Jack Rash There is an American verb that is so peculiarly American, so indigenous and so much a mainspring and exemplar of the national ethos that it has no equivalent in any other language. This is the verb to goose. Now every one of us understands the definition of "to goose", having most probably learned the treacherous ins and outs of the practice at first hand, as a victim. As a recreational activity, most of us can take it or leave it, though we don't ordinarily suffer the adepts of the sport willingly. If people of this sort should begin making inroads into the sanctum of our.country club, for example, we .recognize in our despair and panic that the world is littered with poolside cocktails and tennis pros and we take ourselves off to other parts; we are not likely to put up with a low-class low-class clientele, not at that price. ' To explain where in its history the common barnyard fowl became linked with the opprobrious op-probrious habit that pairs manual dexterity with oily stealth, expert opinion says this: Geese are notoriously irritable, peevish, and choleric they rebuff the friendly advances of a human being by the means of an unheralded , 'assault on the fundament. Another possible source of the word lies in the age-old custom of gently feeling of a goose's hindquarters before turning it into the fields to graze or whatever it is a goose does out on the range. From the point of view of the goose this probe no doubt smacks of the brassiest type of rudeness, deserving of any sort of retaliation that comes in its way. But : its human tormentor has a motive: If he feels ' an egg in the caboose, the bird is kept in the pen. ' In 1933 an adjective "goosey", meaning nervous and touchy, was recorded; we don't hear much of it now. No one has explained . why one person is "goosey" while another is not. Some people resent goosing no more than they resent a hearty handshake. On the other : hand, some are apt to fly into a whirlwind of .activity and verbal abuse, executing violent , pirouettes and loosing scarifying diction at one and the same moment . '.,. Back in the thirties the practice of goosing . 'was blamed for many serious industrial ac-,'. ac-,'. cidents. A point of near-hysteria was reached, prompting the National Safety Council to .issue stern exhortations against this life-"threatening life-"threatening and probably subversive activity. One balefully worded poster described the . fate of one goosey man who jumped off a seal-fold seal-fold and broke his legs, and another one told of a worker who suddenly decamped from a 1 catwalk into a pot of molten slag, purely as a result of the ministrations of a proficient of the art. . Yet another screed against goosing zeroed in on the branch of the science dealing with the goose by air hose. Such attention to thoroughness and workmanship may actually kill the victim of it, admonished the Council darkly. The Army and the Navy also frowned on it; the Army extended its blast to include the dreaded "hotfoot", wherein lighted matches are set in the crack above the sole of a person's per-son's shoe, while the person is occupying the shoe. This was a popular pastime in boot-camps boot-camps circa 1943; they have probably got beyond be-yond that now. During the heyday of Douglas Fairbanks the craze for goosing snowballed into a national mania. It consternated Hollywood directors especially, as they watched film footage rendered useless by a sudden out break of the disease on the set . So relentless was the senior Fairbanks, so notorious and so universally feared, he was kept under round-the-clock surveillance. He took to carrying out his malignant designs by means of a fishing rod - a long one. made of bamboo which he operated from behind the scenes. Finally-under duress, under threat of a staggering fine-he was forced to retire at the height of his abilities. Haywire is the only authentic lumberjack word to be permanently engraved on the American vernacular. This wire is the springy stuff that is used to bind bales of hay into neat bundles. Hay. of course, is a staple of horses and oxen without which logging outfits of an early era could never have pierced pier-ced any great distance into the forest primeval. Wagon-drivers had a habit of saving these long strands of wire, which were used in all sorts of mending chores. Cooks used the wire strung above their stoves-to dry clothes on, or as a rack for ladles, and sometimes to bind the siove itself into an upright assemblage of parts'. Logging camps that were impoverished in the way of first -class equipment came to be known as "haywire camps". And 'haywire" dripped into general usage with the overall meaning of broken, busted, ruined, demented, demen-ted, and no-good. There are those who insist that the verb "to go haywire" needed no lumber-camp springboard spring-board to propel it into everyday conversation. To any civilian who ever parted the binding on a hay-bale there is no mystique in the dastard gymnastics of that liberated wire. The first time H.L. Mencken the newspaperman news-paperman and connoiseur of American slang heard the phrase high on the hog he was sitting in on a meeting of black Democrats in Chicago in 1940. They had met - Mencken said to thrash out a list of (heir various demands and grievances, etc. tine ii them arose and reduced hours of heal and debate to one simple sim-ple and poimuiii!
