Around ______._—5——‘?;*——b There’s No Pilgrim-Like Feeling in a Drizzly Plymouth ‘Dawn. \ This is the first of a series of articles on places and people in England and France, as they &p- pear to a -Star reporter traveling at random. BY 1. WILLIAM HILL, Staft Correspondent of ‘s he Star. LYMOUTE, England.—It was 5 am. The ocean liner floated at anchor in the Plymouth harhor. “ In the night the gen- tle throb of engines had ceased, leav- ing a tense and bewildering silence. After six days at sea, the sound of engines had become significant, for it was inextricably interwoven with the splash of waves and the spearhead of foam the ship had drawn across the water. But it was more. The waves changed. The spear- head of foam lost its reality in the night. But the hum of the engines was something constant, continuous and familiar. Although a part of the romantic feeling of going somewhere, it was something stable, something one could contemplate with a sense of peace. Now even that was gone. Nothing remained but the lonely an- ticipation of uncertainty in a foreign land. Birth of a Traveler. It is at that moment that one becomes a traveler abroad. On liners, even where French is spoken con- stantly, the passenger is still guest and Food, comfort and entertainment are everywhere without even the inconvenience of thought. The voyager only needs bestir himself to decide whether he will dine on breast of squab or saddle of mutton, But when the throb of the engines ceases in Plymouth Harbor, he is no longer the privileged guest. He s about to become' a foreign intruder, regarded with varying degrees of curi- osity and suspicion. Especially if it is his first trip abroad, he must remain tensely conscious at all times, #nd bewildering. There is not even the “encoursgement. of a ‘well-known signboard, There is no rest at all, for there is nothing familiar—nothing, unless it be the darkness in which he lies down at night to sleep. Ahead the Customs Officers. It was as we began to realize this feeling that we descended the narrow gangplank from the liner to the ten- der that would deliver us to shore at the spot from which the pilgrims set sail more than 300 years ago. But somehow, in the cold and rainy stone gray of an English dawn, it was diffi- cult to awaken enthusiasms over the pilgrims. Ahead were the customs officers. Shipboard conversation had bujlt them up to two-headed ogres, nervously waiting to ply one with embarrass- ing questions and exact unconscion- able duties for a few cigarettes in one’s baggage. As we contemplated the “torture” we were about to en- dure, we forget the lonely bewilder- ment of an entrance into a strange land. * As we hoisted our baggage to a low counter, one of the “monsters” ap- proached and courteously handed us a printed list of dutiable articles— liquors, tobacco, tea, etc. Then he turned to examine the contents of some one else's traveling bag. All Too Easy. As we pondered the list scores of our fellow passengers milled about opening suit cases and trunks.

When the customs officer re- turned to us, we told him to take care of the others first, that we had plenty of ttme. He glanced at us incred- through the customs. For a moment we had a jubilant feeling. - Then there was regret. We hadn’t gotten our shére of attention. Tt had been too easy. Now we couldn’t tell - terrifying story about how heartless English .- customs officials were. It's strange how traveling trou- bles are the high spots of one's mem- ories when a trip is done, Fytile Feelings. By now we were out in the cold, gray drizzle again, out on & narrow, cobblestone street, walled with ancient stone houses. That feeling of bewil- derment returned. Here was Plym- outh. Here was England. Here was Europe. But what to do? Where to go? No one was expecting'us any- where. No matter where we went we would see things we had never seen before. But how to start? For the first time in our life there seemed to be an over-supply of time. And, instead of a feeling of happiness, there was only a sickening sense of strangeness, vagueness, futility. never entered a “place of interest for tourists” in America plunge into‘a castle visiting. They don't know what else to do. In a sudden, heipless panic, people who have disdained his- tory as a cold, dead thing spring ravenously. on historic but familiar names that have haunted their school books—the Cathedral of Exeter, the London Tower, Windsor Castle. Something Really Intercsting? There is proof that people do these things against their own desire. Ask any Englishman who has entertained visiting Ameyicans after they have been on their own a while, They always ask him: “Isn't thete some place you can take me that's really interesting— some place that tourists rarely see?” Only one thing can prevent the This feeling does strange things to | helpless feeling.

We lost our helplessness as we entered the cus- toms office because there was some- thing definite ahead to be done, and, as we stcod there in the rain, it was the memory that we wanted to see things about which we could write little stories that saved us from fall- ing back on a morning in & museum. Considerably cheered, we set forth. Then we gulped and felt strange again. Girls were flocking out of a candy factory, traffic had stopped, and even the bobbies were staring in a courteous way. And why? Because we were walking with an American girl who had put on a red cellophane raincoat, the kind that is light and easy to carry, but rather starchy look- ing when worn. We suppose it did look rather like a red bon-bon wrap- ping to the always conservative Eng- Alpha Delta Phi to Elect. Election of officers and a talk by Lieut. Col. John Alden Crane, U. 8.
