NEW MANAGEMENT GEO, LEWITT INC, / | Mina, The Flower Gi _{at Dicky’'s solicitude for the NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD. SATURDAY, MARCH 1 News For Theatergoers and ~ How Madge Was Left Alonc in the Crowd., * Dicky was plainly worried. I could | s€e that as the crowd in.front, to the sides and behind us swayed and jostled each other in the successive surges forward toward the doors of Madison Square Garden where the Pregident was scheduled to speak. ““They must, be letting just a few in at a time and then holding them up for a while,”” he muttered as the crowd surged forward, and then a moment later pressed backward as if |some force in front were pushing them | back. For myself, I was deathly afraid. I had never been in such a crowd be- fore.” I .mentally resolved ~that -1 never would get in,one like it agaih. ‘T, was not suffering. much physical discomfort, for I am rather tall, and, therefore. 1 had- no difficulty breathing, as did’' so many other women near me ~ who were ‘shoner than I. Mentally, however, [ was much disturbed by the fact that rchky seemed to have no particulatr fear\for me, but was intensely inter- :ested in the prediciment of the two girls whom I had seen him greet but "f few moments' before, and then re- assure across the heads of the crowd. . Inaifew rather disjointed sentences lhe ‘had explained who they were, and | the -reason for his Interest in them, *“T'wo ' Virginia gir] he had said. “F."F. V.'s-and all t sort of rot. Think they're studving art, but they'll never amount to a hill of beans at it. . Mighty nice girls, though. Have a studio in my building, and . every man and woman in the building looks out of them. Regular Babes in the ‘Wood they are/ both of them. Wgy all wish to the Lord some nice man ‘would come along and marry them. “Want to Get Out®” “Both of them at once?’ I asked quizzically, aJthough I felt in 'any- thing but a quizzical mood; The silly question served to yeil my displeasure girls, however, and that was all I wanted. ‘Dicky grinned. “Got your kiddin’ clothes on tonight, haven’t you?” he quoted—an expression that he knew 1 loathed. *The grin faded from his face in an in of ths Intense {tching ‘and Burning Made b gemmsmwuvgs«m * Healed in One Month by &nicunri *‘When about one !+ body began. to be r old doing.

This time a shrill scream rent the air from the lips of a fat woman near us. “Oh, ‘Oh!” she wailed, ‘‘don’t push so. You're cryshing my ribs in.” “It would take more weight than this crowd .to crush. that woman's ribs in,” Dicky commented cynically. She’s too well uphoistered to be crushed.” F, I had heart to retort. In the sickening surge back against me when the crowd pushed back I had feared that my own ribs would be crushed, but I had ghoked back the cry that rose to mg: lips. I had re- solved grimly that no matter what happened I would mot scream. )or complain. ‘| We were m’lun: such discouraging progress;, too./ All ground us people werg_counting the billars of the col- onniide.

Dicky declared, “and they “safd they would not hold the reserved seat. spaces after § o'clock. What do you say? Want to try to get out?” How I longed to thke*him at his word and wriggle dut of the crowd if it were a possible thing to do so.
