A Correction
And Apology

The Petal Paper regrets the
omission of one fact in the news
release of Mr.. Cornpone Pu Mean
derthal's announcement last week.
In view of the omission, the pa
per extends its apology to Mr..
Neanderthal.
AS to the possible manager for
his forthcoming campaign, Mr..
Neanderthal stated that he would
possibly" get DR.. Nelson, retir-
ing president of Mississippi Col
lege for the post.
He stated further that in the
event DR.. Nelson could not fill
the post he would possibly" ask
DR.. Caskey, present head of the
political and social science de-
partment at Mississippi College.
In a brief interview with Mr..
Neanderthal this week, in which
the papers apology was extended,
he said: We've got to maintain
our way of life"
Editors Note: We have receiv-
ed several letters since last week
from persons wanting to know if
we had the. picture of Mr.. Mean
derthal confused with that of
Senator Eastland. We'd like them
to know the the correct picture
was run, but admit the difference
in the appearance of the two men
is slight.)

W. P. Harrington
Enters Race For

w. P. (Smokie) Harrington has
announced as candidate for Hat

May election.
Mr. Harrington served as a COM
missioner for the four and half
year term which ended in 1858.
His announcement follows:
Three and half years ago | Of
fered for reelection as city COM

observation and study, l believe
/ am even better qualified to re-
sumo my public service to the cit
liens of Hattiesburg.
I invite the support of all the
people-the ones who voted for
me before and those who did not.
In my opinion, there are many
things to be done for Hattiesburg
by a progressive municipal ad-
ministration. They include:
Better street markers and more
parking space in the down town
area.
Widening of some of the critical
streets to help relieve traffic con-
gestion.
An improved system of garbage
disposal.
More fire hydrants, more water
wells and more fire department
stations.
Improvements at the airport.

Exactly What Is
The Big Siory?'
BY Harry Golden

The Manchester Guardian. in

paper readers are interested in
the same type of story on both
sides of the Atlantic; and that the
most stimulating newsbill equiv
alent to our tabloid headline) is
the announcement of story con-
cerned with any one of these in
teresting subjects::-murder, sex,
dope, kidnapping, or children. On
the, basis of this expert analysis,
the all-time dream" headline
would probably be as the stream
er above.
James Gordon Bennett grasped
the idea when, as editor of the
New York Herald, he decided to
personally cover a murder story.
A prostitute was found dead in
a sleazy rooming house. In ac-
cordance with the custom of the
1850's, this should have been a
one-line item among seventy 9TH
er reports on an inside page I'M
der the heading-"Police Blotter".
But Mr.. Bennett changed all of
that. He put screaming headline
in his paper, Prostitute Found
Slain. and ordered his artist to
draw a photo of the body showing
a naked leg dangling over the
side of the bed. That headline
and the dangling leg ushered in a
new era in American journalism.
If you were asked to list the
Great American news stories, you
would think Immediately of the
Lindbergh kidnapping; Leopold
and Loeb; tael disappearance of
Charlie Ross; what happened to
Dorothy Arnold; did Nan Patter-
son kill Caesar Young in the ham

watch television good bit and find number of
line comedy programs Jack Benny, Sid Caesar,
George Gobel but the best comedy program on tee-
vision nowadays is Oral Roberts. Perhaps should in
some way qualify that statement Oral Roberts would be
Tvs best comedy program it not taken seriously
by great number of people. Mr. Roberts has private
pipeline to God, and with freewil offering he will
tune God in for the sake of the donor In short Mr. Rob-
ers to have put the concept of God Santa Claus
on paying basis Christ it appears to me, has be-
come an efficient bell-hop for Mr. Roberts AS for me-
I'm Christian Scientist until get pain then want
medical doctor, not Mr.. Roberts.
Noted with great interest recently the explanation by
Mr. Roberts as to his seven point program for world
something other. One point struck me being the
damnest thing I'd heard in quite sometime He proposes
to print half-mion Bibles for distribution in Israel
Israel of course, does not embrace the religion of Mr.
Roberts, SO the halfmillon Bibles may be the devil
quoting scripture for my purpose but the golden
rule is great teaching of Christianity but by goy Mr.
Roberts want to convert the Jews to Chrsan
ty not withstanding the golden rule any other rule
know of Jew trying convert Christians to their
igion.
Oh, well, must stop this. I've got to get my free
will offering in the mail to Oral Roberts, Tulsa, Okla
homa. And know he will my letter, because he
said he would and I'M who has faith in preach
