That's what Dotty Berger is. Her hushand Milton is a barrister around these acres and lives over in Arlington County. Well, Ihe other day Dolly was cruising in the family hack along about 11100 Pennsylvania Ave. She came to an abrupt halt when across the way she spied some body she knew, fellow named Alexander Goldberg, of Pough keepsie, N. Y. He happened to be her brother. She. gof out of the car and started across the street when the officer on detail blew his whistle on her. My, oh me, thought Dotly, I'm going to catch it for jay-walking. PARKING TICKET Instead the officer pulled out his lit I lo ticket pad and slarted scratching out a summons for parking where it said, plain as day, not to. The officer did what all these fellows do. He asked to see Dot ty's driver's permit. He frowned and did some more scratching. The lady finally paid her re spects lo Al, and then drove on home. That night she told hubby j Milt about her bout with the law.' "Let me give you a little legal; advice, dear," Milt said. "You j just run down and pay the fine. You haven't a chance." I . Right then and there, Dotty started acting like a woman. "I will not,',' she said with capital "N." There is something wrong here, and I'm going to. challenge this. And thank you, Milt, I don't need a lawyer." ! GOES TO COURT . 1 So at the appointed hour on the'! appointed day. Dotty hied herself !i to the courthouse and searched out somebody in authority. Before the judge had time lo bang his gavel she had a little chat with him. She said that there was a few erros on the writing on ine uckct. i First off, she pointed out that 1600 Pennsylvania Ave., which incidentally is where President Eisenhower and family live, is in northwest Washington and not W. NICHOLS Staff Wrllrr southeast, as listed on the ticket. "And," she asked his honor, "don't I look like a female?" The judge could give only the obvious answer, since Dotty is very lady-like. "Well," she continued, "he has me put down as a male. And third, he says that I am guiltv of disobeying an officer of the law. 1 did nothing of the kind your honor. All I did was say 'yes, sir.' Is that disobeying an officer, your honor?" His honor scratched his head. "All right, you win," he said. "As soon as you lawyers get arrested you have to go and get legalistic about it." The un-legalistic Mrs. Berger cocked her bonnet at a rackish angle and walked oul of the courthouse, a free and happy woman. HOPE TO RETURN TO AIR ASTORIA IIPI T. R.
