Woodward and Lothrop
To Salute Newspapers
Woodward and Lothrop's win- i
dows, usually devoted to things i
for sale, are going in for free
journalism lessons next week. I
The downtown store is turning
all its 40 windows over to a two
week “Balute to Newspapers.” '
Insured for $101,600, the ex
hibition includes type, forms,
plates, mats and other material
from local newspapers. The pa
pers here also furnished tech
nical advice on the show.
On the theory that its custo
mers probably would like a good
look at the people' who write
much of what‘ they read, the
store has assembled an assort
ment of portraits of newspaper
people hereabouts, including lo
cal staffers, wire service workers
and out-of-town correspondents.
Zenger Tribute
One window is a nosegay to
John Peter Zenger. hero of the
fight to set up a free press in
America.
Technical displays show the
path of trees to wood pulp to
the paper mills to the presses.
Small living trees will be used,
with imitations for stand-in
duty in case the real article dies.
A window devoted to the his
tory of news, beginning with
cavemen’s drawings, includes a
mannequin caveman.
Early newspaper equipment
will be set up in the windows.;
Some of it, including a 1750 flat-j
bed press, came from Williams
burg, Va.. and other,items were!
borrowed from the' industry’s!
historical files.
Columbia University’s School of
Journalism furnished a file of)
Pulitzer Prize winning cartoons.!
The wire services lent teletype;
printers and photographs.
