Hick Bindley, editor of “Tm^
Duncanville Daily Disgrace,” sat
■slouched in his swivel chair. His
feet were propped up; oh the an
tique roll-top desk which was clut
tered with clippings, [ ptiste, and
several volumes, of Shakespeare.
A fopl-smelltng, oversized meer
schaum pipe was clamped firmly
between Hick’s teeth and a well-
chewed, black pencil protruded
from behind his right ear.
j i jVh, yes. Hick presented the
perfect picture of a crusading ■
journalist. And a crusading jour-
aalist he was, too.

a matter of fact, Hick had more
'character than gray matter. It
TbOK character to stay with a
newspaper whose circulation had
droppetkfrom 2000 to 250 since he
had takeh\over sis eilitor. Just be
cause Duncanville was a farming
community was no reason why
farm news shoiiid be published in
the “Daily Disgrace*” Hick argued.

The community had, plenty of
cotton, corn, turnips, pnd boll

thought the readers should have.
To give the subscribers what they

had announced the piano regital

publish a Department of Agricul

Thia left Hick and a few culture-

of Duncanville. And how could a
crusading journalist crusade when
there was nobody left to crusade? ?
So now, Hick was looking for
greener pastures. He picked up a
telegram from his desk. The! tele
