T-Max p3200 is the film to use. I'll be flamed for the next suggestion but it works for me and the newspaper I shoot for. Shoot it at 6400 and develop it in Diafine. It will be sharp, very acceptable grain with easily printable contrast. Follow the Diafine directions...make sure agitation is GENTLE. The only time I have trouble with this combination is when I don't believe my meter and overexpose the neg. I agree with the gentleman who suggested shooting a rehersal.
