 | Ever on the alert, when we learned there was a Twisted Titles column running in the Baywood Bulletin, we called Henry (Bud) Morris ‘39 to ask him what was up. Morris confirmed the charge and said that he had started up the column at his Castro Valley retirement community, where the average age is 87. “There are about 200 intelligent, active seniors here who are always game for a good challenge. With that in mind, I started a Twisted Titles column--giving, of course, proper credit to the Monthly.” How’s it going? “Well, I’ve had trouble explaining exactly what a twisted title is”--we know the feeling--”and I’ve only gotten a few entries from other people. But,” Bud adds, “one of the ladies I eat with says it’s keeping her up at night.” Whatever you do at night or during your so-called working hours, send in your titles--of a book, movie, play, or whatever-substituting one letter only and adding a snappy underline, to Twisted Titles, California Monthly, Alumni House, Berkeley 94720. The title Title comes from the high-flying J.W. Downs. |
