MERELY COMMENT

MENEL I CONlWlEIN
The Tribune complains that the
proprietors of Larman's pool hall,
where the shooting occurred" have
not been arrested.
This is a great pity; perhaps It
would crafty the Tribune if the pO-
lice arrested Bedford for getting shot
by Annenberg.
So far as one may judge, the Trib-
Une looks upon this carelessness on
the part of Bedford as a grave crime.
The theory possibly being that
everyone should leave town when the
Tribune's circulation manager de-
cides to do a little shooting.
Talking about Annenberg and rat
tlesnakes, a rattlesnake is also only
dangerous when it is scared yellow.
The Tribune refers to Max Amen
berg as "Mr Annenberg." Possibly
this is because Annenberg has be-
come such a pal of the managing
editor.
The boulevard link ordinance has
been passed.
II we had an auto wed probably
be tickled to death about this.
As it is, we think the money neces-
sary for boulevard links might be
better used.
Especially while garbage and gar
bage scandals threaten to make the
atmosphere as thick as cheese.
Which is worse, a few boys shoot
ing craps or a newspaper gunman
shooting holes in boys?
