LORD HAW-HAW WRITES (Very) BLANK VERSE

By JONAH BARRINGTON Listening-in to the radio spar

LADIES and gentlemen.~~- Meet Lord (Shakespeare) Haw-Haw, bard of Zeesen-on- Avon. Your old friend has turned poet--has nibbled his pen and rumpled that beauti- ful wavy hair in a frenzied effort to produce a parody on our current song hit: "We're gonna hang our washing on the Siegfried Line."

Seems that he is angry about that song-considers it in bad taste,

So, in intense, biting tones, he recites this ditty to his ever-loving public:

"We're gonna cry out stink- ing fish until the end of time.

Have you any stinking fish,

Britannia dear?

|

If fresh fish still remains

too dear."

Maybe your suspicions are like mine that the poor fel- is weakening low's mind under the strain of being Britain's No. 1 Buffoon for Alterna- eight hours a day. tively, if you can see rhyme or reasoning in the above out. pouring, send me a post-card.

**

POINTS that I noticed dur- ing the Hitler outburst: That his speed has gone up to 150 words a minute--almost a gabble. That he took exactly one hour to work up any real applause. That the average cheer died after six seconds. That he coughed-twice. That the singing of the Horst Wessel song was abominably

We're gonna cry out alink-out of tune. That the B.B.C., ing fish until the end of while Hitler was speaking, time,

were playing "Sing a Song of Sunbeams."

Because the hot air war is

here.

Whether the aroma is bad

or fine

We'll advertise all without

a care.

We're gonna cry out stink-

ing fish until the end of Lime,

That Paris played "You have a certain charm” and "Let me call you my own.” That German radio station Stuttgart, supposed to be giv. ing Hitler, was well and truly jammed by reiterated errand boy whistle.
