Quiz Queen Flubs
Easy Question Bui
.Wins $220,500
New York (UPI)
queen
Quiz
Elfrida von Nardroff
failed to answer an esy ques
tion Monday night, ending a
21-week ign on the TV quiz
show "Twenty-one" that gav
her $220,500 in winnings. .
Elfrida was dethroned by
educator Robert Leicester, 48,
but she went back to her
Brooklyn apartment with ie
most money ever won on a
television show.
Loses $33,000
Miss Von Nardroff, 33 last
Thursday, had reached the
total of $253,000 during her
tenure on the NBC-TV quiz
big $st $33,000 of this
amount when she faltered on
a question about a Nazi
leader.
The money she lost went
into Leicester's kitty and he
continued playing against au
thor Stephen Becker of Bed
ford Village, N.Y. As the pro
gram ended, Leicester was
leading Backer', 10-0.
Wrong Guess
Miss Von Nardroff's defeat
came when she was asked to
name the Ng:i leader who
committed suicide after being
sentenced to the gallows -by
the Nuremberg war crimes
court. She mentioned both
Hermann Goering and Joseph
Goebbels while tryinf to pick
out the answer and finally
took a stab at the latter. It
was the wrong guess.

Is That So?
By EUGENE BURNS
Ranger-Naturalist
Amman One of the more
common types of fish found
in the Jordan is a form of
barbel of which there are two
kinds, each of them attaining
a maximum length of nearly
two feet.
The chief difference be
tween the two is that one has
a slight hump just back of
t. head. Otherwise, there is
little to differentiate them.
Though an extremely hardy
fish it takes them longest,
among the 40 or so different
kinds of fish in the river, to
die when they enter the Dead
Sea, as the Jordan fish oc
casionally do it does not put
up quite as big a fight as one
might expect from its. size.
Nonetheless, whoever hooks
into one will get sport enough.
I cai"ht a 14-inch one the
other evening, and it was
good fun. We had been using
spinners, and I had tried some
other artificial lures without
any luck, when we decided
to try some grasshoppers
which we caught in the brush
a few feet back from the riv
er's edge.
The hopper drifted only
once around an eddy before
the fish took him off the sur
face as quietly as one of the
larger trout engulfs a fly.
According to the Arabs
here, whenever there is a
horde of locusts that invades
the river-bottom, the barbels
have a field day. The locuts
evidently pay no more atten
tion to a river than to any
other obstacle. They just pick
a quiet place and set out
across the water.
Bottom Feeder
The barbel is a bottom feed
er, but it evidently doesn't
take him long to discover the
locusts when they start crowd
ing over the surface. One
Arab tells me he has seen
them attack the locusts so
greedily that their heads
popped out of the water con
tinually as they fed on the big
insects.
Most likely every iish of
any kind, aware of the locust
invasion, swarmed in to get
his share of the food.
The barbel, incidentally, is
very good eating. Despite the
warmth of the water and the
air, its flesh is firm, solid, and
in the one I ate, at least, there
was no indication of a muddy
taste as with so many bottom
feeders.
