Mikerographs By MIKE FORBES OUR APOLOGIES to Ernest Monncr, the fellow with the combination carving knife and meat saw. Somehow his name was spelled Mohner, the other day. Well Ernie, it could have been worse. FREQUENTLY we hear a narrator on the radio, who must uffcr from adenoids. His dic tion Is good, his delivery is good, but his words seem to come out of his ears. How docs a fellow afflicted like that get a job like that? Our guess He's the sponsor! HAVE YOU MET Guy Hic kok, vice-president of the First National Bank of Portland branch in Salem? If you have we don't need to tell you, but if you haven't here is your warn ing Do not be deceived by that cold banker's eye he has, for he is loaded with more an cdotes than Joe Miller knew and before you get through, you will buy some Savings Bonds from him instead of get ting a loan! TOUGHEST JOB hr ever bad, says Tom Gilg. master car penter, was building a circular stairway for Tom Jarman. Tom, Gilg, that is) with his wife and fine kids, lives at 534 N. Winter St. "I prefer my stairways straight from here on out," Tom says. OUR SYMPATHY goes to Tom Gribblc. perennial duck hunter, who after years of hard luck was invited to a "cold tur key" duck club where he could get his limit "with his eyes shut." Tom had a dozen good shots, but his gun either mis fired or Jammed. We suggest that you don't ask Tom about this, he might give you a cow bell but that Is another story. Did you ever "get lost?" still trickles our daily life. MT. ANGEL THEATRE . Sun. - Mon. - Tues. Nov. 25-26-27 Sun. Matinee 2:30 p.m. Eve.
