The Executive Committee was originally in charge of most of the content that was submitted to the editor for printing. In later years, the YM-YWHA's Publication Committee took over responsibility for producing the newspaper. It was mailed out, free of charge, to the YM-YWHA. membership until around 1978, when the paper ended.
Scope and Content
This sub-series consists of Y-Time newspapers produced by the YM-YWHA. The newspapers are organized by year, generally with six-to-ten issues per year. There are also some bound volumes of the periodicals.
There are several missing issues, particularly from the years between 1936 and 1951. There is also some duplication between the bound issues and the loose issues, both of which have been kept due to the uniqueness of the record.
