By the time the colonel reaches

-was the colonel's comment.
Before the dinner was given and
-while the Dal was tied to the bank,
the correspondents tried any ruses
to get the colonel into discussion on
polities. They aU faSed. The colo

his expedition into the jungles. He
ftnneanecd that he was through with
hunting, saying:

and through Africa. I am now con
tent to lay down my gnu."
The former president is hard at
