TERROR TALE
I REMEMBER IN THE SUMMER OF 1964, I WAS AN ACTIVE SIX YEAR OLD.
MY FRIENDS AND I WOULD GO TO THE HILL AT THE SOUTHFIELD CIVIC
CENTER AND RUN UP AND DOWN IT FOR FUN AND EXCITEMENT. THE
GARDENER OVER THERE TOLD US ABOUT HOOP SNAKES. HE SAID THEY WERE
SNAKES ROLLED UP LIKE HOULA HOOPS AND THEY ROLL DOWN HILLS.
HE TOLD US TO RUN ZIG ZAG SO AS NOT TO GET CAUGHT BY THE LITTLE
CREATURES.

POLISH JOKE
Historical record from James Callow Folklore Archive.
IN 1975 MAYOR YOUNG DECLARED WAR ON THE RATS IN DETROIT.
HE ORDERED THE HEALTH INSPECTOR TO SEND NINE POLISH EXTERMINATORS
DOWN INTO THE SEWERS TO WIPE OUT THE RODENTS. A MONTH LATER
ONLY SIX OF THE NINE POLES CAME BACK. "WHAT HAPPENED TO THE OTHER

REPLIED THE INSPECTOR, "AND OUT OF THE SIX THAT RETURNED, TWO
BROUGHT BACK WAR BRIDES."
