Why the Surprise Over
Horse Meat Sales?
WNu SeNO

In Newark, IN. j., CutClielS lliolS'
that the sales of horse meat are up
so to rs per cent. and that, as a mat
ter of fact, customers like 1t.
There is nothing bad about horse
meat" says one butcher. 1T is just
a question of mind over matter
Boston. too, is eating horse meat.
No horse is really safe in the pres
ent crisis.
Elmer Twitchell declared today
that horse meat is not to be be-
Titled. Il have had beefsteaks late
ly that l am quite sure were in the
racing entries once" he said.
THE reason people go for sow
meat and not for horse meat is n
of sentiment and custom. If we
gave lame like Blue Larkspur, Old
Rosebud. Eternal and Bimelech to
COWS, folks would feel differently
toward beef" continued Elmer.
-
why do people shudder at the
mention of a terde:lcin of horse
and thrill to it from cattle? Be-
cause no general was ever photo
graphed coming home from the
wars on the back of a COW! Because
Black Beauty wasn't a bovine! Be-
aus the poets. authors and movie
writer's get romantic over horses,
but never over h~eifers."
"Tle whole history Of meat as a
food might have been different if
Washington had ever ridden a COW
or if Ben-Ilur had driven a team
of longhorns."
"Suppose the Charge of the Light
Brigade had been an epic Of the
cow country instead Of cavalry
mounts? What if Napoleon's COW
had been stuffed and put in a mu'
scum instead of his horse?"
! Have you eaten many horses?'
we asked.
I'm afraid So" he replied. '1r
fact, I haven't had a steak ir
months that didn't strike me as
once having had a saddle on it
Only last night the waiter pointed
to a club steak on the menu, anC
when I asked if it was good he
started to HANDICAP IT."

Auto Drivers Are Warned
 Trick Fines Used,
 Motor Club Says

Use of a legal fiction to gain con- viction of Connecticut auto drivers who operate in Massachusetts more than 30 days a year without get ting registration in that state was charged against police of Spring field, Mass. today by the Connecti- cut Motor Club.
 Tn the event an arrested driver does not have insurance, a double charge is made-driving an unin- sured vehicle and driving an unre- gistered vehicle" R. Edwin Steele, AAA. secretary of the Motor Club, said today. They do this even though the vehicle is properly reg istered in Connecticut and, by re- ciprocal agreement, his Connecticut registration is as valid in Massa- chusetts as are Massachusetts mark CTS in Connecticut
 If the driver pleads guilty to the charge of operating an unregistered motor vehicle he is fined S25. This the average driver does rather than risk s1O0 fine on the uninsured charge, Steele continued.
 Springfield police are checking Connecticut cars as they cross the bridge at Bridge Street and Colum- bia Avenue and consistent visitors, most of whom have business in Massachusetts, are tracked down after they have been recorded as visitors on 30 days.

HOLLYWOOD, August 16 - Ac- cording to an inside" report from MGM, James Craig can thank the lusty lungs of Hollywood's bobby soxers for one of the casting plums of 1946-the lead in the outdoor epic, Gun Glory" Metro bosses, accord ing to my informant, decided to give him that part only because they were impressed by the enthusiastic reception accorded him by the on- lockers when he appeared at the premiere of The Green Years"
 Now don't think I have anything against James Craig. Far from it, like him, and I'm overjoyed to see him get a good break. But I don't like the fashion in which it came to him. I hate to see Hollywood pro- ducers who should know enough about star-building to make their decisions intelligently, being swayed by the clamor of the juvenile fans.
 According to recent surveys of movie attendance, the bobby -soxers buy only about l3 percent of the to- tai number of tickets sold. The other 67 percent are purchased by adults. Why, then, should the 'crushes" of the kids be given such attention by studios which are, or should be, in the business of making movies to please the majority of their patrons?
 The answer, of course, is obvious. It's the kids who make the noise! It's the kids who write the fan let : ters! It's the kids who flock to the Hollywood nightspots and the pre- view theaters to see stars and hunt autographs! And the producers are just suckers enough to jump every time the moppets scream.
 Memories That Bless and Burn: When Spencer Tracy, forbidden to play polo because studio bosses con- Sidered it too dangerous, bought a yacht, took it on trial cruise, and came within a few feet of wrecking it on a shoal in Southern Califor- nias most perilous coastal waters. .. When Jack Pickford, after boasting in the dining room of the old Agua Caliente resort about the S5 ,000 he had won in the gambling casino in few minutes before, tried to illustrate his story by displaying the money-and found that his pocket had been picked as he left the cashiers window ..... When the master of ceremonies at Para mounts national sales convention, some 20 years ago, introduced Our most famous red-head'-and both Nancy Carroll and Clara Bow stood up to take the bow.

Victorian Naughtiness ProDides Fun at Dale
BY BETTY BLANCHARD

Nine seasoned troopers Of the New Milford Theater-in-the-Dale Com pany last night ran the gamut of emotions from A to z in Mrs. Tenn ples Telegram" that very, very naughty comedy of manner launch ed in 1903. '-=-.
 Yellowed theater records reported that mustached gentlemen and fam waving ladies rollicked in the seats of the old Madison Square Theater some 40 years ago when Florence Reed appeared as the suspicious, weeping wife who tried ever so hard to maintain her trust in her hus- band.
 It may also be safety assumed that the play must have been bann in Boston because it involves a hus- band who spent the entire night with another mans wife high up in ferris wheel because of disar- rangement in the machinery of the wheel. But rest assured there isn't a line or situation which wouldn't re- ceive the ready stamp of approval today of the rigid Bostonian censors
 However, the play does offer plen- ty of suspence. Authors Frank Wyatt and William Morris carefully and slowly set, the stage in the first act, but once the pot pourri was mixed so many complications and subse- quent difficulties arose. happy SOL utlon appears impossible right up to the final curtain.
 Bedlam is let loose when friend husband returns home from his mysterious night out and invents a lie, saying he has been with a friend. To assuage his wife's Sus- picion and anger, he supplies off-hand a name and address to which the wife immediately sends a telegram.
 The Dales players last night handled their difficult roles with zeSt. James Lanphier, as the mis- understood husband, and Doris Me- Lean, as the emotional Mrs. Tem- pie, battled realistically throughout the three acts. Gloria Willis pre- sented her usually fine perform ance. Hugh Fellows, as the pre- Varlcating MT. Fuller was unusually adept in keeping his lines straight despite the many situations he created.
 Gloria Whitney was properly de- mure as the young lady in love with Captain Sharpe played to perfec- tion by John Edgar.
 Richard Saunders made an im- presSive butler. Top honors how ever went to Marguerite Lewis and William Robertson, the innocent cockney couple whose lives were peaceful and happy until the ar rival of Mrs. Temples telegram.
 The play will be presented tonight and Saturday night. Next week the Dale players offer Murder With out Crime, which promises to be a hit since it features the versatile William Robertson.

Dying Mother Granted Wish

Chicago, Aug. 16-CUP)-Mrs. Marie Ressner. 32, today faced cer- tain death without fear, knowing that her four-year-o son would have new parents when she dies of an incurable ailment in few weeks.
 She did not want Charles to be cared for by his father, Martin Ressner, 35, whom she divorced in 1914, on an adultery charge. This was her only fear.
 Her brother, Jacob Speeter. and his wife, Esther, of Milwaukee, had offered to adopt the child and every thing seemed arranged, until her former husband appeared to con- test the adoption and demand GUS tody of Charles.
 The frail mother left her bed to go to court yesterday and ask Coun- ty Judge Edmund K. Jarecki to grant her last wish Mrs. Ressner collapsed when Jarecki ruled in her favor.

JIMMIE FIDIER m HoUyUood

Jackie Cooper tells it. Seems that his missus June Horne, was display ing the ultra modern nursery built for their expected heir to the elder ly lady who lives next door. Proudly Mrs. Cooper called attention to the thermostatic control installed to regulate the rooms temperature, and to the innumerable other gadgets designed to heat the babys milk, purify the air, regulate the brillian- cy of lights and control humidity. Isn't it wonderful?" she said. Sci ence has thought of everything" Not quite," objected the neighbor, who happens to be grandmother of four, T think you'll find one thing missing. There's nothing here to give you the kind of moisture con- trol you'll need the most!"
 There's a heart -throb in the story Martha Vickers tells about one Of her experiences at a recent party, given for wounded veterans at Birm- ingf1am General Hospital. Arriving late, she was introduced to young ster in tunic covered with cam paign ribbons, and, without any preliminary chat, began dancing with him. A split moment later, the music stopped, and Miss Vickers automatically started for one of the tables, only to come to bewil- dered halt when she noticed that her partner was not accompanying her. She returned to him and asked what was wrong. Will you please help me off the floor" he asked, You see, I'm totally blind!"
 Maybe it's an old story, but it's new to me, so I'll take chance. I'm referring to Alfred Lunt's ad- vice to beginning actors as reported by Rory Malinson, who once asked the great stage star for help. Said Lunt: You haunt producers offices your first year, and finally you get role in play. The only line you'll speak will be Here's letter, George. The next year, you'll inter view twice as many managers, and Iyou'l wind up with the same one line And the third you'll still be saying Here's a letter, George But after about three years, If you've said your one line well enough, why l-boom!-al of a sudden, you're GEORGE!"
 Dana Andrews, yachting near Bal boa Bay some days ago, rescued a boatload of people when their dory was eapsi0ed by an oversized wave.

New York, Aug. 16-UP)-PresS Wireless, Inc, attempting to end an eight-day strike by members of the American Communications Associa- ton (CI.OD, proposed today the im- mediate appointment of an arbitra- tor to decide whether the union vii plated its contract when it called the strike.
 The proposal, in form of a tele- gram signed by Press Wireless Pres ident A. Warren Norton, was sent last night to H. Ross Colwell, region al director of the United States Cancellation Service.
 ColWell said early today that as yet he had not read the telegram, but that he intended to take the matter up-probably before noon with Joseph Selly, International President of AGA.
 T want to go to the top man." he explained.
 The management proposal pro- vides that if the arbitrator decided that the union had not violated it's contract, the company would rein- state 46 discharged employees and then proceed with arbitration of the merits of their discharge.
 However, if the arbitrator decided the strike was a contract violation, Press Wireless proposed that all strikers return to work, except those who were discharged, and then the arbitrator decide the merits of the case
 Under the proposal both the eom- pany and the union would name one arbitrator and together agree on an impartial chairman.
 Norton, in the telegram, added the condition that Philip Murray, CI.O. President, guarantee in writing that the AGA. will live up to this agreement.
 If this offer is accepted and guaranteed, the telegram said Press Wireless will immediately ar range for details of arbitration"
