■ft Show Answers S.Public's Requests Ping Pong Playing Cat One Request . HOLLYWOOD, UP — The stars j the public has asked to .See on television so tar have included be* sides Jackie Gleason and Imogene Coca, a cat that plays ping pong and a Hindu mindreader. They’re the luminaries of' “You Asked for It,” the only TV program that the audience "writes.” Master of ceremonies Art Baker digs up for the ABC show almost anything the public requests. To date, only Margaret Truman and a high diver have stumped him. “Many listeniers ask for Margaret Singing with Harry Truman accompanying her,” Baker said today. “We thought that would be in bad taste, and impossible to get, anyway. "Others want to see the man who drops from a scaffolding with a rope around his neck. But that would he bad for kids.” \ Otherwise. Baker’s staff of researchers have turned up nearly 400 oddities in the 2% years the show has been a video favorite. They'vb found a man who saws a woman in half and magician who duplicates signatures blindfolded. At the command of the viewers, the program illustrated adages by putting a bull in a China shop and HEARING EXPERT RETURNS TO DECATUR SONOTOVE’S HEARING SPECIALIST, J. M.

introducing an elephant' to a mouse. Baker’s favorite act, he said, was the woman who feaches babies bbw to swim. The most requested item is a newsreel film showing tfie collapse of the narrow bridge at Tacoma, Wash. One of the most difficult jobs was fulfilling the yen of a fan to see a bucks. “We got it in 10 dollar bills fromthe federal reserve people after weeks of negotiations,” srrtiled the white-haired Baker. The program sends a camera crew all over the country to oblige the fans — to Portland. Ore., to photogj-aph that wing pong-playing cat, to. Canada to see a log-rolling dog. the program runs into snags. A boxing kangaroo decided not to box. A cowboy’s horse smelled a wrestling bear and refused to enter the ABC studio. "But it’s much more fun than movies,” said Baker, a veteran of character roles on the screen. “On one show I came out of an Indian teepee in a buckskin outfit to. interview the first stenographer. changed into a pith helmet to show an electric! eel, rushed into a pool-ropin to interview a wom&n pool shari and put my tie back on to introduce two acrobats. "That’s great for the ham in me. I couldn’t do that in movies.”

To avoid injury to the crop do not apply in excess of one and bne-half pints of 2,4-D per acre, advises cpunty agent, L. E. Archbold.

Any time in May or early June is suggested as best for spraying thistles that are growing in wheat and oats. The amount of 2.4-D that can be applied without injury to .the crop will retard growth ; of the noxious weed and prevent Seed development, say the county agent.
