Breezing Round New York


New York, May 16, l942:-Any old-timer in New York will tell you that nid-town's most famous Eng fish style mutton chops are to be enjoyed best ats Keen's Chop House at 72 WeSt 36th street. These are huge affairs, deliciously prepared tempting in looks and aroma, and surrounded by large baked potato in addition to other accessories necessary in lavish spread. You find an exceptional flavor value ir this spot. It has an atmosphere ex- clusively its own.
 A glance at other patrons Is enough to inform an observer that these people are here for eating and relaxation. Many customers of bott sexes can be seen leisurely putting on long white clay pipes. That's s different sight in New York. Most restaurants hope pipe smokers will park their smoking utensils out oi sight until they depart. At Keen's there is fascinating ritual to en- courage using a pipe and leaving 1t there in safe hands for return trips.
 A long slender clay requires an initial purchase investment of one dollar. In addition to this old-fash- toned substitute. meerschaumr comes the privilege of registering with famous, frivolous, fastidious and fashionable folks. These sigma lures constitute world d-renowned autograph collection, different from all others. Its signers have recogniz- ed the mercenary motive involved in the smoking service and sought to sign instead of being bounded by collectors seeking the favor.
 One can go way back to the days of the formation of the original Lambs Club for signatures of great people who have gone before. Their names are written in the volumes which definitely identify each indi- vidual pipe whether it be used twenty days consecutively or once in twenty years.
 A number of those same sigma lures have been recorded perman- ently elsewhere to make lasting fame in every highest rank of en- deavor, government. medicine, law charity, finance, art, magazine edu- cation architecture society and on through the classification of every known human endeavor.
 That sounds like a lot of pipes It is 8 considerable number. One has but to look upward or sidewise to preceive not hundreds but thousands of the poor mans com panion, neatly arranged in special pipe holders--most have numbers corresponding to the one opposite it's owners name in the Keen regis- try.
 The exceptions have embellish- ments such as only 8 Believe It or Not Ripley" or "Kewpie" (Rose ONeilD like to create, by their own skill.
 Long stemmed clays are often

laid by for the winter. En route to Bad Nauhein cards, suspenders, shirts and shoes disappeared from my trunk.
 We found Nauheim attractively within sight and sound of British raids on Frankfurt. The Grand Hotel is the towns most luxurious, but facilities were not functioning properly, due to lack of use since before the war.
 GESTAPO APPROVES
 SPORADIC RIOTS"
 Embassy Counsellor Leland Mor- riS directed us to conduct ourselves "aS in any first class hotel" Despite this strain on our ilnaginations we toed the mark fairly well. Even our Gestapo guards sympathetically ex- plained our occasional tempera- mental outbreaks as due to arrest psychosis." They said that a certain amount of spittoon- throwing and Misunderstanding was only natural considering our long confinement.
 The food was generally rnpala- table, Ilnnourishing and occasionally impoSsible-there was one serving of rotten fish for example. Potatoes that were frozen black and blue appeared regularly, and for weeks, in midwinter, we were never served fruit or salad. A pitcher of milk cost forty cents.
 Sharp words often were ex- changed between walters and guests" as a result of the service and dirty dishes. Then came feld-

COURSE PLANNED
 TN AERONAUTICS
pr. COndOn Recommends Purchase of Text Books
 for l942-I043

A course on aeronaut!cs may be added to the local high school cur riculum next year, 1t was announced at a meeting of the board of educa- ton last night. Tn asking the board to approve of 8 textbook by Pope and Otis on Elements of Aeronau- tics" pr. Thomas J. Condon, school superintendent, pointed out that a request had come from Washington that students who may enter the service be given a groundwork for their future training. He explained that the subject of aeronautics may be added to courses on mathematics or physics or may be the basis for new course.
 The model plane building project being conducted at Leavenworth high school would remain separate from the new study, Dr. Condon stated in reply to Cons. John J. Kearney who suggested that Leav- enworth high school might be the school for giving the new course. The superintendent of schools ex- plained that such course was de- Sirable for students of all high J schools.
 Other textbooks approved by the board are as follows:
 Industrial Electricity by Nadon and Gelmine, published by D. Van Nostrand Company.
 Using Dollars and Sense, by Floyd and Kinney, published by Newson & Company.
 Essays in Modern Thought, by Thomas R. Cook, published by D. c. Heath & Company.

GOING upY

It's Impossible to remain aloof When 1t comes time to dine on the roof. Then is noted the informal air, Gals wearing white when the night is fair. The bandmen are dressed in summer array Way up on the roof both night and day. Going up? Elevator express to the top Under the stars where it's popular to hop. Going up? It's sort of nice to dine high Or lunch to soft music, oh me, oh my! Sidewalk cafes are all right some days, But not too cosy under the suns hot rays.

STATE

Performances this evening at War ner's State theater conclude the engagements of Bob Hope and Madeleine Carroll in My Favorite Blond" also the Dead End Kids and the Little Tough Guys in Tough As They Come"
 Tomorrow the State uShers in al- other smash mid-week show treat withs Tn This Our Life" starring Bette Davis, OliviO de Havilland George Brent and Dennis Morgan as the headliner.
 Tn This Our Life" has been ac- claimed as the picture that really tops Kings Row" and if you saw that sensational film you'll know 1t must be real good to rate such applause.
 The film is set in the south where once proud family, the Timber lakes, have lost much of their pres tige, due to the financial manipu- lations of one member of the fam fly. Bette plays the role of Stan ley, & capricjous, inconsiderate girl who believes her own happiness is the only thing that counts. Re- gardless of whom 1t may hurt, she is determined to do just as she pleaSes. But she never gains that happiness. Her own striving for the unattainable brings unhappiness to her and to everyone with whom she comes in contact.
 Her sister, Roy, played by Olivia de Havilland, is the one to be most affected by Stanley's thoughtless acts. Stanley, who is engaged to Craig Fleming, 8 bright young law yer, played by George Brent, plans to forget about him and run off with her sisters husband, Peter, a surgeon, portrayed by Dennis Mor- gan.
 After very short time, Peter realizes his mistake in divorcing his wife and marrying Stanley. He be- comes so miserable that he is forced to commit suicide.
 Besides the four big stars in the leading roles thee talented cast in- cludes such outstanding personalities as Charles Coburn, Frank Craven and Billie Burke.
 In This Our Life" is one of the years most poignant dramas and according to reports it's another Academy Award performance for Miss Davis. Put it on your must" list and be sure to attend the open- ing performances tomorrow after noon. Doors of the theater will be open at l2:l5 so come early and leave early.
 And for your further enjoyment the management presents sweet heart of the Fleet" with Joan Davis and Jinx Falkenburg.

Reporter Plight

<, Frederick Oechsner, of the Unitet Press, received a special medal fo1 directing Wednesday and Saturda& entertainments The 11ewspapermeI organized a male sextet, which lated expanded into an excellent chorus From the lobby, the Gestapo and hotel employees watched our showa with goggle-eyed al1azemsnt, prob- ably wondering how we could be sd carefree during war. The Germana banned some entertainments, such as kite-flying, and branded dande- Iion-picking as larceny.
 LISTENED TO
 LONDON RADIO
 One group evaded the radio ban by listening to London every night with a pocket battery set. Other diversions included a library do- mated by the group and a shopping center for bartering minor items.
 Mass, held for Catholics at a nearby church, permitted furtive conversations with Latin Amer jeans. Other worshippers held sun- day services in the hotel.
 Our nearest link to America was the small river "Usa," along whose banks we walked mornings and afternoons. Escape plans were numefous, but none was tried. Two temporary disappearances stirred wild rumors until the absentees showed up.
 All this ended when special trains carried us and the Central Americans from Bad Nauheim ola the evening of May 12. We crossed the French frontier early the nexv morning.
 WITNESS GERMAN
 MILITARY MANEUVERS
 After a second night in the trains we were lodged in the Hotel Palaiss at BiarritZ, where food was prac- tically non existent. The morning or our departure from there, we were treated to ostentatious maneuvers by Q German regiment, practicing landings along the beach bordering the hotel. There were smoke screenss heavy firing by guns of all cahnerss and roaring war planes.
 Leaving Hendaye, we were nov searched and were greeted by ths Spanish with the most agreeable "propaganda"-the best of food wine, service and friendliness. Ger mans accompanying us were friend# ly and correct in all details. Amer ica officials admiarbly supervised al the trips details and handled witt wisdom the progigal celebrations q our departure from Axis territory.
 Taking events singly, internmen was generally bearable. But tn cumulative effect of time draggine on without hint or hope of depar ture without word from friends o families, the German rations a1lA other nconveniences, the nigh long plodding of guards under ol windows, plus the knowledge th every move was watched, every con versatoin snooped upon, all add Il to 8 drab chapter in anyone's If

Helmeted soldiers, with rifles, pistols and bayonetS, guarded us necessarily. Supper, per man, con- sisted of two slices of bread, ersatz coffee, one pat of butter. We lined up for lunch, when slumgullion was ladled out. For breakfast, there were two slices of dark bread, ersatZ coffee and synthetic marmalade.
 Foreign. Office propaganda offi- cialS who visited us once professed amaZement at our situation, claim ing that we were arrested without their knowledge. It was hinted nev- erthelesS, that we were no worse off than Germans held on Ellis Island.
 GERMANS STEAL
 PERSONAL PROPERTY
 Freedom from Grunau came on the night of Dec. 13, during din- ner for my birthday. As the news paper men went over to the Elm. basSy, all thought that we would be out of Germany in two weeks. But five long, weary months were ahead at Bad Nauheirn.
 Returning to Berlin from Cru nau, we discovered that our per- sonal possessions had been rum- maged through, and were consider ably depleted. My hausfrau hap oily declared "Your stuff's here just as you left It." But I found missing my personal notes, photos, letters, memoirs of my experipence in France when the Germans came in. Also gone were cocoa, tea, cof- fee, soap, butter and ham I had

 The diet and the intense cold created an epidemic of skin rash. Many of us stayed in. bed all day or warmed our hands over charcoal fires.
 CONDITIONS IMPROVED
 AFTER FORMAL PROTEST
 The Germans never provided facilities for buying cigarettes or toothpast and rarely for soap. Con- ditions improved after our embassy lodged a protest, via Washington.
 However, the Germans obviously believed that they treated us well, Our food actually amounted to one and a half times the Germans own rockbotton war rations. The Ger mans were handicapped by the winters extreme cold, railway tie-

 If internment had a bright side, 1t was provided by the internees themselves. Newsmen got out @ paper.

 Anothe time-passing enterprise was "Badheim University" which had lneteoric careed with a cur- riculum boasting classes in six lan- guages, philosophy, law, literature, and first aid, to say nothing of tap, ballroom and Indian dancing. There was also series of lectures on spring sports,

 Taverns of those days likewise cared for fragile clay pipes of their patrons. One of the old-time cus- toms was to break the stem of a pipe when the registered owner passed away. It was then replaced in the pipe-racks to occupy the customary place as long as the tav- ern remained.
 That honorary observance in force at Keen's accounts for solid row after row of pipes, silent tribute that has more than once brought to mind, renembrances of old acc quaintances not forgotten. One follow aptly gave out this ad- wise to 8 beginner at Keenis,--"A symbol of peace, source of plea sure, smoke moderately friends to find its treasure"
 There are other early American objects of equal interest for those who look and see.
