"VILLAINWOOD" GONE
For years now, movie villains
have been crumpling the heroes,
and each other, with breakaWay
clubs, chairs, bric-a-brac and what
not. No one ever got hurt, though,
because the weapons were made of
/ light balsa and yucca tree wood,
and paraffin.
But now movie-makerS must de-
velop a substitute to preserve the
virility of the screen. There's no
more balsa and yucca tree wood and
paraffin for Hollywood to waste
over expensive nogginS. The air
plane industry has priorities.
