My Favorite Stories
By CARL GOERCH
One of my buddies, many years
ago, was Bricky Connor. He was a
boy of great ingenuity and clever
ideas. He was always thinking up
something new, and in a good
many instances his ideas gol him
self and others into plenty of
trouble.
He and I were playing around
Bricky's yard in Tarrytown one af
ternoon. BilT, a medium-sized dog
of unknown parentage, was playing!
with us. Bricky had had him ever
since he was a little bit of a thing.
On the back fence was .f long rub
ber hose, which Bricky's father
had left there to dry.
I don't know what made him
think of this particular stunt hut
all of a sudden Bricky came out
with it.
"We'll make Biff talk." he de
clared.
"How?" I wanted to know.
''Come on," be said, "and I'll
show you."
He outlined his plan as we went
to the shed where Mr. Connor kept
quite a number of gardening tools.
We got a shovel, dug a trench, and
placed the rubber hose in it. One
end of the hose was behind the
shed; the other near the sidewalk.
Next we grabbed Biff and tied him
to a wooden peg just a foot or two
away from the sidewalk. After that.
Brieky went into the house and
came out with a funnel, which we
inserted in the < nil of the hose be
hind the shed.
And that completed the pre
liminary arrangements. We waited
for our first victim as Biff sat
calmly near the other end of the
hose. Pretty soon along came Mr.
Powers, a middle-aged man Brieky
pressed the funnel against his face
and just as Mr. Powers was oppo
site, he shouted out:
"Hello. Mr. Powers."
Mr. Powers looked around, saw
nobody and started to move on.
"How're you feeling, Mr. Pow-1
ers?"
He came to an abrupt stop. The
end of the hose was right close to
Biff but we had concealed it by
putting some tall grass around it. j
Mr. Powers couldn't sec it. He re-;
garded Biff suspiciously and for
the first time realized that the
voice couldn't possibly have come
from anyone else except the dog. j
You should have seen him. He
j backed away from tail-wagging
' Biff and tben swung around and
walked off as rapidly as he could,
casting occasional glances over bis
j shoulder at the dog.
Equally interesting was Mrs.
Combs' reaction. She had been to
the grocery store and was return
Bette Hannah
Produces
Dollege Play
Miss Bette Hannah, senior music ,
najor at Converse College, ar
anged and directed the annual
enior play which was presented
t the college last Saturday night
The play, "The Best of Broad
tay." was a musical adapted from
utstanding Broadway productions
ncluding "South Pacific." "Gentle
nen Prefer Blondes," "Call Me
dadam," and "Oklahoma."
The cast was from the senior
lass of the College.
Mrs. William Hannah, mother of
diss Hannah, attended the pla\
ind spent the weekend with her ,
laughter. Others attending from
lere were Wingate Hannah. Mrs. !
'red Campbell, and Roger Walker
ng home with her arms full of
lackages. She observed Biff and
aid "Hi. Biff" to him. And then,
ust as she got by. Biff spoke up
ind said: "How about a bone,
drs. Ccmbs?"
Well, sir-, the woman jumped as
hough somebody had hit her in
he rear with a barrel-stave. She
Iropped two of her bundles and,
while stooping over to pick them
ip. gazed at Biff in utter constern
ition. Then she moved away as
upidly as she could, paying no at
ention when Biff said; "Goodbye,
Mrs. Combs."
For the next hour or two we had
more fun than you could shake a
dirk at. The climax came, however,
when Frank Shields hove in sight.
Mr. Shields at that time- was a
man about 30 years old, His one
weakness was that he drank too
much and this particular day he
had spent' a good deal of time in
AI Cureau's saloon.
We waited until he came with
in range. Bricky placed the funnel
up against his face once more and
hollered: "Hello, Frank."
Mr. Shields stopped. He looked
around, saw nobody and started off
again.
"It's mo?Biff?talking to you,"i
said the voice.
Mr. Shields turned slowly around
once more. His bleary eyes focused
on the doe. "Oh." he said, "it's you.
TTow are you. Biff?"
"I'm all right, Mr. Shields. What
time is it?"
With considerable effort he pull
ed out his watch, gazed at it for
half a minute or so and then an
nounced: "It's half-past five."
"Thank you, Frank," apparently
said the dog.
"You're welcome. Biff." said Mr.
Shields, and he staggered on his
way without giving any sign that
anything unusual had just taken
place.
As I recall, we never did give
the stunt away, and for some time
afterwards there were people in
that neighborhood who regarded
Biff with intense suspicion every
time they saw him,
