Increased living costs have
changed our mode of entertaining
considerably, and we’re discovering
that it’s much more enjoyable to
have friends visit our home than
to take them out for dinner. Our ,
guests actually seem to have a
better time and
we do too!
Because of ex- I
tra entertain
ing, I’ve been
especially eager
to get extra!
serving pieces
in my Interna
tional Sterling
and also in my
1847 Rogers'
Bros, silver
plate. So you
can imagine
how thrilled I
was. when my
husband pre
sented me with 11
.a wonderful eight-piece steak set
for my birthday and my two sons i
gave me a two-piece roast set to
match. They’re really beautiful
sterling pieces and so convenient
[for entertaining that I'm already!
hinting for additional serving
pieces for Mothers Day!
, A friend of mine, Jane, has just
completed a sterling tea service—
something else I’ve always dreamed
of owning. Jane bought one piece
at a time and completed the set in
just a few months. I’m planning to
| do the same thing—and also to
j complete my silverplate serving
pieces the same way. I’ve just
bought a two-piece salad serving
set that’s simply wonderful for
informal company suppers. And
, there are dozens more that I want,
i These extra pieces make wonderful
gifts for just every occasion—I
know that every woman loves to
receive silver. And . . . with more
tand more of us entertaining at
home, it’s almost a necessity to
have the right serving pieces.
Beautiful silver adds so much to
any table setting, doesn’t it? And
■ what delightful Mother’s- Day gift^
too! I
Red Subs, Now 300 Strong,
Worry U.S. Navy Officers
By Stanley James
WASHINGTON — Top Navy
officers say the Russians have a
submarine fleet which is six times
larger than the German submar
ine fleet at the beginning of
World War II. The Russian subs
are said to be as modern and
efficient as the latest-type Nazi
snorkels at the end of the war.
This would give the Reds a sub
fleet of about 300 or 400 under
seas raiders, since the German
navy had only about 50 or 60 subs
in 1939. Adm. William M. Fech
teler, chief of naval operations,
recently told a group of National
Geographical Society members
that the Red sub fleet could seri
ously challenge U.S. supremacy
in case of war.
Americans don’t have to look
back far to remember when some
20 or 30 German U-boats caused
a carnage off the southeastern
coast in 1942 and 1943. The Ger
mans were sinking oil tankers at
a rapid pace and on some days as
many as six or eight ships went
down.
What the Russians could do
with six times as many subs can
be imagined.

On Korean Ground Front
SEOUL, Korea, </P)—U.S. Ma
rines beat off five pre-dawn at
tacks on the rugged eastern front
in Korea Friday.
None of the attacks was in
force, but they were the largest
reported along the 155-mile front.
Stormy skies put the damper
on aerial activity Friday after
*
highly successful raids on Red
supply facilities Thursday.
The Eighth Army identified
three U.N. divisions now in the
battle line. The Third and British
Commonwealth Divisions are on
the western front, facing the Chi
ntese. The Marines are on the
mountainous eastern front. The
announcement made no mention
of the 40th- and 45th National
Guard divisions which recently
were shifted into the front lines
from Japan. It did not say whe
ther any other divisions are in
action.
Milktruck Foils Convicts’
Tunnel Getaway Plot
Walla Walla, Wash., (/?)—With
the milkman came spoiled visions
of freedom for some frustrated
state penitentiary inmates.
The as yet unidentified felons
were only 30 feet from freedom
Tuesday after 18 months of labor
iously digging a 100-foot long tun
nel when the prison milk truck
sank through their escape hatch
—surprising the driver, prison of
ficials and the would-be escapees.
Ironically, the tunnel was dis
covered two weeks after-Warden
John Cranor had given the in
mates a big banquet for not dig
ging any tunnels in 1951.
Imagination is something that
sits up with a woman when her
husband comes home late.
