! would appreciate informa-
ton as soon as possible from
RICH readers concerning the
State of Wyoming. My hus-
band has an opportunity for
q job there, at Casper, to be
exact. We would like to know
something about the city (as
well as Wyoming generality,
its shopping facilities, housing,
transportation. schools,
churches, whether it is an ac-
tive. bustling city with good
possibilities for private busi-
ness, what recreational facili-
ties are available locally or
nearby, and the climate.
Would there be possible diff
ficulties in adjusting to the
West for people who have been
in the East many years?

BATHMAT CARE?

fMrS. II. l.. ~, WGStttgt0ftl
Perhaps some one has solved
the problem Of renewing the
rubber backing on washable
bathmats. I have good quail
itiy. chenille type bathnaats
with what looked like a heavy
coating Of rubber on the back.
However, after putting them
through the washing machine,
even though I have used warm,
not hot, water, I find that the
mats are no longer skid-proof.
I should like to know either
how to anchor them down to a
tile floor or how to renew the
rubber coated backing. Also,
has any one a recommendation
for keeping black and white
yinyl tile floors lustrous and
really clean? Water does not
seem to take off shoe marks
and the tiles are not supposed
to require waxing. Thank you.

the price of a pound to climb to
$1.10 and higher.

RATING THE
That Modern Jazz Look

This relatively recent trend to-
ward progressive or modern jazz
has become so formidable as to
take over at least half of the CEN
trail hmclight once ruled over
solely by denizens of the hot
variety. The new cult has made
such tremendous gains in popular
ity that 1t has not only weaned
some of the elder jazz fans from
the hot" side. but has attracted
hosts of new fans all this des-
pite efforts of die-hards who re-
sist change and who claim there is
nothing like that brand of music
dished out by stalwarts of old.
But here is room for both, each
has It's own contribution to make,
each can borrow from or collabor-
ate with the other to make even
greater Jazz"
Typical of what is being offered
in the progressive" field are re-
cent items by Charlie Parker and
group and the Stan Getz quintet.

of Miles Davis, trumpet; Max

"54" Should Be
Big Yeor For
Negro In Baseball
BY Virgil 0verbea

Although many folk have talked
about baseball as Americas ma
tional pastlme, this sport hardly
has deserved the compliment of
being an example OF democracy
and fair play. The year 1854, how
ever. could be the turning point
when baseball truly could ignore
racial prejudice.
II Is possible, that for the first
time since Branch Hickey intro
duced Jackie Robinson TO organic
ed baseball in 1916, that more than
half the Major League clubs will
have at least one Negro player on
their rosters. Remember. this Is
possible, but not altogether prob
able.
Taking the National league first
because II was the first TO accept
colored players and because each
year II features more of them. II Is
possible that six OF the eight clubs
win have Negro players, The ex-
ceptions will be the st. Louis Car
dinals and the Philadelphia Phil
lies.

first big tint program. the once
a-month BEST of Broadway
series, made its bow and did
precisely what the National
Broadcasting Company's first
spectacular" failed to do.
It gave the customers at home
a show that was solidly enter
tanning primarily. a color tele-
cast only incidentally. Whether
or not this sort of thing will sell
color teleyision sets is a matter
for further contemplation. The
point today is that CHS kept the
owners of 28 million mono-
chrome receivers in mind.
according to the latest Broad
casting Telecasting Yearbook,
5000 color sets had been manu-
factured by July / and "a SUBJ
stantial share of these went into
floor stocks, test operations and
demonstration uses" Best guess
is that no more than 100 color
sets are in use in Washington.)
The fact that BEST of Broad
