many reasons why, reasons which
had in them something of mingled
hurt pride, resentment against pro-
bling, defiance, and a kind of reti-
cence against hurting mama even
though she had hurt me. I guess I
leanred then to make replies which
were not exactly honest, but near e.
nough to truth to satisfy mama, and
yet safeguard my own personal de-
mands for privacy. I guess one
would call these replies little white
lies"
Perhaps little white lies" are not
ethical, but I have found that they
are necessary if I am to hang on to
my own bit of privacy They're in
dispensable when coping with those
embarrassing, personal, really none
of your business" questions which
are forever being thrown at me.
Perhaps, being a woman, one of
the very personal questions which
rifle me is that very tactless remark,
How old are you, anyway" Now,
that is one question which, as wo-
man, I feel is my own private bust
ness. Before I learned the hard
way used to laugh such a question
off with We'll, I'm almost 30'',
trusting that my interrogation ma
tive intelligence would know that I
couldn't be 30 But I should have
known that anyone who was capa-
BILE of asking such a question had no
native intelligence. 1t came back to
me that I was old enough to be my
own mother, or someone else's wife.
And for any natural prank I hap
pened to fall into, was reprimand-
ed with You should know better, at
your age!" Then I developed a kind
of fixedly toothly smile If I said
nothing, I figured to myself, I
wouldn't open my mouth to put my
foot in it. But one can't go on for
ever, passing out toothy smiles And
somewhere about that time, I lost a
front tooth which made that strate-
gy useless. My newest answer-and
one which isn't by all means perfect
but will do for the time being-is to
look into their inquisitive eyes and
say, How old do YOU want me to
be?" Nothing like being accommo-

I've come round to this line OF
thinking, not without some unhappy
moments. Honesty is the best poll
cy" is one proverb I accept with GER
tain reservations.
Lest my righteous friends feel that
my upbringing was somewhat amiss,
let me point out that I was brought
up to be honest. 1t was the one
prime requisite in our household,
followed closely-very closely-by o.
ther awesome and soul binding
traits as repect for ones elders, ODE
dience, cleanliness and promptness
In fact honesty was carried to the
nth degree in our household In fact
methinks it was carried little too
far. We were no raving beauties
neither my sister nor land that
point was brought home to us with
religious honesty whenever we were
trotted out to meet family friends
Being children who came very late
in my mothers life, I guess we were
a novelty, and I presume, made it

don't have to tell them we're 'mita-

us!" All I received for my remark
was a severe reprimand accompa-

marks, child"
1t was a direct question and an

Then, there's another prying ques-
ton which I believe is highly unfor-
givable. Girls who have been earn
ing a living for a fair number of
years, who are independent and re-
sourceful, and are still single, are
bound to get this MY, you must be
loaded! You must be making mo-

money l don't know what to do with
it, l hoard it in tobacco tins under
my bed" But the "much-too-e ager
to-believe" manner with which my
rude friends glanced at my new suit
or new fur jacket which, confiden-
TALLY took me IL months to pay off,
made me stop that tactic. Now I
tell little white one like "Oh, I'm
not making as much as would like
to. ; and if they pursue the sub
ject further, usually humble in
my collar or blow my long suffering
nose furiously, making comments a
bout how strange it is that my hay
fever is reacting again!
Then, there's the How much did
you pay for it?" which greets every
new purchase I happen to be dis

playing My reply, More than ex-
pected to pay for it,, is a perfect
example of wee white lie. The no.
sey gal is none the wiser and lie an
swered her question. And it usually
is true that I end up paying more
than I had expected to in the first
place
And then there's the inevitable,
fatherly question which spoils an
erstwhile lovely evening MY,
nice girl like you! Why aren't you
married." Now, that is a point
which is my own private business
And I say quite airily, without any
loss of dignity or without breaking
a friendly evening, mo one has
asked me latelyl"
And so I'm guilty of telling little
white lies. And I guess I'll go on
telling them as long as there are
people ill-mannered enough to en-
croach upon my private little world
without an invitation. And if, at
some time, find myself being held
back at Heavens Pearly Gates, you
can be pretty sure that all those no

FRESNO. Calf. July IL
Armed troops patrolled the down
town streets today as police
combed this central California
city of $4,000 for a maniacal
firebug whose torch plunged the
community into a near-panic.
Loiterers and casual paSSersby
were ordered out of a 32-block
downtown area in the wake OF IL
fires which broke out almost
simultaneously in major build
ings yesterday amid q rash OF
false alarms.
Mayor Gordon Dunn declared
q state of emergency. Gov. Earl
Warren authorized use of volun-
teering National Guardsmen.
The troops stood guard through
the night to prevent looting and
further arson at hospitals,
schools and other public build
ings.
More than 20 f1remen over
come by heat or smoke were hos
pitalized, but there were no
other reported injuries. Damage
was estimated upwards of $780,
600.
To guard against loss of life
should the arsonist or arSonists
strike again, theaters, dance
halls and other amusement CEN
ters were shut down under the
emergency proclamation.
There is no doubt these
(fires) were deliberately set,"

Mayor Dunn declared. Most
started in restrooms and closets.
Police said several false alarms
were turned in at the height
of the fire-fighting apparently
to draw equipment away from
the real blazes.
All Fire Units in Action.
When all Fresno fire units
were in action and new out
breaks continued, the Mayor
broadcast an appeal for help
from neighboring fire depart
ments, volunteers and civil de-
fense workers. Units responded
from as far away as go miles.
The National Guardsmen took
over patrol duty from police, who
were released to join a giant
manhunt. The FBI was con-
suited.
The first fire broke out at 1:45
pm. in the four-story Hughes
Hotel. a historic 66-year-old
building as the mercury neared
the days high Of 101 degrees.
More than 80 persons were
evacuated before flames left the
$50O,000 building almost total
loss.
Within minutes, flames broke
out in the Brix Apartments, a
new four-story building across
the street from Fresno's City
Hall. AS the last of Fresno's
available fire units pulled up
there, other alarms flowed in.

camera crews to the Belgian
Congo and there is no disputing
that these came back with some
exciting backgrounds. Africa
plus Technicolor plus wide
screen adds up to a combination
that has visual wallop exceeding
the dramatic wallop of the story
told in the film.
/. The Ivan Golf f-Ben Roberts
screenplay, based upon the novel
of Louise A. Stinetorf, is pretty
strictly stock.
Il It relates how love came to
dedicated nurse and a white
hunter in the steaming jungle
and it turns out that this is ex-
actly the way love always has
come to such types in jungles.
It sinks up on them much like
a freshman lion making good
on his first manhunt. At first,
naturally, they fight the emotion
but not to the point of running
the movie for people conditioned
to happy fadeouts.

Otto Lang's directoral ap-
proach to white Witch Doctor"
is that of a man who has solid
If undistinguished, action mar
rative to work on.
He has reason also to feel
confident that, with players OF
such established low boiling
points as Miss Hayward and
Mitchum, the Congo climate will
quickly ignite them. This is
sound judgment on Lang's part.
Miss Hayward and Mitchum
are thrown together when she.
a nurse, lands in Africa looking
for some one to take her into
the interior where she aims to
bring modern medicine to the
tribesmen. just by chance, her
destination and Mitchum'S are
the same, although his motive IS
far more ignoble. He has heard
the natives have a kind OF Fort
Knox and he wants it's gold as
q way of breaking Africa's spell
and getting back to civilization.
Good has never yet lost this
particular tussle with evil in a
movie and white Witch Doc
tor" leaves the formers winning
streak intact.
X X X X
A good routine realism is Ing
parted to the picture by its Afri-
can setting. Africa is not a
country to inspire subtlety in
human behaviour and Miss Hay
ward and Mitchum are clearly
satisfied that this is the case.
He finds her an attractive
woman, if a foolishly idealistic
one in wanting to steal the ma
tives away from their tribal
medicine men. On her part, She
makes reluctant note that a
woman who wanted to bother
could cure him of his cynicism.
Naturally, she wants to bother.
Unlike Sd cameramen who
want to frighten the wits out
of movie-goers, Lang's I'D men
took the Congo as it came. They
did not look for snakes dangling
from jungle trees nor try to jam
their cameras down the throats
of every passing hippopotamus.
They let the eerie landscape
of Africa speak for itself and
it seems quite intelligent Of
them.
The comedy highlights of
"White Witch Doctor" are those
which seem almost accidental.
