FOUH MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUKE Wednesday, July 30, 1952 On The Side ByE.v.Durimg (Distributed by King Futures Syndicate, Inc.) God grant yon may inherit Tour mother's looks and graceful merit And your poor worthless daddy's spirit Without his failings. Burns. (How wonderful it would be if children only inherited Ihe best points of both parents. How about your good points? Do you think you owe more to your mother than your father?) Most popular dish in the U.S.A. is ham and eggs. On this all food research experts, seem agreed. Steak is second. Chicken third. Eateries specializing in any one of these items always seem to do well. The first res taurant I was ever in was Smith & McNeil's in the Washington Market section of downtown Manhattan. I ordered hannend eggs. Most people confine the eating of ham and eggs to breakfast. You are not really a ham and eggs fan unless you oc casionally have that dish for dinner. I like my eggs over and prefer hash browned potatoes to French fried. Redheads As for red-haired women ac quiring a tan. It is possible for brown-eyed redheads to develop a tan. This can be rarely accom plished by other redheads. If you see a blue-eyed or green- eyed, red-haired woman with a tan, she quite probably is a syn thetic redhead. Warning Mexico now has some excel lent highways for motoring. If you do any touring south of the border down Mexico way, keep this in mind; if you run over a cow and kill it you must, accord ing to law, load the carcass on your automobile and take it to the nearest police station. Hit and run drivers guilty of killing a cow are severely punished. Perhaps before you start on your Mexican trip your wife and yourself should practice, lifting a cow into an automobile. Please Note Upon enlistment all WACs are issued six pairs of nylons. So I note it said. Doesn't say, however, how long a WAC is supposed to make a half dozen nylons last. Wonder what hap pens when a WAC has a run in her stocking just as a high rank ing officer approaches her dur ing inspection? Must be an em barrassing moment. That Club A New Yorker writes he was FASTEST, COOLEST WAY TO SACRAMENTO VALLEY CITIES FLIGHTS EVERY DAY (From Medford Airport) PHONE MEDFORD 2-5851 r AAA-TLACK SUPER MARKE1 WEST MAIN at ROSS LANE Features Wayne Higenbotham SPRING BROOK ROAD IFireslh IFiryeirs Battery Raised Killed Daily Grown Fast on Special Feed None Frozen Dogs Given Treat Of Choice Steaks Portland U.PJ The Office of Price Stabilization gave 30 pounds of choice steaks to the Oregon Humane society as a "dog day" treat for animals in the pound, but the real nearly didn't come off. The meat had been picked up during the last six months by price enforcement agents who bought it for "evidence" in their investigations. It had been plac ed in a frozen locker for most of that time and was considered unfit for human consumption. Poundmasler Convinced So, OPS Administrative As sistant Bill DeCelle called the pound to give the humane soci ety the meat. Poundmaster Edward S. Silva apparently thought somebody was trying to imitate Mike Di Salle, former OPS director, and that it was all a joke. But after DeCelle convinced Silva that he was not "DiSalle," they closed the deal and the dogs got a haul of T-bones, ten derloins, filet mignons and hamburger. present at Ethel Barrymore's first appearance as a star. That was at the Garrick Theater, New York, in 1901. The play was "Captain Jinks of the Horse Marines." Miss Barrymore was 21 at the time. Charles Frohman was the producer. Being present at this historical event unques tionably makes the aforemen tioned New Yorker eligible for membership in the "I Was There Club." Among the things that inspire an unusual feeling of helpless ness are when your automobile skids on a wet highway or an earthquake. All you can do when these things happen is to sit there and hope for the best. In Japan, which has more quakes than any other country in the world, there are said to be fish which, by their acions, pre dict the imminence of an earth quake. These fish, kept in bowls, start swimming around excited ly and thrashing the water when an earthquake is on the way.' Seems there could be a good sale for such fish in California. Of course, at night a heavy sleeper might not hear his earthquake fish thrashing about the bowl. However, he could tie one end of a string on the tail of one of the fish and the other end to his toe. This would provide him with an earthquake alarm. Asking Queries from clients. Q. I claim the tune of "I'm Always Chasing Rainbows" somewhat resembles a piece by Frederic Chopin. Where can I find that in Chopin's works? A. Get copy of Chopin's "Fantasie Im promptu in C-Minor" and try it on vour piano. Q. Has there ever been a left handed catcher in the major leagues? A. Joe Wall of the New York Giants Fred Tenney of the Boston Braves and Clements of the Phillies were all southpaw catchers. However, Wall and Tenney were both converted to first basemen ' early in their careers. A southpaw makes bad catcher because every ball he throws is likely to have curve. fcjjr ' tin M For the first time, the Army has permitted photographs of its new Patton 48 medium tanks rolling from the Chrysler Delaware Tank Plant assembly line. Military experts say this new spectacular tank will whip any other tank in the world. This million square foot tank plant pro duced and delivered its first Patton 48 to Army Ordnance on April 11, 1952, less than a year from the date the first steel was raised.
