a Gei
Sight, but our probing about official files failed to support the
idea and official sources called it f- J
a myth.
We inyestleated the story bp-
cause it had new birth in connec-
tion with the recent disaster to
submarine Squalus, comnian
by Lieutenant Commander Oil
Negrin. 1
Previous experience indicates
that if the board of inquiry finds
him at fault he will have a hard
time getting along in the Navy
hereafter. But if he is found not at
fault he probably will do better
than average, for accounts avail-
able so far indicate he handled the
surviving members of the crtw in
good Navy tradition-
There aren't many recent exam-
ples to work with. Besides the'
Squalus, four U. S. submarines
have sunk in recent years. On
three of these the commanders
died, the F-4 at Honolulu, and the
S-51 and S-4 near Portsmouth.

THE lieutenant commander of
the S-5, which was rammed by
a steamer off the Delaware Capes,
is now a Captain on duty in the
Navy Department here and is a
good bet for promotion to Rear
Admiral.
With the craft down at one end,
he assembled the crew in the other
and directed that a hole be bored
through the hull. His own shirt
was hoisted on a stick through the
hole and waved until it attracted a
passing oil tanker. The tanker cut
' a bigger hole in the hull and the
men were brought safely out.
Cook was commended and has
since been twice promoted.
On the other nand, the com-
mander of the cruiser Omaha
which went aground among the
Florida Keys some time ago was
relieved of his command.
But disaster didn't follow com-
manders of ships lost during the
World War. We traced three of
them.
ran into a mine laid
an submarine off Fire
>rk. He directed the
removal of the men then jumped
into the water as the cruiser rolled
over and -ank. Later he Was pro-
moted to rear admiral and now is
in retirement, living at the Army
and Navy Club in Washington.

Other Examples
ANOTHtSR sample is David W.
** Bagley, commander of the De*
stroyer Jacob Jones sunk by a
German submarine December 8,
1917, off the coast of Ireland. For
his "efficiency, good judgment and
courage" in the emergency he was
commended by Admiral Sims, was
steadily promoted and now is a
Rear Admiral in command of the
Mare Island Navy Yard in San
Francisco bay.
Walter N. Vernou was in com-
mand of a destroyer patrolling of
Ireland during the war when he
sighted a torpedo headed for his
ship. He put his ship about and
had almost escaped v' -n the tor-
pedo leaped out of the water as if
to take a look around, veered off
on a new ancle and hit the de-
stroyer far aft, taking off 35 feet
of the rear of the ship.
A brave gunner's mate, Osmond
K, Ingram, seeing the approach-
ing torpedo, raced to the rear to
dump off the depth charges so they
would not be exploded by the tor-
pedo. He was blown to atoms by
the blast. The destroyer was kept
afloat by closing her bulkheads
and she was towed to port next
day.
Vernou was promoted steadily
thereafter and now is rear ad-
miral in command of the 15th Na-
val District, the Canal Zone.
Ingram is commemorated by be-
ing the only enlisted man for
whom a destroyer was named.
AND SOUNDS
By BOBBIN COONS
TTOLLYWOOD - Another "old
11 lady" of the screen turned 2i
.the other day, and it was quite a
shock to think of it
Patricia E11S, no other. Why,
that one's been around since 'way
back when, you'll say. And you'll
be right. Seven years and 4d pic-
tures worth—but she's Just turned
Being 21, she says, Is no different
from being 20 or 10 or 17. At least
she hssn't found any difference
yet And no wonder, because she's
been in Hollywood and of Holly-
wood since she w#s 14 years oJ£.

ing ladies, and playing So manj
career doctors prescribe the "New
York cure,"
Pat took it,—and she hopes It
"took."
"At least I found out things
about myself, encouraging things."
she says. "I found a lot of people
knew who I was. In Hollywood
you can get in a rut and start feel-
ing TOO unimportant for your
own good. I found I could 'take'
it—in a night club and on the road,
touring—and the experience was
good for me." • '

PAT, a big girl as movie heroines
go, is five feet seven inches talL
She has big blue eyes in an al-
most heart-shaped face, and she's
a pretty thing. A few years ago,
when she was playing sappy in-
genues and wearing sophisticated,
more severely tailored clothes,
she looked older than she does
now. (At 21 a movie gal can afford
to look young.)
Her New York and "road" sue-
when
cess, to our surprise, was as a
singer. When she'd finished five

"It was good for me, but I had
to take it almost every show," she
says. "The jitterbugs would come
early and stay late, through three
or four shows. They'd know what
1 was going to do—and they'd do
it with me- They couldn't wait for
the swing to start again. Ail I
could do was ignore thein and try
to go ahead. It was good exercise
for poise." r

CHE made a picture back east,
too. "Back Door to Heaven,"
and a good one. Here she's starting
as a gangster's wife in "Criminal
at Large"—opposite Jack Holt and
"not just a sappy ingenue but a
good character part she'll tell
you....
Patricia Ellis (once Patricia
Gene O'Brien) spent a goodly part
of her little girlhood having chil-
dren's diseases, three mastoid op-
erations, and three protracted ill-
nesses. She went into a repertory
company at 13, signed a movie con-
tract at 14. Three years ago she
finished the "children's diseases"
by breaking out with measles.
There ought to be a sob line here
about her childhood's being fin-
ished before it began. But Pat
doesn't seem to mind. Being 21, she
says, is no different from being 20
or 19 or 17.
MAN ABOUT MANHATTAN

By GEORGE TUCKER
YORK — Everytime the
Normandie or the Queen Mary
puts Into port people go down and
lave their picture* taken against
them. There is always a crowd of
photographers with their buckets
of developer hanging from tripods
at the foot of the streets that lead
to the piers.
But the pictures aren't very
good. You get only a blurred back-
ground. and nothing of the grace-
ful lines of an ocean palace. How-
ever. if you wander into any of the
small dime studios in 14th street
you can have an excellent picture
of yourself tak^n — against the
Queen Mary or the Normandie.
Theae are but crud. imitations
painted on a canvas backdrop, yet
in picture form they are far more
realistic and lifelike than the orig-
inals.

tan epicures.
He has two restaurants now,
fancy, impressive ones, in place of
the watertront spot the original
Billy opened. The original Billy,
bluff, hearty, was the checkered-
apron type, opening his oysters
with huge oystar knives for his
guests. He prospered and became
almost legendary in Manhattan
histonr.
And now. Young Billy has be-
come as important a his father.
Although ha has sold millions and
million* or oyster* he never eats
them. Nor has o pearl ever been
found in one of his restaurant*.
The reason he never eats oysters,
he says, is not because he di-slikes
them. It is because he never thinks
to order them.
They tell a story of his father !
who was going about his business !
one night «rhen a -iranger walked
in and ordered a lobster. He had
never before eaten lobster. When
the dish was placed before him the.
young man glanced at the red.
shelled creature and said. "What
do I do."
'Til'show you," announced
Billy. Wherefore he Dulled the
plate before him and proceeded
to eat the lobster. Then, turning to
the astonished guest "You may
Ky for the lobster, bu there will
no charge for the lesson." He
and Billy became warm friends
and he always dined with Billy
when In New York.
