T'll tell you about the program I enjoyed, even though you wasn’t with me. We arrives in time to see the last act, which was a contortionist, one of these guys with more move- ments than an alarm clock equipped with nervous springs or a collegiate roadster in the hands of a whoopee driver. He was a tali guy built like he’d never caught up with his meals in time to do him any good, being so slim that a healthy tooth- pick alongside would seem uphol. stered. Tt weight was noise this lad wouldn’ even be a whisper, un- less you count what's above the cars, causing Noah to remark that if he fell outa a second story wine dow onto a clothesline the houses wife would mistake it for some- thing that blown from the neigh- | bor’s wash after having been left too long in soak. This bimbo ecould tie himself into more comical knots than a weakened macaroni stick, being able to do everything except turn inside t or make a one-man traffic jam.
