called little 6-year-old girl to the
microphone, and asked: No
answer Followed in rapid sue
cession more questions: How old
are you? Where do you live? Can
you sing? Do you like candy?"
etcetera Still no answer
The announcer became irritated
and asked: why don't you say
something Whereupon the

OFFICIALDOM IN COPENHA-
GEN has put a firm foot down on
a novel shortcut worked out by
Schoolteacher Niels Soernsen to
get him to school on time at the
remote fishing village of Halls.
He couldn't take the regular
steamship line into calling at Halls,
so-he waits on deck until the
steamer comes near the spot, then
jumps overheard and swi m
ashore.
Unsafe, ruled the company and
refused to sell him any more tick
cts.
Mr.. Sorensen is looking for
new shortcut.

The passenger list of a Paris
Stockholm airliner carried a "Mrs.

Newsmen and photographers de-
scended on the airport and the
police sent out reinforcements to
handle expected fans.
Passport officials sent a radio
message to the plane asking Mrs.
Clark to remain aboard. They said
they would handle her directly.
The only Clark aboard was
David Crawford Clark, 26, of Glen
head, N. Y. He was a nervous
young man until the name mix-up
finally was cleared up.
The Supreme Court in Denmark
has sentenced the parents of a
couple of six-year-old boys to pay
4,450 crowns for damages to a gro

4,2OO eggs of the firm by throw

they said was playing ball." Most
of the eggs were cracked up.

and people assumed he was a real

which no doubt helped him. But
soon enough hospital attendants

VISION IN KOREA - up - Good
camouflage is designed to fool the
enemy but when it cOnfuses a Ma
rine Old-timer it is considered well
above average.
GuEnery Sergeant Charles A. Nc

that his company carried out its

gan cutting some likely branches
beside the first sergeant--from

EntomOlOgists Of the U. S. De-

a piece Of black cardboard edge

are suspected. If you can see small
yelloWish or pinkish mites moving
over the cardboard and accumu-

The day brings back a sad memory
Of a dear one who is laid TO rest;
And those who think Of him each day'
Are those who loved him best.
His face is ever before us,
His voice we shall never iorsel'
His smile win last forever,
In memory we see him yet.

Another Atomic
Bomb Exploded
On Eniwetok

WASHINGTON, May l2.-(R.
Another atomic bomb has been
exploded at Eniwctok, the prov
ing ground for the atomic energy
commission in the Pacific.
Details are scarce at this mo-
ment, but apparently the A
bomb might have oeen tested has
structions built on the test island
as a means of finding out more
about defense against the bomb.
Early speculation that a hydrogen
bomb might have bee infested has
been discounted.
A Washington State congress
man, Henry jackson, gave out
the first word of the test at Hon
/, olulu. Jackson said he had at
tended the test on Enwetok. And
later here. A member of the Sc
natc-House atomic committee
said the test had been finished.
The Atomic energy commission
which announced the tests would
be made some time ago, would
not comment. But there is pos
sibility that the Acc may make
a formal announcement later to
day.
The Acc had said earlier il
would pass along results OF its
tests to civilian defense authori-
lies and to architects. Structures
for the test were set up over an
18-month period by civilian con
;truction workers.
