Dignified Columbia University
Lists Ten Most Boring Books
NEW YORK, July 3—(AP)—
What are the 10 most boring
books in the world. , . . that ig,
among the great classics?
Anyone who's been through an
English course has his own ideas
about that.
But the staid and dignified Co
lumbia University press, tired of
taking votes for “the 10 best
books,” decided 1o pin down the
10 most boring.
- Through its magazice “The
Pleasures of Publishing,” it polled
hundreds of editors, writers, book
sellers, librarians, literary critics
and amateurs.
The results were printed yes
terday.
They will bring fiendish joy to
high school anc: college students—
and little but pain t» their teach
ers. Taken all in all, the “uninter
esting ten” might be the required
reading list of any well-conducted
school.
Shakespeare’s Plays
A few votes went for the Old
Testament. Some went for the
Kinsey report. Shakespeare, as
2pou might guess, was well repre
sented—l 7 of his plays got the
Bronx cheer.
But none of these was the win-
Rer.
That palm, if you can call it a
palm, went to that sturdy old
standby — John Bunyan's *“Pil
grim's Progress.”
Then, in descending order, came
the following literary monuments:
Melville’s “Moby Dick,” Mil
ton's “Paradise Lost,” Spenser’s
*Faerie Queene,” Boswell’'s “Life
of Samuel Johnson,” Richardson’s
*“Pamela,” Eliot's “Silas Marner,”
Yeotts “Ivanhoe,” Cervantes’ “Don
Quixote,” and Goethe’s “Faust.”
. Sheakespeare couldn’t get near
@hese. This most boring play—ac
rding to the poll—was “As You
fl’ke It,” and it was only No. 31
on the list.
But George Eliot, who wished
#Silas Marper” on generations of
Righ sehed! sophomores, managed
to get three other novels inside
the top 30.
“In fact,” said Fon W. Board
man, the magazine editor, “Eevery
book that was ever on a high
school reading list was mentioned
at least once.’
Most of the winners, he said,
were longer than usual, tended to
ward moralizing, and created a
*gloomy” atmosphere.
“Don’t ask us what it proves,”
he said — and ducked.

Never has the military moved so swiftly, surely and suc

This is the time of the year
when the nicest girls get the sil

give the sallowest looking youth a
healthy coat of tan — which acts
like a venetian ©blind over his
real self.
Boys you wouldn’t take a sec
ond look at during the cold winter
months leok awfully good under
the sunrmer moon in white jack

But don’t let their purring fool
you. Remember all the prepara
tions Red Riding Hood's wolf
made to deceive that poor little
girl, Some boys hibernate all win
ter long, save their money for
summer weekends and vacations
when they can strut their stuff
and add another little scalp to
their belts.
The thing that makes it so easy
is that girls are more receptive to
romance during the summer
months. They invest a large por
tion of their savings in clothes and
vacation, and they've just gotta
nrake it pay off. They feel that if
they can’t find a “fella” when they
are at their best, they’ll have to
wait for another vacation.
Is it any wonder, then, that they
listen to the small gibberish of
the professional vacationer — and
they want to believe what they
hear. After a few years of soaking
up this sort of patter, a gal gets
smart, Fortunately, she will not
marry any of these vacation cow
boys, because they’re not the mar=
rying type.
You'll recognize them by a pat
tern —the steady, smooth deep
throated drawl, always quick to
pay a compliment, they listen tol
erantly and show interest in
everything you say. They are the
tender kissers (a deep warm kiss
on your hand or forehead). They
bide time with you whether it is
a juke box or an orchestra, and
almost immediately there will be
a song for “just us two.”
The trouble with identifying
the spots on this type of Romeo
is that he always seems so nice.
He is solicitous about your Moth
er and Aunt Tillie, and loves to
talk about his home life, Some
times he’ll compare you with Mom
or Sis or maybe his favorite ac
tress.
That is the crushing thing about
this romance. When it is all over,
and the Casanova drifts off to a
new prospect, he’ll look perfect i~
the eyes of his discarded chick,
because he is adept at leaving
these situations on friendly terms.
The girl will wonder just why
she couldn’t hold him, and blame
herself,
Sometimes a girl is likely to
pass up the boy who wants to
have fun on a vacation or a week
end or even a day’s outing but
isn’t a “mush mouth.” Chalk this
up to inexperience or dignity or
respect for female companion
ship.. But don’t pass up the boy.
If he gets to like you, he can be
come adept at sweet nothings—
but he’ll mean them, sincerely.
You can have more fun with him
in the long run and not a scarred
heart to show for it when the sum
mer is over.
He might be tanglefooted on
the dance floor, not so glib under
a pretty moon and not try to hog
all your time when other boys are
around, But you probably can
have fun with this boy on the
tennis court, golf links, picknick
ing, fishing and at baseball games.
If he holds your hand, it prob
ably will be because he's fond of
you, not because it represents a
challenge to him, It is only by un
derstiding and experience that
one learns about character. Give
some thought to it and you will
be able to differentiate between
the boys that count and those that
do not, Then feel complinrented
that you can depend upon a nice
boy for companionship—one way
a relationship can develop into
true love.

FALL FORECAST ~
This diamond necklace, draped -
over the forehead from a grotio
blue organza turban, forecasts =
fashion for mext fall by Paris
designer Schiaparelli.
MONDAY, JULY & 1854,
Here are the play-by-play de
tails of how unification met its
first action test:
For more than a year members
of the Joint Chiefs of Staff have
known that the Korean situation
was explosive. They had prepared
several detailed plans of action to
fit various emergencies, including
the one that occurred. These plans
were kept up-to-date, down to the
last detail of where every warship
was, how many planes would be
available and who were the cur
rent field commanders.
The failure of Far East intelli
gence men to tip off the exact
time and place of the outbreak
was a negligible factor.
In a recent 60-day period 30
outbreaks had occurred at the
horder and a modified alert al
ready existed.
Also, the plan which the Presi
dent selectr:d called for a brief
wail, to sce whether or not the
South Xoreans could put up a de
fense worth supporting.
On Sunday, June 25, it was the
National Security Council, created
by the unification law for exactly
this purpose, which gathered at
the White House. Members are the
President, Vice President, Secre
taries of State and Defense, and
the head of the National Security
Resources Board, Stuart Syming
ton.
No previous president ever had
an organization like the NSC
available to him in a erisis like
this. In a few hours the minor ad
justments necessary to bring them
up-to-date were nrade in the alter
native plans, Then they were laid
before the President with all the
details in a package.
The one he picked called for
tactical air support, employment
of the Seventh Fleet, the supply
ing of arms and equipment, with
General MacArthur in top com
mand. It also called for a brief
wait to see what the South Ko
reans would do. When they coun
ter-attacked, before the fall of
Seoul, that was evidence enough
that U. S. aid wouldn’t be poured
down a rathole.
When the President made his
decision, MacArthur opened up
his part of the packaged plan. it
defined his mission and authority,
and detailed the command set-up.
His stats — a creature of unifica
tion with Air Force, Army and
Navy commanders working to
gether—was able to begin putting
all parts of the overall plan into
effect immediately,
All the General had to do was
to make the necessary adjust
ments to fit the tactical situation.
The use of ground troops can be
fitted into the plan.
The delay and confusion saved
by these pre-set arrangements can
probably be fully appreciated only
by military men who were at
Pear] Harbor or who have experi
enced the difficulties of adjusting
to such a situation.
Everywhere in the Pentagon can
be seen other evidences of unifi
cation’s efficiency. Secretary John
son has been gently fibbed for
moving the top brass close to his
office. But under the old arrange
ment it used to take up to half a
day to collect the generals and ad
mirals from all over the city, Now
it takes seconds to get them in a
meeting, And they have direct
communication with the White
louse.
The unified supply organization
is paying off. Already the replace
ment of materials given to South
Korea from Japan is under way
from Guam. And equipment in
Japan was sent out as from a
single pool.
Even the newspaper reader is
getting immediate direct benefits
from unification. The day the
news broke, Johnson’s press chief,
Lee Hargus, began holding two
unified press briefings a day for
reporters, Representatives from
each service fit their part of the
story into the whole picture. News
out of the Pentagon on the fight
ing is just about as fast as it is
from the front, and more complete.
This is unprecedented in war re
porting,
Organization experts who are
watching the unification machin
ery carefully in this crisis admit
that some bugs will be found in it.
Nevertheless close observers be
lieve it is working better than
anything America has ever had
before.
ATLANTA REPORTS
LESS ROBBERY
ATLANTA, Ga. — In a recent
survey conducted by The Street
and Traffic Safety Lighting Bu
reau, Police Chief H. T. Jenkins

GREETINGS! FROM THE
POLICE
SANTA ANA, Calif— (AP) —
Instead of citations, out-of-state
traffic violators in this city get
greeting cards. Police Chief B. A.
Hershey had some orange cards
printed up. On the ba:k is a street
map which lists points of interest.
On the front is a legend pointing
out that *perhaps unknowingly”
the motorist has broken the law.
Smoked pork and other cured
meats can be protected from in
sects with a strong muslin or paper
bag.
Surface mold will not affect the
wholesomeness of th: meat, even
if it does add a moldy flavor.
Community and county fairs,
spring rallies, achievement days.
farm forums, and camps are good
places for hobby shows.
