Back in the Olden Days of Radio News...

Dusted off this relic for an online contest recently. It was a hand-me-down when I began my news career in 1985. It's the 1977 edition and includes "special" sections on how to file wire copy and slug it properly. The teletype used to run 24-hours a day and we slogged through the rolls of paper to choose what stories to add to newscasts.
