Mr! and Mrs. 'Don 't Cook flow but . . . Mrs. Norton Pearl of Detroit, Mich., national president of tha American Legion auxiliary, visiting the slate capitol and hearing the glowing tributes to Oregon given by our efficient (super salesman-guide, admired the Ibeautiful) table made from rich and rare Oregon woods in the governor's office but was gratified to note that it was made In. Grand Rapids. Time and again i. . . The students of Willamette have a new Idea, they are think ing of having men assist girls In the May pole dance." Now some years ago. too re mote of course for this young generation to remember, men did jdance with the girls around the Maypole But we remember a day even before thi$ was condoned, and also recall the first year when a daring thing was done --THE MEN DANCED WITH THE GIRLS IN PUBLIC ON THE CAMPUS --but things were more discreet than one might think, for when the dance routine decreed that hand clasped hand, a handkerchief,; dexterously held in I her palm, kept the young lady's fingers from really touching those of her partner". But it was a step any way kids, and we were pioneers. Modern methods;. . . If a newspaper .functioned like a radio network our States man's front page wuld be like this: Mr. Sprague in "It Seems jto Me" would give his version of the arrival; of Secretary of State George Marshall in he US yesterday. In columns two through j seven, would Be sign ed stories by local reporters, clipped from an AP news dispatclji about the arrival of Secretary of State George Marshall in the US yesterday. They'd be the same except that one would call him "George", because the reporter served) in the army when "George" was a general and knows him pretty well; another story would Include the words "Ha, ha" several times, because the writer Is a humorist, and pretty clever at it too; "column five story would end up with a weather report on how things are in South ern California. Column eight would be an "on the spot" report of the arrival of Mar shall's plane from Moscow. Included would be an interview with a stewardess from a nearby airliner; a little chat with a baggage boy and, though the reporter wouldn't get to see the arrival of the plane before his deadline, he would get an inter view with a "lovely lady" who dropped around to see if any free soap chips or Lin coln convertibles were going to be given away. Interspersed with the news in all col umns would be some questions asking the reader, if he wa3 suffering from something or other and suggesting ducky ways to clear up the trouble by reading the ads on page three or four. All the stories, that is, except "It Seems to Me," which would be labeled a "public service." probably be cause they didn't have cm ad to match it. Long Range Plan . . . Salem's new drinking fountain on Court and Cottage streets was never meant for short necked individuals such as we. It imitates Old Faithful, gushing over the edges of the ce . ment standard and swishing joyfully over stockings and into, shoe tops. Once upon a time, when the Breyman fountain was used for what it was designed to be, a horse, a dog and their master could all drink at the same time. It was fun to drive Old Fred up to the trough, get out of the surrey, help our fox terrier and all three drink deeply, as if we hadn't had our drinks at home a few minutes before. . . .
