McNaught Syndicate

Journalism Meeting
V. V. McNitt, owner of the Mc-
Naught newspaper syndicate, talk-
ed to members of the departizient
of Journalism at 9 o'clock Monday-
morning.
Mr. McNitt discussed the qualifi-
cations of the managing editor and
business manager of the small town
daily newspaper. He stated that be-
sides good training in Journalism
at a good school, the ability to
make friends among the towns-
people was essential. He expressed
the opinion that the newspaper
man who exploited only his paper
was of no use in a town of 15 to 20
thousand inhabitants.
Mr. McNitt came from his New
York offices in the Times building
to consider securing a managing
editor and business* editor for a
small daily he is planning t6 estab-
lish in the East.

try.
t The Hellenic society was organ-
ized in the fall of 1928 and was
r'ecognized by the University in the
spring of 1930. Membership Is open
only to students of Hellenic de-
scent after they present a satisfac-
tory scholastic record.
There are 13 members at present.
The officers are Alexander N. Davis,,

Although the number of lecturers
remains the same as in last year's
series, but smaller than in previous
years, the speakers are of a much
higher calibre, Moser said. This, he
explaihed, was in keeping with the
policy adopted by' the association
approving a smaller number of
speakers but selecting only those
who were outstanding.

Answers to Automobile
Questions Are Varied
EVANSTON, Ill., May 27.-(P)-
There was an expression of pain
on the face of Frank Kremly of
the bureau of accident prevention
Tuesday.
The cause was the answer given
by one of more than 300 women
who took a written examination on
the theory of automobile driving,
which is expected to qualify ther
as either front or back seat drivers.
"What are the major parts of the
ignition system?" was the question.
"The choke, the speedometer,
heat, dil guage, gas guage, lights,
starter, accelerator, clutch and the
brake," was one answer.
