This week, however, I ’d like to turn coat and tables on myself and do some hefty hollering about a speech on the future of television recently de livered by Dr. M illard Faught, an economist, at the University Club of Chicago.

Lon was surprised when he saw that the men wore chaps and high- heeled boots; that the women were garbed in divided riding skirts and gay-colored blouses. A butler came to the door and yelled: "Come and get it, cowboy!” Deborah fe lt a little uneasy as Lon escorted her to her seat. Her uneasiness grew as he looked slightly puzzled upon discovering there was no silverware at his place save a broad-bladed knife. He hesitated, watching in amazement as the other guests picked up their knives, and with suppressed chuck les began to scoop up peas and shove them Into their mouths. He watched as they poured coffee from their cups and drank from their saucers. "1 understand,” he said, looking directly at Deborah. “ And I regret I can’t appreciate the humor of the thing. You see,” he added, “ we westerners have had it drilled into us by you easterners, that we’re crude and have no manners. “ But,” he paused and made a little, perfunctory bow toward De borah. "Now I know something else; know that whatever other manners you folks m ight have you don’t know the meaning of hos p ita lity .” And with this he carefully placed his napkin on the table, ushed back his chair and strode from the room. “ Lon!

It has become pretty evident that something has been shaken loose from the baseball we all knew as it is now played ui the two big leagues and the leading minors.
