grains?
Who
is. our barkbone, au
head, and masso
brains?
Or does this s.o beckache,
headache, and mess ol
pains?
Anyway-it's the deputy
Back came Feldman with a
parody,written to a tune from
H.M.S.Pinafore
"Ted Sorensen was.first in his
class at school,
et declined legal offers; h
was no fool.
Istead he learned to play thy
piano with ease;
He studied all his chords and
scales until they were a
breeze.
And now that Harry Truman
has retired (with his
spouse),
We needed a pianist to cheer
up the White House.
So it was simple as it could be:
Ted became special counsel to
John F. Kennedy."
Such is life inside the White
House during these days' of
crisis, as the whole world
walks the razor edge of Berlin.
It is an extraordinary mixture
of deyotion,humanity, and the
spices of wry, dry wit, but as
wholesome a.mixture as ever
went into one of grandmoth-
er's cakes.
