In New York
BY GEORGE ROSS

New York, Oct. 20 -- New York Notes: Though 1t has been held 6 dark secret by Metropolitan Opera officials, 1t seems that Enrico Caruso Jr., has been quietly studying voice. culture in European capitals during the past five years--and that he will make his musical debut in New York some time during the ap- preaching winter.
 Noel Coward left New York rather hurriedly for London and there are some who venture that the quick departure had greatly to do with the dramatist's forthcoming knightship.
 Katharine Cornell may aban- don that world tour she had been planning.
 Samuel Goldwyn has been in town almost @ week and not sin- gle Goldwynism has dropped from his lips that has reached print. Ex. cept this: At "2l", the other night, he was reputed to have exclaimed, T told the reporters in Chicago that I had nothing to say. And that I would not say 1t until I arrived in New York"
 Hot Stun
 Annually, the Broadway crowd moves away from the theater belt to the East Fifties when the Amer ican Music Hall, a former church, re-opens for highly irreverent high jinks. These are the premises where John Krimsky' Che will direct the entertainment at the New York Worlds Fair) stages old-fashioned meller- -drahma while the customers drink intoxicating beverages; and no doubt, the actors, if one cared to investigate, could be caught in the act of having Q snifter.
 This time the American Music Hall is showing "The Fireman's Flame" & saga of the rivalry be- tween two laze-eating fraternities in the Mauve Decade.
 This time as before-the plot is thick with Sweet-scented romance, suspense and chicanery, and for the price of a ticket customers are well come to applaud the hero and the heroine, hiss the villain and heckle everybody. One functionary the American Music Hall doesn't hire is & sergeant-at-arns. Letting-the- hair-down and making merry is g privilege of every paying guest.
 The opening nights at the Amer ican Music Hall also are the occa- sions when New York's reviewers, usually jealous of their collective dignity, may relax to the extent of converSing aimiably with their fellowmen, retiring to the bar at their pleasure and dancing tango rhumba or diSorderly gavotte after the show is over, in the oasis down. stairs. The management assumes no responsibility, however, for critical hangovers.
 The Things They Do!
 Paradoxes of the Big Town: Leo- pold Stokowski, the symphonic maestro, takes relaxation while list- ening to swing. Gene Tunney, the ex- heavyweight champ, is an accredited authority on Shakespeare. Alfred w. McCann, the food expert, always leaves it up to his wife to decide about the menu either at home or while dining out. Gene Fowler who earns fabulous sums writing for the movies, takes keen enjoyment writ- ing jocular poems for friends-and fer nothing.

THOSE QUAINT NEW ENGLANDERS
(Hartford Courant)

As the tourist season wanes, New England will lose that Self-con- |sciousness about it's way of talking That outlanders produce in its inc aabitants. With fall, the bulk of the strange license plates will have flown, and a New Epglander can say "lawr and awduh" without be. ing accused of either quaintness or afectation. No longer need we ex- plain when we say shore" that we mean "coaSt"-a matter that seems to have caused Q writer for the Cleveland Plain Dealer no little confusion. Again we can. trumpet through our noses without causing strangers to look for fog-banks. We can even talk of turnips without ex- plaining to the delegation from De- troit that we mean rutabagas. Ling uistic peace is about to descend on us.
 One gathers, from the various comments about New England ways of speech that have appeared in the papers of other parts, that visitors do not come to this region for any of the reasons that the various pub- licity agencies of the six states con- cerned talk about. Our climate may be all that 1t is cracked up to be the sea breezes as stimulating and the scenery as glorious as the pub- licity artists tell us it is. but the climate, the sea air and the scenery together apparently are not as at- tractive to visitors as is our lall- guage. Some think it's funny. One commentator found 1t reminiscent of England and our colonial ances- tors" and called it "a tonic to mid- western ears" Others have found that it grates painfully on the un. accustomed eardrum. But whether they like it or not, they all agree in listening for it.

Answers To Questions
By Frederick NG. Kerby

e. Do crocodilians reproduce from eggs?
 A. The eggs are elongated, white shining and have a thick, hard shell. The female either digs 8 hole in the sand bank where the eggs are deposited, then covers them with much care, or constructs a veritable nest, in the shape of a high mound. The eggs are laid near the bottom of the mound and the covering of heaped up sticks and decomposing vegetation soon gener- ates Q high temperature which hastens incubation.
 o. What are the colors of the University of South Carolina2 A. Garnet and black.
 c. What Federal office has au- thority to enforce compliance with the Robinson -Patman Act?
 A. The Federal Trade Commis. sion.

Selected Poem

EXCHANGE John Ritchey in the Christian Science Monitor The fish that in this silver pool, Speckled and 1.-the and beautiful Are hemmed within a changing wall Three sides of air, one waterfall Live sleepily with vast content Inside a world impermanent And we who stand here gazing down Inhabit substantial town Of stone and steel, securely wrought By mobile hands and cunning thought; But in this hour the sun has grown In fancy would exchange our own To dwell embodied in a dream Of silver pool and crystal stream.

This herd was to be the nucleus of Alaska's restored musk OK. But they didn't take to the land. Finally they were removed, after much labor, to the island of Nunivak, 50 miles off shore. Here the animals now reside and Uncle Sam keeps hoping that year by year the ani- mals are increasing their number, but as no real up-to-date survey is available, the officials can't lay claim to success in their latest experiment of preserving a true species of our native wild life.
