Scope and content
In January of 1949, twenty journalism students at Lincoln High School were hard at work planning for the day that they would take over the production of the Tacoma Times. They were going to be completely responsible for gathering news, meeting copy deadlines, selling advertising, setting type and running the huge rotary presses for the five daily editions of the paper published on February 8th. Four Tacoma high schools, Lincoln, Stadium, Clover Park, and Bellarmine, were scheduled to spend one day at The Times, gaining practical experience in all aspects of the newspaper business. (T. Times, 1/23/49, p. 29).
