By DIANE SPIRITUAL
In our world of foregone pasts and coming futures, looking for
something tangible to conceive-to grasp that which is firm and
strong and pulsating, to fill the aching void, we are again turning
to It.
In answer to those who point to strife, suffering, starvation hos-
tilities, pain, want, fear, despair, cowardice, ugliness and downright
bad manners which permeate the earth, one need only enumerate
the joys and raptures of a glowing sunset painting the deep blue sea
with daring strokes of blushing pink and globs of golden sunbeams;
of endless fields of feathery wheat stalks, undulating lazily in a cool,
heaven-sent breeze; healthy, happy, chortling, bronzed babies, drool-
ing rich, beige pablum on their snowy, white bibs,
The list concludes with: the grace and precision of a nerve-
taut athlete braced for flight, poised for the attack or the defense,
girded for the battle; charity, hope, patience, wisdom, knowledge,
money, sex.
I appreciate it, not just in a mechanical way but more perhaps
in ways which are obvious at the moment only to me. I am numbed
in It's rhythmic splendor and in man's creative strength. I begin my"
week with It in the sanctity of my room and hold It in my day to
day activity in every way throughout the week. I have never met an
individual from whom I could not learn something and I must admit,
I've been told I'm pretty good.
Yed, it is in conception that one may truly conceive.

By SAM O'BITUARY
Herr Slander Von Zollander is
dead.
The free world was shocked and
electrified at 6:53 a.m. today to
learn the tall, lanky anti-Com-
munist crusader died quietly in
his summer home on E. William
St.
Cause of death was called
heart failure by Coroner Edward
G. Ramshorn. However, local
palice were investigating pos-
sible faul play. An eight-inch '
knife was found buried in the
small of Von Zollander's large .
back. The accompanying note
read: "I hate you."
Detective Sgt. Clawed Bowles
told reporters if evidence of mur-
der turned up, he was sure the
motive had already been discov-
ered. As newsmen scratched their
bald heads, Bowles winked know-
ingly at the crumpled piece of
paper.
