J t ..,r!foc nlr r i T..n 91 IR) Aftpr month of study, Sid Rexnick announced today the Rexnick formula for pronouncing British proper names "The older the family, the less the name is pro nounced as it is spelled." This philological discovery, guaranteed to make easier the life of any tourist, stemmed from the fact that Reznick (pro nounced Reznick) writes jokes for auch people as Al Jolson, Ed wynn, Milton Bene ana jimmy TliirnntA Events D.tcrlb.d Events leading up to the nez nick formula were described by his British associate, Sid Colin, who writes jokes for British stars.

BARTLETT V Tomorrows Chicken Holds Spotlight At Poultry Fair San Diego, June 21 (U.R) The "chicken of tomorrow" took the spotlight at the opening ces sion of the fourth annual West ern Poultry Congress in Balboa park here yesterday. The chickens were bred for thicker and plumper drumsticks and were 12 weeks old the time it used to take to grow a three-pound fryer and weighed about five pounds. Fors Hatchery and Arbor Acres Farms, of Fuyallup, Wash., entered the best chickens in the contest. Second place in the contest went to Vantress Poultry Breed ing Farm, of Marysville, Cal., which won the state contest Sat urday. H. L. Shrader, of Washington, D. C, senior extension poultry man for the U. S. department of agriculture, presented the tro phies to the winning breeders. Of 400 million meat chickens that will go to the market this year, more than a third will be the improved types developed in the five year program of grow ing tomorrow's chickens, Shra der said. The convention will close to morrow evening with the annual dinner and dance. "Reznick wanted some fancy British name for script. He saw Col. Leveson-Gower's name in a news item and he asked me how to pronounce it. "I did a little checking and advised him it was pronounced Loosen-Gore. "This seemed to excite Rez nick. He asked me how to pro nounce Ayscough. another old family. I wrote back that it was. naturally pronounced Askew. Then he wanted to know how to pronounce Beauchamp, which is. of course, Beechom. It's Their Language " 'Why don't they pronounce them like they spell them?' Rez nick inquired. I replied that it was our language and we could pronounce it anyway we wait ed. It was up to the junior part ner in the language to follow our lead." The titled Circencesters pro nounce It Sissiter. Cockburn is Coburn. Colquhoun is Cohoon. Hawarden is Harden. Then there is the family Maj oribanks. It sounds like Marsh banks. Menzies is pronounced Mengis. The Myerscoughs call themselves the Maskews. Meux is Mews. Two gems from the Reznick collection are Tyyrwhitt, pro nounced Territ, and Wriothesley, pronounced Roxley. With such examples Reznick feels that nny American can make a good guess at other Eng lish names. But he warns against pitfalls, such as Smith and Jones. There are places in the upper (social) register where they are pronounced Smyihe and Johns. 'it W tke Best K3 f:r enjoyment of a truly i-f cream, serve Arden I V") Fresh."
