God it not a God of confusion. 1 Corinthians 14:33. Some silly teachers
in our universities have not yet found this out. They should read The
Wisdom of the Body or the Divine Pedigree of Man.
It's Now Up To Russia
PRESIDENT EISENHOWER plainly is determined that the
initiative for peace shall remain with the United. States.
The world cannot fail to note that once more, in his letter to
Soviet Premier Bulganin, he has made a concrete proposal
which indicates sincere, sober thought on the issue of dis-
armament.
The proposal this time is that under suitable safeguards
a ceiling should be placed on the world's stockpiles of atomic
and hydrogen weapons.
One might say that this plan is a natural corollary to the
president’s atoms-for-peace suggestion which this government
is now prepared to carry out by distributing sizable amounts
of nuclear material to foreign lands.
By disclosing this intention, this country showed to all
the earnestness of its concern for peace.
It showed, too, the depth of its awareness that concen-
tration on the warlike uses of nuclear material spells peril for
every nation.
TtfOW Eisenhower has taken the next logical step, recom-
mending that the menacing stockpile of super-weapons
be frozen before it becomes unmanageable.
He has not, however, intimated in any way that this coun-
try would enter into a freeze pact without safeguards against
its violation. He has drawn Soviet attention again to his bold
plan for mutual air inspection as part of an effective dis-
armament enforcement system.
This, too, was a master stroke when first proposed.
Whether or not it is a truly practical moans of assuring dis-
armament, the air inspection plan sharply dramatizes this
country’s willingness to adopt real enforcement and Russia’s
reluctance to do so.
The men in the Kremlin knew instantly that the presi-
dent had scored with his latest missive in the Eisenhower-
Bulganin correspondence. The headlines across the world
were bound to read impressively. After all they have said
about wanting a ban on nuclear weapons, the Russians hardly
could range themselves against the simple purposes of his
proposal.
want
rpilE ball is in their hands again. We have said we
what they say they want—disarmament and peace.
We have gone beyond to declare that we are willing to
make sacrifices—in the shape of inspection—to gain these
objectives.
The question now is, as it has always been: What are
the Russians prepared to sacrifice?
The moment the Kremlin says it will accept real enforce-
ment provisions—whether air inspection or some other—
then the way will really be clear for a disarmament pact that
can include a ceiling on nuclear weapons and many other
vital features.
Everybody talks peace.
We have shown our readiness to translate talk into action.
Moscow must now show what it is ready to do.
A girl with the most beautiful back was picked at a Florida
resort. We’ll bet she grinned and bared it.
Just go to one of those smorgasbords if you want to find
out how a stuffed olive feels.
About the only time some people will listen to both sides
is when they re on a record.
There’s a place for everything—except your crossed knees
under most restaurant tables.
When parents send their children to college at least they
have^somebody around to correct their grammar.

THE STORY: Mike Morrison, an
American, has been caught by the
German invasion of Greece in
1941. Worse, he has information
that the Germans want, a coded
list of Underground leaders he was
deliver to London. A British in-
telligence agent, Soutar, is killed
during the escape.
* * *
XII
HEILSER had told the American
Embassy quite truthfully that he
wished he knew where Morrison
was and that he was looking for !
Morrison day and night. He did not,
however, mention what would hap-
pen when he found Morrison. The
embassy even went so far to oblige
Heilscr with two pictures of the
American. One from a dust jacket
a book, another from a pass-
port. Unfortunately one could not
identify his own mother from such
photos.
The trained agent takes certain
paths, certain risks. The trained
agent puts his mission above his
life. Not so the desperate
teur. He will be unorthodox, de-
velop the cunning of a wild ani-
mal to keep alive.
Heilser reconstructed the chain
of events. First, Mosley's call from
Kalamai informing him that Mor-
rison had not escaped from Greece
and had been located in the BKF.
Heilser had dashed to Corinth.
Morrison had never showed up.
Then, Mosley's body was discov-
ered near the beach at Kalamai
and Heilser knew the desperate
amateur had won a round.
Next, Soutar’s body was found
near the railhed outside Nauplion.
Heilser had questioned every pris-
oner and guard who rode the1
train. Heilser was able to estab- j
lish the fact that Morrison had
been on the train with Soutar and
that they had tried to escape a |
few moments apart. Soutar had
failed. Morrison had succeeded.
Zervos stood in the drawing
room with his hat in his hand. His
envious eyes moved around the
luxurious suite.
Soon my time will come Zervos
thought. Reward from these Ger-
man louts is small but a man can
make his own rewards. He, Zervos,
had played the right side. German
occupation was a fact. A man docs
not want to be a government clerk
all his life.
He thought of some of the
wealthy Greek citizens. He, Zer-
vos, had the power of the German
police behind him. Soon he would
be paying friendly visits to these
wealthy compatriots of his. Ho
would advise them, in a nice way
of course, that they were suspect
by the Gestapo. Zervos could be
their friend and benefactor and
could arrange protection for them.
Unfortunately, such protection
would cost quite a sum of money,
Zervos' dream vanished as licit-
scr entered. For a second they ex-
changed stares of mutual hate, dis-
trust and fear.
Zervos shrugged his shoulders
and flopped his hands to his side
in a helpless gesture. "He has dis-
appeared into thin air. We have
turned Nauplion inside out.”
Heilser squashed his cigaret.
"Do you know what kind of a man
we are up against? We arc up
against a cornered rat. Nothing is
more dangerous, more ingenious
than a man who fights for his life.”
Then Heilser began to recite, as
though, he were speaking to him-
self: "He will try to get to Athens
sooner or later. He will try to con-
tact someone here. It will be some-
one Soutar told him to contact.
One of a dozen known sympathizers
of the British whom we already
keep under scrutiny."

his pillow.
In a few moments the girl re-
turned with a man.

THE man was short and stocky
and bald except for a horseshoe
fringe of hair. He sported an enor-
mous, neatly waxed, handlebar
mustache and wore a ballerina
skirt with long white stockings

Scattered around the room were
rudely built chairs and tables with
a large loom in the center.
In an instant his mind flooded
with recollections and he bolted
up, then overcome by dizziness,
and flopped back on the bed—a
six-foot-wide bed built over an
oven.
A handsome, tanned

The ballerina man announced

"You are in Paleachora.”

/AFT to the Country club where
” the divoteers and devotees of
the ancient and honorable game
of golf will surely stay inside
and shuffle the pasteboards or
sit by the fire and catch up with
the news.
The history of the El Reno Golf
and Country club begins 'way
back in the horse and buggy
days when there wasn’t anything
much west of the Rock Island
right of way, the baseball park
was north off Foreman and
Grand avenue, had not yet been
cut through that area. The Rod
and Gun club had five members
and was strictly off limits to
females.
The Bradford brothers who
later operated the ice plant at
Foreman and Hoff, had been to
Chicago where they had seen golf
played. They came home filled
with enthusiasm which quickly
spread to other sportsmen and
within a few months golf was
here to stay.
One of the converts was an
engineer-lawyer who was in-
structed to lease the ground
north of Watts and east of the
present Country club road, then
an Indian allotment, and there-
on construct nine sand greens. It
was done, fairways mowed,
rough untouched, a hitching rack
to which to tie the horses, boxes
containing sand for tees (wooden
tees were not yet) and that was
it. Ctyb house? Not any.
T ATER the land was sold and
the club was moved to the
Lyons pasture four miles east
and south of 66, where we were
not allowed to mow the fairways,
the roaming cattle kept the worst
of the top off, and a one strand
wire fence two feet tall was set
up around each green to keep
the animals off the sand. We
were permitted to use the farm
house as a club house and the
town’s earliest golf widows went
through the customary motions
of putting up curtains, restoring
broken down furniture and other
wise making the place habitable
so they could cook Sunday eve-
ning suppers on a wood stove
and have a glimpse of their golf-
ing husbands in the fading twi-
light.
There was considerable dis-
satisfaction with having to share
the area with the beef business
so the club moved back across
town to its present site. Same
deal. Same lawyer-engineer laid
out the course, constructed the
sand greens and this time built
a tight little hut where clubs
could be kept and a corner re-
served for the simplest kind of
club repair. Same hitching rack
parking lot. Later a house was
acquired, same kind of cook
stove, same women cooking,
same glimpses of husbands in
the same twilight.
By now the club had limited
its membership to 125 and had a
waiting list. At the first indica-
tion of land trouble the members
bought the land and the Ceru-
lean Blue Land company, was
formed. It later became the
Baby Dimple Land company, and
under what name it is currently
incorporated I do not know. This
I do know: golf widows went
out with the leg-o-mutton sleeve
and women are as apt to be the
late-for-dinner sinners as fre-
quently as the men. The club is
a place where the women are
entertained and they no longer
cook, not on any kind of stove,
and the long climb from a hard
beginning to a plush club, com-
plete with grass greens, swim-
ming pool, shop and club-house
and parking for cars can be con-
sidered a mission accomplished.
