By FLORENCE RYERSON and COLIN CLEMENTS (The popular fiction and screen team plunge into what they call a “stream of unconsciousness”—for Robbin Coons, on vacation.) HOLLYWOOD, Cal, Jan. 27—Now there’s no use getting panicky. I guess if Coons can do it every day I can do it once. Do what? Write a column. But what do you write? Why did I get into this, anyway? You know darned well WHY- Recause you never learned to say the word NO. That's why. One little two-letter word, and you couldn’t learn it. I suppose they cut it out of the dictionary you used in school. If you'd learned it you'd still have that lawn- mower . . . and about $500. And you wouldn’t have been dragged into that talk on gladioli, their past and future, at the Peter Pan Club. . . . This isn't getting me anywhere. I'm hysterical, that's what. Hysterical. I've got to concentrate. I've got to think what would interest people who read columns. What do people who read columns look like, anyway? Stop that. Stop that at once! You're only making things worse. I wonder . . . would they be interested in rural stuff? Little stories about the ranch? . .. No. Nobody’s interested in a ranch unless he owns one, and then he wants to talk about the blue ribbons he won on his cauliflowers instead of listening to what NOW AT Percy’s exclusively rn??/s\!r: reception charming hestessess give thoughtful guests who bring gifts of deliclous Van Duyn Candies.

Would they be interested in animals? What's interesting about having three dogs, six cats, a cow, a horse, and two monkeys? Anybody can have three dogs, six cats, a cow, a horse and two monkeys. Anybody who's crazy enough. And if you tell the story about putting up the box for pigeons and raising seven hoot-owls again, you won’t have a friend left in the world. Probably you haven't a friead left anyway, Maybe I could give a little good advice to young writers. - They're always sending letters, asking how to write novels, and plays, and scenarios. Yeah—and you're always telling 'em. But who wants to WORK, when it's easier to just sit down and write, like Saroyan? How about doing a little business in the Who's Who line? Toscing in BIG names, casually, like dog meat. That always seems to get over. ‘As Greta said to me at lunch only last week—" or “As I told dear old Hughie. I always call Walpole ‘Hughie'— because he doesn’t wear a mustache, you know.” No. That won't work. You've got to have practice for that. Speaking of time, how much longer have I? . Ten minutes? Now I know just how the doomed.-man feels when -he hears the firing squad marching down the hall. But all he has to face is death. I've got to face COONS, Who does this Coons guy think he is, anyway? Where does he get the idea he rates a vacation? What work does he do just sitting at a typewriter and click- ing out a column—one little, short column—a day? Oh, he’s on the phone, is he? Well, you just tell.him I'm out T've gone on a vacation. I'm counting on him as guest- novelist to write our next book and it bad better be GOOD! M THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, SATURDAY, JAN. 27, 1940.
