Pittsburgh 22, Pa: THIS BUSINESS of picking a "Mother of the Year" is ba loney, says Zadok Dumkopf. He points our that all mothers are wonderful. And that if the voting was on the up-and-up it would result, here in America, in a 50,000,000-way tie. i i i Zadok Dumkopf says that we should substitute a "Mother-in-Law of the Year" instead. Thtre are two sides to that subject. I ; ; Zadok offers his own mother-in-law as a candidate. She is Ihe nearest human of any main-law in his experience, he says, i ; i This wingless angel never visits her relatives. And when it is somebody's birthday or an niversary she always sends a cash gift, in three denomina tions. i i This paragon of kin folk never discusses her own ill nesses, real or imaginary. Nor does she insist on anyone try ing her cold cures. i t i Best of all, this silver-haired saint of the post-wedding cere mony period insists she knows a lot less about raising kids than does the current generation, j j j Perfect? She is non-existent for, you s.'e, Zadok just dreamed this one up, he being a life-long bachelor.
