State KepuDcian Leaders TO Name
Penrose Successor
Washington, Jan. 4-State Repub-
lican leaders forecast early action In
filling vacancies and making commit
tee changes resulting from the death
of Senator Penrose. It was expect
ed that Senator Brandegee, Of Con-
necticut, chairman Of the committee
on committees, would issue a call
soon, probably by the end Of the
week, for meeting Of the commit
tee to act on necessary changes.
The rule Of seniority has been
strictly adhered to in the senate and
there were no indications that a pre-
cedent would be established by vary
ing from the long grounded practice.
Committee selections, however, are
largely in the hands Of the powerful
committee on committees.
With the practical certainty that
Senator McCumber, Of North Dako-

of the finance committee, over which
Mr.. Penrose had long presided. there

COMMUNITY SERVICE
~ vi Nl----
"Renector" = Named A. Best
Type Of Newspaper
J (Associated Press)

Madison, Wis, Dec. 3O.-
Schools Of journalism are being
called on TO train a new type
Of newspaper worker because of
a new type of Journalism found
in the rising community news
paper, H. F. Harrington, direc-
tor Of the, Joseph Medille
School of Journalism Of North
western University, told the
/ American Association Of Teach
ers Of Journalism here today.
"The community paper is
concerned with community up
building and with advertising
the local merchants as against
the department store owners in
the CITY," Prof. Harrington said.
Although the scope is circum-
scribed, there is just as much
joy In this field as in a larger
one. The community newspaper
is a good deal more intimate,
friendly and folksy than the
big papers.
''For the community news
paper we must train men in the
social outlook so that they rec
ognize the community as their
community and that they have
certain obligations toward it.
That means a collegiate back
ground or a backgroun dof ap-
probation of books, thor
ough knowledge Of the field and
a kind Of love of small town in
stitutions. 1t will also entail
some newspaper craftsmanship
in the technique of the story
and the editorial.
"This knowledge might well
come from school of journal
ism or from some metropolitan
newspaper office, but the hand
ling Of community newspaper
also requires a good deal Of bus
mess sense with experience in
making both ends meet. Not
only must the editor Of a COM
paper be a good editor
and reporter, but he must also
be good business manager.
These are all necessary adjuncts
in the equipment Of successful
community editor"
Here are some papers that
Prof. Harrington cited as out
examples Of good COM
papers:
The Evanston News Index,
the Glencoe News, the Lake
Shore News, the Bronx News,
The Brooklyn Eagle, the Noun
taia Lake News, the Hastings
On the Hudson News, the North
field Minnesota News, and the
