Ph.- lone 8-7277 AdvtrtUtmtmt From where I sit ..Jy Joe Marsh Just Call Me Cupid The counter down at Pete's was full yesterday, except for three seats near the end, so I plv.nked myself down on the middle one. As I took my first sip of coffee a cute young couple came in a girl in her early twenties followed by a fellow perhaps a year or two older. Without saying a word, they took the only two seats left on either side of me. Remembering my younger days, I insisted the young man take my seat so's they could be together. He hesitated at first, then finally he shrugged, grinned and said to the girl, "Well, let's make him happy. My name's 'Kicky. What's yours?" From where I sit, there was no harm done that time, but jump ing to conclusions can be embar rassing. In fact, it's sometimes mean and intolerant-like the way some folks jump to the conclusion a man's "wrong" to prefer a glass of beer over another beverage. Lack of facts coupled with lack of judgment introduces trouble.
