Girdler, chairman of the board cf} Consolidated-Vultee Aircraft Cor- poration.

Imagine transoceanic planes! ‘lifting themselves from big city airports with the regularity of suburban busses — every hour on! the hour. Or picture a iocomotive plane) leaving New York with a train of six gliders filled with passengers. Grover Loening, consulting en-| gineer of Grumman Aircraft Cor-; poration and a.noted aircraff de- signer, says this picture will be. post-war reality, with one glider unhitthing over Philadelphia, another over Washington, Still others farther south: + C.’ Bedell Monro,' president of the Pennsylvania-Central Air- lines, announced recently his company had filed an application with the Civil Aeronautical Board to construct three steel is- lands as “stepping stones” in a trans-Atlantic route. The seadromes would be spaced. § at 800-mile intervals and would be available to all companies and} nations that qualify. 400-Passenger Ships | Airmen progress in plane; design and construction make all these predictions probable. Mort! of the major American domestic lines are now getting valuable training, working for the govern- ment and flying equipment for the| armed forces to England, Africa, to outposts in the Atlantic and Pacific. America’s pre-war _pio- neer in oceanic flying, Pan Amer- ican Airw is now operating with its subsidiaries and af- filiates over 100,000 miles of air routes, over Amazon jungles and Andes peaks, over the wastelands of Alaska. The airlines also. getting ready for lar, ale commercial trade abroad when peace ‘makes it possible. In the offices of the Civil Aeronautics Board in Wash- ington, applications for post-war routes are piling up. The Northeast Airlines of New England, fer example, hopes to fly passengers and freight to Mos. cow and other European cities. A Hawaiian line seeks permission to open a route from Hawaii to Los Angeles. A Pittsburgh freight hauling firm ts to operate by air, hauling heavy equipment like household furniture, refrigerators and’ pianos, anvwhere in this country and Alaska . Airmen the planes to do these jobs can be ready, too, when the call comes, Glenn Martin, Baltimore aircraft designer, and a pioneer in the field of aero- monsters, says transports of 125 and 150 tons will be common af- ter the war. Builder of the 70-ton ‘M world’s largest flying boat—Martin is said to have a 125-tonner ready for construc- tion. It is estimated that this ship would have a carrying capacity of about 80 tous—20 tons more than the average failroad freight car.

By CHIP ROYAL AP Features Writer NEW YORK, May 21.—Twelve-' year-old: Skippy Homeier is the most despised villain on Broad-{ way. It all started when Director El- liott Nugent of: “Tomorrow the World,” sent out a call for an “in- telligent boy actor” to play. the role of a vicious little fiend, the embodiment of Nazi youth. The call reached a radio studio; where Skippy was performing. He tried out for the part. His mother signed the contract. Since then Skippy has been | aling scenes and notices from veteran performers: Ralph. \Bel-| lamy and Shirley Booth, playing! a long and exacting part with con- fidence and poise.

Broadway's newest star has! blonde pompadour hair, blue eyes: and a fair skin. He is five feet tall and weighs about 82 pounds.! His boyish grin belies the grim- visaged Hitler-youth he portrays on the stage. : After he was born in Chicago, in 1931, his mother, who named him George Vincent Homeier, Jr., couldn't decide whether she pre-; ferred to call him George or Vin-; cent. One night the Homeiers went to a movie and saw Jackie| Cooper in “Skippy.” They liked it i, 3, ih BUMPS ‘EM OFF! so well they went home and called ; 3 their boy Skispy. / Skippy always has. been dra- maticaily inclined. When he was very young -he~.wouldn’t go'to sleep unless his. mother read to him. If she didn’t put enough em- phasis and drama in her reading; pe would make her do it over’ again until she got to the point! where she was almost acting. The family moved to New York City when Skippy was only a few| years old. He attended parochial } school until about’a year and a! half ago when the pressure of ra-| dio work made a tutor advisable. | Popular on Air H Up to the time Skippy was cast in “Tomorrow the World,” he was! studying dancing and_ singing.! Radio producers had predicted great things for the youngster as asong and dance artist. Mrs. Homeier had planned to keep him on. the airwaves until he was 16, ho} e would get a chance in! ay.show then. is all changed now by a run-of-the-play contract. The singing and dancing ~ must wait. Skippy has even changed his am-! bition. He had planned to be a} doctor when he grew up. 1 “It is just as well. though,” he smiles widely, “I lost my first pa- tient. Another and I found a cat which had been hurt by a dog. We doctored it up, but it died on! @ Many of the insect “enemies” that swarm the battlefronts — “plaguing the life” out of our sol- diers — die before the lethal blast of FLIT and our other insecti- cides.

But even the joy of basking becomes a bore in time. Mr. Little, now Mr. Big, is ambitious to be- ‘come Mr Bigger. Sitting with his feet on the desk, chewing a Corona, he sud- denly gets a grand and glorious idea. Why not expand his agency? Why not take in more territory Maybe his gresent job consists of looking after orphans. It has been a pleasant and profitable experi- ence, but the field is limited. His thoughts turn to Widows. Why couldn't the work be enlarged to take in a few Widows? That real- ly ought to be fun. Quick like a rabbit he calls his Special Attor- ney who enthusiastically con- curs, and a-bill drawn for intro- duction in the next legislature giving their bureau a little more power, a little more scope, a little more money. But ‘you can’t just pick expan- sion and power out of thin air un- less'you are a Huey Long or a | Johm L. Lewis. You have to kind of sneak up on it and grab it by the ‘halter when nobody is look- in‘—So the bureau's Publicity Man is put to work. The terrible plight of the pitiful Widow is broadcast in countless special releases. Data to prove the point is assembled and carefully prepared for pre- sentation at the proper time. No stone is left unturned. The duty to Orphans is all but forgotten as the bureau's staff launches its all- out effort to encompass the , Widows. Success crowns the ef- fort. Bingo! You become Mr. Big- ger, Commissioner of Widows and Orphans. But Widows, like Orphans, lose their glamor after you have been “taking care” of them for a while. So you begin thinking of better and greener pastures.— What about the Babies? Somebody —— > Tommie’s SKATING RINK SUMMER SESSIONS Afternoons! Tues. - Thurs. ‘eng 0 foe 200 - 10:30 p.m .

The law as passed provides 1. All persons operating unimcerperz ness or professions under any mame bat proper or known called names, must register “fictitious” trade name with the clerk ef the circuit court in the county where the principe! place of bas- ness is located. 2. A fee of $1.00 is charged for this registra tion. 3. Furthermore, the names of all persons terested, and the extent to which they are mterested must be registered as well. 4. Penalty for non-compliance denies ary un- registered business and those interested in doimg suc® business the right to defend or maintain suit m an court in this state, either as plaintiff or defendant. and it further provides that any person vielating this law regarding registration is liable te having an in- formation charging a misdemeanor filed against him by any person aggrieved by the fictitious name. and on conviction of such charge shail be liable te a fine of $25.00 or 60 days in jail, or both. 5. Before registration can be made, such im tention to register must be advertised at least ence 2 week for four (4) consecutive weeks in 2 newspaper as defined by law im the county where the registrs- tion is made. This law applies to Apartments, Hotels, Filling Stations, Cabin Courts, or business of any kind cept such as are operated under the mame of the owner. Lawyers generally agree that the terms “proper or called name” as used in the law would be like this example:. Suppose you are one of the numerous Jones family.: Suppose your proper name is “John Edward Jones,” but your called name is “J. ©. JONES.” Unless your business is actually operated under one or the other of these names you would be required to register.
