The answers to these questions run about like this: First of all, unreported income consists primarily of divi- dend and interest payments.

The new machines will keep track of these pay- According to one survey, more than half of the taxpayers involved had failed to report bank interest on their tax returns.

Dr. Paul Dudley White, the fam- ous heart specialist, will be a guest, and Harry Reasoner is the commen- tator. DAVE GARROWAY was back for a one-time visit on the “Today” show to celebrate the show’s 10th an- niversary. In the six months since he left the show, Dave has sold his house—- the narrow, six-story brownstone where his wife, Pamela, so tragic- ally met her death from an overdose of sleeping pills last April. He's looking for a Riverside Drive pent- house where he can get air, and sun. For weekends he’s thinking of buying a mountain 2,200 feet high in Harriman, N. Y., for the purp- ose of building an observatory. Dave is an amateur astronomer. Garroway is also fighting a legal suit. The owners of J. Fred Muggs, the chimp he had on the show, are suing him for half a million dollars. How has Dave recovered from the shock of his wife's death? “About half-way,” is the way he desccribes it. “You get over something like that when you do. You can’t hurry it. “I haven't gone out with anyone simply because I don’t feel like it. “I took Betty Furness to dinner one night to discuss business and the next day all the columnists had us engaged,” he said. ARTHUR GODFREY is joining the nightclub parade, as headline of the Stardust Hotel bill in Lag Veg- as, Feb. 19 to March 4. One thing is certain, he isn’t doing it because he needs money. THE DANNY THOMAS SHOW has been renewed by its sponsor for next season—which quickly ends all the speculation that Danny would get out of regular television after this year. SID MELTON and Pat Carroll, who play the night-club owner and his wife on the Danny Thomas show, are developing into quite a team. Danny, whose production comp- any has launched Dick Van Dyke and Joey Bishop, is said to be inter- ested in Jan Murray for a show of his own next season. CAROL BURNETT describes the Carnegie Hall concert she’s doing with Julia Andrews on March 5 as the “poor man’s Mary Martin-Ethel Merman Show”. CBS is taping it for an hour-long TV special for a later telecast. The whole idea was born when Julie appeared as a guest on the Garry Moore show sometime ago. Bob Banner. who produces the “Garry Moore Show” and ‘Candid Camera,” was quick to realize what a perfect combination they'd make. Julie and Carol will carry most of the hour, with a male chorus of singers and dancers for support. Carol is giving up her CBS radio show at the end of this month. “Pm a visual comic,” she ex- plained, “ and I just don’t like radio. It's not my medium. And I'm frustrated working in it. If I spend 10 minutes doing something I'm unhappy about, it seems longer than 70 hours doing the work I like.” Carol has been offered several series of her own. But she’s turned them all down. “I have all the best of TV on the THE DALLAS POST, THURSDAY, JANUARY 18, 1962 wm = g E g E “ Never let a personal journal lie around, You never know who may read it a hundred years hence, or even later. Recently the Editor handed me a small book which turned out to be a description of a journey from Liverpool, or nearby, to London, and other points in England in May 1836. The writer, Mary or May Vorty, was evidently an unmarried girl reared under the general man- ner described by Jane Austen. She refers to herself as an old woman of eighty-one (backwards) which may mean eighteen. The only name mentioned which is familiar now locally is Boyd. She refers to Uncle Boyd and numerous cousins and other relatives, almost all of them named Boyd. The family members started out in an omnibus (which we thought was a modern word), then rode in a phaeton, a coach, «a gig, a cockle shell boat, on a donkey, and walked and walked and walked. Occa- sionally the walking is varied a little by such words as rambled, but the meaning is clear. Appar- ently the people visited had plenty of this world’s goods, at least their houses and pursuits sound like it. The country houses were all large with ancestral picture galleries, large gardens, parks, shooting pre- serves, musical entertainment, etc. They were on intimate terms with the clergy, some of whom were relatives. At Somerset house they saw paintings of The Battle of Trafalgar, The Battle of Corunna, The Wreck- ers, The [Field of Waterloo, and several others with the comment “What a warlike taste is it not?’. They took a lot of interest in an arcade or museum in which was exhibited a microscope, then new, which would make a common flea look as big as an elephant, and show a drop of water filled with moving living things. There was a lecture and experiments on oxygen and hydrogen, and a player piano- forte. A ride in a cockle shell boat on the Dover Strait proved disap- pointing. The water was calm and very dirty. The scenery was mostly black boats and dirty warehouses. They visited an orphan asylum and an. infant school. A Sunday school maintained by the generosity of some elderly ladies was particularly interesting. Every Whitmonday they gave the children a dinner of hot pudding, beef, with mustard and pepper and horseradish, which was new to them. They were permitted to visit the outer part only of a mine working. EEE EE TERE EE TEER FN ERT, Rambling Around By The Oldtimer—D. A.

In a group of young folks they played games including, “Catching wild horses around ‘the Mulberry Tree, Drop the glove, and Thread the = needle”. Evening diversions were playing billiards, warming by a bright fire, singing, and playing cards. For the latter, the pastor turned up one evening with his long legs encased in zebra silk stockings. He played cards with them and appeared to enjoy it. But the greater part of their in- terest was in the churches. They visited one over a thousand years old and climbed a dark and dusty tower, The view was flat and un- interesting and they had to put in a lot of time brushing off the cobwebbs and finally had to go home. It rained the last five miles they had to walk and they were “sopped”. They attended numerous services where there was good music by orchestra and organ. On one Sunday she reports two in- different sermons. But she was thrilled by a service in Saint Pauls. Seven thousand children sang, then with choir and organ, they all sang the 100th psalm, Coronation Anthem, Hale- lujah Chorus, God Save the King, Psalms 113 and 104. They were so far away that they could not hear a single word of the bishop's sermon, She carefully enumerates members of the royal family in at- tendance. Being specific in deny- ing that she had started it, she recites various pranks she terms Mischievous, which were played from time to time. By present day standards, they would be too sim- ple even to mention. Why was this old journal kept 125 years? Probably for some- thing else originally in the same book. The journal, written in ink, which is somewhat faded and hard to read took only a small part of the book, The owner then turned it over and started paging from the other cover. Seventy-two pages are missing. Maybe the writer wrote more exciting inci- dents later in life, too hot to keep. Then on page 73 starts a recipe for Black Currant Cordial” written in ink in an older or a different hand. There are over forty pages of recipes one of which is entitled “Recipe for Sweet Dreams” signed Mary Vorty 1873 who may be the original author. Various other names appear below recipes, ap- parently the source, The later ones, one dated 1915, are written in pen- cil in another, or even several different kinds of handwriting.

How about raisins?” Or, “Well, you don’t want to roll out your molassés cookies, you get too much flour in them that way.

Zollicoffer reportedly was shot from his horse after get- official investigation, and if he has the proper records, except when run through t } IRS will probably go easy.
