EW YORK.—Just after the last
World war, there was an air-
plane rough-rider known as the only
man who could crowd Jimmy Doo-
little in put-
ting a plane
through
murderous
punishment
That was young Lieut. Auby
Casey Strickland, just now Brig-
adier General Strickland, lead-
ing our bombers against Rom-
mel and giving our side just
about its first chance to cheer
without keeping its fingers
crossed. As chief of the bomber
command of the United States
army air forces—overseas last
July—he rode the first plane of
our bomber formation which
wrought historic havoe and hur-
ried the Axis on Its way. There's
a sidelight on General Strick-
land in his commendation of his
fliers in a successful attack a
few days ago: "Knocking them
right down on their own airfield!
That will teaeh those monkeys a
lesson! We'll drive these rats out
of their holes! Tonight treats for
the whole squadron, and it’s go-
ing to be on me."
He was bom in Braggs, Ala., Sep-
tember 17, 1895, attended Alabama
Polytechnic college, where he
played football, and joined the army
in November, 1917, not a West Point-
er. He was a first lieutenant in the
reserve corps and served overseas
in the artillery. In July, 1920, he
switched to the regular army, get-
ting a joint commission as first and
second lieutenant, the latter a for-
mality incidental to the former. He
was a captain in 1930. a major in
1935, a lieutenant colonel in 1940, a
colonel in 1941 and a brigadier gen-
eral last July. He completed the
army flying school course in 1922
and attended tactical school in 1939

E'OR obvious reasons, it is a pleas-
" ure to spot a sound Americana
item in the news these days. Here's
a nice one in the story
Comes Out From
Deep in Hinterland symphony
To Swing a Baton o'w a ? d
Barlow to swing its baton for a spell
at Carnegie hall, even if his first
program was of foreign origin. Mr
Barlow swung a cowboy's quirt be-
fore he ever waved a baton, worked
in lumber camps and engaged in
other uniquely American occupa-
tions before his career as a musi-
cian.
He caught the real American
idiom, in speech and music and
in his 15 years conducting the
CBS orchestra, he played Amer-
ican composers and fostered
American genius. In 1940, he
was awarded a certificate of
merit by the National Associa-
tion for Composers and Conduc-
tors as "the outstanding native
Interpreter of American music”
daring that season.
When he was around 17, Mr. Bar-
low left his home at Plain City,
Ohio, where he was born, for a job
on a Colorado ranch, near Denver.
He rode an Old Paint and rode an
Old Dan and made the little dogies
git along for about two years and
liked it so well that he almost made
it a business However, he was di-
verted to the University of Colorado,
where he swarmed all over the mu-
sic department in his plee club and
orchestral activities. A necessary
sabbatical interval of heaving logs
and slabs in an Oregon lumber camp
landed him at Reed college. Oregon,
where he picked up an AB. de-
gree, a scholarship at Columbia uni-
versity, and $25. Thus accoutred,
he crashed New York, conducted
choral societies and made his debut
as an orchestra conductor at the
Peterborough, N. H.. MacDowell fes
tivals in 1919.
As an aside, lie had served as
sergeant with the AEF. He con-
ducted the American National
orchestra from 1923 to 1925, and
joined CBS in 1927. High musi-
cal dignitaries were inclined to
high-hat the radio then, as a
medium for serious music. Mr.
Barlow stepped right into the
classics and has been a pioneer
in proving that no subtlety of
tone or musicianship is beyond
the capacity of a good loud-
speaker. The Philharmonic calls
him after quite a long absence
ol Americans from Its podium.
DON’T shush the war talk when
the children are around. An-
swer their questions and tell them
the truth. Such is the urgent advice j
to parents by Dr. Eduard C. Linde-
man, professor of sociology at the
New York School of Social Work.
"Evasions give the children a sense
of our untrustworthiness," says the
veteran educator, sociologist, hu-
manitarian and author, who was a
laborer until 21. Then he took a
B.S. degree at Michigan Agricultur-
al college and began social work
in Detroit and Lansing.

x of surgical dressings for the
armed forces in wartime is one
of the principal duties of the
American Red Cross.
Immediately after the outbreak
of the world war in Europe in
September, 1939, more than 500
Red Cross chapters throughout
the nation began making large
quantities of surgical dressings for
our army and navy. In addition,
a large number of dressings were
made to be used by Red .Cross
relief organizations caring for the
suffering civilian population in the
war-torn countries of Europe.
As the war progressed and
spread to more and more
nations of the world, this pro-
gram of surgieal dressings
was gradually enlarged and
extended to Red Cross chap-
ters in practicaDy every coun-
ty in the United States. To-
day more than 3,000 Red
Cross chapters are busily en-
gaged in making surgieal
dressings for our army and
navy according to standard
specifications and methods
furnished by them.
More than two million women
throughout the nation are now
making surgical dressings for our
armed forces under this program.
By the end of October, 1942, they
had made more than a hundred
million dressings of all kinds and
were embarking on a very large
program for the coming year.
The making of surgical dressings
is a very important work in which
nearly every woman can partici-
pate, no matter where she is lo-
cated or how little time she can
spare.

Sailors generally believe that
porpoises bring luck when they
follow a ship. This is a very old
story. It dates from the days
when people believed in a sca-god
who was constantly at war with
the spirits of the winds. This sea-
god was supposed to be attended
always by dolphins.
Now porpoises are very similar
to dolphins, so if a sailor secs
porpoises gambolling about his
ship he knows the sca-god is for
the time victorious over storms
and gales, and therefore the voy-
age will be prosperous.

To broil steak, grease the rack
•f the broiler. Place the meat on
rack close to the tyeat. Sear it
quickly on one side, season with
salt and pepper, turn and sear on
other side. Lower the rack or the
heat to allow steak to finish cook-
ing. Season and add a piece of
butter before serving. Rare steak
is juicy and flavorful and is often
preferred to well-done steak. Do
not pierce center of steak when
turning.

Both were very proud of their
vocal abilities: for months they
had squabbled over the question
as to which possessed the better
voice. At last, to settle bets they
had made with each other, they
arranged to give a recital before
an eminent professor and abide by
his judgment.
When they had concluded, the
professor turned to the first, shak-
ing his head sorrowfully.
“You’re the worst singer I’ve
ever heard,” he said.
"Hurrah!” shouted the other.
"Come on I Pay me that fiver!”
"One moment, please,” said the
professor, quietly. “You
well, you can’t sing at all!”
