Children Help Suburb
Check on Fire Perils
CLEVELAND, O. (UP) — One
ounce of prevention equals a gal-
lon of water, believe the citizens
of suburban Lakewood, who have
won for their city annual fire-pre-
vention trophies for 11 consecu-
tive years.
•‘Wo do our beat, fire-fighting on
the school blackboard," said
Charles A. Delaney, fire chief, giv-
ing his fireless-c.ommunity recipe.
The suburb is tempting prey for
hungry flames, according to De-
laney.
"The construction here is 90 per
cent frame, we have strong winds
from Lake Erie and the houses are
built close together,” he said. "Our
fire-fighting apparatus mostly is
from 12 to 15 years old. Yet we
have had but two fire deaths in 12
years and only 2.4 per cent of
Lakewood fires exceed $1,000 in
damages.’’ ,

MIAMI, Fla. (UP) — Italian
greyhounds whose lineage goes
back farther than the Caesars are
being developed here by a former
school teacher, Mrs. Blanche Cor-
dier, who operates the smallest
dog racing oval in the world.
Mrs. Cordier, a native of France,
gave up teaching at Houston, Tex.,
10 years ago to devote her time
to breeding and schooling the lit-
tle greyhounds and now has a
kennel of 90 dogs.
The Italian greyhound has the
same features as the big, heavy
racing greyhounds used at differ-
ent dog raoing tracks in this coun-
try. However, the Italian grey-
hound is much smallef, weighing
about 6 pounds, or about 54
pounds less than the average
weight of racing greyhounds.
At the one-sixteenth of a mile
track, which Mrs. Cordier’s hus-
band built for her on the edge of
Miarpi, she trains the dogs to do,
everything that the bigger breed
of greyhounds exhibit. Everything,
however, is in miniature, and Mrs.
Cordier points to the possibility of
developing a portable race track
which could be trucked about the ,
country for one-night stands.
Italian greyhounds, Mrs. Cor- |
dier said, have a natural instlnce !
for racing. She has trained them I
to break from a box and chase a. i
mechanical rabbit around the I
one-sixteenth mile oval, which is
the same system used with the
larger greyhounds.
Mrs. Cordier’s first visit to a
Florida dog racing track gave her
the idea of developing her Italian
greyhounds into racers. She im-
ported additional dogs from Eu-
rope at a cost of $250 each and
began a period of extensive train-
ing.
According to Mrs. Cordier, the
lineage of Italian greyhounds
dates back 10,000 years to the days
of Ur of the Chaldees, the Egyp-
tians, Greeks and Romans, when
they were known as "dogs of no-
bility."

over.
"I won’t gaw,” said Roy. "Wake

“Listen,” said Roy. “Not a

A HEAVY tread sounded in the
hall.
“That’s him,” exclaimed Wrtfrid
in a hoarse whisper. "Hand me
that golf club, quick!”
“Steady! That’s only Mr. Can-
ning going to his room. When
he’s out of the way, we’ll sneak
down."
A few minutes later, with Roy’s
electric torch lighting the way,
they stood in the abode of the
skeletons. Above them the Gobi
dinosaur leered out of sightless
hollows where once had been eyes.
Wilfrid shivered. “Nasty-looking
brute, that!”
“Yes. He was a bad actor. I
understand he was carnivorous.
Used to chew flesh back in the
good old prehistoric days.”
“Hey,” said Wilfrid. “I,;.
How 1he devil do you think I'm
going to sleep?”
Roy laughed. “Oh, he doesn’t
care for steak any more. You’ll
be okay. Take that corner by the
window! The blanket and stuff
are outside. I’ll hand them in.”
"Here, what the devil’s this
for?” demanded Wilfrid, as Roy
was pushing things through the
winder..'. “Why would I want a
banjo tonight?"
“Thought you might play it if
you got lonely,” said Roy.
“Ugh,” said Wilfrid.
Roy withdrew from the window
and re-entered the house. Pro-
ceeding quietly, he gained Billy’s
room. Tiptoeing in, he aroused
the youngster.
"Got it?” he asked, in a low
voice.
“Sure. In the closet."
said Roy evenly, “that your
brother Ronald is planning some
act of personal violence on you
tonight. Murder or something.”
“Murder or something. What
the devil do you mean?”
“He’s desperate," Roy said.
“Evidently this match has preyed ATR.
on his mind. He’s walking up and 11’1
down the lawn now, muttering to sj/jes
himself.” 1 -
“Good God!” ejaculated Wilfrid.
“I’ve thought it all out," Roy
said swiftly. “There’s only one
place. That’s down in the mu-,
seum.”
Wilfrid considered. “You t|iink
that’s the best plan?”
“I’m sure of it. Can’t tell
what’ll happen when a fellow goes
off his nut. But he’d never look
for you in the museum. I’ve made
all the preparations. Got a blan-
ket and a pillow downstairs.
Wilfrid arose. “Well, if you
think it’s best, Herring, it’s okjiy
by me. That dirty louse is capable
of anything.”
“Exactly. You can’t-be too care-
ful. Hark! What’s that?”

CHAPTER X
TT was 11 o'clock and long since
A the shadows had fallen over
the house of Canning. Mr. Royal-
ton Augustus Herring was whis-
pering into a delicate ear.
“Darling," he breathed, “do you
think all is quiet within?”
“Well,” said Barbara, “the
twins, Mother, and Billy ought to
be fast asleep. Father, when last
seen, was in the museum. But I
wouldn't be surprised if he retired
at any minute.”
Roy got up. "Then, light of my
life, I must leave thee. ’She hour
has struck. I could do with a last
kiss.”
He got it without a struggle.
Suddenly her arms went around
him. “Oh, Roy!”
“Oh, darling!”
“I’m betting on you.”
The chest of Royalton Augustus
Herring expanded. “It's in the
bag. Never felt so confident in
my life. Wonderful what a couple
of kisses will do.”
“Yes.”
“There’s time for a couple
more.”
“No, there isn’t. Well, gOod
luck. Do you want me to do any-
thing?”
“Outside of leaving that window
open, your only function is to go
to bed and dream about me.”
“That’ll be a cinch. Good night,
darling!”
She slid away, leaving Mr. Her-
ring walking along the downy
edge of a cloud. He lit a cigaret.
Gosh, it was hard to have to en-
gage in serious business after an
evening like this. And yet, it was
imperative. He waited a few min-
utes in order to get all the way
back to earth. Then he crept
through a certain window into
the house and passed upstairs like
a ghost.

---. RONALD PEYTON lay in
his bed, both hands at his
. He had been told to go
to sleep and forget golf matches
and he had done just that. Be-
neath the covers his bosom heaved
like a miniature, but restive,
ocean. On a chair beside the bed
an alarm clock, set for 5:30,
blended its ticking with Ronald’s
stertorous breathing in a kind of
weird syncopation.
It is a dead certainty that Mr.
Peyton would have slept until the
alarm spoke in the gray dawn,
had he not received what his sub-
conscious brain diagnosed as a
poke in the ribs. The poke was
not hard enough, however, to faze
a sleeper of Ronald’s caliber. It
was repeated, therefore, with
more force.
Ronald sat up, befuddled with
slumber. As he did so he was
dimly aware of a crushing,
mashing sound at his side, then
the soft closing of a door. He
started, and something small and
furious struck him between the
eyes, something that whirred,
stung and seemed to hang on,
and a sharp pain stabbed him into
complete wakefulness. But before
he could move there was another
whirr. The pain leaped from his
forehead to his chin, then flew to
his right thumb. Ronald gave
tongue.
“Hey,” he roared. “Ow! Ouch!
My God, what is it?” He stumbled
out of bed and crashed against the
chair. The alarm clock rblled off
onto the floor with a tinny bang.
And then something bit Ronald in
‘Lay off!!, the neck.
In a panic Ronald switched on
the lights. There on the bed lay
a hornets’ nest crushed into a
shapeless mass. Between Ronald
and the nest the dispossessed
householders were swarming in
hordes. And, unjustly, their w.ath
seemed to be centered upon one,
Ronald Peyton. Already his head
felt twice its normal size and his
fingers and wrists were aching.
Flailing furiously with both hands,
Ronald stared at the bed for a
split fraction of a second. Then,
with sudden ' decision, he went
elsewhere. Wrenching open the
door, he slammed it after him
with a terrific bang and rushed
out into the hall.
At the same moment Mr. J.
Pemberton Canning forsook his •
own bedchamber.

RITES SAID FOR
WPATHREATER
NEW YORK. (UP) •— Final
rites were said today over the
federal theater, killed by congres-
sional economy, and more than
3,500 actors, writers, musicians
and technicians started looking
for jobs.
Spokesmen for the group said
they would “continue to fight” for
the restoration of the government-
sponsored theatrical projects.
Three Works Progress Admin-
istration productions, “Pinocohio,"
"Sing for Your Supper,” and "Life
and Death of an American,” closed
last night.
The cast revised the version of
“Pinocchio” for the final program.
After the third act, a three-foot
effigy of the marionette-hero was
brought on the stage. The cast
recited in concert:
“So let the bells proclaim our
grief
“That his small life was all too
brief.”
Then Allen Frank, portraying
the puppet-maker, took the figure
fr. his arms and said:
“Thus passed Pinocchio, born
December 23, 1938 (the date of the
premiere) died June 30, 1939, kill-
ed by an act of congress.”
One spectator shouted "Wood-
rum (Rep. Clifton A. Woodrum,
D„ Va.,) did it.” Other specta-
tors called “we want him to live.”
The effigy was laid upon a ta-
ble, all candles were removed from
a huge cake used in the closing
scene, the cast sang a lullaby, and
the fairy queen repeated a jingle
which she had spoken earlier in
the play:
“This is the lesson of the pen-
ny;
“Some have too few, some have
too many
“And there
haven’t any.”
The audience then
___began to
chant “we want the federal the-
ater.” Most of the crowd re-
mained until the cast emerged in
street garb, carrying signs that
read:
“The people raised the curtain—
the tories brought it down;” "Fed-
eral theater murdered tonight;”
“The Federal theater is dead—
long live the federal theater."
The players and audience then
went to Times Square, center of
the theatrical district, paraded
briefly, then held a meeting at
which actors and actresses urged
a continued fight for the restor-
ation of the federal project.
