YONGDONG, Korea, Jan. l.
Misery is lnassed and concen-
trated in this big rail junction,
Korean refugees literally fight for
place on any kind of a train
going south as far from
the massing Chinese Communist
hordes above Parallel 38 as they
can go on this peninsula.
Their goal is the southeastern
port. Pusan.
They swarm here on foot by the
thousands daily, from Seoul. That
capital city already has been evac-
uated of half of its 100000 or
more civilians.
They had terrifying IL weeks
under Red Korean rule last sum-
mer. They fear, even more, rule
by Chinese should the Communists
smash the United Nations defense
I line near Parallel 38.
The refugees camp for days out
side Yongdong's busy rail yard,
waiting to get in. Once inside,
they cannot be driven away. They
climb on any chain of boxcars,
refusing to believe guards who
tell them the train isn't going
south.

said Pfc. James D. Solomon Of
Clermont, Ind.
Eat as They Can.
The refugees-old men, old
women, young men. young women
and many. many children-eat as
best they can. Some have brought
food and cooked it huddled over
small fires by the edge of the
tracks. Others cook rice on top of
the boxcars. Still others forage
in garbage cans and pick up the
scraps dropped by other refugees.
They rip planking from the
boxcars at night for fires to keep
themselves warm. They are so
afraid of losing their places that
they carry small cans with which
to relieve their natural functions.
The whole area is sour with the
odor and is ripe for epidemics.
They strap themselves to the
sides of fatcars, held to perilous
| footholds by slender strands of
rotten rope. They pile their be-
| longings so high that low tun-
mel could sweep them to the
roadbed.
Women and children crowd the
front and sides of locomotives.
The warm steam swirls around
them and vets them. If the train
takes off in bitter cold that mois-
ture freeZes-and when the train
halts there will be frozen dead
to be lifted off.
Refugees wait from one day to
a week before they get train
out. 1t then takes them from
48 to 70 hours in winter weather
to reach Pusan. And for most
of them there is no friendly
warmth waiting-just the un-
friendly welcome of a strange
city.
The Price of Leaving.
That is the price of going away
and yet they want to go. I
went to the heated station where
American soldiers were doing their
best to get the trains out on
schedule. Outside the window

Some one may tell you that you
cant change your face"
The truth is that you can change
your face to quite an extent-even
without plastic surgery. We change
our faces every day, many times
every day.
Let some one take a series OF
pictures of your during the course
of day-preferably with q can
did camera and fiashlfght-and
you will see what mean. I am
supposing that the photographer
will know his work, and will catch
your changing expressions. When
the pictures are printed, you are
likely to see yourself in several
moods.
If a person feels pleased. his face
tends to light up with smile. When
he is in pain, his look is different.
Sadness, anger, worry and sur
prise also give different "looks" to
the face. In one day we may 60
through many stages Of feeling, and
series of photographs will show
us that we can-and do-change
our faces.
It is a fact, however, that the
face gives a clear way to identify a
person. In q city of 100000, all
except a few (perhaps dozen will
look different from one another.

South's pass over the five-dia-
mond bid was Of course a forcing
pass, since South had opened orig
inally with a two-bid. 1t is ex-
tremely dubious that North should
have decided to carry on to five
spades on the mere strength of his
speed queen penalty double
seems to fit the situation better
but it must be conceded that Norths
action was much more profitable.
AS a matter of fact, East thought
for a long time about bidding six
diamonds as sacrifice, but he
decided that, with his partner bid
ding hearts and clubs, there might
be a good chance to defeat the
five-spade contract.
West opened the heart queen,
and when the dummy appeared,
declarer was able to visualize the
opponents holdings almost down to
the last card. He was sure about
one thing: West had no diamonds

had a singleton, he would have
been very glad to lead it. The only
thing that really worried South was
whether East had one or two
spades.
At the second trick South caShed
the trump ace, then, since his over
all plan hinged on cashing the
second heart honor before going to
dummy'S spade queen, he had to
risk the immediate lead of that
second heart.
When East could not ruff the
trick, South was as good as home.
He led trump to the queen, then
led and passed a heart to West,
discarding a diamond from the
closed hand. This was one trick
for West, and he won another on
his heart continuation, since South
simply discarded his last diamond,
but now West was through. The
lead of still another heart would
give South a ruff in dummy and
a club discard in his own hand,
while a shift to clubs by West
would go right up to South's major
tenace.

College Girls Cavalry

BY Mary Lou Werner

Originally. the organization
was a riding club. During
World War II, when the col
lege president, DR.. Morgan
Combs, urged each campus
group to take up some civil
defense work, the riders
formed the cavalry for police
assistance. After the war, the
club reverted to a social
organization for riders.
when I talked to local
officials about reorganizing
the group into an auxiliary
police unit, they jumped at
the idea," said Russell Walter.

At GrossIonds Farm Operation

er. DR.. Cumming is out in his
fields at all hours.
Does he break even on his oper-
Iations?

strain myself from going in for
more barns, other farm buildings,

No Previous Experience.
Long before his retirement, he
decided a farm might be more fun
as an outlet than gold. His wife,
who is the daughter of the late
William K. Sullivan, part owner
and managing editor of the Chi
cago Journal, agreed with him.
Without previous farming ex-
perience, they had met at the
University of Michigan, they
bought a 100-acre farm overlook
ing the Potomac about 21a miles
from Marshall Hall, in what had
been part of the old Glymont
tract. They were greatly enjoy
ing its development when the
Government took it over Undis-
mayed, they transferred their
Operations to their present loca-
ton, which particularly intrigued
DR.. Cumming because its worn
Iout land promised a challenge.
They have built a modern, OIL
heated home on the site of the
tumble-down farmhouse. They
have introduced many up-to-the-
minute features. Among them is
IA heatilator installed in the brick
fireplace of the pine-paneled liv-
ing room. An electric pump, oper-
ating a well 180 feet deep, gives
an inexhaustible supply of water.
Mrs. Cumming, with rare
adaptability. not only shares her
husbands enjoyment of life in the
country but by means of her deep
freeze, she is invariably prepared
for foot-loose friends. Her sup

LIS HAND flashed for the gun
i at his hip even as he left the
saddle, but the long robe covered
it and he could not reach it. He
heard a harsh voice call, Hold
him, boyp and felt the rope tauf-
en- as the horse backed away. The
fall had twisted the robe and ne
could see through the SHIT with
only one eye, but that was enough
to give him the picture. Cliff Dur
ham had been waiting in the
shadow of the barn, had seen him
approach in the starlight and had
roped him rs he rode by. As easy
as that.
His arms were pinned to has
sides; he heaved himself forward
in an effort to gain enough slack
to permit him to lift the robe and
get his gun, and he heard Clih
ven, Back, boy, Backr' and once
more the rope frightened as the
horse moved deeper into the shad-
ow of the barn. Brent kept
thrusting forward because there
wasn't anything else he could do
and the horse kept backing away,
taking up the slack as fast as he
made it.
Cliff was moving along the rope
at a crouching trot, his gun CLINT
ing, but the black hood was an
indistinct blur against the ground
and he could not be sure of his
target. Brent gave another heave
forward and once more the rope
went slack. Cliff yelled again,
Back, boyp but this time there
came a bump and the horse gave
a squeal as it backed into the
rear of the barn. 1t had gone as
far as it could. ~
Cliff bent and snatched up the
rope, taking up the slack him
self. Brent dropped to his knees
and snatched the rope himself.
He got up quickly and leaned
back, digging in with his heels,
and Cliff was pulled violently
forward. He stumbled and Brent
gathered in few feet of slack
before Durham regained his feet.
Once more the marshal leaned
back on the rope. He swore
viciously, grated. Just for that
I'll blast you clean outa that
nightgown you're WARM Clutch
ing the rope with his left hand,
he put all his weight upon it and
the barrel of the Colt arced
through the air and steadied.
Brent let go the rope and
leaped, trying to close with Cliff
before he could get in Gripping
shot: and as the rope went slack
Cliff fell backwards and hit the
earth so hard that the gun he had
cooked exploded. Brent heard the
bullet cut the air over his head
then landed SPRAYING atop Dur
ham.

His partner had concealed him

believed he was on hot trail.
He asked Brent to meet him in
Juniper.
Brent had gone to Juniper, but
Cole had not appeared. At the
end of week he set out for Des-
tiny. There he had heard two men
talking about the mysterious
murder of Slim Cole. They were
wondering about it because Slim
had no enemies that they knew of
and his money had not been
taken. Now il was up to Brent to
find the murderer.
