Novelist Tibor Derry was arrest

Hungary's striking writer's re-

periodicals, but do bring out old
manuscripts and even some new
ones for the government-run pub

Among many, the strike takes
the form of doing only transla-

of the classics. They keep their
work as far removed as possible
from the application of socialist
realism" to contemporary prob
lems-which is what the party

Remember It's Period When
RemOdeting An Old House
APP Newsfeatures

Is your old house in need of re-
pairs? If so, try to remodel it with
in its own period. That's the plea
of Roy w. Baker, an expert on
house restoration and membef of
the Society for the Preservation of
New England Antiquities.
Its wicked to tear up a lovely
old house the way some people do
or to modernize it with lot OF
modern doo-dads. A house is like
person in some ways, and you
wouldn't think of cutting off your
old-fashioned toes and replacing
them with fiashy modern digits."
There are ways to size up an old
house and maintain its charms,
says Baker, who has just helped
restore the Wayside Inn, South
Sudbury, Mass, the inn made fam
Gus by Longfellow.
There isn't nail or a smidgen
of glue in the framework of the
building now" says Baker proud
ly. 1.-The little execesses of recent
vintage - dormers, porches, fire.
places and 18th century paneling
all hit the dust too."
The first house was built in 1883.
It had two rooms and sleeping
quarters. The second house was
built around 1714 when two more
rooms were added. In 1740 third
edition AMI four more rooms were
added to bring the house up to eight
rooms.
I'VE have removed everything
that was added later than 1900 to
put the house in the era that Long
fellow knew in 1862" Baker says.
You can tell how old house is
by f'fiddling around with the
beams" Baker says. Styles of
construction change and decoration
Milford chronicle., 1958-07-18

-hakes of paint and scraps of pa
per buried under generations of
paint and plaster-may give further
clues to age.
The inn had been damaged by
fire in 1855. and Baker worked
tirelessly from that time to put
the pieces together again. He has
been digging, scraping and rip
ping out beams and floor boards,
made the discovery that the house
had three roofs. located an early
ball room, and found the remains
of an early fireplace by stumbling
on some clay where bricks had
once sat on a hearth.
When remodeling an old house
you should determine the struc-
ture first, where the windows were,
where the studs were, where the
room was, where the chimney was
located. These all add clues to
age. In the early days studs were
from 19 to % inches, and pine
floors from II to 20 inches" Baker
explains.
His team of 40 workmen includ-
ing his son duplicated working
methods of the Longfellow era also
hand cutting the lath, carving the
pegs and cutting pine boards to
the right size.
Baker, who lives in Antrim, N.
H., with his writer, painter wife
Edith, supervises some 200 old
houses every year for the pres
erVation society, giving reports on
each and constructive suggestions
for repair that will keep them in
the period to which they are best
suited, and ne says anyone can get
advice about ain old house through
similar orgaEizations existing in
most states.
