    Joe was just after starting his job as a reporter for the local newspaper and he was looking for a scoop. The arch-bishop was visiting the town so Joe decided he would greet him as he arrived and see what he could get.

    As the arch-bishop got out of his car to greet all the people waiting for him at the church joe shouted out to the Arch-bishop

    "Arch-bishop, will you be visiting the red-light districh while you are in town?"

    The arch-bishop, incredulous at the question replied:
    "Is there a red-light district in this town?"
    Joe had his scoop.

    The next day the paper headlines read:


    Arch-bishops first words:"Is there a red-light district in this town?"

    In reality, this was an Archbishop of Canterbury who visited New York some time after World War II - "Are There Any Night Clubs In New York?"
