Walt Bodine, Bill Griffith, and unidentified newsroom writers

Description
Walt Bodine, Bill Griffith, and unidentified newsroom writers most likely at WDAF studios. In the two topmost images in the left column, the camera's vantage point looks down a long table with a full ashtray in the foreground and two unidentified newsroom staff members in the background. The two figures, one standing and one sitting, are in conversation in what appears to be a meeting room. In the bottom left image an unidentified staff member sits at a telephone while a man stands beside her, apparently taking notes. Other unidentified men are in the left side of the image. In the middle column, there is a close up of the worker at the phone, but now the man taking notes by her side is seated beside her. In the bottom middle image there is a close up of the two people speaking in the meeting room. In the right column Bill Griffith reads papers at a desk in the foreground, and Walt Bodine is in the background with an unidentified staff member. Bodine also appears in the two images below that. He speaks on the telephone behind a desk, pictured from approximately waist to head. Another unidentified newsroom worker is in the foreground writing on a typewriter.
