SURVEYIN' The LADIES

W7ELL. gals. have now discovered you brunp
w this new look on yourselves
AS you can imagine. once in while - after
mabel, our waitress goes home - the talk here
IN the Wagon gets around to women In a refined
way mean.
Not long ago. nice-lookn lady grabbed our
front-door knob to let herself out An you would
have thought all our man customers necks
was connected to the door hinge
This beln' high-class joint nobody made no
cracks. The vote was unanimous
Mister Chet Swital broke the silence The
outfit work for" he says makes surveys. An
last summer we already knew that women was
goin to fall for the new look
You surveyed 'em?' Bushy Barnes asks.
Bushy runs the newsstand down at the corner.
WE SURVEYED EN- - interviewed 'em, that is"
says Mister Swital 'for the manufacturer of a
reducn machine. We called on three hundred
shapely but slightly heavy gals. Two hundred and
ninety-one of 'em voted for loose dresses - some
thin to give em little wiggin ROOM
Next we interviewed 'em about their girdles,"
Mister Swta goes on. All work an eatin' stopped.
One third of all the ladies thought they was
outrage ne continues. While two out of three
was pretty positive there had to be some changes
made before girde or a corset is goin' to be
entirely okay."
We think about these statistics an turn
the figures of those two thirds of the women
over in our minds.
Most gals" explains Mister Swital, is either
little hefty or headed that way. So you could
tell, before the new styles come out that somethin'
loose comfortable an girlish couldn't miss
Just then lady comes in. Ben gentlemen, all
us guys dropped the subject an avoided starin'
at her But out of the corner of our collective eyes
we made quick survey an caught her givin'
the old girdle hitch
We nodded, very solemn. to Mister Swital, who
left with the look of man who has finished one
job an is lookin' forward with interest to the
next one. -WALLY B0REN

Two Sport Pitcher
BY BOB DUNNE
APP NaWsfaaf11ras

- @Np " oAGGSsuA CD
MEMPHIS, Tenn. Charles
Conerly, the man from Mississippi
who made football passing history
this season, intends to cling to his
nickname of "Chunkin' Charlie
either on the gridirOn, the baseball
diamond or both.
Conerly was not mentioned in the
draft sessions of the pro football
leagues because two pro clubs al
ready have priority on his services
as a money performer.
The Washington Redskins of the
National loop recognized his talent
as far back as 1945 but Charlie
went into the Army that year. In
1946, the Brooklyn Dodgers of the
All-America Conference named the
Chunker in its draft.
But before he makes any deci-
sions about his football future, Con-
erly is considering a baseball ca
reer. He says the Detroit Tigers
and the Chicago Cubs have cOntac-
ted him about a contract.
He also wants to wait until he's
graduated from Ole Miss this
spring ito keep my amateur status
and pitch for the school team"
Sports writer's whO've seen Con-
erly in both roles say it's obvious
that he'll do much better in shout
der pads than skipped cleats. Thew
point to the fact that the national
collegiate athletic bureau picked
him and his receiver, end Barney
Poole, as "the best passing battery
IN modern times "
For the dOg-eared record again.
Conerly completed 1873 out of gag
heaves, made 18 touchdown tosses
and led Mississippi to it's first
southeastern Conference Crown
The same experts call Charlie "a
mediocre pitcher and mot a had
Outfielder."
Anyway, the "ROach"-anotber
name he earned by his zig-zag run
ming style-thinks he'd like the dou-
bic sports life for a profession. He's
been pitching pigskins and base
balls for free" quite a while now.
