Strange Contrasts
Found in CHICAGO

in the Chicago River, the
gang killings at Cicero and
environs. the emergence Of
great talent in the field of
arts and letters, establish
ment of Cook County as a
theatrical center cit once had
about l6 playhouses operat-
ing simultaneously, and the
recognition for the city as
a world-famous port.
Cabbies Say Thanks
A city with an unforgetta-
BILE past, Chicago's impor-
tance as a metropolis Of
3.500.000 remains unchal-
lenged. The legitimate thea
ter here is near the vanishing
point and night life has
dwindled unbelievably, but
it's still a city in which there
is a bronze plaque on the
upholstery of the pump room
indicating that the booth
belongs to Shirley Booth: in
which cab drivers thank you
for a 15-cent tip, and in
which the Marshall Field
department store retains its
undiminishing fame. The
help in this and other first
class establishments is ex-
traordinarily polite.
Chicago isn't foolproof
geographically but it's not
necessary to get lost. If
you're coming on by car from
the east. say. and your OBJ
jective is the Loop or the
North Side 1 suggest that
you take Indiana avenue as
your course from the sky
way: it gets you places.
You'll find that the driving
is fast along Michigan ave-
nue. and that many Of the
drivers on the outer fringe
OF the Lake Shore route are
maniacal, but certainly no
crazier than those Of Long
Islands expressways or of
Sunset boulevard in
Hollywood.
There was the time when
this giant city, strung out
beside a lake, was the home
OF some celebrated play
houses-Cohan's Grand and
the Woods, the Selwyn and
the Harris. the Garrick and
the Great Northern. The
Garrick is to become a g.
story garage. The Cohan has
vanished: so has the Great
Northern. The Selwyn is now
the Cinestage and the Harris
is called the Michael Todd
Theater. Theaters currently
available for stage purposes
are the big and ornate Sam
S. Shubert, the Erlanger and
the Blackstone.
Gone is the day when such
a folksy piece as Booth
Tarkington's "The Man from
Home" could achieve a years
run in Chicago. but Flower
Drum Song" managed to stay
for % weeks. Another miracle
Of show business. If Richard
Rodgers had seen the per-
formance that I saw in
Monroe street, near State, he
would have been inclined to
jump into Lake Michigan.

THE PROBLEM

Mrs. T. Any poor little
grandchild, Tommy, lost both
his parents in an awful auto
mobile accident four years
ago. He was only 3 and I, as
his nearest of kin. became
his legal guardian. I have a
lovely apartment in town, and
Tommy'S uncle, my youngest
son, lives with us and helps
me watch the boy.
Last summer I arranged for
the child to visit my oldest
son and his family who live
in a two-family house way
out in Brooklyn. To my dis
may. when September rolled
round, Norman announced
that Tommy wanted to stay
there and that they wanted
him permanently.
Norman is a wonderful
fellow. but he quit school at

cultural advantages my other

him what every 7-year-old
needs most-a happy family

Death Voted
Old School
In Arlington

The Arlington School Board
after a prolonged, sometimes
emotional hearing, last night
voted unanimously to abolish
the old John Marshall Elemen-
tary School which has been the
subject of growing parental
complaints during the last three
years.
The board agreed to engage
architects to draft plans for
addition of eight classrooms tc
Taylor School and two at Not
tingham School to accommo-
date pupils from Marshall.
Some parents of children at
Taylor objected that the shift
of students would undermine
standards because of the nec-
essity of enlarging the school
The school board disputed
this contention and other par
ents said they would welcome
the children from Marshall.
Construction will be COM
pleted in time to close the old
school. which consists of 10 ad-
mittedly substandard rooms To-
Gated on a site of less than
acres bounded by three major

board allocated for erection OF

Police estimated the monthly
take of the ring at $4,000. Mu-

flushed down a toilet and other
records that had been torn
and tossed from an apartment
window, were recovered, police
said.
Police said the ring had been
under surveillance for two and
a half months and that the in

Two Indicted,
Six Freed in
GamingCase

Government prosecutors won
criminal indictments yesterday
against two Washington gam
blers arrested in May, but said
inadequacies in Federal law
forced them to drop charges
against six other persons ar
rested in the numbers raid.
Indicted by a Federal grand
jury at Alexandria were Othel-

the Loudoun County (Va.)

Internal Revenue Service e
agents, and Charles (Geechie)
Anderson, At, of the $500 block
of Twelfth street NE.
Both men were accused of
failing to register as gamblers
with the Internal Revenue
Service and failing to pay
taxes on gambling income.

during March and April of this
year, failing to pay the tax Of
about $3.177.
Both men we're convicted in
police bribery cases here in
1854.
The case, in which the Fed
eral agents said they cracked
a $4.5 million-a-year District
centered numbers ring with
the raid on its courthouse
near Leesburg, was cited yes
terday by Attorney General
Robert Kennedy as an example
of the need for broadening
Federal gambling laws and au-
thority to prosecute in cases in
volving interstate crime.
Explaining why charges were
dropped against the other four
men and two women arrested
in the raid, Assistant United
States Attorney Plato Cacheris
said, "The present Federal
wagering laws do not permit
the Government to indict any
one other than the proprietors
of numbers operations or the
writer himself"
