There is some talk about the current story in Reader's Digest bv Robert" Ruark who allows he gave up a $65,000-a-year job and left New York because he "couldn't stand it any longer." Now I wouldn't argue with Bob, a fellow columnist I've known for years, because he's a nice guy and a truthful fellow. Another reason I wouldn't want to impugn his ver acity, as we used to say in college when we wanted to impress some body with big words, is because Bob is now in Spain and might ;fire back at me in Spanish, and I don't understand Spanish. But what I'm trying to say is, that Bob i didn't tell the whole story. In the article he goes on to say that he had his column in a bout 200 newspapers, but the only trouble was he had to write it from New York. Well, my column runs in a similar number and I write it from New York by choioe because there are more interesting stories here than any other place I know. Bob said that nobodv he knew was happy in New York. All I can | reply is that the genial cuss should have got out and met some of the folks I know and he would have changed his mind. Furthermore, I don't believe Ruark meant what he said in this regard, for I was with him at a meeting of Sigma Delta Chi fraternity brothers the oth er night, and I haven't heard so much laughing in a coon's age, as they say down in North Caro lina where Robert Ruark comes from?I myself being from way across the Smoky Mountains in Tennessee, at least a hundred miles from Kuark's Pappy's house as the turkey buaard flies. The exiled columnist further states in his brief agin New York that his days were so filled with phones, parties and shindigs that he only had time to write at night. Well now, that's better than goin' out to these here night clubs j where they charge you $10 a square foot for parking your car | cass, the food being thrown in. ! Robert alleges that New York had lost its glamor for the" country boy. Maybe so'' for him?you see, ! he was pulled a little bit young down in Carolina and probably , should have been left to ripen a bit more on the vine before tear-in' loose here at Gotham. As for this country bay?meanin' myself and making no comparison with Ruark except for clarity purposes?I see something new each day in New York which makes me open my mouth and say "Gee Whiz!" or epithets to that effect. Perhaps I am more of a country boy, maybe so much so that I will never get j the country out of me. Fact is, I don't, want to.

Robert reveals that he lived in a penthouse and knew everybody from Bernie Baruch to Frank Costello. I know Baruch but I don't wanna know this Costello, unless he's the .one who's as sociataed with a bird named Ab bott and acts funny. Now you see, Robert apparently didn't know the right people. As far as Tom Lea, the Texas author causin' Bob to leave, I came to New York from Texas and dear ly love to go back to tha* Lone Star nation, but unlike Stanley Walker who also penned a piece about why he left New York, I am willing to return to this here Babylon-on-the-15-cent-sub ways and write about it for folks from Rhode Island to Colo rado who don't yet realize how bad it is. Robert relates that this town is a "rat race." Right Here I'd like to rise to a point, of column-writing order and af firm that I've been here four teen years, longer than Bob was, and I've yet to see a rat in Manhattan. Some Giant base ball fans told me there were some in Brooklyn but I've never had the chance to confirm this. Last rats I saw were on a farm down South. We used to shoot at them in the barn on rainy days. Not that this column has not made many unfavorable remarks about New York. It has, plenty. But let's give the devil his dues? even if they are $65,000 a year. New York has its ups, it has its downs. Personally I prefer to think of the sun rising over its majestic skyscrapers, rather than getting over the lessening slums. Lots Of people here are unhappy and failures but many more are childishly eager for more of New York, and strive onward to attain a high success which is not avail when company calls.. serve we Finest..... Two Cooks Improve The Broth r ***?" jmmmm \ ???em m ?1?ninii\M ' mr SOUTHERN CORN BREAD ? Good with pork chops or ham. - By CECLIy BROWNSTONE Associated Press Food Editor FRIENDS coming to dinner? You would like to loll with the company, sipping a drink, bemused by a bowl of potato chips? Grab a kitchen partner and in 20 minutes get your supper menu ready to put in th broiler, the oven, and on top of the range. No reason why you should do all the work. See who's willing. Hus band the helpful kind? Beau still new enough to want to make a good impression? Sister, brother or girl friend ? one of the guests? Here's how we got a quick din ner for four recently, with one eye on the clock and delicious results. Friend Emmie?born in Waynes boro, Georgia?was our helper, so naturally our menu had a South ern tone. Main ' course was HAM. We used two half-inch slices of the boiled meat, weighing altogether a little over two pounds, and broil ed them to a mouth-watering turn in our electric rotisserie. If you haven't yet acquired one of these wonderful cooking helps, put the ham under the broiling unit of your range. On the ham went a magnificent sauce ? Emmie's inspiration. She said that before she worked out the recipe, she walked around for days "tasting it in my head." Thus are recipes born! We call it HAM TO-ICE CREAM SAUCE because we've discovered it tastes wonder fulu on either. ASPARAGUS was our vegetable; we used the frozen variety, but canned would be fine and take even less time to prepare. With these we had HALFWAY CORN BREAD ? a cross between spoon bread and regular Southern corn bread. It boasts a special step that achieves an unusual custardy layer. The recipe follows?try it and see. I clocked the preparation of the corn bread and it took about 10 minutes from the time I start ed to prepare it until it was in Cottonseed Aid Cancer HAMPTON, S. C. (AP)?Hamp ton County cottonseed is being collected to fight cancer. The county cancer fund campaign com mittee devised this plan at the opening of the cotton picking sea son: Each cotton grower is asked to give a handful of seed from his gined cotton. Gens, where the seed will be sold and the proceeds are cooperating and boxes are pro vided there for the contribution. At the end of the season, the seed will be sold an the proceeds will go to the fund. able anywhere else. It is not easy. The struggle takes its toll, but most of those who make it are wonderfully happy. Sure, they go away and visit the old home place, bu^ usuallv, they are anxious to get back: We wili miss Bob Ruark, wish him .well. There -was only one thing wrong.-He tried to be a New Yorker. Nobody can really do that. CARD OF THANKS We wish to express our deep ap preciation for the kindness shown ns. during the death of our hus band and father, and for the beau tiful flowers. MRS.
