Seed for the springtime! Hope was in the sound, And gladness lifts through every singing word. I gathered the shaken seed from stem and ground, And quite distinct were the clear words that I “I will not leave you comfortless . . .” This pod, Dark as it seems, will someday blaze with light. “Except a grain of wheat falls to the ground . .” Here is the golden cosmos, here the white: Seed for the springtime—seed for a new dawn, That life and love and beauty may go on. “GRACE NOLL CROWELL BY INEZ GERHARD a HUSSEY may some day get the kind of roles she deserves in pictures; until then she'll probably continue to do her best work on the stage. Her new picture is Paramount’s ‘‘The Great Gatsby”; her current play, ‘‘Goodbye My Fancy,” in which she has the role created by Madeleine Carroll. She has moved her famRUTH HUSSEY ily—husband, two small boys and a dog—to New York for its duration. Lunching with three members of the press, she could hardly get in a word until they finished telling her, at length, how wonderful she had been in “State of the Union,’ and how much they hope that Hollywood will soon do right by her, That same day. Betty — Field lunched at an adjoining table. She and Miss Hussey hadn’t seen each other since they worked together in “Gatsby,” in which Miss Field and Alan Ladd star. MacDonald Carey and Barry Sullivan are featured. Off-stage atmosphere: Twe deputies of the Hollywood sheriff’s office stood guard for two days over the machine gun used in RKO’s “Follow Me Quietly.”” The law . demands that such guns be constantly under the eye of a law enforcement officer while in use in a picture, and that it ,be in the ~ hands of an officer of the law between takes. Ne unscheduled shooting allowed! Jay Livingston and Ray Evans, who wrote ‘Buttons and Bows” for.Bob Hope’s ‘The Paleface,” have done such a good job on _“Fancy Pants,” written for his “When Men Are Men,” that he thought that would be a good title for the picture. However, the other title sticks. Meanwhile Evans and Livingston, authors of “To Each His Own” and other hits, are ‘MARRYING’ ENGEL MAY BE FREED.. N.Y. Reds Didn't Register as Man and Wife . .

When a girl meets a Russian agent in New York and she is carrying a bag loaded with secret papers from government files why should ‘it make any difference whether she worked for the Carnegie library and took a rug from some auto dealer?” “Tt’s like that trial of the eleven Communists in New York. They all deny they registered in Baltimore as man and wife and say that when they were arrested on that bus they were just getting material for a novel.” s s co) “I can’t see why President Truman named Perle Mesta to that supreme court vacancy anyhow when Wagner-— stepped out with Justices Palmer, Murphy, Musial and Waitkus dissenting.” “It was all on account of the Taft-Hartkins law.’ “Where does that stand now?’ “The part requiring anybody to answer yes or no has been cut out but everything else is left in, including the agenda which lets both sides bring their own referee and puts the coal miners on a three day week.”’ : a a a Ima Dodo says-he read the verdict in the case but couldn’t find out whether Judy Coplon retained the custody of the-microphone. s s s The writer of this column does not claim to be the seventh son of a seventh son, but the following chapter from a book by him, ‘Private Purkey’s Private Peace” (the original and much more apt title was “Peace, Wearing Purple Tights’), published a few weeks, after World War II ended, revealed distinct powers of prophecy. In the story, Private Purkey and_ several companions crashed a _ peace conference in Paris, a_ feat duplicated in a way by Garry Davis a few weeks ago. And in a chapter headed “Discord in the Dovecotes” ye ed pictured the collapse of peace hopes, .the friction between the great powers, etc. thusly: Months have now elapsed since the peace.

There were rumors that Anthony Eden had come out of a council meeting with the ‘‘Shiner of the Year,’’ that an American peace conferee had been seen rolling on the floor with a Russian brother, and that Big Three meetings were being opened with demonstrations in jiu-jitsu. The spirit of mutual distrust was rampant. The assorted peace committees and sub-committees were giving evidences ‘of heading for the rocks and discord, and some of them were less inclined to try dynamite than to upholster the rocks for comfort. Tossing in the heavy seas of conflicting interests in small boats, they seemed at times bent on attempting to cure seasickness by resolution and plug up leaks by amendment. They were good men, kindly and well meaning, in these postwar world huddles, but they were in one of the hot spots of history, and it made them jumpy. s s s “There is no need for any businessman to seek assistance from in Washington.” President Tru: man.

Skis are no good up here. If we’re going to the top we’ll have to hobnail it up.’’ “We can quit and go down,” she said. Her voice held the barest hint of a taunt. She hated herself for it. “Quit nothing! Just because I’ve think you can stump me.” Tracy’s eyes flicked over the girl’s slim, wiry figure. ‘“‘Boy, you always could take it,” he admired. “Ever since we were kids I’ve had to hump to keep up with you.” The reference to their childhood escapades brought on a flood of regrets. : Two years ago he had left her with a brotherly clap on the back and a firm handclasp. She had almost hated him. He had gone down to the city to become an architect. Then he’d written about Jessica. She was a singer in a night club. He had fallen madly in love with her. His letters had been full of their romance. Generva had wanted to tell him to stop writing his everlasting prattle about a silly night club singer. Didn't he know that every word was a knife thrust in her heart? “You know,” he said suddenly, “you’re growing more lovely every year, Gen. Some day soon a man’s coming along and—” She laughed out loud and scrambled to her feet. ‘(Come on, City Man, we've got to get going if we want to make the top and get back before dark.’’ Tracy grinned and yanked himself up the first steep ascent. Before he had gone 10 feet he realized that it was a foolhardy business. Without ice picks -and ropes climbing was hazardous. He started ahead again and then stopped. Above him, maybe 30 feet away, he could make out the blurred form of Generva. The blurred outline stopped. He listened for her reply, but if she called the wind drowned it. For an instant her hobnailed boots were clawing against the ice. Then she came coasting down the incline, reaching frantically for bushes that slid through her hands. Tracy . made a lunge. His hand caught at her ski jacket as she whipped past, held, felt it slip through his fingers. S Heretes, oxy sovremed Sie Une. Horror-stricken, he watched her reach the ledge and flip over its edge, disappear. In a moment he was back on the flat ground looking over the edge, not daring to hope. Fifty feet below he made oiit a green patch, like a wisp of cloth caught in the gnarled branches of a hardwood shrub. r SEEMED like hours before he found footing against a rock 10 feet from where Generva clung to the hardwood, shrub. Directly beneath her was a 200-foot chasm. Tracy slipped the handle of one pole through the wheel of the other, tightened the strap on his wrist and cast out across

There was a queer light in his eyes. “It just came to me,” he said, “what this old world would be like without you, Gen. I mean—’’ he gulped—‘‘I never realized it before.

To catch these fish in mid-summer requires a change in strategy used earlier in the season. During July the big bluegills move from deep into. shallow waters in most of the lakes and reservoirs. At this time they are spawning, and if abundant in the . lake, they may-cause quite a com. motion in the shallow water areas. . If the fly fisherman approaches these areas quietly, preferably in 'a boat, and drops a small, corkbodied black bug or wet fly into . the middle of the confused fish, . strikes will be numerous and it is often easy to take the limit. To forestall the cries of the not‘too-well-informed conservationists, there is little criticism to be attached to taking bluegills dyring these periods. Conservation experts have discovered that there is little likelihood of the man with a rod and reel depleting fish population to a disastrous extent. In fact, many such experts declare that it is too little fishing, rather than too much, which makes . for small fish and poor fishing generally, particularly in the pan-fishing field. Research has indicated that it is almost impossible to overfish bluegills, therefore it is actually desirable to reduce the number of bluegills by fishing. In July and August the_ bluegill fisherman who uses worms and grubs really comes into his own, A casting rod, cane pole, or fly rod equipped with a light line, 'seven-foot leader of six pounds or less test and a size 4 hook is the ideal rig. A couple of BB shot may be used as_ sinkers if deeper . waters are to be fished. In late . afternoon, during the period men. tioned, watch for a rise of. blue. gills to the surface. This often happens in the early mornings. During . these “rises” is when the fly rod angler gets in his best licks. ‘The action is fast and furious and the fisherman who uses two or more flies on his leader will often take as many as two fish at a time, with a triple not too infrequent as to be amazing. . A A A Angler Gets Bird Walter tuna angler, strange catches in his angling McDonough, famed has had many career, but never one with feathers until he caught this “greater shearwater’ while fishing for tuna off New Jersey. The bird’s identity was established by the New Jersey Audubon society. The bird was hooked when a flock of them went after McDonough’s tuna lure. & A A . Use Landing Net There are no figures at hand at the moment, but it is a logical surused a landing net, are that it will become a “‘must’’ in his equipment. Like most fishing tackle, one can be bought for three dollars or 15 dollars, depending on your choice and bankroll. Here’s why a landing net is important: While your fish is still in the water a large percentage of his weight is supported by the water— but when you grab your line to try to lift him out, line and leader must support his entire weight 6 A A Buying Casting Line When the average fisherman buys a casting line the chances are that he will get at least an 18. pound test line and, quite often, ill insist on a 24 or even a 30pound test line. There’s hardly a fresh-water fish that Swims that could break an 18-pound test line in the hands of a fair-skilleq angler, and the experienced fisherman finds no difficulty in landing prize. winning heavyweights on lines testing from 9 to. 12 pounds, es Sturdy Wall Shelf Is Simple to Build O OTHER type of interior fur N nishings helps make a house into a home than do these’ interesting wall cabinets.
