May 30 OPi Ed Koula is all wound up In his hobby. His hobby Is collecting string. Thai hobby la more complex than the average la (payer has any Idea. You may never have heard of Ed. But how many people heard of Jack Uemey before he signed to fight Jeas Wlllard? Thai Is exactly the position Fouls finds himself In to daythe dawn tierlnd between being comparatively unknown chal lenger and the world-hailed champ. Connoisseurs of string collecting already know that Ed Is within inking distance of becoming a his toric figure In this neglected art, one of the slow timeless characters who become silent milestones by which subsequent devotees measure their own Inching progress. To put It bluntly, Kd began col lecting string on December 13, 1141 a few day. after Pearl Har borand now has 178 miles of It. carefully lied together In a perfectly round ball standing four feet six Inches high after 3113 hours of me thodical knotting. There arc scores of people In the United States who collect string on a serious basin, and muny more who do It Intermittently as a lit! tit pas time, Ed knows iiersonally of 30 se rious collectors, writes to 15 of them lo compare progress. He is outstanding himself aside from the tremendous size of his ball of string for two reasons. In his own words: "I never paid a cent for the twine T have uvd. and I am tlie only one that uses the same weight twine all the way through." Ed Is a family man with two chil dren and he has helped two other children gel ahead In the world. He runs his own filling station on the edge of town, and he Is proud of tlie fact he had never been late or missed a day's work In 33 years. He Is a small, gray-haired energetic man of 66. "I started collecting string because I read a newxpaper article Just be fore the war that a hobby would help you forget your worries and live longer," he said. "Believe me. It does. I get more fun out of seeing the eyes bug out on strangers when they come Into my tilling station and see this ball of string." It Is something to come upon un expectedly. It weighs 338 pounds PAINT YOUR CAR 24-Hour Service by appointment. Finest qual ity paints expert work. Budget terms. BALSIGER MOTOR CO.

"One fellow has a 540-pound ball I think he's in Indiana but I really don't recollect .Just where he Is." Ed said. "By December twelfth this year I think I'll have a 00 pound ball, became I've lined up friends with a big wholesale bakery who are giving me plenty of string. I've got more coming along all the time.

Thai's an other thing some ones overlooked. But I want to win the all-time twine collecting record hands down." I think he's afraid that the man who has the 540-pound ball will read this story and speed up his collect ing. After all, that fellow doesn't stick to 16-gauge twine. Ed collects pieces of string about four feet long. I asked him how many knots he had tied. That both ered him. String collectors like to know every statistic about their hobby. "Nobody ever saw me tie a knot." he said. "I don't sleep much, and I do It every morning between four and five o'clock.
