that in real, everyday life the

fine, clean-living citizens whose
joustS with the law for the most

A group of the boys and girls
who thus make their handsome

doxical situation on the set Of
a new bang-bang comedy,
"Stop, You're Killing Me-" at

Aunt" in Dutch, mind you, and
a performance of the Yugoslav
National Dance Theater. DE
Tante Won Charley" was what
they called it, and I never
laughed louder, although not ale
ways at the script. Seeing Dutch
cast dressed and behaving like
Americans are supposed to be-
have, and occasionally tossing
off an o. K. or so-long-kid at
each other was pretty funny.
The production was more or
less bad summer stock, but the
leading man was funny in a
massive sort of way-a big red
wig and spangles plus a face
like William Bendix. Not ex-
actly Ray Bolger.
The Yugoslavs are pretty ex-
citing, much energy and a
flock of native dances and songs.
More good theater than in lots

now We cannot get it off. Have

a paint I could use to cover these
tiles or could I varniSh them in

Answer: You should be able to
remove the varnish and sealer
spots by rubbing with a No.
steelwool. Paint and varnish are
not recommended for use on
asphalt tile because the oils in
both these materials would have
a softening action on the asphalt,

Question:: We bought house
two years ago and find that the
bricks in the foundation walls are
getting a frostlike appearance
and are crumbling. What can we
do to stop this and how can we
put in new bricks?
Answer: The presence of mois-
ture in the brick from the ground
outside is causing the condition
To overcome this, it will be neces-
sary to excavate around the out
side of the foundation walls down
to the footings and. after allowing
the brick to dry out thoroughly
all dirt should be brushed off. The
walls are then given couple of
coats of a liquid asphalt damp
proofing. The frostlike substance
on the brick can be taken off with
a wire brush.
To replace the disintegrating
brick, chop out the old. including
the mortar around it. After
brushing out all loose particles
wet the interior surfaces and put
in the new brick using a fairly
stiff mortar mixture of one part
portland cement and three parts
of clean. coarse sand. Keep the
mortar damp for several days to
allow it to harden properly.
Removing Old Wax.
Question: would like to know
how to remove old wax from inlaid
linoleum. In certain spots, par
ticularly around the gas range
and refrigerator, the accumulated
wax has turned black. Can you
help us?
Answer: If paste wax is used,
it can be removed with fine steel
wool and plenty of mild soap and
water followed by rinSing with
clear water. Some types of self
polishing wakes. when built up

SCOT on Roof Shingles.
Question: My oil burner depos-
its SCOT on my new asbestos shin
gled roof. The local heating ex-
pert put on a tall smoke stack
with two down drafts, but this did
not help. I am having a factory
man inspect the system to locate
the difficulty. Meantime, 1 would
like to know if the SCOT will rot
the asbestos shingles. Would it be
desirable to replace the shingles
Evening star., 1952-11-29
Here's the Way to Replace Disintegrotinq Brick

when the trouble is cleared? Is 1t
advisable to have such shingles
scrubbed with a brush and soap?
Answer: The SCOT on the roof
will not. have any damaging effect,
and after the difficulty has been
cleared up most of it should wash
away with the rains. However, if
YOU wish, the shingles can be
scrubbed with one of the new de-
tergent powders used in the pro-
portions OF a one-half cupful of
detergent in each pailful of water.
If the shingles are not asbestos,
but asphalt chat is if they are
flexible and pliable) do not scrub
them.

members of Maryland's delegation

vention vote their personal pref
erences ats Chicago the count
would be IA for Senator Taft and
10 for Gen. Eisenhower.
The "if" is a big one.
One of the delegates is Gov

name will be presented to the con-
vention as a favorite son candi-
date for the presidency and who
has said he would be happy to
get the vice presidential nomina-
ton.
Gov. McKeldin has avoided TAX
ing formal, final stand in the
Taft Eisenhower race but has said
the understanding he is for Gen
Eisenhower is correct.
He has also said many times
he would make no attempt to
prescribe how the other members
of the delegation vote.
If he did, the Evening Sun said
he could command 8 of the Il
Taft votes and make Maryland
count 18 for Gen. Eisenhower anC
6 for Senator Taft.

S12 Million Surplus
Likely in Maryland
By the Associoted Press

BALTIMORE, June 28.-Mon-
day closes the State government S
1852 financial year and it looks
like there will be about So million
more in the bank than expected
When the States money wizards
were making up budgets last Feb
ruary for the General Assembly
they estimated a surplus of re-
ceipts over expeditures of about
$9.867, $40.
Yesterday they said it promises
to be closer to $12 million.
The $12 million surplus doesn't
mean Maryland will be that much
ahead, however. Most of it was
set aside to balance the budget for
fiscal 1858. which starts July /.
Maryland's income tax payers
