Probert went with him on the George Washington and directed the work of covering the Peace Con- ference Sat Tight on Retfurns. When a waiting world was watch- | ing the returns from the Hughes-Wil- son election eight years ago, Probert sat at a typewriter in an office in New York. As the night wore on papers all over the country began conceding, in extra editions, the elec- tion to Hughes. who depend- ed on the A began yell- ing for a “lead” which would allow the d tell the world that as elected. But Probert sat tight. He wasn't sure, and a lot de- pended on him. until he was sure, and when he wrote the bulletin which told the world that Wilson, not Hughes, was elect- ed, he had the satisfaction of know- ing that his service was the only one which did not have to contradict pre- vious dispatches.

When he was in New York for the Democratic con- vention he was presented with the watch and chain in recognition of his all-around good work. But he never told a soul. And if it had mot been for the publication of a small item in the current lssue of an Assoclated Press service publication, Probert would still have his secret to him- self. : Accepts for His Staff. The letter he wrote to Frank B. Noyes, president of the Associated Press, is printed in the Service Bul- |letin of the Associated Press, and it follows: “Please let me say to you and to the board of directors how difficult 1 find it to express adequately my ap- preciation of the very handsome watch and chain which has been handed to me by Mr. Martin, the gen- eral manager, a3 a token of services to the -Associated Press. “Coincidentally, the gift comes al-| most on the twentieth anniversary of | entering the service.
