Serge kosiuzko. Take nothing with
you. so that none suspect you of try

Not even my violin?"
"A man can get another violin, but
he cannot get another life
He went to the door and stood for
moment listening Then he opened the
door quickly He poked his head out,
peering this way and that. There was
no one. Only the distant click of type
writers - the long vista of the swept,
bare passage.
-Four persons are charterlng plane

Go with them. And take this, to help
you. He thrust some notes into Serge's
hand.
But how can repay you for this?"
Il do not know. Perhaps you will
get back to America, and one day l
shall be glad of your assistance Then
you can think Of me. Now go-Go
quickly"
There we're five of them in the plane
Like Serge. they took with them
nothing. There was young girl who
wept bitterly, parting from her father.
Hush. my little one Very soon l
shall join you" he comforted her, but
they knew he would never join her In
the plane Serge sat beside the girl,
trying to comfort her She hoped to
get post in England.
Il have friend there, who works
for an English lady. Perhaps also can
find work. And you, what will you do?"
Il am a musician, but l have not

not talk cleverly, but can play"
'Ladislas will talk for all of us. He
speaks English"
The tall boy with a poets face and
burning eyes nodded, smiling bravely.
He would talk for them all. He was a
scholar "It will need some talking,
since none of us has papers, he said.
Serge thought nothing of that at
the time. Below, the green island of
England, set like jewel in the blue
sea, was rising to meet them. Now the
cold clean air came blowing in through
the planes open door.
They hurried out to freedom, to
safety - only to find that it was not
freedom at all.
The young man, Ladislas. talked
and talked, but it got them nowhere.
1--WE cannot remain without papers,
without guarantees. They will send us
back. God help us, they will send us
back" he cried.
They stood in a despondent huddle
around the waiting liner. A little
crowd had gathered. A tall policeman
held Serge by the arm.
Serge said: Tell them l can find
plenty who will speak for me. am
Serge Kosiuzko, who plays the violin.
They will know me-"
Perhaps if Ladislas had been able to
tell them, someone might have known
the name. But it was no use because

~UPPosE we had been present
- nearly four hundred and fifty
~ years ago at a farewell banquet
given by Queen Isabella of Spain to
Christopher Columbus just before he
started on his journey to find new
route to India. The table would be
heaped with many kinds of meat and
fish and fowl, but few of the vegetables
that we have nowadays.
The most important gift that the
New World gave to European coun-
tries was neither gold nor silver but
great variety of food.
Queen Isabella wouldn't have been
able to order corn on the cob, or
golden yams, or green or lima beans,
or even tomatoes She couldn't have
had pumpkin pie for dessert, or pine
apples or chocolate or cocoa; and of

course no coffee And there couldn't
have been any cigars or cigarettes or
pipes. But what we would have missed
more than anything else would have
been potatoes. because the famous
Irish potatoes weren't known in
Europe until nearly one hundred years
after Columbus visited America.
Moreover, the Irish potato isn't
Irish and it isn't potato. 1t is really a
tomato, and like the tomato it is
member of the nightshade family. AL

could not speak for them any more
Tears ran down Serge's face and
into his little beard. Why had he ever
imagined he was of Importance in the
world? No one here knew anything of
him. They had come to land of
freedom. but that place also would
have none of them.
The policeman who had had Serge
by the arm let 60 of him to attend to
Ladislas 1t was then that Serge be-
came aware of the young man. He was
angry and oily and in overalls He
stood glarlng at Serge, He edged closer,
mutterlng harsh words which the lit
tie man could not understand. Serge
was hardly surprised. This was world
in which every hand was against him.
The young man edged closer. Now
he was between Serge and the police
man, elbowing him out of the crowd.
Hustling him. Suddenly Serge under
stood. The young man was telling him
to run for it, while he had the chance
There was goodness still, and friendli-
ness and a helping hand. Flinging his
arms round the angry young mans
neck, Serge kissed him on both cheeks
- and went.
He clambered through a hedge.
Workmen digging in the road paused
to look at him, but they did not seem
either interested or surprised. Appar-
emily that was hedge out of which
anything might come. They did not
even look after him as he ran down the
road. A few hundred feet farther on he
was passed by girl in motor car
She looked at him. painting along the
road, the tears running into his beard
She beckoned him to get in. Whether
she was friend or foe, he had no idea.
So Serge Kosiuzko stayed in England
as the handy man of his rescuer. No
one spoke his language, and there was
nothing else he could do If he made
himself known, perhaps they would
send him back to Poland, and then he
would be farther than ever from his
Rachel. One thing he knew, and that
was his constant comfort - Rachel
would wait for him. He would find her.
If he had had his violin, perhaps he
could have made people understand.
but he hadn't. Sometimes in the
kitchen he pretended to fiddle bit
with the shovel and poker. just to get
the feel of it. Perhaps one day his
chance of making someone understand
would come.
His skill about the Ledburys' house,
his unending good humour. stood him
in good stead now, and people thought
a lot of the omelettes Linda had
taught him to make as boy in the
far off Tatra. He worked hard, trying
to pick up English, but he had never
been clever at that sort of thing.

Ibsen Company To

Durham, Nov. 1.-THE distinguish
ed actress, Eva LIE Caffeine heads
the brilliant troupe which is to per-
form Henrik Ibsen's famous tragedy,
"Hedda Gabler," at Duke university
next Friday night. The performance
will mark the first appearance OF a

While they are highly regarded by
persons directly connected with the
stage, the plays Of 1bsen have not
attained a wide popular appeal. They
are practically all tragic, deep and

Deacons To
Meet Clemson
On Saturday

Wake Forest, Nov. 4.-One Of the
hardest games of the entire year is
ahead for the DeacOns Of Wake For
est next Saturday afternoon when
they meet Clemson's Tigers IN their
own backyard at Clemson, S. c., in
the Homecoming event for the Tiger
alumni.
While Clemson, ny virtue Of its
higher national rating, will probably
enter this game in a favored role,
there is no telling what may happen
when they actually lock horns. Last
year practically everybody picked
the Tigers to swamp Coach Peahead
Walkers Deacons, but the South
Carolinians were mighty lucky to
edge out a 10 win.
Maybe the elements were against
both ball clubs then, because the tilt
was played here on Gore Field in
torrential doWnpOur Of rain. But
there was no doubt about the super
ior power Of the Tigers then, even
though the Deacons did keep them
STAYED away from the goal line most
of the night, and came very close to
gaming U-U Tie.
The Tigers pulled one Of the trick
lest plays in their repertoire to get
in position for that lone touchdown.
Standing just about on his goal line,
Bob Bailey, Clemson quarterback,
dropped back to deep punt fOrma-
ton after his club had been penaliz-
cd Is yards, apparently set to kick
Instead of booting the pigskin, Bob
cleverly faxed a punt, and with Dea-
con linemen rushing him hard, he
flipped a short pass over their heads
to halfback Shad Bryant, who al
most got away for touchdown.
TONY Gallovich, Wake Forest half
hack. hauled him down from behind
after a So yard run in that mud. A
few plays later netted the necessary
victory margin.
Both clubs are probably improved
this year. Clemson lost TO thriller
to Tulane Tor its lone defeat, Win
ming over Presbyterian 1870, N. Z.
State 25-6, South Carolina 27-0, and
the Navy 1877. The Tigers clashed
with George Washington last night
Wake Forest is meeting Marshall
College in Huntington, w. Va, today
The Deacons have won over Elon
$40, South Carolina 1877, Miami
$50, N. c. State 800, Western
Maryland 600. Their two defeats
came at the hands Of Duke so and
North Carolina 1915.
The Tigers four wins against one
defeat this year may appear better
than Wakes five victories against
two losses, but those Deacons will
be out for something more than
moral victory next week. They won
what might be termed such triumph
in holding Duke to a 60 game and
they know their just dues don't come
this way. Regardless of the outcome
of today's game in Huntington, the
IDeacons have run up the storm warn
ing for the Tigers next Saturday.

But this record shouldn't be any

outplayed the Techs fOr the first
