Court Rules Word
"ScreWball" Is
Not SlanderOuS

Annapolis, Md, Dec. 8-(AP)-
You may not be smiling when
you call him "screwball, but
he cannot have you locked up,
The court of appeals ruled yes
terday that the 'word screw =
BALI does not connote opprob :
rum or reprehensibility."
Judge Edward S. Delaplaine,
Jr., added in a scholarly analy-
sis of slang, that the term "screw
BALI may singify:
Either Q a peculiar or &C.
centric person, like crackbrain,
crackpot, crank, queer duck =,
queer fish, nut, queer potato and
queer specimen, or (2) a stupid
or insane person, like batty, bug
house, crazy, boob, dippy, screw
loose and soft-head."
1t is not a criminal offense,
however, he said.

Volume expanded on the rise as

Oil were the center of attention.
Skelly, UP 8 to 1T, and Barnsdall,

the steels, and also some leaders
among the motors, had difficulty in
attaining the plus side, however.

steady with Eastern Air Lines fairly
active and higher on the news that
