Caught by a newspaper
#1

I'm not nuts about publicity, and have managed to avoid it all along.

However, I was in a conversation with the local newspaper's editor the other day on some cause, and he said that he wanted to do a piece in his paper on me. there was no graceful way out of it, so I reluctantly consented.

He was interested, particularly, in a Television set that I have, and that became the topic of his interest. The set is an RCA TRK-12, which isn't exactly something you see at the meets, and it arrested his attention. It will be interesting just how he assembles the facts that he noted, and how i look in the article. As it is, I try to avoid mirrors, so I shudder to think how I'll come across in newsprint.

He didn't make me pay for a damaged camera lens!
