1912 Macon High School 

The Tiger Newspaper

The Tiger was founded March 10, 1910, by Chester Chope and John Riley, two members of the class of '13.

It was published weekly during the remainder of the school year. With the second issue the size of the Tiger was increased from two columns to three columns, this being the size of the present  publication.

Beginning with school term of 1911-12 the Tiger was continued with the following staff: Editor-in-chief, Chester Chope; associate editor, Miss Alma Walker; business manager, George Holvey; literary editor, John Pile; athletic editor, Chas. Dorrel.

At the end of the first semester the Tiger was discontinued, but was re-established several weeks later. At a meeting of the boys' Student Council the following staff was elected; Editor-in-chief: Joseph Stone; associate editor, Will Miller; contributing editor, Otelia Mosty; athletic editor, Chas. Dorrel; circulation manager, Joe Love; business manager, Edgar Burkhart; faculty editor, Miss Alma Walker.

The Tiger is a newsy little paper and the High school students should give it their heartiest support.
