This is not propaganda of all anecdotes is from Webb Miller's "I Found No Peace," which tells of the correspondent who, on an off day, wrote a feature story about a fabulous- ly rich baron on the Riviera who would invite his guest for a swim and give them bathing suits made from a dis- solving material. An American manu- facturer who read of the fabric, wired the Paris bureau of the press associa- tion asking for a sample of this cloth. The bureau chief in turn wired his correspondent to send a sample. The poor reporter ,upon investigation found that the entire tale was mythical, and ashamed to admit his error, he wired- "Can't.

At great What are you doing with those ears in your expense and waste of time, the staff has collabor- hand? ated in its efforts to bring together a collection of dirty jokes which have been current in the last few decades.

Stan Lee looked out of his window and sighed sadly. He /.s fi r hoped the last contest would rush along, so that he could break training and go out and enjoy himself as the rest of the fellows in his classes were doing. At times he was sorry he went out for the team. It wasn't so bad before he had be- come the star of the team; he could sneak out once in a while but now they watched him like a hawk. What was more, the coach placed more restrictions on him than on any other - member of the team. His leg work was so valuable that they were afraid to take any chances of his hurting them. For that reason, he wasn't allowed to attend dances, even during the early part of the evening. The coach wanted to have a special car pick him up and deliver him to his classes, but Stan Lee felt enough was enough and he put his foot down on that suggestion-of course, he put it down lightly.

He was the only one on the squad to get his effectiveness purely from foot work. At that, Stanley Lee thought perhaps the coach wasn't over strict.
