Inside Indianapolis

The Rev, Florizel A. Pfleiderer gets more fun out of his religious job than many men do from golf and baseball. He Tecently accepted * the position of administrator of the week-day schools of religion for pupils on release time from the public schools. Beginning as pastes of the Sutherland Presbyterian church, the Mr, Pfleiderer established execufive offices in vy, M. C. A, buildipg. «Strangers meeting the cheerful, slightly rotund Mr. Pfleiderer for the first time are always curious about the name, “Florizel.” The “A” is*mere filler, he says, but Florizel, he likes immensely, always writes it out instead of using the initial. He knows of only two other persons with that name. One was the Dutch cousin of his mother for whom he was named, a virtuoso who happened to be

playing his fiddle in recitals in the United States

when the Hoosier Pfleiderer’s son was born. The other was the Bohemian Prince Florizel immortalized in Shapespeare’s “Winter s Tale.”

Excelled in Oratory THE INDIANAPOLIS FLORIZEL began to preach at 17. He excelled in oratory as a member. of the historic debating team of Ashland college. When young Pfleiderer was helping the team to win debates

he was very slim and fragile looking, a brilliant ‘but easy going student, and a collaborator in all the pranks and -“‘monkey-husiness” that happened on the campus, local college mates report.

His flair for public speaking and for promoting the other fellow came in handy in 1944 when he sponsored Dr. Roy Ewing Vale for the office of moderator of the general assembly of the Presbyterian church. Dr. Vale ‘is pastor of the Tabernacle Presbyterian church of Indianapolis.

Mr. Pfleiderer went to Chicago and spread the

that Dr. Vale. was the only logical candidate for the highest office of the church. He was elected.

It is worth 11 months of hard work to get one moth, usually August, at the Pfleiderer cottage on Lake Michigan, the owner feels. Every summer, he loads into the car 20 or 30 books he has collected and sets forth with his family and luggage. For four solid weeks he swims a bit, does a little fishing and reads and reads and reads.

Cooking a Hobby

“I DON'T MIND dishwashing,” was the minis-ter-executive’s manner of brushing aside the matter. “But cooking is a hobby.” In fact, he's the author of an original dish which he calls “Chef's Delight.” It is a savory concoction of ground beef, onions, ‘bread crumbs, tomato sauce, etc. Try to get the recipe and see what luck you have. Your reward will be one of his warmest smiles, a few gracious words, but no recipe. It's strictly private with all rights reserved. The radio is a favorite Pfleiderer pastime. He

HOLLYWOOD, March 16.—Per square-foot, there {5 more nonsense written about Hollywood than any area of this planet. And I have perpetrated a fair ghare of it. Consider me, therefore, as robed in sackcloth and ashes, the while I beat by breast in honest contrition. It is estimated that there are about 30,000 peole in the movie colony, though the rapid turnover in "personnel makes any accurate census impossible. (I met a chap yesterday who used to be a newspaperman himself and who has been in “the industry” only a little over a year. Yet in length of service he is the second in his department.) In this small group—which includes everybody from office boy to star—is a considerable population of screwball, crackpot and leech. But, as a single drop of ink can discolor a lot of water, this lunatic fringe has been publicized far beyond its importance. -. The fact is that in Hollywood all the seven arts come to a focus. Within its few square miles of ‘suburban Los Angeles live and labor an extraordinary number of extraordinaryily talented people. Under the crust of zany exhibitionism is a silent core of folk who lead as.sane and decent lives as anybody in Decatur, Ill, or Dayton, O.

Servant Problem

THEY FACE the same problems too. The servant question is just as acute in Hollywood as it is anywhere, Take the case of Joan Crawford—whose eomeback as winner of an academy award seems to have delighted everybody hereabouts. The studio had arranged for her to pose for

Science

WARTIME: developments of rockets, jet-propelled planes and atomic energy, coupled with the moon, have given rise to an optimistic view concerning the possibility of interplanetary rocket ships. While the sending of a radar-controlled rocket to the moon may become a reality in the very near future, there is one hazard that may slow up passenger travel in space ships for a long time to come. It is the danger of so-called shooting stars, known technically as meteors. If you take your position outdoors on’ a clear, moonless night and watch the sky in any direction, you will see a shooting star on the average of every 10_ minutes, They are, of course, not stars at all, but bits of cosmic rubbish that were heated to incandescence by friction against the earth's atmosphere. Several million of them enter the earth's atmosphere every 24 hours. It is obvious that space within the solar system must contain trillions upon trillions of them.

Phey Are Not Harmless

MOST OF them are extremely small, no larger than a grain of sand. But it would be a mistake to think .that they are harmless as a result. The hazard arises from the speed with which they are moving in space. Dr. Fred L. Whipple of the Harvard college obgervatory points out that these meteors move with speeds of varying magnitude ranging up to 45 miles per second. (The earth, it will be recalled, moves in its orbit with a speed of 18'4 miles per second.)

My. Day

NEW YORK (Priday)—Unless wé build a strong United Nations organization, it is fairly obvious that

the U. 8. 8. R, the United States and Great Britain,

the three great allies in the European war, are each

going to become the center of a group of nations, each building up its individual power, "Unless the UNO controls the atomic bomb and other weapons of destruction, and it is arranged for all nations to share in scientific discoveries, whether along destructive or constructive lines, there is going to be conspiracy, spying and constant rivalry among these three nations and their satellites, No one of them will be entirely at peace, no matter how much they know, because they will never be sure that one of the others has not discovered something whith will put that nation ahead either in the military or the economic field.

Armament Race Looms

.THE ARMAMENT race and rivalry in scientific research and in the econaric field will mean" that the cost of government in the various countries will mount steadily. Instead of having money for constructive purposes such as education, better health, better housing, and more social security for the aver age man and woman, they will have to pay the cost of the new fears that stalk the world.

Shortly before the time appointed, she phoned [7

that she would be unable to attend—reason: She couldn't find a “sitter.” So the scene was transferred to her home; and set up there. She posed for the pictures—and then went back to her ironing! Like me, you may have thought that movie stars lead lives of indolent ease. The fact is that few people work harder for their dough. Their workday begins at 8 and ends at 6—except for a possible conference which may last well into the night. “On location,” they start earlier, depending on how far they have to go. A start at 5 a. m. is not unusual. And they work all day Saturday.

Chores Are Different

MAYBE you think it isn't “work” to just stand around in front of a camera, being photographed. Well, it is exhausting just to watch it. The director’s artistic sense has to be satisfied; and when that is accomplished there is almost sure to be some mechanical difficulty. A light went out or somebody rattled a paper or a prop was missing. The scene has to be shot for the nth time. In between the moments of action there are the waits. Sometimes a company may sit around a whole day, just waiting for the gremlins that infest all movie lots to be swept out or put under control. The marvel isn't that there are so few really good movies, but there are any at ali!

By David Dietz

A meteor moving faster than 45 miles a second would-escape completely from the gravitational control of the sun and careen off into interstellar space. _ He adds that a meteor weighing only a thousandth of a gram (one 30,000th of an ounce) at such speeds would strike with the force of a bullet fired from a 45-caliber pistol at point blank range. In other words, every meteor as large as a speck of dust would become as dangerous as a pistol shot.

Known as Meteorite

IT WOULD, of course, be possible to build a space ship with armor-plate walls sufficiently strong to withstand this constant bombardment of tiny meteors, though it is a question whether or not the incessant drumfire might not heat the rockets walls to white heat.. Howéver, it is n users to remember that many meteors far exceed § minimum size. Not infrequently a meteor which is sufficiently large not to be consumed by the heat of friction enters eur atmosphere and a piece survives and falls to earth, It is known then as a meteorite. This means that within the solar system there ‘must be billionis of larger meteors, ranging from the size of small stones to extremely large boulders. The largest known meteorite was found by Adm. Peary at Melville bay, Greenland, and weighed 36% tons. An encounter with one of “these larger meteors might prove fatal for any rocket ship in interplanetary space. It requires little imagination to see that such a meteor would go through a rocket like a shell from the 16-inch gun of a battleship.

Unwilling to Trust Each Other

THAT IS the kind of existence which stares us in the face unless we learn to work together gnd live together—unless the world organization, which we all set up and which receives from us all a joint pool of knowledge and power, is successfully maintained and gives us all a sense of security. I believe that all of us, Great Britain, Russia and the United: States, want peace but the old way of counting on our own individual force seems still to have a strong hold on us. together enough really to feel that we understand each other. -We still question whether our different political and economic systems can exist side by side in the world. We still suspect each other when we belong to different racial and religious groups. We are still loath to. give up the old power and attempt to build a new kind of power and security in the world.
