Countries represented at the Interna tional Conference were the United States, France, Germany, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Great Britain, Australia, New Zealand, Hungary, Italy, Norway, Paraguay, Netherlands. Rumania, Turkey, Venezuela and Algeria. In addi- tion there were delegates from the International Labor Bureau and the league of nations.
In reviewing the proceedings of the conference, the current issue of the Statistical Bulletin of the Metropolitan Life Insurance com- pany says in part;
''It was decided that hereafter, in timelo of war, it will be neces- sary, in classifying mortality, to take account separately of the number of deaths from poison gas and from wounds arising out of war, not only among persons in the military service, but also among civilians. It was the con- sensus of opinion among the vital statiSticianS present that in the future, war will take far greater toll among civilian populations than ever before, and that large numbers of deaths among civilians will result from wounds in bom- bardments and from poison gas" |

Labor Legislation
Congressman J. Joseph Smith re- marked on the labor legislation passed under the Democratic ad- ministration and, at the Republican rally Lieutenant Colonel Roy E.. Rice, opycsing Congressman Smith for the Congressional seat, said that working men want jobs in private industry.
Both factions of the Independent Democratic Club were very promi- nently represented at all rallies.
High Sheriff J. Edward Slavin remarked that someone in the camp of his opponent, Michael D. McGov- ern. of New Haven, had sent out cir- culars showing how to vote the straight Democratic tiocket but to "cut" Sheriff Slavin. He said that he wouldn't ask anyone to vote for him unless the voter votes the straight Democratic ticket.
James A. Phelan was chairman at the first rally of the Democrats at Duggan School, Vincent A. Scully presided at Washington and South streets, and Raymond J. Fitzpatrick at O'Donnell's verandA. The candi- dates included also Representative Daniel J. Mahaney, Edward P. Egan and Hugo L. Guastaferri.

Charles Maloney, in whose behalf the mandamus "test case" is brought said that he had moved only, re- gently to his present address. He added that he had never received notice that his name was to be dropped from the list. He credited the removal of his name to an error on the census takers part

Washington, Nov. 8 = (UP) .. Twenty-one women in II states sought election today among hun- dreds of candidates for the United States Senate and House of Repre- Sentatives.
This 18th anniversary of nation wide suffrage for women found candidates of all political affiliations representing that sex on national and state ballots.
There were no women candidates for governor, but many were among those seeking other state offices.
Women candidates for Congress include nine Democrats, six Repub- icans, two Socialists, three Prohi- bitionists and one Communist. The states they seek to represent in Washington are Arkansas, Califor- mia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Massa- chusetts, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, Ohio and Oregon.
There was only one woman candi- date for the senate-Sen. Hattie w.. Caraway, D., Ark, seeking reelection for her second consecutive six-year team. If reelected-and nomination of the Democratic party in Arkansas is virtually tantamount to election she will be the only member of her sex among the other 95 senators.
Five of the women candidates are incumbents of the house: Reps. Mary T. Norton, D., N. J.; Caroline O'Day, D., N. Y.; Edith Nourse Rogers, R., Mass; Virginia E. Jenckes, D., Ind, and Nan Wood Honeyman, D., Ore.
Mrs. Norton attained national prominence at the last session of congress by her successful efforts to enact the wages and hours bill over opposition of the house rules com mittee. Mrs. Norton succeeded to the chairmanship of the house labor committee on the death of Rep. Will liam Connery, D., Mass. She has been a member of congress since 1925.
Two of the candidates Miss ODay and Miss Honeyman-are close friends of Mrs. Eleanor Roose- welt. |

TERM IS DROPPED | Judge Earnest c. Simpson in Su- perior Court today reopened the case of Harry Welch and suspended the balance of a 60 days jail sen- tence imposed September 21. Welch was also fined $400 and costs of $32.25, which have been paid.
A statement appended to the ap- plication for suspension of sentence was issued by States Attorney Wil- liam B. Fitzgerald to the effect that at the time of sentence he in- tended to recommend sentence of 45 days instead of 60 days. Press of business caused the error to be made, he said. |

COURT JUDGMENTS
Women Riding as Guests Lose Out in S5O,OOO
Civil Actions | J.fdge Earnest c. Simpson in su- periOr court today granted defend- ants judgments in the $50,O00 civil actions of Elsie Eckhardt and Gladys Ornlond of New York City against the Connecticut Company and the Yale Auto Parts Go. of New Haven.
The women sued claiming they were injured Sept. 25, 1887 in a collision involving a Conn. Co. bus and a vehicle owned by the Yale Auto Parts Go. They were riding i nthe latter vehicle as guest of Louis Isakoff.
Judge Simpson states that the proximate cause of the collision, which occurred at Ives Corner, Cheshire, was the negligence of Isakoff.
He considered the main question at issue whether the Yale Auto Parts could be held responsible for his negligent actions of Isakoff, who was not on company business. Judge Simpson says that the company can nit be held accountable for such acts, even though Isakoff is vice. president of the concern.
Attorney Herman J. Weisman appeared for the plaintiffs, with Carmody 6 Thoms defending. |

This presentation, something distinctive in program music, was the first concert of the sort ever offered in this city, and marked the first of the Fine Arts concerts sponsored again this sea- son by the Mattatuck Musical Arts society. The impression made last night by a musicIanly and sustained as well as restrained technique of the unique a capella octet was a favorable one.
Audience Appreciated
The audience appreciated to the fullest the capabilities of a family group, mother, five daughters and two sons, each an intelligent mu- sician without the distinction of being great soloists. There was no exceptional voice among the Won Trapp family, but each had c- ocific qualities and all blended favorably as one voice. All artists had per- feet pitch, singing the entire pro- gram unaccompanied. This family of Baron Won Trapp demonstrated the fine old custom, especially prac- ticed in Europeon countries, of in- timate music in the family, all edu- cated in the best traditions of good music. In addition to singing the family Von Trapp played old in- Struments, the block-fiute, gamba da viol, recorders, and the spinet, Dr. Franz Washer, conductor for the group, presiding at the last named.
The music as presented by the Won Trapp Choir did not call for any great dramatic feeling, but a lightness of ftouch, that was given delicately and skillfully. Two male voices of the sons, Dr. Rupert Won Trapp and Warner Won Trapp har- monized gracefully with the alto and soprano voices of Marie Augusta, Agathe, Maria, Joan, Hedwig and Martina Won Trapp. Their selections dated from the middle sixteenth century down to the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, beginning with "Wie Schon leuchetet der 7Iorgen- stern" from one of Johann Sebas- tian Bach's best chorals.' followed by Purcell's Lord, Now Lettest Thou Thy Servant Depart in Peace"
Old Choral Work
This first part of the program also included "Nunc Dimittis" writ ten for morning service at Vest minister Abbey in 1880: "The Silver Swan" by Orlando Gibbons, and Come Away Sweet Love and Play" by Thomas Greaves. The finest specimens of old choral work were included, the section ending with "Landsknechtstaendchen" by Or lando di Lasso with its ringing "don, don, don" refrain.
In the Austrian Masters group the singers opened with part of the Catholic liturgy for Good Friday. '"Tenebrae factus sunt" by Johann GsAA1ob GOC4 AAAs 44Cy odAA6 AAOAA 00O- zart "Bruder reicht die Hand gum Bunde" and Ave Maria; from Schu- bert the lovely Der Lindenbaum" and from Brahms "Die Waldes- nacht," and "Von alten Liebeslie- dern." The singers were not ap- preciably better in one group of the program than another but their per- formance of the songs by the Aus trian masters was a rare treat.
An example of early orchestral music as was furnished and the in- struments used by the musicians of an earlier time was given last night in the instrumental section of the program. Dr. Washer, director, pre- sided at the quaint spinet with its stringy tone q .ality. The grc'lp in troduced a trio, Sonata for two recorders and spinet with five short movements all in the early sonata form: a Suite for block-f1uet choir, gamba and spinet, and lastly Sare bande and Curante," the last named by Matthew Locke. the first by George Phillip Telleman, and the |

Into Strong Hillcrest Club | When Officer Ed Bendure Of the

All of which emphasizes that there's
National League side to the all-star
story, even though it isn't cause for
particular jubilation.
Situation Summed Up.
To sum up the interleague case,
worth keeping in mind:
/. That baseball Is not only q sport,
but big business. BY stressing de-
tense. including pitching, National
League teams play closer games and
wage tighter pennant races. They have
found pitchers duel, such as Hub
bell VS.. Dean, makes the turnstiles click
as rapidly as any more high explosive
offering, such as the Yankees have ex-
plotted.
2. That use Of a livelier ball, ex-
cept for the 1934-37 period OF stand
ardization, has helped distort the pic
ture and emphasize the power house
methods Of the American League, dat
ing from Babe Ruths acquisition by
the Yankees in 1920. The pay-off on
this power was self-evident at the box
office, but many baseball men believe
1t now has waned.
3. That, finally, without questioning
current Yankee team supremacy, the
facts show much Of the American
Leagues success has been due to (a)
dominating ,pennant clubs and (b)
greater unity or concentration of re-
sources in any situation involving
interleague rivalry. Aside from the
effect Of these factors, there Is little
to choose between the club strength Of
the two leagues. This spring, for ex-
ample, signs point to stronger Ma
tional League front. The Yankees,
minus Joe Di Maggie for the time
being, have Topped in the grapefruit
league. It's still too early, however, to
hang out any crepe on the Yankee
Stadium. |

BYAUGUSTAST0RM| |
Serafin's 80 Start in Rain
Cancelled as Jones Meet
Play Is Postponed. | BY PAUL NICHOLSON,
Associated Press Sports Writer. | AUGUSTA, Ga, April 2.-Saddest
OF all FairWay Bills in the land today
was Felix Serafin. the white-capped
golfer from Scranton, Pa. Felix was
convinced there was no justice in the
world, especially in golf.
AS one of the longest shots in A.
man field, Felix opened his play in the
fifth Augusta national invitation
championship yesterday with the GUS
tomary ID clubs in his bag. humping
heart and belief that all men, includ-
ing golfers, are born equal.
AS it began to rain--it always does
here when the national is played
Felix pulled his white cap over his
fioppy ears and went hog wild. He shot
the first nine holes in 80, four under
par, and prayed for more rain.
Rainin- the-Face Baked.
1t was when Felix was praying the
hardest that misfortune overlook him.
The tournament officials decided it
was raining far too hard. So they
postponed the tournament and can
celed all scores, ordering a revision
whereby the first round of 18 holes will
be played today with SO on Sunday and
the final l8 on Monday.
But I'm going wild and I love the
rain" hollered Felix. Why the folks
up North often call me Rain in-the-
Face Felix because go so good in the
rain"
But Felix had to join the "softies"
and now must start over again with
about as rosy prospects of shooting
another starting 80 as he has of sue
ceeding Byron Nelson as champion of
Bobby Jones annual coming out golf.
WatrOus, Ward Also Victims.
Two more victims of the false start
were Al Watrous of Detroit and Bud
Ward, the new Walker Cup player.
Each of them tailed "a on the out
ward nine and were bitterly disap-
pointed-almost as much so as Felix,
who has perhaps the ug.iest swing in
all professional golf.
I was just learning to chip over
streams and sink puts down stream
when they made me quit" groaned
Watrous.
Bobby Jones. making his fifth tour
nament appearance since his retire.
ment in 1880, played but one hole as
the rain pelted down. He got off a bad
drive, slammed his second into a trap,
was short with his third and over the
green with his fourth. But he dropped
3O-foot run shot for a great five.
When Serafin shot that 32," said
Farmer Gene Sarazen, Everybody got
scared to death. They misunderstood
the name. They thought it was Sara
Zen." |

Gets Crowd as 9 Schools
Vie at Targets. | BY BILL DISMER. JR. | rev persons outside the repre-
sentatlves of the nine Eastern COL
leges entered were expected to wit
ness a national championship event
here today, but sizable crowd was
expected at College Park for lacrosse
game which will not even count in
intercollegiate competition.
That was because the national event
was the Middle Atlantic shoot-offs
Of the National Intercollegiate Rifle
Matches for 1888. George Washington
being the host on its basement range
in Corcoran Hail. And there's as big
a kick in watching the actual firing
OF a rifle match as there is in merely
waiting for the world to end The
result is significant, but the acces-
sories to the fact are apt to be rather
boring.
At Byrd Stadium, however, Mary
lands lacrosse team was to play host
to one of the two teams which de-
feated it in 1887. Undefeated by any
college ten, the Terps bowed to Mount
Washington, and the latter was con-
ceded good chance of duplicating
last years feat today.
Terps Regain Two Stickmen.
Marylands hopes were somewhat
enhanced by the fact that Bob Nelson.
one of last years regulars, had re-
gained his eligibility status. Scho-
lastically ineligible since last fall,
Nelson has made up lost grades, and
President H. c. Byrd approved the
recommendation of the Committee on
Scholastic Regulations that he be
permitted to play.
Jim Hell, another of last wears
squad, also was to be available for
reserve strength. He'll also has re-
moved scholastic deficiencies.
Maryland Riflemen Favored.
Although G. w. was the host and
has a reputation for winning or being
nearer the top of the national tourna-
ment more than any other local
school, it was Maryland which was
considered the best bet of any home
town hope in todays rifling.

bU0YS RIDER HOPE.
Brother of Minor Lacquer
Is Impressive in First
High School Test. | BY BURTON HAWKINS. | If calling Jack Lyon constitutes an
April fool joke, Coach Herman Litt-
man of Roosevelt Is a confirmed sucker.
1t was the l6-year-old Lyon mot

ray of sunshine into the Rough Riders
baseball prospects by unraveling a neat
brand of pitching in his first real test.
Jacks pitching actually began sew
eral seasons ago. when. as mere baby,
he absorbed twirling niceties in his
back yard from his brother, Bob, a
former minor league hurler who is a
sandlot landmark here. Now he is
showing definite signs of developing
into. crack scholastic pitcher.
A slim right-hander who pitched for
Fort Stevens Post in the American
Junior Legion League last season, Jack
was sent to the mound in a practice
game against the hard-hitting WASH
ngton-Lee High outfit at Ballston, Va,
for six innings,
Makes Riders Title Threat.
For five innings Jack scattered three
singles. two of them scratches, handled
himself like veteran and sandwiched
in several Strikeouts. Not until the
sixth, when Tommy Simpson and
Kenneth McQuinn reached him for a
triple and double, did Jack yield run
and the result of his effectiveness
stamps Roosevelt a threat in the i'm
pending public high school campaign.
Brother Bob. a southpaW who has
pitched for a score of clubs here,
notably G. P. O. and Heurich Brewers
last season, naturally takes pride in
Jacks development, for as far back as
the neighbors can remember. Bob has
been taking Jack out to the back yard
each Sunday for singing session.
His patience is beginning to yield
dividends.
If Jack continues his effectiveness,
Rcosevelt's sorest problem will be
solved, for Coach Littman is set at
every other post. The burden is on
Lyon, Billy Bauer Jack Reddinger
and Dan Boothe and largely upon
their performances will hinge the
Rough Riders hopes in the interhigh

The brothers have been breathing
baseball since birth and act like it on
the field. Harry Gray, all-Florida
State shortstop last year, and Jack
Smith, a senior, round out the garden
ing corps.
Johnny Thrift, who was an all-high
choice in his sophomore year, again
has been installed at third base and
is the nominee of Coach Littman to
take his diamond talent somewhere in

post, with lanky Sylvan Stein func-
tioning at first base.

most promising scholastic athletes in
this sector.

Practices Trading, Writing
of Persuasive Wires
Before Breakfast. | By JOHN LARDNER. |
ORLANDO, Fla, April I'm the
small hours of the morning there is
commotion all over Florida, as seven
baseball club owners begin rising early
to get ahead of Mr. Clark Griffith
They tell me the same phenomenon
occurs in California, Texas, Louisiana
and Mississippi
Thomas Yawkey leaves call for
$3.50 am. Jake Rupert, Gerry Nu-
gent, Walter Briggs and Cornelius
Mack are summoned at 4. Lou Com
iskey, Phil Wrigley and William Bens-
wanger arise at S, allowing three hours
for the difference in time All the
rest of the boys are up by $50, brush
ing their teeth and glancing uneasily
over their shoulders.
1t may be, of course, that Mr.. Grif-
nth will cross them up by remaining
in the hay till noon. He never gives
notice OF his plans. 1t would be nice
of him to post bulletin, such as
"Outsmarting operations will begin at
1890 am. sharp, with one hour off
for lunch" But he doesn't do it..
mo quarter given and none asked"
is the motto of the Grifhths-in more
ways than one
Griffith Brain Honed Daily.
After careful investigation learn
that Mr.. Griffith devotes Is minutes
every morning to sharpening his brain.
This honing program is facilitated by
grindstone, built into the wall of
Mr. Grifflths bathroom.
Setting-up exercises occupy the time
from $50 to 9 am. Mr.. Griffith calls
in stooge and trades him an empty
waste basket for a full waste basket.
This exercise is repeated 25 times.
The Washington club boss rings for
stenographer and dictates kilograms
for an hour. These are specimen
kilograms:
Col, Jake Rupert, New York Yam
KEGS, st. Petersburg, Fla: Am pre-
pared to accept 100000 cash for
Buddy Myer. Cannot hold the offer
open for long, so do not delay"
Walter Briggs, Detroit Tigers, Lake
land, Fla: Stand ready to trade my
ball club for yours in straight deal,
no cash involved. This is my final
word"
"Alva Bradley, Cleveland Indians,
New Orleans: How about sending me
Bob Peller and cash for Joe Krakaus-
kas? Would not do this for any one
but you"
Branch Hickey, ST. Louis Cardinals,
st. Petersburg, Fla: Pending delivery
of Joe MedWick, on whom I have prior
claim. will accept $4,000 week
indemnity payments. Let's keep this
out of court"
Great Offer to Mack.
Connie Mack, Philadelphia Ath-
letics, Birmingham. Ala: Will trade
you ace st-ball-thrower-out, Presi-
dent F. D. Roosevelt, for three out
fielders and cash. Roosevelt arm guar
anteed fine condition, anxious to leave
Washington for larger city. better op-
portunities. Advise grab this offer
Immediately, as six rival clubs are
bidding"
There is hypnotic swing about
Griff's kilograms. No matter how
early they rise in the morning, the
other owners are likely to fall under
the spell of the Old Fox before the
day is over
Witness the case of j. Louis Com
tskey of the Chicago White Sox, who
started for bed one evening to find
that he no longer owned a first base

sophically, lit might have been worse
But do not open any more kilograms.
They might be from Griffith
Has Way With HoIdouts.
That, according to unimpeachable
sources, is the story of the Bonura-
Kuhel trade, which gives the Ma
tionals the right-handed slugger they
needed so badly.
In further tribute to Mr. Griffith it
should be pointed out that Bonura, a
chronic holdout accepted Griff,s con-
tract 20 minutes after the deal was
made.
Grif has way with holdouts.
Goose Goslin. demanding a $4,000
raise. was once persuaded in half an
hours time to sign at last years figure
And Grif made me feel like I was
robbing him to take it," recalls the
Goose.
Goslin is around the Washington
camp now. looking for a job. He
might land it. The Nationals can use
help. Bonura represents all the i'm
provement in club which finished
sixth last season-Bonura and the
full-time presence of the Ferrell boys,
Rick and Wesley, who may or may
not hustle for Washington.
But do not sell the Nationals short.
As long as Mr.. Griffith can lift a
telegram blank his team is in the
running.

the three 15-minute period game COM

OF colleges, Bill Reinhart of G. w. was
IN Chicago today to propose such a
change at the national meeting of
basket ball coaches.
AS tutor of the Heurich Brewers
who play the three-period game in
professional games, Reinhart believes
1t has its advantages over the division
OF the games into two halves. Rein

the three-second rule and ask for an
extension of the court by 2 feet under

BRISTOL RESORT
Worlds Greatest Swing Drummer Heads Own Or.
chestra on Nation Tour | Gene Krupa, the worlds greatest swing drummer, opens the fall sea- son ct the Lake Compounce ball- room in Bristol this coming Sunday night The latest of the outstand- ing instrumentalists to graduate to the maestro ranks, Gene is probably the only baton-Wielder whose band was on established success before 1t was organized.
When newspapers and music trade publications printed the news that he had resigned from Benny doodmans band to head his own swing aggregation, Krupa was del. uged with offers to make radio, the. ater, ballroom and recording en- agreements.
Although this very announcement established him as e contender for swing band honors, he decided then and there that his combination would be outstanding in every re- spect. The first step was organiz- ing the band. Gene left on trips to the important swing centers of young musicians. Besides having America, auditioning thousands of talent Krupa insisted that only those who played for the love of playing would be engaged-an im- portant factor in grouping e suc- cessful swing band
Gene Krupa is young, handsomely Latin in appearance and a natural born snowman. His freak way of incorporating the famous gestures which he now uses was accidental, but the public found amusement in Krupa's antics, and his colroful way of playing drums rapidly made him the No. l idol of the "Jitterbugs."
Lake Compounce will continue to feature the Krakowska orchestra on Thursday nights, the Hal Mcintyre orchestra on Saturdays and name attractions on Sundays. Roller 1 skating is scheduled for Wednesday and Saturday nights with the Hal Mcintyre orchestra playing on We'd nesday. Guy Lombardo and his Royal Canadians make their first New England appearance at Lake Compounce Sunday, September 18th. |

grounded in immutable laws of nature,
there are traditions too deeply rooted
in cherished associations with the spa
cious past lightly to be cast aside for
customs sprung from the shallow soil
of the frivolous times. Many persons,
therefore, will rejoice that DIR. J. ,.
Bar Zier, leading colored physician OF
New Orleans, has had the courage to
raise the standard of revolt against a
repellant practice now commonly fol-
lowed at public dinners and even at
tables in iconoclastic private homes.
1t is, of course, the practice of serving
half fried chicken on each diners plate
with all the joints intact. To what
end? No butchers cleaver is given to
the unhappy guest so that he may
separate the carcass into its component
parts. To add to his embarrassment,
his undissected portion, with its rub
berized couplings, is half submerged in
thick gravy of the kind properly ap-
pertaining to fried chicken. How, then,
is the person so served to perform the
major operation expected of him, with
the inadequate tools provided, without
showering his nearest fellow diners
with gobs of gravy? Are diners men
or mice? Will they continue patient
ly to endure such studied affronts
merely because these are camoflauged
as displays of hospitality? DIR. Bar
Zier responds with ringing mol"
His cry is, Get Back to the Old
Southern Style!" 1t is rallying cry
raised in holy cause. All patriots
know that true Southern fried chicken,
when served in the orthodox Mary
land style, comes to the table fully
disjointed, each piece coated uniformly
with delicious golden brown crust
that crunches ravishingly between the
teeth. Thus the rapturous party of the
first part is free to choose from a
heaped up platter exactly the piece or
pieces that he prefers.
Your refractory half chicken COM
pe1s you laborously to have commerce
with both white and dark meat, where
as the chances are that you despise one
or the other and that you have pas
sionate longing for second helping of
your favorite part of the fowl. Do
you get it? You do not. You must
continue to eat what is placed before
you or go without.
P. S. This column this week is ded-
icated to Miss Nellie Dodson, who
leaves in few days to become a feat
ure writer with the Afro-American,
one of the largest colored weeklies at
Baltimore, Maryland, where chicken is
plentiful. Well, Nellie, the staff joins
me in wishing you the best of luck
in your new position. Well, Nellie,
remember when you and l and Cecil
E. Newman, now publisher of two
publications of his own, were on the
Herald together? Well, Nellie, / am
the only one left and I'll see you at

Gray Hair
Is Asset
Carefully Select
Costume COlOrs
And Make.Up. | By ELSIE PIERCE. | A CCORDING to the head Of Fifth
avenue beauty salon, women with
courage should "let your hair grow
gray, If there's enough of it." I pre-
sumo she means two things-enough
hair and enough gray.
During a fashion and beauty show
she removed her hat to show her own
hair, which she has allowed to grow
gray in the last two years (until then
she had the stray gray streaks tiuted.
A more gorgeous, glamorous head of
gray hair I have never seen.
It isn't pure white, but more a
pepper and salt, steely mixture. 1t is
kept scrupulously clean, silky, shiny
and arranged in the height of fashion.
In keeping with the dignity of gray
hair the arrangement is a gracious,
mature coiffure, deeply swirled in the
back, swept up and curled softly on
the side. deep, wide wave on top. 1t
forms soft, charming frame for the
face.
Many mothers whose conscience dc
tates "let II grow gray, graciously' are
Influenced by others. Their own chill
dren. surprising as it may seem, don't
mind their getting gray. To them
mother is still charming and young,
the gray is no sign of age. This is
particularly true If the skin Is clear
and the contour fairly firm. 1t is true,
too, if the hair is faultlessly groomed.
And 1t is true if there is enough Of
the gray-not Just streak here ana
there.
Even tint manufacturers realize that
more and more smart women are per-
mitting their hair to gray. They
realize that the charm Of maturity,
the dignity Of maturity are expressed
in well-kept gray hair, that with 1t
comes a certain distinction. What
they have done is to create a special
rinse, wash, tint or accent shampoo to
keep the gray sans yellow streaks.
With the proper washing it keeps its
shining steel-like color or its blue
whiteness. |

Lace models from outstanding Paris

combined to usher in the merry month
OF May in an extremely romantic and
fascinating mood. showing anew the
versatility and f1attery Of this favorite
fabric for the summer season.
Lace for special luncheons and tea
dates, lace for the suit blouse, lacy

and most feminine of all, the hutter

all exhibited in their most lovely
interpretations.
Paris imports Of lace led the prom

Lucien Lelong, and Marcelle Dormoy.

from them has grown a style which
we know as Chippendale. If his Gus
toners did not like the drawings in
the book, he told them proudly that
the designs were as nothing unless
they were executed by Thomas Chip
pendale. And this was true; in
terpreted by him they had perfect pro-
portion combined with excellent work.
manship and fine decoration. He
picked up ideas here, there and every
where, from the Dutch, the French
and the Chinese, fused them with his
own ability and personality to make
them forever Chippendale.
MAHOGANY and Chippendale rose
to fame together Until 1928
walnut was the fashionable wood for
fine furniture in France and Eng
land. At that time mahogany began
to come in from Cuba and San Do
mingo. and it was discovered that it
was finer in texture. harder in grain
and as easily worked as walnut. Just
as Chippendale was becoming FASH
ionable mahogany came into general
use and his great ability as a wood
carver had perfect medium. He
was famous for his fretted and pierced
panels, his fine carved finals and pedi-
ments. Gliding and Japanning be-
came popular with the fashion for
Chinese and Japanese decoration, and
he tried his hand at that.
1t would be impossible for me to
list the various designs which have
survived the years. In the libraries
and museums are many fine examples
in case you wish to familiarize your
self with all the designs. In general
Chippendale side chairs have the
curved cabriole leg, with decoration
on the knee and the ball and claw
foot. Or the leg may be straight,
perfectly plain or with the fretwork
running up the leg and the cut-out
bracket after the Chinese. The seat
Is wide, giving a gracious appearance,
and upholstered. Backs may be deli
cate and intricately designed like the
ribbon back. or with solid carved
pattern or with three Stats
The overstuffed armchairs are per-
feet examples Of designing and COM
forts and very quickly impress on
one their own distinctive lines.
Sofas were very popular in this
country and were usually made with
the straight leg, rolling arms and a
beautifully designed back. The shape
Of the arms and back were carved out
of solid wood and then padded so that
they never lost their shape. They
are as perfect today as when they
were made.
There is a great deal of difference
between gracious, flowing lines and
over-plump curves! Be sure that your
Gabrielle leg is not bulbous and that
the ball and claw foot is not too large
or too small for the weight above it.
Your sofa should have an ample,
comfortable look, but not be too opu-
lent or chunky. All the Chippendale
designs were much modified and SIM
plif1ed in the colonies. Large plain
surfaces were enhanced by small areas
of fine decoration, instead Of the very
ornate pieces so admired abroad.
Small tables were Of the three
legged, pie-crust variety, with carving
on the legs and around the table edge.
They also were made with a carved
and pierced gallery top and four very
slender legs. Occasionally the cluster
leg. which is four slender legs, joined
at intervals by band, was used with
a gallery top. These gave delightful
effect Of slenderness and fragility,

The name of "ChippendaIe" is
known to all of us; there was good
furniture before his day, and fine fur
niture after it, but as there Is great
interest in the Georgian era and a
new fashion for furnishings of the
18th century we will jump into the
very middle of things with the fur
niture which is known as after the
manner of Chippendale.
; Thomas Chippendale was born in
17l8 in a little Yorkshire village in
England. His father was joiner and
his mother the daughter of a mason.
He grew up to study with his father
and surpass him at his own trade.
Thomas came to London in 1748 and
set up shop as cabinet and chair
maker. Under the direction of Robert
Adam he had worked on the estates
of several of the influential young
.noblemen of the day. With their sup
port, both financial and personal, the
young Thomas Chippendale enjoyed
immediate and amazing popularity
and success in London.
Within six years he had married,
and was about to publish a book,
which he called The Gentleman and
Cabinetmakers' Director" which con-
tanned nearly 200 drawings, all bear
ing Chippendales name, and was such
a success that in l755 a second edi-
ton was printed and in 1862 third.
Though Chippendale made very little
furniture from this book 1t was re-
sponsible for the widespread fame of
his name
In 1855 he had a f1ourishing factory,
for We note that his shop was de-
stroyed by fire and % carpenters
chests were burned. These chests
would have been in the possession only
OF high-class workers. In addition to
these artisans there would have been
numerous apprentices and underlings
who did small work. He must have
been we'll liked and respected, as we
find his name as member of the
Society of Arts" along with Sir
Joshua Reynolds, David Garrick, DR..
johnson and other important men of
the day.
HIS book, which then, as now. was
called "The Director" was sold
in the Colonies, and chairmakers in
Philadelphia and New York had ref
erence to it. AS the years have gone
on many interesting things have come
to light about this book. In the first
place, none of the drawings in the
book are actually working drawings.
No piece of furniture made from these
plans would stay together or even stand,
as the sketches were evidently made
by some one who knew nothing about
the practical side of furniture making.
How could man who was the finest
chairmaker the world has ever known
have made drawings that would not
work? We know that Chippendale
worked almost entirely from the de-
signs Of Robert Adam and that he
admitted that he had made only one
set of chairs from a drawing in the
Director that had been satisfactory
Why did he go to the expense of pre-
pairing the plates for this portfolio
when engarvings in those days were a
costly luxury? Were there press agents
as long ago as that?
In 1919 the Metropolitan Museum
bought a collection of sketches in
leather cover that had been purchased
for moderate sum at a sale in Eng
land. After some research they turned
out to be the original drawings from
which ITO of the plates were engraved
for the Director" This brought to
light the fact that not less than six
different persons had made the draw
ings. 1t would seem that Mr. Chippen-
dale had collected all available designs
in use in the cabinetmakers' shops
at the time, compiled them in a port
folio and preserved them for posterity
In his book. |

Answer.-Personality will take you

that opens shut doors to you, that
assures you Of q welcome, that makes
friends for you, that pushes your for
tune.
Girls always think that the best luck
they can have is good looks. and they
spend their time and effort in trying
to improve their personal appearance;
but in reality personality Is twice as
good bet as beauty is, and If they
would make half as much effort to
develop individuality and charm as
they do to putting finger wave in
their hair, they would get far better
results.
Now, Of course, in its higher brack-
cts personality is something that comes
by nature. 1t is made up in part of
what we call personal magnetism, that
undefinable quality that attracts us
to people and that makes them seem
different and interesting. Lucky are
those who possess this priceless attri-
butte, but even if we are not SO fortu-
nate as to be so endowed. we can
cultivate very good quality Of syn
thetic personality If we are willing to
take the trouble, and If we are wise
enough to begin to do so when we are
young.
THE first bit of advice that would
give to you then is to be yourself
The temptation to all young girls Is to
copycat some other girl who is popu-
lar. They ape her methods and
tricks. They see girl who is loud
and blatant but who has dates to burn,
so they begin screaming at the top Of
their voices. though they be of the
shy. demure, quiet type. Or they see
a tiny girl who curls up like kitten
on sofa and looks cute. and forth
with they begin sitting on their feet
and acting cunning. though they are
big girls who look like performing ele-
plants when they try 1t.
Don't make this mistake Stick to
your own type and develop that. No
imitation is as good as the real thing
All of us, and especially men, are at
tracted by sincerity So make the most
Of what you are yourself and don't
pattern yourself after any one else.
Then cultivate good manners, which
are rare enough in these days to be q
novelty. Be courteous and consider
ate. Answer letters Write notes Of
thanks. Show appreciation of atten-
tions that people have shown you. Go
out of your way to try to make your
self agreeable to all you meet. That
will be bread cast upon the waters that
will come back to you in angels food,
and you will soon get reputation OF
being that mice little Jones girl" to
whom everybody wants to give a
hand up.
Learn how to make the most Of
whatever looks the Lord gave you No
girl need be as ugly as Nature made
her in these days of plastic surgeons
and beauty shops and stylists. If you
have bad teeth. get them Strengthened.
II you have an ugly nose, have 1t
shaped to your hearts desire Don't
buy hat or gown just because 1t is
the newest thing. Get some one who
has made a profession Of clothes to
tell you what to wear 50 as to bring
out your best points, and how to dc
your hair.
Take up the study Of sports in seri-
Gus way. Learn how to play a good
game of bridge and to be fine dancer
They are two accomplishments that
are just as necessary to girl now as
it Is to know how to read. You will
never sit in dark corner sucking
your thumb if you can float over a
ballroom floor like thistledown or your
contract is beyond criticism The more

Carolina can set up and man such a net
in case of emergency.
For this reason it is of interest to review
briefly some of the story of the Fort Bragg
exercises, which will come to a close this
week with competitive firing by the three
anti-aircraft regiments having batteries in
the field there
The North Carolina warning net-or any
other anti-aircraft warning net-has two
primary purposes it was explained by Brig.
Gen. Fulton @ c. Gardner who COM
manded the joint air-ground defenses of
Fort Bragg. The first is to enable friendly
pursuit aviation to make interception with
the attacking enemy bombardment avia-
ton; after all, the chief defense against
aerial bombardment is in the air before
the bombers can reach their target, not
in shooting them down from the ground
after they get there. The second is to dis
seminate information to civilian and mill
tary activities likely to be subject to aerial
bombardment so they can protect them
selves by such means as the black-out at
night or by taking shelter, if nothing more,
during the day.
I'VE have problems in setting up warn
ing net that no other country has had to
face" Gen. Gardner said. They must be
approached in purely American fashion.
Our institutions and customs differ so
greatly from those of European countries
that We cannot work in the same way.
Voluntary Services.
ITO be effective at all warning net
must be so extensive as to prohibit the
use of military personnel. AS these exer-
cises have demonstrated, We must have
a net extending at least $50 to 200 miles
inland from the coast if We are to be
supplied with sufficient warning to do any
good. The problem must be solved by use
of civilian observers, and under our form
of government they must give their services
voluntarily"
Bombardment airplanes today travel at
such high speeds-up to 240 miles per
hour in the case of the giant four-engined
Boeing Bit flying fortresses-that pursuit
airplanes cannot overhaul them in short
race. This means that the pursuit must
operate as nterceptors, not really as pur-
suit at all, Gen. Gardner pointed out. To
function as interceptors the pursuit officers
must have the benefit of frequent and
constant observation. Under the North
Carolina plan which involved the dividing
of the State into squares measuring miles
in each direction, with an observation post
in each square, reports on the movements
of the invading bombardment airplanes
were coming into defense headquarters
every 2l2 to minutes on the movements OF
each plane or formation. Previous warm
ing net exercises had involved the setting
up of observation posts 8 miles apart on
circles so, 100 and $50 miles outside the
defense center This worked well except
that it failed to provide the element of
constant observation necessary to deter
mine whether the on-coming airplanes held
to straight course.
Under the North Carolina system, even
small changes of course were readily de-
tected and the pursuit commanders were
given constant accurate information. The
result was that, with 33 attackers in the air,
in widely separated flights and at varying
attitudes, the pursuit commander reported
that his airplanes had made no less than
81 interceptions on the first exercise-re-
garded as atremarkable record.
$50 Reports Received.
During the period of less than two hours
from the time the first enemy" reconnais-
sance airplane crossed the coastline until
the attack on Fort Bragg had been fully
developed no less than $50 reports were re-
ceivad from the observers. Despite the fact
that some of the observers we're then using
long-distance telephones for the first time,
their reports reached the defense headquar-
ters; after being relayed through key col
lection points, in from three to eight min
utes after the observations were made.
There had been considerable conjecture
as to whether an unframed civilian could
give the information which would be re-
quired for defense purposes" Gen. Gardner
said. Some people insisted that to be of
value reports must show types, numbers,
altitude and other technical facts concern
ing the attacking airplanes. These tests,
however, show that unframed observers can
give us 95 per cent of the information We
need-that is, are there many airplanes or
few and are they high or low? Given these
facts, frequently and constantly, our trained
personnel can apply the necessary deduc-
tions as to types of airplanes and the nature
Of the coming attack" |

4_1938-10-16_p35_sn83045462_00280601858_1938101601_0607 | Evening star. | 01 | 1938-10-16 | p35 | Gen Gardner characterized the success
Of the North Carolina net as "a high tribute
to the volunteer citizens" who manned the
observation posts. He said he had not heard
of single case in which citizen who had
been approached with view to service in
the net had refused to cooperate.
The response of these people and the
success of their efforts far exceeded our
expecta tions," the general said.
Wide Range of Courses.
On the first exercise involving the net,
Gen. Gardner admitted the bombardment
commanders generally flew at low attitudes
and over wide range of courses, so that
the volunteers might have something to see
or hear. One flight, however, came in at
extremely high altitude, and it was this one
which constituted the first real test of the
net
1T made not the slightest difference
in the operation Of the net" Gen. Gardner
said. These unframed observers picked
up the airplanes at their highest altitude
just as unfailingly as at lower levels So
far as We can determine, every formation
was detected. thought it is possible some
single airplanes may have gotten through
all or part of the net undetected With
SO many involved, this is a point difficult
to determine, and really of little conse-
quence."
Gen. Gardner said that even though the
Army is considering plans for setting up
warning nets along the Atlantic and Pacific
coasts, he did not think the United States
need ever anticipate a serious attack from
carrier-borne airplanes.
Il think that carrier borne bombers
would be successful in their first attack"
he said. Il don't see how We could stop
all Of them. But we are certain that if
they did attack from carriers at sea our
General Headquarters Air Force would be
given sufficient warning to follow them
back and destroy airplanes and perhaps
carriers. The risk would be so certain and
so great that I think we need MT fear
such an attack from ships"
Increases Difficulties.
Gen. Gardner admitted however, that
the possibility of enemy aircraft operations
from nearby islands must be considered as
part of any sound defense plans.
The "black-out," consisting of the ex-
tinguishing or muff1ing of all artificial
lights does not afford immunity to city
from aerial bombardment, Gen. Gardner
pointed out 1t does, however, materially
increase the difficulties of the enemy
bombers in locating their targets and les
sens the precision of their bombing.
One of the greatest problems in connec-
tion with defense against aerial lombard
ment, Gen. Gardner said, is the co-ordina-
ton of friendly pursuit and anti aircraft
defense operations. Pursuit cannot be used
at night to intercept enemy bombers unless
the bombers can be Illuminated by search
lights. The only anti-aircraft searchlights
now possessed by the Army are those of
the Coast Artillery anti-aircraft regiments
and they are an integral part of the gun
batteries needed to illuminate hostile air.
craft for gunnery purposes and normally
are posted so as best to serve only the
gun batteries. Obviously. friendly pursuit
and anti-aircraft gunners cannot use the
lights at the same time. In fact, as has
been demonstrated again quite clearly dur
ing these exercises, it is virtually impossible
to operate pursuit defensively in the i'm
mediate area of heavy anti-aircraft ground
defenses without mutual interference which
in case of actual warfare would be deadly.
The use of pursuit airplanes against
enemy aircraft will continue to be manda-
tory, regardless of the size or completeness
of ground anti-aircraft installations, in
the opinion of Army leaders. To make
pursuit operations effective at night, there
FORE it is possible this country also may
have to resort to the use of portable search
lights outside the areas defended by anti
aircraft guns.
As efficiency of anti-aircraft equipment
increases, the operating attitudes of bonn
bardment aviation also must increase If
they are to be used with any hope OF
success against closely defended areas
Today bombardment airplanes are operat-
ing regularly and successfully at attitudes
of 10000 to $4,000 feet, with greater ac-
curacy than was obtained at 1000 feet
during the World War. In the course Of
one attack at Bragg, nine Bit flying
fortresses came over the target at an alti-
tude of $4,000 feet and were intercepted
at this great altitude by defensive pursuit
aircraft. It was believed to be the highest

maneuUerS last week.
Down in the sand hills of the Army's
largest artillery post Fort Bragg NJ c., Of
fcers and men of two inherently opposed
but paradoxically interlocking services, air.
craft and anti-aircraft, are seeking the
answer to questions which may change the
whole future trend of our coastal defense
system.
With the cooperation of the civil pop
ulation of considerably more than one
quarter of the entire area of North Caro-
lima, the Army during the past week has
been attempting to determine through drs-
matte, widespread ground and air exercises
whether the European and Asiatic systems
of defense against aerial bombardment can
be applied in the United States.
Although the results of their work have
not yet been analyzed, officers of the two
arms are pretty generally agreed that this
country, for psychological, sociological and
geographical reasons, must devise its own
air defense methods. These methods have
been roughed out during the exercises now
nearing their close. They involve some of
the salient features of the European sy5-
tenn, such as the universal aircraft warm
ing net manned by civilians and the black
out" Unlike the European system. how
ever, operation of the net and the black
out cannot be compulsory, but must be
voluntary effort on the part of the civil
ian population.
Complete Cooperation.
That such voluntary cooperation can be
obtained from a mixed civil population ap-
parently has been determined to the COM
plete satisfaction of all concerned by the
North Carolina maneuvers Rarely in peace
times has any military organization mad
such cordial and complete cooperation
from a large cross-section of the popula-
ton as have the Coast Artillery and Air
Corps from the people of Eastern North
Carolina during the last week.
AS a result of this experience Army Of
ficers connected with the exercises are sat-
isfed that a thoroughly efficient anti-air-
craft warning net can be established along
the coasts of the United States with the
voluntary aid of civilian personnel-even
entirely unframed civilians.
While the net can be set up, the matter
of the actual defense behind the net
constitutes a tremendous problem. Modern
anti aircraft guns and methods of employ
ment represent great advances over World
War methods. Exhaustive tests, coupled
with actual combat experience in Spain
and China, lead Army officers to believe
that bombardment airplanes, up to attitudes
OF 10000 feet, must pay dearly for venturlng
into areas adequately protected with anti
aircraft artillery. They do not believe
that a bomber can survive more than 80
seconds of fire from four-gun battery
or so Shells Umpiring of Air Corps
maneuvers is based upon this assumption,
which, in turn, is based upon actual combat
experience in Spain as well as upon years
of tow target firing.
Only Six Such Regiments.
Although there are only six skeletonized
anti aircraft regiments in the United States
today-four of them now at Fort Bragg
the War Department now has Works
Progress Administration funds for the pur-
chase of 300 anti-aircraft guns of the same
type it has been employing at Fort Bragg.
BY concentrating all the anti-aircraft regi-
ments east of the Rockies, it was able
to set up six batteries of four guns each
at Bragg, just enough for the adequate
protection of single large airdrome.
The Fort Bragg exercises involved the
setting up of warning net and ground
defenses in relatively sparsely populated,
non-industrial section of the country. For
such an area they worked admirably.
The defense of vital industrial, busi-
ness and transportation center, such as
Philadelphia, however, becomes vastly more
complicated The Army now has tentative
plans for the setting up of warning net
and air-ground defenses for the conducting
of exercises along the lines of the Fort
Braggs show, probably at Philadelphia,
within the next few months.
Upon the basis of these two exercises,
it is not unlikely that the Army will under
take the preliminary details of setting up
combined civil-military warning nets for
the protection of vital areas of the Atlantic,
Pacific and Gulf coasts.
It is a little difficult for the layman to
comprehend the vast amount OF prepara-
ton which must 60 into the development
of such a net 1t also is little bewilder-
ing to find just how rapidly an aroused.
