Horseback ~
Prize Contribution
BY Corol Scott, 9
Takomo Elementary School


My older sister and my mother
and I went horseback riding. It
was Jeans and my first lesson.
We rented our horses near the
Abraham Lincoln Memorial. My
horse was brown and white and
his name was Duke. My mother
rode a mare. Our teacher was
a young woman.
First We rode on a bride path
along the Potomac River. We
turned north along Rock Creek.
The teacher taught us how to
post. Post means to go up and
down when a horse is trotting.
Posting in the beginning is hard
and uncomfortable, but after a
while it is easy and comfortable.
Our teacher was very kind and
we learned lot. We trotted some
of the time and walked some of
the time. Along the Rock Greek
path some patches were muddy
but other places were very beau
tiful.
On the bride path we passed
many riders. We saw one little
girl about years old riding with
her father.
When we got off the horse, the
first few steps were hard to walk,
I had two red spots on the in
side and a little below my knees
where I gripped the saddle when
posting.

mentioned favorably in the writ
ings of the Greek philosopher
Aristotle, has grown rapidly. Along
with Judith Anderson, 10, of 496
Lanark way, Silver Spring, she re-
Gently produced "Hansel and
Gretel" with her own puppet show
at the Four Corners Fall Festival.
Gretchen's small, portable thea
ter now consists of eight "stock"
figures, a stage and screen behind
Which she stands during perform
ances, various props" and several
backdrops. AS Gretchen special
ICES in fairy tales, her puppets
were obtained with the thought in
mind that they could be used in
all such playa fairy, a witch,
and the like. She makes her own
props such as furniture out of
cardboard. AS to the backdrops,
used to identify the general loca-
ition of the scenes, such as a forest,
Gretchen draws her own with
crayon. However, her other hobby
is painting, and she intends to use
oils in the future.
The marionnettes have become
sort of family affair in her home
at 407 Gilmoure drive, Silver
Spring. Both her parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. O. E. Loeser, assist in the
act. Mr.. Loeser helps in setting
up the show and Mrs. Loeser's part
in the production is holding one
of the puppets in place whenever
Gretchen is called upon to move
two of the. figures at the same
time. In addition to all this, Gret-
chen furnishes two of the voices
of her small actors.
Gretchen is a student at Four
Corners Elementary School. Dur
ing her next performance, as she
pulls the strings which make the
little wooden figures come to life,
her satisfaction may be increased
when she thinks of some long
forgotten entertainer playing be-
fore an audience in Athens, who
felt the same as she.

Description of Music
Price Hn~txsbut;o~

By Mary Veosey, IS
Bethesda Chevy Chose Elementary School
While temples crumble and turn
to dust,
While paintings crack and bridge
spans rust, ii
And flowers wilt and Rome decays,
Music shall live to see future days.
Though music is old it fails to
age.
From notes set on a timesworn
page
An ancient song is played again,
And life returns to an old refrain.
Music tells of the old and the
young.
Music's a language of every mans
tongue.
A song of the people music sings
Until the death eternity brings.

the big boats can go under it, and
it is two and one-half miles long.
I saw Spanish moss hanging from

death and covers them.

Fla. There I saw coconut palms,
but no coconuts fell on my head.
saw banana palms but there
were no bananas on them. At Day.

they have motorcycle and car
races.
At st. Augustine, Fla, the old
est city in the United States, I
drank from the Fountain of
Youth. Nearby, I visited an old
Indian burial ground, and saw
the oldest schoolhouse in the
United States. I visited an old fort
that was used many years ago.
There is water around the walls
and bridge to take up when the
enemy came to fight them. There
are old cannons there which they
used.
On my trip I liked seeing the

Just Between
Ourselves
BY Philip H. Love.

If you have an idea that you
really believe in, don't let the
criticism of your friends discour-
age you.
That's the lesson Gus Arriola
has learned from "Gordo," the
daily and Sunday comic which he
draws for The Star and about SO
other newspapers.
Mr.. Arriola created Gordo in his
spare time, while working In the
animated cartoon department of
the Metro Goldwyn-Ma movie
studios in Hollywood. He showed
the comic to his fellow workers,
but they saw little, if any, merit
in it.
Nevertheless, Mr.. Arriola packed
his samples and went to New
York to make the rounds of the
syndicates. After only five days
there, he returned to Los Angeles.
convinced that his comic was a
failure. The "I-told-you-so" at
titude of his colleagues at MGM
didn't make him feel any better.
At the Office of the United Fea-
ture Syndicate, Mr.. Arriola had
shown his samples to the manag-
ing editor. William Laas. The lat
ter had finally suggested that they
be left for examination by George
Carlin, the general manager.
Two months passed. Mr.. Arri-
ola had all but forgotten Gordo
when word came that Mr.. Carlin
had decided to accept the comic
for syndication.
During the war. "Gordo Club
sprang up on Saipan-composed of
GIs whose families faithfully sent
them clippings of the strip. And
a B-24 on bombing runs over
Germany was named the "Dorty
Treek" and carried a picture of
Gordo as its insigne.
Neither Mr.. Arriola nor the syn
dicate realized the extent of the
comics leadership, however, until
!Gordo offered to send his family's
secret recipe for beans weeth
cheese" to any one requesting it.
Within three days, the newspapers
carrying the strip had received
more than $4,000 requests.
Here is Mr.. Arriola's life story,
as told by Gordo:
"Hey, amigos! You know what
happen 81 years ago cen leetle
town of Florence, Ariz.? Gustavo
Montana de Arriola. he was born.
when he was about seek years
oil he look sometheeng like my
little nephew, Pepito. An he used
to play cen the hot sun all day.
He was C1ch leetle ponk that
hees fa(nly deedn't mees heem
when hk don't come home, so he
have raenty of time to walk |
around and observe.
"rhen one day. when he was
8 years old, hees brothers and
seesters an hees papa, Aquiles
Arriola, a merchant, all come to
Los Angeles to leev. Here Gustavo
Montana de Arriola was jus plain
Gus.
"Don Aquiles would tell 1eetle |
Gus stories about hees gram
fathers hacienda and the people |
Of Mexico and the pretty gorls. |
So when he grow up he study how
to draw in a high school so that
he can depeect all thees roman
teec an colorful ideas what was
cen hees sun baked head all thees
years. -s
80 me, myself, Gordo, was
born. The word Gordo cen Span
eesh means fat. That ees leetle
joke Gus makes, because myself I
am not really fat. Only fill out a
1eetle.
"Oh. I almos' forgot. Because
of me, Gordo, Gus has been COM
plimented by Pan American peo-
