A MUSIC-LOVER who likes a vacation from music Is Alice McMahon, directing manager of the Indiana Roof ballroom.

“Much as I like music, I like to get away from it,

a, Maybe sbmewhere up in northern Wisconsin, for a

week or so each summer,” she says. That's because music is, you might say, the “sound track”. of Miss McMahon's job. Even in her quiet office up there on the Roof, she has a radio connected with the public-address system in the ballroom so that she can always hear what's going on. “I guess it all started with my being Irish,” she “They say the Irish have an innate capacity for music.” There was plenty of music in the McMahon home, even before Alice started taking lessons on the piano.

_ Her father, Henry J. McMahon, who, she says, at the

age of 74 can still outrun her, dashing to catch a bus, played the concertina. “I was. still playing one-finger style, picking out tunes. Father would offer me a quarter for every new Irish tune I'd learn. I guess the bribes sort of stirred up my interest. “Then when I started taking: lessons, I used to get impatient. I esuldn't wait to leatn the notes—always wanted to get Whe melody right away.”

Attended St. John's

MUSIC STUDY went on for some years while Miss McMahon was attending St. John's: academy on W. Maryland st. She acquired a collection “of scores which were almost totaly destroyed when the 1927 tornado took the roof and the back wall off the McMahon home on Temple ave. Miss McMahon's secretarial and publicity job at the Indiana Roof, starting in 1928, was not her first. She had worked elsewhere, “Every place I worked at either went bankrupt or went out of town,” she declares, with a characteristic ready smile. One firm left her with nothing but memories and a “rubber” pay-check, Another one, trying to market a gadget supposed to cure rheumatism and arthritis, got in trouble with the Better Business bureau. In an insurance office, where she stayed only about two days, the manager insisted on conducting midmorning and mid-afternoon calisthenics, dows wide open. Earlier, she had wanted to become either a pipegreanist or an author. Writing publicity for the Roof and listening to a lot of music made the ballroom Job seem the best so far. Since she took over the ballroom mn 1940, she’s worked hard making the place conform with her ideas of what a dance spot should ‘be. One of her aims has been to provide the luxury and atmosphere of a private club for dancing enthusiasts who can't afford club membership.

Job Is Not Easy One

“PEOPLE THINK this job is easy,’ she says. “I've had any number say to me, ‘You've got a soft life,

Hitch-Hike Bugs

WASHINGTON, Sept. 14 (U. P.).—The average bug has four legs, a love of airplanes and no sense of responsibility. He travels with his own built-in gas mask via four-motored transport and thumbs his nose (with all 14 thumbs) at the puny efforts of man to knock him down. What this hitch- hiking bug is doing to Hawaii at the moment is no joke; what he may be_ doing somewhere else tomorrow is the $64,000,000,000 question. Talk about your international crises. If these bugs get ahead of us, the peacemakers in Paris might as well quit and give the world back to the bugs. (Come to think of it, the bugs had it first.) Wé humans are fighting back. The scientists of the army, navy, surgeon general and agriculture department even now are working on a goo that will be to bugs what atoms were to Hiroshima. Maybe, they hope. I got my first inkling of the bug crisis from my man at the air transport command who said the -oblem was two-fold:

They Enjoy DDT for Dessert HOW TO KNOCK down the 14-legged hitch-hikers aboard an airplane without also knocking down the two-legged ticket holders, and (not quite so difficult) how to blend a spray that'll melt the bugs without also melting the plastic trimmings inside the plane. ~ So I got in touch next with the chairman, S. A, Rohwer, agriculture department entomologist. That word, of course, means bug expert. He said the health officials had the international mosquito and- fly traffic under control. They aren't worrying about bugs that stab people, but about bugs

Aviation

FROM ACCIDENT reports it is evident -that demobilized combat pilots still are fighting their lowpowered civilian airplanes. A man’s thinking must conform to his occupation.

There's no question that long life’ in the air is dependent on proper mental habits. For instance, a pilot's mental attitude toward the piloting of a new machine with which characteristics he is unfamiliar determines the degree of safety and success with which he flies that ship. An experienced horseman can usually anticipate what kind of a ride a new horse will give him long before he puts a foot in the stirrups. Likewise, a shrewd airman can condition himself mentally to fly a new ship safely as the result of a close check on thé horsepower and general design of new ship, a sharp check on his own experience in ying such a type. The military airman is a good pilot. He is accustomed to much excess power upon which he can call in an emergency. His excess power has taught him that his rate of climb can be anywhere between a few hundred to thousands of feet a minute. If he intends to step from that all-motor plane into a little civilian putt-putt powered by anywhere from 80 to 100 horsepower, he is due for a little quiet chat with himself—or else.

Reaction Is More Sluggish

HE MUST think in terms of low-horsepower flying. He will be ‘‘cruising” at a speed little, if any, higher than the stalling and landing speed of his combat plane. That means a new and uncomfortable “seat” sensation. The putt-putt will react to the controls far more sluggishly than the fighter. Each plane

My Day

HYDE PARK, Friday. —It certainly must have been a very great relief to many people to read in the papers this morning that our ships were likely to be able to move again—that the striking A. F. of L. Sea-faring-unions were apparently set to accept Stabilization Director John .R. Steelmar’s proposals, There remains the threat of a new tie-up on Sept. 30, involving two C. I. O. unions, but it is to be hoped that—with the serious results of the present tie-up in mind—everyone concerned will make a great effort to reach a fair settlement before .that date; s In reading of the plan for ending the strike, I could not help wondering why this could not have been reached much sooner, It seems to me that where the government is engaged in an industry, it should take immediate interest In any negotiations going on between labor and private management in that Industry.

It was also encouraging to read that the workers the trudkmen’s local unions on strike in New York City were showing signs of a willingness to negotiate.

A recent whispering campaign to the effect that the Roof had been condemned by fire inspectors recalls to Miss McMahon the rumor circulated in 1927, that the Indiana theater was in imminent danger of collapsing.

That's a sample headache. Another typical headache: The leader of a band once called Miss McMahon at her home at 5 a. m. to report a serious wreck in his mortocade. Due to open that night at the Roof, the band had to be rep laced—an all-day job, full of

In what time ‘she gets for recreation, Miss MeMahon likes to play golf (score, when in practice, around 100; now, about 120), to bowl (in practice, about 156; out. of practice, 135) and to ride. She plays the piano a good bit for relaxation, and enjoys reading and bridge.

Maybe it's the fact that she’s happy in her work (“It’s like a tonic to me”) that makes her seem calm and confident. Over the phone, she can turn down a persistent, nagging salesman with no show of {irritation. She doesn’t like to discuss recipes for success in business (they're apt to sound pompous and copceited). But she will tell you, “I have to believe in the thing I'm doing.” (By Henry Butler.)

that ruin crops. The latter are tougher; DDT they enjoy for dessert. A while back a Jap beetle and his mate boarded an airplane in Washington (or some nearby spot) flew 300 miles an hour to California, got off and started eating everything in sight. Their children also were chomping the crops by the time the experts found em. Some Texas grasshopper hopped a plane at their home town, disembarked-in Honolulu and chewed up

the beautiful turf surrounding Hickman field. ‘I'm Serious About Phis’ A FEW Saipan grubs, meantime, crawled onto a ship in the far Pécific, and by. the time they reached Hawaii, they flew out as moths. These laid eggs,” which’ turned into more grubs, which started to eat all the leaves off the trees in the islands. The bug fighters trapped 'em in the nick. So it is that every plane reaching Hawaii now is sprayed while it still is in the air, but weakly, so it won't give the humans the staggers. As soon as they get off, the ship is sealed and the bugs get a really heavy jolt. The more planes going the more places, the more bugs. And the more worried the entomologists. “In an hour or two by plane insects might do untold damage,” Mr. Rohwer said. He said he wished I would treat the subject seriously. I am. So are the scientists. They are standing at attention by their spray guns. The battle of man against bugs is just beginning. Brush that beetle off your collar next time you board a plane. Who knows? You may save the world for humans. A foreign minister could do no more.

was designed for a different purpose. All this thinking, like most of the aviation's safety thinking, can be done only on the ground. It's too late to start thinking after the take-off. This is fundamental—yet airmen old and young carelessly ignore tt, and, of course, get into trouble.

Vigilance Is the Antidote IF THERE ever was a human enterprise from which you get in proportion only what you put into | it—it is the cockpit business. For instance, let's consider the psychological change that must be accomplished in the mind of a fighter pilot who intends to fly an 80-horsepower. putt-putt. Vigilance is the antidote to cockpit trouble. Vigilance means the expenditure of mental and sensory energy. Why vigilant to fly a little harmless toy airplane? Gosh, it's a slow little job. It's far more dangerous to step out of a highpowered combat plane into a low-powered job than vice versa. On the way up from low-power and lowperformance to high-power and high-performance there is the healthy sense of respectful fear for the speedster, It's fear that automatically speeds up the senses of a pilot unaccustomed to quick getaway, rapid climb, and high landing speed. He tackles the job with the alert vigor of a man going from a lesser to a greater task. He is spurred to his best effort, and the result usually is satisfactory. even though he doesn’t fly the fast job smoothly or with finesse. On the way down, howeyer, from high-powered performance to dawdling around in an 80-horsepower job, the average pilot who hasn't done his mentei! homework takes up his cockpit task in a lazy, condescending fashion.

By Eleanor Roosevelt

with anything their leaders proposed. But-that seems to me a rather strange argument. If you elect people to negotiate for you, I should think you would throw them out if you thought they had done a bad job, and would put in new. ones whom you trusted. If your union is run democratically, you should be free to do this. The same thing, I suppose, is the case where men are appointed to represent management. But I can't see how, on either side, satisfactory agreements can be reached unless the men selected are trusted by those back of them.

No Final Decision

NATURALLY, their deccisions should not be final. They should go back to those they represent for ratifications. But unwillingness to listen to what the leaders suggest and to their reasons for these suggestions, would seem to indicate a complete lack of proper trust in the chosen leaders. , One can only hope that the news this morning means that, on both sides, the responsibility which is theirs at’ the present time is beginning to give both labor and management a realization of the necessity of coming to an agreement which will be fair to all

SECOND SECTION A NEW WEEKLY

N last ‘week's column, I spoke about the little town of Friendship. This week I am sitting on the ranges of the National Muzzle Loading Rifle matches at Friendship, soaking .up some sunshine and a lot of lore about these old guns—used by our grandpappies in the rugged days when men and women did not worry about white shirts and nylon hose.

On target No. 36 is Charles Epperson, technician at the Pendleton post of the state police force. Let's move over ‘there and watch Charlie fire his entry on the Powell Crosley Jr. match. I guess 1 pick to ‘watch him seeing he lived for years.jin my home town of Greenfield. n » » FIRST of all, Charlie pours a hundred grains of black powder down the barrel of his 50 caliber L. Dickinson “beef gun,” so-called because it was used chiefly for beef killing in the old days. Charlie says this gun has a 48-

old. It never has been reconditioned for match shooting. He is just going to find out what the old fellow will do after its years of idleness. ~ ~ » CHARLIE'S next move is to take a large piece of blue and white bed ticking, and wet a patch of it by wiping it over his tongue half a dozen times. Even Dr, Tavenner of Gas City— who is firing next to Charlie—forgets all about the germ theory and soups-up his ticking patch like any old-timer, With the patch good and sloppy, Charlie puts it over the muzzle of the gun, centers a ball in its mouth —and sets the lead With a small mallet and short wooden punch. He then takes grandma's old butcher knife, cuts off the ticking close to the gun muzzle, pounds the ball and patch a little farther with a longer punch, then sends the ball “home” hickory ramrod. * ; A shooter who puts in a ball without a charge of powder becomes a member of the “bone-head club.” » » »

PUTTING a percussion cap on the firing pin Charlie is now ready to shoot. I did not time any of

close to a minute for a pioneer to ready his gun for the next Indian. In past years these shooters all fired from prone positions, wallow ing in dust or mud as the weather dictated. But Henry Boltz of Marion brought a firing bench to the 1937 shoot. At such a bench a fellow can sit comfortable in a folding chair (you can overstuff them if you wish) and fire in some sort of dignity. » » #

HENRY started a fad, so today hardly anyone fires from the ground; they all have their benches and chairs. . One fellow brought a piano stool. Another has a bench made of mahogany. Some of the less energetic ones, however, snitch mamma's ironing board. She may do her washing this week, but if she irons she'll have to do it on the kitchen table. I think I saw at least half a dozen such family pieces on the ranges, ~ » » - WITH THE GUN loaded and {resting on his distracted looking ironing board Charlie seats him-

his first shot. To hear some of the boys talk they take a lot of things into consideration—windage (one chap had a weather vane on his firing bench), elevation, light, atmosphere, blood pressure, income taxes and church contribution—before they shoot. 5 » »

GILBERT ANGEL of the Tennessee mountains, hearing some men discussing patches, bullet shape, windage and so forth interrupted with: “The’s jes one important matter you ain't mentioned yit.” “What's that, Gilbert?” “Don’t fergit the p'intin’,” said, dryly. Sime fellows contend that a heart beat may throw a shot clean over into the outer rings of the targef, so a shooter had better take a deep breath and hope all circulation! stops till he hits the bull's eye. ” » ” KER-WHOOM, ker-wham goes Charlie's gun, the hills picking up the sound and throwing it back and forth .in the ravines (they call them “hollers” down here). Charlie now turns to his “scope” (each shooter has his telescope) and squints at his target to see what sort of a shot he made. He reports he made. nine at 2 o'clock, which indicates he was a little above and to the right of the bull’s-eye, ° Coming back to his work bench, he cleans his gun, for this black powder makes a heap of dirt. » » » EACH TIME he shoots, Charlie cleans his gun. There are two schools of thought on this matter. One says you got to clean ‘er, the other says you don’t. So there you are—a division in the camp, If'n it was Indians you were after I'd say: “Let her go dirty.” Five ker-whoom, ker-whams, after a lot of licking and setting and ramming, gives Charlie a 46 score; out of a possible 50, with his old Dickinson. Which is not so ‘good in*match’ shooting. But very good for a gun whose rear sight was so

She glories in being pushed, in doing things the hard way, in rushing around. Stop for a three-minute chat with the average woman and what do you see—an easy-going, une hurried, calm person who has time for a friendly interest in you and your doings? » » » NO. THAT'S not the usual pice ture, Usually, you see a woman with a strained look on her face that comes from hurrying, from trying to squeeze too many activities into every day, from making mounstains out of molehills. Give her three minutés and you hear how busy she is, how much trouble she is having doing this or

her children, etc, And she says it all with an air of personal triumph-—as if there were. something noble about having too much to do. n ” » THAT'S THE catch, The modern woman thinks there is some virtue in rushing around, in never “having a minute” for anything, in making: out that keeping house and bringing up children is the hardest job .in the world, Doing things easily, is no longer a virtue among women.
