Two Old Friends Think They Had a Bang-up Get-together ny t-KANK Titirr Pita was the telegrapher alio look the preu report off Oil wire fur the paper on which I started. He pounded away most of the night after ( o'clock start when the night wire opened, lie was i char acter and a prince. He was a very big man, a gour mand and loved people that Is those of them whom he liked at all. Pits wasn't any too good to himself but he never missed his trick or left his wire uncovered. Those old-lime operators knew not only the code, but also the transla tion of hundreds of abbreviations that the press wlrea used. They predated the teletype which now dnea everything automatically. They were fat. accurate and de pendable, and there were relatively few of them. Close As they sat day after day or night after night In their little cu bicles transcribing dots and dashes Into the news of the world as fast Vea their fingers could fly over typewriter, they got to know each oilier all across the land. They rarely niet but the sending of one was as familiar to another as was the voice of hu brother. A sender named Joe who worked In the Associated Press New York office got real rhummy with Pits over the wire. They'd tlslt when lulls came and they'd go out and have a drink together during the regular five-minute rest periods. Mar Hop Each only had to go downstairs. Just as the rest was declared Joe would say to FIU or vice versa "this one's on rue" and they'd beat It for the Inevitable newspaper bar nearest their office. Sometimes the frequency of the trips showed up In the copy, but no matter how many blank spaces Pita left, as he maneuvered to keep up. he elwaya could fill them In before the copy left his hands. Msy be not Just the words that came over the wire but the same sense. Finally Flu and Joe decided they had to meet each other and have drink In orthodox fashion up against the same bar. Schedule Joe figured ha could knock off round one In the morning, catch t train, arrive around eight, have the forenoon with Pits and get back on his Job with the lose of only couple of hours, which he could Induce a friend to stay on for him. Seek Better Ail-Around Olive DAVIS. Calif., m There's no such thing as the Ideal olive, la menu Prof. H. T. Hartman of Uie University of California College of Agriculture here. But he's working on the Idea. Some olive produce good oil, but are too small to pickle. Others make fine pickles but are poor for oil. Some mske good pickles and good oil too. but re "alternate, producers" that yield a good crop one year and a poor tne the next, he explains. Therefore 27 kinds of Mediter ranean olives have been Imported and Hartman Is grafting them to about SO California varieties. He seeks a better sll-around olive. eominod.ting pal he Upped off to Itr Fltx. "I m on my way. see yon at i ., .., . eight." Fits wigwaiigrd bark. "lie waiting fur you. Don't forget the place, Billy James's" Primed Once on the train. Joe went Into training for 'he event. When the night wire closed si' 2 JO FIU went the rounds of his haunts and did likewise. By tne time Joes train got in both were prime. FIU wasn't at the station to erect the friend he'd never seen but Joe found the place all Hunt. The bar tender liuisu that they stood at op posite ends of the bar for half an hour before either of them declared the purpose of his presence. They ; r $- - shone. Following proper toasting of each other, which didn't serve to clarify things any. Pitt decided the New Yorker should see Elmlra. He hired a hack and they rode through Woodlawn cemetery and pst the reforms tory. They got bs.k In time and Joe caught hi train. That was a char acteristic of those lovable old timers: their foot could slip but It would be on the threshold when the door opened. Rehash Back on the wire together that night, they ulked It over. Flu al lowed It had been a great pleasure to enterUln Joe but finally admitted that he couldn't remember much about him and shouldn't be blamed If he didn't recognize him when next they met. Joe wanted the same concession. He proved his confusion by asking If Piu was Hie skinny guy who drove the hone or the fat man who poured him on the train. That's as close as PIU and Joe ever got to know each other; though they worked together and Ulked to each other six nlghu week for something like 20 years.
