Klaw, '41 "Crimson" Head, Now Capital Correspondent

Spencer Klaw '41, Phi Beta Kappa, Second Marshal of his class, and last year's CRIMSON president, recently was appointed assistant to columnist Carroll Kilpatrick as special Washington reporter for The News and Observer of Raleigh, North Carolina.

Impressed by the work of Klaw when he met him while a Nieman Fellow at Harvard, Kilpatrick summoned the young journalist from a recently acquired position on the staff of the San Francisco Chronicle to help him in the coverage of news at the nation's capital.

Both Kilpatrick and Klaw have contributed articles to leading weekly and monthly periodicals, as well as placing features in many of the country's largest newspapers.
