BALTIMORE, MD. — For four

worked side by side a t the M aryland
Drydock without recognizing each
other, and then an Associated P ress
dispatch from E ngland brought
them together. A chain of unusual
events followed.
Powell noticed in the story from
England a fam iliar nam e—Pvt. Paul

N ever before in B re-d w ay ’s his
tory has ballet enjoyed such
popularity as it does at present. In
the past, Broadway looked on bal
let as strictly “ long h a ir’’ or “ a rty .”
But a change cam e and now every
hit show along the stre e t has ballet
in one form or another. Even Billy
Rose, who is said to know a good
show when he sees one, has signed
the classical ballerina M arkova
for a m usical next fall. So, the m an
in the stre e t knows som ething
about ballet. T hat brings m e up to
a story told the o ther evening by
Edwina S eaver who is the dancing
Venus in the prologue of “ Helen
Went to T roy,” in addition to her
stint as ballet dancer throughout the
show.

D uring re h earsa ls of the m usical,
getting a tax i to and from the thea-
ter was a task th at taxed the in-
testinal fortitude of even experi-
enced troupers. Hence when Miss
Seaver, one rainy evening, stepped
out of her home in the E a st Sixties
and hailed a cab, she did so list
lessly, thinking it and many others
would m erely pass by. To her vast
su rp rise, the cab drew up to the
curb. No sooner had the elated Miss
S eaver seated herself than the d riv
e r looked back and inquired: “ You
a ballet d a n c e r? ” Miss Seaver, no
end puzzled, replied that she was
and was bound for the theater. With
her answ er, the d riv er swung into
high and passed through two red
lights with all the ease of the daring
young m an on the you know what.

p o w e r lines 5 7 ,0 0 0 volts hot!
• When you have to work on a thick copper line carrying
a walloping surge o f chained lightning—you soon learn that
it takes plenty ot “ know-how" in this electric business.
l or an example, take PGE's job in enlarging service to
one o f America's greatest shipyards. The high-voltage lines
had to be worked “ hot"— with deadly charges o f electricity
pouring through continuously— because to “cut" the lines
would interrupt production.
The entire operation, minute by minute, was laid out on
paper by a PGF. engineering "general staff." Then a “ task
force" o f experienced PGE linemen and groundmen went
to work with “hot-line tools,” which have insulated handles
6t feet long. They built special working structures high into
the air, and worked steadily through the day moving a
high-tension line on the cross-arms; lowering other high-
tension lines; installing an “alley arm” on the pole; raising
a new 57,000-volt line; installing a switch; guying the pole
against new strains; stringing and pulling taut the new
copper; clamping a “ tap” in place, and energizing the new
circuit. All this was done without an instant's interruption
to the shipyard's war-work.
Both in war and in postwar—there is no substitute
for “ know-how."
