the slightest interest to her part

where her top strength in the

her methods made it much easier

last trump to get back to his

The queen Of hearts would still
be at large and when the enemy

Mr.. Champion decided that

WORDS, WIT
AND WISDOM
BY Rouson
By WILLIAM MORRIS

This column has been known
to view with stern and reproving
eye some Of the wilder excuses
of the advertising gentry. The
excessive and unsubstantiated
claim of excellence, the open
end comparative Laboratory
tests prove hot-shots betterD
and the calculated bad grammar
designed to appeal to the com
mon man"-all have drawn our
fire on occasion.
But one aspect OF life that
never ceases to excite our ad-
Imiration is the shop talk used
by members Of the advertising
fraternity. AS would be expected
of craftsmen who deal in SUI
lperlatives, it is characterized by
fanciful. free-wheeling meta
lphor. What this account needs
is men who can plug the holes
in the dixie without getting their
thumbs wet" is a current sample.
Or "take.it to the lab and see II
it's a mushroom or a toadstool. 4"
Problems besetting an agency
copywriter are not much diff
ferent from those faced by thou
sands Of other modestly Gre
alive people in other industries.
But the language he uses to de-
scribe each predicament bears
little resemblance.
Situation: A program into
which much thought and plan
ming has gone is rejected by
management. Adman's COM
ment: "Bigdome just exploded
our lotus blossom.
Situation: First client reaction
to a new campaign is less than
enthusiastic. Adman's comment:
Lets throw a blanket On this
and keep 1t warm" or well have
to put this in q traction-splint
and hope 1t knits."
Situation: The hour is late anc
a crisis impends. Adman's COM
ment: Let's not open THAT
can Of peas"
AS the agency man says
when you've got a bear by the
tail you have to go where the
bear goes" Why? Because
that's the way the banans
peels!"
