The whole joint was neat as a
pin. And Darcy stood near the
stove in the kitchenette, frying
things. She even had an apron
on. l stared. 1t was funny to see
Darcy with an apron on.
l said: Il never saw you with
an apron on, Darcy. You've got
it on backwards but it looks very
nice just the same"
She just nodded. A coffee per-
colator sizzled. The table was
set for two. She pointed spat-
ula at the fireplace mantel and
her face told me nothing when
she said: 'Your manuscripts
there. I've finished digesting ii"

wasn't destroyed. 1t wasn't even
smudged. Just then the tele-
phone rang and her voice wasn't
at all muffled as she said: mo,
Ican't, Curt. I'm busy. From
here in, work Office hours only.
If that doesn't suit -"
When she hung up, l said:
''Is this all a gag?"
She walked back to the stove
and stirred things with very
cookly motions. She said, with
her eyes on the frying pan: 1T
was all true, Mike, in that manu-
script. And - well - you were
in South America an awful long
time, it seemed to me. l don't
want you going back there. l.
l missed you"
l was still holding my manu-
script. l looked down at it, and
saw. suddenly. that it wasn't
valid any more. She'd destroyed
the truth in it because what it
had to say about Career Girls
was only true until they missed
somebody. Then they were just
like other girls.
L THREW the manuscript in the
fire. 1t burned fine. She walked
over with the spatula in her
hand and some -four on her nose.
She said:
kiss me, Mike"

phone started to ring again.

Not the same old story. Because

l suppose you can guess what
followed - although / didn't, of
course. In the next three weeks,
we became such a glued-together
'twosome that even the cautious
columns went out on a limb and
said we were definitely Thatta-
way. And my brushing-up on
Darcy was so thorough that
wrote an article which proved,
positively, that she and her ilk
were bunch that no man in his
right mind would marry into.
Only one little gimmick devel-
oped: l was back at the same old
peanut stand, wanting to marry
her.
The magazine was demanding
the article. l stalled. l had it
finished but hated to turn it in,
knowing it would seal my doom
with Darcy. l kept going to the
office, taking revisions. l knew
I'd have to show it to her first,
come clean on how our romantic
rebuilding had started.
BECAUSE when it was pub
lished, her friends would recog-
nize her easily and see what I'd
been up to all these weeks. She
would not like that one bit. Still
- and call it artistic integrity
If you want O. as long as it
was all true, had to see it
through.
l avoided her, postponing the
ordeal. Lunching together had
become habit but now - sud-
denly - Id disappear from my
office by eleven and not return
until two. Then, one day when l
came back. the receptionist said
Darcy had been waiting in my
office for me and had left a note.
That was the final crusher,
that note. 1t said: Mike, you
shouldn't leave manuscripts
loaded with dynamite on your
desk. I've taken it along to
finish reading it. If you want it
back come and get it,"
My only hope had been that
my being honest about it, con-
Tossing all, would remove some
of the sting. Now that hope was
gone. If l knew Darcy, my goose
was cooked.

Lack Of Housing, Discrimination
BY Civilians Lead Novy|s Gripes

Is ships and six shore stations to
interview 482 men of all ratings, in
cluding seamen, WAVES and petty
officers attached to East Coast and
Great Lakes shore stations and ves-
sells of the Atlantic Fleet.
Msgr Sheehy concluded that
men of the Navy are profoundly
influenced by the attitude of United
States civilians toward men ir
sailors uniform. The tradition that
the sailor is an amorous bum has
been largely dissipated.
Discrimination Protested.
Nevertheless, at a time when
racial segregation and civil rights
are receiving much attention, many
civilians give the impression that
men in uniform are socially inferior.
This is especially true of cities where
the Navy has large installations.
only 80 per cent of the men felt
that sailors were treated fairly in
the communities where they were
at present stationed. Some COM
planned bitterly at the social dis
elimination Of civilians against the
wives Of enlisted personnel. Of the
men interviewed, 80 per cent felt
that the uniform made the enlisted
men inferior to civilians. 80 per cent
equal and 5 per cent that it made
them superior.
Despite this finding, he added,
Evening star., 1948-10-21

The difficulty and high cost OF
obtaining housing at their shore
stations was the principal complaint
of Navy enlisted men questioned in
a recent morale survey.
Another "gripe" high on the list
was the superior" attitude of certain
civilians toward enlisted men and
their wives, according to a prelimi-
nary report by a Washington edu-
Gator requested by Admiral Louis E
Denfeld, chief of naval operations.
Determined to get cross-section
of opinion on personal problems OF
Iservicemen direct from the source
Admiral Denfeld asked a former
wartime Navy chaplain. Msgr. Maui
rice S. Sheehy of Catholic Univer-
sity, to make the sample survey and
pass up regulation channels by re-
porting the result to him.
Admiral Denfeld termed the move
a mutual educational plan" for the
ranks and high command. The ad-
miral plans a much broader, con-
tinuing system for sampling the
Opinions of the men, coupled with an
internal relations program to help
make the Navy "as happy a place
for the individual as possible"
Enlisted Men Bitter"
Mgsr. Cheeky reported that bit
ter" feeling persisted among en-
listed men that communities to
which they were assigned ashore
were inclined to treat them as in
feriors"
Part of this was due to the fact
hat in Washington and throughout
the country enlisted men felt that
housing intended for them had been
turned over to civilians after the
war. The result in some cases was
that petty officers were compelled to
put up half their pay for "one-room
apartments or hovels.'

mean that Rope" Is Hltchcock'S S
best screenplay. 1t is merely a
good enough melodrama which
nevertheless suggests that it might
have been better II the director had
been less interested in method, or
technique, and more interested In
story material.
Any Hitchcock, Of course, is rec
ommendable and this is certainly
true Of Rope" whose corking cast
is headed by James Stewart, John
Dali, Farley Granger and Sir Cedric
Hardwicke.
Rope" which is shot in straight
chronological line, as il 1t were a
stage play, is of much the same
dimensions as the latter. That is
to say, It's continuous action is
limited to a New York apartment,
and almost entirely to the living
room Of that establishment.
The famous Leopold-Loeb case
of the '20s is the obvious inspiration
of the Patrick Hamilton play, of
which HitchcocH screen drama is
and adaptation. 1t starts at level
of suspense that is remarkably high
and climbs rather constantly with
only enough changes in mood to
keep the maximum tension bearable.
Like the Chicago thrill killers,
"Rope's" murderous pair fancy
themselves above the moral law
which governs average humans. In
the lavender intellectual world they
have created for themselves, mur-
der is a permissible exercise of su-
penority. 1t represents an exciting
test not merely of their wits, but of
their exemption from the conscience
of mere mortals.

The hombres in the old West
were not all bad. Nor were gum
play and poker the only games they
knew.
In the same saloons where this
type drank and in the mountain
passes where it murdered and pill
llaged, there were tough, decent,
witty men who were a match for
anybody without drawing gun.
This pleasant intelligence is dis
closed in -Four Faces West" new
Aim feature at the Metropolitan
which Is 80 much the dramatic
superior of most westerns that
smart producers henceforth will
throw their six-guns into the Pa
cific.
Oddly enough, Harry Sherman
whose actors have used up enough
ammunition to win a half dozen
small revolutions, is the producer
of -Four Faces West" Through
happy circumstance, however, he
ran across Eugene Manlove Rhodes
novel, "Paso Por Aqui" (Those
Who Pass This Way. It gave him
narrative in which character is
the dominant element, and one
which makes a quite agreeable
screenplay.
Joel McCrea's is the top face
among the four In the pictures
title. Behind it turks q nature bold,
daring, resourceful and brave
enough even to be tender when the
occasion demands. He enters the
picture amiably holding up bank,
but with the difference that he
leaves an lou signed Jefferson
Davis"
The other faces become quickly
involved in his life. One is that Of
Frances Dee, a nurse who falls in
love with him but wishes she knew
more about him. Another is that
of Charles Bickford, as q progress
sive, altruistic, philosophic United
States Marshal who has to start
hunting down all bandits, even the
more decent. The final face belongs
to Joseph Calleia who enters the
dramatic tangle as a wise Mexican
gambling house proprietor who
knows moral bandit when he sees
one, and who has q vast admiration
for the type.
There is not much incident in
-Four Faces West" not enough to
keep it entirely from representing
another six-reel horseback ride, but
everybody is so agreeable and
charming that one can't help lik-
! ing them all. Moreover, all are suf-
ficiently given to drollery that you
feel the old West has been maligned
by that excess Of gunplay in those
Randolph Scott things. JIG.
