In the event of an A-bomb or H-bomb attack on the District of Columbia, the 1,000 residents of Perryopolis have made a standing invitation to the gov ernment to "move In with us." They still believe that George Washington, founder of the town, was right when he called Perry opolis (then known as New Bos ton) the Ideal place for a capital city. Surveyed Town Washington helped survey and plan the building of the town, bought a tract near the center of the village and arranged for 11 streets to lead into It, as they do today. Some congressional, military and business leaders have urged that government offices be dis persed from their present con centration in Washington. They argue that an A-bomb or H-bomb attack would paralyze govern ment functions. One of Perryopolis' older fam ilies has records kept through the years which reveal that Washington wanted to establish the nation's capital farther in land than the present site on the Potomac river. The old family diary said Washington was ready to estab lish the capital at Perryopolis or some other suitable site in Fayette county when the col onies defeated the British.

Did I ever tell you I was a school teacher for a cou ple of years? 1 did all right fi nancially at it, too. But that is because I was also an athletic coach. It was at prep schools in Virginia and California. In addi tion to my salary, I received full living expenses. Had a vacation at Easter, another at Christmas and two and a half months in the summer. Pretty soft, what? Yep, I gave it up. Had a chance to get into the newspaper busi ness. I liked that better. Asking Queries from clients. Q. You say the majority of film stars women have gone wild about were or are less than six feet tall. Name a few of these under sized heart-throbs for a red haired subscriber who likes her men tall and terrific; around six feet two. A. Some Hollywood heart-throbs under six feet in height who deeply stirred the hearts of millions of females were Franvis X. Bushman, Ru dolph Valentino, John Gilbert, Charles Boyer and Clark Gable. Passing. By Lewis Moore, concert pianist from Texas. There have been many beautiful actresses and musical comedy stars from Texas who have achieved success in New York, but Mr. Moore is first concert pianist from the Lone Star state who has made a hit in the Big Town.

"The five essentials of happi ness," a very wise man observed, "are health, freedom, economic independence, congenial work and recriprocated love. And the most important of these is the last."

Collector's Item As youngsters Georgie Jessel, Walter Winchell and Georgie Price were members of Gus Ed wards' Song Revue company You knew that, no doubt. Well, anyhow, a San Franciscan tells me he has seen a copy of a piece of sheet music of Gus Edwards' song "If I Was a Millionaire," and that on the cover are the pictures of Masters Jessel, Win chell and Price. A copy of sheet music like that should certainly be a collector's item.

The captain of the ship describes the sick man's symp toms via radio. Doctor Guida or his associates name the reme dies.
