(ANP)-Fifty-one year old Anko-
behene Adel Mensah and Gy Scheme
Kwasi Afriyio, 40, both district
chiefs, are reported to be engaged

Steel WORKER NAMED
CARNEGIE HERO

PITTSBURGH, May 1. (ANP)
-Buffard Vason, a blast furnace
worker in Duquesne, Pa, has been
named as one of the 19 bronze med
al award winners to be recognized
for acts of heroism during 1915, it
was announced here by the Car
negie Hero Fund commission.
Vason, 33, attempted to save Carl
H. Lunderstadt, a fellow worker in
one of the Duquesne steel mills,
from suffocation at the risk of his
own life. Lunderstadt was over
come by gas fumes when he rescued
John Kovac, a foreman, from a pit.
Lunderstadt collapsed after saving
Kovac, and Vason descended into
the pit to aid him. Attempts to re-
move Lunderstadt from the pit
were successful, but efforts to re-
vive him failed.

FORMER DISABLE CAGE STAR
SIGNS With GL0BETR0HERS

CHICAGO, May l. (ANP)-Abe
Saperstein, owner and coach of the
Harlem Globe-trotters, signed Ma
thaniel (Sweetwater) Clifton, for
mer DuSable High school cage star,
to a contract to play next season
with the famous local team, which
recently returned from the Hawaii
an islands.
The 23-year-old Clifton, who
stands six feet seven inches and
weighs 230 pounds, made history
at DuSable high school here from
the 1938-39 season through the
1941-42 campaigns. He was hon
ored as All-Chicago High School
center during the 1941-42 seasons
and set an individual scoring record
for one game of As points in the
University of Chicago tournament
in 1941, which still stands.
He was able to attend Xavier col
lege, New Orleans, for one year be-
fore induction into the army where
he won new fame as a cage star.
He averaged over 20 points a game
to spark the sgd Quartermaster
battalion, stationed at Leghorn,
Italy, to a record of Is victories
against three losses early this year
after he had helped the Chandler
Base team near Brussels to compile
one of the best records in the area
late last year.
'"This deal assures us of one of,
if not the best team," Saperstein
said in announcing Clifton's con-
tract. with Babe Presley and
Zack Clayton, guards, and for
wards Ted Strong and Reese
Goose Tatum, in addition to Cliff
ton, we have more height, scoring
punch and defense than ever"

Celebrities Guardian
He is nursemaid to the
great - from kings and
queens to Elsie the Cow

ARTURO ToscANINI is a name
"A that commands respect in music
Circles and among autograph COL
lectors. The maestro's signature is a
valuable item because it's so difficult
to get. And the one who makes it
difficult is Al Walker - a man with
stars in his hair.
His title is Executive Assistant,
specializing in guest relations. BY
eliminating the double-talk it's SIM
ply bodyguard and nursemaid to the
greats of NBC. But. more than that.
he is personally responsible for their
well-being and peace of mind while
they are in Radio City.
He has herded notables of all sorts
from the King and Queen of
England to Elsie the Cow. And he
does it with no effort at all.
Co0ducto4'S Pal
l oscANINI is his special ward.
Walker has so endeared himself to
the famous conductor that no one
but Al is allowed in the musicians
dressing room before concert. And
the maestro has 50 endeared himself
to his bodyguard that Walker has a
drink with him after each appear
ance - and AL Walker is a very
temperate guy.
With all his antipathy to auto
graph collectors, AL confesses to
collecting . couple himself. The
occasion was the Washington Cor
respondents dinner for President
Roosevelt - NBC supplying the
talent, Walker on the job checking
everybody in with the Secret Service
and the FBI.
The President arrived and after
being introduced to Walker, he whis-
pered request: two autographs for
his grandchildren. AL cornered Bob
Hope and music director DR.. Frank
Black with pencil and paper in hand.
but that's the last time he'll do it.
Wounded Twice
AL SERVED overseas in the first
World War, was wounded twice,
won a lieutenant's commission. The
war over he returned. opened a gym
and later became a physical training
instructor at NBC. Today. at As, he
looks older but his looks are deceiv-
ing. He has kept up his physical
condition and has the stamina of a
man 20 years his junior.
Knowing so many celebrities is
apt to make him calloused towards
all, but he does have favorites: Fritz
Kreisler, Babe Ruth, the late Ignace
Paderewski and Franklin D. Roose-
welt. But the top spot - after Mrs.
Walker - is Toscanini.
His record as celebrity shepherd
is something to think about. He
takes complete charge of persons
assigned to him. and no one put in
his care has ever been inconvenienced
or mobbed by over Jealous fans.
Bodyguard Walker doesn't de-
pend on muscle and force in his
job. His height: five-foot- five,
weight: 1856. - JEROME DRElFUss

If the District of Columbia is as
fortunate in bird way this Christmas
time as it was last the evening gros-
beakS will come from the Far West to
visit us agar.
All in all, Washington is set for the
biggest bird winter in its history. 1t
has thriving Audubon Society and
thousands of persons who feed and
love the birds.
Any one who wants to join them
may do so by putting out sunfiower
seed at regular intervals, either on
the ground, on the porch or in some
elevated box or table.
4 A mixture of seeds commonly known
! as wild bird feed does very nicely.
Chunks of beef suet may be nailed to
trees or put in small baskets.
There is nothing hard or compli-
Gated about being interested in bird
life. Birds were among the first
things seen in America by the google
eyed invaders from the Old World.
Birds are today great living link

Winter Ha'
BY CHARLES {. TRACeWELL
IF YOU ARE one who thinks there
are nothing but English sparrows
and starlings around Washington in
the winter, here is good news for
you.
Seventy species may be seen
here in the cold months by those
who take little trouble and spend
a little money to lure the frosty
beauties.
Many of these can be seen in the
city and all of them in the suburban
sections. 1t is not for nothing that
the National Capital long has held
top-hight position in the bird world.
1t is possible for almost any person
with a little determination and bit
OF imagination to have breakfast
guests at his window from now on
until spring.
The amazing fact Is that with birds
which remain here all winter, and
those which come here from the
North finding this their true South,

House TraiIers For Student Vet
Grams Will Be Set Up On
Campus This Spring
Eleventh Unit Allocated To Col
lege Will Be Used As Wash
And Shower House

Ten house trailers have been as
signed to Bluffton college by the
Federal Housing Authority as tenn
porary family dwelling units for
student veterans, it was announced
this week by President l.. L. Ram
seyer, of the college.
1t is expected that the trailers will
be received here about June l, to-
gether with an. 18th unit which serves
as toilet, wash house and shower
room.
College authorities will set up the
trailers south of the football field,
next to the two prefabricated houses
now under construction.
Assignment of the IL units to
Bluffton was made possible thru re-
cent federal legislation authorizing
additional funds for the veterans
temporary housing program.
Cooperative Program
The program is cooperative one
in which the government will move,
convert and re-erect the housing trail
ers on sites provided and prepared
by the college.
Responsibility for managing the
project as long as the housing is
needed by veterans will be in the
hands of local college authorities.
None of the 10 housing units will
have running water or toilet facili-
ties, with the 18th trailer serving

two families are housed in re-
converted projects building.
Following arrival of the trailers,
the local college will have facilities
for Is veterans families, as at least
partial answer to the effect on the
school of the towns critical housing
shortage.
