Look at this front page as readable, uncluttered, clear. The head(bones) connect to the story{bones), hear the words of a Chicago newspaper with punch and clarity.
Then turn to Chi Trib’s maelstrom of this and that, full of just-out-of-college meanderings. How do grown men and women come up with campus hi-jinks, too clever by half?
Gimme that old-time newspapering, if you will, where what you see is what you get, keeping it simple for strap-hangers.
