The Jewish Jester

By ELYEH NATHANS

STOP US IF YOU heard the
one about Spectorsky, the second,
who joined the foreign legion to
"become strong." To oblige, the
camp commandant sent him on a
thousand-mile solo march through
the desert.
Comes the fourth day and we
find our hero somewhat the worse
for his training. But he struggles
on and suddenly spies a wooden
tower not far off. For a while
he thought h'e was seeing mirages,
but as he came closer he saw that
it was real.
Yes, there on the tower sat a
man reading a weekly news mag-
azine. He wore a bathing suit
with the word ''Lifeguard" in-
dented across it.
"Hey, mister, what are you do-
ing here in the desert," Spector-
sky inquired informally. "Don't
you know there's no water around
here for a thousand miles."
"Sure I know," answered the
lifeguard. "But isn't this a won-
derful beach."

BERLE PULLED a blackout
pun that still rocks them in the
aisles. During last year's New
York brownout, according to
Berle, everyone cooperated except
for one little lightning bug which
ignored all regulations. The of-
fender was hauled before Mayor
O'Dwyer.
"What do you mean ignoring
regulations," demanded His Hon-
or. "It's this way, boss," said the
lightning bug, "When you gotta
glow, you gotta glow."
"When I was a baby, I wanted
to be a jockey," stated Berle to
some friends. "You a jockey,"
they jeered at him. "Why a joc-
key weighs only 97 pounds."
"That's right," agreed Berle sad-
ly. "That's what I weighed when
I was born."

Ork leader Charlie Spivak re-
turned to his favorite corned beef
spot, Boesky's. .. . Tagging along
were Johnny Lebo, Paul Brown
and Will Collins.
Mort Serlin looking very pleas-
ed after his weekend trip to Chi-
cago. . . . We hear his blind date
turned out O.K. . .. Why doesn't
Annie Smith like big steaks any-
more?
After attending all these gradu-
ation ceremonies and hearing the
terrific speeches to the graduates,
I went home and carefully dusted
off my Wayne diploma. When
are these speakers going to let
loose with some real down to
earth advice instead of speaking
platitudes?
'DATES . . .
Outdoor dancing seems to be
the favorite for our social cal-
endar these days. Spotted Lil

dred Lesser and Lou Rubin, Eu-

GO TO BEST SHOWS

Levinthal takes his boys, con-
valescents fro ma number of
hospitals in New York. bnly to
Broadway shows and sports
events that are usually sellouts.
For instance, he treats them to
smash hits such as "Annie Get
Your Gun," "Brigadoon," and
"Finian's Rainbow" and to popu-
lar college basketball games. As
many as 120 vets are enter-
tained in one evening.
The hospitals select the 717n
who need a night-out most. Le-
vinthal then brings them to a
swank hotel in service buses
and vehicles that hold wheel-
chair patients. After an excel-
lent dinner, Levinthal then
squires them to a game. When
they go to the theater, they sit
in the best seats in the house
