On The Side

(Distributed by King Faaruras Syndicate, Inc.)
When on a trip, how often
do you write your wife? In some
organizations traveling salesmen
have been requested by the
general manager to write to
their wives at, least twice a
week... Man O' War had a
stride of 29 feet. That the record
for modern thoroughbreds. The
length of a horse's stride is
very Important in handicapping.
It should be included in the
performance charts of racing
publications.
Please Note
Should men be given engage
ment rings by their prospective
brides? Let us not enter Into
that discussion hastily. Think
It over. In the meanwhile. Please
be informed that Anita Ekberg
gave her fiance, Anthony Steel,
a gold wrist chain on which
was inscribed her name and the
date of their engagement. So,
young fellow. If your future
bride won't buy you a diamond
ring, perhaps she will give you
a gold wrist chain.
Doors.
The revolving door originat
ed in Philadelphia and the first
one was at Gimbel's department
store in that city. The first re
volving door in New York city
was at Rector's restaurant and
inspired Wilson Mizner's cele
brated simile: "That dame is like
a revolving door; she goes
around with anybody."
In a Faw Words
It was none other than Gen
eral Billy Mitchell who once
said, "Alaska is the most central
place in the world for aircraft.
I believe that, in the future, he
who holds Alaska will hold the
world. I think Alaska in the
most strategic place in the
world."

Passing By
Clare Boothe Luce. Play

present U.S. Am
bassador to Italy. The amazingly
versatile Clare began her act
ing career as understudy for
Mary Pickford in David Belas
co's stage production of "The
Good Little Devil." But she
never had a chance to show
what she could do with the
part because Mary never missed
a performance.
Says Sha

be able to .get dressed in seven
minutes," writes a feminine

MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE FIVE
Pittsburgh Paper Blasts Threatened
Pittsburgh (U.R) Police
searched today for a man bear
ing a grudge against Pittsburgh
newpapers.
The man telephoned the Post
Gazette Thursday and warned
he had planted a bomb in the
building, the second such threat
to a city newspaper within three
days.
The pygmy marmoset 'of
South America's Amazonia is
the Western Hemisphere's small
est member of the monkey fam
ily. Full-grown specimens weigh
only three to five ounces.
A search by police and fire
men failed to uncover a bomb
and the newspaper's executive
labelled the threat a "hoax."
The Pittsburgh Sun-Telegraph
received a similar call Tuesday,
evacuated its building and no
tified police. No trace of a bomb
was found.
The Post-Gazette Informed Its
employes of the threat and told
them they could leave the build
ing if they wanted to. Only,
about 30 women employees left.
Guy V. Miller, assistant city
editor, received the call at 1:55
p.m. from a man who said he
planted the bomb to explode at
3:15 p.m.
When Miller stalled so tiia
call could be traced, the man
snapped:
"Don't get smart. I threaten
ed the Sun-Telegraph, but this
time I mean It."
