Science Less Truthful
Than Poetry, Sovont Says

There is great deal more truth
in poetry than in science. DR.. William
Lyon Phelps, professor emeritus of
English at Yale University, yester-
day told students at Trinity College.
"A work of science he explained.
sis like time table-subject to
change without notice.
Great poets are three things. DR..
Phelps said. They are soothsayers
because they reveal the Utmost
truths of human nature; they are
clairvoyants because they read the
darkest secrets of human hearts"
and they are alchemists because they
turn ordinary elements into some
thing wonderful and splendid"

TOBACCO ROAD
 IS WELL LIKED
Presentation Here Last Night Pleases Audience;
 Good Cast in Show

Tobacco Road" came to Water. bury for three day stop and pleased an opening night audience at the strand yesterday. The play was well performed.
 John Barton as Jeeter Lester gave an interpretation Of poor Whit0 trash of Georgia such as even hls New York counterpart could hardly excel.
 As for the supporting cast, par- ticularly Sara Perry as Ada Lester and Maud Lambert as Sister BeS- sic Rice, even the seyerest critics could hardly ask for improvement. Unlike most road shows with ono or possibly two big name actors and c very weak supporting cast, last nights production surprised and de- lighted with teh excellence of the support John Barton got. f
 The story is . familiar one to most theater goerg by now, having been performed on the New York boards these past several years, yet many who saw 1t once will want to see it again. With very little excep- ton, the play follows the same pat- tern as portrayed in New York. Dude Lester does c great deal of ball bouncing against the house wall, Grandma Lester says nary 0 word, and MT. Barton, in what seemed to us c definite improve. ment over the old familiar routine, goes through his antics with admir- able ease and finessee.
 Sondra Johnson, as Pearl, Is the one bright sight for the eyes. The play will hold matinees to. day and tomorrow in addition to the evening performances.

| and the State Department.
 Another complete change of pace was his appointment as Budget Of- ficer of the Navy Department, which put his long legs under Q Washington desk for three years.
 Probably no officer in the United States Navy today understands as well as he the problems of the Britt ish blockade. Tn the World War he was executive officer of the U 8. s. New York, Fifth Battle Squadron, which aided the British in patroling the North Sea.
 Shortly before the United States entered the War, the navy had worked out q system of "spotting" It's shots by triangulation of movie cameras-that is, by focusing two cameras on the spot where the shots fell. The navy could deter. mine from this movie record wheth- CT 1t was shooting lover" or "under". When the U. s. s. New York went abroad, Admiral Kimmel was dc. tailed to take Q camera squad to Scapa Flow and show the British the trick. It greatly improved the accuracy of British fire, and they are again using the lessons Kim mel showed them at target practice off Scapa Flow.
 His last Job before becoming "Cln- cus," on February of this year, was Commander, Cruiser Battle Force of the Pacific Fleet. When Kimtnel was assigned to this post, the only indication he has as to how the new style heavy cruisers and destroyers would behave was what builders blueprints and the design engineers told him. With Admira Pye, who was in command of the Destroyer Battle Force, Kim. mel translated the battle perform. ance of these ships from theory to fact.
 Being "Cincus" is not Kimmel's sole job. He Is also Commander in Chief, Pacific Fleet. If the United States should go to war before his retirement (which is five years away), he would see active duty ct sea. Perhaps the most brilliant chapter of his career Is still to be written ia the log.

ports has left little In his voice and manner to identify him as Q southerner. When he can, he still likes to go south in the duck shoot- ing season. Today he plays golf when he can (he's cross- handed player) but hunting and fishing are his favorite sports. On sea duty he often organizes parties to go ashore for wild boar or to try their luck at barracuda.
 Admiral Kimmel will talk tactics, turkey shooting or tarpon If you like, but he shies at mention of the distinguished line Of Revolutionary War heroes and fighting men from whom he descends. Ills father, Major Manning Kimmel, was an armly officer.
 Being an "army brat" 1t was natural that young Kimmel should want to 90 to West Point. More than that, the future "Cincus" al- most lost such love as. he had for the navy when, as c boy of IA, his sailboat capsized in the Ohio River. He advertised 1t for sale livery cheap" But he couldn't get on ap. pointment to the military academy and chose Annapolis.
 As Q niidshipman he played class football, excelled as c gymnast, managed the varsity crew. Admiral Kimmel's career has developed in him talents of remarkable range. He Is as skillful in directing the soft spoken exchange of diplomats as in returning the enemy's compliments with loud-mouthed navy guns.
 KNOWS BLOCKADE
 PROBLEM
 Soon after he left Annapolis he took Q post graduate course in ord- nance, was later selected champion turret officer of the fleet for his performance with tWelve-inch guns. He served as assistant to the dlrec- tor of target practice at seq, and as assistant to the head of the naval gun factory ashore.
 During the trouble in Nicaragua, Kimmel was put in charge of the Central Division In the Office of Operations, and his job was to act as Jason officer between the Navy

Editor, Tall Tower Topics . From time to time dur ing the last several years has arisen in various parts of the country to the general effect that blind person might obtain Seeing Eye dog by collecting spec flied number of empty cigarette packages or cartons, empty match folders certain quantity of tin foil or other similar objects There is absolutely truth to any of these rumors We have been successful in stop ping them in acality only to have them crop out later In another Perhaps one reason for the spread of such at the present time is the effort of we'll 1ntenoned people to collect tin foil for and war relief purposes. Whenever such has to their at tertion, the cigarette companies have taken diligent measures to dispel It. Believing that public denals on their part might only accelerate It, they have taken other means to protect people from being thus cruelty hood wnked and in most instances they have succeeded in putting end to the rumor in particular locality. Nevertheless, every in while the tobacco manu- factrers and our own organization receive pathetic appeal from blind person asking that dog be sent to tin foi the quantities varying from 5000 to high really heartbreakng to have to tell these unfortunate persons that all their work in collecting these objects has been futile The purpose of this letter there- fore is to ask your assistance in the event that rnor of the kind mention arises in your community Your help will be most effective in suppementing our own ef- forts to stamp out these rumors We are not seeking publicity We will be glad to send complete information about services to any blind person between the ages
 of 18 and 50 who writes to The Seeing Eye at Morstow New Jersey Please let thank you for any cooperation you may be in position to give know the blind in your community will greatly appreciate any help on your part that will save then and friends who may be operating with the from useless work and dsappoint nient Very truly yours, Henry A. Colgate, President, The Seeing Eye Morristown, N. J.

e battle station aboard ship, and the officers protested this uncon- ventional command. Kimmel's an- swer to their spokesman was brief: You read the orders"
 Tough though he may be, there Is light side to Hubby" Kim mel. His alibi for slowness in matll as a student is still an Annapolis classic: "This isn't very good chalk they give is here, sir. If 1t hadn't been for that, I'd have worked twice as many problems"
 When he was Q young officer on duty of Guantanamo, one of his superiors invited him to go fishing. They came back with one fish. Kim mel held 1t up and said We got one, anyway" The admiral cor- rected him, What do you mean 'we'2 I hooked him." The next day the pair went out for birds and came back with one. Kimmel held 1t up and, looking straight ct his superior, announced: We got one, anyway"

 TO WEST POINT
 He seems to enjoy frightening junior officers nearly out of their wits by ealing them to the bridge, and discussing the days orders with brows gathered like storm signals, blue eyes staring.
 Then he breaks into wide grin as he dismisses them. They get to know 1t Is a form hazing intended as good clean fun, but more than one of them has been tempted to make Q dive for 1t before the grin came.
 His shipmates tell many stories which indicate that their "Cincus" (abbreviation for his title) has a sense of humor, but few of them have felt that they were close to him.
