Gladys, a beautiful young girl, turned on the switch when she gave him a poison flower. That opened Dave's throttle wide and released a series of sneezes which would have made that little White Sox-Giant affair look like a ping-pong knitting party. You see, Dave was only a flirt, whereas Dad thought he was a capitalist with much goods. All he had was the hay fever. Everything went before that sneeze; Gladys, Gladys' skirt, Gladys' young man, Gladys' father, the pins on the alley, and finally it explodes a bomb and blows Dave himself up.
