the georgetown herald wednesday evening june 24 1953 page 8 dangerous swinging spot two readers have called this week to ask some publicity about the danger of swimming below the dam at the old papermill on sunday here were two near fatalities and neighbouring residents are alarmed that there will be a drowning there tins is the only decent place to swim within close range of town and it would be an idea for some local group to provide uper vision during the two- summer months those who jtrjow the river tell us that the water is quitetrfftillow at the edges but falls off sharply future and until that time a supervised natu al s mming area would certainly be an asset il would also be ijeneficial as one man pointed out if a pike pole and some lifesaving tubes could be placed in a convenient spot in case of trouble arrangements might also be made perhaps with the dehavilland com pany to post a sign telling where the nearest telephone is too we have talked so long about a swim ming pool for georgetown that perhaps we have lost sight of a natural asset which could to over thehead depth without warning and be improved without any large expenditure youngsters particularly who are weak swim kids are going to continue swimming where mers can easily get into difficulty a swim there is water so it is up to the town to make ming pool still seems a long way off in the it ns safe as possible for them why we make mistakes a newspaperman can t afford to think of all the ways he can make a mistake or he would be in a sanatorium with double ulceus palpitations and the d i s here s why we take a news item by telephone or over the counter or if we happen to be out of the office make a mental note or jot it on a cigarette package anyone famil iar with our jottings will realize that here u the first margin for error when the notes are converted into typewritten copy for the lino type we can either misinterpret a note or type incorrectly with one of the four fingers we reserve for typing duties the hnotypist is in the same position except that he uses all his fingers he can a set a word or figure mcorrecti b skip a line of type or a few words so the completed copy still makes sense or xc miss a small item altogether which the proofreader catches only if he remembers not seeing it in the proofs the proofreader theoretically catches all mistakes for later correction on the linotype makes the proper notation then sends thr proofs back to the machine here agim coms the miruin for error for proofs must be rfs in a limit j time and its e isy to miss whit pot pourri seems like a glaring error to someone else there s always a chance of course that when the line of type is re set another error will bob up or as happens sometimes when the makeup man is pulling out the bad line and putting in the good he grabs the wrong line it isn t as common as in the daily papers but you have probably noticed an item in which the same line will appear twice one with and one without a mistake and an essen tial line is missing altogether from a news item usually we see a second proof and catch most of these but this too depends on the time available now back to the make up man when he is putting the weekly edition together perhaps you don t know but everv line of printing in the paper is a separate little metal slug there are so many was that these slugs can be 1 i led dropped or misplaced that we can t even attempt to go into detail may lie now you can understand how we missed paul barber s name from the list of soloists at the high school choir concert and how we had the st john s w a rummage vile st irting it 5pm instead of 10 t m and the irietj of other errors big and small which ir an editor s nemesis conservatives sound off predict halton landslide last thursday the local progres sive conservative party held a small meeting of ward chairmen officers and some of their organizers to dis cuss plans for the local contest on be jlf of the p c candidate sy bil bennett chairman for the eveninj wis the local p evident leslie clark mho briefly outlined plans for the com ing campaign he felt that if all conservatives got out and worked anj voted as th y did provmcially two years ajo then miss bennett would be eleettd by a landslide as had stanley hall in 5 he pointed out to the workvri that alter all the many great works carried out in on a o by the present ove iiinmt were merely uic ultimate results of the sound planning and able leader- ship of former premier and opposi tion leader hon george drew- mr clark stated that the evident rtlnrm uiken by halton liberal as- way they were bringing in their pirty brass to the county in an effort to beelnud the isue and hide the fact thai they were backing a t indidate without experience to in any way to qualify him- for the important job of lepi esentinf halton at ottawa miss bennett w ub then called on to speak and tl inked her suppor- leis for the woil they had done on her behalf in the p ist as will as the i r sent she said that if elec ted she wouljd cert unly do h r bebt to m resent her eount to the best of her ability a d would always be willing to serve
