the magazine Steel reported to-

from making further commit

trade journal added.
Steel bar deliveries also are
checked, due in part to the shift
ing of alloy steel production from
open hearths to electric furnaces.
The government has urged larger
use of electric steel to utilize the
greatly increased capacity and
thus relieve pressure On open
hearths.
Deliveries of carbon bars are
about five months delayed, the
publication declared, while cleo
trio steel bars can be had before
the end Of the year, although
schedules are being extended.

largest factor in keeping the rate

now. Andrea would always take
what she wanted-unless she want
ed Jim.
Beth was very sure that Andrea
would not want Jim if she knew
Beth did.
The thought of Dennis Archer
returned to Beth's mind.
She wondeed if she would have
liked Dennis if he had not beer
married. He was all that Andrea
said. smooth and worldly ano
charming, sometimes grave
sometimes gay, and frequently al
their apartment. Dennis was IL
love with Andrea. Beth was sure,
and she resented it, as she Woulo
resent any act of dishonor. Let
him get a divorce or be divorced,
and then co,lrs Andrea.
Beth had been politely pleasant
to him, no more, and when she
told Andrea why, that had been
the end OF any conversation about
him.
Beth's hopes took wing. Why
hadn't she thought of that before
during these three days? Dennis
might be getting a divorce. Dennis
and Andrea might be secretly en-
Gagged. What a little fool she was
to have shut out condolences be-
tween herself and Andrea.
She went home then, and got a
dinner of the sort Andrea would
like. creamed soup and stuffed al
l;gator pear and dripping sweet.
Moving about the small kitchen,
she felt like someone coming out
of fever, all her fears swept
away, a sense of anticipation buoy
ing her up.
If Andrea didn't feel that way
about Jim, the way Beth feared,
Jim would still be her own and
time would right everything. Had
he not told her she was IAN an

Andrea-dear Andrea, gay and
pretty Andrea. Come in when
Beth was fixing dinner and said,
Goodies are under way and you
are looking less than bag for a
change. What's come over you
lately, Beth?'
Slight attack Of imagination,
that's all. Speaking of changes
Beth's voice was deliberately light
seems to me you've been rather
subdued this week? Anything on
your mind?"
Andrea's eyes were evasive and
she said, mo, nothing more than
usual"
Beth plunged:
"Believe it or not, I think I'm
coming around to liking Dennis. "
Andrea pushed her plate away
with an abrupt gesture and, get
ting up, she strobe across t h e
room and pushed tn curtains
aside, she said, She's here, Beth.
Dennis wife is back here. l hate
her! She doesn't want him. but
she won't let him go-he says. ]
| MINK nate MIN, TOO. he S never

Beth got up and went to the
window, pulling Andrea about sc
that she could look into her face.
Does he love you?'
There were high spots of anger
burning on Andrea's cheeks. Eyes
she said vehemently, 'but that's
rot enough. I'm Is and I'm moi

Then she sat down and calmly

 Now It looks as if he has another potential star at his Downtown spot in Ann Cornell, petite singer who is on the Lena oHrne order when it comes to looks, and your movie screens will have told kou by now that this is certainly no liability. Ann is the gal who was going to make her debut under the weight of the name Katherine Ann Cor nell, but everyone concerned de- cided that show business needed only one K. c. and the, first name was jettisoned
 Miss Cornell has a sweet, effort less voice and sells her songs with personality that would draw cheers from mummy. She does blues and rhythm numbers equally well and she's ready on her way. A leiIldlc CIlClC ODlIleu tIldJ LIlc OILY thing wrong with Ann was her coif- fure; too severe. Someone always has to be splitting hairs.
 THOSE BROADWAY stagedoor- haunters, the autograph collectors, had exceptionally good hunting at the movie premier of This Is the Army" In the crowded lobby they were able to run down some of showdom's biggest names.

 This negative attitude was dis closed through the patriotic offer of OHvio, champion boy yodeler who has radio program to instruct the country's fighting men in the art. Olivio figured that this type of vocal calisthenics would furnish a good method for the men to keep in touch with each other when they get into isolated places such as mountains, jungles and forests.
 He communicated with the War Department and got an answer from lieutenant-colonel of the Signal Corps that the Army has no need for this types of communica tion just now. The officer thanked Olivio kindly and said that it cer- tainly would keep him in mind if the need to yodel arose.
 With all due respect to Olivio and his accomplishment, I suspect that the War Department gave a collective shudder when his offer was received and that it's promise to keep him in mind was just genteel but permanent brush-of One good yodeler is okay, maybe two, but can you imagine what life would be like if ten million men were de- mobilized after having acquired the ability to vocalize in that pecu- liar fashion!
 THERE'S a sign over in Times Square that lot of people hope is prophetic. It read: 'World-closed for alterations. Will reopen soon" It is on top of the World Theater which features-foreign films. ADD to the Spanish type enter tainers who are raising the blood pressure around town the name of Lolita Cordoba, gingery gal with an adaptable accent who is con- peting against the cooling system in Leonello's Harlequin club these nights. She $ best on the fast con- edy numbers and proves to be a master of body English or, as it is vulgarly known, the shimmy.
 If anyone offers to sell you some genuine Tobruk sand" don't buy 1t unless qualified chemist discov- CTS that it assays at least 10 per cent Rommel dust. There's zeen at least one gent around town trying to put this modern twist on the Brooklyn Bridge sale gag. He ire quents bars seeking sympathetic customers and bartenders, and tells the story that he has been honor ably discharged after serving in North Africa. Then he produces some tiny bags of sand which, he says, is right off the beach at To- bruk, .and others to sell them for whatever the traffic will bear. It's real sand, all right-from Coney Island
