Wilson Press Finishes Great Season Back in September, 1940, a Wilson College Press was ready for the students during the first week of school. Carry- ing on with the tradition set up by many previous staffs, this staff gave its all to making the paper a real school leader. Headed by Don Wangerow, the Press had a very successful semester, and in January, 1941, all eyes were turned toward the future, to a new year and a new Press. A streamlined Press, was the cry when in February, 1941, Leslie E. Waller took over the duties of editor-in-chief of the paper. Waller began his reform activities by inaugurating a new edi- torial board with several new positions, omitting some of the old ones. Then, at an editorial conference, a new format was chosen, giving Wilson a paper of five pages — an oddity in itself. The most sensational addition to the paper was the new picture page. Sched- uled to run regularly on page five, it has been managed by Milt Kandl. The first page was transformed into a bulle- tin page, with Al Glass editing. The inside pages were given over to edito- rials, sports, news, and clubs. Handling these pages were Joe Cullinane, Charles Peterson, Mary McCaffery, Francis X. Lopez, and Joan Kelley. The new paper, strictly cosmopolitan in composition and management, soon made a definite hit with the students. Even as the Wilsonites might dash to get the latest issue of the Daily T ews, so do they dash for the Press every Wednesday. The Press gives Wilson the news and editorials that Wilson wants, in characteristic Wilson fashion. There ' s no denying that the Press is an integral part of the metropolis of Wilson. The Press has taken its place in the lives of Wilson, and the lives of Wilson have taken their places on the pages of the Press. 92 Don Wangeiow Editor-in-Chief ' 40 Leslie E.
