Skolsky, was covering the 1888
awards, he decided that the
academy was getting a bit stuffy
and this thing needed some kid
ding. He remembered that vaude-
vile comedians always called or
chestra leaders Oscar and the
statuette's name was born.
Only one man had an answer
to that. Bette Davis, he said
weakly, also had laid claim to
naming Oscar.
Anyhow, one thing was made
clear by yesterdays closed circuit
affair. If NBC will give Skolsky
an off-stage microphone and let
him comment, in the manner of
the old Greek chorus, on the
Academy Awards. it will really
have show next Thursday
night.

work can make an award of its
own-an Oscar to the winner of

to take the Nation to the Acad-

they were discussed yesterday on

but yesterday NBC deprived its
listeners of a very funny half
hour by keeping this circuit
closed. Things went along
smoothly for awhile as sundry
people chatted back and forth
between New York and Holly
wood about the big TV and
radio broadcast.
Conrad Nagel told how he and
a couple of other fellows founded

ter, in New York, wanted to

said Don't worry. darling" and
she said she wouldn't.
Various technical matters were
discussed to the edification of no
one in the room out at WRC-TV
where this was being heard.
Then somebody asked if there
were any questions and Column
mist Sidney Skolsky leaped into
the fray.
How, he demanded, do you pick
the singers to deliver the songs
nominated for awards and didn't
Frank Sinatra refuse to sing the
song he introduced in a movie?
There was a sort of cracking
hush. Somebody started an eX-
PLANTATION and Mr.. Negulesco cut
in.
It was not deemed proper, he
said, for Judy Garland, in her
condition of incipient mother
hood, to sing song titled THE
Man Who Got Away" So Rose
mary Clooney would sing that
instead of the song She intro
duced.
Mr.. Skolsky went along with
that, but wasn't it a fact. he de-
manded, that Sinatra had been
asked to sing a song and fatty
refused? Mr.. Sinatra, he was
told, had been the soul of CO.
operation. Since, however, as an
award-winner last year he would
be presenting an award this
year, he felt that he shouldn't
appear twice. Mr.. Skolsky sub
sided, but not satisfied and not
for long.

Somebody suggested that
Charles Bracket, president of

got its name and he proved, to

academy, he said took a look at

declared Looks just like my

whimsy, said Mr.. Bracket. be-
cause she didn't even have an

microphone warmed up.

The Man
The Boy
& The Donkey
FABLES From Aes0p)

A man and his son were once
going with their Donkey to mar
ket. AS they were walking along
by its side countryman passed
them and said: you fools, what
is Donkey for but to ride
upon"
So the Man put the Boy on
the Donkey and they went on
their way. But soon they passed
a group of men, one Of whom
said: See that lazy youngster,
he lets his father walk while
he rides
So the Man ordered the Boy
to get off, and got on himself,
but they hadn't gone far when
they passed two women, one
of whom said to the other:
"Shame on that lazy lout to
let his poor little son trudge
along"
Well the Man didn't know
what TO do, but at last he took
his Boy up before him on the
Donkey. BY this time they had
come to the town, and the pas
sers-by began TO jeer and point
to them. The Man stopped and
asked what they were soothing
at. The men said: "Aren't you
ashamed of yourself for over
loading that poor Donkey of
yours 49, you and your hulking
SOM"
The Man and the Boy got off
and tried to think what to do.
They thought and they thought,
till at last they cut down a pole,
tied the Donkey's feet to It,
raised the pole and the Donkey
to their shoulders. They went
along amid the laughter Of all
who met them till they came
to Market Bridge, when the Dom
key, getting one of his feet loose,
kicked out and caused the Boy
to drop his end of the pole. In
the struggle The Donkey fell
over the bridge, and his forefeet
being tied together, he was
drowned.

them. please all, and you will

(This is the ninth of a serise OF
short articles on Social Security
prepared by Harold ID. Smith,
District Manager of the Phoenix
Social Security Office. This ar
ticle deals with disability
The 1854 amendments to the So
cial Security Act contain provi-
sion a. remove a period of total
disability from persons wage
record at retirement. Under the
old law, a wage earner'S average
monthly wage would drop if ne
were disabled and unable to work,
resulting in a much lower retire
ment rate at age IS. Under the new
law the average monthly wage TN
which the retirement amount is
based is figured without the dis
ability period.
This new part of the Social Sc
curity law is referred to as the
disability freeze" If you have
total disability which is expected
to be of long duration, you can
have your earnings record frozen"
by applying through your Social
Security Office, starting January
1, 1855.
The nature of the disability must
be severe enough to keep YOU
from doing gainful work. After
period of six months of disability,
your earnings can be frozen" If
the disability is expected to d0n-
tinue and you have sufficient work
under Social Security.
You must have not less than five
years of work out Of the ten years
before you were disabled. You also
need one and one-half years of
work under Social Security out of
the three years Immediately before
the onset of the disability.
If yu are already receiving old
age benefits, but you were totally
disabled before reaching age IS,
you can apply to your Social Sc
curity Office, beginning January,
1855, to find out if your benefits
would be increased by removing
the pers-d d Of your disability from
your earnings record.

How Can |?

Q. I've heard that it's risky for
the older woman to wear black. Is
this true?
A. Certainly not. But the black
should be relieved with a bit of
color or white near the face. I'm
less the woman has kept her beauty
fresh and youthful, solid black near
the face will tend to drain it of
color.
Q. What is the best way to apply
mascara?
A.First, comb the eyebrows
straight up with a fine comb, mois-
ten the mascara brush and darken
the brows while they are still
straight up. Then comb the hairs
gently back into a graceful arch.

Get all the city will give you

Write unsigned letters to the edi-

money.
"Talkcooperation, but don't do
any work for your city unless you
get paid for it. And by all means
refuse to serve unless they make
you chairman.
Never acc tpena
Never accept an office. It's
easier to criticize than to do
things. Accuse anybody who serves
in an elected office of being a
seeker. cor a crook.
Don't do any more than you
have to. When others willingly
and unselfishly give their time
to make a town better, howl be-
cause that town is run by a clique.
Don't back your fire depart
ment or your police department.
If the firemen work to bring the
insurance rates down, tell every
body that is what they are sup
posed to do. Don't thank them or
the policemen for endangering
their lives that you might have
