Only Some Oil Needed
Sir:
Your article (Time, April l) concerning the current telephone booth packing contests was wrong when it claimed the record for America.

This proves the supremacy of Soviet education.

Sir:
Re those handsome brutes in your April 1 story, you just promise that next time you find 25 handsome men packed in a box, you will send them up to little old me, C.O.D.
Sir:
These phone booth packers—why not pour oil over them and sell them to America as canned meat. We could use the dollars.
