Athletic cards are not needed. ... something a little less serious by ted mahar Even discounting the world news, there is plenty in the Sun day papers to drive you batty. Most of it is found in the Sunday supplements, the magazines that accompany the newspaper. In addition to such intellectual treatises as “My Son Sal" by Mrs. Mineo there are fun-and-games type articles, usually a quiz of one kind or another. One of the most irritating is the kind that asks a simple question like: Birds like worms—true or false? And then the answer turns out to be false. There is then the statement of some little-known fact, like: Contrary to popular opinion, birds abhor worms. The only reason that they eat them is that they cannot catch the food they really enjoy, six year old tom cats. Worms, then, are merely a poor second choice. Here are a few other samples. General Custer’s famed Last Stand was made at the Little Big Horn—True or False? Big Horn—True or False? It is a little-known fact that General Custer was actually in the hospital at the time of his Last Stand. In his place he sent Capt. Wade Stingepoker, who bore a close resemblance to Custer. General Custer, humiliated by the massacre, retired from the Army and took up farming in Peoria, Illinois, where he died in his sleep in 1902. Fire burns your hand if you touch a flame—True or False? What most people ignorantly regard as “burning” is actually a painful process of instant freezing. The flame uses up all the available heat in the area of its flame, making the temperature, therefore, absolute zero. The best remedy for burns, therefore, is brisk rubbing to bring warm blood to the frozen area. Frostbite is caused by intense cold—True or False? What is called “frostbite” is actually a swelling of body cells caused by the high temperature surrounding frozen matter. Since ice dispels heat from its immediate location, the heat is compressed into a thin layer surrounding the ice, and causing severe burns (mistakenly called frostbite.) The best remedy for frostbite is brisk rubbing to bring cooling blood to the burned area. Columbus discovered America in 1492 A.D.—True or False? Columbus actually discovered America in 1945. Due to an error in recording dates, for 453 years people mistakenly thought they were living in January, 1149. No one has corrected the error to this day, which is actually, 2415 A.D. Dairy Queens taste good—True or False? Surprisingly, for once the public is right. Dairy Queens ac tually do taste good. In fact, they taste wonderful. Scientists are at a loss to explain how so many people could be correct about anything. The best explanation came from a Latin scholar, who slid: “De gustibus non est disputandem.” Freely translated, this means: "De gustibus non est disputandem.” Hamilton 2, Cripe 4, Mickelson 3, Olson. Mathews, Nutlor, Con rad, Resslew. Omega Tops Sheldon aJoe Rose and Mike Morrissey scored 10 and 8 points respective ly to lead Omega to a convincing 39-17 victory over Sheldon.
