Federal officials responded to the pleas of New Jersey officials by laughing at them over the phone and saying that New Jerseyites deserve whatever happens to them. WASHINGTON — The American Hurtage Foundation, a prominent think-tank dedicated to "restoring America’s basic values," today sent a 1,009-page summary of its recommen dations to Pres. Reagan. Chief among the Foundation’s recommendations is the proposal that masturbation be made a federal crime punishable by public hanging. White House and Congressional leaders promised to give "hard consider ation" to the proposal. CHICAGO — “Penthouse" publisher Bob Guccione today announced that he was reaching out to Oregon to hire the staff of the Lane County District Attorney's office as "special consultants" in the porn king's film division. The lawyers, who will attend special screenings of pornographic films, were hired "because of their massive experience with this sort of thing.” WASHINGTON — The Food and Drug Administration, in cooperation with the Justice Department, today released a report saying that former Teamsters Union president Jimmy Hoffa actually died of cancer after a lifetime of drinking coffee.

We tried to do a poor, struggling cartoonist a favor last fall by printing his strip — but no, you called it shit and sent us petitions and threatened to inundate our offices with sparrow carcasses. Never mind that "Peanuts” is published in every other daily paper in the area, appears on television more often than Star Trek, and is emblazoned on every poster, t-shirt and coffee mug from here to eternity. So we tried again. Another poor, struggling cartoonist, another avant-garde strip. This time, not only did the Schulz fans scream at us for not bringing back Charlie Brown and Co., but latent "Sparrow” fans suddenly appeared, accusing us of choosing an even worse strip. And when we finally did bring back "Pean uts,’’ did we get nice letters of thanks? No — everyone bitched at us for burying it in the clas sifieds. Give us a fucking break! We’re tired of fighting with you. So we’re printing everything on page two, and if you don’t like it, that’s your problem. After all, what are you going to do — cancel your subscription? Photographer glows with rage Spill prompts nuclear family University of Oregon Health Sciences Center officials have hailed as miraculous today’s birth of a 27-pound infant with four eyes, three arms and com plete sets of both male and female genitals. The parents, both University physics graduate students, met in January while serving as lab assistants in the physics labor atory that was later the site of an unfortunate radioactive chem ical spill. The birth was the first of its Hold on to your BEOGs! K-RIP WELCOMES RONALD REAGAN AND THE U. S.

Unlike most unusual births, however, the mother was not taking fertility drugs. The couple first copulated in early February, they told the Immorald. During their feverish activity a beaker of plutonium was inadvertently spilled. “I guess this is what happens when you get a little ‘nukie,’ ” quipped the happy father. "Looks like we’ll be the first parents on the block with a nu clear family.” The mother was also in fine spirits despite having spent 11 days in labor. "I guess it was not 'too hot to trot,’ huh?" she asked with a grin. Meanwhile, in what he called a "completely unrelated in cident,” University nuclear phy sicist Adam Baum said an Im morald photographer has been discovered sterile. Although the photographer toured the laboratory moments after the spill, Baum blamed the infertility on large amounts of various drugs consumed by the photographer over a long per iod of time and not the radiation. However, Immorald photo grapher Bigg Dycks said in an exclusive interview that when he returned home that evening and attempted to engage in in tercourse his genitals gave off an “eerie green light." “Man, that ain’t never hap pened before neither,” he ex plained.
