VOCkiE.V Feeling for the hard- working comic as rigor mortis sets in on all sides OF HIM OF SMITH & MEN By Jack Smith ' (c) 1960 Times-Mirror Syndicate Homesickness is a common affliction, of the. gentry who abdicate their landed homes in the suburbs and crawl back to the mother city. Up there in their antiseptic eoncrete cells they sometimes hunger for the sounds and aromas of the suburban block. They miss the lawns, flat and green as pool tables; the smell of the newly-fertilized earth; the excitement of the gopher hunt; the shrieks of ehildren belaboring each other with deadly voodoo in the street; the barking of lecherous and demented dogs. m All these are lovely things indeed, and grow lovelier as they become wrapped in the pink gauze of memory." , ,However, being a city bred youth who migrated to the suburbs, I know that home sickness strikes both species -urban and suburban. I'm especially vulnerable on rainy days. It's quite easy on rainy days to imagine I'm back in the sanctuary of kitchen, bedroom and bath, 10' stories above the contam inated earth. - .''J fell into such a fantasy the other day. ' Rain was drum ming the windows. The ordin aTy surface sounds of the sub urbs were still. The children were whining softly in their own homes.' The dogs' had slunk back in their hutches to gnaw on their wretched ness and curse mankind. -.I pulled the curtains to shut out the dripping land scape. I made a pot of coffee, turned the radio on low, to establish minimum contact With the outside world, and began reading the Sunday pa per. flJ ignored the home-making ads, entreating me to- renew my roof, cover my patio, mod ernize my plumbing, alumin- ize my exterior, get my water jiotter, dispose of my garbage faster and paint my interior "'I amused myself with the pook reviews, the news of art and the theater, the world of finance and men's suits and furnishings, as any cultured metropolitan might while hav ing a cup of coffee 10 stories up in slippers and a red wool robe on a rainy morning. I was delighted to note that the stock market had made a fair advance in' the past week, but felt some misgiving at the prediction by a gentleman from E. bearish F. Hutton & Co. of a outlook for 1961. For a moment I fancied I could hear the traffic down in the streets, like a wood wind section tuning up; the giddy morning prattle of the newlyweds in the next apart ment; the click of the eleva tor door in the hall. . The heavy rain, I mused, not without satisfaction, must be playing havoc in the sub urbs. It always means wet cats, surly children, dead spark plugs,, flooded barbe cues and muddy rugs. I fqlt as dry and cozy as a monk up there in the clouds with my books, my newspa per and my hi-fi. I hardly no ticed when my wife got up and started pottering in the kitchen. 1 But she didn't break the spell. An apartment isn't after all, a monastery. Women are good to tidy up the place and to send out for delicatessen. 'You ever think about mov ing back to an apartment," I asked. ; ' 'No" she said, growing suspicious, why? I thought it might be easier on you," I explained, !'No muddy garden to mess in No driving 'over tile freeway every day. i."" ' ' "I like' working in the gar den." she said. ' I pulled back the edge of the curtain and looked out at my drooping half acre. It seemed treacherous and prim itive. Her flowers were bruis ed and-bent by the rain. The rjhone rang. It was Pomeroy, down the street. "Smith?" he said. He sound ed annoyed. "Your dog's over here on my porch. He's all over mud. He don't know where his home is, I guess, He's not very smart, is he?" "I'll be right over, Pom eroy." I said. I put . on my shoes and my raincoat over my pajamas and went down to Pomeroy 's and sot the dumb beast. In my hurry I forgot to take the elevator. New Clues Hinted In Hunt For Girl Portland -ffiPD- Plans for a massive search of the wooded Forest Park area where a col lege student was found slain and his pretty girl friendQvan- lsnea went on today, amia in dications authorities were working on a possible new clue. Detectives investigating the stabbing death of Larry Ralph Peyton, 19, and the apparent kidnaping and feared slaying of Beverly Ann Allan, also 19, declined to discuss the possible lead. Sheriff Francis Lambert said some 250 men are expect ed to take part in the hunt Saturday in the Forest Park area where Peyton's body was found in his car last Sun day night. Authorities believe one or more men set upon the pair and that young Pey ton died trying to protect the Washington State University sophomore. Included among the search ers will be 25 men from Pey ton s City of Roses Sea Scout ship and men from Crown- Zellerbach Corp., for which Beverly's father, Robert Al lan, is employed at Port Townsend, Wash. CAMPUS FORTRESS Caracas. Venezuela - IUPD Communist-led students have transformed the Caracas uni versity campus into a virtual fortress, defying troops to dis lodge them on the sixth day of subversive rioting in which at least 14 persons had died. DIGNITY Dorothy McCullough Lee Plans Return to Oregon As College Instructor By YYONNE FRANKLIN Mail Tribune Washington Bureau Washington (Special) - Dor othy McCullough Lee, the lady barrister who once served as Portland's mayor, has been attending night school here to prepare her self for a new career. During the day, Mrs. Lee attends to her strenuous du ties as chairman of the Sub versive Activities Control Board. When her term ex pires next fall, she is looking forward to a college teach ing career. "I plan to go back to Ore gon, but I cannot say just yet when it will be," she said. "I want to teach government on the college level and practice law too, but I want to spend a good share of my time teaching." Second Year of Study This is the second year Mrs. Lee has studied at the School of Government at American University in Washington. She expects to receive her Mas ter's degree next June. She has already won a Doctor of Jurisprudence degree. "I love Oregon and her young people so much that I would rather teach in Oregon, but I will have to wait for the opening," she said, indi cating that American univer sity has offered her a teach ing post here and that she may stay a year in Washing ton before returning to Port land. She said that the return to academic life was thrilling. At first she was afraid it would be difficult to carry hours of study as well as a full-time job. But that "there have been a few 'A' grades to make it worthwhile." Mrs. Lee is also eager to get back into the practice of law. "I always loved to prac tice and was very active for Wall Street Chatter New York - (UPD - Thomson & McKirtnon reports that while business as a whole is struggling with its "most severe post - war recession," there is nothing in sight which would seriously disturb the exciting potential in leisure time, vending, defense spend ing, space-age- research, pub lic construction for education. transportation and massive efforts for breakthroughs in medicine. This leads ,t h e brokerage house to the conviction that dismal statistics on unemploy ment and slowdowns in key industries are and can only be temporary. Once tax - selling pressure begins to slacken and the op timistic Christmas selling sea son gets well under way, it says, a surge of market con fidence should ensure. a great many years. This job is purely judicial, just like being on the bench." ' She has been specializing in American government, both national and local, and in Constitutional interpretation and comparative government of Western Europe. A Republican, Mrs. Lee has held two high posts in the years of the Eisenhower ad ministration. She was first appointed to the Federal Pa role board. This duty requir ed her to travel to various federal prisons to evaluate the cases of prisoners eligible for parole. Subsequently, President Ei senhower appointed her to the Subversive Activities Con trol Board, an agency created by an act of Congress for the purpose of determining which organizations in this country were engaged in subversive activities. New Term Unlikely With the forth coming change of administration from Republican to Democrat, the likelihood of her being reap pointed to a new term by President Kennedy next fall would not be strong enough to be taken for granted. Several years ago, Mrs. Lee was sounded out as to the pos sibility of running for Con gress against Democratic Rep. Edith Green of Portland. She declined even to entertain the idea. At the Subversive board, she was promoted to the chairmanship, thereby becom ing the only woman to hold such a responsible post in Washington. Before her election as Port land's mayor, Mrs. Lee served in the Oregon state legisla ture. Her venture into teach ing will mark the start of a fourth career, from lawyer to political leader to government official to professor.
