Infra-red and violet-ray photo- graphy revealed the secret of the Portrait, which is valued at $8,- 880. Only one figure can be seen by the naked eye. Director Daryl Lindsay of the National Gallery said perhaps Degas had run out of canvas and had to paint over another of his works.

He does it chiefly by writing letters—thousands of them—and by inducing thousands of other per- sons to write to each other. He ed Nations armed forces to help | him distribute the mail. Uncle Larry also stages vaude- ville and variety shows at veter- ans’ hospitals. He’s an ex-vaude- villian and although he’s 49 and his gray fringe looks a little sorry | on top, he still cam dance and Toller skate on his hands. Another project is his “cookie relay.”” He claims he’s persuaded high school domestic science class- es in every state in the union to make Easter cookies and send them to the UN forces in Korea and Japan. Letters from shut-ins and the blind are given special attention. He introduces blind persons, via letters, to blind service men at Wadsworth Veterans Hospital near here. Perkins also entertains GIs at his modest bachelor’s home; it is bulging with such items as 400 pairs of riding and cowboy boots, beautiful leather cowboy costumes which he designed himself, civilian and everywhere bundle of letters. Uncle Larry keeps the cowboy costumes because servicemen like to have their pictures taken in them. His house also contains many gifts from grateful Gls, including shoulder patches, service ribbons and medals. He is especially proud of a gift from Ist Sgt. W. F. Webb, Princeton, West Va. It is the field coat of the late Gen. George Pat- ton, who placed it over Webb as the latter lay wounded on a stretch- er in North Africa in 1943, The genial gent, who has diffi- culty finding time to make a living as a gardener, also conducts a i bureau in the missing persons .| armed forces. ‘His “search lists” are posted at many military camps. His big interest, of course, is | his relay mail system. He's talked dozens of coeds at the University of California at Los Angeles and young people from churches and other groups into writing letters, starting them simply, “dear cous- in.” The letters are sent to relay agents in Army, Navy and Air Force units who distribute them | to men who need them. Many newspapers send him let- ters they receive from lonely Gls. Although he’s a bachelor and lives alone, Uncle Larry says he has found the cure for loneliness. It’s simple, he says: Just try to help other people from feeling that way. See it! Tey it! Buy itt Studebaker Starliner 1952 Commander V-8 or Champion The “hard-top” with the new swept-back lines!
