Newspaper Guild Records Part 1 THE NEWSPAPER GUILD COLLECTION 57 Manuscript Boxes 171 Scrapbooks Processed: August, 1971 Accession Number 401 The papers of the American Newspaper Guild were deposited with the Archives of Labor History and Urban Affairs in 1970-71 by the International Executive Board of the lING. The American Newspaper Guild was established in December, 1933, as a loose national federation of editorial workers organizations across the country. The immediate stimulus for the founding of the Guild was the need for organized, country-wide representation of newspaper men before the National Recovery Administration in its attempt to produce a code for the newspaper industry. Within the Guild itself there were two factions: One group wished the Guild to be a professional organization upholding standards of good journalism; the other group agr~ed with the first group's aim but wanted, in addition, a Guild with more of a trade union aspect, i.e., that it secure the economic goals of its members. This second faction won and today the lING is affiliated with the AFL-CIO and the CLC. The papers of the American Newspaper Guild cover the period of 1933-1969. Series I - Early Correspondence with Local Guilds Boxes 1-19 This series consists almost exclusively of correspondence between local guilds and the lING. The correspondence deals with question on organizing a local guild, procedure, jurisdiction of the guild and other unions; strikes, negotiations,· contracts; pub1ishers'efforts against the guild; local newsletters and 'strike papers. The correspondence from some guilds consists of the first letters of inquiry on how to organize a guild up through the dissolution of the local guild. The papers are arranged alphabetically by city and then chronologi­ cally. In some cases an additional file was made to deal with a specific problem of the local guild. These have been retained and are filed after the regular correspondence files of the respective locals. Newsletters, where bulk warrants, are also filed after the respective locals. This series covers the years 1933-62, especially 1933-47. 'Series II - Later Correspondence with Local Guilds Boxes 20-46 Like Series. I, this series consists mainly of,correspondencebetween'the lING and local guilds. The correspondence deals with contracts, proposed contracts submitted by the local for lING analysis and approval; negotiations, strikes; routine requests for supplies; questions on procedure; Newsletters, strike handbills and bulletins. The papers are arranged alphabetically by city and then chronologi­ cally. Special problem files and newsletters follow the respective local. This series covers the year 1937-65, especially 1947-64. Series III - Hearst Negotiations Boxes 47-52 This series consists mainly of correspondence between the lING and its Hearst Chain Council and Hearst units of the various local guilds and Hearst manage­ ment. The correspondence deals with memorandum proposals, counterproposals, interpretations, comparisons, etc.; negotiation meeting minutes and reports; negotiations carried on by correspondence; ratification votes and proced1.1res; -2- Part 1 questions of interpertation; clause violations and arbitrations; formation of the Chain Council; newsletters; negotiati~g bulletins. This series covers the years 1937-58, especially 1940-57. Series IV - Contracts with Now Defunct Newspapers Boxes 53...:.57 This series consists of contracts between the local guilds and now de- funct newspapers. Sometimes included along with the contracts are early management policy statements or "bulletin board agreements." Frequently the ANG Contracts Committee analysis is attached. There isa little correspondence dealing with changes, amendments or interpretations of the contracts after sign­ ing. The papers are arranged alphabetically by newspaper and then chronologically. This series covers the years 1934-68, especially 1937-60. Series V - Heywood Broun Award Entries Box 57 & Scrapbooks The Heywood Broun Award is conferred annually by the ANG for outstanding journalism in the public interest. This series contains some of the winning entries between 1943-1966; two entries for 1967 - apparently one is the winner and the other the honorable mention; and many of the contest entries in addition to the winners for 1968 and 1969. The entries are in scrapbook form. From 1943-67 the entries are shelved chronologically. For 1968 &;69 they are shelved by contest number.

  • Eternal Lies Addendum – Local Newspapers
    ETERNAL LIES ADDENDUM – LOCAL NEWSPAPERS This addendum to the Alexandrian Remix of Eternal Lies adds historically-sourced local newspapers to all of the major locations of the campaign. I have not researched papers for New York (the PCs spend so little time there; and, if in doubt, use the New York Times) or Thibet (the PCs are in such an isolated location that newspapers are unlikely to be available, except perhaps for an international edition of a paper like the Paris Herald Tribune, as described under Bangkok newspapers). Hitting up the morgues of local papers for leads has become such a standard procedural element for Cthulhu-esque investigators that I probably don’t need to pontificate upon it at any great length here. It should be noted that the original campaign references a number of specific newspapers in which specific articles of note are published; those are generally not mentioned here (although obviously they also exist). The purpose of this resource is to provide a firm foundation for the GM to improvise from when the PCs go off the beaten path and begin performing unanticipated background research. When I originally ran the campaign, I also found that it was not particularly uncommon for the globetrotting PCs to specifically request a local newspaper upon checking into a new hotel. Being able to reference specific papers (with a few personalizing factoids to distinguish one broadsheet from another) proved to be a remarkably effective and immersive technique that can contribute greatly to the meaningful sensation of the campaign moving through space and culture.

  • List of Directv Channels (United States)
    List of DirecTV channels (United States) Below is a numerical representation of the current DirecTV national channel lineup in the United States. Some channels have both east and west feeds, airing the same programming with a three-hour delay on the latter feed, creating a backup for those who missed their shows. The three-hour delay also represents the time zone difference between Eastern (UTC -5/-4) and Pacific (UTC -8/-7). All channels are the East Coast feed if not specified. High definition Most high-definition (HDTV) and foreign-language channels may require a certain satellite dish or set-top box. Additionally, the same channel number is listed for both the standard-definition (SD) channel and the high-definition (HD) channel, such as 202 for both CNN and CNN HD. DirecTV HD receivers can tune to each channel separately. This is required since programming may be different on the SD and HD versions of the channels; while at times the programming may be simulcast with the same programming on both SD and HD channels. Part time regional sports networks and out of market sports packages will be listed as ###-1. Older MPEG-2 HD receivers will no longer receive the HD programming. Special channels In addition to the channels listed below, DirecTV occasionally uses temporary channels for various purposes, such as emergency updates (e.g. Hurricane Gustav and Hurricane Ike information in September 2008, and Hurricane Irene in August 2011), and news of legislation that could affect subscribers. The News Mix channels (102 and 352) have special versions during special events such as the 2008 United States Presidential Election night coverage and during the Inauguration of Barack Obama.

  • Prospect Hill As Seen Before Demolition in 1965
    Courtesy of Arlington Historical Society The 1841 James Roach mansion on Prospect Hill as seen before demolition in 1965. 14 ARLINGTON HISTORICAL MAGAZINE Prospect Hill A Lost Arlington Historical Treasure BY SHERMAN w. PRATT In the 1960s, Arlington and Northern Virginia lost one of their most price­ less and unique historical assets with the rezoning and destruction of the ante­ bellum dwelling of early settler James Roach, standing majestically on Arling­ ton Ridge and overlooking the Capital City area. The dwelling dated from Arlington's early history after the Revolutionary War and the establishment of the Republic, when the area was still a part of the Capital City. In the late 1830s, Philip Roach, with his wife and two daughters and son James, arrived in Alexandria from his former home in Ireland. He immediately set about to find land upon which to establish a New World home for himself and his family. In due course, he focused on one of the most desirable and attractive pieces of real estate in Northern Virginia. The site was well elevated, located about a mile from the Potomac River, and today comprises approximately the northern portion of Arlington Ridge, parts of Crystal City, and Pentagon City and their nearby environs. The land was part of the 1669 original patent 1 of ship captain Robert Howson that was purchased by John Alexander, passed to his son Philip, and even­ tQally conveyed in 1811 to William Henry Washington. It was taken over· by the Bank of the United States in 1836, and then purchased by James Roach on June 29, 1837.2 The senior Roach died on June 9, 1838 at the age of 50, and James, still then residing in Alexandria, promptly looked around for a proper lo­ cation on which to build his home on his new property.
