 fat, very lazy, very romantic peon who, his little nephew Pepito boasts is the greatest grower of beans in the world. Certainly Condo is the greatest consumer of beans in the world. His gargantuan hunger, his predilection for siestas and seren- ades, his ability to postpone mak- ing any effort, his complete satis- faction with himself are bases fol this funny strip.
 In the few short weeks since its artist, Gus Ariola, was discharged from the Army and resumed draw ing Gordo, the strip has achieved wide popularity. In recent poll among readers of the Philadelphia Record, it ran fourth among the 25 comics which that paper runs.
 In nearby Greenwich, the fat men of the community have formed a club, the members of which salute each other with the greeting of "Gordo." Life Magazine is current ly preparing story of the sensa- tional rise to favor of Gordo and his playmates.
 The late Col. Joseph Patterson, publisher of the New York News for many years, always was the guid- ing genius behind the comic strips which his paper produced. He work ed closely with the artists in for mulating characters, in creating stories and in revising the dialog and action which went into the very popular Ney York News Chi cago Tribune comic strips.
 Just before his death, Colonel Patterson was engrossed in the pre- liminary planning of a new comic, "Aggie Mack, fourth of the new comics which start Monday in The Democrat. His sure-fire sense of public reaction is responsible for the general character of Aggie and the kind of story which is built around her. Aggie Mack is a step- child, 12 or 13, who suffers all sorts of indignities, comic and otherwise, at the hands of in-laws with whom she lives.
 "Aggie Mack" makes its first ap- pearance on Monday, not only in The Waterbury Democrat but in more than 70 other leading dailies all over the country. Like "Smilin' Jack, "Smitty" and "Gordo," Ag- gie Mack will appear every night in The Democrat, beginning next Monday.
