Oooh, nooo! chanted Boldrum:
I neverm met a CARNIBAL,
I never hope to be meeten by one;
But I can tell you anyhow,
I'd rather meet than be eaten by

A

one!
I. . . don't like Carnabals, shud-
dered Boldrum.
Oh, Boldrum, cried Mitchell, you don't understand!
Oh, breathed Boldrum significantly: CARNAMELS!
I tried to eat a Carnamel once.
My propeller got so gooed up I had to soak it three days.
I blistered my paint, melted my aluminum inlay, and developed a
fuselage wheeze that lasted a week.
I don't like Carnamels, sniffed Boldrum.
Have what? inquired Boldrum.
Concessions, replied Mitchell.
Oh . . . whispered Boldruln weakly.
They're where human beings . . . continued Mitchell ..
Grumman Boeings? interrupted Boldrum.
Oh, Boldrum, wailed Mitchell. Why don't you see plain?
Boldrum obediently blinked his windshield wipers-then he blushed.
Jubilantly he shouted, Sea -planes!
CORONADALS, Coronadals, Coronadals onward!
Into the valley of death dived the six hundred !
Mitchell shook his head: If you can't come closer than Coronidal,
You have an air pocket foranoddle .
I have seen planes of very little brains-
But your brain, Boldrum,
Is in a veritable Doldrum.
