Writer sees many ways to serve newspapers

WASHINGTON UPI — A newspaper with breakfast is part of the morning ritual for many people. But how about a newspaper for breakfast? A bowl of shredded Wall St. Journal for instance ? Or a scrambled Chicago Tribune? Sound tasty, eh? Well, be patient. Vitamin-enriched newspaper flakes, brimming with crunchy goodness, may be the next thing in the line of breakfast cereals. - At least that is the projection I make from a recent experiment in cattle feeding. Researchers found that a group of heii'ers fed a mixture

of newspapers and molasses gained weight and appeared as healthy as heifers fed a standard high quality feed supplement. If such a diet benefits cattle, it seems logical that human beings would thrive on it, too. In which case the New York Times might change its motto to: “All the news that’s fit to eat.” The food section of your favorite daily could print recipes for newspaper cuisine. Then you eat the recipes. When fish comes wrapped in old newspapers, you can throw the fish away and broil the

wrapper instead. And when someone makes us newspapermen eat our words, we can invite guests. The main advantage, however, would be the infinite variety that newspaper dishes would bring to the menu: New England boiled dinners consisting of the Boston Globe, Providence Journal and Hartford Courant; Southern-fried Montgomery Advertiser served with hush puppies: the St. Louis Post-Dispatch under glass. Anyone on a bland diet might try poaching the Christian Science Monitor. Sunday brunch: Sports sec-

tion en casserole, chopped fresh society pages with cream sauce and a mixed columnist salad. For those who like imported delicacies, canned London Financial Times, caviar spread on toasted Pravda, frozen La Prensa editorials flown in from Argentina. Admittedly, some newspaper cuisine might be a bit salty. I wouldn't recommend serving moo goo Drew Pearson without soaking the column overnight. But think of the convenience! When your wife insists on going out to diner, simply take her to a newsstand.

SAIGON UPI—Green Berets smashed Monday night the first Communist tank drive into the Saigon area, military spokesmen said today. American sources reported U.S. warplanes had gone into action against North Vietnamese forces rampaging in

neighboring Laos.

In a rising tide of Communist attack, guerrillas today fired six-foot-two rockets into Saigon's Tan Son Nhut w^arbase and destroyed 120 houses in a nearby government army camp.

Legless youth classified 1-A LOS ANGELES UPI — A youth who has been legless since birth appeared at the induction center in a wheelchair to convince the Army he is unfit for military service. Mark Persons. 19, Santa Ana, Calif., registered for the draft a year ago and was told he would have to present documented evidence from a doctor before a deferment could be granted. “I thought it so ridiculous that they should ask me to prove I didn't have any legs that I didn't bother,” he said. "When I received my draft card a few r weeks later, it was marked 1-A.” This month Persons received orders to report to the U.S. Army Induction Center for a physical examination. Monday, his father drove him to the appointed place in Santa Ana to be picked up by the Army bus. “There wasn’t anybody there with the authority to tell him not to go. so I put him on the bus,” said Neil Persons. Mark arrived at the center in his wheelchair and w^as sent home by Spec. 5 Gary Gelman. “This really isn't too uncommon.” Gelman said. “We get cases like this from time to time."

Good Samaritan has Heloise-

dose call with a bullet

CHICAGO UPI—James Walker’s good neighbor policy landed him in the hospital Monday, a bullet from a police revolver perilously close to his heart. Walker was awakened early Monday by unusual noise and hoarse threats from the next door apartment of his pal Albert Anderson, 51. Walker leaped from his bed, grabbed a pistol, and burst into Anderson’s apartment, where three men had taken $50 and a wrist watch at gunpoint and demanded more. The good Samaritan held the bandits at bay and sent Anderson running outside to summon police. “Walker came up behind the men and had his gun on them before they knew what was happening,” Anderson, told police later. But after Anderson left, the gunmen made a break for freedom. Walker fired one shot, bringing down one man. The other two fled into the waiting arms of police. In the confusion, police burst into Anderson’s flat. Walker, gun in hand, wheeled, startled, toward the door, his pistol pointing at the arriving officers. “His gun was directed toward

i me,” said Patrolman Knightly, “and I fired.”

Walker undenvent emergency surgery. Finkley’s alleged accomplices were lodged in the county jail. The state’s attorney’s office : said that based on the facts, "there was no evidence of wrongdoing on Knightly’s part.” A fellow policeman, Sgt. John Pratapos, said Knightly had no choice but to fire at Walker. “When you answer a robbery-in-progress call,” Pratapos said, “you go in with your gun drawn. And if you see someone pointing a gun at you, you have to make up your mind pretty quickly. “You can’t wait to ask questions. That’s what happened here.”
