THE PERILS OF A POPCORN MACHINE stole the thunder from the movie, "Perils of Pauline," as far as William Wells was concerned. the Queens, N. boy left the theater he got his finger stuck in the machine. It took seven policemen to free him. A BURGLARY PREVENTION EXPERT was sentenced at Bournemouth, England, to 17 months in prison.

AN "EVICTION" FIGHT HAS JUST BEGUN, Warren West-phal of Teaneck, N. said. Dozens of families of skunks have moved in under their house. The state fLsh and game commission says he can't poison 'em; an expert at the Bronx zoo says there is no odor potent enough to smell 'em out.
