Wu, who owns the Chinese Teagarden Cafe, said his place has been burglarized so many times I ve lost count. "I set the thing to fix the next burglar," he said. Policeman Jerry Phillips was making his rounds and noticed a window open. He investigated and reached across the window sill. There was a brilliant flash. He had brushed a string that triggered a rat trap, which in turn activated wires leading to an electrical socket sup posed to send current into a shotgun shell and and explode It on the window sill as a burglar crawled through. "I don't know why it didn't work," Wu said. Phillips is glad it didn't. OF SMITH & MEN Bv Jack Smith (el 1060 Tlmei-Mlrror SyndlcaU Some months ago in "a mo ment of frailty I lent my portable typewriter to my friend Magruder to take to the South Pole. He said he was doing something down there for the International Geophysical Year. I had misgiving at the time. Magruder has a malignant in fluence on machines. "What are you going to do with a typewriter down there at the Pole, anyway," I asked. I don t believe 1 m at lib erty to say, old boy," he said. He is always cloaking himself in great clouds of secrecy. "Don't worry about a thing," he assured me. "I'll bring it back like new." The next I heard from him was by post card from Auck land, New Zealand. "Wish you were here," he wrote. "Shoving off for An tarctica tomorrow. Typewriter o.k." ' ' Then he vanished from hu man sight and knowledge, like Ronald Colman in "Lost Hor izon." It was many weeks before I heard from him again, He telephoned. He sounded far away. "Where are you?" I shout ed. "Don't get excited," he said. "I'm home. I've got a bit of a cold. They don't heat their damn movies in New Zea land." "How about the portable? I asked "Is it all right?" "I meant to mention that," he said. "Funny IJiing. The keys are working too hard. It must have been affected some way by the cold. It was thirty below down there, you know." I hurried over to his house. He was sitting by the pool warming his feel in the winter sun. I tried the typewriter. 13 cup butter Vii cup flour 2 egg yolks Remove the leaves from the cauliflower and soak It In cold water, head down, for 30 min utes.

I took it home and let it sit a few days near the fur nance. I thought it might thaw out. Nothing happened. A friend of mine who works at a gas station said it probably was the lubrica tion. "She probably froze," he speculated, "and it changed the chemical structure of the oil." "What'll I do?" I asked him. "Have her steamed out," he counseled. Another man who was with the Marines at Changjin Res ervoir in Korea said the cold probably caused the graphite to crystallize. "Happened to our machine guns at the reservoir," he said. We had lo thaw cm out. "How'd you do it?" I asked He told me. "That's Ingenious," I said in admiration. "But isn't there a less spectacular way?" "Why don't you take her to a typewriter shop? he sug gestcd. It seemed like the sensible course. I took it over there yester- day. It's a five-block walk. I told the typewriter man everything. "We think," I said, "that It must have undergone some In trinsic change down there In the subzero weather. You ever hear of that?" "Could be," he said. He tap ped a few keys. "Works hard, all right." He lifted the cover from the ribbon shelf. There was a little lever by the right-hand spool. He put a thumb against the lever and moved it for ward. He tapped a few keys. "Try It now," he said. It worked fine. "Your tension lever was on high," he said. Magruder phoned last night, "what was the trouble?" he asked. "The graphite was crystal lized," I told him. "Just as I thought," he said. "What'd they do?" "Steamed her out," I said. MEN'S CLUB RE FORMED Nocona, Tex. ft'PD The men's club of the First Metho dist Church recently reorgan ized and elected new officers.

WERNER For its second presentation of the 1960-61 season, Jackson County Civic Music associ ation brought to the Hedrick Junior High school auditorium the Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo last evening. Employing a corps de ballet of approximately 36 dancers. and an orchestra of 20 players, besides the conductor and many technicians, the com pany provided an evening of beauty, artistry and scintil lating entertainment. "V a r i a t ions Classiques' opened the program. This was "an effort to interpret choreO' graphically 'Brahm's Varia tions on a Theme by Handel,1 with an attempt to retain the style, the spirit and the no bility and lyrical implications of the composition. The music was arranged and orchestrated by the con ductor, Ivan Boutnikoff. This was done admirably. Only a musician of superb training and intimate knowledge of in struments could have pro duced such a fine score. It can stand on its own as a con cert piece. The choreography is abstract, but pictures the mood and content of the music to a very high degree. Short Intermission After a short intermission, grand pas de deux from "Don Quixote," with music by Minkus, was performed by two solo dancers, one of them Igor Yousekevitch. The prima ballerina, Nina Novak, was programmed for this but an announcement from the stage led us to believe another dancer was substituted. All very well done, nevertheless. In the aforementioned an nouncement, the audience was informed that there Had been several accidental injuries to the dancers that afternoon during practice and they were in a state of high tension; the names of alternate dancers were given. Unfortunately, Eugene Collins, one of the male dancers, pulled a leg TOO MUCH FRICTION Dallas, Tex. -(UPI)- The City Council was discussing some of tha causes of a recent out break of .home fires at its meeting Tuesday and George Mixon commented: "The in surance policy rubbing against the mortgage causes a lot of them.

Several responded. - "Sombreros," with music of Mexican folk origin ar ranged and orchestrated by the conductor, was very inter esting. A great variety of rhythms and tempi made this anything but easy to play. The orchestra came out way ahead. They were excellent. And the dancers were a delight. To us, this was the best balanced and most concise and human effort of the evening. Cos tumes were very appealing. Wholo Company "La Beau Danube" closed the program, employing the whole company. There was a semblance of a story to this dance, but the thread became very thin at times. However, there was much dancing of various kinds, solo, duet, etc., with a bit of comedy which carried It off as a very good closing number. To many people, ballet may mean just dancing. But it is much more. The art of ballet is a perfect blending of many forms. The composer, painter, choreographer, writer - all lend their talents and com bined with the actual dancer the result is ballet. And like all the arts, it requires con stant practice and work -daily. There can never be any let down. These people know nothing about vacations and getting away from it. It is their life and the constant search for perfection is their greatest satisfaction.
