Viewpoint
Writing a new story often
Is a matter of viewpoint.
Usually the. writer's style fits
the story and the copy slips
smoothly into its own par
s' ticular section of the news-
5 paper.
" But let's suppose a few re
j porters, each with his or her
- own viewpoint, were assign'
S ed to cover the same story.
: We'll make it a sports story,
" Ordinarily It would read
something like this:
i San Francisco-Sam (Tooth.
; pick) Jones gave up only one
; hit, a pinch-hit home run to
: Walt Moryn in the eighth inn-
I ing, to lead the San Francisco
I Giants to a 6-1 win over the
' Chicago Cubs here today.
Et cetera.
Now, here's the same
yarn as It might be reported
by a society writer:
San Franciico - Samuel
T. Jones, a man who is verr
kind io his mother, gave a
superb performance In a
baseball contest here this
afternoon when his team,
representing the ciiy of San
Francisco, encountered a
sporting group from Chi
cago. Mr. Jones, his uniform
neatly pressed and his cap
perched jauntilr atop his
head, did seem to have one
'lather slovenly habit, how
ever. He habitually chewed
on a somewhat dirty tooth-
pick. It also seemed that
Mr. Jones, a former reii-
deni of Chicago who now
resides in San Francisco,
had not taken time to shave
before the contest started,
Next we turn to the edl
; , torial writer's version:
! San Francisco - Sam Jones
j won baseball game for his
team, the Giants, here today
and proved once again that
baseball is indeed the nation
al pasttlme.
Baseball is not limited to
professional teams. This won
derful sport is played in
irade schools, high schools,
! colleges and on the streets of
i New York City. Which brings
t us to a vast problem facing
5 our entire society.
Those children In New York
need more baseball fields, so
; that they will not have to
t play in the streets. Lives are
; lost each year because un
J thinking motorists careen
across these downtown in
fields and end the careers of
numerous young men who
might have achieved great
ness in the major leagues.
Citizens, hear me out!
Also on hand at the game
was a church reporter!
San Francisco - Baseball
pitcher Samuel Jones' fine
performance in a contest
here today was marred br
! an incident which occurred
in the eighth inning.
Mr. Jones had thrown a
ball to Mr.' Walter Moryn.
; When Mr. Moryn hit what
; Is called a "homer." Mr.
1 Jones uttered a profanity
which shocked everrone
within hearing d 1 s tance.
Apparently this was the
only safe hit given up by
Mr, Jones during the game,
but that certainly was no
excuse for forgetting one's
manners and Christian up
bringing while performing
before the American public.
We hope, Mr. Jones, that
you will search your soul
before you ever say
"Shucks" again.
.
Last comes a story from
The Cautious Reporter, the
man who is so accustomed to
attributing statements to or
ficial sources that he occas
ionally becomes too confused
to write the basic facts:
San Francisco Sam Jones,
reportedly a pitcher for the
San Francisco Giants, surren
dered only one hit, according
to a highly reliable source,
when the Giants won, it was
announced by Manager Bill
Rigney, baseball game from
the Chicago team, allegedly
known as the Cubs, it was
announced here today.
' ' The source confirmed that
'. today was indeed today, he
aid, adding that tomorrow,
. barring unforeseen occur
encee, probably will be to
morrow, He clatmed.
Offlcials said, pointed out,
cited the fact and stated that
Jones' victory was hut second
this year, they stated and add
ed, end that the pitcher re
portedly has not lost a game,
they inserted end claimed.
The score reportedly was
0-1 but. officials laid, this is
not official, they added, since
a certified public accountant
had not as yet checked the
soorebook, they noted.
All In all. iheueh, ll cer
