Winnipeg Free Press (Newspaper) - March 13, 1968, Winnipeg, Manitoba Coffee break Winnipeg free press it was one of those mornings when it was great just to be alive. And near the Corner of King Sway ave., and Elm St. In River doll in a red car pitches something out the door and speeds off. It lands in a Snowbank. It is a cat. And it is on the verge of having Kittens. A kind lady witnesses the scene and comes out tenderly picks up the expectant Mother and takes her to the nearest veterinarian. It was a great morning to be alive if you were a doll afford a red car. But not if you were a pregnant cat. These things have a Way of evening up lady. You won t believe this Story but i la Tell it anyway. Remember i told you i was Curling in the Charles Wood car Spiel Well we lost every game and that s not news. And the girl on our rink was t a female Impersonator. She was a cute Young Chick named Ona Reeves. And she blushes easy. Especially when she would get into the Hack and i would shout Here s another big end coming but As i said earlier in the column things have a Way of evening up. We Are playing our third game against Dick Bloom of Charleswood. It is the third end. The score is tied 2-2. I step into the Hack and unwind like a Bull elephant on roller skates. I am trying to find the ice so i can let of the Rock when All of a sudden i hear this great i am afraid to look but i can hear this knocking on the Glass behind me and it is my wife and she is pointing furiously. I wave Back and walk to the other end of the ice. Then i look. There Are about 200 people in the rink. And All but several Are pointing at me and laughing. Splitting in fact like my trousers. Did you Ever try to walk past 200 people with the lower half of your body facing the other Way at any rate i made it and just As i am ducking into the ice room to have my pants sewn i hear a voice behind me shout i can t see what everyone s getting so excited about. Here we go again on go go girls and remember i did t bring the subject up. Dear John your article on March 7 re fallout problem at the local beverage rooms was Well written and very witty. But your arguments if that is the word Are false old and irresponsible. I am writing to you because working stiffs Are my concern too. I am sincerely interested in seeing they do get some pleasure out of life. Would i be unkind in saying that you Are not my reason for that is because i think you Are us intelligent As i am if not , and it is obvious to a thinking Man that anyone who can sit in a 1 average room and Yuk at immoral women walking or dancing with Bare by Carrier soc per week a Janfu 13 1 Oak authorized As 2nd class mail by the .

But most honest decent men know there is a time and place for everything signed t. L. Wawanesa Man. Or. T. L. Question my will but Donot for a moment suggest that this old Tabby 34 years old yesterday in fact is not getting any fun out of life. Especially do not suggest it to my wife or any of my friends who Are looking ahead to the Day when i la entertain my first serious thought. I la admit sometimes my face does t show it but i am just about the Luckiest Guy in the world. Now regarding your reference to women dancing with Hare breasts. If you dig out that column again you la see that i came out rather pointedly for strict policing to prevent such accidents from spoiling an otherwise Good show. You Call these go go girls immoral women. And in doing Are playing god. I d prefer to Reserve your judgment on them. I assume you have seen several of the otherwise you could not have formed such Strong opinions. I know a lot of decent people who can look at go go dancing As a form of entertainment without get Ting All charged up one Way or another. If you Don t like them that s your business. But Don t try and play god with people who can look at a girl without drawing the same conclusions you do.
