J. Loy "Pat" Maloney was honored April 30 by the editorial department of the ChicagoTribune as he began his second decade as managing editor. Pat joined the staff in 1917 as a reporter and as City Editor Dan Maxwell who arranged the celebration put it, "became a fine city hall reporter." He became managing editor in 1939, and has demonstrated that he is a superlative reporter, has administrative ability of a high order and has won the respect and confidence of all those with whom he deals and the devotion of those who serve under him. More than 200 of the editorial staff attended the banquet, a stag affair, at the Bismark Hotel where Pat was presented with a platinum watch, a Hamilton. Mrs. Maloney was not forgotten, however, for they sent her roses and orchids. Congratulations to Pat.
