Fr. Cunningham Says Diomede Is. Short of Supplies

Father Thomas Cunningham s. J., arrived in Nome, Saturday afternoon from Little Diomede Island, via plane piloted by Jack Hermann.
 The Catholic Priest, who has been in residence on Uncle Sam s farthest northwest possession, made hurry-up trip to Nome to ob.a.n provisions and ammuni- tion for the ninety or more Dio- mede Islanders who spend the winter on the island.
 He reported everyone well and healthy, including the govern ment teachers Mir. and Mrs. Brouduss. The winter has been an extremely severe one, only a few days ago, the thermometer registering beloW-zero weather. Storms and cold weather have made their lot a hardship this past winter. Hunting has been fairly good he reported.
 The next trip of the plane will bring back to Nome several Dio- meders who annually come to Nome for employment in the min ing fields.
 Several visits have been made by the Eskimos to Big Diomede Island this winter, where five So viet Eskimo families reside. They are also reported to be in good health. No Soviet officer is in attendance on the island during the winter, but his arrival is ex pected the early part of June.
 It is recalled that last year, Father Cunningham very narrow ly escaped capture by Soviet official on the Big Diomede when he stopped at the island with an American hunting party. Only polished courtesy and much explanation and possibly a good bluff" prevented his arrest, and allowed his escape back to Am erican soil.
 Father Cunningham is return ing to the Little Diomede Island, which lies in the Bering Straits, as soon as possible, where he will remain until the summer break up. Ice movements in the Straits have been noticeable during the past week, he reported.

The Civic club once sponsored the
placing of public horse trough. Later
it was changed to a drinking fountain.
Maybe it, or the town council, or the
Rotary club, of the Knights of Buck
wheat could sponsor the project. Or
maybe the WPA, since they sponsor
most anything anyone asks them to.
A plan such as this ought to elimi-
nate many objections Of having buck
wheat cakes. Give this a try and if
the cakes still stick to the griddle this
time try throwing the wife out the
window, and give the batter good
beating.
If that doesn't work, you'd better

Birthday Dinner For Jonas GlOtfelty

as they all apparently belonged to the
Amalgamated Society for the Sup
preston of heavy laden stomachs.
A former resident of the buskwheat
country wrote last year, "When 1 was
a youngster buckwheat pancakes were
a regular fare from the time we put
on red flannel underwear until the
time we took it off. But in all the
years since l went away from homo
buckwheat cakes have been too infre-
quently a part of my fare"
Judging from other remarks it
seems that this determination against
buckwheat cakes is just a modern
affliction, just like those things women
call hats that they now wear on certain
parts of their heads. Or maybe the
women think that in order to have
buckwheat cakes they must wear red
flannel underwear, but such is not the
case as the boss editor has buck
wheat cakes a lot of times and never
yet have l even suspicioned that he red
fanneled his way through the winter
1t is just barely possible that the
modern determination against buck
wheat is because of the fact that once
one starts having buckwheat cakes
she must keep it up day after day SO
that the STARTER" remains fresh. A
daily supply of buckwheat cakes over
weeks or months period may be a
little hard on the stomach lining, I'll
admit, so l am suggesting remedy
this week that may revolutionize the
buckwheat industry, reduce divorce
hereabouts and bring estranged
couples back into each others arms.
What is needed in each section is a
community starter" where any tax
payer could come any evening and get
his starter fresh for the next morn
ing's cakes. Or better still have some

Buckwheat Cakes

Ever since about 1881 | have OBJ
served that number of women have a
peculiar attitude when it comes to
making buckwheat cakes. In spite of
the desires of the male portion of the
household, many housewives find ex-
cuses of some sort to drop cakes from
the menu and substitute eggs and
cereal. Occasionally, when the demand
gets persistent enough, there will be
cakes made from prepared mixture,
but mostly it takes the threat of
a good tanning" or the brandishing
of the axe, to get buckwheat cakes
made.
At a time like that the woman's
heart is never in her baking and the
results are usually as follows:
Cakes not brown.
Cakes too soggy.
Cakes stick to griddle.
Cakes too thick or too thin.
And as a result, the remaining bat

wife hides in the closet and the male
drives off to a friendly neighbours
home where the man in some myster
ious manner has got the upper hand
and has his buckWheat regular-and

however, are too few and far between.
There have been many remedies
suggested. Legislatures might pass
laws providing penalties for not max
ing them when the buckwheat is as
available as it is in Garrett county.
Jail sentences preferred over fines, as
a fine would eventually come from the
man of the house anyway.
Someone suggested last year that
chart be placed on the kitchen wall
and the housewife given a gold star
every morning there was buckwheat
cakes-with a smile. Another sug
gested having a fagpole on the house
and running up suitable banner each
time the cakes were Gust right, Bat
gold stars didn't have much attraction

woods prlze-wlnning play OF last
season. An unforgettable event is
what Mr. Gordon and his associates
are planning, and even If their plans
are in a formative stage at this
moment, the enthusiasm with which
they discuss the project is infectu-
Gus enough to convince one that
they really will make the opening
something memorable.
Part of the enthusiasm of the
R-K-O people, including Hardie
Meakin, who will be host at the
planned ceremonies, derives from
the fact that the movie version ad-
heres to the text of the enormously
successful stage play.
1T is no photograph, naturally, Of
what Washington saw with such en-
thusiasm about a year ago. says
Mr.. Gordon "The scope has been
broadened to meet the specifications
of the camera, but the spirit of the
film treatment is Identical"
More than that, the producer of
ABE Lincoln in Illinois" is too mod
est to say.
He turns, instead, to the subject
of how lucky the producing organi-
zation was in finding Ruth Gordon
to play the role of Mary Todd in the
screen version of the Sherwood
drama.
Think over the Hollywood ac-
tresses," says Mr.. Gordon, "and try
to name single one who could play
the role of Mary Todd"
After one has thought, and sug-
gested Bette Davis, who probably
would not bother with so subordin-
ate a part, Mr.. Gordon steps in, as
follows:
II couldn't either. And neither
could John Cromwell, the director.
We were singularly fortunate in
finding Miss Gordon available. She
is ideal for the role"
That Raymond Massey, Who Gre
ated the Lincoln portrait for the
stage version, was equally ideal for
the picture seemed of lesser impor-
tance to Mr.. Gordon. Mr.. Massey
was part of the original deal. Miss
Gordon the unlocked for answer to
producers prayer. Her availability
made him very happy, as did that of
Mary Howard tsister of Meredith of
Washington and once of the Follies).
THE picture" says Mr.. Gordon,
will make stars. Already both Miss
Gordon and Miss Howard are being
offered starring opportunities.
Neither of them had impressed
Hollywood before although both
have had several opportunities prev
iously. They are on their way to
the top now"
Next to ABE Lincoln in illinois,"
most important of the subjects
which Mr.. Gordon discussed was his
Very Warm for May" musical
which played the National several
weeks ago. AS in Washington, the
Kern -Hammerstein concoction re-
ceived mixed notices, but that was
not so discouraging to Mr.. Gordon
as it might have been. He had the
same experience with Roberta"
and THE Cat and the Fiddle"
That experience he fought out
until both eventually became the
successes for which they went down
in stage history. He intends to do
the same for his currently expensive
project, one which is picking up
momentum almost every day.
