Your Old Hat Worth $110
In Big Toronto 'Price War'
Toronto, Ont. (U.R) That old straw hat or what have you In
straw hat you nearly threw
away last summer is worth $110
here' Friday.
The old broom that has been
cluttering up' the closet has a
value of $20. And you can get
$200 for the radio that you
bought when you were a kid in
school.
Not In cash, of course only
if you trade them in and buy a
television set or a refrigerator
or a vacuum cleaner.
Ridiculous Values
A new kind of "price war"
has hit Toronto, and it features
what looks like ridiculous trade
in values.
R. T. Barnes, secretary of the
Retail Merchants association,
said the idea was to cut the ini
tial down payments on the items
involved, thus making it both
easier for the customer to buy
and for the store to sell.
The Better Plumbing company
carried huge advertisements in
the papers, giving a trade-in al
lowance of $110 "on anything"
if you buy a new refrigerator.
You can trade in "anything"
from an old broom to your old

Tacoma (U.R) Coastguards
men Friday searched for the
body of a man whom Tacoma po
lice fear jumped 187 feet off
the Tacoma Narrows bridge
Thursday.
Officers found an automobile
abandoned in the bridge. In it

tification of William Julius Gad
baw, 38, Olympia.
Gadbaw had been . employed

He told workers he "felt sick

of U. S. military forces in the
Philippines-Formosa area will be
switched Friday from Gen. Mat
thew B. Ridgway to Adm. Ar
thur W. Bradford.
The Defense Department said
the transfer will "involve no
change in United States policy
in the Far East" It said the
switch has no connection with
truce negotiations in Korea or
the Japanese peace treaty.
these sensational "buys" the ad
vertisement said.
$200 Trade-In Offered
The Mayfair Radio company
offered a trade-in allowance of
$200 for "anything" on a com
bination 17-inch television, ra
dio and 3-speed record player.
Company officials said they
were accepting mostly old
radios.
The State Vacuum Stores,
Lt, advertised a $20-trade-in-value
"on your old broom on
the purchase of a brand new
1952 model vacuum cleaner."

Japanese Brides
Register Deadline
Is Next Wednesday
. Tokyo (U.R) The race be
tween love and law headed down
the home stretch Friday.
American consular officials
issued a "hurry up" reminder
to U. S. Army personnel, warn
ing they must register their
brides by March 19 if they want
to bring them back home.
Law To Expire -
Of some 8,000 weddings In
Japan involving U. S. service
personnel since 1945, nearly
7,000 have been American men
taking Japanese wives. Nearly
4,000 of these brides have left
Japan for the United States. The
reason for the rush is this: U. S:
public law 6, which enables
members of the armed forces to
iake Japanese brides to the Unit
ed States, expires next Wednes
day. Previously Extended
The situation has come up be
fore, but each time a new law
has extended the deadline. How
ever, nobody ever knows for
sure.
If a GI fails to register his
marriage on time, he can either
get the U. S. Congress to pass
a special law letting him bring
his bride home or else he can
hope the deadline is extended
again.

Can she make sheepshead broth,
County Cork style? Or rabbit
Ballyderrig? Or Irish hot pot? Or

Asking
Queries from clients. Q. Did
John MacCormack ever co-star
with Geraldinff Farrar at the
Metropolitan Opera? A. John and
Geraldine appeared together at
the Metropolitan in "Madame
Butterfly." Q. So the Aga Khan,
was presented by his followers
with his weight in diamonds.
How much does he weigh? A.
The Aga Khan weighs over 300
pounds. Q. You state Arthur
Murray said it was not true hus
bands did not like to dance, that
they just didn't like to dance
with their wives. Wasn't there a
song titled, "I Can Dance With
Anybody But My Wife?" A. Song
you mention was sung by Joe
Cawthorn in a musical show
many years ago. Believe it was
in "The Girl From Utah."
Asides
Dr. McClelland Olson, of Los
Banos, Calif., has been a reader
of the San Francisco Examiner
since 1888. That is, for 64 years,

In the Argentine Republic, ac
cording to law, all children must
be named after saints. My name
is Edgar Vincent Durlmg. There
was no St. Edgar I know of, but
there were at least three St. Vin
cents.
Get It Right
James Barton, now performing
with his customary brilliancy in
the stage hit, "Paint Your
Wagon," is frequently confused
with John Barton. The fact that
both these Bartons starred
"Tobacco Road" has added to the
confusion. John is the uncle of
James. It was James Barton who
starred for five years on Broad
way in "Tobacco Road. John
Barton played the same part on
the road for several years. In
cidentally. "TobaccoRoa d."
which had a Broadway run of
nearly eight years, was produced
for $6,200.
Horses Again
Now currently active is a 3
year-old thoroughbred named
"New Orleans." What was thfe
greatest thoroughbred ever
named after a city? It wasn't the
horse named "Brooklyn," which,
as far as I know, never won a
a race. I believe the honor should
go to that noble animal named
"Omaha, winner of the Ken
tucky Derby and many other im
portant stake races. There was,
however, also a Kentucky Derby
winner named "Spokane." And
from what history tells us the
horse named "Los Angeles,"
owned by "Lucky" Baldwin was
a very clever performer.
Vacationing Mayors
The taking of long and fre
quent vacations by mayors of
New York City is an old custom.
The present mayor of New York
has taken quite a few vacations
as did his predecessor, William
O Dwyer. However, the all-time
top vacation taker among New
York City mayors was Jimmy
Walker. During his first two
years in office Walker took vaca
tions totaling 143 days!
Seven Sisters
Note it announced there is to
be a film titled "Seven Sisters
of Seattle." This brings to mind
there was a delightful stage com
edy titled, "Seven Sisters," in

Plot of this play concerned the
efforts of a widow to adhere to
an old Hungarian custom of mar

older sisters remained spinsters
none of the younger sisters could

Pleas Hot
' It is remarkable what some
self-educated men can achieve. It
was recently discovered a sur
geon in the Royal Canadian Navy
was an impostor. The papers he
had proclaimed him a licensed
surgeon belonged to another
man. This impostor had never
attended a medical school. All
he knew about surgery he learn
ed from reading medical books.
Yet this man performed many
successful operations including
an extremely difficult one call
ing for the removal of a bullet
one-quarter of an inch from a
man's heart!
Substitute Plan
Given for Piping
Gas to Northwest
Washington UJ9 Pacific
Northwest. Pipeline Corp., Hous
ton, Tex., filed a new plan Thurs
day with the Federal Power
Commission for importing Cana
dian natural gas into the Pacific
Northwest
Substitute Proposal
The new swapping plan was
substituted for Pacific North
west's earlier proposal to build
a 2,175-mile pipeline from Texas
to the state of Washington at a
cost of $174,188,602. "
The new proposal calls for
Pacific Northwest to import
250,000,000 cubic feet ', of gas
daily from Alberta into the state
of Washington. About 25)000,000
cubic feet would be returned to
Canada at the Washington-Cana
dian border.
. Pacific Northwest also would
buy 225,000,000 cubic feet of gas
daily from Panhandle Eastern
Pipeline Co., Kansas City, at a
point near the international
boundary near River Rouge,
Mich. That gas would be rede
livered to Canadian Natural Gas
Pipelines, Ltd., for transmission
into Ontario and Quebec.

Change Opposed
Portland (U.R) T h e Oregon
State Board of Higher Education
Friday faced leal action if it
does not reconsider its decision
to keep the University of Oregon
dental school in Portland under
the control of the university.
The state dental association's
advisory council informed Ed
gar W. Smith, president of the
board of higher education, that
"we believe the recent action
taken by the board t place the
school under the University of
Oregon is direct refusal to ac
cept the responsibility placed
upon it by law."
The council asked the board
to reconsider its decision. But j -tate schools deal directly with
it warned that, if necessary, le-ihe board through the chancellor.
