Are You a
Back-Seat Talker?

The back-seat driver is an ana
thema. He or she is an object of
universal ridicule. But how about
the legion of back seat takers and
whisperers who demoralize our class
meetings and are to be found in
every class? Not one of us, as an
individual, likes to try to recite
over buzz of private conversation.
Likewise can we appreciate the
teachers problem. But Mary Jane
has something she simply must tell
Mary Lou. Gracious mol 1t couldn't
wait Why, she would forget all
about it! Might not that be better
than hindering the whole class in
learning something of much more
value? Besides, should we be less
courteous in school than in our own
homes? We don't begin to talk on
another subject when a friend is
speaking to us. Nor Il hope) do we

FISHING IS POOR,
so ROOSEVELT.
SEEKS new SPOT
BY GEORGE DURNO

CHARLESTON, S. c., May 4
UN.S0. Pr esident Rooseveltfs
Caribbean fishing party dropped
anchor early this morning off Som
brero Island. northeast of Puerto
Rico, hopeful the days luck would
be better than that which has fol.
lowed them thus far.
After a rather disappointing
day in SANTANA Bay, San Domingo,
the President recalled recent assur-
ances Of Governor Blanton Win
ship that the fish were running
well off Puerto Rico and ordered
the cruiser Philadelphia to pro-
coed eastward to Sombrero Island.
Avoiding the beaten lanes, up to
last night only one freighter has
been sighted by the presidential
party. According to radioed word
from the Philadelphia, Mr.. Roose-
velt was enjoying his temporary
isolation to the utmost.
Through the small hours of this
morning the Philadelphia and the
conveying destroyer Tanning
cruised. along the northern coast
of Puerto Rico, about 30 miles off,
shore.
All aboard were hopeful there
would be an improvement in
weather conditions, which thus far
nave interfered seriously with
fishing.
Three hours were spent trolling
from small boats by the presiden-
tial party yesterday in Dominican
water but two 10-pound red snap
perS were the best of a poor haul
that six lines could make.
Secretary Marvin H. Mcintyre
Col. Edwin M. Watson, military
aide; Capt. Walter B. Woodson
naval aide; Capt. Ross T. Nc
Intire, White House physician,
and Rudolph Forester, veteran
White House executive officer
made up Mr.. Roosevelt's party.
Before leaving Santo Domingo
Mr.. Roosevelt exchanged radio
greetings with President Rafael
Trujillo but ''regretfully declined
invitations to come ashore for
formal honors.
