U.B Magda lene Kuhlman is a woman who doesn't let politics occupy her time, except in rhyme. The presidential elections this year stirred the 32-year-old ex- school teacher and she took time off from her "complete service rhyming business" to dash off some sentiments on possible fu ture chief executives. The over all picture, she described tflis way: "You will excuse me If I say they confuse me." " Being an Ohioan, however, she prudently added: "1 11 be tabbed as plain daft If I don't vote for Taft." The Ohio senator faded as Miss Kuhlman turned toward Minne sota and said: "I might say in passin I kinda like Stassen." Likes Iks Too She warmed up on Eisenhower and Warren to finish off the Republicans: "1 11 go on strike If they don't elect Ike! It's as plain as a lighthouse Who belongs in D-wight House! 'Still, there's nothing I'd like mor'n To see Governor Warren And his spouse In that House. ' . And who will say that Honey bear Wouldn't be a knockout there?" The Democrats took just four lines in Miss Kuhlman's political panorama: "Oh, life would be clover With Estes Kefauver And Russia less scary Under Harry." She threw up her' hands when asked for a definite choice, and declared: "I'd rather be wittical Than political." It is the men right at home she thinks more of than politicians. For example: "With me, You see, The men who get top rating, Are the ones I am dating!" Illness Forces Rhyming Miss Kuhlman began rhyming for a living five years ago when a serious illness forced her out of her job teaching in a Michigan high school. She has been tagged "The Bard of Avon Lake" after the suburb where she lives. Her work now ranges from song lyric writing (her biggest item) to doggerel for political, anniversary and holiday events, with a liberal dash of prose edit ing of books, theses and college papers. ! That takes about 60 hours of ARRAIGNMENT BET Arraignment on an assault and battery complaint against Henry Fong, owner of Kim's restaurant, South Pacific highway has been set next Tuesday in district court, according to the sheriff's office. The complaint charges Fong with driving a car against Mrs. Grace M. Teeple on May 3, who signed the complaint. Fong posted $50 bail. I FRYING SPOILS PEARLS Hartford, Conn. (U.PJ Mrs. Olga F. Clapp probably will eat her oysters raw from now on. every week. With the rest of her time she edits and prints a week ly newspaper on diantics and works on her new dictionary for songwriters.
