CHICAGO, Nov. 17-PEE. M.
Eversole, 79-lear-old retired train
man who has made a hobby OF
collecting railroad oddities, is re-
selling some Of his priced collec-
ton Of ancient railroad tickets
as souvenirs Of a bygone age.
The tickets, resembling bank
note currency, were printed by the
Bank Note company Of New York
in a series of three values-one's
two's and five's. Dated July l,
1873, they were issued by the
South Carolina Railroad company.
Slip number lone" entitled the
bearer to ride Is miles. Another,
numbered two" was good for
a ride of Is miles for two pas
sengers. Bill number five" would
carry a passenger 125 miles.
Eversole believes that the bank
note tickets probably came into
use during the years when hard
money" was out Of circulation and
was difficult to obtain, particular
ly in the South.
As far as he could learn, the
South Carolina Railroad was char
tered in December, 1927 as the
Charleston and Hamburg. one OF
the first in the United States and
the first railroad intended both
for general public transportation
and for locomotive operation. Con-

Invite Truman Here

While President Truman is spending
the week at Key Vests naval base
Wilmington's business, civic and gov
ernmental groups have such an oppor-
tunity to invite him to stop over on his
return flight as he may never come
again.
A few hours spent by the Chief
Executive inspecting Bluethenthal air
port, the industrial building now going
forward, the Cape Fear river, the plant
of the North Carolina Ship Building
Company, and hearing the need for
Civilian Aviation Board, the Maritime
Commission and congressional support
for contemplated developments would
be worth millions to the community.
A friend in the White House would
be of incalculable value.
The Presidents schedule provides for
departure from Key West on Saturday.
The time is none too long to fly a dele
cation to Key West to extend the in
vitation.

Crime is back on the front pages
of the newspapers. That is a sign
of the times. The mischief is that
it signalizes other and more signi-
ficant signs. A cursory glance at
the days big news, local and
international, gives the impression
that the world is going to the dogs.
But turn the page. There were
published last June dozens and
scores of portraits of high school
and college graduates. What a gal
lery they are of health and intel
ligence and high spirits! Brains
and ambition are written on their
faces. They are the makers of a
new world.
I bear in fadeless memory the
address of a girl in a Pennsylvania
mining town where I was the COM
mencement "orator". H e r speech
was better than mine. It would
have done credit to a United States
Senator.
Yet she was a 'first-generation
American. Her p a e S immi-
lgrants from Central Europe, bare
ly spoke English. The high patriot
ism that burned in her message,
was reflected in the remarkable
group of classmates behind her.
This is news m e significant
than crimes and violence. God is
preparing for us a new army OF
peace-makers.
We thank Thee, o Father in
Heaven. for our oncoming youth.
Amen.

Schleifer of Los Angeles and Louis
Newman of San Francisco became

schleifer sent me today's hand,
which brings out a very fine point.
Observe that South did not enter
the bidding. A player receives
valuable information from the bid
ding, and similarly, the lack OF

asked, (Which is the correct play
after winning the opening spade
lead-to go over to dummy with
the club and take the heart finesse,
or to lead the diamond"
If the heart finesse is taken, it
loses and the opponents cash Ssree
spake tricks and the ace of dia-
monds, setting the contract.
Schleifer said that when his jack
OF spades Won the first trick, he
knew that South had both the ace
and king Of spades. In addition
South held the ace of diamonds,
he certainly would have opened
the bidding, or come into the bid
ding over one club. He might have
the king of hearts but it was quite
definite that he did not have the
ace of diamonds.
Therefore the correct play was
to go over to dummy with a club
and lead a diamond, and if North
to 60 in with the ace, de-
would put up the king.
Schleifer says that it is impos-
sible to become a good player un-

Admitting at the outset that
-Four Hearts" is no competitor
with the product of Hollywood in
its technical aspects, it still must
be set down as a thoroughly enjoy
able light comedy. Coming at this
time, the film is quite an ambassa-
dor for Russia. not only eschewing
heavy-handed propaganda, but
joshing some aspects of Soviet life
and manners. There is. for exam

nificance?." growls the vendor.
-Four Hearts" has its most fun
kidding one of those r-so-serious
young career women the Soviet
seems to produce in great abun-
dance, laughing her right out of
her mathematical preoccupation
into the arms of a young army
officer. This young lady, played
by Valentino Serova, is a deep
thinker who goes around teaching
calculus, but she is constructed
along such lines that calculus prob
ably would be the subject furtherest
from the mind of any male in her
classroom and Konstantin Yurdin
who directed the Mosflm produc-
ton, proves in one hilarious shot
that the Russians are as we'll aware
of that as any one. This is the mo-
ment when Miss Serova, concluding
a telephone conversation, slams the
receiver down, smoothes her dress,
then looks straight at the audience,
raising an eyebrow and seeming
about to demand: We'll, who are
you staring at?"

An airplane driver we know is
frankly puzzled and perhaps a bit
apprehenSive about a feature story
from Hollywood he read in one of
the local papers, describing a plane
ride with Dick Powell, the actor,
who has just received a pilot S
license permitting him to take
friends aloft. Mr.. Powell is quoted
as saying: The tests aren't easy.
I had to do figure 8s in the air
and on the ground and slow and
fast stalls Since our friend un-
doubtedly was in the air when he
read this, lolling back in a recon-
verted C-54 at his ease, with one
foot resting comfortably between the
throttles and the stablizer wheel,
letting his co-pilot do all the work,
he perhaps was more alarmed than
you might be by Powell's statement.
Anything you read about flying
is likely to scare the daylights out
OF you, especially if you have been
flying since airplanes were made out
of old bedsheets, boX-kites and bail
ing wire, as this man has. Any
how he thinks it is the business OF
drama department to explain ac-
tors, particularly when they &c
around talking about figure 8s on
the ground and fast stalls.
The best advice we can give our
friend is to stay away from the
vicinity of Hollywood until this mat
ter is cleared up. He might get out
there and be, forced by the author
tiles to demonstrate figure IS on the
ground, in order to retain his license,
and he surely would develop a
serious case of nose wheel shimmy
if he did not bend his C-54 rather
severely. 1t may be that actors are
required to do figure IS on the
ground before they are permitted to
fly, but we think Mr.. Powell has
been misquoted on that other mat
ter, since he must know by now
that stall is what happens when
an airplane loses flying speed. He
has never seemed the type to prac-
tice the Hollywood fast stall, ma
neuver executed by a star when
the chum who supported HIM in his
preburlesque days attempts to put
the bite on him for a double saw
