CHAPTER 1 HELEN BLANDIN stirred, sat up, blinked her eyes and straightened the pencil in her limp fingers. Nibbling at its end, she squinted across the room at the clock. John was very late. Ten minutes after eleven was no time to go whimsical Not on a Monday night, with spring housecleaning ahead of her, the month’s meals to plan—and to* day's tasks still aching reminiscently in her muscles. Her head tilted alertly. A fan of light swept across the window draperies; she got up swiftly and snapped on the garage lights, then walked to the side door. John's smile was both glad to see her, and reproving that she should be waiting. “I'll take to staying out all night," he threatened as he kissed her. ‘‘l wanted to hear about the meeting." “That's good, because sure as anything I’m going to talk about it" She turned to look at him. As he'hung his trench coat in the hall closet, the bright overhead light shone down upon his crest of brown hair and threw' a grotesque shadow of his pipe-in-mouth profile against one wait There was, definitely, an air of repressed excitement about Dr. John Blandin. “I'll get some milk," she said, passing him. » . “We should go to bed." She was already in the kitchen, setting things upon a tray. When she returned to the living room, John was slanted into his arihchalr, and he lifted an eyebrow ruefully. “You spoil me—even to fresh brownies." When he had finished a third of the milk and two brownies, Helen slapped her hands fiat upon the rubbed Wood of the table in front of her. “Now," she bald, "you may tell me!" He grinned at her. "You know I'm excited?" “John ...” . “It is exciting," he broke tn. "You see—we're goihg to have our screening clinic." She waited, her Ups tense. He leaned toward her. “Hon* estly, Helen! Now. Right away. Complete. No patches, no makeshifts." "Not at the school t"

in the custom of tipping, isn't it one's privilege to omit it? ? A. Although there is nothing compulsory about tipping, still a person who tries to omit it must be hard-shelled enough to shake off the black looks he will receive from those who have served him, and the possible accusations of “stinginess.” Q. When a young man accompanies two girts to the theater, is it all right for him to sitbetween them? A. Yes, unless there is an aisle seat. Then he should, of course, sit next to the aisle. Q. Does a man seat his woman dinner partner on his right or his left? A.

“Oh, yea. But the whole build- < ing put into professional service, 1 with proper equipment—and 1 everything!" 1 Helen rubbed her short and i freckled nose. “The makeshift < operation was rather fun," she | mused. “Our Sunday get-togeth- i ers to rake the drive, cut the i grass, make curtains.

We need it right out here in the County—we’re growing so fast out here in the suburbs, what with our shopping centers and our housing developments. Well, I don't need to argue the thing to you. You’ve been sold on the Idea for as long as I have—and that's over three years." He got to his feet and paced around the room, a slight man with a tense face, and clever hands. His Voice trembled with emotion. "It must be as wonderful to you as to me, Helen, to have twenty years suddenly telescoped into a few months." He came to the table and- leaned toward her. ,r We’d have made it in time," he assured her. “But now—" “Will it take in the whole County?" she asked. That would be a radical change In plan.

Predicts Future Os Television In 2056 Metal Box Sealed In New TV Studio By JOHN LESTER Newhouse Newspapers Columnist NEW YORK (UP) - Recently, one of the major TV networks completed construction of a huge, . new studio. In one of its walls was sealed a metal box to be opened 100 years from now - in —the summer of 2056. , Among other things, the box contains predictions and observations about television by those of us who currently reported on this marvel. I don’t know how the others projected their feelings and opinions but, for my part, I had considerable trouble waxing enthusiastic over TV that far ahead, whereas my enthusiasm for it at the i moment seems boundless, as does my confidence in it for the next decade or so. Some time after that, at least by 2056,' television will have reached the full flowering of its development. It’ll be powerful, pompous, stuffy and taken-for-granted. Flick a switch, press a button or make a wish and there it’ll be: ( one of the most fantastic devices 1 of all time, performing flawlessly ’ but with no more dash and glamor than a wet sock. ’ The average home will have a receiver in every room and there’ll be hundreds of channels ■ trom which to choose. Viewers ' will be able to tune to Washington or any other far-away place any . hour of the day or night to keep . a running check on current events. Theater TV, pay - as - you - see, ! worldwide TV and closed circuit . systems will have arrived. The
blind will be able to “eee” by television in 2056: its colors will be used to effect miraculous therapeutic cures. Sweeping economic and sociological changes will have been accomplished by it. Somehow, though, and I intend no disrespect. I’m not particularly Impressed, nor does all this seem as important, as interesting and exciting as TV today for the same reason that most adults aren't as important, as interesting and exciting as most children. The elements of novelty and uncertainty that presently attract ingenuity and excitement to It like a magnet attracts metal will be long gone, carefully and laboriously siphoned off in countless laboratories* The pioneering air that itill Clings to It, and to ' thOSe around it, as it formerly clung to the automobile, the airplane, movies, radio and so many other American things, will have disappeared entirely.

SYNOPSIS A group of doctors in the Midwestern suburb of Burbank try to establish a free screening clinic despite lack of money and opposition from the County Hospital. Dr. John Blandin. a strong booster of the project, returns from a meeting and tells his wife. Helen, that enough money has been donated to set up the clinic. CHAPTER 2 ° JOHN BLANDIN did "go oh," catching up the threads of the County doctors’ reasons for wanting the clinic in the first place. Each of the four suburbs in question was as large as many a city, he said, with homes and families in greater proportion than most municipal settlements enjoyed. Stores had been opened to serve these suburban families; doctors had come to live there, too, and had opened their offices, though most of them also affiliated with hospitals m the city. But the doctors needed away to reach the County people in the same fashion that the various hospital and clinic services were available — handy— to the people in the city. Three years ago, with this sort of service in mind, the doctors had formed an organization; their Initial step had been to establish a night emergency call service. At first they rented a small store for a desk and their records, and the necessary bookkeeping. Slight emergencies had come in there, or were brought, in the mistaken Idea that a doctor would be present. The next step was to have one on hand. That predicated some equipment, and the makeshift quarters were unsatisfactory for the purpose. About that time the Country Day School gave up its property at the edge of Burbank. The doctors were asked if they would be Interested in the "plant” as a permanent location. A favorable, long-term mortgage was offered them, and was accepted, hesitantly. In the heart of the new shopping center, the location was ideal. The doctors* plan was to establish an examining clinic, a screening clinic, for well people. If they could make a housewife take an hour <rom her shopping to go in for a check-up; if she would then send her husband in, and bring her children . . . There were various organizations ready to help them, the

State Medical Association, the Public Health Service, the Heart and Cancer and Tuberculosis organizations. And with their help the clinic was started. Some day the doctors hoped to nave all the equipment and personnel that they needed. •'But now,” John announced abruptly, “we can ao all we want to do, and it can be free.” — Helen jumped. She’d grown a little drowsy our mg the lecapitulation ot the dime's history, which was as familiar to tier as the chronological record of her marriage to John Blandin. “What changed things tonight ? What’s the dime going to use for money?” John stood up. "The same thing the Milburns use, my sweet.” Helen leaned back in her chair to study his face. “Oh,” she moaned, "not Alice!” "We want bur clinic,” he said i tightly. “And Alice —Mrs. Mili burn —is ready to give us the i necessary cash to set us up properly. Immediately.” “Not just ike that?” cried Helen. "Not just tonight—out of the h|ue?" He sat down beside her, and I put his hand affectionately upon her forearm. "I’ll make it brief,” he promised. “My idea was that I the elide might get the support ; ot the Women’s Club. I had hoped the whole Club would '■ .underwrite the clinic as a financial project.” , Helen kept her face smooth i and her tongue still. Until tonight, John had not mentioned ’ this idea to her; she could have ■ told him—•‘But,” he was saying, a little . frown between his brows, "some ! politics—female, and thus Incom- , prehensible to me—it had to do I somewhat with so many terms on . the Club’s Board ot Directors—anyway, it was politics, and in the coursp of it—or would it be i them I— the Club turned the thing i down. But fortunately for us—” , He hesitated. “Fortunately for us," he repeated “Alice took their refusal as a direct slap at her, . since she was the one who was . pushing support of the clinic. Just ! to show those women—that was I her term!—she has offered to finance the whole thing alone. As • she can, of course.” > “How much?” asked Helen.

“Enough to buy the building and equip it.

She'll dictate policy, if she doesn’t do more, Youknow that!” John smiled ruefully, and rubbed his hand up the back of his neck and head. "1 know all that," he admitted. “I’ve given the matter some thought.” J “But the money talked, of course.” “Seventy-five thousand? Maybe a hundred? Sure, it yelled. Alics is honest, and intelligent. She agreed readily when I suggested that her attorney should represent her on the Board. And if we do a good job of running the clinic, sticking to our purpose, she'll let us alone.” “I know Alice Milburn.

A representative from each of the sponsoring organizations. Mrs. Milbum, or her attorney. And one other—we called him a ’citizen.’ ” . “Choose him?” “Tentatively. We must ask him to serve—it's Joseph Radman at the bank.” i Helen began to gather her papers together.
