WORDS, WIT
AND WISDOM
BY WILLIAM MORRIS

There has been quite a lively
brouhaha raging in the COR
reSpondence columns of one of
the New York newspapers con-
corning an alleged "grammati-
cal error" in the New York
State Income Tax forms for out
of-state taxpayers. The form in
structs the taxpayer to insert
his home address if it is diff
ferent than" it was in previous
years.
An eager young business ex-
ecutive with flair for personal
publicity undertook to write
New York's Governor Hartman
protesting the "error" and ask
ing that it be changed to the
correct" phrase different from"
in the future. Governor Harri-
man. apparently without con-
Sulting any of the standard
guides to usage. conceded the
mistake" whereupon my es-
teemed colleague Wilfred Funk
One of the dictionary-editing
FunkS-wrote a lively letter to
the editor pointing out that the
alleged mistake was no mistake
at all.
But he didn't stop there. In
stead he went on to point out
that the root Of many supersti-
tons about the rights" and
wrongs" of grammar (split in
f1nitives. double negatives, and
so on can be found in the
writings of a British cleric,
Bishop Robert Lowth, who was
a leader in the once-successful
movement to impose rules of
Latin grammar on English. To-
days language students have
long since discarded these rules
rather, they have faced up to
the fact that rules created for an
inflected'language with rigid pat
terms of sentence structure like
Latin had no application to our
English tongue.
But then DR.. Funk went on to
say. There is a language pat
tern that is continually changing
but so-called grammar has
little or nothing to do with the
reading, the writing or the
speaking of English" And that
was when the storm broke. For
anyone-even so distinguished
a linguist as DR.. Funk-to ex-
press disdain for grammar" was
enough to bring down the wrath
and ridicule of the tradi-
tionalistS. Interestingly enough.
though, none could prove him
wrong"
Well. then. getting back to the
case in point. should the tax
form be changed? Let's look TO
Prof. Porter Perrin of the Uni
versity of Washington, whose
Writer'S Guide and Index to
English is the best handbook of
contemporary American usage.
THE most common American
idiom with 'differtnt' is from. "
Perrin writes. In writing. diff
ferent from should ordinarily be
used. However. different than
is becoming more common when
the object is a clause
that's the situation on the tax
blank.
To sum up. then, different
from" is slightly preferable in
this case because this is a for
NAL piece OF printed matter
However. different than" is
certainly not wrong" and does
represent perfectly acceptable
colloquial idiom.

MODERN MARRIAGE
No Sympathy
For Girls
Who Are Tall
By DR.. PAUL POPENOE

Tall girls have plenty Of
advantages. They are likely
to live longer. marry more
advantageously. and bear
children more successfully
than short girls.
Hence the complaints they
make about their social han
dicap can't be taken tho seri-
ously!
In a recent column I called
attention 70 some Of their
advantages. but the column
merely brought letters from
tail girls who complained
that ! didn't know what
was talking about II that !
couldn't realize what q ham
dicap II Is to q girl 70 be
taller than every dancing
partner. and 50 on.
Perhaps it's worth while.
then. to look at their advan-
taees q little more closely.
As everyone knows. people
are taller today, all over the
civilized world. than they
were q few generations ago.
Most Of the Increased
height Is In the legs. The
long-legsed girl is widely ad-
mired. Long legs are indica-.
tons Of good health.
Writing in the June, 1857,
issue Of the British journal
Biology and Human AZ
airs" DR.. !. Leitch and DR..
A. M. Thomson point out
that women who have been
brought up in skilled work
ing class homes and who
marry professional men are,
on the average. taller than
those who marry skilled
workmen. and also taller
than those who descend on
marriage. from the profess
sional to the skilled work.
ing class"
Taller women have fewer
stillbirths. and they have
fewer contracted pelves,
liable TO give rise TO difiiculty
In childbirth.
A study by DR.. r. IIlsley
indicated that. other condi-
tions being equal, tall girls
are more intelligent than
short girls.
OF course these are only
statistical averages. and do
not necessarily apply TO any
individual.
Moreover. there are racial
differences: Scandinavians,
for instance, are taller than
southern Italians, and so on.
But In any given group. tall
ness is likely to be some in
dication Of good growth. full
development. and general
fitness for life.
Even II they feel con-
spicuous on the dance floor,
then, the very tall girls do
not seem to have any serious
difnculty In marrying 10 ad-
vantage and becoming sue
cessful mothers.
They benef1t BY getting To-
gether with others like them
selves. and the Tip-Top
Clubs and others with
similar names deserve en-
couragement.

LITTLE TUNA!

Mays Head.-Not since last
Spring when they were caught in
great numbers by anglers aboard
Hatteras-based cruisers, have little
tuna been so plentiful in waters
off the Dare Coast. During the
past week dozens have been taken
by Gulf Stream fishermen trolling
off Oregon Inlet. The sizes have
ranged from five to Is pounds
each.
These little tuna are excellent
food fishes. In size and shape
they are identical with the giant
tuna which attract big game ang-
lers to Wedgeport and the BAHIA
mas. None of the giants have ever
been taken off North Carolina al
though there were reports last
Spring of some of the big tuna
that appeared to have weighed
several hundred pounds, being
raised to bait near Diamond Light
ship. The largest tuna ever landed
off North Carolina have been yell
low-fins or Allisons that scaled at
approximately $50 pounds each.
These few specimens We're taken
off Hatteras and Drum Inlets.
