PAGE TWO THE BEND BULLETIN, BEND, OREGON MONDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 1948 Election Bureau Of Press Service Ready for Work New York, Nov. 1 IP L. B. Mlckel, U. P. superintendent of bureaus, took a final look at the big room on the 24th floor of U. P.'s New York headquarters today and pronounced the special United Press election bureau "ready to go." A score of teletypes were run ning, dozens of tabulating ma chines were plugged into place, the walls were lined with big, white charts inked in black, red and purple. United Press coverage plans for the election tomorrow were the most extensive the service ever had made. The election bureau covers about 5,000 square feet of floor space 12 stories above the regular u. r. news room, me full elec tion wire system has been in stalled and was tested today. A central news desk manned by the chief editors of the New York and Washington bureaus was in place and desk men were assigned to duty around the clock. System Described The wire system consists of a quadruple trunk wire, the most extensive u. f. ever has set up to handle a special event and probably the biggest network ever used by a press association for one story. Kor election night the transcontinental night trunk and the day double trunk wires have Deen set up paralleling each oth er. They are supplemented by a fourth wire, designed to speed re turns to rne u. r. election bureau for tabulation. On presidential election night every unnea fress man, from president to a string correspon dent gathering returns in a re mote precinct, is on the Job all day and all night until the president of the United States is elected. On election night every one of the 80 bureau managers is at his post speeding returns to the big board In New York for national tabula tion. All U. P.'s 5,000. or more string correspondents are gather ing returns at the precinct poll ing places. Staff writers are welding those returns into dis patches for the nation's newspa pers and. radio stations. Extra tabulators make the charts. Ev erybody has one goal, to tabulate the returns and find out who is elected president and which party is to control congress. Staff Writers Heady To man the special flection bui reau the U. P. Is bringing 21 staff writers and desk men from its Washington bureau Into New York. More reported today and all worked over the week -end. Fifty or more men from the New York staff will handle New York City and New Jersey election cov erage and man the wires and the batteries of tabulating machines. The main leads on the election Tuesday night and Wednesday will be signed by Lyle C. Wilson, U. P.. Washington manager and veteran political writer. Wilson has been writing election leads since Calvin Coolldge won the presidency in 1924. Writers Assigned The main congressional lead for morning newspapers will be writ ten by Sandor S. Klein, chief of U. P.'s house staff. Klein has been a congressional reporter and writ er for 10 years. The main congressional leads for afternoon newspapers will be handled by Raymond Lahr, chief Wallace Planning Talk on Street New York, Nov. 1 lli'i Henry A. Wallace, progressive party can didate for president, planned to wind up his campaign today with a rally, a street corner speech and radio address. He was to speak at a Bronx rally, then talk at the corner of Lexington avenue and 116th street, which the late Mayor Ft roeno uiguaraia regarded as Ms 'lucky corner," and finally end the campaign with a nationwide radio address at 7:30 p.m. PST (ABC).

St. Francis 5 Bearklttens 4 Kenwood 1 Allen 0 1.000 .800 .200 .000 ON TNI An m Saturday morning saw the fi nal games In the grade school cir cuits 1948 schedule. When the smoke of battle cleared, St. Fran cis was firmly entrenched in first place in the league standings, thus assuring themselves of the league championship. The Saints clear-cut title was no easy matter, however, for the 8th grade Bear kittens battled them to a 0-0 tie in this final game. The parochial school lads had turned back the older lads in an earlier affair, however, and it was this margin that assured them of the title. In the other final game Kenwood won Its first victory over Allen in the three years of league play by a narrow 7-6 margin, thus clinch ing third place and shoving Allen Into the cellar for the first time. The Salnt-Bearkitten game was a hard fought affair with both teams driving deep into the other team's territory on several occas ions. Each time, however, de fenses stiffened and neither was able to dent the scoring territory. as usual, bigmuna ana rnomp. son stood out on offense for the 8th graders with Wade and Board- man leading the Saint attack. Wilde for the Bearklttens and Crow and Kelly for the Saints were standouts on defense. Allen Scores First Allen scored first in the second quarter in their game and looked like it would run Kenwood off, the field. St. John- and Gilpin drove down fit-Id in big yardage eatliig gains, i Gilpin went 'pver irorn tne yard line for the'm but his attempted converslon.'kivk was low. . ' In the'second half the complex ion of the game changed and Ken wood dominated the play. Trip- lett, on a bootleg play, went over from the 22 yard line, to score standing up. Brown bucked over lor the conversion to provide the margin of victory. Brown was the leading ground gainer for the west slders. Lloyd and Gentry looked good for Allen on defense of U. P.'s senate staff who has traveled during the campaign with candidate Henry Wallace. Lahr has been covering congress lor live years.

U.S. Newsmen Are Okay Wifh Japanese Workers By Earnest llofoereclit (United I'rew SUtff Curreioiidcnt) Tokyo ill') All Americans in Japan are being watched closely by the Japanese and It appears that American newsmen are mak ing a good impression. We didn't know Just how closely we were being observed until one of the Japanese language papers published an article entitled "U. S. Newsmen Have Stronge Sense of Justice." To get the Information for its article, the newspaper Interview ed Japanese employees working for the three largest American news agencies having offices here. When we translated the Aklta Sakigake story, we found out what our employees and other Japanese think about American correspondents. Here are some of their impressions: 1. "American correspondents are quick-tempered." i. "They are light-footed ana rush out of the room to get news when a story is in the air." 3. "They investigate a matter as minutely as possible." 4. "They smoke and drink these are Inseparable from newspapermen." a. "American correspond e n t s make lots of telephone calls to get all angles of the news." 6. American newspape r m e n have a strong sense of justice. They greatly resent any social evil." 7. "They show great indigna tion at crime and corruption especially in the Japanese govern ment and show indignation at the Japanese people for falling to show enough Indignation." 8. American newsmen have a deep conviction that their news papers are public organs and they feel that they work for the sake Of society."

West Bend Bicycle Shop 707 Columbia 1696-J None of the names of the Jap anese employees of American news agencies was revealed. Hence, it can be assumed that they talked freely. They were identified in the story as Mr. A, Mr. B, Mr. C and so on. When I tried to find out which United Press employees had par ticipated in the round-table dis cussion of American correspon dents, I got only a lot of smiles. ' Expressing his ideas on Amer lean newsmen, Japanese employee Mr. B said: "I would mention energy as a characteristic of American corre spondents. I often feel that it is a sheer impossibility to compete with them." "I am of the same opinion," said Mr. C. "However, it Is unreason able to compare them with con temporary Japanese newspaper men, becouse there is a great dif ference in life, circumstances and in other respects. However, the Americans rest during off-duty' hours and work steadily when work is to be done." Newsmen Get Respect "When we are working with them," said Mr. C, "we are struck by their high social position. They approach any man of high posi tion without hesitation and rapid ly get news. High ranking peo ple speak with respect to an American newspaperman." "What the Japanese are not aware of Is how courteous they ! are on such occasions," said Jap- j anese employee Mr. B. "Though they do not bow and scrape, it makes us feel good to see their manners when they interview a person of high position. Of course, an American newspaper man can get a firm grip on an opponent and stick to the last. But we never feel that they are unmannerly on any such occa sions." "Apart from their way of work- ing," said Mr. A., "American jour, nalists, especially those in Japan are very well informed on most subjects, and have well-roundftj personalities. All have sufficient knowledge to cover stories in anv line whether it be politics, ceo. nomlcs, social, art, science or sports." , ..'
