The conference began at 9:00 a.m,, registration having been from 8:30 to 9:00. The first speaker was Mr. George Brand, managing editor of the Redding Record Search- light, who spoke on news .stories and editorials. He said, The pur- pose of a news story is first to inform the readers, second, to' entertain. The 'second speaker, Mr. Jack Robertson, printer and former newspaper editqr, spoke on head- lines and layouts. During his talk he also emphasized the im- portance of meetihg deadlines in putting out a newspaper. Mr. William Lee, managing ed- itor of the Chlco Bmterprlse 'Rec- ord, gave an interesting talk on of the Red ,Bluff Daily News. His topic was Write It Right. Wilson emphasized putting the five W's and the H into the first paragraph or two of a news story. The five W's and the I-I are Who, Wlhatv Wh1y, When, Where and How. The! ast para- graphs contaln less pertinent facts and are not absolutely necessary to the story. He said, By doing this, if the story has to be cut down, the last para- graph could be out off and the story would still contain all tho, important facts Mr. Wilson also discussed the importance of qualification. I-Ie said that quotes made a story, more interesting, but that it was absolutely necessary to get them quotation and who said lt cor- rect. If you don't put down who made the statement, he said, then the paper is left open for a libel suit. Four schools, Enterprise, Red frm- U. I 'Y ml! 11 the lm me imc , fx gy-A. .. . W ,,,, q , ....
