ABSTRACT:
A receptacle positioned within a wall structure of a dwelling for receiving, retaining, and transmitting a newspaper or the like in a unidirectional path is disclosed. The receptacle includes an elongated chute, resilient fingers, and a first collar. The chute is comprised of an external end for receiving the newspaper into the chute, a body for retaining the newspaper within the chute, and an internal end for transmitting the newspaper from the chute. Resilient fingers extend from the inner wall of the body and converge toward the internal end of the chute for allowing unidirectional passage of the newspaper through the chute and preventing withdrawal of the newspaper from the external end. The first collar is mateable to the external end and has a plurality of elastomeric projections extending from the peripheral portion of the first collar and converging radially inward toward the center of the first collar.
