He answered the ad and it led him through some amazing adven- tures and eventually to Hollywood. The ad man was Bob. Mcllvaine, a slim fellow with thinning hair and burning ambition.’ The. ambi- tion was to run a newspaper. ‘ “During the war, I wes-in‘ the Navy for five years,” he explained. “I was at sea during most of that time. You know, when you're at sea for a long time, you get some queer notions. I got the fixation that I wanted to publish a weekly newspaper in a small town.” When the war was over, Mcll- vaine went back to his old: job, but the urge to be a publisher wouldn’t die. One day he’ -was skimming over the classified a in Editor and Publisher, the news- paper trade magazine. He .came across what sounded like an at- tractive offer. He scraped together enough money for the purchase- price, $5,000, But when he arrived with his family in Downington, Pa., to assume charge of the Archive, he discovered the ideal was not as grand as it had appeared. “There was supposed to be some- thing like 1,800 circulation,” he recalled. “By. the time we. had checked off the people who had died and so forth, it came to about 60.”" The physical plant left much to be desired. It was a rickety build- ing in the middle of a used ear lot. But Mellvaine. and his wife Jane shouldered their disappoint- ment and started in to build a newspaper. would stay only long enough to get the experience for better jobs. The weekly was faced with the“ com- petition of three dailies in towns about a dozen miles away. But ef- ter a few years of arduous labor, Jane and Bob were’ able to build the Archive into a profitmaking venture with 2,500 circulation.

A flood results. “Something like that really hap- pened,” said McIlvaine. “We had a drought in Pennsylvania and I thought it would be a good stunt to bring on some rain. I hunted all over for some dry ice, finally got some and had a plane standing by. Just as it was about to take off, the rain started and we had flash floods and everything. “I wrote in the paper that ‘we like to think that the Archive end- jed the drought.’ ” MAY BE REPAIRED BY Naming Of Conant As Commissioner Is Challenged t WASHINGTON — A writer- economist here challenged the nomination of Dr. James B. Conant to be U. S. high commissioner to Germany. Sen. Taft (R-Ohio) told reporters he thought the witness “made a good case” against Conant. Taft, who is the Republican floor leader in the Senate, added, how- ever, that he does not believe the Foreign Relations Committee which is studying the Conant nomination will act adversely on the selection. The witness who appeared at a secret committee session was John T. Flynn, at one time a backer of New Deal programs but more recently a bitter critic of former Presidents Roosevelt and Truman. He wrote “The Roosevelt Myth.” Conant is a former president of Harvard University. A number of Roman Catholic groups have pro- !tested his selection, arguing that he is opposed to parochial schools. Others have said this is not so. Chairman Wiley (R-Wis) told re- porters Flynn touched on the re- ligious issue, but that he concen- trated his attack on Conant by asserting that he backed the con- troversial Morgenthau plan in 1944. ‘This called for largely dismantling Germany’s industrial plant after Allied victory in World War II in favor of an agricultural economy. Conant listened to Flynn’s testi- mony. The educator is to get a The committee meanwhile was awaiting word on whether it will be given access to secret informa- tion on Gen. Walter Bedell Smith, a longtime friend and associate of Eisenhower, who has been nom- inated for undersecretary of State. International Organization Gives Hope By ADELAIDE KERR NEW YORK (# — A lonely old immigrant enroute from a German refugee camp to America had a few hours free in Paris and lost her way. The foreign city and tongue con- fused and frightened her. In her terror she began to run frenziedly back and forth and mutter to her- self. Police picked her up as men- tally deranged and took her to a hospital. She might have been detained there indefinitely and missed her ship if hospital attendants had not found in her pocket correspondence from the International Social Ser- vice, which had arranged her trip. Matters soon were straightened out and the old immigrant was sent on her way to the land of her dreams, behaving normally again as soon as she felt herself under- stood.

It’s mod- ern on the outside, that is. Inside it’s a colorful and comfortable jumble of: early Americana and {assorted antiques and bric-a-brac representing a collector's utopia. Dohanos grins sheepishly: “Well, after all, some of that angular modern stuff isn’t too com- fortable, and somehow it just | gradually seemed to disappear. I figure we've settled this thing fair- ly. I have my modern house and my wife has her traditional furni- ture. It’s kind of homier this way.” | Dohanos, who depicts the typical jAmerican family in many: phases for his magazine covers, doesn’t paint glamor girls. But in spite of this he’s one of the favorite cover artists of American women. The is this: “I’m sympathetic, I guess. ‘You don’t have to flatter women to make them like you. You just have to understand their.problems, and sympathize.” A case in point was a cover Dohanos did last summer, showing a weary housewife in the kitchen of a beach cottage, drying the last }dish and looking fondly out the window at her husband, stretched out on the sand enjoying a sun bath while their small son played nearby. Every line of the woman’s body showed weariness, but her face showed loyal devotion. She obviously didn’t mind that this va- cation was just the same old: grind for her—the family was ha’ fun.
