Peter Pan Hartman" said
things were getting ''bewitched
up" For one thing. he had a
sore throat from coughing. up

So he asked a club member
impersonating New York's Mayor
Robert F. Wagner to tell Mr..
Stevenson how he felt about him.
And to the score of Sincerely, :"
there comes this song:
Sincerely, oh. yes. sincerely
I'm forever for you, Adldi,
You're JfrSt-dtter me-"
Then Peter Pan announced
the great moment had come He
would teach the Democrats how
to fly. He said it was really
simple.

and just spread it out like this" "
Dramatically waving ,diaphanous
wings covered with dollar signs,
he cried: Il fly, I f1y"-and fell

That's all right, Peter Pan
Hartman" consoled Capt. Hook.
"a good fight is one you can walk
away from. Well outfly those
snollygosters yet"
And he asked Speaker Sam
Rayburn" to tell how the Demo-
Gratis would win the 1856 presi-
Dental election. To the tune of
''Darktown Shutters Ball." the
Speaker" made this musical
prediction:

The Gridironers, wearin G
parkas, ski suits and mountain
climbing paraphernalia, cooked a
sardonic eye at the conduct of
foreign affairs. The setting was
the summit Of Mount Everest,
where an exploratory Big Four
conference was supposedly being
held.

fully:
"Wampum? We got Harri-

"Took Mister Hartman of

Speaking Of Davy Crockett,

claimed to be Senator Estes

He was accompanied by a ragged
character announced as Senator

hurt by the big depression of

He urged "Kefauver" to tell

Capt. Hook told Peter Pan
there was another Democrat he

President Eisenhower's tele-
vised news conferences were
-broiled in a skit showing
well-known Washington cores
londents studying how to be-
come "television hams" and
formulate questions.
The hit of the skit was the
answers, which were taken from
tape recordings of the Presi-
dents remarks during recent
press sessions as he replied to
a different kind of questioning.

Responds to Toast
Mr.. Eisenhower responded to
the toast to the President, the
only one offered by the club, but
his remarks we're off-the-record
Other speakers were Gov
Averell Hartman of New York
for the Democrats and Gov
Goodwin Knight of California for
the Republicans. What they said
was off -the-record. too, in ac-
cordance with the Gridiron tradi-
ton that reporters are never
present"
In an Inauguration skit. a
group of sight-seers was puzzled
when the barker on their bus
kept pointing out places in
Washington's Foggy Bottom dis
trict where, he said, the Presi-
dent used to play as a boy. What
President, they wanted to know?
And Mr. Eisenhower answered
from the head table:
Everybody knows that. 1t was
Edward T. Pollard of the Wash
ington Post and Times-Herald,
the President of the Gridiron
Club"
President Pollard, in his
speech in the dark" sounded
the keynote of the evenings
entertainment.
He said that while President
Eisenhower looked hopefully to
the Far East, some of his Re-
publicans on the Hill are not
very happy. Senators Knowland,
Bridges and Jenner say that the
only thing we have to fear is
peace itself.
Afraid to Attack.
That's the way things go
around here" he added. THE
Democrats are afraid to attack
the President, and the Republi-
cans are afraid to support him.
Mr.. Pollard found that at
home we have lost interest in
Red hunts.
But that hasn't stopped the
Democrats. They turned to Wall
Street and investigated pros
perity."

States Marine Band Orchestra,

But "Knowland" still was not
satisfied. And an imitation Sen.
Leverett Saltonstall (R.. Mass)
told him that President Eisen-
hover is more popular than the
Republican Party" the Senate
minority leader replied shortly:
Who isnt?"
Down Gettsburg Way
"Knowland" said that what he
wanted was for the President to
have "just what he wants
down Gettysburg way" The or
chestra struck up How va Con-
ma Keep En- Down on the Farm, "
while he and the chorus sang:
"How'm / gonna keep him

After he's seen D. CO.
HotD'p I gonna keep him from
stag dinners,
Folks NTH big names, and
opening games?

A facsimile House Republican
Leader Martin remarked that ''if
the boys don't vote right on the
roll calls on Capitol Hill in 1855,
it will be waste of time to, call
the roll at the Republican nation
al convention in 1856.
And a quartet of alleged Re-
publican leaders sang this ap-
peal, to the tune Of Melody OF
Love-"
when the roll calls ringing,
Vote with me.

thing that talked louder than
all else.
Captive Audience?
II address my remarks to every
good Republican-and most of
them are right here in this

tune of open Up Your Heart"
he sang:

We're In an dtDtul fiji.
It's sure to cost d-plenty

The finale of the G. o. P. skit
featured a solo by a member of
the club impersonating Vice
President Nixon, who said he had
given considerable thought to
what would happen If President
Eisenhower should not run again.
The music was from the torch
song, After You've Gone" and
he sang right to the President
himself" this message:

NATIONAL COUNCIL OF CHURCHES
BACKS AID TO VICTIMS OF
ECONOMIC SANCTION I'm SOUTH
Bishop Greene, Rev. Jernigan Extends
Aid To Negroes White Friends

Chicago, Ill.,, March Is The
powerful National Council of
Churches, representing some 80
orthodox and protestant denomina-
tions, last week called for finan-
cial and legal aid to minority
groups who are victimized by "eco-
nomic strangulation" because they
speak out for civil rights.
The resolution, passed unani-
mousIy by the interracial body,
was originally introduced into the
committee by AME Bishop D.
Ward Nichols of New York.
White Citizens Councils were
specifically condemned and the
resolution charged them with be-
ing instrumental in getting banks
and other agencies in their locali-
ties to foreclose mortgages, deny
credit to and refuse jobs to those
opposing segregation"
The National Councils General
board, which passed the resolu-
ton at the meeting here. urged
churches Ito explore ways in
which denominations could assist
with this or similar emergencies
and said that "this application of
economic pressure to silence citi-
zens is d means of impairing both

civil liberties and civil rights"
The resolution was brought to
the floor by the National Councils
policy and strategy committee and
presented by DR.. Franklin Clark
Fry, committee vice-chairman and
president of the United Lutheran
Church.
Most specific suggestion in the
resolution was one calling for de-
posting money in banks that will
lend money to Mississippi econom-
ic victims. Attention was called
to deposit already placed in the
Tri-State Bank of Memphis for
the purpose of making loans to
minority groups" who are denied
loans and other services because
they speak for Indignation.
The word Negro was originally
posed by Bishop Nichols but when
the resolution reached the floor,
AME Bishop S. L. Greene and
Baptist leader the Rev. w. H.
Jernagin of Washington suggested
that the statement be extended to
include amy group or individual"
white friends of Negroes will be
prosecuted, warned Rev. Jernagin.

there were many cases of economic
