Pardon us. 5000 pigs and 2 children. ALCATRAZ:--2-gun Briscoe is now en- joying an indefinite stay at Alcatraz. It seems he drew some money out of the bank after hours. Some future, Josie!!! NEW YORK :-Max Flynn, better known as Salty , who owns the Salty Slurpy Sun has just informed us that his youngest son, Little Nutmeg , has won first prize f-or having the largest paper route in the whole New York State. NEW YORK:-Robert J. Bilyeu, president of the Radio Corporation of America, and his love-ly socialite wife, the former Nancy Dunker sailed for Europe for a vacation on the Riveria. Classy, Huh!!! Now for a commercial from our Sponsor, THE ALBERT GARING GESTER FIELD COINEANY. Here's a few words from Mr. Garing. Friends, and you are my friends. We dare them all to make this statement. My tobacco is the mildest, ripest, strongest, coarsest, of all tobacco leaves. Now can you find any other tobacco that can make that statement??? No you can't. Why??? Because no other tobacco company would want those features. Thank you. INDIANAPOLIS:-Joyce Meyers, now Mrs. Robert Bud Schmitt, is visiting her husband, a retired motorcycle race driver, who has served 25 years as a paratrooper. We se-e that Joyce still has her flirting ability though. Seems like she'll never lose that!!!! LAFAYETTE :-Professor D. C. McCor- mick, a Professor of Advanced Science at Purdue University, was chosen to speak at the Commencement of the 1953 graduates of Chalmers High School. Professor McCormick has been said to have improved the H Bomb 10095. MADISON SQUARE GARDEN :-Ezzard Charles, the N.B.A. Boxing Champ, has not come to yet, from a blow on the chin he received in a fight with Age- less Abe Patrick , a young up and down, I mean up and coming fighter. He floored the Champ in 1 second of the first round. It seems that the horse shoes on Abe's gloves helped a little. He couldn't hit the champ, so he took one glove- off and dropped it on his toe, and when the champ bent over in pain, Abe let him have it with the other hand. As you know Abe is a good clean fighter!!! CHEYENNE, WY.:-Darlene Schroeder, the girl with that million dollar horse face, er pardon me, I mean Horse Ranch, has just won 310,000 as first in a trick horse riding contest. Darlene's best trick was a fake fall off of a horse. This she had down pat. I wonder why????

He has the best Eb tire pump player in the world. His son is also in the orchestra. John the III plays a real hot Bb Phon- ograph. CHICAGO :-The VAN VOORST EXCA- VATING CO. has just cleared a large group of trees from a piece of land next to the Wigley Field ball park. It seems that the Co. is going to set up a new office.
