In New York
BY GEORGE ROSS

New York, June 28 - Foreboding bulletins now are flashed from the London manse of the Countess Haugwitz-Reventlow and marital discord is in the wind while Bar i bara of the Five and Ten fears for the safety of her child. And that by contrast, makes apt the obser- vation that back here, in New York an equally famous heiress, namely Doris Duke Cromwell, is leading a quiet life with her husband, sans bodyguards and conspicuous publi- city.
 In fact, the Cromwells get around quite bit when they are stopping over in Gotham. And they have worked out a simple strategy that avoids much of the clamor which heralds their equals in the moneyeo set. They merely don't make any noise about their going and con- ing, which is just as well for all those concerned and those who are not.
 The other night, the sleek Dor is and her academic mate - he who writes literary panacaes to end the economic crisis were over to the Marine Roof on the Hotel Bossert in Brooklyn. They didn't tell anyone about it but the headwaiter. They made no reservations in advance; they took pot-luck on an advantage ous table.
 And had not an observing press agent been around, no one would have been the wiser for their call.
 AS 1t was, the press agent is sensitive fellow about folks priv acy. He only told us.
 It seems that the CromWells also can take it, when it is pub licly dished out. On another re- cent night, Doris Duke and her husband attended the "l8' Club where zany Jack White, without respect toward rank and wealth mercilessly heckles the custom CTS. In gathering of Broad wayites, racing touts, socialites and nondescript night owls, the Cromwells sat there and laughed along heartily while they were the butts of the jest.
 Sir Joe
 Nod that the brotherly clowns Willie and Eugene Howard, have gone back to cafe work, buster times are looming for one Sir Joseph Ginzbergh (dont forget the h al the end of my nameD A vivid per sonality is Sir Joseph who is as in- dispensable to Willie as Beetle ane Bottle are to Phil Baker, Parkyar. karkus is to Eddie Cantor, malac. ca cane is to Lou Holtz, and Charlie Mccarthy, Sir Joseph is court jester valet and major domo to Willie. A he styles himself, he is Sir Joseph Ginzbergh, King of Radio, Tele' vision, Vitagraph, Champion o1 Technicolor, Stage Screen and Pre-. sentations, And he feels humiliatee with any lesser billing.
 Anyway, now that Willie How ard commutes from his Great Necl home for work, the routine is this evrey morning, Sir Joseph gets int an old model tuxedo bedecked witt medals, shoes that are wildly mon ogrammed, tips top hat jauntil. at rakish angle of the head, slip a cane over his arm and accompan les Willie to the Great Neck station where the commuters are used t' him and call him Sir Joe. Then h' goes back to the Howard household where he is in full charge of thu menagerie, consisting of brood O pekingese, three parrots, pedigreet cats and a baby leopard. Sir Josepl also tends the garden, though h. has an aristocratic aversion to usini the hose.

Those who attempt to deduce the future population of an industrial community by it's rate of growth in any ten-year period are likely to trip themselves up on serious errors. The population of Connecticut cities from 1756 to 193O published in the Con- necticut State Manual, shows re- peated instances of such errors.

CHECK PRIZE

That Produced by W. H.
Lance Weighs Over 100
Bushels Per Acre

The first prize corn checked in
the annual Henderson, -Transyl-
vania corn growing contest was
weighed at more than 100 bushels
per acre in spite of an unfavor-
able growing season, G. D. White,
county farm agent, reported to-
day.
The corn was checked at the
farm of w. H. Lance, in the Mills
River section. Mr.. Lance's corn
checked at 102 bushels and 40
pounds, while that of his grand
son, Reid Lance. vocational stu
dent at Mills River school, check
ed at 113 bushels per acre.
Mr.. White reported that there
were many ears of corn on the
stalks, but that it lacked weight.
He attributed this to an unfavor-
able growing season, the lack OF
rain during the growing period,
and stormy weather during the
summer, which flattened much OF
the corn to the ground.
The Henderson county commit
tee will 90 to Transylvania coun-
ty this afternoon to check yields
there, and additional checking will
be done here next week.
