Jaywalking or the shortest dis
tance across the street can also
be the shortest way to the grave.
Safety statistics show that 3,000
persons were killed and 63,000 in
jured last year while attempting
to "short cut" across the street.
The usual approach to the jay
walking death trap is coming from
behind a parked car. Eight-hundred-ten
persons dead and 63,000
injured in 1952 was the result be
cause they failed to cross the
street at the corner instead of be
tween intersections.
Jaywalking is only one way
pedestrians not car driver s I
cause traffic accidents. Of the
many persons who "daringly"
crossed against the signal last
year, 740 will not be around to
"chance" it again. Crossing with
the signal is dangerous in itself
as shown by 23,000 injuries.
Although walking on a rural
highway is legal, it is still another
way pedestrians have discovered
of killing or injuring themselves.
The left side of the highway is
the correct place to walk even if
it is "unhandy" for hitch-hikers.
Many hikers walking on the
wrong side of the highway often!
end up taking a ride in the "death
wagon.
Riding or "hitching" vehicles
adds spice and variety to life, but
while the variety remains for oth

Oh brother! You know, occas

me and say they read a tunnr
joke in my column, or that they
got a few giggles out the whole
column in general. But oh brother
if you wont some real laughs
go and see the Kosmet Klub
Spring Show at the Nebraska
Theater. I was fortunate enough
to be in on the dress rehearsal
last night, and I sure wish that
I could use some of those crazy
jokes.
As you rrobably know, Kosmet
Klub is producing Cole Porter'i
Broadway Musical "ANYTHING
GOES, and believe me it is cer
tainly well named. It is Jam-
pacKea with cole rorter'i favorite
tunes, filled-to-the-brim with ac
tion and dancing, and those Jokes:
some of them are about as subtle
as a train wreck.
I didn't claim to be a critic on
this sort of thing, but I know that
the small audience that watched
the show last night at dress re
hearsal was in stitches most of
the time.
If you want a good time and
a good laugh, then I say "don't
miss 'Anything Goes'. Nuf sed. .

Once this cat went to church
and was snowed by the sermon.
Upon making his exit from the
church he grabbed the preacher's
hand and shook it sayin', "Dad,
read you. That sermon was the
MOST. It was gone. You were on
the right channel and played In
my key."
"Most? Dad? Read? Key? asked
the preacher. "I'm afraid I don't
understand."
"Yes. you do, Dad,'' said the cat
"In fact, I liked it so gone I put
twenty samoolas in the collection
plate."
"Oh! Craazy, Craaazy," said the
preacher.
Spit is such a horrid word."
