‘Penny For Your Thoughts’
Editor:
There was in College Corners
a retired soldier, Private Penny,
who ran a respectable cafeteria,
Sagreasa. Things ran smoothly
until one day there came the need
for greater efficiency. As he was
a resourceful man, Private Penny
quickly realized that the answer
to all his problems was to halt
the flow of cups from his estab
lishment.
Obviously, his plan was ex-
t r e m e 1 y practical. Customers
would quit using cups if they
could no longer be taken out. Af
ter all, the non-biogradable bev
erage recepticles were surely
taken only as part of a bizzare
plot to litter College Corners.
Furthermore, no one would drink
his fill if all drinking had to be
done inside. (As everyone knows,
people drink more out of doors
than in.) Finally, the overwhelm

Lindsey said.
A persuasive personage, in
spelling out conservative beliefs
in the free market system, Ma
honey was a primary force in
building the Conservative Party
of New York State into a potent
factor in the politics of the 1970s.
His experience in the origins of
the party include the eclipse of
the Liberal Party in New York,
William F. Buckley’s 1965 cam
paign for mayor, the 1969 defeat
of Mayor John Lindsay and Corig.
John Ashbrook’s challenge to the
Nixon administration.
The Poltical Forum speaker is
deeply committed to America’s
free market institutions, opposed
to aggressive Communism on the
forces of justice and order and
concerned with the nation’s moral
and religious decline. <’ f
The author of “Actions Speak

Mahoney served as an officer
in the U.S. Coast Guard, worked
for a major Wall Street firm and
practiced law three years, until
the founding of the Conservative
Party.

therefore, they were sure to ap

Of course, there were a few
minor problems with his plan, but
none that merited consideration.
First, some of the brave young
lads employed at Sagreasa must
voluntarily guard the doors
against those few ruffians, crim
inals, perverts and sadists who
might attempt to run the block
ade. Second, a tiny minority could,
conceivably, after drinking their
fill, throw away full cups at the
door as a sign of protest. Third,
the brave lads guarding the doors
were no longer available for bus
ing trays or serving food. How
ever, this was not really a prob
lem because all the patrons began
busing their trays when they
could no longer carry cups out.
Thanks to Private Penny’s swift
and decisive action, College Cor
ners was saved from near dis
aster. Others might have chosen
the first method that appeared to
them, but he thoroughly analyzed
(eenie, meeni, miini, moe) all pos
sible alternatives and chose the
one solution that could really cut
costs. Oh, but don’t think his ef
forts went unrewarded! For his
distinguished service, innovations,
and unprecedented good-will to
ward College Corners residents,
Private Penny was promoted to
Corporal Quarter and was even
deemed the obvious choice to be
put in charge of bicycle registra
tion.
