ROOM ON PAPERS
FOR COLLEGE MEN
Don't Try to Fool the People or
Your Boss" is Advice of
Chicago Editor.

college Men in Journalism" was
the subject of an address given yes
terday TO the students of the school Of
Journalism at Notre Dame by Harvey
Woodruff, sporting editor of the Chi
cagO Tribune. Mr.. Woodruff spoke of
the opportunities of college men in
newspaper work and then went into
detail concerning some very essen
tial qualities of good journalists.
With regard TO college men engaged
in newspaper work, the Tribune man
stated that, when he began work on
the old Chicago Times Herald fifteen
years ago, business men and partic-
ularly newspaper men were preju-
diced against young men coming from
the colleges. The constant increase
in the number and Importance Of
technical schools. however, have
broken down this hostile attitude
against college men, and at the pres
ent time the majority of the Tribune's
staff are college graduates or men
who have been to college.
Mr.. Woodruff laid down four cardi-
nal precepts by which young Journal
lists should be guided. BE accurate"
he said. don't try TO fool the people
or your boss; be alert for feature
stories, and don't look for a snap job
or be afraid to take a small job
