INVITATION TEXAS STYLE—A Texas-size ticket to a banquet honoring outstanding men chosen by the United States Junior Chamber of Commerce is presented to Chancellor Franklin D. Murphy. Making the presentation are Robert Carl, center, of Dallas, Tex., director
of Jaycee public relations and Ralph Freed, right, president of the Lawrence Junior Chamber of Commerce. Chancellor Murphy will not attend the Texas meeting because he expects to be in Washington at that time.
UP Washington Head Tells Of Reporters' Methods
Lyle C. Wilson, general manager of the United Press Washington Bureau, spoke on the gathering of news in the capital city to reporting II class students Monday in Flint Hall.
Mr. Wilson described his duties as manager of the Washington Bureau where he heads a staff of 80 reporters covering the capital and described the methods reporters use in gathering the news.
"Before the reporter finishes dictating the bulletin, we have the first few words of the story as far away as Hawaii." Mr. Wilson said.
He said the bureau places great emphasis on speed in news gathering and that as soon as a presidential press conference is over, the reporter "makes a break for a telephone to send bulletins on perhaps three or four major stories."
Four Do Same Story
Mr. Wilson said that accuracy is another important aspect of Washington reporting.
“If a good story breaks on the hill.” Mr. Wilson said, “we know there will be repercussions in Washington somewhere. We usually have four reporters typing separate stories on the same subject. The stories then go to a desk where they are rewritten into a single story by one man.”
In regard to publicity offices and agents, Mr. Wilson said that "there must be some kind of liaison between the major offices and the reporter. If the reporter is not given the wrong facts, there is nothing wrong with publicity."
His visit to the William Allen White School of Journalism and Public Information was a sidelight of his trip to Topeka, his hometown, where he addressed the Topeka Press Club Monday.
Mr. Wilson was accompanied by Ward Colwell, Kansas-Missouri manager for United Press, and Sam Hales, a regional United Press executive from Dallas, Tex.
Cabinet Should Defend Bills
Candidate should be brief. In addressing the Topken Press Club meeting Mr Wilson said that better government would result if cabinet members were required to defend and debate major legislation before Congress.
He said there were some instances when the "separation of the executive and legislative branches of government operates to invite executive irresponsibility."
Mr. Wilson said that such an example occurs when "a president submits to Congress an impossibly complex and numerous program for speedy disposition, or submits a single proposition merely for its political effect."
