During his internship he had met a talented vocalist in Chicago with whom he had corresponded fre- quently, and who, after their sep- aration, had gone abroad to study.

The Ministry of Fuel and Power called for a ten percent reduction in coal consumption by gas com- panies and warned domestic users of further cuts in service, probab- ly equalling the five-hour restrict- ions on the use of domestice elec- tricity. i i GIRL SCOUT NEWS Court was then adjourned for the opening day. | e i MRS.
