the 1952 presidential election are landing from their long beon a remote island.
In the far away Catshill Mountains the thunder of last month's election has just awakened Rio Van GOP Winkler from a slumber of 20 years.
The electoral college is getting a new faculty and a new football team, thanks to the voters.
All this was enacted tonight at the Hotel Statler where the Gridiron Club, an organization Washington newspaper correspondents, held its winter dinner. It was the 67-year old club's first post-election gathering and in the editorial style leaders of both parties were toasted and then roasted in musical and humorous skits.
About 500 guests attended, including foreign diplomats, members of the Truman cabinet and of the Eisenhower cabinet-to-be Supreme Court justices and leaders in fields of government journalism and business.
Vice President-elect Richard Nixon and Gov. Adlai E. Stevenson were speakers. By tradition.

Gridiron Club Parodies Election 'Mutiny Against the Bounty'
HINGTON, Dec. 13 UP—
ratic refugees from the Bay Against the Bounty"—1952 presidential election—leading from their long boat remote island.
The far away Catskillains the thunder of last's election has just awakened Rio Van GOP Winkle a number of 20 years.
Electoral college is getting faculty and a new football thanks to the voters.
This was enacted tonight at Del Statler where the Gridiron club, an organization of Rigton newspaper corresponsals, held its winter dinner. The 67-year old club's first election gathering and in tra- style leaders of both par- ties roasted and then roasted local and humorous skits.
But 500 guests attended, in- foreign diplomats, mem- ficials of the Truman cabinet and Eisenhower cabinet-to-be, one Court justices and in fields of government, Islam and business.
President-elect Richard M. and Gov. Adalai E. Steven-re speakers. By tradition their remarks were off-the-record. Vice President Barkley was the ranking guest.
The traditional speech made in a darkened room, the "Speech in the Dark," was by Paul R. Leach, Washington bureau chief of the Chicago Dally News and the Knight newspapers, the 1952 club president.
Leach said some people believed Santa Claus had been shot, at last, on Nov. 4 by the voters. But he added Santa Claus metely was in hiding as John L. Lewis soon found out. After the election, President Truman granted Lewis' soft coal miners a $1.20 daily wage increase, overruling the Wage Stabilization Board.
As a take-off on Gen. Eisenhower's campaign "Crusade" theme, members of the Gridiron chorus were costumed as Crusaders and marched solemnly upon the stage to set the 1952 Gridiron theme. As the United States Marine Band orchestra bloomed out with "Dixie," the Crusaders waved Confederate flags and sang:
"Away down South in the land of cotton"
"Harry Truman's done forgotten"
"Look away, look away, look away, Dixie land!"
"In Dixie land where Ike was born"
"Early on one frosty morn"
"Look away, look away, look away, Dixie land!"
The "Mutiny Against the Bounty" scene was set on a far away Pacific Isle. Drifting on the Beach, the club members impersonating Captain Adalai Bly Stevenson, Christian Steve Mitchell and other Democratic big shots lamented their plight, the wrecking of their war sloop. Crew members were dressed as farmers and five per centers.
It was explained that the victims of the wreck "never had it done to them so good," before.
Christian Mitchell tried to cheer Captain Stevenson by reminding him: "We don't have to clean up the mess, anyway."

Anaheim Gazetteer
by JOHN S. NEUBAUER
Of all the days that make a week
I dearly love but one day—
And that's the day that comes betwixt
A Saturday and a Monday.
—Henry Carey
INSPIRATIONAL — The Sabbath was made for man, and not man for the Sabbath.—Mark 2: 27.
PROGRESS — Anaheim will soon have several more major industries. Representatives for one of the "big four" automotive manufacturers are looking for a likely site for a billion dollar plant.
Representatives of breweries are sampling well-water in and around Anaheim and it could be that a suds manufacturer might make Anaheim home.
Anaheim's ever growing labor pool makes it a logical site for big manufacturing operations. Anaheim also has adequate truck and rail transportation.
Anaheim Chamber of Commerce officials will have an announcement to make tomorrow night. This will be one of several.
Each new plant adds another payroll to the community's economy. It also brings additional workers and supervisors to Anaheim and its environs: But it also provides employment for those already located here.
Anaheim is growing in economic importance.
BRIEFLY NOTED—Vic Ruddy suspected what we told you: Fred Haney wouldn't be back at La Palma Park in the spring, with the Hollywood Stars. The Mahatamim of Baseball, Branch Rickey, will use Haney's talents at Pittsburgh. Friendly Fred is certain to drop in for a visit or two with Rickey. They always drop by to say: "Hello" to Anaheim's cigar-smoking park superintendent.
SPORTS—While Lynn Arnett may be one of the greatest bowlers
Democratic big shots lamented their plight, the wrecking of their war sloop. Crew members were dressed as farmers and five per centers.
It was explained that the victims of the wreck "never had it done to them so good," before.
Christian Mitchell tried to cheer Captain Stevenson by reminding him: "We don't have to clean up the mess, anyway."
An actor cast as Vice President Barkley looked across the sands and saw a man "Walking, just walking."
To the tune of "Walkin' to Missouri," the soloist sang:
"It looks like Harry, walkin', walkin',
"Walkin' to Missouri.
He steps along so spry.
It looks like Harry, walkin'.
Walkin' to Missouri.
Got a twinkle in his eye.
He says he's happy his job is done,
"Got time now to have some fun"...
Setting for the Rip Van GOP musical skit was "Ike's Tavern," lately called "Harry's Place." Tavern keeper was Thomas E. Dewey. Rip wanted to know what's all the celebrating about, now that he's awake from the nap he started in 1932.
Joe Martin, speaker-to-be of the House, told him to the tune of the "Beer Barrel Polka:"
"This is election, some election,
"Brings the GOP in bloom now,
"And there'll not be any room now
"For a worry or a gloom now.
"There'll be music, there'll be dancing
"While the GOP is prancing—
"That is what we promise...".
After Rip's memory was restored completely he stripped off his whiskers and shouted "I am Herbert Hoover," then he gave the President-elect some information concerning the difference between the Army and politics.
SPORTS—While Lynn Arnett may be one of the greatest bowlers ever developed in Anaheim. Dick Gray, Pep Lake, Les Moon, George Miller and Joe Schultz would share "honors" as Anaheim's most ardent golf enthusiasts. Huge Houston Fanlmer had a chance to play pro basketball for Philadelphia... Jerry Shipkey, the hard-hitting Anaheimer, is considered one of the top-flight pro gridders. And Daniel Allec is a sportsman, too. But his activities runs to antiquated horseless carriages.
PASSING—Clayton Mallery, the girls' softball impresario. He has been playing second fiddle to the Buena Park Lynx for a long time. Some civic minded Anaheim organization would do well to sponsor his girls. Bill Lotis is an Anahelmer who hasn't forgotten the pants burgler. That $200 would come in mighty handy for Christmas shopping. Remember: only NINE more shopping days 'till Kris Kringle... Eddie Ochoa who helps make those optical illusions was quite an athlete at Anahi. There wasn't anything the little fellow couldn't do well... Rev. Bob Keverkian, like the Rev. Bob Richards, the pole jumping champion, believes competitive athletics is good for the soul... Ted Shipkey, former all-America footballer from Stanford and name coach, who handles the Fullerton end of the Shipkey-Pearson enterprise... Tex Middleton, Anaheim's most ardent tennis advocate... Billy Cantrell, Anaheim's midget race enthusiast, is an outstanding mechanic. He really savvies those supercharged gas burners.
