the one showing the most improve
ment during the year. While it is
primarily for the underclassmen
anyone can enter It by arranging
with me for a trial.
"There will be a measurement
taken that will be very broad In its
scope. It will be graded on the me
tric system with a thousand as a
standard. It will not necessarily bt
an athlete who wins It as It will he
for the greatest improvement. The
greater part of the count comes in
•ho college work and regular at
tendance at gym. classes. For in
stance gymnasium attendance will
count 100, chest development wll
count 90, college work 130, and sc
on down the lino. The leser things
such as the condition of the blooc

true of society,” he said, "and it
would be most regretable if carried

regard of other forces necessary for

W. A. DILL TALKS
TO JOURNALISTS
REGISTER NIGHT EDITOR
SPEAKS ON “MAKING FIG.
URES TALK”
MAKING STORIES READABLE
Experienced Newspaper Man
Tells Students How Facts
Are Printed With Fancy
Dressing to Attract Readers.
William A. Dill, night editor of
the Morning Register, spoke to the
combined classes of Journalism Fri
day afternoon on the subect of
“Making Figures Talk.”
He said that there are two classes
of newspaper, one, like the yellow
journals, printing only what the peo
ple want, and the other printing
what the people need for their in
struction and betterment. The larg
er part of newspapers strike a happy
medium by making the news that
the people need1 also what they want,
by the proper presentation of the
facts—the ‘‘sugar-coating of the
pill.”
Municipal statistics such as tax
receipts, reports of warrants and
warrants and bonds, and revenues
rather repell the average reader if
they are stated only in tabulated
form without being animated *• by
some device of writing. Such statis
tics might be made readable by ac
centuating some particular phase of
the report,* and bringing about some
comparison that is tangibly grasped
like the statement that Dane coun
ty’s timber if cut and laid in a strip
would reach round the world".
Other ways to tell statistical facts
in an interesting manner are to sum
in one statement, to use diagrams
and pictures, an dto give the names
of the persons connected with the
Report, as the city treasurer’s name.
Also, the who, what, where, when,
how should be given in eVery story.
