. PEOPLE MAKE NEWS ... % * EVENTS MAKE NEWS . . Your best sources most probably will be officials of your organization However, covering the news amounts to more than just taking facts from limited sources. News is , CREAMED from two general areas: PEOPLE and EVENTS! In many instances, the PEOPLE that make up your club will be more - valuable * news sources than the club officers. Watch for sidelights and features that will make good news copy One of your meiSSfcers may earn some unusual honor, not necessarily connected with the club. Another may receive a letter from a distant friend that •would be worth sharing * Perhaps one has grown the largest rhododendron, baked the biggest cake, or entered a painting in a national competition. Such things are well worth a story. • The events that make news are cojuparalively easy to find. A dance, a benefit/a picnic, an athletic contest, or a film showing is story material. An election of officers in your organization is an event of particular interest because it also involves PEOPLE. Perhaps the most important i principal in news gathering of any sort is ACCURACY,. If you feel that a number, a date or a street address might be , even slightly wrong, check It thoroughly You, should take seriously the responsibility you have for the accuracy of your stories - because a newspaper editor must be confident that what ypu report is correct. Few editors have time to check the facts submitted to them. They rely upon the efficiency of the ► reporter. The first time you mention the name of an organization, give it in full.

sure you spell the organization’s name correctly. BE ACCURATE: BE CAREFUL: BE SURE! BE SURE to put your name and address on the storyupper left comer. AVOID adjectives and the glowing tribute, If it takes more than a page to tell, better read the story over carefully and do a little editing of your own. Duplications do creep in. CHECK AGAIN: See that the day and date are correct and that you tell the time of the event. LET THE EDITOR on his staff write the headline, they know what type will fill. IF YOU MUST send a carbon. make sure it is legible. No note or letter is necessary. THERE ISN’T always enough room for every story to run full length. On news stories that don’t fit when the pages are made up. the latter part is whacked off. Usually the editor feels that it’s more fair to iekve out a little of every story than to leave out some stories completely. Next week: 'Names.^Names.'

News From Outer Space

By Perse polls J. Throckmorton Morgantroyd (Ed. Note—Mr. Morgantroyd has recently completed a special Intensive six months course in Teletak at the Brillig Institute, Loblam, Venus. Teletak is the Venusian system of communications which the Venusian government has recently undertaken to teach selected Earthlings so that cultural and trade relations might be established between the people of Earth and the people of * Venus. The Venusians,* being several million years further advanced in technology than Earthlings, can communicate with each other in words, pictures, or thoughts, instantaneously, and can read the minds of inhabitants of all planets! In order for an Earthling to receive commmunications in teletak. however, he must study at least the short course at Brillig. Mr. Morgantroyd is the first Earthling to complete this course, and the Journal is proud to present his column—the first communication from outer space to be published anywhere on Earth!) It's no secret how I happened to go to Venus, nor how I happen now to be writing for the Journal. It was all planned by people who are so much further advanced than we, that it reminds me of a boy playing win an ant. It all started out in the uranium country, in Colorado. I was walking from my claim back to the jeep when I saw this flying saucer zipping

around overhead. Jtt landed not fifty feet from me, and I cautiously walked toward it to investigate. As I neared its edge I noticed a small opening on its surface, out of which a bell-like voice came, saying. “Please step inside.” I don’t know why, but I squeezed the opening into a ciiwviar space about ten feet in diameter, and six feet high, with perfectly smooth walls of some sort of metal. As soon as I had entered, the opening closed and the same bell-like voice said “Do not be afraid. We know this is a new experience for you. There is no other person aboard, this craft. You are now on your, way to the “Light of Venus,” the official ship of the Venusian Earth-Study Program. We are orbiting your planet about 30.000 miles out. Upon arrival, you may decide whether to visit with us further, or return to where you were picked up.” I had felt no motion, and of course, could not see out. ‘ In not more than 4 or 5 minutes, the door of the / hatch slid open and I stepped out into what seemed to be a large lobby of some sort, but with no windows or furnishings. And then I saw my first Venusian. He was shaped about the same as we are, but couldn’t have been more than three He wore what looked liKf a suit of gaudy, many-colored pajrfmas. and had a sort of football helmet on his head. The most bizarre thing about this scene was not so much his appearance, but

the fact that he came toward me WITHOUT WALKING. His feet were gust a few inches off the floor, so that he was suspended in the air, but he moved straight toward me at about running speed. “Welcome to the Light of Venus. Mr. Morgantroyd.” he said. NEXT WEEK: THE VENUSIANS. ' Every child in the United SCates is entitled to a good education, and it will be profitable for the nation to do something about the Job.
