Levelling Off
By CHARLIE DIDWAY
WHEN THE INITIAL letters
of an organization or program
are used to shorten its name, the
abbreviated form rarely spells
anything, but is Readily adopted
by a public which has so-many
things on its mind that it' can’t
remember lengthy names. No-
table exceptions to the general
rule that the abbreviations do not
spell anything are CROP (Christ-
ian Rural Overseas Program) and
CARE.

ON THE SAME subject Bob
Dennis drew a chuckle from
the crowd at Monday night's
Oil Progress banquet when he
introduced the male quartet he
leads as a member of SPEBS-
QSA (Society for the Preser-
vation and Encouragement of
Barber Shop Quartet Singing
in America). Another alpha-
betical combination which
cropped up at the banquet—
and it, too, spells something—
was PAD (Petroleum Adminis-
tration for Defense).
...
MOST EVERYONE, of course
knows that a VIP is a Very Im-
portant Person, not to be confus-
ed with VEEP, sometimes used
by headline writers who can’t
make Vice - President fit. HST
was once a VEEP, FDR never
was, but his name frequently
made the headlines in the short-
ened form.
DURING THE WAR. the ab-
breviated forma of some pf tha
women's seryice branches were
readily adopted (or' general
usage. Whila* WAVE and
SPAR spelled something, there
is no such word as WAC'.
Other war-time terms, soma of
, which havo carried oyer into
peace-lime, were USi^AF, ETO.
USO. etc.
* • *
ONE OF THE few government
agencies whose abbreviated name
spells something is CAB (Civil
Aeronautics Board). Some which
don't ai'e FEPC, FHA, USDA, A-
EC, FDIC, FBI, FPC, ICC FCC,
NLRB and RFC.

ONCE CAUGHT in a jam at
a busy doorway, we were ask-
ed by a sympathetic friend why
we didn't take out membership
In the GTHTDGOAFAYC. Ho
said it was a shortened form of
"Get the H--1 to the Door and
Got Out as Fait as You Can
Club."
* * *
ALL 26 LETTERS of the al-
phabet have been used to form a
safety code for motorists. Poet-
ically speaking, it lacKh quality,
but if just one motorist will take
heed of its warning we will have
been justified in printing it:
Accidents caused by
Bad brakes, lack of
Courtesy and care;
Drunkenness or fast driving or
Even by
Failure to signal, may mean
Goodbye, old world; passing on
Hills, dashing througn
Intersections or just
Jaywalking, by folks who
Know better, can end
Life for pedestrians, and
Motorists, too.
Now, if you desire to reach
Old age and would escape
Painful injury, be
Quick to obey all traffic
Rules, signs and
Signals and never
Take chances of having an
Ugly accident, always being
Very careful, whether
Walking or driving or else
X will mark the spot where
Your own life end#d before its
Zenith was reached.
