Chic Forbes, the renowned Shi oym artist, has portrayed here his
aesthetic conception of Shloymey the Shlopomore.
Shloymey theShlophomore
Raises a Whale at Beach
Hey, Buddy-buddy!
The first stop Shloym made last
year at the beach, was the seashore.
That was where his Thunderbird
had dropped him. Immediately
Shloym launched whole-heartedly
into everyone’s favorite beach ac
tivity: picking up those shapely
little—shells. With all six arms
loaded, Shloym grabbed some
needles, threads, and thimbles (he
has very sensitive thumbs) and
began making his year’s supply
of earrings. He was just com
pleting his order from the G-30’s
when what should come up but
three of the most luscious-looking
mermaids he had ever seen! They
all bought some earrings: then
two of them left, but the others
lingered around and made passes
at Mr. Innocence.
At firet Shlom thought she was
just buttering him up to get some
shell earrings wholesale, but she
didn’t look poor by any means,
except for her attire, so he be
gan to get suspicious.
“What’s your name?” he asked
“Susie La Kadoodleshnopser.”
Shloym unobtrusively removed
his little black book, the one re
served for mermaids, and was
just getting started on La Ka
doodleshnopser when there arose
a great clatter at the shore. Susie
was gone, but a crowd of scantily
clad sun-mongers were yelling ex
citedly about something. Shloym
carefully hid his shells under the
nearest sleeping bathing beauty
and scurried to the shore.
Shloym had seen many a whale
in his day; in fact, there were
even some in his immediate family,
but the one floating there was
the most monstrous heap of blob
Shloym had ever seen. As he
ncured the crowd, everyone began
to run. Shloymey, sensing his op
portunity for fame, immediately
withdrew from its sheath his trus
ty harpoon, Joumstein, fondled
it lovingly for a second, and then
heaved it into the mighty beast.
It reached its target: right be
tween the eyes. As the whale
viewed’ the apparatus, his eyes
jammed, his ears followed, and
then GAZOONIE BIRD! The
whale went stark-raving mad,
just as all Shloyyms previous ad
ventures had told him he would.
Shloym had saved the day. After
six' to eight weeks of rest, the
whale would be just as sane as
anyone else, and Shloym could use
him for his science project next
year! He would entitle his ex
hibit: “Whale, Whale,. Whale,” or
“You Too Can Waise a Whale of
a Bunch at the Beach.”
When the photographers, report
ers, and other publicity hounds
had gobbled their bits, Shloym
returned to his earrings, which
were now crushed by the restless
sleeper. Shloym was most distress
ed at this, so to get even with
the crusher, he poured Orange
Crush all over him. The sleeper
turned over, and who should it
be but . . . but it couldn’t . . .
but it was. 'Susie La Kadoodle
shnopser, magically returned!
Shloym couldn’t believe his good
fortune. He took her by her dain
ty dorsal fin, flat-planted one
on her (an earring, of course),
and ran as fast as he could to
get some more shells to make
lier a necklace! He also threw

Mamie Stover Story
To Play At Carolina
Summer days are here again
and with shorts, bare feet and a
mad dash for the old swimmin’
hole, even though its modern
counterpart is just a bathtub full
of ice cubes; you just sweat and
swelter. Even with all 'those long
tall lemonades and $1.98 Polar
Bear fans you still can’t seem
to get cool.
Ah, but an idea dawns! To
keep cool all summer long and
enjoy it ... go to the CAROLINA
THEATRE. Starting Sunday for
the entire week you will be able
to see “The Revolt of Mamie
Stover,” (I know it’s a dangling
participle) a vivid story about a
redheaded girl from Mississippi,
who made an indelible impression
on American soldiers in Honolulu.
It stars, for the boys, Jane Rus
sell as Mamie Stover, and for the
girls, Richard Egan as Jim.
Mamie is a girl with a shock of
red hair and a ferocious desire to
become rich and respectable. She
won a beauty contest, was tossed
out of Hollywood and landed in
Honolulu, where, with the assist
ance of a war and the United
States Army, she made her fortune
but lost the love of the one man
she wanted to win.
Two songs, “If You Want to See
Mamie Tonight,” and “Keep Your
Eyes on the Hands,” which ex
plains in amusing fashion that the
art of the hula dance reposes in
the movement of the hands and
not the undulating hips of the
dancers, are featured in the pic
ture.
away his little black books. He
knew that from now on there was
only one mermaid in the world for
him. Prom now on, he would be
one-mermaid shlophomore.
