Of Campus Paper
The Satui-day afternoon wind
whistled around the corners of
Carnegie Hall. Ho sound could toe
heard coming from the hews
room, except the humdrum rou
tine of a reporter’s interview.
Then an unmusical door opened
and three men stalked into the
room. They stood there, silhou
etted against the doorway and
asked for “someone from Colle
gian.”
The reporter was only a lowly
reporter, she explained, hut could
she help, huh? It was too bad.
Three members of the staff of 'the
Pitt News in; Pittsburgh dropped
in ah the Collegian arid only a
reporter was there to greet them.
But in spite of this, it must b.e
noted that Jack Bloom, business
manager, Larry BOndy, sports
editor, and -Lowell Lubjs, sports:
Reporter, were favorably im
pressed with the professional ap
pearance of the news room.
“Gee, we have only four type
writers!” the sports reporter
gaped as he gazed fbndljf' at the
dozen and a half . typewriters
which sat placidly bn the tables
next to the walls. Apparently, he
didn’t'catch the'murderous glint
in ’’the eyes of his superiors.
“That'horseshoe table is really
something!” he ’continued. “And
you should see how small our of
fices are compared to yours.”

'Subsequent Prisoner of War in

low losses of our aircraft and
naval units, gave evidence that
radar counter-measures had l play
ed an important part in the suc

quently all squadrons of the
United States Strategic Air Forces

analysis indicated that radar coun
