Victor Andrade is 100 per cent
Indian, one of the most in
telligent ENJOYS in Washing

of humor. He told this story
on himself at a party the other
night.
One day a few years ago,
while he was a visiting profess
sor of political science at the
New School for Social Research
in New York, he was doing
some work at the Public Lii
brary. Deep in his research,
he suddenly realized that he
was late for an appointment
so he rushed into a telephone
booth to make a call. He was
in such a hurry he didn't
notice there was another man
ahead of him.
AS he fished for a coin the
man sputtered. What's the
idea? Didn't you see l was
waiting?" Senior Andrade
turned around to look at him.
oh" continued the Tuning
fellow. you're foreigner.
You foreigners ought to be
taught you have to be cour-
teous."
The willy Andrade, initiating
the accents of the Lone
Rangers faithful companion.
said, "Me no foreigner. You
foreigner. Me American In
dian"
The waiting man looked sud-
denly abashed. Make your
CALL" he said in resigned
tones, you we're ahead of me-"
Victor Andrade made his
call. finished. stepped out of
the booth and the man was
still waiting. Only he was so
intrigued with meeting an
Indian he had forgotten about
his own call. He asked if he
would have drink with him.
mo, not now" said Andrade
in the same gruff tepee tones.
And he rushed off before the
stranger found out he was a
South American Indian who
spoke excellent English with a
Spanish accent.

AN INTERESTING FIGHT
for particular rooms at the
convention cities is going on.
For instance, people with no
official claim to fame are doing
their best to get rooms as close
as possible to the suites of
leading figures. I guess they
figure if they walk by often
enough, they will not only see
who's going in and coming out
but sooner or later they will
be invited in themselves.
It's probably a lucky thing
for the Sherman Hotel in
Chicago that all of the big
delegations staying there didn't
want the same type rooms.
For instance. Missouri dele
gates requested 125 double
bedrooms, Is twin bedrooms
and 10 suites. Whereas, the
Ohio delegation asked for 100
