had laughed out Of existence
at the beginning Of the nth
century, Scott brought back
to life two centuries later, with
this fundamental difference:
That he crowded his canvas

sympathy only equalled by
Shakespeare"
This may seem high praise
indeed, but Mr.. Pearson's
critical evaluation is by no
means limited to adulation.
He sees Sir Walters faults
clearly, and explains that the
lavishness Of this authors

writing, seemed often to make
him oblivious to what was best

to non-fiction so frequently
noted by editors and book
sellers. But there is still q
solid core Of interest. for old
and young, In absorbing fic-

pure escape" reading. but
some Of it merits the name Of
literature and win outliye all
the factual books which are

Think Of Treasure Island

hazards of their heroes give

temporaries. 10000 Leagues

cause 1t challenges the imagi-
nation, dangerously. So we
must look for the emotional
appeal of a book, as well as its
literary quality.
Young readers. even more
than adults, need to escape
to books. They need to escape
from over-anxious or pre-
occupied parents. from teasing
brothers and sisters, from
worry over school and social
problems. They need stories
Of rugged adventure. Of mys-
terious strangers. They need
sad stories about animals be-
cause they often find animals
more sympathetic than people.
They need some out-and-out
nonsense. They need thrillers
with. near-miSses and last
minute rescues.

One day last week on my

Kinsley charges So a person
per day for fishing privileges.
The Kinsley ranch maintains
and stocks with bass, blue gill
and crappie the two lakes ly-
ing to the east of the NOgaleS
Highway. Mr.. Kinsley told me
that not only have his guests
caught bass from his lakes
weighing from three to six
pounds, but that he has had
to eliminate from his lakes
several lure-Wise fish so large
and so old that they are a
menace to the younger ones
in the lakes. Three of these
fish totaled "a pounds.
For those of you who like
fishing from the b banks of
or ponds, Kinsley's
ranch is only SO miles from
down town Tucson. All the ia
cilities for a swell day out in
the open are provided right
there; from dining room and
