DAILY CROSS- WORD PUZZLE
The breezes still have a bite to them, but society and the AL screen turn to thoughts of Spring styles as the sun shines. the left Mr. Langdon W. Post, youthful society matron, is shown walking up Fith Avenue in the last word in Spring confections. Fay Wray, lovely star of the movies, gives New York ladies an eyeful of style-and New York men an eyeful of charm.
The political aspects of the 1936 presidential exmpaign were complicated by an announcement stating that Dr. Francis. E. Town- send, author of the $200-a-mouth cid-age pension plan, had come out for Senator William E. Borah for the Republican presidential nomination Townsend later denied the announcement, but ad- mitted that he had changed his registration from Democratic to Republican.
This cross-word puzzle has been made by an expert but our readers are warned to look out for occasional phonetic spelling, such as harbor, plow, and altho.
