Show I I WEEKLY REFLEX DAVIS NEWS JOURNAL, NORTH DAVIS LEADER, APRIL 8, 1981 -- .4 z - r A By DAVE WIGHAM hospital and listened to the news conferences all night. We only saw the first one four times. The next time the president gets shot, and odds are there are still maniacs out there, maybe everything would be automatically cancelled for 24 hours. All businesses should works had spent the better part of six hours telling us over and over again what had happened. It got to the point where they were interviewing guys three blocks away from the shooting and asking them what they saw? Those news guys had covered about every angle possible and then some that went beyond description. Showing me the films of the actual shooting was fine for the first ten times, but then it got a little annoying. government people automatically get the rest of the day off. Even the television and newspaper people should not have to work. Everyone go home and search for their souls. TO ME the game took my mind off the happenings of the day and the NCAA did the right thing. I couldnt have taken another version of the week at Clearfield High School.

THE PRESIDENT was out of danger, all that could have been done for all four of the victims had been done and it was just a matter of time to recuperate. So why not hold the game? Even the president wrote that he would rather be in Philly. THESE GUYS didnt say anything about the millions of theaters that went ahead and showed their attractions that night. They didnt say anything about all the restaurants that served that night. And what about their newspapers? Obviously they had to go to work and print. Does that mean they set a precedent by saying the paper must go out at all costs. 4. r n nl I close, stands to reason the DGD net- i s foot. Here they say that the NCAA is putting sports above the shooting of the president and that they should have waited 24 hours before playing, then it would stand to reason that their own newspapers whould have postponed printing 24 hours. Nothing was ever said about the other two stations. Only NBC was critized for transmitting the game. The other two stations both went to normal programming about twenty minutes after the game had started. Mash was on CBS right after the game but no one said much about CBS and their decision. WHAT DID these sports editors want to happen. Maybe we should have stayed at the PRES. REAGAN was shot during the day and everyone, at least a lot of sports editors around the country, felt the NCAA should have postponed the game. As one guy put it, "the NCAA set a precedent by letting the game go on. Basically it stated that sports is above everything, the game must go on while the country is looking for its soul. Boy, talk about dramatics. What country was looking for a soul? Personally I like the president as well as the next guy and was upset and sorry to hear that some nut had tried to kill him, but seriously, what would moving this game back one day have done?
