MISTAKEN IDENTITY
CAUSES HEADACHES
All Is Confusing With Two

meth u. Scott family, of suburban
East Cleveland, unwelcome fame
all because another Kenneth Scott,
professor of classics in Western Re-
serve university's Flora Stone Ma
Their college, is not listed in the
city telephone directory.
Professor Scott, an authority on
Fascism, is much in demand as a
lecturer. He does not receive the
attention due him, however, as it
goes to his amesake-Kenneth D.
Scott, an illumination engineer.
THE misdirected telephone calls
and letters aren't the worst part of
this mistaken identity business"
Engineer Scott said.
What is most annoying is that
those seeking Professor Scott won't
believe me when say that I'm not

with telephone callers who insist
that they are talking to the pro-
feSSor.
ION several occasions I've had to
use firmness in closing the door on
persistent searchers for Professor
Scott. They do everything but put
their foot in the door," he added.
He said that the callers-in-person
say he "looks like the professor"
Here is partial list of misdirect-
ed items which have come to the
Scott family addressed to Professor
Scott.
Invitations to speak on their trav-
els in foreign countries to which
they never have gone.
Poems and jokes on the New Deal.
(The purpose of these contributions
baffied the Scott family.)
Letters from Germany addressed
to ''kamerade
Engraved invitations to formal
dinners.
Money for speeches never made.
The Engineer Scots received a
check for lecture which Professor
Scott gave before local organiza-
ton.
The Scott family deducted no
compensation for being awakened
at all hours of the night by the
phone calls for the professor-and
they returned the check.

Although of minute size, the CHG
