From now on every studio plans to hire gag policemen to trap the culprits." News Item. RADIO listeners are warned to be on the alert for a counterfeit 50-cent Joke which sounds almost like the original, except for the long whiskers on it.

Barber shops and pool rooms especially are asked to report any one trying to pass it off as genuine. AN ARMORED truck, carry-lng an undetermined supply of gags for the new Marx Brother picture, was held up on Sunset Boulevard yesterday afternoon. The bandits jumped into a black sedan and drove off in the direction of the NBC studios with 18 negotiable belly-laughs. PANTS burglars held Burns and Allen at pistol-point this afternoon while they were rehearsing the day's receipts, and escaped with a suitcase full of nifties. The monetary loss Is negligible, but the noted comedians treasured the gags for sentimental reasons.

COUR GAGS, believed to be part of the "Sing, Baby, Sing" loot, turned up on WABC last night. The thieves escaped before G-men arrived. Police are examining the gags for fingerprints, laundry mark? and mud under the fingernails. rpHE preview of the new Jack Benny picture will be held under heavy guard in the Government vaults at Fort Knox, Kentucky, to prevent any possibility of dialogue theft. CUSTOMS officials have found $10,000 worth of movie gags packed under the false bottom of a pickle barrel.

The pickles were consigned to a well-known radio station. The contraband laughs have been dumped at sea. piGHT moving picture comedians took out theft insurance last night after listening to Milton Berle. AL BOASBERG, who draws $1,000 a week for thinking up silly things, has Just turned over the following ransom note to local police: "Put $10,000 worth of new, unmarked gags in a suitcase. Drive to Hollywood and Vine at 4 a.

m. Thursday and wait for instructions. If yi notify police your lyife won't be worth a nickel. Desperate." A WARNER BROTHERS gagman was held up and robbed of $1.19 last night as he was laughing at something in his office. The loot Included a cheap gold-plated strip tease gag, a second-hand Wally Simpson joke, a worn-out Supreme Court laugh, and nine miscellaneous cracks, of doubtful value, about the sit-down strike.

Fortunately, the robbers left an excellent gag in the writer's mouth. 44YHEN and "that wasn't Ben Bernle his no sponsor," is all that remains of the gag which was stolen from Walter Wlnchell on the "Wake Up and Live" set by pickpockets yesterday afternoon during rehearsal.

They pull up in front of the iwn hall or cathedral and the guide says, "You are now looking at Wells Cathedral, built in such-and-such a year" with additional facts, for five minutes or so. If it's a very large or famous cathedral, the tourists may get out for a hasty inspection; otherwise, they take a note or a picture and on they go.

For me, It is much more interest BARCLAY Consider Partner, JOLLOWING a response to your opening bid, it doesn't pay to make a jump force to without considering how weak a hand could justify the single call made by your partner.

Many fair players are prone to make such jumps with hands which could not produce gkme unless the partner's holding was. somewhat above an absolute minimum. "Could there be a game in this hand if my partner was so weak that he would not bid again over a minimum rebid by me?" would be a good question for such players to ask themselves before making the jump. 4984 0 QJ105 K73 A1073 K84 Q96 NORTH QJ 10 4 2 A962 10842 A AK6S2 AK6 73 AJ5 Dealer: North.

I want to know what the people talk about and what they have for luncheon; what they buy and where they buy it; whom and how they entertain. Renting a Flat I like renting a flat best of all.

and often you can do this by the week, which makes it possible on even a very brief trip. I have been doing that in London, and now I know about the little shops around the corner in Shepherd's Market the butcher and baker and draper and chemist and the little flower stall. I can have friends in for tea or for talk around the fireside in the evening. I find that I go to the little restaurants that my neighbors patronize and that are so much more typical of the country than the bigger, smarter ones though I go to those, too and I go to movies and music halls and small exhibitions, instead of only theaters and public buildings and the large art galleries. London Memories When I go home, I am sure that will remember London, with its lovely squares and its atmosphere of age and dignity, as a city unlike any other in the world.

But I would never have known it, really, if I'd stayed at a hotel and dashed to a dozen other towns in my one short month. And I wouldn't have known, the other towns either.
