(UPI)
250,000 rats.
The Piper’s five-man crew
from the Orkin Exterminating
Co. did their thing so well
Thursday state health official
Harvey J. Dominick said he’d
seen enough and was going
back to Springfield.
Just in case the men from
Orkin said they’d keep pumping
gas into those burrows for
another day.
Because the rat population
supposedly outnumbers the
25,000 people of this pleasant
town 50 miles northwest of
Chicago 10 to 1, the city’s
Board of Trustees voted to put
the exterminators to work.
They acted after irate par

Old Groaner Crosby
is coming along fine
By VERNON SCOTT
HILLSBOROUGH, Calif.
(UPI) — “The Old Groaner is
still groaning,” Bing Crosby
said just before boarding his
own plane for an Easter
holiday at his house in Las
Cruces, Mex.
The 69-year-old crooner un
derwent surgery last January
for removal of part of his left
lung and has been recuperating
slowly ever since.
“I read some newspaper
tersville—they had the nearby
alternatives of East Dundee,
West Dundee and Sleepy Hollow
—but they did.
Ken Hughes, assistant village
manager, said the excavation
of a nearby gravel pit a few
months ago wiped out the old
burrows of the rats and fled
fled to Carpentersville.
Village Manager George
Shaw said only a few rats
poked their noses above ground
during Thursday’s extermina
tion exercises. They died
quietly, he said.
Said Dominick of the Illinois
Department of Health, before
his early departure, “The
problem is not as bad as it is
made out to be. From the news
stories I heard, I expected to be
here another day. I’ve seen
enough.”
stories about how sick I was
and it gave me quite a turn,”
said Bing in his rich baritone.
His voice was strong and his
attitude jaunty.
“I’m coming along, but it
takes time. I’ve had operations
before but this was a tough one.
They took out two-tifths of my
left lung. Now I’ve got a 35-inch
scar on my back. It’s a beauty.
“There was a report that my
trouble was due to an African
fungus. Not so. It was a fungus,
all right with an abcess the size
of a tangerine. But I could have
picked it up anywhere. It’s a
type of fungus that’s common
in central California.”
Crosby is still trying to put on
a little weight. He hopes to
improve his color in the balmy
sun at the tip of Baja
California.
“Kathryn (his wife) is
working in the theater here,”
he said. “She won’t be making
the trip. But as usual, I’ll be
taking the kids—Harry, Na
thanial and Mary Frances with
me.
“We’ll be fishing for marlin,
sailfish and some of the other
big ones.
“I’ve been getting stronger
every day. Sometimes in the
afternoon I get out to the golf
course for a little pitch and putt
practice. It will be a while
before I can take a full golf
swing.
“But I plan to play some
tennis because my right side is
all right. The left, where they
did the operating, is still a bit
weak.”
Crosby won’t return to work
until early summer when he
will go to Hollywood to tape a
television comedy special with
Bob Hope, Pearl Bailey and
Mitzi Gaynor. Later he and his
family will film their annual
Christmas show.
Destroy money
TRIESTE, Italy (UPI) —
Police said they found Mario
Buzan 36, exitedly tearing
banknotes to pieces on an
unused railroad track before
dawn Thursday.
They took Buzan to a hospital
and pieced together the bank
notes. They were perfectly good
and added up to $1,686, police
said.
