Local Humour and Notes From The Gazette
This clipping mixes diary style comedy and brief items. It mentions a dial telephone gag with Professor Kitchin, a painter evaluating his day, mushroom foraging misadventures of Howard Walsh, author Helen Wines on detective writing, a surge in Spanish enrollment at Cornell, a wedding note with the groom missing, Otto Klassen’s run of escalating mishaps, and a Willkie Thornburg campaign quip about Indiana and Iowa hogs. The tone is light local miscellany.
