Isn't it too bad that the picture

to remember what his work looked
like"
The next day took some scraps
from my sewing basket and
matched the colors he had used in
his little masterpiece. With my
scissors I cut out & barn, road
and a daisy, keeping them as out
of proportion as my small son had
done. When they were finished, [

of heavy cheesecloth. The finished
picture looked just like Jimmy's
little drawing.
stretched the cheesccloth tight
over Il square of cardboard and
framed the picture. 1t was color
full and mighty cute.
That night / started thinking
about the little picture and de-
cided that 1 would see if l could
copy Il pretty magazine illustra-
ton l had seen. 1t was a lot harder
than copying Jimmy's picture, but
it was more fun. After three or
four easy pictures, I began to
branch out. 1 added clouds, trees,
chickens and a number of things
which appealed to me.
Best of all, it started me obscrv-
ing what made certain pictures
better than others. l learned to ac-
cent certain parts of my pictures
by the use of color and to blend
shades of the same color for at
tractive effects. This was further
supplemented by matching J&P
Coats threads to the different
scraps.

The script, 1t must be noted. Il

foolish affairs based on the prem

adapted from a story by several
other people, is not the sort of
thing to arouse any concern over

around until the time is up.

show how naive Hollywood thinks
we are.
Incidental revelations of this
endless amorous sequence are
that Corey is somewhat = decent
sort in spite of having father
in-law trouble. and that Miss
Stanwyck Is 4 sizzling mystery
girl.
You get the idea, even If Corey
does not. that she is up to some
thing bit more devious than just
having a pair of strong arms to
fall into when living with an
aging, rich Spinster aunt becomes
unbearably lonely. Siodmak in
his direction tries so hard to con-
ceal her motive, however, that
"Thelma Jordon" begins to seem
like a straight documentary film
on the history of philandering be-
fore anything begins to happen.
Near the two-thirds point, how
ever, things do begin to happen.
The old aunt with whom Thelma
is living is shot to death one night
in her drawing room, an emerald
necklace is missing, and the girls
plan to spend a weekend up
north with the young prosecutor
is upset. She puts in quick call
to him for professional advice,
but instead of knowing just how
to handle a situation like this he
turns out to be an innocent
bungler.
Thelma is arrested and accused
of murder but before the regular
D. A. can cook" (his word) her
for the crime, he is side tracked
as prosecutor and the young man
is assigned to the case.
His handling of it is nothing
you will not guess for yourself as
it moves along, but there is an
ethic which says this should not be
revealed in reviews. 1t also saves
space and makes it even more rea-
sonable.
It might turn out, if Miss STAN
wyck cared to follow it up, that
she has a case against Miss Frings
as the author of "Thelma Jor-
DON" The character of Thelma
is surely one of the fuzziest Of the
season, largely the result of the
scripts refusal to admit that the
heroine is a completely bad girl.
Granted that she could kill q
decent old aunt for money, wreck
the young prosecutors marriage,
and that she has been the para
mour Of q swarthy racketeer for
years-despite these errors Miss
Frings insists there is some good
in Thelma.
Miss Stanwyck does not prove it
and 1t is unlikely that any other
actress could either.

A. u. Students
StuQe Musical

The spectacle created by the
battle over unification Of the
armed forces certainly is not
without It's comic aspects and
these have inspired some students
at American University to the
production of an ambitious mu-
Sical comedy. AS is often the case
with amateur and undergraduate
original musicals "P. S., the Butler
Did 1t" Is more ambitious than
expertly polished. It does have
some laughs, lifting score and
it is played with fresh enthusi-
asm that brings it off tolerably
well. Ut will be repeated tonight
and tomorrow night at Clendenin
Auditorium on the A. U. campus.>
The principal creative talent
responsible for "P. S., the Butler
Did It" seems to have been that
Of Michael L. Moore. In the pro-
gram he is listed as the author
Of the book, Of the music Gin col
laboration with Doug Bailey and
Jack French) and Of the lyrics
Tin collaboration with Royce Pow
elD. This is not exactly a one
man proposition, but is a job Of
work in which q student writer
can take pride. Mr.. Moore's plot
is neither more nor less foolish
than the average musical comedy
book melange OF business
about unification, some secret
plans and, Of course, romance.
This is enough for a lot Of under
graduate fun.
The cast, as BELTS such . prof.
ect, Is . large one. Among those
whose contributions are more
noteworthy are Alyce Miller, Alice

STATEHOOD FOR HAWAII SURE IF
 SENATOR'S VOTE

WASHINGTON, Aug. Is = tR = Samuel Wilder King, former dele gate to Congress from Hawaii, said today the Hawaii statehood bill is certain to pass if it reaches Sen- ate vote.
 The President of the Hawaii Con- stitutional Convention told re- porter that a tally of senators, pre- pared by statehood advocates, shows 68 probable votes in favor of the House-passed bill.
 There certainly will not be loss than 58 votes for Hawaiian state hood" he said.
 We count only 28 sure voses against the bill"
 King has spent a week making the rounds of senatorial offices to present certified copies of the pyo- posed Hawaii state constitution drafted at the recent Constitutional Convention.
 Reporting on his progress, King said he had talked up Hawaii state- hood to 37 senators, in addition to visiting Secretary of the Interior Chapman and other administration officials who are supporting the statehood ambitions of both Ha- waii and Alaska.
 King said his discussions with the 37 senators indicated about the same ratio of pros and cons as re- sealed by the nose count" of the entire Senate membership.
 Most of them are for statehood without qualification, some of them have not quite made up their minds, and a few of them are against us," he said.
 The former delegate said some senators are giving serious thought to his argument that permitting the statehood bills to die on the Senate calendar would be capital ized by our enemies.'
 The Communists, he said would make particular use of such action as another example of capitalist imperialism in denying equal op- portunity to territorial peoples.

 Bridges, head of the union for IA years, is being challenged on his connection with the controversial Maritime Federation of the World and his criticism of US. action in Korea.
 His opponents are attempting to force him to resign the union presi- dency.
 Actually, the caucus has not the power to do that. His opponents are attempting. however, to apply pressure on the longshore leader who is in prison at San Francisco after being convicted of lying when he said he never was Communist.

A Fish and Wildlife Service Widgeon aircraft was being lowed to Ketchikan today after being forced down in heavy seas at the entrance to Boca de Quadra, an inlet about 30 miles southeast of Ketchikan, last night.
 A message requesting Coast Guard assistance was received here at 8::3O o'clock last night from Ellis Air Lines in Ketchikan, which had picked up the aircraft's radioed distress call. The message said the aircraft was attempting to make Twin Islands in the inlet and one engine had failed.
 The cutter White Holly was in- structed to proceed from Ketchikan to assist the aircraft A short time later, message was received stat ing that the aircraft was anchored in sheltered waters off Twin Island.
 A FWS patrol boat took the air. craft in tow for Ketchikan while the White Holly stood by, accord ing to Coast Guard headquarters here.
