Although her shop is only
ten by thirty feet, Mrs.
Toney's fame has spread over
the country. She regularly
mails finished work to far
away places. Just recently she
received a request, post
marked San Juan, Puerto
Rico, for an estimate to repair
four dolls.
Elizabeth Toney herself is
an ingratiating woman with
a winning smile. She is full
of doll-lore and history.
"Close -mouthed dolls are
more valuable than OPEN
mouthed dolls" she states,
because close-mouthed dolls
were made earlier and may
be antique.
Being somewhat handi-
capped, Elizabeth Toney en-
ploys young handicapped as
siStants. The Vocational Re-
habilitation Board recently
recommended a teen-ager to
her for a six-month training
period. She hopes to give her
assistant some know-how in
the technique and art of toy
repair.
Doctor Elizabeth knows her
business. She can devise in
genious ways to rei'aIr what
seems irreparable damage.
She can design and create doll
costumes. One customer even
had her mothers wedding
gown copied for an antique
doll.
Elizabeth likes to talk about
what she considers her out
standing accomplishment. Not
long ago, the Red Cross asked
that she rig up a doll for
use in their first-aid class
to demonstrate Wouth-to-

 q have indeed returned" Mac Arthur, 81, told roaring throng at the Manila International Air port.
 Upwards of 5O,0O0 Filipinos gave the returning hero a vel come which, in warmth and en- thusiasm, equaled the reception given former President Eisen- hover on his visit here last year.
 Although the turnout for Ei- senhower was reported larger - in the neighborhood of one million the people appeared more en- thusiastic in their welcome for Macarthur.
 The five-star general, on a Sen- timental 10-day visit to to this former battle-ground, appeared fit and healthy as they stepped off a glistening ge-tipped silver colored U. s. Air Force jet plane provided by President Kennedy.

Hemingway
Continued From Page D


 "A Farewell to Arms" in which Cooper starred when it was made into a movie, was based partially on his war experiences. It was with this novel in 1929 that Hem ingWay won world renoWn.
 In the Paris of the 1920S, Hem ingway became a disciple of Ger trude Stein, who once called him "the lost generation" It was on this theme that Hemingway built his early reputation with his novel, "The Sun also Rises," in 1926.
 Wars fascinated Hemingway. He entered enthusiastically into the Spanish Civil War on the Loyal ist side.
 From this came his brilliant and angry novel, For Whom the Bell Tolls" Cooper also starred in movie version of this book
 When World War II broke out. he was again on the front, spend ing weeks at the regimental headquarters of Col. Charles T. Lanham, later a major general commanding the first division in Germany. This too resulted in a novel, Across the River and Into the Trees"
 Hemingway had homes here and in Cuba, where he lived alterna- lively il: recent years and wrote ''The Old Man and the Sea-" which won him a Pulitzer prize in 1853
 Hemingway lived a lusty life as any of his fictional characters. When his Nobel prize was an nounced in 1854, Hemingway was in hospital, recovering from an injury he received when his plane crashed on a big game hunting trip in Africa.
 A source close to the Royal Swedish Academy of Literature said then the Nobel prze author titles believed Hemingway would receive the award eventually and i've might as well give it to him now before he kills himself"

Castro Is Served Notice That the Tractor Deal Is Off

KEY WEST, Fla. tR - Fidel Castro has been served notice that it is incompatible with the na- tional interest of the United States to pay him an indemity for damages caused by the April IT invasion of Cuba.
 Castro's insistance on repara- tions dashed all hopes of nego- tiated release of 1,197 prisoners.
 John Hooker Jr., executive secretary of the disbanded Trac- tor for Freedom Committee told 10 of Castro's prisoners here that Gin the name of honor the com mittee feels it cannot send Dr. Castro tractors, money or credits for indemity. Not $28 million or $28."
 The Cuban Prime Minister of- fered on May IF to exchange the prisoners for 500 heavy bull dozers. Later he said he would ac- cept lighter tractors as an in- demity for invasion damages, pro- vided their value was $28 million
 It was his insistance on in- demity that wrecked all hopes for a solution.
 Tn declining to reconstitute it. self in the wake of Castro's re- jection of it's final offer of 500 light tractors, the committee said through Hooker that:
 By thus changing the course of the negotiations by injecting the concept of indemity, Dr. Cas- tro sought to give the impression that the humanitarian intent of private citizens was proof of guilt.
 ''This made acceptance of Dr. Castro's terms incompatible with our national honor and our role as private citizens" Hooker told the prisoners.
 Hooker served as a link be- tween the prisoners and the com mittee since the 10 men arrived here, less than 24 hours after the committee had dissolved itself, a fact of which the prisoners were not aware when they left Cuba

Jim Ruckert
Easily Beats
Horse, Ford

Jim Ruckert, assistant track
coach at the University of
Maryland, easily won the nov
city race yesterday at Laurel
Race Course involving track
man, a stable pony and a 1911
Ford. The event was a recrea-
ton of a race staged at Laurel's
opening so years ago.
Ruckert logged home three
sixteenthS of a mile in front,
waiting at the finish line to
apologize to his opponents.
Ruckert started his run from
the quarter pole, Tommy Brow
mley and his stable pony got
off at the 512-furlong marker,
and Mel Tormey and his 1911
Ford blasted off from the
7-furlong pole. The pony, who
was sore" finished second a
comfortable distance ahead of
the car.
Ruckert, who performed in a
track suit, said after the race :
1T was too easy. I have been
training for a month, running
two and three miles each night.
I loafed the last half. If the
horse were put on the stretch
turn and the car up a little
closer. it would then make a
good race. I'll be glad to give
them another chance in two
weeks"
Torney in the 1911 Ford not
only had whale of a time, but
wasn't too discouraged about
the outcome. They timed on
the board at 1923 for the 7
furlongS. This means was 60
ing about IS miles per hour
But that wind was mighty
strong down the back stretch as
it was whipping right against
me. I guess that slowed me down
The car ran perfectly"
