clothesline, and they grabbed the
rugs as they came running.
They had almost extinguished the

This taught me a good lesson,
and 1 hope other children will be

TOMMY HARMON'S popu-

sudden spurt. Judging by the

from the male representation.
one might say that he's just be-
ginning to hit his stride.
va see, Tommy's got a date
with a movie star. Anita Louise,
the attractive Hollywood lady
who will play opposite him in
his new picture, is coming 10
town Thursday and will stay
until Sunday as his guest.
That means he'll have all that
glamour on his hands over the

and Senior Prom. So you can
bet every guy who's ever had
a speaking acquaintance with
Tom has by now put in his bi
for substitute duty.
