Shelley Stasson, by winning the
Oak Park Frost Junior High
School Spelling Bee, became a
second-generation spelling cham-
pion.
Her mother, concert pianist and
teacher Betty Kowalsky (Mrs.
Jerome Stasson)
was the winner
exactly 25 years
ago of the Edgar
Guest School
Spelling Bee in

List for Scholas-
tic achievement. She also plays the
violin in the Oak Park High School
Orchestra and in the Shaarey
Zedek Youth Orchestra.
Shelley's father is Jerome Stas-
son, fine arts department head at
Eastern High School and conductor
its city room three years ago. Only
last year was the constitution
amended to permit women on the
editorial managing board.
Eleanor opted for the rigors of
reporting for a daily covering the
entire university rather than for
the biweekly paper at the women's
college. She worked her way up
to the academic affairs beat, win-
ning the Nicholas McKnight Jour-
nalism award, and finally into the
number three post.
For the next year Eleanor will
be in charge of editorial policy,
deciding what subject will come
before the managing board of the
paper and writing the bulk of the
opinion pieces.
Eleanor was aware of university
life long before she entered Barn-
