THE GREMLINS COME TO MEDINA As everyone knows, those aerial pixies, the gremlins, first appeared in England from some ShangrifLa of their own to harass airfmen. ?k The1n attached themselves to the R.A.F., and every British pilot soon knew whom to hlame if he had unexpected engine trouhle, snapped ailerons, suddenly jammed machine guns, or holes in wings or fuselage. Some time after Pearl Harhor the gremlins first made their appearance among the American Air Forces. By the summer of 1942 them were strongly entrenched with us and husy drinking up the contents of gas tanks, icing wings, climhing into gun harrels to deflect hullets, and making motors sound as if they had suddenly nconked out. Last Decemher them heard of Medina. Many promising lads could he found there who were fine potential victims for their mischievous designs. How much hetter these future fliers could he harassed and hefdeviled if them first looked the ground over carefully and hecame thoroughly acquainted. The very next afternoon them got their chance. The pilot of one of a formaf tion of homhers was out of sorts and defying the rule that gremlins must he treated with respect, he gathered up several in his hand and threw them out the window. To our misfortune them landed right in the 1943 Nledinian and set up headquarters! Neither pleading nor threats had any effect. The gremlins were here to stay, losing copy, hreaking plates, and hlurring artists' sketches in their insatiahle quest for inf formation ahout the lwoys. The staff has hrushed and erased in vain, for, as you see, some still remain. Perhaps you have had moments of uneasiness or have heen the victim of an un' explained prank. You have? Ahfh yes, it's them - the gremlins! izhvllfll referred to as a species or a group, grcmlins prefer to he spoken of as them. When their wishes are slighted in this matter, them are likely to become vindictive. Twenty-Three

SENIORS THE SENIORS LOOK INTO THE FUTURE THE BLATTER SHEET MAY 26, 1963 EMBEZZLEMEN T CHARGES FILED Judge Babcock will preside at a hearing on the Fahlman case to be held today at Hendershot Hall. The R. T. Elliott Com' pany has charged J. E. Fahlman with em' bezzlement involving 33,000,000 of munif cipal funds. Our civic protector, Mayor Seeley, has been conferring with District Attorney R. L. Westland about the case. The firm of Friedt, Fenn, and Friedt will represent the plaintiff. The defendant's at' torneys, Papp, Plants, and Pyecroft, im' mediately denied the charges and threaten to file a counter suit. The Sailer vs. Sailer divorce case has been delayed again. The defendant, who has asked for the restoration of her maiden name fSheltonJ, wishes to present some new evidence. Chief of Police Huntley and Fire Chief Gibson today condemned the court house building where the case is being heard. Washington News: CONGRESSIONAL CORRUPTION Congress is riding in a smoke cloud this week. Representative Barnes has been fuming again because the Hall Tobacco Bill is up for approval and Representative Smithberger threatens to organize a strong coalition against it. Chairman of the com' mittee Judkins is consulting with Steven Oravecz, lobbyist for the tobacco interests, about the passage of the bill. FINANCIAL STORMS Wall Street is bullish today as a result of the Seymour investments. Auble, the oil magnate, created a land slide on the mar- ket and it's raining oil in Wall Street.

P auline Uren CORNY CRITICISM-by Mugrage The Misses Ruth Meyers and Betty Boyd have just returned from Vienna, but rumor has it that they will be returning next month. What's up? Janice Fenton's academy for girls will be visited this afternoon by those advocates of a permanent Women's Army, Mary Jane Kruggle, Lois Kohn, and Shirley Garver. The results may be overwhelming. We'll see. MOVIES We predict that Geraldine Johnson's dress designs will go a long way toward making or breaking the Voschall Follies of 1961 The new musical review, Solid Sub' stance, is a flelightful blend of slapstick and beauty. The famous comedienne, Mar' ion Huffman, is tops in the wacky scenes while Warren Bart's Sunlight Sonata gives the audience a touch of the sublime. The famous Bucey, Holston, Martin trio constitute the solid part of the substance -and we mean solid! VAUDEVILLE A new variety show, starring Olive Rumph, opens tonight at the Becka Play' house and the boxoffice reports it is a sell out. In addition to those famous actresses, Steingass and Haller, in the exquisite Dance of the Winds, the show will feaf ture June Van DeVier of radio fame and Jeannette Swagley and Frances Elkins of Broadway. FROM THE BOOK SHELVES- by Bernice Kobb Macy Hallock's Twenty Years in a Bathtub has sold its millionth copy. Angello Gorfido's The Manly Art of Tiddly Winks is the Book-of'thefMonth for June. The public awaits Sally Foote's revision of the Harvard Classics with baited breath, but the Selzer Publishing Company prom' ises that it won't be long now. iContinued to Page 75, Twenty-Two
