Vets, Families to Occupy Colony Tuesday; Applications Show Tribulations of Returning CIs (Pictures! on page I) Br Isabel Chi Ids Roaebraugh City Editor, The Statesman Final inspection of 24 newly completed apartments at the vet erans housing colony on South 16th street will be made Monday by representative from the federal public housing authority. Hous ing Manager Joe H. Hopkins said Saturday, and "moving day" is expected to become an actuality Tuesday for 24 local families the first accommodated at the site from a list of approximately 400 applicants. Among the families who will live there is at least one separat ed since the young veteran hus band and father returned to his employment In Salem. The wife and their two children have been living in a basement apartment in the overcrowded home of oth er members of the' family in an other city, and one of the children is not in good health. Second Brother Dae One young former navy man, his wife and child who have been living with "her people" (a large family) may get into one of the apartments by the time the sec ond brother in the wife's family has come home from the service. Still another apartment in that court will house a man and wife and their two children, who will be making their home all togeth er for the first time. The adults have been living in a one-room cottage, while the children, ages three years and six months, re spectively, have been "boarded out." An elderly landlady will bless the joint city-federal reconver sion project which is taking her renters out of crowded quarters. The 24-year-old child "annoys" her, the youngster's parents frank ly declared as they- applied for living quarters -in -the veterans' colony, but no other quarters could be found. Baby Dae 'Any Time A couple who with their one child now occupy two unconnect ed rooms in a house where they are provided with no warm wat er, must share bathroom facilities and are limited to a bath apiece a week, will get one of the new apartments, perhaps before the second child is born, although it is "due any time," the application record indicates. A veteran's mother with two young daughters and one young son will occupy another apart- Mat. Dally From 1 TM. - NOW! AND-OH! SO VERY FUNNY! '10 UlUHil My.tery Co-Hit! PI as Fox News! CONT.

Despite difficulties, many of the veterans who have applied are already dividing their small liv ing quarters. Sometimes they have with their own families the' widow of a friend, the wife of a buddy still in the service, a sister or a wife's sister. One family of four adults, one of whom is to have a child soon, may move from two rooms over a garage into a slightly roomier veterans' colony apartment. Apartments Vary The apartments vary somewhat to accommodate different sized families. But they have certain things in common. The lattices over the doorways suggest red roses, and the leveled ground and great oak trees around them sug gest green lawns. "We're putting in a lawn no matter what the project may eventually provide," declares Mrs. Joe Hopkins, first veteran's wife to reside in the colony. Her husband is manager there, and she handles much of the details of bookkeeping and in forma tioff service at a desk and a telephone extension In her apartment while her two small children play where she can watch them. Cleanliness, fresh paint, smart distribution of furniture and col orful, useful articles in the Hop kins home offer encouragement to the incoming young wife who may see the small apartments as not much better than the crowded place she is leaving. Kitchen, din ing and living room are to all in tents and purposes one room, but Mr. and Mrs. Hopkins have used a bookshelf to indicate a dividing line and to hide the kitchen range from view of anyone sitting in the "parlor. Z Beeroo In Bo o Two bedrooms and a bath, how ever, will look like luxury ' to many a family. One applicant, whose need was judged sufficient to guarantee him and bis family a place in the colony (the judging is done by a committee of high calibre men who would be nagged to death if their names were pub- lished) has responded that he is not interested. He has seen the apartments and finds them "too small." A number of the 172 family dwelling units in the colony will gal to married veterans attending or planning to attend Willamette university. With the exception of this group, other applicants all appear to be. earning fair salaries or j wages, and the problem with thm is not one of financing liv ing quarters but of finding them. Rent is reasonable, and furniture of I a standard type is available through the federal agency which has provided the city with the little houses. Plain, western-style wooden furniture and a limited chjoice of kitchen furnishings is provided, with rental according to the amount used. Thousands of acres of petrified prehistoric trees lie strewn over the ground in the famous Petrified Forest of northeastern Arizona. Some of these marble-hard logs are 250 feet long.

Myrna Loy, Don Ameche Share Honors in Grand Theatre Film t Few pictures since "Going My Way" carry the heart-warming appeal of "So Goes My Love," now playing at the Grand theatre. The new film, most recent of the Jack 11. Skirball-Bruce Manning produc tions, is a Universal release. It's the story of Hiram Maxim, famed inventor, but instead of dealing with the devices he created, it tells a warmly human story of a man and woman who meet by ac cident, fall in love, get married and have children. The screen play, by Manning and James Clif den. is based upon he Maxim book "Genius In the Family." Myrna Loy and Don Ameche are co-starred for the first time in this fine film. Miss Loy, who de voted most of the war years to Red Cross work, is back on the screen and she really clicks with an adult performance worthy of Academy consideraUon. Ameche again proves that he can play practically anything thrown in his lap.
