of this will be given in a combination program on june 21, 1947. VVave Andrews, a second Paderewski, will give some piano selections, Isla Detter. Galli-Curci's successor, and Frank Carta, Enrico Caruso's successor, will sing, and Lillian Light, the rival of Pavlowa, will dance. A very industrious-looking man, with a frown on his brow, sits in a car parked by the curb, writing furiously. XVell, if it isn't Sherlock Holmes the second. alias VVallace Andrews. An immense car, with a very important-looking personage in it, stops beside me. By his flaxen hair I immediately identify the passenger as Frank Root. During our conversation, he tells me that he is president of a railroad. I never would have thought it of Frank of the Biany Cars. Buying a newspaper from a boy on the corner, in headlines of three-inch type I read that Jean Tuggle, the captain of the Philadelphia Amateur Ice Hockey League, has brought the international ice hockey title back with her from the llontreal puck-chasers. Another article which receives my attention tells of a twenty-three story building, owned by Bob Light, and is being designed by Jack Bracher. This building will cost three million dollars, and will have the unique addition of a combination stock-farm, roof-garden and laboratory. In charge d'affaires', will be the story-teller extraordinary of Le Conte, George H. Gamble. As I further scan the pages, I become deeply engrossed in a copy of a speech given by Charles Hunter, the most loved politician in these forty-eight United States. Things become hazy. I open my eyes to look into the sympathetic face of Illrs. Daly, who turns to a group of my friends and says, IVell, girls, shelll be O, K. in a minute, but this big bump on her head will be no gentle reminder of the glorious victory her team achievedfl l61I
