Schoettler reminded Juneau again that all anti-infan- tile paralysis funds ‘“come home | from Washington.” In the nation-wide fight on in- fantile paralysis, a dread disease that may strike anyhere, fifty per cent of funds raised are returned to the region from which they come and matched by Federal dollars. “It’s a good fight and a good chance to join the fight,” Schozttler |said, as dime banks on business | counters filled and the sale of tags, greeting cards and dance tickets | continued unabated, Through an oversight in The Em- pire yesterday, the powerful annual {anti-infantile paralysis drive, be- gun by President Franklin D.

Though the physical fatigue at the end of a successful fight may be more quickly overcome, it is not nearly as satisfying as a tiring battle won with words. Working as a novitiate writer at this studio has not only been a great pleasure, but it is comparable to an up-and-coming pre- liminary fighter getting a chance to fight all his fights in Madison Square Garden, the pugilistic theatre of fhe world. There, as at this studio, the beginner is given the opportunity to exhibit his talents before the eyes of connoisseurs, critics, and those of im- portance in their field Strangely enough, it seems I had always had the urge to write but never did anything about it. Now it strikes me as rather odd how the reactions of a new writer, assigned to a story, = t's the reception charming hostessess glve thoughtful guests who bring gifts of deliclous Van Duyn Candies.

Behrends Bank Juneat, Al “must come" guest. Try it} exc]usively FACSH VAN DUYN CHOCOLATE SHOPS are simflar to those which a fighter experiences when he first enters the ring. In both he undergoes that same period of ner- vous uncertainty; that same ghawing emptiness manifests itself in the pit of his stomach as he mentally plans ahd m@ps oit his course—until finally the actual slugging and punching out of words begins. In the first stages of his struggle the fighter (or writer) is one'his toes, cautiously feeling his way, remembeéring fristructions, careful not to let himself be pulled into a snag or trap—for if he does it will necessitate finding a new method of attack. Or if things move more smoothly and easily than anticipated, he may suddenly find himself becoming careless, thus leaving himself open. In either event, his vulnerable spot is unprotected with the result that his work is a disappointment to all who view it. Successive mistakes such as this make it hard to secure another assignment. Producers, like prize-fight promotérs, examine a writer’s last efforts—and he is usually as zood as his last per- formance. & * AllLin all, as far as my progress as a writer is concerned, I'm far from being a champion. I'm still in the preliminary fight- er's stage, going along, feeling that I'm improving with each new assignment and, as I did with each new fight, waiting for the day when I turn in a knockout performance that will skyrocket me to the top Bracket of main-eventers.
