EARL WAL: So I Hear For a good man now-a-days Is hard to find. Try Earl. this on your fiddle, Leo I asked for it. Now I'm swamped. Here are the words 10 the Playmate song with variations. Dear Mr. Walsh: "Sorry to be so long get­ ting this done. Am sending along the words to the son "Playmates" as I remember them. I believe both Jan Garber and Guy Lombardo had recordings of the song. PLAYMATES It was a sunny day.

Found many Plaindealer reader^ who remembered. Before we put our music away, here comes a letter from one of our faithful readers, Leo Heimer. He straightens us out on the "Good Man" words. I'll take his word. Music ran in the Heimer family. A good man is hard to find You always get the other kind. Just when you think that he's your pal You turn around and find him fooling *around another gal. X then you rave and you crave to see him lying in his grave. So if you've a man, take my advice. Kiss him every morning, hug him every night, GJve him lots of loving, Honey, treat him right * We get so much help. .

Joanne has another problem. We go briefly back to the birds. She wants to find out if any of our readers have hummingbirds. She has tried to lure them to her yard with no success. Call her. Not us. Our specialty is sparrows. As golfers, Ray Smith and Tom Sutton used to be rated as. also-rans. Not since last Sunday when they swept the field at Pistakee Country club. the two stars are now ready to take on all comers. Bill Veeck should have more than one Irish night a year. A large, happy crowd sang and cheered the Sox on to a 5-4 victory over the Baltimore Orioles. "Sox win! Sox win!", yelled Harry Caray as Ed Farmer ended the game with a strikeout with two on and two out. Must say I was a little excited myself. Rish Gossage, former Sox relief man, gets a lot of | with the New York Yi I wouldn't trade Farmer for Gossage -- even up. PAGE 7 • PLAINDEALER - WEDNESDAY. JULY 1G. 1MI they start talking about football in 90 degree weather, it turns me off on the game. ' Have always thought if the baseball teams can go south for training, the football teams should go north. OLD SAYINGS: Chickens come home to roost. (If somebody wronged another person by deed or big mouth, it was a "war­ ning). Judge not, lest ye be judged. Look for laughter in the eyes. A penny saved is a penny earned. Don't send a boy to market. (When a task is too great). Absence makes the heart grow fonder -- for somebody else. A little learning is a dangerous thing. Better the day, the better the deed. , "Too big for his britches" really referred to another part of the anatomy -- a swelled head.
