Anyway it was the year David Ling was Editor of Ad Astra, and BC, JK and I (then in Form 4) were all on the editorial committee.
I was also able to get my hands on a few copies of past Ad Astra magazines from our time, thanks to Leo and some friendly staff of the St Joe office. Looking through them certainly brings back sweet memories.
It was also amazing what we could do before the age of personal computers, desktop publishing software and digital cameras. When we said "cut and paste", we REALLY meant cut (with scissors) and paste (with glue) :-)
Anyway, here are some covers from the 70s ...
Sorry, some of them are in black & white ... only got photocopied versions. But will replace them as and when I have the coloured versions.
I also remember the "Fourth Former's Magazine" that I was editor of, back in 1975 when we were in the supposed honeymoon year of Form 4. That was a fun experience. Another publication I worked on was the Interact Club magazine ... can't remember if it was 1975 or 76. Hey, what can I say ... I like writing, lah.
Anybody still have one of those somewhere in your storeroom ? I'd sure love to have a copy.
