Vet Set 10/09/1954. I reminds me of a skit that was done on a tv program. It showed people setting in the vet office and a man trying to get a pet in to the office.
Well Post editors, this son of a lawyer has decided cartoon number 8 (Mrs. Baxter) is number one, with number 7 coming in a close 2nd. The rest are excellent too, so I’ll just put my subpoenas back in the briefcase until next Wednesday. Who knows WHAT will have transpired in the Dirty Laundrie case by then. Something big, and soon.
