 lCopyrisht, 1850, py Bell Syndicate. Incl WASHINGTON = Some people seem to be laboring under the iin- pression that I enjoy being called a liar. Thick skinned as I am supposed to be, I do not.
 particularly do not enjoy being called a liar by Senator Taft as he virtually did the other day af- ter I reported that he entered into a deal with the southern bloc tc deliver six Republican votes to con- tinue the filibuster. I do not en- joy it because I like Taft and con- slider him a healthy influence ir government; second, because it gets me in wrong with my wife. Mrs P. happens to think. that Taft can do no wrong-a state of affairs which, unhappily, she does not al ways believe applies to her hus- band.
 In this case tried to argue with Mrs. P. that her idol from Ohio should at least exercise some or iginality. After all, have been called a liar by such celebrated figures as President Roosevelt and the senator from Ohio could cer- tainly have found more descriptive language. One of the fundamental requirements of a politician is inn agitation, and in this case Senate. Taft did not even show the inn agination of Harry Truman.
 In all seriousness, however, should like to point out that it's the easiest thing in the world fol a public official to hurl the charge of liar at a newspaperman but it's something else again to make il stick.
 By way of illustration, perhaps may be forgiven if I call the roll

time. was caddying for Jack Warner, and
Bob was carrying Crosbys bags. Bob sug-
gested that some day he and play golf
together. This we did the very next morning.
We both used my clubs because Bobs uncle
hadn't died yet.
1t was Hope who called my attention to
the fact that the game of golf is similar to a
comedy program. Furthermore, a good golf
swing is synonymous with clever quip.
Where's the Respense?
LET'S analyze this for minute. The golf
swing consists of backswing and follow
through. Both of these opposite motions
must be performed smoothly and with expert
timing to create the perfect golf shot.
In radio the jokes are similar to the golf
swing in that they consist of the backswing,
or the straight-line or feed-line. Once the
feed-line has been delivered, the comedian
must deliver, with perfect timing, the follow
through or punch-line to get ideal response.
Ideal response for a comedian is what is

each time passed the fifth hole, was able
to pay my respects to Uncle Harry. You see,
he was such golf fan that he asked to be
buried near his favorite sandtrap. Should
you ever play Hillcrest. pause at the fifth
hole. Look little to the left, in the rough.
There you will spy small, simple block of
marble bearing the touching epitaph, Here
Lies Harry Benny - Out of Bounds as
USUAL
An Unexpected Treat
Funny that hole should have been Uncle
Harry's favorite. It might have become
mine, too, except for an unfortunate incident.
The green lies about 100 yards from the
tee, and an easy fve-iron shot will get
you there, or whereabouts. Usually with
me IL 8 the latter.
However, the first time played it, hit
the best ball ever did, and when arrived
at the green, the ball was nowhere to be seen.
But one of my writer's, who was caddying for
me at the time, was already on his knees,
fervently bobbing his head to the ground,
and wailing ecstatically, "Ibn Allah Benny

Eventually, after much dickering, came

exactly one lesson to solve my dilemma. III

whole thing to me.
He called me over and said, ''Mr. Benny,

left-handed clubs"
