Applegate Enjoys Shows
Of New York on Passes
While Seeking Sea Ride
Editorial Booma Herald-Tribune,
New York City, June 36. 1033
To the Editor:
It trows lncreaalngly doubttul u
to whether Don and Dick ehould go
on and continue their trip around
the world, or Just aettle down here
In New York and become drama
erlttca for the beat newapapera in
town. About all we've done during
the laat week If go to awell shows,
and after having aeen them, wa re
port our reactlona to the drama
editors of the varloua papers about
town, who have made It poaalble for
ua to attend.
Laat week t mentioned having at'
tended "Mualo in the Air." The next
night we were Invited by my old
friend here, Walter raley, to the
Radio City Mualo Hall. It waa a pic
ture. Ellssa Landl and Warner Bai
ter In "X loved You Wednesday." It
haa no doubt been In Medford by
now, ao 1 need not mention how good
It was, but the etage ahow with It
waa great. The Maid of the Mlat,
which I mentioned from Niagara Falla.
waa the central theme, and the whole
thing waa almoat unbelievable In Ita
beauty.
Thealere Grow.
When I waa here laat year, the
Roxy theater waa the largest In the
world. Then they built the new
Roxy, even larger. And now the Music
Hall, under Roxy'a direction, too,
which la larger than either. And I
aald that New York hadn't changed I
The night after aeelng the movie,
wa went to "Tattle Tales," starring
Prank Fay and Barbara Stanwyck,
Boy, It was great, ray had hla own
name on the program 31 tlmea, and
hla wife In only alx places, which
didn't alt ao well until you'd aeen
the ahow. It waa one latiRh from
atart to finish, and Pay waa the whole
ahow. Barbara Stanwyck took a won
derful ovation on her re-portrayal of
the pulpit scene from "The Miracle
Woman." In fact we enjoyed the
whole thing Immensely. We were the
(tint of Burns Mantle, dramattlc
critic of the Dally News, on that oc
casion, i
The next few daya we didn't aea any
ahowa. but on Friday we went Into
the Herald Tribune editorial rooms,
and saw Mr. Newman, the theater
editor. Dee, he waa awell to ua. Bet
ter, even, than the others, although
that In Itself la almost unbelievable.
He got ua two .seat for "One Sun
day Afternoon." a stage play which
haa been a decided hit. And It should
be. It waa entirely different than
either of the other two atago ahowa.
The first waa a good musical comedy,
the second was a awell farce, and thla
waa a delightful comedy.
Who Said N. Y. Hard.
When wa went back to thank Mr.
Newman for hla kindness, he gave ua
two more tickets, thla time to a flrat
night show, "The Church-mouse."
Again, they were orchestra aeat. We
hardly know how to thank him. And
New York la aupposed to be "the"
hard-boiled town of the continent.
In all. we've seen 636.40 worth of
ataga ahowa, ao far.
On our way home each nlte, from
the theater district, which Is located
in the well-known "roaring fortiea,"
we paaa In front of the Hotel New
Yorker. And every night ws aee a
fight, The taxlcaba, of which New
York la reputed to have 40,000. line
up for four or five blocka toanare
their Tlctlms aa they come from the
hotel. Aa you can readily see. It would
be Impossible to line up across the
Intersecting streets, ao that leaves
four or five gapa In the line. Aa the
leading taxi moves away from the
front of the line, loaded, the others
all move up one place. And every
time thla happens, aomeone cruising
by In another cab trios to edge his
own way Into these Intersection gaps,
rather than wait hla turn.
Immediately this happens, the
driver behind goes Into a tantrum,
leapa from hla own cab, tears up to
ths one In front, and dlihea out a
lot of abusive Isngusge to the chtseler
In front. Now, sll this naturally does
not argue for close harmony among
the brethern, and all of them, aay,
Parmalee cab drivers will align them
selves with the Parmalee cab, and
all the Plve-boro drivers will Join
the festivities on the other side, and
among the 30 or 30 thus Involved,
they generally manage to make the
party go. The police. I think, sre
getting a Mt tired of thla game, for
they have to stop It when It gets too
boisterous each time. So far. It has
been quite a Job every night we've
gone by.
About s block from thla spot la
the restaurant In which we gener
ally eat. There Is one particular guy
behind the counter who doesn't sit
well on Don's disposition. They have
a regular fight every time we go In
there. We'd go somewhere else, but
thla one la the cheapest In the nei
ghborhood. Things went along In this
vein for a week or ao, and then we
framed the guy. Soon as he etartsd
to art arnart, we were to pull our
little set.
Halter Ouwlttrd.
Ws hadn't long to wait. Two mln- ,
utoe after we'd lined up, he atarted !
In. So first we dropped a quarter I
cm the floor, to show him that It was
NOT rlesn. and then we dropped It
over the counter Into the beef atew.
(Thla waa a cafeteria.) He chivied It
about with a fork for some minutes,
and by that time several customers
had become Interested In the chsse.
snd cheered him on encouragingly.
When h had finally retrieved the
coin, he had aome notion of passing
out the atew anyway, but he little
recked the ghoulish cunning of his
opponents. We hadn't dropped that
quarter In the atew In front of 33
people for nothlngl They put up an
awful howl, snd the guy had to dump
It out, and his boss put up another,
meanwhile we were clamoring, among
our apparently abject apologies, for
our vhangs. Never try to cross us, I
yo-sll.
Speaking of places to est, ws gen-
rally breakfast st place down the
atreet from our '"apartment" In j
dump run by a Jew. The waiters 'are
Italian, and the cook la Japanese. Our '
Undtorrt is a tircek. the chambimaid !
la Polish, and speaks Russian, snd
ws send our laundry to m Chinaman.
Ws wers invited out to the Bronx
Saturday to eat an Italian dinner
with aherry wine and the other
guests wers Jewtah. Cosmopolitan,
that'a what we're becoming.
Laat week we went down to the
sub-treasury building on Wall atreet
to get our pass-ports. I had my
birth certificate, sent by the state
bureau of vital statistics of Oregon,
and Don had s baptismal certtflcats
from aome town In California. We
both handed In our credentials, and
the Individual behind the desk, anx
ious to uphold the passports depart
ment's reputstlon for red-tape, pored
over It 'till he finally found s date
missing. The thing had the aeal of
the atate on It, when I was born, and
where, who the attending physician
was, the color of my hair and eyea.
and even confirmed the fact thst I
wss legitimate. Wss that enough for
thla gimlet-eyed minion of the pass
port office? NO I He said that It
lacked the Important feature of when
the record was entered on the state
books. Ssld that waa the Important
thing to the big shots In Waahlngton.
After he had disposed of ma In this
manner, he felt better, snd turned
to Don. Taking the baptismal cer
tificate, which had no seal on It at
all, and looking at me out of the cor
ner of his eys, hs said. "Yes, this
will do very nicely." I guess he didn't
know we were together, the sap. Luck
ily, I had several other documenta In
our room, proving that I had been
born, ao we atymled him the next
day, Phooey on those guys I i
St. Mary's Boys Score.
A couple of daya later ws went out
to the Statue of Liberty on our press
carda, and while atandlng gaping out
one of the port holee In the old lady'a
head, we aaw s couple of Saint Mnry'a
belt buckles on s pslr of enemlc look
ing Indlvldusls, ao we bulged out our
Santa Clara belt bucklea so that they
could see them, but darn little rise
thst got out of them. Don opened
negotiations by telling them that we
were from Santa Clara, that we were
big ahot newspaper correspondent
from the coast (this for the benefit
of a rsther good looking girl on the
edge of the audience, who paid no
attention to It), and that we knew
several guya at St. Mary'a. These two
sickly looking aamplea of American
studenthood murmured, "Oh, Is thst
so?" In a dlalntereated voice, as they
moved off. Then, ss tho they hsd
suddenly remembered their mannera.
added "Sorry we beat you again in
football thla year." O-r-r-r-rl They
wouldn't have felt ao auperclllous
about that, I think, if they'd remem
bered that even Oregon did thatl
How sre you, Prink?
Ah, There, Tolsteadl

Thla guy was paaslng them out to
everyone, and a algn about the 60c
gin waa In the front window, and atlll
no one paid a great deal of atten
tion to It. I don't know whether they
Just hsven't heard about the Noble
Experiment, or think that It haa been
repealed.
One would think that, ss long as
ws sre trying to get to Europe on a
boat, thla would be quits a column
on shipping newa, but to tell the
truth, we've hardly even seen the
water yet. We went out to Coney
Island, to aee If It were still ss foul
aa It looked last time, and after as
certaining that It moat certainly was,
we took a look at the Atlantic ocsan.
Don for he flrat time, and went on
home. ,
.Boat Trip DHayed.
Instead of trying the boats direct,
we've been going to the offices, and
trying to talk the president Into let
ting ua go, but that doesn't work. Bo
now we're trying the boats direct,
and that doesn't work either. But
It will. It'll take mors thsn this
measly little Atlantic ocean to atop
us.
Mr. Newman of the Herald Tribune
told ua to exhaust all our leada, and If
we didn't find anything that way,
to come back In and he'd go to the
shipping editor with us, snd maybe
we'd be able to find something that
way. I said before that he was a
swell guy.
Remember my saying that I was
going to try snd Interview Mclntyre?
Oot a card from him today. "Thanks
for your cordial letter (I laid It on
pretty thlckl) and gracious thought.
I sm off on s motor trip tomorrow,
but will be back In New York In three
weeks snd will be glad to see you
then. Cordially, o. O. Mclntyre.
So that'a that. Ws won't be here
three weeks from now probably, but
If we ere, I'll get that Interview after
all. At least I've got a card from
him. In hla own handwriting, too.
At least It's handwriting. I suppose
It's his.
' We're trying to get sn Interview
with Al Smith, now. I suppose he'll
be tsklng s trip to the top of the Em
pire Stste building, snd will bs un
able to see us. Oh, well, they'll sll
be trying to see US In a few more
years, after we discover a new conti
nent, or something. Maybe we al
ready have. Columbua didn't know
he'd discovered one either. I hops, In
ths historical statues they'll have of
me In the future, they won't ahow
the hole In my panta leg that I
burned trying to press the foul things
myself.
How Far Is Westf
There are two klda who live out In
ths Bronx that Don and t met In
Chicago, who have their picture In
the Bronx Home Newa today for being
so Intrepid as to get ss fsr West ss
Chicago on a hltch-hlklng trip. They
think they WERE west, In fact. Now
they're contemplating getting coon
akin caps and aqulrrel rifles, snd be
come guides in the Bronx Zoo,
It's funny ths way people hers
think they've been west when they
cross the Hudson river. Llks ths gtfy

A lady writes to say that she does not understand why an S-oyllnder
car does not cost more to run than a car with fewer cylinders. She
refers to my statement that our Ford V-8 develops more power on a gallon
of gas than any car we have made.
The use of 8-cylinders does not mean the addition of two or four
extra fuel consumers. It is not, for example, a 4-oylinder engine
multiplied by two. Our 8-oylinder engine takes the fuel supply of an
ordinary 4-cylinder engine and divides it eight ways. And why?
By reducing four larger explosions into eight smaller ones, we get
engine smoothness and quietness. Eight-cylinders indicate the way the
gas is used, not the amount It is Just the difference between'going '
upstairs in four long Jumps or in eight ordinary steps.
Two things use up gas bad engine design and useless car weight.
Besides having an engine that gets a high percentage of power out of the
fuel, the Ford V-8 has a light, strong body and chassis so that no power
' is wasted in moving excess weight.
The only extravagance about the new Ford V-8 engine is in the building
of it. The extravagance is ours the economy is yours.
The whole question of car economy needs clearing up. An economical
car gives economy all round. Price, operation, upkeep, all play their
part. If what you save on gas you lose elsewhere, that is not economy.
As to upkeep, our dealers say that in recent years the iaproved
quality of Ford cars has out down their repair business 50 per cent.
As to price with quality, Judge for yourself.
As to economy, here is the record of a stock car three weeks out of
shop in Oklahoma:
On a run of 10,054 miles at the rate of 1,000 Riles a day the Ford
V-8 gave 18.8 miles per gallon of gas. Not a drcp of water was added
to the radiator. The oil was changed once in 1,000 miles.
That should answer a lot of questions.

VICTORIA, B. 0-, July 1.-HJP) Al
bert (Scotty) Campbell, Seattle city
champion, won the Pacific Northwest
amateur chomptanshlp today, 3 And
3, putting Alan Taylor, of Vtctorto.
out in the finals after a hard battle
between the two 19-year-old young
sters, tn a match played much of the
time In a driving rain.
The Seattle youth, runner-up In
the national public links tournament
last year, proved his championship
caliber by taking sn early lead and
holding doggedly to It throughout
most of the day,- although Taylor
managed to pull up all square on the
27th.
In the first three holes, he look
a one-hole lead, and at the end of
nine he Increased It to three up. At
the end of the first 18 holes, when
the two drenched contestants went
to lunch, Campbell was still out In
front, two up.
In the finals of the women's cham
pionship, also over the 36 -hole route,
Mra. Vera Hutching, of Vancouver,
won her sixth title, overwhelming
Miss Marlon McDougall, of Portland,
another. 19-year-old player, 7 and 6.
Her steady game proved too much for
her youthful opponent, although she
had led only 3 up at the end of the
first 18-hole round.-
