prescribed work in lecture room and lab

gree.
."rhe first course in Journalism offered
consisted Of series of lectures given

dents. The course, similar to those es-
tablished in other universities, had no
dean or guiding spirit. The lectures

when a member of the reporting class
comes to work each day he is expected
to bring with him some suggestion for
a news or feature story or such q story
already prepared. He may then be sent
out to cover political meeting, a lee
ture, q foot ball game. debate or an
accident. He learns the importance Of
accuracy; he comes to know the Inn
portance OF details and is trained. to rec
ognize news when he sees It, Then he
gets practice in putting his material into
an interesting, simply told story. But
this is not all the student can get from
his course in journalism. He becomes
familiar with the work Of a copy reader.
A teacher Is head OF the copy desk. He
distributes the copy, sees that II is read,
offers suggestions as to good and bad
usage of English. directs the writing of
head lines and cuts out unimportant parts
of stories.
.'The news stories. editorials, reprint
and feature stories which are the work
of one day are printed every afternoon
in the University Missourian. This is q

in small towns of the country. An effort
is made to make it as local as possible,
