Rome Uses Guides
 As Propagandists
But They Must Be Fascists, to Tell Tourists of
 All Glories

ROME, June 8-Only lips that are Fascist may tell American tourists of the glories of Rome, it has been decreed. Guides not only must be of sound political faith, but they also have to pass stiff examination to fix in their minds the order of the Caesars, who the naughty emperors were, what Caes- ar ran off with whose wife, and all the other interesting things that are poured into the ears Of tour ists
 The government insists on Fas- cist-trained guides, so that few paragraphs of propaganda on the glories of modern Rome will be mixed with the tourists diet. Not infrequently tourists have heard from guides how dissatisfied they are, how hard conditions are, and the like. Sometimes the guides were sincere, sometimes they were pumping up the prospective tip.

The art of casting is all in the wrist" says w. C. Golfer of Cleve- land who performs amazing tricks with rod and reel. This will be news to some of the boys who try to sling their arms across the lake, but let Expert Golfer continue:--
 There are three primary posi- tions after which reel position. thumbing of the spool, and practice about sum up the balance of what makes for good casting.
 One of the most common fN.lltS in casting is improper thumbing of the spool. The thumb should be in contact with the spool through out the cast, except for the instant the plug is started on it's way from the rod tip. The plug should pull against the line at all times.
 Tt is important that the handles of the reel face straight up. In other words the spool rides on the left bearing entirely. Getting distance in a cast is largely a mat teer of stronger snap of the wrist and releasing the plug at higher plane.
 unfortunately, most fishermen are determined to use their arms to get plug across the water Prop CT casting is wrist action only. The arms should play no part what ever.
 Just a flick of the wrist = no more The good angler can make a perfect cast with his arm strapped to his side, if the wrist is free to move.
 Proper casting does not tolerate the side-arm caster, because cor rect casting is an overhead action
 The side-swiper is a caster who because he swings his rod in wide horizontal circles, endangering inn portant parts of his companions and upsets boats and dispositions. "
 For years Golfer has demon strated the art of casting at sports mems shows and other outdoor ev- ents throughout the United States

 AS the case was called, the two children stood beside their father and Attorney Victor Frolich in front of the bench.
 We are here to ask mother to come back home" said Rose. Father and brother want her back as much as I do. Father had been angry because she played bridge so much-but he won't mind now"
 No, I don't think I want to come back" said Mrs. Vladow.
 Well. it looks like you are the one instead of your husband who doesn't want to live at home, '' said Judge Finnegan in denying her the temporary alimony.

Terry" McGovern came in for a timely" presentation from the Editor and the genial Terry declared that somebody who looked suspiciously like an editor would come in for a coronation" if he had something for ''crowning" purposes except the exceptional picture"
 1 "Goosebcrry King"
 R. E. Robertson, well known Ju- neau attorney was introduced as one, but refused the title, declar- ing he was the 'gooseberry king of Alaska.
