wb the ease of a In The others doing the voting are Karen Mark Clairmont Sports Editor Sorry Tony Wuh every season there Is a change Here you see hold and read ours Now that the characters or players in our stories have changed costumes or uniforms and the sets or fields have shifted ihen it Is time for a whole new package presentation It is sort of a spring cleaning Time to break out of the closed in confined spaces of little arenas gyms and tabloid newspaper sections and out into the wide open expanses of soccer fields baseball diamonds and broad sheet metro six pages This week the Halton Hills Herald began printing our own newspaper on presses in our basement plant premises below the new offices at Guelph Street The Herald not exactly the flagship of the Thomson newspaper chain empire now that the Toronto Globe and Mall has been acquired by such still in the works when I came here eight months ago I assured as had been my two predecessors that Indeed one day we would no longer have lo ship our offset pages to another printing plant be pressed FINALLY CAME Finally thedaycame Monday afternoon press foreman Maurice Aube along with some assistance from lhc bead office boys ran off Section C of the Wednesday May 1960 Halton Hills Herald Yesterday Tuesday the rest of the paper including the front A section where these new sports pages will appear and the classified section were run off On the way lo this historic moment In print Journalism e the editorial staff were Informed that the paper would be increasing in size by one extra column width a count of nine In a day when most papers are reducing their product size for ease of handling and reading we are increasing ours from and threequarter inches wide to 18 and one quarter It will still stand 32 and three quarter Inches tall It has something to do with saving paper by widening the and thus reducing the number of them This is where you and I fall Into place We have fallen victim to a giant 10ton Community Goss Rockwell Interna offset press Due to lis somewhat limited capabilities this department and its readership will now have to cope with the new layout PAPER SHIFT The problem here lies with the press The knives which cut the paper shift if they have to cut through so many pieces of paper throwing off the edges of the paper and Iheir centre Consequently after thousands of papers the cut could come In the middle of the page So there goes the little Sports Week There Is talk the problem be solved and once again we can revert back to the little one one day Where have I heard thaf When the farmer section was first used it became the tabloid sports section within the Thomson chain Former sports editor Tony who created It with a little bit of trouble honed It lo a high degree of acceptance success and respectability within this community I worked with it and enjoyed it Sorry this way Tony Now I know why they say we reporters are with the press I will admit that when the change was proposed I was admittedly against It It was easy to slap a few stories on Why rock the boat If It works good and the people like it why change Mechanics I was told CHANGE AS GOOD AS REST But then I thought it might be a fair idea after all A change is as good as a rest or so they say Coming out of the blahs of an unusual winter maybe a fresh new approach along with the new building and press would be okay And afterall the Globe switched from their Monday sports tabloid to metro size again because of layout problems Bigger pictures brighter designs less crowding and maybe even color once In while The thoughts began dancing in my head I wish I skipped those creative design courses at However I read enough of other newspapers get a few ideas and make up some of my own It is kind of exciting trying this new approach It has an aire of spring fever about It Time will tell of course whether you and I both like what we now have Yet if we both strive to make the best of it will then perhaps won t be as bad as we envision It to be It could be Just as well since we are sportsmen the extra effort in turning the bigger pages and holding and folding them will do us some good SHORTS Not until you start running can you honestly try to understand what it takes to be a Bill Rodger or a Both are marathon runners who run the grueling mile races that are now becoming the fad for Ihe in crowd who Just a few years ago were content to Jog around block in an old sweatshirt a pair of cutoffs and beat up old tennis shoes Monday night while I was training for the June Mayor Cup Race
