I have come to know her better than when we were Hol lywood actresses because now we are living under the same hotel roof. - When I told Norma I wished to write an article about her en titled "How An Actress Retires Gracefully.'' she said: "Gloria, don't you find the word retire an ugly word? 'Tire', in any form, should only apply to those who are really tired of living." Her remark conjured up all sort of mental pictures like the old ladies' home or the child with the candle going off to bed. So I turned to the dictionary for a better word but couldn't find one. A few days later I called her to inquire if she had thought of a substitute for "retire." "Frankly, Gloria, I haven't given it a thought," she said. BETTER THAN WORDS Memphis .(U.Ri John Camp bell, suing an insurance com pany for S20.000 on a personal injury claim, was a bit surprised when the . defense produced a filmed record showing him push ing a stalled car several weeks after his accident. The court was a little surprised too and cut the damage award to S3, 400. "I've been too happily busy." Snooping Reporter "Busy?" I said, like a snooping reporter. "Doing what?" "Oh, Marty and I had a beau tiful afternoon yesterday in the Bois, reading poetry and nap ping.

Red Cross Offers To Reinstate Worker Seattle (U.F A veteran who had to resign a Red Cross position because the Army de nied him security clearance for an overseas assignment said to day he had been offered his old job back.

August said he had been called Wednesday by the Red Cross from San Francisco with the offer. "They hit me cold just after I had gotten out of bed so I told them I would think it over," he said. "They said they would call me again this morning. When they do, I'll tell them I'll be delighted to go back to work." August, a World War II and Korean veteran, said he wanted a hearing on his case offered under the industrial security reg ulations administered by the De fense Department.

Caudle, Connelly Declared Guilty St. Louis OI.RJ Two high Truman administration officials were convicted today of charges of conspiracy to defraud the government in the handling of a tax case.
