Comments from the SIDELINES By ELBERT FORESTER Well, since the Princess Eliza- beth-Mountbatten wedding k over, people throughout the world can kind of relax and get their minds on something else. It took about two hours to make the Royal Couple man and wife, but from all radio and newspaper reports, those charged with offi¬ ciating really and truly did a wonderful job. I was beginning to feel kind of “bad” because I hadn’t sent the couple a wedding present, but since they overlook¬ ed inviting me, I guess it’s just as well that I didn’t. However. I’m just wondering if they will send me a “chunk” of their wed¬ ding cake. Frankly, I don’t know any reason why I should have a slice, but at the same time. I don’t see any reason why I shouldn’t. Come to think about it, that was some cake, believe me . . . 600 pounds 1 and was around 16 feet high, boy! Just think a- bout a cake three times as heavy as John L. Lewis and nearly three time as high as “Shorty” Adams (our County Agent). Say what you please but I say she was a “hoss” . . . Weighed as much as Wayne Williams, Ter¬ rell Wheeler and the writer, at least, (all put together). Myra (my wife) tells me that quite a few eggs are needed to fix up the “mix” for an ordinary cake . . . Just wonder how many were used in the Royal wedding cake. 1 imagine it would take something- like Col. Douglas Morrison’s con¬ crete mixer to beat ’em up and no doubt the flavoring required was more than Fred Morgan would sell in a week (and that would be plenty). At any rate, I’m going to stand by for' a few days and if I get a “nible” of the big cake, well and good, and if not, I won’t ^eel too much le’ down. One thing I noticed in partic¬ ular, was that “standing room” for the Royal occasion sold for as much as $200. I suggest that the money collected in this man¬ ner be applied to our “aid to foreign countries.” * * * I note where a naturalist says that a skunk will let you alone, If you will let him alone. By doggies, its a deal. * * * Guess there will be several from Dade to attend the Tech- Georgia football game. However there are countless hundreds who will not attend because there are no tickets available. I happened to get hold of a couple some months ago and must say that I was lucky. There is a mad scramble now and has been for some time. Seems to me there ought to be a law (with teeth in it) prohibiting anyone buying more than a reasonable number of tickets to a major football game. If reports are anything true, thousands of tickets bought by a few individuals, (even before they are printed) a regular price and then re¬ just before game time at an outragious price . . . from $50. a pair on up. Such an action on the part of a few, deprives many from attending these games. This is not right on the part of those who purchase them ... it is not right on the part of those who sell them.

The sensational couples of week are Edna Lea and Douglas Miller, Cynthia Moore and Jimmy Bird. The girls have been going around in a daze ever since the boys took them home from bask¬ et ball practice. Too bad, girls, but it seems that Rose Dyer landed Joe Owens first at any rate they were‘seen leaving the show together. Billie Chapman has a new boy friend named Luther. Our per¬ sonal opinion is that Charlotte Sullivan is after him. She keeps up with his phone number; for Billie, she says. The Junior girls are disap¬ pointed in Jack Castleberry. He was giving all of his attention to Betty Riddle in the gym last Monday. Rose Dyer seems to have car¬ ried away all the honors this She was seen in Rising with Ranny Bice.
