Press Correspondent : New York (U.R) Beware "of entering the city of New York iiext month. SPRPFH will be here, in convention. . ; That's the Society for the Pres- ervationend Revival of un as a Fongi of Humor. They are just awful people! ; They go for puns and word play in general. They're no good for humanity. Avoid them like he plague. The black plague. The things they do to the Eng lish language shouldn't happen even to Pidgin English. They're no good, I tell you. ; For instance: I 0?e there weee two diplo mats having a conference at Summit, N.J., naturally. T&ere was a British diplomat, Ronald, and a Russian d$lomat, Rudolph. As they' emerge frgm the build ing, $e hear Ronald say: - "JLsay, old ch, it seems to be snowing." "Nyet," says Rudolph, "It's raining." ' "Oh, no, ISay, really, it's snov' "Rain," says the-Russian. ' , At this point, Ronald's wife says to him: "Pay no attention to Rudolph, dear. He's right." "What?" says Ronald. "Him right? Why should I listen to him?" "Because Rudolph the Red knows rain, deiV," says4he wife. See what I mean? These people are a rriace. They tell abouj; the gigantic, almost extin mammal from Australia called the rary that created sgch a sensation in Eng land. This rary was shippea to London for aoo, but it proved too bi and cumbersome for cag ing, so the zoo gave it away. The fellow they gave it " to tried keeping the rary in his garage, but its head stuck out one end and its tail the other and it caused all kinds of com- Gloria Expected To Go for $32,000 Baltimore (U.R) Twelve-year-old Gloria Lockerman, who has spelled her way to $16,000 on a television quiz program, will go for the $32,000 question tonight, a. friend of the family said. The friend is Mrs. L. D. Heav ener, who lives on a farm ad joining the family home of Glor ia's grandparents, the Rev. and Mrs. Vivian T. Keys, at Gap Mills, W. Va. Gloria and her grandparents spent the week end at Gap Mills, returning to Balti more Monday. Mrs. Heavener said Mrs. Keys told her it definitely was decid ed that Gloria should try to double her winnings on the pro gram. The girl has lived with her grandparents since her par ents were divorced several years ago. Gloria, who someday hopes to become a teacher, has been nam ed an honorary teacher in the Baltimore school system by May or Thomas D'Alesandro Jr. He Said the child has done much to enhance the prestige of mod ern Education methods with her "charming personality and abil-ify." motion, what with people ' star ing and dogs barking. Finally the man decided to dispose of the rary. He hired a big dump truck, put the rary in it, and headed for the White Cliffs of Dover. When they got there, the rary wary, said to the man: "What goes on here? What are you going to do with me?" "I'll tell you," said the man, "we're going to raise this truck and tip you right over the cliff." "Goodness gracious, how far is it down there?" asked the rary. "About 350 feet," said the man. The rary stared down the cliff. "It's a long way to tip a rary," he said. And then there was the Afri can king who decided his sub jects .were killing too many lions. He proclaimed a law forbidding lion killing. The subjects, who always had considered lion kill ing great sport, loyally obeyed the law. Soon they were knee deep in lions. The situation got so bad that the citizens rose up in anger and threw the king out of office. That's all for today. I feel rather numb. FACE-LIFTING SUGGESTED Karlsruhe, Germany (U.R) A little face-lifting can not only be worth dozens of hours on the psychiatrist's couch, but it's a lot less expensive, the German Therapists Congress was told yesterday. A Berlin plastic sur geon said "woman is today so embroiled in the battle for ex istence that she cannot perform her work if she has an inferiority complex about her face."
