WORDS, WIT
AND WISDOM
By WILLIAM MORRIS

Question: recently heard
the following sentence from q
person I thought was we'll
educated. Don't worry about
him, he amt going nowheres. I"
What do you think Of it?
JIG. L., Oakland, Calf.
Answer Unless your well
educated" friend was pulling
your leg, he'd better get back
to school in a hurry. His
sentence contains four serious
errors.
/. It is q comma sentence"
actually two sentences sep
arated by a comma. This
should be changed by sub
shutting a semicolon for the
comma or by. changing the
comma to a period and starting
a new sentence with "He !. :"
2. Amt" though often
heard. is vulgar slang.
8. "Ain't" and "nowheres"
constitute a double negative -
frowned on by grammafians.
One negative is enough here.
4. "Nowheres" is incorrect.
The proper form is nowhere. I"
Your friend should have said:
Don't worry about him. He
isn't going anywhere"
Question: am always get
ting mixed UP over when to use
who" and whom" in sentences
like THE girl who I gave the
shower for is now married"
Please straighten me out.
M. L., Flint, Mich.
Answer = In this particular
S sentence you should use
whom" since the relative
pronoun is object of the prep
osition "for." Try rearranging
the sentence so that the prep
osition comes Immediately be-
fore the pronoun and the logic
Of whom" becomes clear. THE
girl for whom I gave the shower
is now married"
This use Of whom" is
mandatory in formal speech or
writing. In informal CONVERSE
ton the problem is not likely
to arise. Most of us would
simply say: THE girl I gave
the shower for is now married"

I'm not of a mood to downrate the

Lane is boss of the only other National

In the National League the team race

The champion Dodgers are growing old.
They will miss the retired Robinson who,

win that one big game, or one big series.
