Katanga
Possible
ELISABETHVILLE, Katanga, the Congo (P) Presi
dent Moise Tshombe declared yesterday that the Communist
bloc threatens to create a Korea-type civil war in the Congo.
He expressed belief the West would avoid such a trap.
The chief of independence-minded Katanga Province also
charged that a prime aim of the
Communists in exploiting the
death of ex-premier Patrice Lu
mumba is to get_ r:d of U.N. sec
retary-General Dag Hammar
akjold.
While he often has quarreled
with the U.N. official and has
defied U.N. efforts to investi
gate Lumumba's death, Tshom
be said "Hammarskjold has the
least responsibility in this af
fair."
Katanga insists Lumumba was
killed by villagers after escaping
from a prison farm and Tshombe
chided the West for falling "into
the Communist bloc's trap by ac
cepting the theory of a political
assassination and by glorifying an
individual who was no more than
a common criminal.
Tshombe was replying to writ
ten questions submitted by four
correspondents. One dealt with
recognition by the Communists
and some other nations of Antoine
Gizenga's rebel regime in Stan
leyville, capital of Oriental Prov
ince north of Katanga.
"The decision of certain Com
munist bloc countries to recog
nize the Stanleyville government
as the only legitimate government
of the Congo promises to create a
Korean situation," Tshombe said.

"A GUIDE FOR THE DATELESS"
With the cost of dating rising: higher and higher it is no wonder
that so many of us men arc turning to discus throwing. Natur
ally, we would prefer nuzzling warm coeds to flinging cold
disci, but who's got that kind of money? Prices being what they
are, the average man today has a simple choice: dating or eating.
Unless the average man happens to be Pinter Sigafoos.
Finster came to college with the normal ambition of. any
average man: he wanted to find the prettiest coed on campus
and make her his. He looked long and carefully, and at last he
found her—a tall job named Kretchma Inskip, with hair like
beaten gold.
He asked her for a date. She accepted. He appeared at her
Forority house that night, smiling, eager, and carrying a bouquet
of modestly priced flowers.
"Now then," said Kretehina, tossing the sleazy flora to a
pledge, "where are we going tonight?"
Master was a man short on cash, but long on ideas. He had
prepared an attractive plan for this evening. "How would you
like to go out to the Ag campus and see the milking machine'
he asked.
"Id," she replied.
"Well, what would you like to do?" he Raked.
"Come," said she, "to a funny little place I know just outside
of town."
And away they went.

The place was :Millionaires Rood, a simple country inn made
of solid ivory. It was filled with beautiful ladies in backless
gowns, handsome men in dickeys. Original Rembrandts adorned
the walls. Marlboro trays adorned the cigarette girls. Chained
to each table was a gypsy violinist.
Mister and Krctchma were seated. "I," saki Kretchma to
the waiter, "will start with shrimps remoulade. Then I will have
lobster and capon in maderia sauce with asparagus spears. For
dessert I will have melon stuffed with money."
"And you, Sir?" said the waiter to Finster.
"Just bring me a pack of Marlboros," replied Finster, "for
if ever a man needed to settle back and enjoy the mild benefi
cence of choice tobacco and easy-drawing filtration, it is the
shattered hulk you see before you BOW."
So, smoking the best of all possible cigarettes, Finster watched
Kreteinna ingest her meal and calculated that every time her
fetching young Adam's apple rose and fell, he was out another
970. Then he took her home.
It was while saying goodnight that Finster got his brilliant
idea. "Listen!" he cried excitedly. "I just had a wonderful
notion. Next time we go out, let's go Dutch treat!"
By way of reply, Kretchma slashed him across the face with
her housemother and stormed into the house.
"Well, the heck with her," mid Finster to himself. "She is
juSt a gold digger and I am well rid of her. lam sure there are
many girls just as beautiful as Kretchma who will understand
the justice of my position. For after all, girls get as much
money from home as men, so what could be more fair than
sharing expenses on a date?"
With good heart and high hopes, Finster began a search for
a girl who would appreciate the equity of Dutch treat, and you
will be pleased to hear that he soon found one—Mary Alice
liematoma, a lovely three-legged girl with sideburns.
We're no experts OM Dutch treat, but here's an Arnerkan trcat
we recommend with enthusiasm—Marlboro's popular new
partner for non-filt sr snsokers—the Ph il(p Morrie Commander.
