History:

Nebraska, such as Grand Island and North Platte. NHSPA oversaw the Silver Key
contests that showcased winners in advertising, editing, newswriting, photograph,
and work on yearbooks. These contests were renamed the Nebraska Journalism
Championships. The association also held business meetings and workshops for its
membership.
