Last night the Elks lodge here
and over the nation honored the
American press, an annual obser
vance by the order held each year
during Hstlonal Newspaper Week.
It was and Is a signal honor to be
accorded the Fourth Estate and
Is deeply appreciated by those
members of the working press who
are on the receiving end.
At last night's ceremony Winston
Purvine, director of our school-on-
the-hlll, OTI, gave tnc address, a
line Job which carried the picture
of the press of today from its be
ginnings a good many hundred
years ago when the first moveable
type was unveiled.
Sitting there and listening to his
talk I was struck by the Idea that
maybe It's a pretty good idea for
all of us newspaper slaves to sit
down at least once a year and
have someone give us a look at
what we're supposed to be doing,
what part we are supposed to be
playing In the world ol today. Too
many of us are too close to the
- business side of things to be ame
to penetrate to the heart of the
matter, too close to tne ioresi to
see the trees.
The theme of this year's week
Is "your newspaper fights lor your
right to know." It is sometimes a
fight, true, but It still remains,
vhcn the wnoie tnmg is ooucg
down to the essentials, a vital part
of your life and mine In these
United Stales. Taking a serious
view of the picture it is not dif
ficult to understand that the true
benefits of the American Press
are sometimes the almost hidden
powers that lurk between the pages
. of your daily newspaper. There is
no. fear in the world greater than
the fear of revealm'eni. Wrongdoers
are not overly concerned with the
penalty they may have to pay for
Ineir misdeeds, but they have a
deep seated and abiding fear that
knowledge of their wrongdoings
may become a matter of public
Telling The Editor
knowledge. It Is not the fear of
punishment that crushes a man,
It is the fear of having others
know. Your American Press can
I think, take somo small credit
and some small pride in the fact
that It has served to Keep tnose
in high places, tnose in authority,
those who could if so inclined, bilk
Hie public well In line. It is not
Ihe so-called "power 01 tne press
that effects this, merely the excr
rising of your right to know.
I have long been opposed to the
use of tne words "power oi tne
uress. They seem, to me, to
stand In the public mind us a
boast, as a gauntlet thrown down
by the press as such with a dare,
a challenge. I am highly pleased
that this year the theme has been
centered around the right to know
lather than the fact that this coun
try has a "free press" and is
symbolical of the American way
of liie. Perhaps there is no great
er reward to a people than the
right to have and the strength to
maintain a free press, but it is
overstepping the bounds of proba
bility if not possibility to say that
the American press Is what has
kept this country free.
We have a free press In this
country for a variety of reasons,
foremost of which is the demand
of the American people that they
have and Intend to exercise the
right to know. The right to know
what Is going on along the num
erous corridors of their govern
ment, what is going on In their
nation, their state, their county,
their city and their neighborhood.
But the American press is "free
for more reasons than that. It is
Tree because the people keep it
that way. When a dictator rules a
country and Impales the press on
the hook of censorship you lose
a free press. But you lose it just
as surely when an individual pub
lisher or editor, for one reason
or another, sets himself up as his
paper's censor and keeps from the
public those things that he believes
they should not know. Whenever
this takes place the people of that
community or region or whalever
area is served by the paper have
lost a "tree press and are get
ting along with a publication
nothing more.
TOO COLD
As winter Is amn'oachtnn and
the early mornings are uvowins The press has no more right to
colder, I am thinking of the boys I suppress details than they do to
who are the carriers delivering
your newspaper to the subscribers
In the early morning hours Sun
days, so as to have the nuner
on your door slop by 7 a.m. Why
can t arrangements be made lor a
Saturday evening delivery, or bet
ter still go buck to the Saturday
evening paper, and allhough the
boys would have to deliver the
paper in the cold, It wouldn't be
near as bud as getting un earlv
In the morning out of a wnrm bed

tried it and It's no Joke.
Please let us hear what oilier

We hope that It will always re

dedicated to his job will lay down
his life, If necessary, to keen It
that way. And I know I can speak

d'Essen Is Just the young lady
for you. - -
Mrs. d'Essen, a comely, hazel-
eyed woman in her early thirties,
has one of the oddest jobs in this
oddest of all possible worlds. She
is an animal talent scout.
In three years she has built up
$100,000 a year business locat
ing specially trained animals for
the movies, television programs,
advertising agencies and indus
trial firms.
Her casting bureau for animal
actors now can draw on 750 fur
red or feathered creatures ranging
in size from a sneering mouse tu
dancing elephant.
8o far I haven't had a call for
tight-rope-walking trained
whale," mused Mrs. d'Essen, "and,
frankly, I'd Just as soon I never
do."
If she does get such a call, she
might rise to the emergency. Her
failures are few.
One example of the crisis that
arise almost daily in her unusual
career: A studio sent a hurry-up
call for a mosquito in the middle
of February.
"I finally located one in Florida,
and had it flown here," recalled
Mrs. d'Esscn.
"The mosquito had had no spe
cial training, but proved a great
natural talent. The scene called
for a close-up of him biting a
man s hard. He went through tin
role as if he had spent his life
before a camera. The scene dtdn t
require a single retake."
For this one performance the
tudio paid $100. making the mos
quito perhaps the highest paid in
sect, in history.
"What did we do with' htm?
mused Mrs. d'Essen. "We turned Mrs. d'Esscn.

feel like swatting him. Who wants
to swat a $100-a-day performer?'
Her animal actors average $100
an appearance, whether it is for
moment, an hour, or a full day.
Elephants, whose upkeep is more
expensive, get the top rate $750. 1
Mrs. d'Essen rents some of the
animals from other trainers,

'Ole (pronounced 'oh-lee') is the

BRUCE BIOSSAT
It was ironic that President
Eisenhower was stricken at a time
when he was pursuing a relaxed
vacation schedule designed to keep
bim out of trouble with his health.
It was Ironic, too, that this
should have happened but a few
days before he was to . preside
over a meeting on the general
physical fitness of the American
people to be attended by lead
ing specialists and athletes.
Undoubtedly some Americans
may have wondered whether the
President may not have played too
hard in trying to escape the bur
dens and tensions of office. They
might be asking: "If there was a
chance something like this could
happen, why was he allowed to
play all that golf?"
Dr. Paul Dudley White, Boston
heart specialist who flew to Ike's
bedside after his attack, spoke of
this matter In his highly informa-

laid iTnot only helpful to an un
derstanding of the president s ail
ment but could be a useful guide
to countless Americans In their
middle and later years who might
have doubts about the place of
exercise in their lives.
Said Dr. White:
"Now I know there is a likeli
hood of some pew'e thinking that
the golf he (Mr. Eisenhower)
played the day before his illness
might have been instrumental in
production of this attack . . .
"But I have a feeling. I believe
(this has had) no influence . . .
We see attacks in people who nev
r nlaved any golf. My own feel-
is that aolf has often been
wrongly blamed, that those who
play golf and have attacks at the
age of 65 might have had an at
tack at 45 if they hadn't played
golf.
"Well, that is the present situa-
tion. We just don't know, but we
don't think that exercise itself is
responsible. In fact, I am of the
impression that it really helped to
delay the onset of this ( rather)
than to cause it."
What the doctor said Is that
consistent exercise may have add.

trouble. It may even have saved
his life, since no one can say

The best way to get steady ex.
ercise, of course, is to take active
part in sports. The President ob.
viously is a greai ociever in mis
for himself, and for all-Americans.
People m this country nave for
too many years tended to satisfy
themselves by watching others en.

and highly skilled amateurs. If

get the exercise of walking to the
baseball park or the football field.
The President's experience con
tains a lesson. And Dr. White's
words on the subject of exercise
are advice that all our maturing
folk should ponder.
