I El . 1?- T 1 111 F ' T what M PUBLICATIONS , 4 1' The Beanpot Did you ever experience the wild hopes that some day you might be able to invade the sanctity ol' the giggle factory, otherwise known as the Beanpot office? The Syllabus write-up expert decided to show the rest of' us mortals that the chefs of' the Beanpot are almost as normal as the rest ofthe students. Accordingly, we ventured down in Pi Alley, where both the News and the Beanpot are located, and this is what we saw. ,ln one corner of' the office sat Buss Norton, the Managing Editor, growling about the tardiness ol' the contributors incoming through with the copy for the next issue. As an ardent reader of Vanity Fair and Smart Sei, .Buss is the living model ol' What the Well Dressed Man Should Wear. We suspect, however, that Buss gets his material for the Beanpot from Conf'essions.', Next we saw .Lloyd Dixon, Business Manager ol' Beanie. Beside being engaged in the business of' publishing Beanie, and publishing a good Beanie, it is rumored that Lloyd has his lighter moments at Simmons. ln the corner opposite from Buss sat Alvah Wheeler, the really big man of' the Beanpot and Advertising Manager off Beanie. Due to his experience in the Clee Club, Al was showing the benefits derived by 'teaching his advertising heelers the famous Moxie song for Frank .Archer ol' that Company. 'Lewie Maker, the Circulation Manager of' Beanie, was sitting in a corner with a rather worried expression on his face. lt developed that ,Lewic had been holding his hand on his pulse to find out whether his circulation had been increasing. On our right was .H.am,' Fish, the Art Editor, engaged in drawing a big long breath. Ham draws figures for the Beanpot, and due to his swimming ability, Ham draws feminine figures at the shore. Between the Managing Editor and the Business 'Manager is a desk which is always hidden from view by the rest of' the staff. This is the Trcasurer's desk, and flilenry Stafford always has a group around him. This is not due to his popu- larity, but due to the fact that the rest don't trust him. Uncasy is the head that keeps the books. We were beginning to wonder whether the Beanpot was a stag publication, when in walked Miss Henrietta Perkins and Miss Lillian Lehmann. Miss Perkins comes from the College off Liberal Arts, and she certainly is quite liberal in her vcrse and wise cracks. Lillian is an inmate of' T. Lawrence Davis's harem, but she is a member of' the stall' and, as such, 'there still is hope for her. At the only remaining desk in the office sat lzzie Siegel and Lord Iclowielies Lord, lzzie was busily at work writing a letter home to papa, describing his latest experiences at school, while Sam had some thing-a-ma-jig on the desk and was experimenting with his latest invention. Some day we hope he will invent something which will keep us oll' Probation. Behind a pile ol' magazines from all the other colleges in 'thc county we catch a glimpse ol' Charlie Johnson, the boy heartbreaker ol' the Beanpot. Charlie is a good, business man and believes in the age old saying, Fair exchange is no robbery. There were numerous other supcrnumeraries scattered hither and yon, but we are limited. to space, and il' you wish to discover the rest, just buy the next Beanie and gaze lovingly at the masthead. With a stall' such as this, is it any wonder that the Beanpot has become one ol' the foremost College Comics of 'thc country. 24-3

6 Y - N.-nsq 1 PUBLICATIONS K , T I Boston I niversity News The News, which is the official chronicler ol' events in or connected with the University, has in the past two years grown from a four-page issue, which made earnest but not altogether successful attempts to record events ol' all departments, to an eight-page paper, which ranks with the best college weeklies in the country. When the University authorities granted the extension of the subscription included with the tuition to the other departments in the University. the News was immediately enlarged to include a regular eight-page issue, and every' ell'ort was made to develop an efficient system of news gathering which would adequately provide for all departments. The development of such a system was by no means an easy task, but the News now has a stall' which is not only capable of, but which actually does cover everything ol' interest in the University. Under the system now in vogue, the News has in addition to its regular stall' of reporters and editors, a departmental editor in each department ol' the llni- versity. As a further means ol' assuring the adequate gathering ol' the news, the editorial department has, with the assistance ol' several of its department editors, arranged l'or cooperation between these editors and the members ol' the Press Clubs and other literary organizations in the various departments. The Iinal authority in all matters is t.he Publisher, Prof. llfarry B. Center. head ol' the Journalism Department at C. IB. A... but the actual active head is the Managing Editor who decides on the selection of news material, plans the make-up ol' the paper as well as lays out its general policy. He is also the general director ol' the entire editorial stal'l'. Theodore L. Southack, Jr., is the Managing liditor this year. The business department is supervised by Prof. Charles li. iliellatty who assists in the making up of the advertising copy and dummies. .lose A. Mayoral is the business manager in charge this year, while Charles C. Johnson is assistant. business manager. ' The handling ol' copy and the assignment of reports devolvcs on a news editor who not only has charge of the special reporters, but supervises the making out ol' the regular assignments. LaFayette L. Marcliand is the news editor in charge during this current school year. There are also two assistant news editors who are in charge of the copy desk. They' direct the assistant copy readers, write headlines, and edit copy. Then there is the regular stall' of hcelers who do bol.h reportorial work and assist with the copy. These men are trying out for the more important positions l'or the coming year. The news has attempted a rather ambitious program this year, having published three pictorial issues. One in connection with the lf'il'tieth Anniversary Cele- bration: another special pictorial'number containing intimate snaps ol' prominent persons and things about the University, and a third special issue during the .lunior Week. 2445
