    Judge Comment: Layout is appealing and draws in reader. I especially liked the lilac page. There is no reason newspapers can't dress up and the designer accomplished that.

    Judge Comment: Simple yet attractive. Normally would not encourage copy to be laid out at a slant, but the green page worked. Also liked the black page and the way information was boxed to make it easier for the reader to access.
  • Place Name: Third Place
    Contestant Name: Fargo/Moorhead - The Forum
    Entry Title: Ashelin Rose Harbinger Design Portfolio

    Judge Comment: Nice looking pages. Still don't like the never ending lines on the deck heads. Think they should be limited to three lines.
  • Competition Comment: None
