The count varies with the

the air and rain drives pollen to
the ground. A few hours Of
sunshine send the pollen flying

Hay FEVER season Is AZ nanu.
Ragweed, king Of the sneezy

Dear Mr.. Harrison:
I want to thank you in be-
half Of all the boys and girls
in 10A. That was a very nice
story you wrote about Arthur
Godfrey. I guess it is about
time that he started getting
people on his side. Everyone
of us have been against him
for so long now.
When he fired Julius La
Rosa, I thought he was wrong.
but when I see how awkward
and stupid looking and big
headed LaRosa is now ! see
why Arthur fired him.
AS to the latest firingS, he
should have done that years
ago. All those people were a
little fresh to him. I didn't
like that Marlowe's attitude.
The Mariners were Ok,
but a little too ordinary. They
did the same thing over and
over. That new group he has
on now is real groovy. Boy,
we really like them.
AS for that Ed Sullivan, he's
nothing but a sneaky news

weren't based on the attitude

one gave the guy a break. I
think he is q true Snowman

of courage to fire those people

You just can't run a business

with him 100 per cent. ..
I must disagree with you
about the group that sang
with him Wednesday "a week

great deal of possibilities. With
him behind them they'll go
far. They just need a little
coaching and they'll be okay
as far as I'm concerned. .

giving him a break.

Dear Bernie:
I have a question in the
form of a mild complaint.
What has happened to the
music pantominers that used
I'd be so plentiful on television?
. Washington viewers used
to be able to get Dotty Mack
on ABC-TV and locally we
could see Aletha Agee.
Miss Agee has always been
a favorite of mine since her
program called "Serenade" on
WTTG. I was so glad when
she was put on "Just for Fun"
(WMAL) because she had
more opportunity to lip-sing.
1t is a shame that someone
with as much talent as Miss
Agee can't be seen more. What
Washington TV needs is more
Agee and more pantomiming!
j. B.
(You see a lot of expert
pantomiming now - only it
isn't labeled. I refer to the big
variety shows and Spectacu-
lars, where much of the sing
ing will be pre-recorded. My
favorite pantomimers, in order,
are Aletha and Mario Lanza.)

With film? JOHN T.
