Two Aussies in Bush

Then what's all this malarkey I
hear about Australian" demanded
A. H, reaching for an out-of town
newspaper which had slipped past
Goebbel's guard while he was out
to lunch. 1T says here that they
have a threat in the market. 1t
says they are liable to beat our
brains out. In the first place, what
are our tennis players doing with
brains? That's unconstitutional.
In the second place, why didn't we
anschluss Australia while we were
at it? What's the matter with our
scouting system?"
Australia is too far away, A. H" !"
explained GoebbelS. Il knew they
had couple of fair tennis players
down there, but l figured that

There had better not be any more

They bring my Nordic back to me

around here is less talk and more
results. If my all-European Davis
Cup team fails to lick the AuStral-
ians, I will cut all your speeches
from $4,000 words to 25,000 until
further notice. That's all, boy"
They tell me Goebbels stumbled
from the room in a blind panic at
this threat, and was so unstrung
that he skipped a sentence in his
luncheon address to the Rotarians.
Be that is it may, Joe has his
troubles cut out for him. The Aus
tralians are 2-to-1 favorites to beat

early simon pure Nardic with ham
dlebars and real leather fixtures,
will dock at our shores shortly to
investigate the nefarious plot of
Australia to steal the Davis Cup.
Rumors of this hideous scheme
reached the ears of the Fuehrer
only a little while ago. After all
the trouble he had been to, in the
last couple of years, to anschluss a
nation here and grab another there,
just to build up his team, the news
upset him quite a bit.
Send for Joe Goebbels!" the
leader yelled to his attache.
When Goebbels appeared on the
mat, Herr Hitler went into the sub
ject thoroughly.
Listen, Goebbels, you know every
thing" he said.
That's right, A. H." said the
one-man newspaper business mod
estly.
Il thought our Davis Cup team
was supposed to be impregnable," I"
