only a drill.: One sleepy-eyed lass(
stumbled into the bathroom, care- b

Book On Thor
A university English professor *r
is the autdhor of a new book on
Thomas Wolfe dealing with the
European influences on the life
and works of this major Ameiri
can novelist. hr
Entitled "Thomas Wolfe et t
U'Europe (Thomas Wolfe and Eu- a
respe)," the book is written in
French and was published in Paris, h
France.
The author is Dr. George t
Reeves, a specialist in compa-ative c
literature who earned his doctomal s
degree ferom the University of I
Paris. 11
Thomas Wolfe made seven visits b
to Europe before he died at the t
age of 37. RIe began his first b
novel "Look Homleward, Angel" I
in England, wrote large sections
of "Of Time and the River" in t:
France, and worked on his laber il
novels, "The Web and the Rock" t:
and "You Can't Go Home Again," p
published after 'his death, during t1
visits to England and Germany. ia
"The most important thing c
Wolfe obtained from his European A
ravels was a mieans of seeing t
America in a new perspective," 1
Dr. Reeves says. "Wolfe used Eu- a

SUMER IS ICUMEN IN
Sumer is icumien in;
Lhude sing cuccu!
Thus, as every schoolboy knows, begins T. S. Eliot's immortal
Hiawatha. And no wonder "The Boy Orator of ':he Platte" (as
T. S. Eliot is commonly called> was moved to pen such light
hearted lines! For summer (or the "vernal equinox" as it is
frequently referred to) is the happiest season of the year, mild
and balmy and contented-making.
Which brings us, of course, to Philip Morris Cigarettes. They,
too, are mild and balmy and contented-making. But that is not
all. They are also genial, placid, and amiable. But that is still not
all. They are, moreover, smooth, pacific, and lenient. But hold!
There is more. They are, in addition, tranquillizing, clement, and
dulcet.
Indeed the list could go on and on, until every adjective is
