RETURNED FROM
VACATION

Last Wednesday evening,
Mr.. and Mrs. Ralph Phil, their
daughter, Mrs. Everett Cong
don, and her three children,
Ardsley, LeAnna and Gary, re-
turned from a winter vacation
in Florida. They made their
headquarters at Fort Lauder
dale.
One of their many side trips
was to Key West, over the new
highway and bridges complet-
ed during the last war.
They also went deep sea fish
ing and while trolling, all we're
thrilled, especially the chill
dren, when a sail fish was
hooked on each of the four
lines. All fish were brought in
after the lines had been I'M
twisted and it developed that
Ardsley's sail fish measured 46
inches. So Grandpa Phil a.
greed to have it mounted as a
trophy for his grandson. Many
other varieties of fish were
caught and then fillet of fish
was ready for the deep freeze.
Everette delighted his wife
and children when he flew
down on Thursday and stayed
until Sunday forenoon. He
brought some of the fillet of
fish back with him on the
plane, and the balance was
shipped home.
On the drive down and back,
Mr.. Phil entertained his pas
sengers immensely by stopping
at many of the show places.
They were fortunately to be at
Lake Wales, Florida, on a
Sunday and heard the carlton
chimes of the Book Tower.
AS per the usual enjoyment
for the Zion folks in Fort
Lauderdale, Miami, and sur
rounding territory, two pot
lucks were held at the beach at
Fort Lauderadle which were at
tended by most of the Zion
folk in the southern part of Flo
rida.
Ralph reports his koda-
chrome slides came back in
wonderful color. His many
movie exposures have not
come back yet.
They report a remarkable
vacation favored with excel
ent weather.

the same thing all over again with
Just the names of the characters
and the setting slightly changed.
After all the public liked the first
one, so why not a second and a
third?
1t. is like winning a daily double
in that it makes a man think
perhaps the only sensible thing is
to go back, the next day and win
another.
That the f1orses-or the movie
public-may have an altogether
different idea is, well, you can't
keep a movie producer or gambler
from dreaming, can you?
1T is something like this that has
got hold of Producer William Goetz
right now. 1t keeps running
through his head that having maoe
an elegant dividend on "The Naked
CITY," q man should not stop there.
NAKED City" was about Manhattan
which, dramatic as it is, is but one
borough of New York. What about
the Bronx, Queens and Richmond?
Are the people of these so insult
ferably dull as to be of no use to MIR.
GoetZ?
Mr.. Goetz is inclined to think not,
q notion that probably is shared by
the inhabitants of the Bronx,
Queens and Richmond. OF course,
there is the difference between them
and the Manhattanites of Naked
City," that the latter had the late
Mark Hellinger write about them.
That the Bronx, Queens and Rich
mond have no writer's who feel as
passionately about them does not
mean that no such writers exist,
Certainly Mr.. Goetz is not putting
1t past himself to find such authors,
Bronxmen, Queensmen and Rich
mondites who can strip their bor-
oughs to their naked dreams, II not
as well as Hellinger did Manhattan,
at least as well as they deserve.
It is just an idea, Of course, but
It has possibilities.
If 1t works, some other producer
might try the same thing for Wash
ington. It is divided into one more
part than Gaul, if one or two less
than New York. There is quite a
surface difference between them, at
least between the northwest one
with its Federal triangle and the
others which do not have Federal
triangles.
Who knows what writers with the
energy, affection and eloquence of
Hellinger might not find If they
started digging down to the naked
drama of the northeast, southeast,
southwest and northwest?
Whoever does might get In touch
with Mr.. GoetZ.
AS serials go, what have Andy,
Maisie and Doc Kildare to compare
with the 1urid potential Of bor-
oughs or bits OF cities?
Mr.. Goetz may be just the man
to learn this, in which case he will
be glad to pass it along TO the
movie public.

you require sharpness and crisp

fort dressing, add ia cup crumbled

made with or without catsup.
In serving salads, remember that
they will be more tasty if all the
ingredients are thoroughly chilled.
It's also good idea to chill the
plates or bowls in which salads are
served. Lettuce should be washed
and dried carefully to prevent brqis-
ing the leaves. Shake the lettuce
in a sugar bag for perfect drying.

Wooden Water Pipes

Early water piping of England
consisted of bored logs. First sue
cessful water system there was
built of logs in 1909. First cast iron
mains used in London were con-
structed in 1774, and during this
time, the little piping found inside
the houses was of lead Colonists
in North America were laying wa
ter pipes made from bored logs in
Boston in 100 and in Schaeffers-
town, Pa, in 1882. In 1852 the first
pressure system with pumps was
built in Bethlehem, Pa. Bored logs
still were used for mains and lead
for house piping. In ITO New
York City began to duplicate this
system.
