f EIGHT MEDFOHD (OREOON) MAIL TRIBUNE Thursday, Jun It. ltS2 On The Side by e. v. Durimg (Distributed by King Feature. Sradluti. Inc.) How much shopping do you do, sir? It is constantly claimed wives do practically all the buy ing for the family, that the aver age man hardly ever does any shopping. A man disputing this claim says: "women do not buy a man's liquor, cigars, tobacco, underwear, pipes, razor blades, shaving cream, golf clubs or shoes." I cannot agree with this. I believe many wives buy all the articles mentioned for their hus bands with the possible excep- IT COOKS!

One of the in numerable stars of stage and screen born in the beautiful Borough of Brooklyn. Before she became a film luminary Viola was starred in the stage play, "The Poor Little Rich Girl." That was the same season Mary Plckford was being star red by David Belasco in the play titled, "The Good Little Devil." What's In a Name Have been examining a claim there is a connection between a person's first name and their characteristics. This is based on the belief the personality of an infant inspires its parents to give it a certain name. An ex ample offered is that girls nam ed Alice "have a powerful in fluence over the opposite sex." Well, there was a blonde named Alice who was a waitress at a coffee shop I once patronized. She certainly was the belle of the establishment. Men named Alfred, according to this theory, are "indecisive, are rabid sport fans and distrust women includ ing their wives." As for those named Edgar they are "prudent, calm and affectionate, very dis criminative and critical of the opposite sex." I am prudent, calm, affectionate and discrimi native I think. But not critical of the opposite sex. Still, come to think of it why do all those wo men want to slap my face? Asking Queries from clients: Q. Would you mind repeating that recipe for Celtic coffee? A. To a wine glass of strong coffee add Irish whiskey and sugar, top it with whipped cream. That's the way I heard it from a resident of Dublin. Never tried it though. Sa They Say "What's the best way to get along with a Libra born secre tary?" asks a Manhattan execu tive. To keep a Libra (Sept. 23 Oct, 22) secretary contented is monumental task.

Slippery Bilker Of Public Object of Widespread Hunt Springfield, 111. (U.PJ Slip pery Robert Knetzer, the alfalfa field auto tycoon who bilked the car-hungry public of more than $3,000,000 after World War II Is the object of a nationwide search. Knetzer, .in the latest of his schemes, Tuesday engineered the first escape from the Springfield city Jail in 20 years. He slipped atmosphere of the business of fice does not appeal to them. They can be kept fairly happy by not being given dictation. Give them an idea of what you want to say; let them write the letter. A Libra resents famil iarity on short acquaintance. An executive should wait at leaBt two months before he says to his Libra Girl Friday: "Take a let ter, darling." Libra females are very temperamental. Takes a man trained in managing opera stars to handle them. There is also a danger that just as your Libra secretary has been broken in to your routine she will elope with an artist, a book reviewer, a violinist or even a crooner. Gemini women make the best secretaries. Mules & Men It would have been more in keeping with scientific accuracy if Samson had been described as being bald. So states a man of science who repeats the claim that men with little hair are generally more powerful than those who have plenty. As a fel low who has to get a haircut once a week and can part his hair with ease, I am inclined to resent this claim. I am checking on powerful fellows who had plenty of hair. As a starter, I will name "Pompadour Jim" Corbott, the great heavyweight ringman of the yesteryear Jack i Dempsey had a nice crop of hair during his ring career, and still has. Gene Tunney is not bald. "Babe" Ruth did not fea ture a shiny dome. , Over There The world's greatest two fisted drinkers are the Dutch. A Hollander thinks nothing of drinking as many as eight gins before dinner. After dinner he turns to whisky and brandy. Yet the sight of a drunk on the streets of any Holland city is a rarity. The Dutch seem to really know how to handle their liquor. Memory Test Is your memory In good , working order? Do you think you arc in shape to pass an en trance examination for the Young-Oldtimers?

S. Marshal. Investigation Launch.d Authorities indicated they had almost no idea where he might be, but they launched into a meticulous investigation. Every guard and every police man on duty in the Jail were questioned. , The guard who blandly let Knetzer and his "U. S. Marshal" escort slip out the back door of the jail was suspended and charges of negligence and dis obedience were placed against him. Visitors Questioned All of Knctzer's visitors In the past weeks were questioned. Some wfcre known to have been placed under police and FBI sur veillance. The escape was such an under cover affair that even Knelzer's attorney was taken by surprise. The lawyer, William N. Gif fin, said he was "flabbergasted." then added: "But I've been flab bergasted before in this case." U.S. District Attorney Howard L. Doyle said that at about 3:30 a.m. Tuesday a stocky, middle aged man came to the jail and told night jailer Melvin Palmer that he was "George Hulem." a U.S. Marshal. Identification Produced He produced papers to ident ify himself, and said he wanted Knetzer and would return him later in tne aay. Palmer woke Knetzer who dressed quickly. Upon meeting the "marshal" he said simply "all right" and Palmer let the two of them out the back door. They have not been seen since.
