The old man got up slowly, still

man, an outlaw considered now

wore a scraggly, detected NOUS

pair of sheep shears The most re-
markable thing about him were
his eyes; they were bright blue
but so crossed that no one could
be certain just where he was
looking. His name was Bub Whit

NEW YORK, June Is (INS)
So there l was, standing by a
window in the dentists office
high up in Rockefeller Center,
trying to decide whether to jump
or just go quietly into the lady's
room and open my veins. And
then lightning struck.
At that moment, above the roar
of Fifth Avenue traffic, I heard
the bucolic sound of a lawn-mow-
er. Some floors below me, a man
in shirt sleeves was pushing an
old-fashioned man-power mower,
carefully ~manicuring the grass on
one Of Mr.. Rockefeller's roof gar
dens.
Just like Archimedes, I scream
ed "Eureka" For it was obvious
that my search was at an end.

White pointed out to Gov. Dris-
coll that a Negro accused Of aid
ing Davidson in his escape was
lynched in the county Jail, and
that this mans wife was assested
and severely beaten. cit appears
from these facts" the AAC
executive stated, "that if David
son is returned to Troupe County,
Georgia, he will not receive a fair
trial, and might be deprived of his
life without due process of law in

Fourteenth Amendment to the
Federal Constitution"

MI. Hagemeister's rose gardens to-
day are all that rose gardens are
supposed to be in June: more
than a thousand bushes are in full
bloom.
Roses, according to Mr.. H., are
a push-over for the terrace gar
den. And I had thought them too
delicate for rugged roof life! But
not at all, especially if they are
floribundas.

events leading up to and follow

Ever since l acquired a pent-
house with considerable terrace
some months ago, I have been try
ing to find an expert who could
tell me how to farm a roof gar
den.
Why not ask Mr.. Rockefeller's
expert? 1 could have kicked N.Y.
self for not thinking Of it be-
fore!
No sooner said than done, and
if the petunias and geraniums,
the peppers and the string beans
don't flourish now, it won't be
because Homo Hagemeister, hor-.
t%iculturist at Rockefeller Center,
hasn't drawn me a blueprint.
MIR. HAGEMEISTER farms the
biggest roof or hanging gardens
in the world. He cultivates almost
four acres of terrace gardens at
various levels in Rockefeller
Center, or almost four times as
much space as ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

hanging gardens Of Babylon, list
