‘“T was surprised” a friend of ours
(said this week, “that you didn't have
anything in‘ Post ‘Scripts about Bill
McColum.” We were a little surprised
ourselves, not because we hadn't at-
| tempted such an ambitious task, but
{because the passing of William Mec-
‘Collum caused such a timid ripple in
ithe profession to which he had given
{his life.
Bill McCollum was more than a man
to us, even more than a good news-
! paperman. He was an influence, a!
symbol of something that is danger-
{ously near extinction in newspaper
work. We did not write anything about
his death last week because we hoped
that among the hundreds of better
| newspapermen who had loved Bill Mc- |
Collum there would be someone who
| would write the story McCollum de- |
{served. Or perhaps McCollum, who
valued space, would understand why no
one wasted words on his passing. For
jus it was a significant commentary
upon the ephemeral quality of news-
‘papers and newspapermen.
Our acquaintance with Bill McCol-
lum dates from the very day we began |
newspaper work, for he reigned over
| his teletype machine in a cubbyhole
{hard by the dingy city room in the old
[Record building the day we were given
|a desk there. Later we were privileged
[to have a desk close by his and occa-
| sionally sit in early morning sessions
during which he recounted some of his
favorite tales, one about “Hard Times
[In Kansas” being, as we remember it,
| the favorite at such gatherings.
We can remember that it was a sur-
prise to us to learn that Bill, besides
writing his fantastic tales about high-
doings in Espy and his “Diamond
Dust” paragraphs, also edited the rib-
| bon of Associated Press copy which
[was continually being disgorged by the
jteletype machine, wrote the headlines
{for that copy and dummied the front
| page. A fascinating thing about Bill's
Jcopy to a youngster who had never
seen a newsroom without typewriters
was that McCollum spurned the ma-
chine and wrote his copy in longhand,
with an underslung “x” for a period.
We can even remember - the violent
shade of the green ink he used.
It is unfortunate that some artist did
not preserve. Bill's likeness, on Some
summer night when his collar and tle
were ripped off, his shirt tail was sag-
ging in the back and his grey hair was
pointing in half a dozen directions.
Bill seldom was without a piece of yel-
low copy paper in his hand and when
something went wrong the air along
his course smelled of fire and brim-
stone.
There are many kind things McCol-
lum did for us so we can assume that,
in a quiet way, he was doing such
things for others. Even after his un-
fortunate retirement from active news-
| paper work, four or five years ago, we
{never thought of him as anything but
a newspaperman and when we met
him we waited impatiently until he
had completed his discourse on tulips
so we could get his opinion on any
problem we had. Tulips, incidentally,
became a feverish passion with Bill
when he laid down his eye-shade. He
seemed prouder of the silver bowls he
won at flower shows than of those
four-decked headlines he used to write
without breaking the thought.
We can report. now that Bill never
did stop writing, even though what he
wrote was not published. A friend told
us this week that his family has a
batch of copy which McCollum must
have written from habit. Looking over
it, our friend found a piece Bill had
written about The Dallas Post. When
we heard that we knew ‘we would
write something about Bill, even
