One of these concerned the days when exhibitionists umuld jump from high bridges, then gain book ing in Some local theater op the strength of the publicity for the stunt. Qne such daredevil came to San Francisco with the idea of leaping j from the Oakland Bay bridge, ; then capitalizing on the free publicity. 11 State authorities, however, had a different idea and said no soap When he requested permis sion for the Jump. Enough people used such methods to end their life without having to he spur red on! by professionals, claimed the officials. One San Franciico paper, never theless, saw iq the affair a good chance for an exclusive utory with pictures, The would-bp hlgh-divor agreed With the papef to perform the stunt, The pluii culled for a panel truck to lake the exhibit ionist tji the jumping ;off point of the bridge beneath which there was to he a tug-boat loaded with a battery ; of photographers and re- potters ready to rush m story hack to the office, The Chronicle distioveied the scheme iand set a plan of their own Into nctlnn In an effort to scoop their rival, A Chronicle tug-boat was loaded with photographers and reporters. whilq a second tug-boat Went opt to the other paper's craft and tolq the newsmen that there had beein a change in plans. Under the impression that the scene of the jump had been changed to a point about a mile and a naif far ther down the bridge, !the first tug steamed off. The Chronicle tug, meanwhile, took up the vigil at the original point of action and was on hand when the dare-devil leaped. A contrary gust oLwiiid disrupted the jujnper’s line of fall and he broke his back when he hit the water.; The Story and pictures were on the fropt page of the next edition of the Chronicle together with an editorial condemning the “yellow journalism” tactics of the rival paper which caused the poor mis guided dare-devil to be crippled for several] months. Fitzpatrick left the San Fran cisco paper in 1939 and found him self a few years later, in the army at the age of 38. Despite his quali fications for the public relations divisiori, he spent three long years as an infantry man. Following his discharge he took a job in Dallas Working with the motor transpox-t division of a bus company. Eighteen months ago, he came to A&M and assumed his present job which consists of teaching courses in more efficient operation of all types of motor fleets.
