X HfeffoV WdrtK of ! Comment On Br HARMAN United Prra Washington, May 25-IU.BI- Warren Francis, Washington correspendent of the Los An' geles Ilmei: drooped 1 n t the National Press club yes terday after- noon on an er rand. He was car rying a pack age which he parked on the floor of the taproom while he went to the library on an other errand Human Nichols Warren found it necessary to be absorbed in hnok for something like an hour, While he was gone, a mischiev ous fellow member opened the package and found a lot of Boxes labeled yummies. That sounded interesting, so the scallywag decided on a prac tical joke. He opened the boxes, dug up some fancy little dishes and put the goodies around on the vari ous tables. It was approaching the cock tail hour when newspapermen after a hard day at the office, sometimes drop up to the 13th floor for a soft drink, or some thing. Pretty soon they started pouring in. Carleton (Bill) Kent of the Chicago Sun-Times was the first to nibble on the appetizers. "Mmmm." he said, crunching "These things are good. It was nice of the board of governors to break the rules and give us a free snack. Several Sample Tidbits Alerriman Smith, the White House man for the United Press, munched a couple of the tid bits and concurred. Bob Casey, the veteran reporter and book-writer, did likewise. So did Truman Pan-Am Hit Goes Just So Far Then Peters Out Mexico City (U.R) The famed Pan American Highway finally is nearing completion in Mexico but it's a "road to nowhere." It ends abruptly in the jungles at the Guatemalan border. Sixty miles away in Guate mala lies the next stretch of the great continental roadway. Until the Guatemalan government ap propriates new road-building funds, tourists who plan to mo tor into Central America simply will have to wait. Neither Mexico or Guate mala has any hope of connecting their terminals of the projected Alaska-to-Argentina highway this year. Road Goes Nowh.r. The strange situation of a road that goes nowhere was created, Mexican engineers claim, when they were asked by Guatemnla to lay their section of the high way to a tiny border village named El Ocotal. One Guatemalan road already stretched to the frontier at Tapa chula, only a few miles from the Pacific coast. Mexico originally had planned to join its 2,200 miles of paved and graded all weather Pan American highway to the Tnpachula roarihead. However, the road linking Ta pachula and Guatemala Citv is passable only In dry weather, and Guatemalans a p p a r e n tly hoped to open an additional northern route into their coun try via El Ocotal rather than im prove the mountainous, danger ous southern route.

COMII This and That W. NICHOLS Faatura Writa Felt of the St. Louis Star-Times, Ted Koop of the Columbia Broadcasting system, Jim Mont- fort, manager of the club, your correspendent and a few others Presently Warren returned and started looking for the pack age which wasn't there, "Where in the name of the high command," he bellowed, "is my bundle? It was food for Rickey." "Who s R 1 c k e y?" somebody asked. "My little ox terrier." said Warren. Turn Unlovely Green A startled look broke out on Carclton Kent and spread around the room as the gentlemen of the press turned an unlovely green around the gills. In this situation. Warren de livered himself of a slight ora tion on the evils of the cocktail hour. "As a matter of fact," he said "you fellows probably are bet ter off eating yummies. They're nutritious. It says so right here." Whereupon, Warren produced "yummie" box cover which said: "The tasty snack for dogs and cats. Each crispy, crunchy piece is a treat your pet will relish and ei'ioy . . . Fortified with pure, cod-liver oil and ye ?st , . , Excellent for in between feed ing . . . Reward for good behavior or for performing a trick. I he club members are on their good behavior. But they're pass ing up all such rewards. TRIANGLE POULTRY FEEDS Builds Ten-Year Success Story Joe Demfher's story is typical of hundreds of the successful poultrymen of the Pacific North west. He says: "I changed to Triangle Feeds ten years ago and have fed it ever since, with the utmost satisfaction. I have tried other feeds but always found I got better results and more profits with Triangle Feeds." Yours truly, Joe Demfher Oregon City, Oregon TRIANGLE the Original KRUftlBLES Chick Starter Triangle Milling Company first originated and developed the idea of chick starter and broiler ration in Krumblized form.
