This color educational film is about how a newspaper is made in a community. It was made by Gary Goldsmith Films in cooperation with the Los Angeles Times. This was made in 1959 since the Dodgers/Cardinals home opener was this year and is shown in the film on the sports page.
A room of reporters type at their typewriters. An editor assigns a reporter and a photographer to a job. On an airport tarmac, a reporter interviews a man while the photographer takes pictures. A baby elephant is taken off a plane and brought down a ramp. The elephant is sitting off the plane. A picture of the elephant is developed. A United Press teletype machine prints out a story. A reporter takes it and reads it. A picture of the baby elephant arrives via another machine sent from India. The reporter puts paper in his typewriter. He starts typing (:06-2:38). The reporter works. Other reporters at their desks write other stories. A secretary opens the mail - it's a comic strip. The reporter is done with his story and ands it as the photographer hands his picture of the elephant. One editor hands it out to the makeup editor. The makeup editor does a newspaper breakdown on a piece of paper. A copyreader checks the stories for errors. The finished story is rolled up and placed into a tube. The tube is then put into a pipe that sends it to another part of the building. In the composing room, the tube is opened and the story prepared for printing. A machine sets the story in metal type, one line at a time. After it is set in type a copy is made in the printing press. Another man then compares the printed story versus the original story (2:39-5:46). The story is handed back to the man and ready to be printed. Hands move the picture, the story, and various printing press objects into a flat form. A mat is laid over the hard metal type. A roller presses the type against the mat. The mat is an exact copy of the page. The mat is baked in a curved form. Men put metal into a machine. The metal is a plate - a copy of the page. Rolls of paper are carried by a forklift. Paper is positioned into a machine. Yellow ink is poured into a bucket. Plates are sent to the printing room. The plate is locked into place. Presses start to roll. The yellow ink was for a yellow sun on the page. The machine rolls on as paper whizzes by (5:47-9:13). Black ink is printing onto the page now. The press slides down. Finished paper is cut together, picked up, and reviewed. The printing press moves very fast. Pressmen check the machines to make sure they print correctly. Printed papers are bundled for delivery. Paper bundles go down a chute. Next they are on a truck. They are passed from the person in a truck to a newsstand. A boy delivers newspapers on his bicycle. He tosses one at a little girl and then onto a lawn. A man reads the paper in a barbershop chair. Two boys read the sports section in a car near a baseball field. Closeup on the newspaper: "Dodgers face Cards in Home Opener"
(9:13-11:13). A woman looks at a newspaper advertisement. She then talks with a salesman about a dryer in a store. A little girl reads the paper with her mom - close on a picture of a baby elephant. A boy gives a newspaper to an editor at his desk. He walks through the newsroom with his paper (11:14-11:56). End credits (11:57-12:03).
