Says His Piece
By ANN LANDS: RS
Dear Ann Landers: Just keep
up the good work and you'U be
responsible for 20,000 divorces in
Cuyahoga Coun
ty alone next
year.
I am referring
to your advice
to Feather's fily-
ing. Why should
n't m wilt fpatl
s!fej the foul and fish
her husband brings home? What
is she doing besides sitting home
and filing her fingernails and
talking on the telephone?
My mother used to be tickled
pink when my father brought
home anything that ran. flew or
swam. In those days the head of
a family had to go out and hunt
un food.
Times have sure changed and
dames like you who think women
should be carried around on satin
pillows will be the ruination of
civilization. I say we'd all be bet-;
ter off if we went back to nature
back to the soili back to the tree
and the stream. JIM
; Dear Jim: Yep, you Just go
right back is that tree. And ask
your wife to write me when you
open a branch office. .
Dear Ann Landers: I'm a hap
pily married man who needs an
outside opinion.
A fellow I've known since child-
hood recently moved to this city,
lie was a brilliant student when
I knew him, talented, well-thought
of and popular. I was proud to
be his friend. He has done well
In a creative field, is a sparkling
conversationalist, a deep thinker
and a thoughtful, kind person.

Dear Detrolter: You wouldn't
snub a friend because he was
crippled by polio, would you?
Well, your boyhood friend Is an
emotional cripple. He may have
matured Intellectually but In the
area of sexual behavior he is a
case ol arrested development.
Many homosexuals lead useful
Ifcea and enrich society through
their creative efforts. Homosexu
als of past decades have con
tributed handsomely to the arts
ad sciences. A person so afflict
ed. If he behaves In a socially
acceptable manner, should not be
insulted or snubbed.
Explain it to your wife In this
way. If she is unable to accept it,
don't Insist on having hfm over.
Your first obligation Is to her.
Dear Ann Landers: I could
have kissed you for labeling TV
"that Idiot Box."
It's shocking how people will sit
and watch TV by the hour just
because they think it's free. Ap
parently ihey consider their time
is worth even less than the junky
programs they watch. This re
minds trie of my father s pet
adage, "No wonder time flies
it has to. So many people are
trying to kill it."
Keep up the good work, Ann.

SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP)-Police
Monday arrested Mrs. Chester

aiding her husband and another
man in an escape from the Ore

Bike-Riding
Wins Acquittal In Court
EVANSTON, III. (AP)-A tech
nicality won acquittal Monday for
Prof. Malcolm Dole, charged with
bicycling on a busy thoroughfare.
Judge James M. Corcoran
found that warning signs were
absent from the street where bike
riding is banned. i
During the Municipal Court
hearing the legality of the ban
itself was not an issue. Consider
able discussion on the philosophy:
behind the regulation came out in
the informal session.
In the course of the wide rang
ing argument, Dole mentioned
that busy Oxford Street in London
has thousands of cyclists.
Nowhere in London is cycling
prohibited," Dole said. "Oxford
Street is much busier than Sheri
dan Hoad (where Dole was arrest
ed Jan. 201."
City Prosecutor Harold O. An
drews observed: "There are a
few million less cars in England
than here. My guess is that a
considerable number of cyclists
are hurt in traffic in London."
Judge Corcoran told Dole: "You
have the perfect case for dismis
sal in that signs posted earlier
were absent, possibly repostcd in
students' dormitories (at North
western University).
"I wish we could win yourjdinance places undue restrictions
