MRS. ARCHER: (soothingly)
He's been here three times now,

enough.
CORLISS: (sulkily) All right.

Merry-Go-Round
Continued From Page 2
Lord Louis Mounlbaltcn to com
mand the Burma campaign.
After the Quebec conference,
Churchill came to Washington,
spent several days nt the White
House and asked that General
Wedemeyer be appointed U. S.
aid and adviser to Lord Mount
batten. Churchill emphasized he
wanted the best young general
in the American army to help
Mountbatteri in tho Burma cam
paign. Ho did not emphasize tho
fact Wedemeyer had also been
the chief opponent to British war
plans and they would like to got
him out of Washington. Wede
meyer was a sperialist on Ger
many. Ho had lived in Germany,
knew many top-ranking Nazi
generals, was familiar with their
strategy. Roosevelt bowed to
Churchill, and Wedemeyer went
to India.
However, Roosevelt did not bow
to Churchill when the prime min
ister adroitly suggested that Mar
shall, the man who wanted the
cross-channel invasion, be placed
in command of that invasion.

MRS. ARCHER: Darling have
you been meeting this Boy?
CORLISS:: Only once, Mother.
Yesterday afternoon ond that
was just by accident. Honestly,
I swear. .
MRS. ARCHER: Is that why
he called just now? Did you
make a date for tonight?
CORLISS: Well, no, not a date.
I'm not allowed to make dates.
But I told him we'd be home,
and I said I was sure you'd be
glad to have him come over.
MRS. ARCHER: (smiling sigh)
Oh, darling I used to think
when you wore five that you
couldn't bo more trouble and
now look at you.
She takes off the dress which she
has been pinning onto Corliss.
At this moment the telephone
rings, and before her mother can
stop her, Corliss grabs it.
CORLISS: (into phone) Hello?
Oh, hello, Daddy.
Somewhat relieved to know that
it's only her husband, Mrs. Arser
starts to put away her sewing.
CORLISS: (Into phone) Oh, you
poor darling wait a sec. (she
swivels the phone around so
that she can still hear what her
father Is saying, but so that she
can talk to her mother) He's' at
the. corner of Washington and
Fourth, Mum. He wants to
know if you'll devoto a pint of
gasoline to picking him up he
says he's exhausted and in
tears!
MRS. ARCHER: Washington
and Fourth? Why doesn't he
take the bus?
CORLISS: (Into phone) Mym
says why don't you take the
bus? (she is convulsed with
giggles and relays what Mr.
Archer Is saying to her mother)
He soys he's got a hundred
pound sack of fertilizer with
him, and they won't let him on
the bus!
MRS. ARCHER: (amused) All
right I'll pick him up.
She starts towards the hall.
CORLISS: (into phone) All
right, angel rescue's at hand.
Mum's just leaving. Goodby.
She blows a couple of kisses into
the phone and hangs up.
