Named assistant news editor of the Hearst Atlanta Georgian and Sunday American last fortnight was Randolph Apperson Hearst, 21, one of Publisher William Randolph Hearst’s twin sons,* his youngest. Sent to the Georgian and American ten months ago to learn more newspapering under Publisher Herbert Porter, young Randolph Hearst delighted Atlanta youngbloods by leasing for living quarters half a floor in the swank northside Biltmore Apartments, buying a 12-cylinder Packard, an English Austin, a twin-engined cabin monoplane, learning to fly. Six feet tall, broad-shouldered, small-hipped, expert squash and softball player, fond of dancing, blond, brown-eyed Randolph Hearst reports for work at 7:30 a. m., eats democratically and heartily with his fellow workers at a nearby lunchroom, is free to play after 2:30 p. m.
*Twin David Whitmire Hearst is currently reporting for the Baltimore News-Post; Brother John Randolph, 27, is president of the New York Journal; Brother William Randolph Jr., 29, is publisher of the New York American; Brother George, 33, is president of the San Francisco Examiner.
