When, as of INDOOR SPORTS ten happens the number of typo graphical errors in 57,04)0 characters printed on a page can be counted on the fingers of oi.e hand, the achieve ment is a marvel. The same is true of the contents of what Is printed. Misstatements of fact there are inevitably in every is sue of every newspaper, but how few these are and how unimportant In the main when the conditions are taken Into account! The average city rep regentatlv* of it paper like the News Leader interviews dozens of people during the course of a morning and must never show the pressure of time in talking with any of them. He re turns to his office before noon and writes at breakneck speed from scanty notes the substance of what he has gathered during the morning. Occa sionally he makes an error, but in the vast majority of all cases, despite his burry, the errors attributed to him are made by those who give him informa tion. Indeed, it would be well for some of those who critieize the inac curacy of newspaper writers to try lor a single morning the task a news paper reporter accomplishes every day.
