A You wanta know how to run a newspaper according to a news item on the front page of the Daily Batt of March 9. Frdnkly you need some help. I have often wondered what kind of blackmail you use to keep tHe circulation up. 1 f i* 1 ; Anyhoo here is “How I Would Run The Battalion If I were Editor”: . A ' • ( 1 1. Fire the entire staff from the top of the steps on the second floor of Goodwin Hall southwest to the back of the teletype machine which was, the last time I visited the Batt office, backed against the wall. \ i ! J V A 2. Immediately take a trip to. Bryan to Mrs. Orr's kindergarten and recruit some reporters with a high mentality to improve the type of stories carried in the Batt. That, my dear editor, is how I think the Batt should be rum ! [: Gripingly yours, WI T. HAYS— P. S. After I had the above letter written I am getting scared that I will not win the prize, because l have been informed by a usually reliable source that your staff ! s'I. Q. would be almost if not equal to a group of kindergarten students; and that ^ny suggestions are the way thp Batt is run every day; I ai i very disappointed because I thought my suggestions would be some|hing new to you and your staff. Disappointedly yours, W. T. H. The contest for this week will end at midnight Sunday, March 14.
