Previous engagement will prevent my having this pleasure, but I do seize this opportunity to congratulate you and your staff of World War II veterans on giv ing Asheville its third radio sta tion. Asheville, Buncombe Coun ty and Western North Carolina are also to be congratulated. I personally and officially welcome you to the North Carolina radio field and wish you every success ,in your new enterprise.” The new radio station is staffed by veterans of World War II throughout. Mr. Rabell recently separated from the Navy as a Lieutenant Commander, was in charge of an LST division and participated in the Iwo Jima, Oki nawa and Tokyo landings.

The bell, presented on behalf of the Southern by Ernest E. Norris, the railway’s president, will re place a cherished, 139-year-old church bell destroyed in a fire that swept the Moravian Church of Bethania, N. C., in October, 1942. In 1807, when the church was built, the founding members con tributed coins and treasured trink ets of gold, silver, and copper from which the bell was cast in Phila delphia. For generations, its pleasant call, mellowed by age, was heard throughout the country side, and its loss in the fire was keenly felt by the entire commun ity. When the church was restored, a search was begun to find a bell having the tonal quality of the original bell. But the hunt was unfruitful, due to the war and the metal scarcity. Finally, one of the members of the church, Frank T. Millsr, a prominent citizen of Greensboro, N. C., recalled the beautiful tones of some of the lo comotives bells of his boyhood days. He "wftSse" a letter to the president of the Southern Rail way. So an aged, but still useful, lo comotive bell is now on its way to church. After traveling a mil lion miles and more on an “Iron Horse,” warning millions of peo ple of the approach of a train, and heralding the arrival and de parture of loved ones up and down the Southern’s lines, it soon will ring out on the Sabbath from the tower of a Bethania, N. C., church, summoning the faithful to wor ship and bringing joy to all the community. “Fly” Says Bill POWER OFF STALL Partial stall: From straight and level flight close the throttle ful ly; climb plane by application of elevator pressures, gradually caus ing a reduction of air speed and control pressures. As the plane begins to settle, recovery is made just before the break of the actual stall. To futher effect rapid re covery and mimimum loss of al titude, the application of full pow er is desired. Heading must be held constant and wings level, without use of ailerons. Normal stall: This maneuver is the same manner as the partial stall, except that a full breaking stall is desired. Power is used on recovery so that a minimum of altitude is lost. Application of full nower is desired, coordinated with forward stick. Complete stall is started the same as a partial stall. Full-up elevator is used and held until th« nose of the plane cuts through the horizon after the break. The wings are held level and the heading constant without the use of sfflerons. Recovery is effected by allowing the plane to regain flying speed in a normal glide without applL cation of power. NOTE: Make it a rule to turn carburator heat on before closing throttle. Look in all directions, particularly below, before exe cuting a stall Remember: on all pow«r-on and power-off stalls wings are held level without the use of afterons- ISpwspnpprman's .Y otes: Besides being a vegetarian, George Bernard Shaw is a hater ot any sort of physical exertion. . . Outside of occasional bicycling he debunked all athletics. Once, they say, Sandow. the Great Strong Man, cornered Shaw. . . . “Look at me, he boasted, pounding his frontage. “I can lift elephants, pianos and 20 men on my chest!” "Oh, foof!” said Shaw. “I want to keep bores off mine!” Hy Gardner memos about the time Ann Sheridan, the star, met Jose Iturbi in Hollywood. . . ■ The talented man suggested that Ann phone him when she came to New York. . . . When she arrived here, she was a bit foggy about his name and addressed him as "Jose Shurbert.” ... A few hours later she received a reply. ... It was addressed to: "Ann Schlepper man." It happened In Buenos Aires. A minor gov’t official bristled into the American Consulate. . . . Ignoring the room full of people, he stormed over to the receptionist and de manded an audience with the Con sul. ... He was politely informed there were several ahead of him. "But I am Gonzales!” he bel lowed, impatiently glancing at his wrist watch. "At two o’clock I have the appointment.” “I am Joe Kelly,” replied the American in his best North Pole manner, “and at two o’clock you have the disappointment.” Zachary Scott was at a meeting where a lad with a fine war record made a speech. ... It was dull, and the audience started walking out. ... A man who meant well got up and announced: “Gentlemen, please sit down. This boy has gone through hell for us, we can do as much for him!” One of the pet newspaper quips deals with the reporter assigned to cover an affair staged by the Great er New York Fund. ... He turned his copy in carelessly and tardy. . . . The city editor bawled him out. “What’s the idea,” barked the boss, “of writing ‘among the most beautiful girls was a Congress man’? You’ve got him wearing skirts!” “I can’t help that,” was the re ply. “That’s where he was!” The Quipping Post: Nicol Smith, author of the soon-due book, “Into Siam, Underground Kingdom,” was an officer in the OSS. . . . One day he found himself seated next to a quiet little man at a Washington banquet. . . . “I’m Nicol Smith, Cloak and Dagger,” said Smith introducing himself. . . . “Gled to mitt you,” was the reply. “I’m Abe Lapidus, Clukk and Suiter!” . . . Add snappers to people who boast of being self-made men: Horace Greeley stifled one such wijh this: “That, sir, relieves the Almighty of a terrible responsibility!" . . . Sev eral members of the literati were moaning about the shortage of good hooch. . . . John Powers sighed and intoned: “That’s what is known as wishful tanking.” Quotation Marksmanship: M. Carter: She indexed her memories, but time had shuffled the cards. B. Lytton: A stiff man, starched with self-esteem. . . . Gene Fowler: To hide a secret from her is like trying to smuggle daybreak past a rooster . . . Susan Cooper: Their eyes drew swords. . . . Ben Hecht: She looked like something carved out of a marshmallow. . . . Oscar Wilde: I can resist anything except temptation. . . . Larry Finley: They were joined in holy wedluck. Evelyn Knight: It was four ho hum in the morning. . . . Schopen hauer: Rascals are always socia ble. . . . Anon: The trouble with life is that there are so many beautiful women—and so little time > The Army short which shows what Hiroshima looks like. It won’t be released because in one scene you see the imprints of bodies that were blown right into the pave ment. . . . The talk that Mike Jacobs will retire after the Louis- Conn fight. ... The two mid western mfrs who were bilked out of $64,000 by a tout outfit. They haven’t hollered because they fear the publicity will make them na tional jokes. . . . The glamazon named Gloria Camera (she's 6-3) and she hasn’t fiddle-feet, either . . The talk that Lucille Simmons of the shows may wed a coffee mil lionaire. . . . Sandra Rambeau ditch ing the British “mint” she was re ported engaged to. . . . The all- Chinese gal show at the beautiful ly appointed China Doll on 51st St We offer that soldier Chris Mor ley’s merciless doggerel, to wit: "I came home from years of war. Ev erything was fike before. People Hadn’t changed a bit. That’s the awful part of it!” Sounds in tSe Night: At Reuben's: “He will pat you on the back to your face and stab you in the hear behind your back,” . . . At th Stork: "His father’s success went i his head." ... At the Anch Room: "I saw her at the track yes terday.” . . “In which race?” N. c.
