Asking New Name, Litigant Says
Dictionary Is Wrong.

Taking issue with the man who
wrote the dictionary on the question
of a proper noun, Gus Campbell
White, a specialist of the Department
of Agriculture, has appealed to the
District Supreme Court for aid.
No, it is not an agricultural noun
that is involved. 1t is Mr.. Whites
first name, Gus" He says 1t is a
meaningless abbreviation of one or
the other of two English names, and
that "for social and business reasons"
he wants it changed to Gordon, so
that his full name will read Gordon
Campbell White"
Mr.. Noah Webster, who wrote one
of the leading books on names, proper
and otherwise, says Gus" is a dimin-
utive Of Augustus" which is pure
Latin, and means exalted, imperial.
