sity was particularly his.
Il remember a long, skinny
law student who quit law school
and went to the First Officers
Training Camp at Leon Springs,
Texas. There was poison oak all
over the hills around Leon
Springs. The training schedule
called for an astonishing amount
of maneuvering on a rockies
hands and knees. 1t is prac-
tically perfect way to get cov-
cred with poisoning from the
roots of a rockies scalp to the
soles of his feet.
We'll, one hot July afternoon,

cot in the sick ward at Leon

hands at about two square
yards of swollen, burning, poison
welts-when in walked War

Before the sun was down

more than a thousand of them

1T is certain that DIR. Battle
will face his retirement years
as a challenge to make them the
best and most fruitful of his
life. He always had a surpris-
ing amount of steam. 1t is a
safe bet that he will proceed
from alpha to omega according
to plan"
THE University of Texas has
been blessed with good and
great and loyal servants. It is
the sum of these plus the homes
and zest of the thousands of
young hearts who come within
its warmth and beat to its in
spiration. Not the least of these
servants is William ]. Battle,
scholar, gentleman and top
fight fighting man."

Paintings that were lent to the
University for display in one of
its art galleries, few weeks ago,
bore labels saying that they had
been loaned by such-and-such
persons. Mrs. Clarence A. Shore
Of Raleigh Wrote me a letter de-
ploring the use of loaned" in
place of "lent," and asked me
Cant you do something about
it"' Well, yes, can do little
something: call the University's
attention TO the matter. ! do this
with a good will because / have
always disliked loan" as verb.
To make sure of what was the
best practice in labelling loans to
art galleries, wrote letter of
inquiry to the director of the
Metropolitan Museum of Art in
New York. The prompt reply
was that the Metropolitan used
the form, Lent by,"
in labelling pictures lent to it.
This accords with the advice
from the dictionaries. They do
not put an absolute ban upon
loan as verb, and they give
citations of it's use, but they de-
clare it poor second to lend.
! learn this from looking the
two words up in the Oxford
English Dictionary, the Century,
the Standard, and Webster's.
And Fowler's Modern English
Usage" says that "the verb,
loan was expelled from idioma-
tic English by lend, but was
formerly current and survives
in the United States and locally
in Great Britain" This would
give the impression that loan"
was the older, but the O. e. D.
shows that lend" came first.

would you people think Of q rep
ertory of four Chekov one-act
plays with Jose Ferrer?"
Fine" said the critics. "but Of
course, it is your money and Fer
rer's reputation.
But how do you think audi
ences would 60 for such an attrac-
tion," Skinner persisted.
who will ever know unless you
try it?" was the best the critics
could offer.
Ferrer, who was one of Olney's
big boxoff1ce successes last sum-
mer, cannot get the Chekov
repertory out of his head. He
thinks summer drama customers
are ripe for something new, that
enough of them have grown ma
ture that producers can start
weaving them away from boudoir
and drawing room comedy. It is
his idea that eventually Ham
let" will be playing the summer
circuit, in the person Of Jose
Ferrer.
It is the first sign Of the pioneer
spirit that has lifted its head in
the summer theater since Tallu-
lah Bankhead. Just what will
come of it this season at Olney,
no one knows.
Olney's operating plan will be
substantially that of last sum-
mer. That is to say that it will
have basic acting company,
visiting stars. and this time a
permanent director with occa-
sional guests taking over his job.
The director will be Harry
Ellerbe who left shortly after last
years opening to keep a commit
ment with David o. Selznick's all
star stock company at LaJolla,
Calf.
Producers Freyman and Skinner
have done substantially nothing
about the basic Olney company
so far. With virtually 80 per
cent of Equity's members out of
work, they figure there is no haste
on this score They have two key
performers in Mary Macarthur
and Viola Roche, and feel conf
dent the others will come easily.
In one department, however,
they already have a maximum Of
security. This is s. Syrjala who
again will do Olney's settings and
lighting. He Is the best man in
his business, a business in which
any theater Is extremely fortu-
nate to have the best man.
As TO the last play of Olney's
next season, it will have a strong
local flavor what with not only
Miss Hayes, but the author, Will
liam McCleery being an ex-Wash-
ingtonian. Playwright McCleery

some one asked.
"Oh, that" said Skinner. We
haven't the slightest idea. Nor
have we any notion of the other
13 of the first IA weeks. Only the
18th. That will be Helen Hayes
and her daughter. Mary Mac
Arthur, in William McCleery's
Good Housekeeping. 1t is a COM
edy. Miss Hayes owns it. Its week
here will be it's first, prior
to-Broadway production uniting
mother and daughter in what
they hope will be a New York
hit"
Skinner and Miss Freyman, Oh
news coproducers, are so excited
about Olney's last 1949 week, they
have not had time to mediate on
the first ID weeks of the season.
Neither is worried, however. Oh
ney had one of the most success
full seasons on the summer cir
cult last year. It's prestige is such
that it can have its choice OF at
fractions and stars packaged for
hot weather consumption by
drama lovers. 1t might be taken
as an expression of SINNERS con-
fidence that he is of now for
most Of a month in Guatemala
after which he will settle down to
the job of shaping Olney's overall
schedule. =;

because they claim the law only ap-
plies to main lines and not to gather
ing lines, and of course most of their
lines have now become gathering
lines. But that isn't what the law
says. The law applies to all lines
built across government lands and
the Circuit Court held that the leas-
ing act applies to transportation of
gas over every part of the inter-con-
nected pipe line system" The per-
mits given by the Secretary of the
Interior cover the so-called gather
ing lines and they all contain the pro-
vision requiring the company to
carry everyone's gas. This looks
like just another specious argument
to keep the monopoly alive little
longer. There is limit to how long
any Independent can keep on paying
royalties, leases and expenses with
out selling any gas.

The GREATER VOLCA
CANAL PROJECT

Of the many projects started by
the Soviets, the Greater Volga is
the biggest peace-time project.
Strictly speaking, its double-barrel
or two separate undertakings; one
on the lower Volga, the other on its
headwater, four hundred miles apart
as the crow flies.
The Don Volga Canal
1t has long been known that the
Caspian Sea, the Worlds largest in
land sea, is annually shrinking some
and its water becoming more salty.
This was realized by the Tzarist gov
eminent when it started to dig
canal in the vicinity of Stalingrad
where the two rivers, Volga and Don,
come closest together, but given up
on account of mechanical difficulties.
Before World War II, the Soviets
had restarted this work with g.
point objective: 1, connecting both
rivers by ship canal making it pos
sible for boat to go by rivers and
canals all the way from the Black |
Sea, by way of Moscow and Lenin-
grad, to the White Sea and the Arctic
Ocean; 2, by diverting the water of
the Don, wasting itself into the Med
into the Volga river, it
would sweeten the water of the Cas-
plan sea and prevent its shinking;
8, 1t would also make possible good
supply of electric power.
The Upper Volga Project
The upper Volga project is mag
1ified IVA and has for its program:
electric power and flood :
control. 1t was conceived and !,
started long before the late war, in :
act it has been on the Agenda since
he Volga basin drouth and famine
f 1920, when a million people
tarved to death on account of crop t
allure. o
The three large concrete reservoir Il
ans are located on the Volga and q

lillions kilowatts.
