Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1942-06-16

Hence the
war chest, to
combine them
all in one. NH. PICKERING
AS Hardy Crowell said, There
were so many campaigns that
people were developing immun-
ity." Maybe they could call the
war chest the Immunity Fund.
On the way over 10 Herb
Eigcs' Office, fell by the way
side because DIR. Larry Richard
and Bill Cissna wero talking
about dogs.
As everybody knows, william
=. Knudsen sometimes calls
himself "the Great Dane" That
also happens 10 be the kind Of
. dog Knudsen has.
Larry Richard has . brother
Of knudsen's dog. As IL In ex-
planned 20 Larry, Great Danes
used to be even bigger dogs than
they are now. Occasionally q
throw-back CO m es along, q
dog bigger than average.
Both Knudsen and Richard
have throw-backs. Larry's dog.
named King. weighs 1877 pounds
hnd II only 10 months old. BY
he time no II full grown he
will be bigger than his father.
His father weighs 185.
Young Great Danes are very
clumsy because they grow too
fast.
My dog" said Larry. used
10 be so clumsy that he'd be
running along full speed and go
fat on his face for no reason at
all. Just get his legs tangled
up. And his tail! It's like
whip. Great Danes don't have
much feeling in their tails and
when they wag their tails, they
just bang into things. Mae
Chats Mrs. Richard) always
puts King outdoors when / get
home, because when he sees me
he starts 10 wag his tail. II we
left him in the house he would
knock over all the lamps
In case you still want q Great
Dane Il would, IL I had o place
Ia keep him. but i have only q
one-car garage), think Of the
food bill. One days ration for
King 10:
Three pounds Of horsemeat,
two tablespoons of cod liver oil.
two diabasic calcium tablets,
three eggs, cereal for Ave aver
age breakfasts, one vitamin G
tablet, one yeast tablet, and
snacls left over from the din
ner table.
Larry never could get his dog
10 stand on scales TO be weighed.
So he holds the dog in his arms,
and subtracts his own weight.
Now that King weighs 167, he
Il about ready to quit.
We also ran into shannon Cor
>pnack, just out Of the Veterans
hospital. I don't know his doc
Stsr's name, but he ought 20 get
q medal. When Cormack was
ssckest, the doctor stayed up all
night with him, taking time of
only to get coffee 30 he could
stay awake. People don't know
how much work the Veterans
Hospital STATS do for men who
were hurt In the last war.
Speaking of recoveries, Leo
Conroy, the pro at North Hills,
has been somewhat out of killer
for over a year but now is get
ting back in form. He shot a 66
the other day. and then had the
temerity to complain about II.
A 81 on the out nine, but a 35
coming in. He had some bad
breaks, he said. When a golfer
complains about a 35 at North
Hills, then he is fully recovered.
They have been painting our
Office for the last three days,
and we are all sick of the smell
of paint. And the painters,
Walter Ruebelman and Bill Mil.
are tired of having everybody
who comes In ask, what are
you doing?"
When a man Is painting, there
II no excuse for asking him what
he IL doing. But people do IL.
Ask any painter. It's one of the
crosses Of that trade.
Bill and Walter have finally
taken to replying, Were play
Ing badminton," Any other
oamters who want to use that
