I ers
At I he News we are try-
ing very hard to give our
readers what they want
in a newspaper. Since we
admit we re not perfect,
and don't always have
the knowledge that some
people would like more
sports, others more
society news, and others
less of this and that, we
decided to go out to the
people to ask for sug-
gestions, pro or con,
which may help us in fu-
ture issues of The News.
Some of the ideas were
excellent. All were con-
structive. This one was
one that was rather hard
to swallow. One local bu-
sinessman said the News
only "Coat-tails to the
residents on Hilltop.
Since we want everyone s
news and asked for it,
I looked back at several
weeks' issues and wish he
would do the same. Each
section of town is covered
to the best of our abi-
lity. If you have News,
let us know.
Another party stated that
not enough "gossip" was
in the paper. We advised
this person that we would
be glad to have a "spicy"
issue this next week . .
starting with this party.
His statement was 'For-
get it!"
Mrs. Darryl Gumm com-
mented, ' T think the news-
paper has improved a
great deal. It has more
personality."
States Highschooler Joey
Brand, "We need to have
more news from the high
school. As school histor-
ian, I like to be able to
see more about my
school."
Betty Housewright came
up with an excellent
thought,"! think we should
have a personality of the
week, such as the Big D
Personality spotlighted
with a picture in the Dal-
las I imes Herald."
Rose Cross informed us
that we need more local
happenings in the paper.

Mrs. Larry G. Taylor
fold hint. First, The Yard
of the Month was so very
beautiful, but the picture
was too dark. Not only
that but it needed to be
in color to show the at-
tractive colors. She fur-
ther suggested that pos-
sibly the Garden Club may
give two "Yard of the
Month" Awards for first
and second best ....
That way she may have
a chance against these
good gardeners. Good
luck, Liesel.
Raymond Eaves had a re-
mark but maybe I'd better
not put it in this week.
However, he did take a
new subscription for his
wife, who, as he said,
"was the one who reads
the paper."
Mrs. Alton Combest noted
that she always looks for-
ward to getting thepaper
to see what is going on.
She considers it a nice
paper for the size of the
town.
Gene Boyd reflected,
"Advertising is now
being worked, and it is
helping our business very
much. There are more
local pictures which all
of us like.''
There are most of the
comments and criticism;
made on a rainy day in
downtown Wylie. Maybe
you have something ti> add.
If so, send it to us and
we'll be happy to give it
consideration.
