CONCH
CH0WDER
BY RAYMER

The writer's group which meets
tomorrow at 213 Telegraph Lane at
8 pm. will be lively and interesting
if everyone turns in the character
sketch which is scheduled. New
comers who haven't had time to
write one are welcome anyway.
I've been dabbling around trying
to make up my mind, and decided
to do one on "The Character I'd
Like Most to Forget" The trouble
is, know so many! There was the
Armenian who was born in Bull
garia and who spied for the English
in the Turkish army: and the book
shop owner in Boston who made
passes until / broke his glasses; a
guy named MushruSh, who when
he was a senior and l a freshman
at college, refused to bring me
home on time and ] had to come
In a window, and was caught; the
Stuffy professor who recomn ended
that / transfer to another school
Il did) because / wrote a sopho-
moric essay called woman is Not
Just An Incubator; the tough J.
rish neighbor girl who dared me
to race her on roller-skates down
the steepeSt hill in our home town..
and then after we got started
swerved off and let me go on alone
to near destruction. / ended up in
a watering trough in front of the
local newspaper office and darn
near drowned before someone res
cued me; the naval officer who
insisted on arguing with a police
officer, and when said, "Shut-up,"
the policeman thought meant him,
and both of us had a paddy wagon
ride; and then of course there are
some marital echoes root-a-toot-
toot.
/ am reminded of a Laurel and
Hardy comedy of some years ago.
The boys had joined the Foreign
Legion" to forget" The command
ing officer lined up his new squad
and asked why they had joined up.
Laurel's reply was "To forget"
The officer flicked a crop and ask
ed, 'Forget what?" Laurel came
back with II forgot"
New Office at the fire depart
ment is completed with old guns,
helmets and pictures on the walls
and Oh course a checkerboard in
one corner. The domino markers
aren't there because the experts
keep them in constant use. .Won-
der who the officer was who dined
night at one of our popular
patio restaurants and who was en-
chanted by the violin and accord
ian music at dinner? He made
several requests. He also investi-
gated the large pink flowers on a
tree near the entrance. much to
embarrassment of Mary Carter
who confessed that the chef had
put up artificial ones for atmos-
phere. Mary also had a most amaz-
ing chat with me. Back in 1884
used to correspond with a man
named Allen Carter of Carters-
vile, Va. He wanted me to come
up and teach beginning horseback
riding in the community where
horses, hunts and daily gallops
were the usual. At first Mary
couldn't recall the man then
suddenly said, "Yes / 90 know
him. His wife was engaged to my
brother and he works in a bank
now" Coincidence never ceases to
startle me.
