While finishing in the Univer-
sity in 1916, Steele lived in a
shaky doll house in Mrs. Kate
Porter Lewis's yard in West
wood. ''The bureau drawers held
one shirt each. l felt like a Gull
liver stomping around In the
place." When he returned here
to finish "Debby" Steele lived in
an old slave house of Mrs. F. E.
Coenen's.
Chapel Hill and the Univer-
sity have always figured impor-
tantly in Max's life. He had al
ways wanted to come here for
his last two years of college, es-
pecially since the University had
journalism and English depart
ments. For a long while be
couldn't decide which Of these
fields to major in. He was an ex-
perienced collegiate Journalist,
having written humor columns
for Greenyille, S. c., high
school paper and for the Furman
University weekly paper. He at
tended Furman for two years.
Max came here in 1912 to
major In English. While here he
wrote two one-act plays, neither
Of which he Is enthusiastic
about. He entered tho Army In
1043 and was sent to Vanderbilt
University as a metcorology
cadet. The professor Of the Eng
lish class for which he wrote
weekly essays was impressed by
his work, so he sent one Of his
essays TO Harper's Magazine.
The magazine liked his work
and told him to send some
stories. His transfer to UCLA
halted his writing for time,
but he sent in the first story he
had time to do, and II was ac-
cepted. Since then, Harper's,
Cosmopolitan, Atlantic Monthly,
and Golfers have published his
stories.
After finishing his training,
Steele was shipped to Trinidad
where he was supposed to help
track down hurricanes with
radar. There was only one hur-
ricane the whole time we were
there and we read about It In
the newspaper" he says. 'SThe
only thing we picked up was Q
lawnmower with a bad spark
plug on the opposite side Of the
field"
The Army always took a dim
view toward his writing. While
he was training at q Western
Army post, he had to hide his
typewriter In his foot locker
during the weekly inspections.
To make room for It, he had to
stuff his pockets with the socks
and underwear which II had sup
planted. He smugGIed the type

but fortunately a teletype opera

Steele intended to invest his
$4,000 prize money in a home
in Chapel Hill, but the local real
estate prices have him stymied.
He intends to hang around, any
how. So, it looks as il the local

Dear Editor:
There is a proven method OF
checking up on water bills that
has been used in the commun-
ity in the past. That is the
method used in checking up on
the Mission Road Pumping
Service the former partnership
of Mr.. John Hughes and Mr..
John Gibbons where the rec
ords of the KEA were used.
1t is my suggestion that the

wrong entries made on this
account.

of President, that the office
requires. It is my desire, that
