FORTUNATELY the monster who aroused me from my slumber kept his distance from my fork with which I had trouble stirring the coffee. At the station the same gayety prevailed. I took one look at the special ‘rain which was (I aate to use the word standing) gasping on the track which is used to get it started and refused to budge an inch.

NEW YORK, Dec. 4—Friday morning Leo the Lip Durocher came by my table in a big saloon and gave it to me straight how he spent eight hours on a plane sitting beside—and talking to Greta Garbo. * “What a combination!” I said. “The Lip and Garbo, who wants to be alone!” “Listen now, that Greta’s wonderful,” said the quiet-by-nature manager of the N. Y. Giants. “When you see her up close, ¢ she’s really got a beautiful # kisser. Real sharp chiseled fea- § tures.” }

THEIR MEETING was an-ac-cident, The Lip told the B.W. i and Gentleman Georgie Solotaire gia and me as. we were sitting there Leo Durocher in this joint. The Lip was standing but was bent over the table talking excitedly. ; “I got on the plane in L. A.” the Lip said, ‘and I-went to my usual seat next to the exit. “She sits next to me and I notice that she’s so nervous that her hand is shaking on the arm of the seat. “Finally I said to her, ‘What the hell is it with that shaking? « “What the hell are you doing with that rapping on the arm?’ I said. ‘You're making ME

oe & 9 IT TURNED out it was her first trip. “Sn I sald to her, ‘What are you nervous about? =It goes up: and comes down either safe or in a heap, so why worry?’ “1 guess,” Leo interjected, “she'd never had any bum talk to her before like I did. “She got calm. Then they bring the food. Now I'm a steak guy. A steak and meat and tatoes guy. Pe “All ball players are steak guys. I ate mine real fast and then I notice the salad. “I said to her, ‘What is it with you and this Gayelord Hooser, Houser, whatever the hell it is, and those salads?’ “I said, ‘I never touch salads. I got an expression, ‘Salads make Your betes soft.’ > @

“WELL, WE really got along fine. She talked and she was wonderful, We came into Newark and it was jet dark. “They got two cabs there for about 50 people. A guy comes up to me and says ‘Leo, you want me to save you a cab” “So 1 give him a sawbuck and he holds the cab. “Then we loaded Greta’s bags and mine and - another lady's in the cab and off we go leaving everybody else waiting, “Greta didn’t know I'd given the guy a saw. “So she said, ‘How do you do those things?’ “I said, ‘You gotta be alive or you finish in the second division! - “Aftefward I called up Laraine and told her about the trip and that she was right in what she always said about Greta—that she was a wonderful woman, “Usually I sleep on a plane trip,” Leo said,

~NEW YORK, Dec. 4—A lot of people, if my accumulated mail is” any evidence, got mighty ,sore over the blackmail advertising campaign which was designed to make the kiddies cry for television, thereby pressuring papa into a forced purchase. This was regarded by man—mostly parents without TV sets int their: oo oo homes—as real dirty pool. ; All the agency did was to run a pation-wide campaign shaped to make te nonownership of TV %° punishable by social ostracism.
