So l have saved until the last the story of
Gordon Roll, the Playboy Nonpareil whom
not even war or German prison camp has
been able 10 wean from his old ways
In the years Immediately preceding the
Second World War Roll was the finest ex-
ample of English playboy extant- He rollicked
through life, squandering fortune.
When the war broke out, Roll a small.
dark, plump youth who peered at life through
horn-rimmed glasses always equipped, appar-
emily, with rose-colored lenses promptly en-.
listed a private in the Queens ROYAL
Regiment. But he did not change his mode
of living, except in barracks off duty he
continued to live like prince. In the Army,
Roll earned two shillings FORTY cents) day.
He spent a hundred pounds alone on dart
boards for his own outfit.
Then he and his regiment were sent 10

Germans
1t was a sad day for all the happy-go-

But it was far, far sadder day for the
English bookies They went into fun MOURN

inheritance from DOth his father and his

him prisoner, the bookes wrote off-for the
duration-their principal supporter
But they rcckoned without Roll Some
how, some way he SO organized his life i'm the

are permitted TO send him far in advance the

On last December 10,
Charlie went out with his
Squadron. Weeks later he
was reported missing"
presumably over Germany.
In the end, he had more
than paid for all his fun.
But all the stories do
not end tragically. There
is the hilarious story Of Bob
Newton, the playboy cinema
actor. He is an able seaman,
and the story is that he will
remain an able seaman as long
as he Is in the Navy.
His service in the Navy
has done little to repress this
uninhibited young man and
his very pretty and equally
uninhibited young wife. AL
thought an able seaman, New
ton and his wife, wherever sta
toned, have lived in the style
that an English Admiral can
only admire but seldom attain.
One night when the New
tons were giving a particularly
expensive and dressy party at
a Portsmouth hotel, one of the
Naval brass hats and his wife
entered the same dining room
for a quiet spot of supper.
Friends of the Newtons
who tell the story declare that
little Mrs. Newton, beautifully
groomed and chiefly dressed,
took an instant and intense
dislike to the hat worn by the
wife Of the brass hat. AS the
evening waxed and waned,
Mrs. Newton brooded over the
hat until she finally felt that
action was the only solution
for any hat so revolving.
So - it is alleged - Mrs.
Newton walked over 10 the
table occupied by the brass
hat and his wife, and - with
great politeness but extreme
firmness told the wife that
her hat was, without doubt,

Green Mice

The Manchester Guardian, well
known British newspaper, reports
that the County of Sussex has some
thing unique-a flock of green mice.
Perhaps when the reporter first
brought in the scoop to the editorial
desk it may have been thought that
he had visited too many Sussex pubs,
but careful checking showed that he
was right No less reliable an in
dividual than the rector of Hurst
monceaux had bred these mice, re-
quiring fifty generations to get them
the rich color of growing grass.
The question now arises as to their
usefulness. 1t would seem that they
should have a definite value in the
treatment of incipient delirium tre-
mems and ultimately displace the
pink elephant. The trouble with the
pale cerise pachyderm is that by the
time it is seen, it is too late to do
much about it; but If the family OF
the sufferer can surreptitiously in
troduce a green mouse into the sick
room, there may still be time to get
the patient to take the pledge and
avoid more horrible, if more unreal,

ment would meet the requirements
Of the immediate future.
But In the face of total war;" with
thousands of new employees and
stringent rationing Of private trans
portation facilities, these old esti-
mates must be discarded. President
E. D. Merrill Of Capital Transit has
expressed the opinion that the shift
from private to public transportation
will be gradual, thus enabling the bus
and streetcar lines to absorb the
extra load with minimum Of diff
Guilty. There is no certainty that this
will be the case, however, for already
there has been evidenced tendency
by car owners to discontinue use
of their cars for transportation to
and from offices, thus saving tires
and vehicles for essential travel not
readily done by bus or streetcar.
Since mass transportation must be
depended on largely to serve the
urgent requirements Of Government
agencies during this critical war
period, 1t is highly important that
company officials and public utility
authorities lose no time in endeavor-
ing to anticipate and to prepare for
the tremendous passenger burdens to
come. This is problem too serious
to be tackled haphazardly or super
f1cially. It demands broad, thor
ough-going study by transportation
experts, in cooperation with Fed
eral officials who may be in a
position to gauge possible future
needs and especially to arrange pri-
critics on bus and streetcar orders.
Unless prompt and intelligent action
Is taken now, the whole war effort
at this center of inter rallied activity
may be seriously hampered.

ters. Some day. we said, we will do 1t
entirely. No excuses will go. We will grab
those five big volumes, and tie them
down. We will read them all or bust.
Then there is Victor Hugo's Les Mis-
cradles"
Perhaps we shouldn't do so bold q
thing as to confess this one unread.
1t isn't the thing, nowadays, to make
such confessions.
The mode of the moment is to pre-
tend that you have read everything.
1t is much better to say, as blandly as
you can, when the inevitable question is
asked, and it will be asked, "Oh, yes, I
have read it; isn't it wonderful"
That is what we did-and most sue
cessfully, we thought-with Margaret
Mitcheu's epic Gone With the Wind"
Although we purchased and gave away
at least six copies of this tome, we have
yet to read more than four pages OF it.
We got as far as the two handsome boys
on the horses talking to the heroine,
Scarlet.
No doubt If we had gone on, we, too,
would have been as enthusiastic as
everybody else was. 1t is no reflection on
book, not to read it-nor, certainly, on
the reader
There are moods, in reading, and often
the book of the moment just will not
fit into the mood, or the mood will not
fit into the moment.
Crowded public transport offers an
unparalleled opportunity for half an
hours good reading. Yet how many
persons are as wise as our correspondent?
They spend the time looking out the
window at scenes they have seen thou
sand times on end.
They bore themselves with the same
stuffy old faces inside, or spend the time
fussing and fuming to themselves about
the crowding, lack Of ventilation etc.
1t would be much better to haul a
good book. magazine or paper out OF
the old bag, and read "for the duration y
This is an exercise in concentration,
as we'll as in reading.
At first, the feeling that some one IS
looking over your shoulder gets the best
of you. You are a nervous, apprehensive
reader.
In time, this feeling gives way to one
of solid satisfaction After quick
glance, most persons are courteous
enough to desist. Others may be
thwarted by holding the hands carelessly
over the title, or using a homemade
dust cover, which is not bad idea, any,
way, as it helps to keep book clean
We spent 40 minutes, once, trying to
see the title Of book held by lady in
| the aisle.
| The get-up of this volume was highly
artistic and interesting looking, but try
as We could-and we did-we never SC
much as got a glimpse of the title.
| Once We thought we had 1t, but just
then the lady twisted around bit, and
! 1t was gone forever.

Transportation Crisis

While it is yet too early to deter
mine what the full effects will be,
public transportation officials have
good reason to be concerned over
the serious strain which will be put
on bus and streetcar systems by the
rationing OF automobiles and tires.
AS the use of private cars declines
in the months to come, it is inevitable
that the passenger load on mass
transportation facilities will increase
far beyond existing or presently
planned capacities.
The situation with respect to the
Capital Transit Company is a case
in point. Last April the company
ordered 100 new buses to take care
of expanding business, due to emer-
gency growth Of Washington under
the defense program. Last October
an additional 200 buses and sixty
seven streetcars were ordered. It
was expected that this new equip
Evening star., 1942-01-07

take part in these pay roll savings
plans and must invest hundreds of
millions OF dollars more, If we are
to do our job" It is the Treasury
Departments goal, he continued, Ito
make every day Bond Day and to
have every wage Garner and salary
Garner put aside part Of every pay
check, every week, for the purchase
of Defense bonds and stamps"
But the money will supply the ma
chimes and the materials with which
the armed forces of the Nation will
defeat the Axis foes. The alternative
to such spending is an abject sur
render which no American worthy OF
the name would consider for a single
moment
