Mention of Walter Leftwich. Mr. Leftwich also took part in several of the discussion groups and served as a consultant in seminars.

Under the leadership of President W. K. Payne, the Press Institute actually got started five years ago.

The initial meeting was for members of the Savannah State College newspaper only. At this meeting the groundwork was laid for the establishing of a statewide program.

At the previous meeting over 150 delegates were in attendance as well as 30 faculty advisors and 60 observers. The Institute has grown to include a radio announcers program.

In order to establish greater interest and participation, various schools have been given trophies for the best edited and best planned newspaper. The trophies given in the recent Institute were given by the Atlanta Daily World newspaper.

Atlanta Daily World staff members, including C. A. Scott, editor and general manager, have taken an interest in the Press Institute at Savannah State. Mr. Scott made it possible for six trophies to be presented at the recent institute.
