Snow, secretary of the senate and publisher of the Chadron journal, expressed In his talk "Women in Country Journalism" to about thlrtv women Journalism students yesterday noon- at the Nebraskan hotel. The luncheon was spon sored by Theta Sigma Phi. 'Women, mean more to tne suc cess of a country paper than men," he said. "The personal touch which creates a good country paper Is more easily accomplished by women." Locals and society are best suited to women in Mr. Snow's opinion but they can also write stories of murders, county affairs, business deals, and edi torials. "The sky'B your limit" he told the women Journalism stu dents. Newspaper opportunities for wo men are limited almost entirely to the country field he thinks. "There are so few city papers." he ex plained, "and fewer positions open on them." "But," he added, "thee are some 436 country papers In Ne braska and room for at least one woman on each of them."
