A COUNTY COMMISSIONER who shall rémain unidentified lost an eléction bet. He thought Charles Russell would defeat Al Magenheimer in the Republi-

can race for sheriff nomination, and his bad guess left him obliged to treat a group of politicians to a dinner in the Lincoln hotel Travertine room. . The commissioner showed up as arranged, but he'd neglected to wear a coat, Very soon, a waiter approached to tell the commissioner that he couldn't stick around in that semi-nude state. This evoked dubious grins and sly digs from his friends, who ventured guesses that he appeared without coat purposely, to avoid paying off his bet. Then one ingenious member of the party whispered in the ear of the head waiter. The head waiter left, returning with a white waiter's coat. The commissioner wore the substitute réluctantly, endur- # {ng as many jibes about his coat as his poor political guess. . . « Speaking of eating places, we got a laugh out of a buyer's strike at a small chain eatery on 900 N. Pennsylvania the other night. A man who came in for a cup of coffee did a double take when he saw Java had been hiked to eight cents a cup. “What'll it cost me for just a glass of water?” he asked sourly and the waiter jokingly responded: “Oh, two cents.” The man then ordered the proverbial tooth pick, glass of water and a napkin. He drank the water, ordered another half a glass which the waiter carefully measured out. Then, as he left, he dropped three cents in the automatic cashier, much to the amusement of other customers who also disapproved of three cents extra for coffee.

Downtown Picnic Grounds IT SEEMS that pranksters never will give up moving signs as a gag. Some cutie at Woodstock moved a “No Parking” sign from its proper place to a bench. Or maybe it wasn't a gag. Maybe the guy wanted. to reserve himself a place to rest his weary bones. . . . The famous cefirt house lawn has come into society. Used to be ’/the lethargic citizens lolled over the greenery. - Then, one day this spring, a lass took off her jacket. and sat happily on the lawn, sun-worship-ping, during her lunch hour, Sun-worshipping lasses always attract lass worshipping lads with the result that the lawn now sports cooing couples and picnic lunches during the work-a-day lunch hour, Poor Robert Young, the man who something is always happening to, got in the soup again recently, One of his birthday presents was an invitation to appear in traffic court. As if that wasn't bad enough, he went

Real Railroaders

COLORADO SPRINGS, July 26.—The two most photographed men probably anywhere are T. J. Weigand and Frank Smith, veteran engineers for the Manitou and Pike's Peak railroad. Mr. Weigand is now in his 31st season, and Mr, Smith is rounding out 22 Years as a cog railroader. Every time a train leaves the station in Manitou, the amateur photographers and miniature movie enthusiasts are there to catch it pulling out. When the train reaches the summit, there is always another crowd of picture-takers there to greet it. And, of course, they focus on the locomotive and like to get the engineer in their shots, “The cog road is in a process of modernization, and the little engines probably soon will be discarded in favor of Diesels. I asked Mr. Smith how he felt about their passing. “Well, operating the Diesels is an easy way to make money,” he said. “You just.sit at the controls and take it easy. Nice, clean work.” He wiped coal dust from his face with a piece of waste. “But for getting a kick out of your job, give . me those steam engines. You've got to be a real railroader to handle ‘em. Why, I've seen engineers from the flat country come here and hire out, and then quit half way up on their first practice run.” The road operates from about May 1 to Oct. 1. After that the tracks are snowed under. So the trainmen-have Jong vacations, or they take other jobs for the winter.

Science

HAVING SEEN the first atomic bomb explode over Bikini lagoon, having inspected the array of target ships on the following day, and having climbed aboard the battered battleship Nevada two days thereafter, I want to say this to the Amerfcan public: If you disparage or belittle the destructive power of the atomic bomb vou will be setting the stage for the greatest tragedy.in the history of civilization. You will, in effect, be writing your own death warrant. Don't be too impressed by Nevada did not sink. #1 do not claim to be an authority on battleship operation, but it is my sincere belief that had this been a battle the Nevada would have been completely out of operation after the bomb blast and that

the fact that the

every person aboard swould have died from the bomb’s radiation. We had hoped to board the Nevada on the

second day after the bomb blast, but at that time the radiological safety patrols still regarded the ship as too “hot.” It was not until 24 hours later that we were permitted aboard. For me, the important fact to remember about the bomb blast is that it sank five ships and damaged nine others. As Dr. Karl Compton, chairman of the joint chiefs of staff evaluation board, said to us on the Appalachian, no bomb in the history of the world ever did that much damage.

Certain Data Kept Secret FOR WHAT it considers valid reasons tional security, the high command of navy task force one has announced that certain data will not be made public. This includes precisely that data which is needed for any clear evaluation of the bomb’'s effectiveness.

water atom bomb was tried out in Bikini lagoon. The damage seems to have been considerable, and I cannot help feeling a little sad at the sinking of the aircraft carrier Saratoga. Her fame will live in the annals of the navy, and I suppose it is a perfectly good end for a valiant ship. However, 1 would have liked to sec her permanently on exhibition in one of our navy yards, so that her story could be®told to the young while they ac tually stood on her decks, Finally, last right, the OPA bill was passed. 1 hope its passage will insure a curb on inflation. Anybody who keeps house does not need to be told that prices are rising too rapidly and, while it may be true that meat is mdre plentiful, it is also true that it is much more expensive and beyond the reach of people living on moderate budgets.
