They no longer contend with the bugaboo of all funnymen, the heckler. Young Jimmie homack, a sev en-year veteran of night clubs, is joining the corps of film comics "Damn Yankees and Senior Prom" to escape the ploys of ringsiders who like nothing better than to ruin an act. Hecklers are a breed all to themselves; they sense the exact psychological moment to destroy comedian, says Jimmie, a pleasantly homely newcomer to movieland. Kilty per cent of my club ap pearances have been dynamited by hecklers. "When a comedian goes out on Ihe floor he wins his audience in three stages. First he sells them, then he impresses them. Finally he wraps them up and kills 'em. "Hecklers usually butt in when you're impressing. If they miss at that point they move in while you're killing 'cm." Komack explains there are two kinds of hecklers drunks and pro- SATURDAY, Nov. 1st. SEE... New 1959 International TRUCKS! Pick-Ups Panels 4 x 4's Station Wagons 6 Pass.

He has only one line that completely destroys an act. Right in the middle of a show, during a slight pause, he calls out in a loud voice, 'Check, please," and you've had it. There is no answer. "Drunks usually are crude. Their favorite heckle is generally a loud bronx cheer," Jimmie add ed with a grimace. "Some people heckle because Ihey think they're helping: that the act would be a dud without them. There's usually one leader in every city. In Houston, Tex., he's Jojo Berlowitz. All the com ics know him. "Occasionally a heckler breaks up an act without meaning to. I During a show in Chicago I mentioned that we had won the war, and from a ringside table a .Japanese patron stood up and said, 'Y'ou darn betcha you win war. You sure won war. buddy. Boy did you win war. Wow!" Even I broke up over that one. One New Year s Eve in theater, I had just started my act when a guy jumped up and yelled, 'You're full of baloney!' And every few minutes he repeat ed it until they threw him out but it was too late to save the act. A comedian can't save up a series of answers in advance. You must answer hecklers because they've intruded! and the audience expects a retort. Generally you ad lib to fit the circumstances. Poultry Price Hits New Low PORTLAND (API The Oregon Poultry and Hatchery Assn. heard Thursday that chicken and egg prices are the lowest now in 20 years. Noel Bennion, Oregon Slate College poultry extension special ist, said here that 11 years ago, the average industrial worker put in 32 minutes on the job to earn enough to purchase a dozen eggs. 28 minutes for a pound of chicken and 29 minutes for a pound of turkey.

Bennion attributed the reduct ion lo improved elliciency in poultry breeding, feeding, man agement and marketing, and said, "It is anticipated that im provemcnt along these lines will continue. Bennion said the Oregon poul try industry's gross income of 40 million dollars represents 10 per cent of the state s agricultural in come. He added that of the total, 54 per cent is from eggs, 26 per cent from turkeys, 14 per cent from broilers and 6 per cent from other chickens. jSZ-Powerful 5-Tube TABLE MODEL RADIO Suprhet" chassis -y Undlstorfed ton Selectivity tuning I 1 EBONY J J COLOR - wnaisiorTvu iwtro NO MONET DOWN MJ Selectivity tuning ONLY SOe WEEK ryr,,. , 701 Main St. Klamath Falls Stort Hourt 9:30 to 5:30 University Given Grant WASHINGTON (AP)-The Ur ban Administration announced Thursday it had granted $34,150 lo Ihe University of Oregon for a comprehensive plan for growth and development in the Portland metropolitan area.

Science Produces Evidence Fear May Cause Fainting By DELOS SMITH NEW YORK (UPD Science has produced evidence that strong emotion like tear can squeeze the heart and thus cause faint. The scientists who pro duced it spoke especially of brides and grooms who faint on Ihe altar steps. However, they got their evi dence not from brides and grooms but from men undergoing another frightening experience- men who were in dental chairs having a tooth or two pulled out. The faint has scientific fascina tion. Often emotion alone sets off the dramatic physical event person collapses, unconscious. If people s minds and bodies were less tightly tied together, that kind of faint would never happen. Rut how are they tied together lor tainting purposes? The scientists with the newest word, which amounts to a new theory, said there was something in the grandmother way of pre venting a faint. Grandmothers are always telling brides: "Get a grip on yourself, dear, and you won t even leel giddy. Prof. E. P. Sharpey-Schafer and his associates, C. J. Hayter and E. D. Harlow, began their in vestigation with the established physical fact of the faint there is a sudden drop in blood pres sure. This pressure is created by the resistance of surface blood vessels to the output strokes of the heart. There has to be pres sure if the blood is to keep mov ing. If the movement is impeded. there is a faint. By measurements of blood flow fearful in men about to lose teeth, they established that the contracting or squeezing phase of DOORS CPCN S:30 P. M.

At the same time, blood vessels were enlarged, offering less resistance to a more power ful heart stroke. The men in which this happened, lost blood pressure and fainted. Fear so stimulated the squeeze part of the heart beat, that one heart chamber was virtually emptied of blood, they reasoned. This fired a reflex along nerve pathways which widened the di ameter of blood vessels, and slowed the re-filling of the heart chamber. Thus, the faint. But swooning entails falling and fainting puts other nerve pathways into play which ups the blood pressure and restores consciousness. Merely tensing the muscles will do about the same thing, they said hence the soundness of the grandmoth ery idea that "getting a grip on yourself" is a preventive. Russians Met By Zoo Keeper PORTLAND (AP)-Jack Marks, the Portland zoo keeper hunting penguins on the Antarctic conti nent, told his wife by letter he had just finished building penguin cages.
