But if he doesn't sue for libel, that chimp's a chump. I don't suppose he could collect. But feiink of the fun he'dhave reading the newspapers as I have done, collecting evidence to show that nobody, not chimpanzees, have as much fun as people.

He missed, but in the understandable excitement the passenger fell off and broke an ankle. In La Ciotat France, 19 girls lined up for a bicycle race. Bang: went the gun. Away went 18 of the girls. The 19th didn't because she couldn't; she'd been slightly wounded.

The Bostonians are delighted at the chance to see the gay scenes of dancing in the streets, celebrations in the public squares.

Beano has been illegal in Massachusetts for more than five years.

It gave him a "reasonable time" to clean up his affairs and get out. It was the first time that either Russia or the United States had demanded the recall of a diplomatic official since the two nations resumed diplomatic relations in 1933. The White House made it clear that "the whole thing was done under President Truman's orders." It was considered highly unlikely that Russia is even considering keeping Lomakin on the job here despite United States protests. If it did, the United States could force him to leave by revoking his 'visa and deporting him. Information available here shows that Lomakin is more than just an ordinary Soviet consular official.
