Dear Ann Landers,
know people write to you with all kinds of questions, so I wasn't surprised when that man from Tallahassee asked you to help him get an agent for his dog act. I remember he has some apricot toy poodles named Ginger, Gigi and Pepper, and they play the piano. He said they are the only piano-playing dogs in the world, which I can believe. You told him that booking animal acts was not your line of work and suggested that maybe Johnny Carson or David Letterman might give him a break. Within a few days, those very same poodles appeared on a TV show (not the shows you mentioned) and performed very well. I'll bet they get some bookings. Since you helped that guy, maybe you can do something for me. I have a couple of wire-haired terriers that sing. I play tunes on the fid-dle like "Sioux City Sue" and "How Come You Do Me Like You Do Do Do," and the dogs harmonize like the Supremes. Everybody de-serves one big break in life, and this could be mine. How about it, Annie old girl? -Longtime Admirer in Arlington Heights, 111.

Our Reader to Reader Question of the Week:


Dear Readers,
, kick, gouge, scratch” and put the knee where it hurts the most. That advice may be fine under certain circumstances, but a very im-portant element was left out of your response. No mention was made of the armed attacker. When a gun or a knife is held at the victim’s throat, the possibility of being maimed or killed is very real. The March 23, 1981, issue of Time magazine on violent crime put it well. Capt. Ephrine F. Leija of the Houston police department said, “Do the best you can under difficult circumstances. Above all, don’t try to be a hero.” I am glad you urged all rape victims to report the crime at once and to give as accurate a description as possible. May I add, if he is appre-hended, don’t be afraid to testify. We must do everything we can to get these sick creeps off the streets. -Chicago Suburbanite
