Toke eMyWord for 1t
By Fronk Colby

Augusta: Why is it that every
bonus offered on radio and TV
always must be absolutely
free? Isn't that needless re-
dundancy?
A. Well, it is redundant: but
it is more emphatic, and carries
more of what the advertising
man calls punch" than is sug-
gested by the simple word free"
see nothing Objectionable in
absolutely free"
Macon: What is the proper
pronunciation of the plural form
of fungus-FUN-guy or FUN
jy?
A. The plural of fungus is
either: Fungi or funguSes Fun
gus, of course, has the hard "g''
sound, thus: FUNG-gus, and the
English plural funguses, also
has the hard "g":: FUNG-guSs-
ez. But the Latin plural, fungi,
properly has the soft "g": FUN
jy. Incidentally, fungus is a
Latin word which means "mush-
room"
New York: How is the word
dilettante pronounced, and what
does it mean?
A. Dilettante is an Italian
word which refers to a dabbler
in the arts, or a superficial anna
teur. Pronounce it: DILL-uh-
TAHNT-ee; or: DILL-uh- TAN
tee.
Newark: What ailment takes
the place of the fashioned
PHTHISIC?
A. Phthisic, pronounced: TIZZ-
TX, was once used to designate
any disease of the throat or
lungs. 1t has given way to the
word PHTHISIS, pronounced: !:
THY-Siss. wasting pulmonary
tuberculosis"
Pasadena: Whis is correct,
Come quick" or Come quickly? ?
A. Reference to gram m I
Evening star., 1953-08-03

books and dictionaries shows
that both quick and quickly may
properly be used as adverbs;
Evening star., 1953-08-03

therefore. it is correct to say:
Come quick, or: Come quickly.

BY GAYLE TALBOT

NEW YORK R-So far as it is
possible to detect at this point, Bill
Week, the gay young president of
the st. Louis Browns. finally has
managed to get himself across a
barrel.
His demand for a cut of televi-
sion profits when his club is play
ing on the road has caused the
Yankees, as a retaliatory measure,
to chop the Brownies off their
night game schedule at the sta.
dunn.
This viii prove quite a financial
blow to Weeks outfit. which must
depend to an important extent
upon its 'take" in the richer
American League parks until it
improves sufficiently to attract
bigger crowds at home. Daytime
games between the Yanks and
Browns at the stadium are notori-
ously poor draws.
So, Weeks hand not only has
been slapped vigorously out of the
TV jam jar, but he has been Shorn
of several of his best road dates.

SPORTS ROUNDUP

The night games he lost viii be
divided among the Cleveland Indi-
ans and Boston Red Sox, who are
not numbered among the poor boy
clubs.
There appears to be nowhere
Week can turn either for redress
or sympathy. His own league voted
him down at its recent meeting
here. He can get no help from
Commissioner Ford Prick.
'It's strictly league matter and
not within my province at all, I"
Frick advises us. 81 have talked
about it with Bill, but l did not re-
gard that as an official protest. If
| should receive one would have
to tell him the same thing I've
told you"
There remains, seemingly, only
the courts, and anyone who knows
a baseball magnate these days
knows a man Who would walk
around the block 70 avoid passing
a courthouse.
The only thing certain Is that
Sportshirt Bill viii dream up some
thing. He always has before, and
he won't be happy across that
barrel.
