Crenna, who plays Luke in the
ABC-TV series, was about to take
on his first directorial job. The ward
robe was a series of gag gifts from
his wife, Producers Irving and Nor

Explained Dick: I've been direct
ing the commercials of this doggone
show for a long while, and I've
wanted to actually direct at least one
episode, too. When our regular fell

off on previous commitment, it was
my big chance. Easy? Not at all!

The episode Crenna was directing
is titled The Sunday School
Teacher" And it's possible I'll do
one or two more" he says.
AS for the weird attire, Crenna
wore it just long enough for the pho

Rev. Ted Johnson and a group
from the Assembly of God Church
were with us on Sunday, the 9th
Tor our Sunday evening services.
Then last Sunday Rev. Arthur
Hoffman and Mrs. Hoffman were
with us. Our people do appreciate
these services very much but we
do need a piano very badly. Per-
hapS some one would have a piano
that they would like to "Store"
or maybe donate to the Home. We
would make good use of it and it
would also help with our singing.
Rev. Paul Pratt and Rev. Robert
Kenny of Lambert were with us
on the 5th and the 18th respec-
lively for our Mid-week devotions
Mr.. Lloyd Sutton ST., visited
the Home on behalf of the Gid
cons and placed a Bible in each
of the three lounges.
We took advantage of the beau
tiful warm weather and had /;
picnic supper on the patio. Th'
"hot dogs' tasted much bette.
outside. This is the only picni'
that was held this fall, but NOR
will be held next summer.
We have two televiSion sets il
two of the lounges. These hav,
been loaned to us by the Home
makers Clubs. Perhaps someon
would have a floor lamp or tw'
that you no longer r using am
it is stored away in the attic, o
basement or garage If you do w
could make good use of them
They would make our lounge
more "Cozy".
This last Monday evening tn

Although she's been COM
pared to Grandma Moses,
S2-year-old Mrs. N. I. Balder-
son doesn't like it q bit.
Says this spirited Mont
gomery County resident,
Don't call me Grandma
Moses just because we're the
same age. After all I've been
painting for IS years."
Actually, Grandma Moses,
who in her 70s began doing
the serious painting that
brought her national fame,
is 100 years old.
But there are some similar
ties between the two artists.
Landscape is their speciality.
And although she had about
q half-century Jump On
Grandma Moses in taking up
the brush and palette, Mrs.
Balderson began her studies
in a little town in New York
State probably not unlike
Eagle Bridge, N. Y, where
Grandma Moses lives and
took up her painting career.

She's Been Pdintinq
For IS Years Now

II years, at the 41st annual
bazaar and supper to be
sponsored by the Women's
Board Of the Montgomery
General Hospital. The bene-
fit will be held at the Sher-
wood High School in Sandy
Spring, Md, on Tuesday from
2 to 9 pm.
Mrs. Balderson lives with
her daughter and Son-in-
law, Mr.. and Mrs. Jerry Cook,
in Damascus. Md. Mrs. Cook
who is on the Bazaar Com
mittee Of the Women's Board
of Montgomery General Hos
pital, asked her mother IA
years ago to donate q paint
ing to the annual hospital
benefit. Each year since
then, Mrs. Balderson has do
mated either an oil or water
color to the bazaar.
Mrs. Balderson was born
June lS, 1879, in Lawrence
County, N. Y. Until she
moved to Montgomery Coun-
ty 16 years ago she lived in
Parrishville, N. Y.
The octogenarian artist
began her art studies with
her father, Prof. Emory
Hall, a pen and ink artist.
Her only formal art training
was obtained in q three-week
course given by an itinerant
artist who organized a class
in Therese, N. Y, when she
was about Is years old.
Prize Winner
Her work has been good
enough to win her several
prizes and a lucrative high
estimate by an art appraiser.
She won first prize in a
Golden Age hobby show held
at the Commerce Depart
ment q few years ago. She
also received an award in the
International Artists Show
in British Columbia where
she exhibited two pictures.
Because of an incident in
connection with the British
Columbia exhibit she inad-
vertently learned how much
her work is worth.
Mrs. Balderson'S son-in-
law failed to have the two
paintings registered as an
exhibit when they were sent
to Canada. When the pic
lures were returned, customs
officers held them for duty.
The customs art appraiser
valued the art at q total Of
$1,000, or $500 apiece. Jerry
Cook couldn't talk them out
Of the duty and finally had
to pay to get back the paint
ings which already belonged
to his mother -in-law!

A Book Review
BY H. v. LANCASTER, JR.

~ ~ AA2NN<A0 ElktS 0xts
James Wellard's "A Sound of
T r u mp e t S" Boston: Little,
Brown and Co., 1860, 256 pp.,
$685. is a modern tale of ad-
venture in the mythical Middle
East country Of Iajar bordering
the Soviet Union. A tripartite
military mission of one Ameri-
can, one British, and one French
officer with a cockneyish British
sergeant as their jeep driver are
sent to remote Kharma Valley to
survey it as possible site for
an allied airfield.
But each member of the party
has other motives for making
the trip. The dashing young
American is looking for oil, the
Englishman is seeking a way to
help five physicists who report
eddy want to defect from behind
the Iron Curtain, and the French
man has dreams of extending
the political influence Of the new
