Jan. 2 Wilfred J. Punk, the dictionary publisher and poet, says 10 modern Americans largely are responsible for the Jargon of Americana.

It's that lingo, now popularized and accepted, that made brethren of the "yokels" and "city slickers," "panicked" Main street and "wowed" the "Main stem" of Manhattan Here's the Honor Roll The principal contributors, In Funk's opinion, are Sime Silverman, H. L. Mencken, T. A. Dorgan, Walter Winchell, Bugs Baer, Ring Lardner, Damon Runyon, Gelett Burgess, George Ade and Gene Buck.

Silverman he died recently transposed nouns and verbs with reckless abandon. As editor of Variety, a theatrical magazine, he took the exclamation "wow" and made a Silverman verb of it. "Panicked" also is his contribution. But perhaps his most famous use of the English language appeared in headlines on "Black Thursday" when the stock market took the depression's "rap." "Wall Street Lays An Egg!" Variety screamed. And the town chuckled.

Some say he coined "yokels." Whenoe Comet "Balogna" Tad Dorgan he made a little fuzzy dog a national institution is dead, too, but his work lives. Always in the right lower corner of his famous cartoons he drew a pup that barked wise cracks. Remember "balogna?" Winchell he's been "ankling" along Broadway for a good while now has treated the King's English to a Winchellistic evolution which produced "blessed event" and 'F and many others. A man with big ears once drew a jibe like this: "He looks like a' cab with its doors open," and Bugs Baer has created another simile. His one about the fellow whose ears looked like "handles on a loving cup" also scored.

Similes roll from his "mill" (Americana for typewriter) like promises from a politician. Lardner also has gone away, but before he left he made you know ai: 'TUTANKHAMEN CURSE' IS FATAL TO DOCTOR Defied Warning1, Watched Opening King Tilt's Tomb LONDON, Jan. 2 (US) The dread curse of Tutankhamen came out into the open again today when Dr. Arthur E.

George Ade Runyon Is famous for his words about the "dips" and "mobsters" of "the downunder world. To him gun is the "heat" and an academic course In rock breaking Is the "stir." "The Rubaiyat of Omar Cayenne" said Burgess once.

So "the goops" came along from his pen. "Aw, don't be a goop," remember? He wrote the goop dictionary and the goop encyclopaedia. Buck Song Writer Ade is an authority in slang. He wrote "Fables in Slang" and his original expressions are many. "Back home and broke" is almost a national motto now and Ade wrote it.

Buck, no, he didn't bring 'em back alive, it's another Buck is responsible for many of the songs that made the Follies famous. "It's tulip time two lips I know" Is one of them. Many words born in other generations are Just now becoming known generally. Some folks say Shakespeare coined "racketeer" and "softy" was a perfectly good word in the early 80's.

It is understood this mysterious underworld character, whose Identity has been closely guarded, is still in custody but whether any new clues were obtained has not been disclosed.

Essick Barr 533 Penn Street, Reading OFFICIAL RETURNS SHIP FIRM'S GIFT Assistant Commerce Secretary Orders Bureau Chiefs to Do Likewise WASHINGTON, Jan. 2 () A $50 box of cigars given to the assistant secretary of commerce, Ewing Y. Mitchell, by the Black Diamond Steamship corporation of New York caused his order to bureau chiefs under his direction to refuse all gratuities and to return any now possessed. Mitchell made public correspondence with the steamship company and with H.

B. Arledge, of the Southern Steamship who appeared in the recent senate ocean mail investigation, in which he Informed the company and Arledge that their gifts were being returned. Shipping Bureau Gets Cigars Answering questions of reporters, Mitchell said that apparently "a wagon load of 50 cent cigars" was being distributed to the United States shipping board bureau. "I do not know the Black Diamond corporation and they do not know me. I certainly do not know why they should send me cigars," he added.

"The letter to the steamship corporation said: "I received from yon today box of cigars. I do not think it good practice for a government official to accept gifts, even of small value, from those with whom he has business relations or with whom he may have business relations. Therefore I have returned the box of cigars to you." In his order to bureau chiefs, Mitchell said in part that "those who are familiar with public affairs know that the Intent of the giving of gratuities is to Influence favorable action by those who receive them and that such object is, to a greater or less degree, obtained in a large percentage of the cases." Gift for Secretary Later Arledge, In response to questions, said that his gift to Miss Berta Nolan, Mitchell's secretary, was "simply little inexpensive compact, probably costing about $1.50. It seems to me that Mr. Mitchell Is going a long ways out of his way to cause trouble.

"Mim Nolan has been courteous to me and I wish only to show that I appreciate her courtesy. She certainly is not in a position of authority sufficient to intimate that she might exert "Everyone knows that it is a customary thing to give a gift to government officials and others for small favors. It is extremely unlikely that a present of so small a character can mean anything except in a friendly and social way. Certainly the White House does not feel called upon to return the multitude of gifts it receives at Christmas time."
