The popular sohg "April In
Paris" has inspired many Amer
icans to plan to get to the French
capital in the very early spring.
April is not a pleasant month in
Paris. It is usually quite damp
and chilly there at that time.
When Vernon Duke and E. Y.
Ilarburg wrote the song "April
In Paris'" neither had ever been
to Paris in April. In fact, Har
burg had never been to Paris at
all. The best months in Paris are
May, June and October.
Asking
Queries from clients: Q.
Where and how did Lena Home
begin her singing career? A.
Lena started as a chorus girl in
the Cotton Club in Harlem. She
was 16 at the time. Q. Has the
Biblical tale of the Prodigal Son
ever been -dramatized for the le
gitimate stage? A. Yes, sir. The
successful play of the yesteryear
titled "The Wanderer" was based
on the Biblical story you refer
to. Q What is the longest high
way in the United States?. A.
That would be U.S. Highway No.
6, known as the Grand Army of
the Republic Highway, which
runs from Provincetown, Mass.,
to Long Beach, Calif., a distance
of 3,652 miles.
Asides
A Los Angeles blonde named
Beverly Nin O Malley has been
marripri and divorced thirteen
times. If that isn't the world's
record for divorces, what is? . . .
The Argentine Republic has an
anti-tipping law. You can be ar
rested for giving a tip there or
taking one. Some sections of the
United States have had anti-tip
ping legislation but it lias never
been successfully enforced.
Brides
At French weddings the bride
doesn't toss out a bouquet. She
throws a earter. The superstition
is that the bachelorette who
catches the earter will be mar
ried within a year. An interest
ing idea. An American young
couple wishing a wedding cere
mony somewhat unusual
could have the bride dressed
in blue. The marriage proph
ecy says, dressed -in blue
your lover will be true." The
bridesmaids could be dressed in
red. Then, as the gown would
cover the "something blue" re
quirement for the bride's attire,
he could wear a red garter.
Then she could toss out the red
garter for the bachelorettes pres
ent to try to catch.

stairs at the White House:
President Eisenhower made
his first visit to Thomasville,
Ga., to shoot quail on the estate
of Treasury Secretary George
M. Humphrey in the early winter
of 1954.
The Roseland Lincoln-Mercury
company of Thomasville
provided the Chief Executive
with a fine and gleaming ve
hicle during his stay. Shortly
after Mr. Eisenhower departed
from Thomasville the following
ad appeared in the local paper:
"George Washington slept
here.
' "Sorry, we mean that Ike used
this beautiful Lincoln automo
bile during his stay in Thomas

presidential beauty at a substan-
Utah Airstrip'
Most Isolated
Hanksville, Utah (U.R) A
leading candidate for 'the most
isolated airways station in the
continental United States is the
Civil Aeronautics Authority
auxiliary landing field and com
munications station at Hanks
ville. .
And well it might. Hanksville
is just about as far as you can
get from anywhere in the coun
try and still be just about no
where. Hundreds of aerial travelers
pass over or around it daily, but
few usually just the crews of
the airliners, the air freighters
and the military craft know
it's there.
Those passengers who ' do
know of its existence include
several planeloads who directly
owe their lives to the fact that
the field is in operation.
Plana Lost Altitude
Like the more than 50 per
sons aboard a big commercial
airliner flying the Los Angeles
Chicago direct line route in
August, 1951. Fire broke out in
one motor. The plane was losing
altitude.
One in the barren wastelands
of southeastern Utah, with its
cedar-covered mesas, deep can
yons and high cliffs, there are
few places a big plane might
set down safely.
But the pilot of the craft knew
that Hanksville was there. He
made it to the emergency fieid,
set down quickly on the long
graded runways, and all was
well.
The passengers piled out
and remained on the field until
spare planes came along to pick
them up for the rest of their
trip.

This interesting item about the
Eisenhower Lincoln comes to
light somewhat late but it does
point up a strange situation. In
a lot of towns visited by the
President, the borrowed cars
actually retail for more than the
normal list price after he de
parts. Al Lansing, writing in the cur
rent Collier's Magazine about
Mr. Eisenhower's fishing, quotes
one of the President's old Den
ver buddies, Aksel Nielsen, as
saying "Ike likes fishing better
than golf."
This will come as a distinct
shock to Ed Dudley, the golf
professional at the Augusta Na

CAA chief at Hanksville for
more than five years, shows that
at least three other aircraft have
made similar emergency land
ings on the field since it was
commissioner early in 1946.
Countless others reached their
destinations safely because of
radio signals sent out by Dalton
and his crew, who man an intri
cate radio center 24 hours a day,
seven days a week.
. Most of the time their opera
tion is routine sending out
weather information, giving po
sitions and helping with chang
es in flight plans.
But the emergencies are the
things that "make it pay off," ac
cording to Claud Gardner, for

tarily, too" transferred to the
field.
In between shifts, Dalton,
Gardner,. R. J. Cook and Earl
Bracy, the radio operators,
spend their time hunting and
fishing when the weather per
mits, or prospecting for urani
um. On these spare-time proj
ects, they frequently are joined
by Earl Dounahay, staff electri
cian, and Ernest Shirley, air
ways maintenance technician.
Near Uranium Mine
Hanksville, about 200 "miles
southeast of Salt Lake City, is
only a few miles from the fabu
lous uranium mine that pros
pector Vernon Pick recently
sold to financier Floyd Odium
for more than $9,000,000.
Until recently, the roads into
Hanksville from Green River to
the north, Richfield to the west
and Blanding to the southeast,
all more than 50 miles away,
were impassable in bad weather:

installed near the President's

At any rale, the President will
put the Nielsen and Lansing

when he arrives at the club for

The Tamarisk Country' Club at

indicate how proud the Southern
Calif ornians were to have the
Eisenhowers visit them last year.
On one side of the mirror is a
picture of a palm tree with a
small sign at the base proclaim
ing it as "Ike's Tree."
This was the tree wnere a bad
presidential iron shot nestled at
the base of the palm and he shot

The other side of the mirror is

Big N.Y. Bank Holdup
Clues Hint Inside Job
New York U.R) The po
lice and FBI checked clues to
day pointing to "an inside job"
in the biggest bank robbery in
U. S. history executed with the
same -cool wizardry of the no
torious Willie "The Actor" Sut
ton. Three folksy robbers and may
be more, escaped with $303,243
from the Woodside, Queens,
branch of the Chase Manhattan
Bank Wednesday. '
Armed with a submachinegun
the robbers kidnaped a clerk
near his home, called him by
his first name, and waited for
three more persons including
two women and forced their
way into the unguarded, alarm
less bank building.
After locking 11 persons in the
bank vault, the methodical ban
dits disappeared into a morning
subway crowd.
Well Planned Job
The display of quietly effic
ient skill was reminiscent of the
technique of Sutton, generaly ac
knowledged as one of the most
cunning of modern bank robbers.
Sutton, now serving 30 years
in Attica State Prison, N.Y. es
timated in his autobiography
written in prison that he had
stolen more than $2,000,000
from banks and other compan
ies during his 20-year "career."
The robbery Wednescay was
the sixth bank stickup in the
New York metropolitan area in
30 days.
The "master job" which one
robber confided to a victim was
the result of six months" cas
ing, began when Clerk Henry
Bardenhagen was getting into
his car at his home in Sunny
side, Queens.
Bandits New Names
Jabbing something in Barden
hagen's back, one of the rob
bers said pleasantly, "Okay Hen
ry, get in the back." Two other
robbers then got in the front
seat of the car.
At the bank, after a leisurely
drive, the gunman sighted M.
William Downing, of Valley
Stream, with Mrs. Eleanor Mino
gue, a real estate company em
people who needed more cash than they
could save up at one time. We are also financing our home through First
National, so we have two places in the 'Loans' figure."
"My goodness! We certainly get around in a bank statement!"
"No scoffing, please. We'je not the only ones who show up in a bank statement. Practically
everybody does. When First National says, 'Let's Build Oregon Together,' they're talking
a'bout you and me and our bank. And that's what we're doing. We're putting
cars on the road, building houses... we're building Oregon every day!"

ployee. A gunman ordered, "get
out or I'll blow your brains
out" and Downing and Mrs.
Minogue got out of the car.
A fourth employee, Mrs. Dor
othy Haas, a secretary, of Wood
side, came along. "Why, there's
Dorothy," said one of the rob
bers. With their prisoners the rob
bers then unlocked the bank
door with Bardenhagen's key.
Inside were six other employees.
And in plain view was the more
than $300,000 in bills ranging
in denomination from $1 to
$100.
The loot was dumped into a
2-by-3 -foot white canvas bag
bearing the imprint, "Federal
Reserve Bank." They fled in a
light blue convertible. The
whole job took less than eight
minutes.
