'U' Journal isi Majors Take
Future Careers Seriously
Gum-chewing, fuzzy-brained reporters are strictly for the movies,
as far as the University's journalism department is concerned.
Learning the tricks and techniques of sound writing is a serious
business for the 154 fledgling journalists over at Haven Hall.
* * * *
Their last two undetgraduate years are packed with activity.
Besides balanced class work in the social sciences, humanities and
journalism, they integrate their studies through the writing, editing
and composing of the Michigan Journalist, an experimental newspaper
which rolls off the presses monthly.
Journalism concentrates also attend frequent University
lectures in journalism, meetings and coffee hours. For two weeks
each semester, they trek down to the composing room of the
Ann Arbor Daily News after regular classes, where they spend
their evenings learning the practical aspects of putting a news-
paper together.
During their undergraduate days, these students take courses in
community newspaper work, law of the press, critical writing and
reviewing and advertising, all aimed towards giving them a
comprehensive view of the various phases of publications work.
AFTER GRADUATION, many return for graduate work in the
department. At present, 23 students are studying in the department's
graduate school. Four of them are European students doing post-
doctoral work in the field. Two of these are now serving internships
on daily newspapers in the state.

THE FACULTY-Composition of the University's journalism department changes from year to
year. A nucleus of permanent faculty members provides necessary continuity within the department,
while visiting instructors and lecturers supply fresh insight on the various phases of practical
journalism. The influx and outgo of newsmen makes it possible for the department to provide work
in such varied fields as pictorial journalism and advertising copy-writing. The present faculty of the
department includes, seated left to right, Prof. Donal H. Haines, Prof. Wesley H. Maurer, chairman,
visiting lecturer Laurence Prakken and Prof. Edmund Wooding. Standing, left to right, are visiting
lecturer Karl F. Zeisler, Dean C. Baker, visiting lecturer Waldo McNaught and Elwood Lohela.

INFORMATION, PLEASE-An integral part of any department
is provided by the secretary's office. Ably filling the posts in -the
journalism depairtmnent are Helen Gregory, right, and Mrs. Mar-
jorie Luce, center. Miss Gregory is shown supplying information
to Robert Bailyn, Grad., while Mrs. Luce operates the mimeograph
machine. Knowing the ins and outs of the department is second
nature to Miss Gregory, who graduated from the University in
journalism in 1948.

COPY EDITING-With the arrival this year of an AP teletype machine a new faculty member was
added to the journalism department staff to instruct students in its use. He is visiting lecturer
Arthur Gallagher, telegraph editor of the Ann A.bor News. The large copy desk shown above pro-
vides the atmosphere of a big city newsroom for Gallagher's classes. Copy from the AP teletype
machine supplies material for the students to practice copy reading, editing, rewriting and headline
writing. In classes such as this, aspiring journalists learn the techniques and tricks of the trade
which they will later embody in their laboratory newspaper, The Michigan Journalist. In the picture
above, Gallagher conducts a class in teletype editing. Since AP copy comes over the wire written
entirely in capital letters, a large part of the editor's job is to mark it for proper capitalization.
They are also expected to check spelling and style.

'U' Law Students Will Assist
In Planned Local Legal Clinic

Establishment of a Legal Aid
Clinic which would provide law,
services for Ann Arbor towns-
people unable' to afford regular
assistance may soon be realized.
Under the supervision of a local
lawyer, the clinic would also give
University law students opportun-
ity to become acquainted with the,
research, leg work and writing of
'various legal documents connect-
ed with "charity" cases.
THE CLINIC WOULD BE op-
erated by the Legal Aid Commit-
-tee of the Law Students Associa-
tion in conjunction with the local
Bar Association which has ap-
pointed a special committee to
consider the proposal.
Purpose of the Law Students
Association (LSA) is to promote
and coordinate all extra-curric-
ular activities of the Law School.
As a charter member of the
American Law Student Associa-
tion, LSA is now engaged in a
nation-wide program.

a membership of 48 approved law

Upham III, '50L, a vice-president
of the sixth judicial circuit.

paper, which will come under the
jurisdiction of LSA, have recently
been launched.

School is assisting students with
organization of the newspaper
which will not be an official pub-
lication of the Law School.

FUTURE HUCKSTERS-In step with the times, the journalism
department added an advertising expert to its staff this year-
Prof. Edmund Wooding. Prof. Wooding brings to his new post
practical know-how in the field from experience with a New York

of ad copy to Allen Numore, '50, far left, and Berdan Peck, '50,
for their classes in advertising public relations.

partment's four foreign students

ment. The student is Hanns M.
