Last Tuesday night was the
first time this column ever got
right down to the eating of
Squirrel stew, to the extent of
going back for seconds, that it.
We have always found it too
peppery, or too something every
time. This situation has been go-
ing on since 192,8, so it was
with a great deal of pleasure
that we flapped our lip over
some really larapping squirrel
stew. After the second bowl we
decided, “To heck with the pore
little squirrels, pass the stew
pot.” Bill Berry can take the
bows on this particular concoc-
tion (a word which the post
(master will immediately snarl
at). Since this column would not
conform to its usual style, if
we couldn’t find one critical
point, we well say that by 7:30,
we were ready to eat nails any-
way, so our description of this
jstew might have been a hit
tainted by starvation. However,
we let the word stand — best
squirrel stew we ever got mixed
up with.

Tom Cunningham, who is one
of our favorite characters, hav-
ing the natural wit of all Irish-
men, opined this after the wreck
June 19, “It sure beats me how
I always get sat on by some
fellow twice my size in any car
accident.” Tom allows as how
this was number four in, which
some big ox squtfthed him out
better than a pancake . . . hut
then of course, bless his Irish
heart, he’s not complaining, be-
cause he’s got the luck of the
Irish with him so far, be gorra.

Hope my Kerens friends will
(bear with me on the puny ef-
forts at critical survey of any
summer musicals we attend. Our
first of the season, was “Okla-
homa.” 'Nobody can capsule the
problems of the State Fair Mu-
sic Hall better than Tony Zoppi
of the Dallas News when he
states that the acoustics in that
place are terrible indeed.
There has been much to-do
publicity wise about Miss Pow-
ell’s ability to deep soulful roles
and she has complained loud and
long about M-G-M’s unwilling-
ness to put her into heavy leads.
(Just between us girls, even with
two marriages and four kids un-
der her belt, Janie is still the
girl next door, and she had bet-
ter leave it that way, because

no amount of goo on her face
frnakes her look anything but an
(ingenue. To her credit, no one
tan complain of her voice or her
petite figure and doll-like face
—most of us uninitiated into
the arty phase of theatre could
just look at the li’l old darling
all day, she’s that beautiful.
We feel sure some of her ad-
mirers will mention to her that
she has a movie star’s tendency
bf playing to the character on
the stage rather than, the aud-
ience in front. And, Miss Powell,
honey, any old hammy stage
personage knows you gotta play
to that live audience, but we
feel sure her drama coach will
jpoint this out, and with one or
two more shows, she ought to
be a pretty good lady of the
theatre, doncha know . . . now
‘why do you suppose a purty lit-
tle thing like that wants to be
another Kim Novak. As for this
column, we are plumb fed up
With sleazy women like Novak,
in or out of the theatre.

The boss is screaming ‘enough’
so stay tuned (if you will par-
don such a word) for next week’s
column in which I shall divulge
a number of items that will
make you sit up and breathe
hard—don’t miss it!

like to gamble?
Games of chance may be fun if ihe
stakes are not too high. But when you
risk the security of yourself and family
by buying less than the best property
insurance, then gambling is no fun.
Your peace of mind can never be
complete as long as your home is cov-
ered by next best insurance, and if you
should suffer a loss the results could
spell disaster.
So take the gamble out of your in-
surance program by letting your local
capital stock agent sell you “risk-proof”
capital stock insurance. He knows his
business and represents safe, reliable
companies.
