and Mrs. J. SIR Winston Churchill never went to college. Neither did Charles Wilson, John L. Lewis, J.

C. Penney, Ernest Hemingway, Katharine Cornell, Helen Hayes and Ethel Barrymore. Many other famous men and women never received a college diploma. A few of them might never have achieved so much suecess if they had. Some, however, might have gone farther if they had had a college education.

However, practically none of them would discourage youths from going to college. Bright Youths College has helped pick out some of the brighter youths, yet records of intelligence testing indicate that about 40 per cent of our brightest youths never get to college. Some of them don't go for want of money, others for want of ambition. Parents and other adults need not suffer feelings of inferiority If they have never gone to college or even finished the grades. If they will continue to they will improve their education.

Also, persons with academic degrees have no reason to lord 1t over those who haven't. Instead, any honest person, who has had a formal education, should greatty admire those who, with so little academic education, have achieved so much. -Native Abillty Such achievement bespeaks native ability, self-drive and persistence- the stuff character is made of. If only all college graduates had as much! The necessary information for 1987, King Festure All Wives Enjoy Throwing Pies, Says TV Producer By DOROTHY ROE AP Women's Editor Almost wife has d. hidden urge to throw a pie in her husband's face, have discovered through some specialized re search.

After she has thrown the pie, the wife almost always feels a lot better, and if the husband is an amiable type he usually laughs heartily especially if he wins a whopping cash prize, and if his clothes are properly safeguarded by plastic coveralls. This bit of applied psychology probably is responsible for much of the success of one televison's longest-running shows, Beat the Clock, says its young and beautiful coproducer, Jean Hollander. This is the show in which contestants are picked from the audience just before show time, and are required to perform various undignified and hilarious tricks in certain elapsed time. Some people have won as much as $64,000 on the show, says Jean. Nobody ever gets hurt and hardly anybody balks at the nonsense, she says, seem to get rid of their inhibitions on the show.

They throw china and break glasses and have a wonderful time. We had a rear admiral and his wife on the show one time, and the admiral got a pie in his, face. His wife was overjoyed, saying it was something she always had wanted to do. As for the admiral, he said he also enjoyed it- the whipped cream tasted good. Of course we never use real pies just paper plates full of whipped cream." COKESBURY COKESBURY J.
