Try and Stop Me
By BENNETT CERF-
BOB HOPE'S reaction was something to behold when the de
lectable young star, Martha Hyer, told him she would have
to talk to him like a Dutch uncle. "Go right ahead," invited
Hope, "but I'm afraid you'll
never pass your physical"
Hope, incidentally , now
identifies himself as that
"promising . young star of
screen, radio, and TV"
adding "some fellows even
get me on their electric
razors."
A combatable couple had
reached Round 12 ' in their
nightly battle, and even the
neighbors had stopped listen
ing. Weary herself of the
fray, the Missus suddenly
reversed her tactics, and an
nounced, "In spite of all your faults, Walter, I've been in love with
you since the moment I met you."
"Rubbish," countered the wrathful Walter. "If you really had
loved me you'd have married somebody else!"

telling you, 'Up, boy, up'."
Santa Monica, Calif. - Aircraft Manufacturer Donald W.
