HUNGRY REPORTER DISCOVERS WAITER THROWS MEAN LINE Unintelligible Gibberish Brings Wanted Viands From Kitchen, “Soak-a-dough! Jumble two and Java!" Magic words! They brought milk toast, scrambled eggs and coffee. Later the Hungry Reporter in his frequent wanderings in search of exotic gastronomical creations stopped at the next place for a modest hamburger sandwich with a slice of pickle, a cup of coffee and a piece of apple pie. What he got-was: “Bargerpicanap! Draw one!” In the one-arm cases and the eat-while-you-run establishments, the average patron knows what he wants and orders It In one breath. He also knows the combination of food which fills him up and leaves him happy afterward. Waiters know these combinations. So they run them all together like goulash and get them out of the Kitchen separately. The Walters’ Union Handbook would read like this: "Clean up the kitchen"—hash. "Fry two: Hoch, hoofa!”—Two fried nggs and German fried potatoes. "Doubles! Voila.’”—The same with French fried potatoes. “Floaters!”—Two poaohad eggs on tout. "Shuffle ’em!”—Flap-Jacks. "Sinkers and a mug o’ murkT*—■ Coffee and doughnuts. "Shuck-a-howir*—Corn flakes. Et Cetera, ad Insari turn. Radio Programs Thursday Chicago, lII.—K Y\V (Central, E3S) 1135 A. M.—Table talk. 2:35 P.
