Minneapolis Office
& Plant Moves
To New Home
BY Bailee Thomas

Last Friday, moving day for
the SPOKESMAN and RECORD
Err, Minneapolis staff members
were betting among themselves
10 to 2 that this edition of the
paper would be anywhere from a
day to a month getting on the
street.
BY Saturday morning, after the
last truck load of stuff had been
moved, everyone was trying to
solve the age old moving prob
lem-how to make room in a
larger place for things that came
out Of a smaller place.
That's a problem that's still
being worked out at the new Of
fees of the paper.
Most people who have ever
called on the editor, Cecil E.
Newman. have never seen the top
Of his desk. Friday was the first
time that the staff had ever seen
il too. That happened when the
moving men said that IL was
impossible for them to move II
in its natural" state.
Newman must have felt that
his desk would catch cold, be-
cause by the time the van got 10
the new location, the editor was
waiting for them to put his desk
In his office 50 he could load II
up again
The whole point o this is 10
inform any one who might be
under the impression that since
the paper has moved TO new
quarters, they would get a chance
to see the editors desk top, not
to be too disappointed because
the last time the editor saw IL
was 10 years ago when the papers
moved from its original office tc
314 Third Az.
How this paper got out on time
is one Of those things that none
of the staff likes to talk about
but probably out Of habit. they
Just couldn't shake 81 year old
habit.
BY Monday afternoon. after
everyone got used 70 working
around plumbers. electricians and
carpenters, they settled back In
the old routine.
II IL hoped that the work on the
offices. located at 242 Third Az
