I SAN FRANCISCO I COMES TO EUGENE ■ with the fabulous array of 9 Gourmet Foods at I PORTER'S FOODS, UNLIMITED |l "The most fascinating foodstore in the Northwest" 9 270 W. 8th _ Dl 3-7011 ATTEND THIS FREE LECTURE “CHRISTIAN SCIENCE IT'S REFORMING AND HEALING MISSION” By Neil H. Bowles, C.S.B., of Atlanta, Georgia Member of the Board of Lectureship of The Mother Church. The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Massachusetts. TONIGHT TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 21 8 p.m. FIRST CHURCH OF CHRIST, SCIENTIST Corner 14th and Pearl Streets, Eugene ALL ARE WELCOME ...something a little less serious by ted mahar If you think these columns are easy to write, you are badly er roneous. Why, for three weeks I’ve been throwing away columns that just didn’t pan out. Here are the beginnings of some columns I have abandoned: Gregor Samsa awoke from a night of uneasy dreams to find that he had been transformed in his sleep into a giant Dairy Queen . . . Four score and seven years ago our four fathers brought forth a new Dairy Queen, conceived in goodness and dedicated to the proposition that not all ice creams are created equal . . . Now I’m not going to tell you my whole blankety-blank auto biography or anything phony like that, but if you really want to know, my old name is Holden Caulfield and I’m an absolute mad man about Dairy Queens ... So much for those. As you can see, they seem to lack originality in one way or another. Then I decided to write a few limericks. I have never been par ticularly adept at limericks, but being about 400 years behind the times, I felt that the Universal Man should try everything once. (Unfortunately, it’s no longer possible for people to be universal men. You just can’t do EVERYTHING these days. For example, General Motors flatly refused to let me design 1984’s Cadillacs. The Industrial Revolution delivered the coup de grace to Universal Manhood). Oh yes, limericks. The following example will show you why I decided not to devote a column to my own limericks: Jingle bells, jingle bells, Listen, Orson Wells, 1 * Dairy Queen is neatsy-keen. Attend the Sadler Wells. Obviously, I was already desperate, so I decided to write about my cat, Roger Mosky. I was going to give Roger a Dairy Queen to see if she would eat it. She didn’t. She has never seen a Dairy Queen yet, because I couldn't get it to her on my bicycle. I bought a Dairy Queen and was riding home with it on my bicycle, when this little old lady driving a Stutz Bearcat came whizzing around a corner at about 80 miles an hour. I quickly applied my brakes, which are of the hand variety. When the little old lady had gone, pursued by five Eugene police cars and the Campbell Club hearse, I wiped my brow in relief. Then I noticed that I had crushed my Dairy Queen when I applied the brakes. That’s right, all over. So I got out my handkerchief! and wiped the Dairy Queen off my forehead and drove home. Frustrated, I wrote the following column and went to bed: Dairy Queens really taste quite good. I personally like them my : self and recommend them highly. Roger Mosky probably likes them I too.
