Fage 6 SHE TAIBUNE, WILLIAMS LAZY, 3.6, Thursday, Geptember 14, 1054 WITH IRENE “The Hugh Savage Shield for the Best All-round Paper with cireula- tion 100 to 1500 goes to the Williams Lake Tribune.” Well, we can dream anyhow. That's is what we hope to see announced one of these years. Every year the Canadian Weekly Newspapers Association runs a com- etition among weekly newspapers across Canada to pick the (1) best all-round paper, (2) best editorial page, (3) best front page in each circulation bracket. We are under no obligation to enter, ot course. but each year we cannot resist finding out how we measure up against other newspapers. In the spring, the association asks for a copy of your newspaper cover- ing four different weeks of the previ- ous year. We have no advance in- formation as to which weeks they will pick, so have no chance of mak- ing any special effort to put out a good paper for those particular weeks. Other years we have landed about half-way in a list of 50 papers which Stock Furnishings Chesterfield Chairs And many other items, All in stock - All Hand Made by JAN MIKLER For over 30 years Manufacturer of Exclusive Upholstered Furniture Phone 89-R-5 was a long way from realizing our dream. Last year we though we had air chance as the ‘competition weeks’ were good ones for us. when we had produced bright, newsy editions. Or so we thought. ry But the results were. much the same. We were about half-way as usual. This year we almost didn’t en- ter. When Clive emerged — spider- webbed from the bottom left-hand cupboard with the file copies, they at turned out to be AX just mediocre SO editions. Not to be daunted though, and muttering “Why did they have to pick those particular weeks!" ... . the copies were mailed. We knew from the daily papers and from lack of any wire of con- gratulations, that as usual we had not placed among any of the top awards. We certainly didn't expect to. But last week the small booklet listing all the entries and how they placed, came in the mail. You had better sit down as you probably won't be able to stand the shock, BUT... the Williams Lake Tribune placed eighth in a field of 42. We haven't got over the shock and delight yet, and are already trying plan some improvements to help move us up a little closer to our am- bition. Incidentally the Ladner (B.C.) Optimist won two firsts in our par- ticular class, One hundred points is the maxi- mum award, and is divided up into 25 points for front page, 25 for edi- torial page, 15 for community news, 10 for local and general pictures, 19 for advertising, 45 for make-up and presswork. The Ladner paper grossed 70.1 points as best all-round paper. while we were not too far behind with 61.1 in eighth place. We feel we would like to talk to the judges personally, and know ex- actly where we fell down. But the identity of the three judges is not made public. We could probably get more points for “pictures” if we were nearer the coast. Some people believe that we can merely take a picture and put it in the paper, but ’tisn’t so. Up until recently we were faced , With the following procedure: After Blackwell's have taken the picture and developed it, (usually near a weekend), wihch naturally all takes time, it had to be sent to the coast and made into a metal engraving. then it was expressed back to us. With luck we could get it into the following week’s paper. This is quite a handicap not to mention the ex- press expense, compared to a coast paper which can get their engraving either the same day or the following day That is why we have few local Pictures. A quicker method is now open to us with the installation of a plastic engraving plant at Kamioops. And of course if we had a few spare thousands (dollars, that is) lying around and could afford to buy some new presses, linotype, etc., not to mention some help for a hard-pressed editor, there’s no telling to what dizzy heights we might fly. That dream might come true. In the meantime, we're in there pitching.
