CHOICE MORSEL
 It Says Here
. By BOB HOPE
RIVER WITH HFAD


 St. Louis-We left Chicago in the afternoon and had smooth hour and half flight down here. St. Louis is known as beer town. In fact, this is the only polnt on the Mississippi where the river flows by with a head on it.
 But the people here really do drink lot of beer. As we came over the suburbs the airplane started bouncing around and I went up front and said, "Is this due to rising air current caused by the heat?" And the pilot said, NO, caused by the burping."
 After landing we dropped in at the shriners Crippled Chil- drens Hospital here, then had a last bite and went on to Kiel Auditorium. That's a sort of Grand Central terminal with a balcony. The ceiling was SO high that when I laid an egg an eagle flew down and started pick eting me.
 I'd sprained my wrist on the way over and I stepped out on the stage with my arm in a sling. The manager of the St. Louis Cards took one look at me and offered me s2,OOO a week. He thought was baseball pitcher just back from Mexico.
 Dizzy Dean was at the show. You remember Dizzy, the Bud Abbot of baseball. The Dig is an old golf partner of mine. He plays pretty rough game too, although he is a trifle eccentric, He doesn't feel right about hit tlng the ball unless his caddy Keeps tossing pop bottles by his head and yells Take the bum out" and every time he gets in the rough he always sits down on a bench and sends in pinch hitter.

Ragging the

BY Elsie Jaye

Dog bites man, still not news.
BUT when a mans wife opens
the door and lets the neighborS
dog in, and same goes to mans
bedroom and bites him, that
should be news of a sort. Recip-
lent? Johnny Haynes.
Did you get to the Party
tossed by our Local? If you did,
then l think 1 can safely say you
had a time. Course it was a
little unhandy to have to run up
stairs to get the stuff" but no
one seemed to mind at least not
while I was singing the suds,
cause I'm sure everybody there
brought me their glass at least
a dozen times. Whew! Did /
work up a sweat.
At last 7 M speaks. The mite
crew would like to know when
the company is going to appoint
night supervision so the Union
shop committee and stewards
will know who to go to in re-
CARDS to union bushes or any
other business concerning the
employees on nights.
l think it would be appro-
pirate for me to thank all the
committee on our party for a
good job we'll done. Especially
Joe Soldner and his two sons
who did a swell job of setting up
the bar and getting a profes-
sional job on the beer, and Pat
Patterson and her girls for the
swell sandwiches with real meat
in 'em. And "Toots," too, for
handling the other incidentals.
Bill Kenny popped up with
some choicy tid-bits but refuses
them for publication,
Complaints have come to me
about the strange habits the
tools in Assembly No. l have
formed. 1t seems as though they
have grown feet and are now in
search of new homes. Anyone
finding them please send them
back home.
We hope to have REAL
scoop for you next week. So
keep watching won't you.

RCA Grants UE
Increase

NEW YORK, Feb. 4 (LPA)-
First break in the electrical in
dustry's solid front against SUBJ
stantial wage increases came last
week when Radio Corporation
of America granted a raise of
171zc an hour to 5000 workers
at Camden, N. ].
The settlement, which also
calls for the pay hikes to be
retroactive to Oct. 7, 1945 and
provides for six paid holidays,
was reached without walkout.
Elsewhere throughout the coun-
try, however, 100000 striking
members of the United Elec-
trical, Radio & Machine Work.
ers-CIO kept 79 plants of Gen
eral Electric, Westinghouse and
the electrical division of Gen.
ersl Motors shut down tight.
The union asked for Csc an
hour increase at the Camden
plant as it has with the big
three. GE has offered pay hikes
ranging up to 15c an hour, GIN
to 131zc and Westinghouse a
45-hour week with time and a
half for the last five hours.
Efforts to mediate the strike,
which began Jan. Is, proved un-
successful but discussions were
scheduled to resume. Twenty
one Congressman, meanwhile,
signed a statement declaring
that the strikers deserve full
support in their grim struggle
for a substantial wage increase
to compensate for the reduction
in take-home pay and for a de-
cent American standard of liv-
ing"
