••
April 21, 1944 . . . "Lt.
Marvin Schlossberg is report-
ed missing over Germany .. .
He pilots a Liberator . . .
(Marvin was a prisoner of
war and returned home to
later become one of Ameri-
ca's finest weathercasters —
Sonny Eliot.)
Feb. 16, 1951 . . . "Byron
Kreiger placed third in the
qualifying trials for the
United States fencing team
which will compete in the
Pan-American Games in Ar-
gentina" . . . (Byron was re-
cently named to the Michi-
gan Sportg Hall of Fame.)
March 2, 1951 . . . "Refus-
ing to shake hands with Ira
Kaufman, Isadore Cohen
jokingly exclaimed, 'It isn't
my time, yet,' to which the
local funeral director replied,
•The time to worry is when
you stop shaking.' "
March 9, 1951 ‘. . . "Asked
by his Roosevelt Elementary
School teacher who was the
first man, little Arthur Gen-
endlis answered, 'George
Washington' . . . and upon
being informed that it was
Adam, exclaimed, 'Well, if
you're talking about foreign-
ers, maybe he was.' "
LOOKING OVER A new
home floor plan, a woman
pointed to something on the
blueprint and asked Milford
Singer of J. Singer and Sons,
"What's this thing here going
to be? . . . Milford told her
it was an Italian staircase
. . . and the woman replied,
"Just a waste of money. We
probably won't ever have any
Italians coming to see us."
ELAYNE LEWIS, Sol's
frau, tells of the ventriloquist
who, unable to get vaudville
bookings, turned in despera-
tion to spiritualism and open-
ed a seance parlor . . . A
widow came in to talk to her
departed husband . . . Tire
ventriloquist did his stuff, and
his patron was delighted .. .
She paid a handsome fee and
asked if she might come
again the following week .. .
The ventriloquist, new to his
role, replied, "Madam, I'll
not only let him speak to you,
but I'll drink a glass of water
at the same time!"
