The early French explorers, CIV
ing the Indian pronunciation a
Gallo twist. called it Ouis-con- sin
|-"the gathering Of the waters" +"
An apt name, but modern day
Wisconsin, for all its $3.50 lakes,
is much more than that. AS any
one who has seen a Wisconsin
automobile tag knows. It's "the
Nations Dairyland."
And as any one who has visited
the State knows. it's also one Of
the country's most beautiful va
cation lands.
It's a land Of rolling meadows
and sparkling lakes, Of ultra-sci-
entif1c dairy farming and virgin
pines, Of cherry trees and can
yons, of cheese and beer.
I spent nine days touring the
Badger State recently. covering
more than 1900 miles with travel
editors from a score of other
paper. My own conclusion: It's
breathtakingly beautiful: II you
want to see America first, Wis
consin Is q good place to start.
Variety Enough.
There's variety to suit virtually
all vacation tastes-and pocket
books. You can stay in a rustic
log cabin for $25 O. week or in a
swank hotel for $25 o day.
The metropolis Is, Of course,
Milwaukee, 18th largest city in
the United States, which hugs the
shores of Lake Michigan some
20 miles north of Chicago. A
major market, Milwaukee also is
famous for It's beer-or have you
heard?
The State itself is divided,
more or less roughly, into two
major areas-the southern dairy
ing half, with its miles upon miles
of clean, picture bright meadows,
and the northern wooded areas,
devoted almost exclusively to the
resort trade.
With its 4 million cattle, more
than its human population, Wis
consin rightfully boasts itself the
Nations dairy capital. Half the
country'S cheese and 10 per cent
Of its butter comes from Wis
consin.
But it Is not statistics which
strike the first time visitor. It's
the sharp, natural beauty of the
dairyland countryside. For some
reason, trees seem greener,
meadows smoother and brooks
brighter in Wisconsin.
In Clear Relief.
Most striking of all, there ap-
pears to be no such thing as
weeds or underbruSh In the dairy
country. Barns, farmhouses and
wooded hills stand out in clear
refief against the broad skies, as
clear and colorful as Grandma
Moses painting.
Most of the resorts in the
southern areas have a gay, coun-
try-club atmosphere, offering fish,
ing, swimming, horseback riding
and other summer sports, besides
bobsledding and skiing In the
winter. The real vacationland,
however, is the northern part Of
the State.

with all modern conveniences,
there are dozens Of places sure to

tria.
The courtly splendor of me-
dieval Europe is reflected in the
group. Napoleon-coated and
dragon booted, the "oberriters'
and their mounts have suffered
little from the effects of moderni-
zation. The most spectacular OF
the many feats performed will be
the capriole, in which the stallion
with his rider aboard executes a
mighty leap. To the Lipizzan this
is what the running broad jump
plus the high jump is to the track
star. The capriole requires
extraordinary strength, inteili-
gence and lengthy specialized
training. Few horses in the world
can perform it. Many of the feats
which the Lipizzaners will per-
form, SO far as is known, never
have been performed by any
trained horse or rider in this
country.
While on this continent the
group will also exhibit at the

Ala. Segregation
Holds Fast In Sen.
Tay|or's Case

Montgomery, Ala-The Alabama
Court of Appeals upheld the $50
fine and 180-day Jail sentenc,
given to Senator Glen Taylor Tues.
day. Sen. Taylor, Dem. Idahol
was running mate Of Henry
Wallace for the vice presidency on
the Progressive ticket in l948.
Senator Taylor had an alterca.
ton in Birmingham when he was
slaled to address a meeting of the
Sou. Youth conference there in
the summer of '48. On orders o.
city officials, it is said that all
meeting places scheduled for the
conference meeting were closed to
Taylor after threats of bodily harm
70 those in charge. One young min
lister in the city of Birmingham re-
fused to be inundated and opened
his church for the TAYLOR engage
ment, drew considerable fire from
the city commission and a Gordon
of police officers were thrown a.
round his church enforcing rigid
segregation to show contempt for
Taylor's presence. A city ordinance
was Immediately enforced desig.
mating certain doors for white and
colored to enter the church. Tay-
lor refused to be intimidated by
Alabama officials, and was arrest
ed, manhandled, jailed, threatened,
fined and sentenced.
Taylor appealed the conviction
on the grounds that the segrega-
ton law was unconstitutional. The
court refused to enter into the is
sue of constitutionallty of the seq
regation law, but upheld the con-
viction of the lower court on the
grounds that Taylor failed TO
show there was anything wrong
with the city of Birmingham's
complaint against him.

Gets Off To A Good
Start But In The
Wrong Direction

Getting off to a good start for
1850 was soon retarded when
Detectives Dillbeck and Terrell
intercepted Joe Atkins, about 20,
of 1905 South Elm, during the wee
hours of Saturday morning at
Ninth and Gaines.
Atkins was in possession of a
al Colt revolver when apprehend-
ed by the officers. When asked to
give an account Of his activities,
Atkins convinced the officers that
he had had a very busy week des-
pite the inclement weather
Chief among his activities, which
he was more or less able TO prove
with concrete evidence, was the
Colt revolver which he had taken
in one of his "break-ins'. He adj
mitted going in a business estab-
lishment at Eight and Chester
streets of his own accord. He also
helped himself at the Blue Goose
Drive In at Eight and Chester
to two bottles of beer Further
proof that he was no piker, he ex-
planned how he entered an auto
mobile at the Sam Peck Hotel
and outfitted himself with an over
coat, suit, brown leather jacket, a
tweed loafer jacket and a camera.
Next on his list was the Apex
Laundry where he added to his
wearing appearels and luxury.
There he added a brown suit,
blue striped suit, a corduroy jacket
and Phileo radio.
The Taking habit had became
good business to Atkins by this
time, and it was considered not
good to stop any thing that is good
so he entered the Rosebud Clean
ers at 9th and Gaines and assured
himself of sufficient wearing APP
naarIc for the season hv adding IN
his suits. A shot gun and an auto
mobile radio were the next items
of interest TO Mr.. Atkins, these
were obtained at the johnson
Service station. Messrs. Dilbeek
and Terrell intercepted Mr.. At
kins and cut short his 1850 activi-
ties before he could get an automo-
bile to fit his radio.
