By GARY LARSON
In the early days, living in their squail apartment, all three shared dreams of success. In the end, however, Bob the Spoon and Ernie the Fork wound up in an old silverware drawer and only Mac went on to fame and fortune.

Jack Richardson, the chief enforcement officer for the state Alcohol Beverage Control division, said that the ABC was ready to assist in the investigation if Flory requested it, but that no request had yet been made.
Charles Wheeler, KU Interfraternity Council president, said no one had contacted the council about Flory's investigation.
"A lot of houses are incorporating liquor rules," he said. "It's kind of a trend
Wheeler said the council did not provide fraternities with guidelines for allowing liquor at parties or in fraternity houses. Such guidelines are the responsibility of the fraternities' national organizations, he said.
"But regardless of how strict the rules you propose are, you can prohibit liqor from being in the house. I mean, you can make up all kind of rules and regs, but there are always going to be people who try to break the rules and people who make mistakes, and that's where it gets bad."
Trent Wagner, Phi Gamma Delta historian, said he did not know whether the four students had been drinking at the party.
He said the fraternity had canceled a party it had scheduled for Friday with the Sigma Chi fraternity.
He said one accident witness who had changed his statement had explained the change to Hall's satisfaction.
"People were not in the mood for having fun. Everyone is still kind of down." he said.
Meanwhile. Hall said the highway patrol was finished with its investigation.
The witness had been driving a car northbound on highway 24-59 when the accident occurred. He first told police that a car passed him at 70 mph about a mile south of the train crossing, turned left onto the county road, drove onto the tracks and was struck by the train.
Hall said the witness later said the car he had seen was not the same car involved in the fatal wreck.
The witness, who asked not to be identified, said last week that the car that passed him on the highway was a blue 1968 or '69 Camaro with jacked-up rear wheels and a stabilizer fin mounted on the trunk.
"It was a green Plymouth Horizon, four-door, with a luggage rack on top," he said.
He said he was familiar with McDevitt's car.
Hall said that at first he thought the witness was changing his story to protect the victims, but later became confused with the witness's explanation.
"I interviewed the witness and his passenger separately, and their statements match," he said.

I think it's a national trend. We must be living in a society that says it's OK to cheat on your taxes. If it can help you get ahead, why not? If it will help you get into KU, why not?'
— Bruce Lindvall director of admissions
"Unless something happens to change a person . . . I'm not sure there's a reason for him to change." Lindvall said. "I would like to think that (a hearing) would be such a reason."
Sixty-one percent of Americans say "it's no sin to tell a lie at least sometimes," a USA Weekend poll reported March 8. One in five students lie about their grades in school, the poll also said.
Donald Marquis, an associate professor of philosophy at KU, agreed that students take their cue from society.
"The deeper problem is the way we orient students toward competition." Genova said. The emphasis on academic achievement responds that way to meet the challenge.
Linda Jenkins, Overland Park graduate student in religious studies, advocates stronger university policies.
"The message that society gives young people is that lying is perfectly all right. Once you adopt that view, things start breaking down," Marquis said, citing the recent Iran-contra scandal.
"Somewhere we have to call a halt to it." Jenkins said. "The University has to take action."
Once individuals have reached the university level, l衡er measures are needed because their values are set. Jenkins said.
Anthony Genova, professor of philosophy, said student dishonesty was understandable because of society's high premium on success.
"If students expect to be treated as adults, they need to live up to that," Jenkins said.

1787 Signing of the Constitution, George Washington Presiding by Howard Chandler Christie
Our Constitution was born out of a cacophony of competing voices.
But today the freedom of speech that remains the hallmark of our Constitution may be threatened
The NAAAF Essay Contest is designed to emphasize the importance of free speech and open debate in a vital area.
In his best-selling book, They Dare to Speak Out: People and Institutions Confront Israel's Lobby, former Congressman Paul Findley sounds an alarm: "It is clear that many Americans do not feel they can speak freely on one of the most complicated and challenging current issues. The Arab-Iraqish dispute"
Is he right? What do you think?
Full time college and university students are invited to submit a critical essay of 2,500 words or less on the subject "The Development of American Middle East Policy. Is Free Speech Threatened?"
There will be 200 regional winners of $1,000 each and 10 national winners of an additional $4,000 each.
The contest is sponsored by the NAAA Foundation, a charitable organization which carries out educational programs on Middle East subjects.
Television commentator Tom Braden serves as Honorary Chairman of the Selection Committee. Distinguished columnist Carl Rowan is Awards Chairman
