RAMBLING AROUND . . . Delovely Pat Barnett, the girl with that lovely smile, is still popularizing George's Bar and Orchid Room, where she dishes out fine service . . Leroy (sporty) Johnson and yours truly were out sporting t'other evening. . . . Lovely Odessa (bright eyes) Wooten Graham, formerly of Terre Haute, sister of Jimmie and Tommie Wooten, technicians for Eli Lilly at General Hospital and Betty Taft, were out plavin' on the midway t'other Tuesday nite. . . . Jumped into the Sunset t'other nite and met congenial Taylor Seaths, No. one man at the spot and things got groovy. . . . Missed Cy Graham of the Subway Club, but will pick up on the fella subsequently. . . . The exhilaratin' Dorothy Henry and jeauteous Juanita Hobbs were out playin' hard last Saturday. . The girls caused a stampede in every play-spot visited and the men just could'nt keep their eyes from wondering. . . . The gals are real gone. . . The fabulous Lola Barbee dropped in to say hello, and told us of her forthcoming trip to Phila-l delphia. See next week's paper. SCOOPIN' THE NEWS . . . This colyum has never tried to 1 "scoop" the news or a news story. . . . We have always handled i the news like a mother does her new born babe, with love and tenderness. . . .There's alotta news we could write about peo- * pie, but, after careful consideration, we decide that it's best not to do so, if it does not serve a purpose. . . . Very few things happen that we are not aware of, but some of these things are either too hot to handle or they will hurt somebody. . . . And '"e never intend to do that. . . . We picked up on an item t'other week in another paper, which served no particular purpose, other than to embarrass the subject. We had known about the incident for several months, but could find no reason for publishing it. . . . When we print a scoop it will be a scoop and you can bet your last dollar, or in the words of Betty Taft, you can unloose yourself from some "bread." Such things like what they are trying, to do to a certain school principal and a real estate man tor instance.
