For the last four days I have
been wandering through one OF
the good, new homes for retired
people the kind Of home
in which you. who read news
papers, may someday live.
This is what it's like:
The home. built and operated
by a religious group, is fairly
typical Of the better-class re-
tirement homes that religious
and fraternal organizations are
now setting UP. It started out
with fewer than 100 residents,
has expanded three times, and
still has a waiting list Of 500.
The home looks from the
street like a cross between a
hospital and an apartment
house. and 1t has the at
mosphere Of an institution
around 1t.
COnvaleseent Hospital
When you walk in the front
door. you feel you are in a
convalescent hospital. or maybe
a nursing home. The people
you see are feeble. blind and
lame. Nowhere in sight are the
John Jones and Mary Smith,
who retired last month, because
a retirement home is no coun-
try club for retired people, as
some seem to think. It's q re-
fuge for old folks.
Don't 60 away now - be-
cause this is where you come in.
Most Of the people in the
home start at about age ~. and
most Of them are between rs
and 80. Nearly all Of them, as
best you can determine 1t in
conversations with them, we're
firm in mind and body at IS.
Within six to 10 years beyond
that they saw infirmities COM
ing on and went to the home
voluntarily. Or families en-
couraged them TO 60 In after
inhrmities began.
One Big Dining Room
You see no misery, and you
see no unhappiness in the
home. Except for a couple Of
healthy, active 81 year olds
who frightened themselves into
coming too soon and are sitting
out on the front porch fretting
over what TO do about 1t now.

FAMOUS FABLES
BY E. Z. EDGAR

FASTLDIOUS: Journalist
Richard Harding Davis was the
most fastidious newspaperman
Of his time. Even in the heat
Of battle. when he was a war
correspondent, he was always
dressed impeccably. On one oc-
casion, he wore tuxedo.
One night. before leaving his
house to attend a party, he was
surveying himself in the mir
ror. The cut Of the suit was
perfect. with not a trace of a
bulge. He added a handker-
chief to one pocket. a key to
another.
He reached for his money;
then stopped. The crumpled
appearance Of the bills offended
him.
Summoning his housekeeper,
he handed her the bills and
told her what he wanted done.
In a few minutes, she handed
them back to him. neatly
pressed. Satisfied, he put them
in his pocket and went out.

year man in Washington.
Shortly after he assumed his
post. he got into a low stakes
poker game with several

books, they are wise to con-
slider sharing an apartment.
Both girls. through their
mutual respect and affection,
can help one another through
the lonely patches Of their
lives.
This takes care Of the sur
face details of the single
woman's existence. We come
now to the dificult and COM
pick area Of her biology.
Some women have met this
problem with the ingenious
hallucination that it doesn't
exist. They keep q tidy brain.
you aren't married" they
remind themselves. $50 you
don't even think about such
things" They withdraw and
become gray shadows. living
sray-shadow lives that are
utter wastes.
From the day she is born
until she dies a woman must
live with her gender. Woman
is equipped with a reproduc-
tive system which, even If
she never uses 1t, dominates
her fiber. Any pretense that
this force does not exist is q
bizarre and illogical as pre-
tending there is no atom
bomb. The sex drive Of the
normal woman is capable of
giving her great radiance.
It's the force within her
that makes her gentle with
children; it's a power that
can knock the cover Of q
golf ball or take her straight
down an almost perpendicu-
lar ski trail; it's part Of the
passion she feels when an
animal is mistreated:: it's in
the understanding she can
give another human being
who is desperately lonely.
1t can also make her the
most miserable of women. A
single woman's first protec-'
ton is to appreciate that her
sex drive is natural and nor
NAL. She then has to safe
guard herself with a stand
ard Of conduct that may
seem quaint and archaic. Her
best defense is to have no
confidence at all in her ability
TO say nay at the appropri-
ate moment and to avoid
situations where this ability
will be tested. l recon-
mend a policy Of preven-
ton, too. in order to lessen
the shattering effect of de-
sire. If walking in the dark
ness makes a woman ache
inside, then she should stick
to daylight for her strolls.
Tchaikovsky wrote som e
mood music for two-and
despair music for one. It's
masochistic to listen to music
that is disturbing.
The single woman must
also avoid involvement in
casual dates. sleeping
around" as casual love-mak-
ing is known in the vernacu-,
lar, is destructive for
a woman. Even II she avoids
the formidable threat Of
pregnancy. her physiological
pattern is shocked and morti-
fed by the callous emptiness
Of promiscuity. A woman gets
no real fulhlllment in such
flippant attachments: she is
degraded and her spirit suf-
fers terrible damage.
At some point in a woman's
life she will fall In love, and
that love will be married.
That's how fate always seems
to set 1t up. She will be faced
with the decision to withdraw

WITH HE
HIGH SCHOOLS.
By BOB HANSON

The outcome Of three big
scholastic football games this
week end will settle several
questions.
Coolidge and Wilson battle
it out Friday for the West Di-
vision title of the Interhigh
League and the right to meet
Anacostia, East titlist, for the
league championship next Fri
day.
Mclean is host to Hammond
in a Northern Virginia League
game Friday that Hammond
must win to stay in contention
for the title.
But the game that quite pos
sibly carries the most incentive
for victory is that between
Montgomery Blair and Bethes-
da-Chevy Chase. also Saturday
at Blair.
In reviewing the teams in
volved in these three games
and the possibilities of victories
it would size up like this:
COOLIDGE-WILSCN - The
last time Coolidge won a foot
ball title was in 1916 when il
beat Tech, 1876. for the Inter-
high League championship.
Wilson has Jared somewhat
better. The Tigers won the
league title in 1919 and 1852,
the West Division title in 1854,
losing to Anacostia for the
league championship, and were
runnerup to Cardozo for the
West title in 1855.
Incidentally. the coach of the
1949 and 1852 championship
teams was Joe Carlo. now as
sistant principal at Coolidge.
The season records are Cool
idge So. Wilson So. Each
finished league play at SCI.
The only league loss by
Coolidge was to Wilson. 20-14.
Fridays game is a toss-up,
but if the Tigers spring Dick
Drummond loose, as they did
last week against Cardozo. the
Colts will be in trouble.
