"Baugs ' His Ctitorners--Taking a tip from the old-fashioned
barber shop with its shelf of personal shaving mugs, restaurant
operator Norman Massing keeps a supply of "personalized
coffee cups” for his regular customers. Each cup bears the
name or nickname of one of the regulars. Massing is seen
serving a personal cup to office worker Rose Marie Nutini.
When Will "Mule
Train' Finally lk
Just about the time that radio sta-
tion disk jockeys became fed up
with a new popular song the public
catches up with it. So it is with
'Mule Train," that rousing western
song that Tin Pan Alley has loosed
upon the world.
Having reached the limit of en-
durance, a San Francisco radio -
caster recently played every record-
ing of "Mule Train" he had or
could borrow. The presentation last-
ed half an hour, with a repetition or
two from the versions made by Bing
Crosby, Frankie Lane, Tennessee
Ernie, and others. Result—listeners
ertrho had not heard it often enough
were delighted.
Doubtless the disk jockey by the
Golden Gate is still receiving re-
quests for the recordings. If he ht
turn goes in for busmen's holidays,
he can hear the song done to a thrill-
ing turn on the rise -and -shine pro-
gram of a Fresno station by,a Mexi-
can singing in Spanish. Not till the
public becomes sated with "Mule
Train" go off the air.
Remember "Pm Forever Blowing
Bubbles" and "Yes, We Have No
Bananas"? They seemed indestruc-
tible. Perhaps there is some com-
pensation for today's more intense
bombardment. The punishment is
shorter, for the point where a ma-
jority are fed up comes quicker.
GARAGE GAB
In many small garages, the ser-
vicemen identify cars by the names
of their owners, When repairs are
needed or special services required,
this practice leads to some interest-
ing notes in the daybook of orders.
For instances:
Mrs. Ellis won't start.
Give Miss Jackson some .alcohol.
Two Touts ought to hold her.
Something wrong with olcl man
Pitt's wiring.
Mrs. Wyndham's fenders bumped.
Not responsible.
Wash Miss Jenkins.
Encore
A piper had played a selection on
his bagpipes at a gathering, not all
Scotsmen. He was rewarded with
good applause. The chairman sug-
gested an encore, A voice in the
audience called, "How about 'Annie
Laurie'?"
The piper looked surprised and
pleased, and said, "Again?"
Something new. is liable t9. be
added to the already lengthy list of
sports alibis. These, of course, in-
clude such gems as the horse that
would have been a cinch if the track
hadn't turned sloppy; the baseball
outfielder would have caught th g fly
ball in his athletic supporter if the
sun 'hadn't dazzled him; the golfer
who would have holed out in one
putt, instead of five, if it hadn't
• been for a worm cast; the football
team that would have won handily
except for the horrible condition of
field; and dozens more you can
probably readily call to mind. •
* * *
But this new one—and we can
hardly wait to see which club use's
it first—relates to hockey. As you
no doubt know, the "greatest city,
on earth" is threatened with a water
shortage, in fact is hardly better off
in that regard than some places the
New Yorkers would scornfully refer
to as "hick towns".
* *
So now, according to dispatches,
the New York Rangers of the Na-
tional Hockey League are hoping to
save some 150,000 gallons of the
city's drinking water by thawing
the..rink after each game, and stor-
ing the fluid for re -use throughout
the season.
* * *
So, as we started to say earlier,
we can hardly wait to see which of
the other teams, after dropping a
tough game in the metropolis, outs
with the alibi "we would of wdn easy .
if that stale ice the Rangers use
hadn't of slowed us down to a walk."

From a sports writer's standpoint
it seems rather a pity that the

INSULT
The club secretary hurried over
when he saw a visiting golfer ad-
dressing the ball a few feet in front
of the tree.
"I'm sorry, sir," he interrupted,
"but in this club we play either froth,
the tee or behind it. Never," he em-
phasized with a shudder, "in front
of it."
The golfer's only move was to re-
address his ball,
"I must insist," urged the secre-
tary.
The golfer straightened up and
looked • hard at his interrupter. "1
happen," he said with dignity, "to he
playing my second ShOt."

occur a year or so earlier. Then• w
could all have pointed out that th
Rangers could save even more

using any at all, because the

"The Kiss of •Death" in Sports
as you are probably aware and a
we have no doubt explained before
comes when one of the huge-cireula
tion magazines publishes a featur
article regardiao some athlete o
team, immediately prior to sue
team or athlete indulging in som
"erooshul" struggle.
*
It is rather remarkable, at tha
how often such an article will seen
to act as a hex, or in more Oxoniai
English, put a whammy on the sub
ject. (You have only to recall Th
• Saturday Evening Post's piec
• about what Jersey Joe Walcott wa
going to do to • J96 Louis just befor
their second fight; or, for that mat
ter, a dozen others we might men
tion.)
In Colliers a week or so ago Da
Parker, the most consistently emus
,ing of all the Continent's sport
cobblers for' our money, did a swel
article entitled "They Whistle While
They Work", in which he dealt with
the amazing antics of the top (pro-
fessional) basketball referees.

And quite a show those babies
put on, and no mistake. In fact to
our mind their grand -standing an-
tics, coupled with their incessant
whistle -tooting, had no little to do
with sickening the Toronto public
with pro basketball in the late and
unlamented attempt to popularize
it there.
* * *
Anyway, hardly had the issue
containing Parker's screed hit the
newsstands when the old "Kiss of
Death" went into action, Maurice
Podoloff, supreme commissioner of
the National Basketball Association,
issued an edict. And this edict, al-
though' it saves the aforesaid ref-
erees from the ever-present danger
of apoplexy and busted arteries, is
going to cramp thein to about the
same extent as—well, as Gene Autry
or Roy Rogers would be handi-
capped if they were forced to act
without the :r horses.
'No longet , ,....server puts
it, "will a Pat le eanedy be free to
wax eloquent, to turn a magnificent
purple as he shrills 'Hacking! One
shot.' No longer will diminutive Phil
Fox mince accusingly up to a be-
sneakered criminal and thrusting a
roguish finger beneath his nose, call
a halt to allow the one sinned
against to take his rightful place at
the free throw line. No longer will
Eddie Boyle bring down the fury of
the populace as, by prolonged panto-
mime, he achieves what a less gifted
individual might do with a simple
blow of the whistle."
The lads can still call fouls to
their hearts' content. But --accord-
ing to the fiat of Commissioner
Polodoff, "motions of the body,
which have been used increasingly
and which in some cases belong
more properly to the stage, are to
be abandoned immediately. The only
speaking to be done by an official
when a foul is committed is calling
out the number of the player in-
volved."
Seine Will try and clailn. that such
a move was long overdue, and coin-
ing anyway. But most will lay the
blame on Dan Parker, and his "Kiss
of Death". And, Oh, Daniell how
could you? How dare you so fetter
the genius of some of the hammiest
actors we have seen since the ten -
twenty -thirty melodrama went to
its long rest? It was cruel, of you,
almost fiendish. Personally—well,
we feel as though we could almost
bear to sit through another pro-
fessional basketball game again -e -
something we thought could never
happen since we disgustedly walked
out ori the last one after the first
ten MintiteS.
