Laffmen Secede In Half Manassas

Uninformed sources reported last night that there will be a minor disturbance at the intersection of Mt. Auburn and Bow streets at 2 p.m. today. The Lampoon will "secede from the Union" and "give its building to the Gary Davis World Organization, Citizens of the World, Ine."

According to Lionel ("The Toy") Train ocC, chief promoter and engineer, ceremonies are set to take place, and because they will be held on the grounds of the "sovereign State of Lampoon," police cannot legally interfere.
