Arl Volkerts That little item we carried the other day about a team of horses running away with a load of hay brought back memories, both fond and terrifying, of the last team we had on the ranch the greatest pair of runaways I ever saw. Full brothers they were, out of our white mare Mae and a strapping Gobbi stud. The eldest was named Blaze and the youngest Prince.

Blaze almost died when a wee colt, and I can still remember my dad nursing the eolt back to life through a cold winter. They were splendid when young but, as all iron-greys do, turned white as they grew older. My dad, who was a master teamster, broke those eolts early and made them one ef the finest teams in the county. TVE SEES them pull tremendous loads bellies low to the ground, eyes bulging, hooves rising and falling together in short, ligging steps. Or I've seen them start quickly with a little jump to jerk free a stump or truck stuck in the mud.

But they were at their best pulling a plow all day with never a let-up only a-glad whinny when they were headed for the barn. And when my dad hauled apples for George Kennedy and Jack Wiley, he had Prince and Blaze trained to pull a loaded wage; between the rows without a hand to guide them, stopping and starting at his spoken command. George Kennedy always admired those greys and made a standing offer of $500 for them. But one day we were hauling cur own apples when the dogs started a big red sow and chased her under the team's bellies. The squealing pig frightened them and they bolted.

It was their first runaway. A few days later they were hitched to a harrow near the barn when our Nig decided to take on the neighbor's big mastiff. During the fight, the dogs rolled under Prince and Blaze and they were off again. FROM THAT day on the team grew progressively worse. After my dad died and I was running the ranch, they broke harness and equipment in several Blaze and Prince.

The 2 Runaways One I particularly remember. I was mowing hay with Prince and a neighbor's horse. (We were splitting the team whenever possible, hoping the other horse would restrain, them.) When the field was almost finished, I stepped off the mower to oil the gears. When I stepped down, a frightened jackrabbit streaked out of the narrow strip of standing grain and twisted through the horses hooves. Away went the team, the mower (borrowed) bouncing behind them shedding parts at every jump.

They finally snapped the pole off on the gatepost and romped home. I think one of the sickle guards is still imbedded in the post. Blaze was being used by our neighbor to cultivate corn and he ran away with the cultivator a few days later. About this time we began to look at the new tractors on the market. What really resulted in the team's sale occurred one moonlit night.

I was awakened by the thunder of hooves then silence and more thunder. Curious, I got up to look out of my second-story window. It may have been that Prince and Blaze were playing, as horses will do on moonlit nights. But to me it looked like they were standing shoulder to shoulder then suddenly bolting to the far end of the pasture. Obviously practicing runaway starts! Third Trial Likely For Slaying Suspect JACKSON.

June 19 (UP) Prosecution attorneys say they "definitely" plan to try 19-year-old Eugene Monroe for a third time on charges that he murdered a housekeeper at the Preston School of Industry last Feb. 23. Monroe's second trial ended in a deadlock when the jury reported it was unable to reach a decision and was dismissed by Superior Judge Ralph McGee. At the time, the jurors stood 11 to 1 for conviction. The first trial last April also ended in a hung jury.

Beiqe, White, Maize, Red, Navy, Pink, Green and Black in sizes 10 to 18. is so proud of his success with a spaghetti recipe presented to him by Enzio Pinza, that he has dubbed the dish "One Enchanted Evening." IDOL CHATTER: Didjuh know that Lex Barker, the screen's new Tarzan, is a near champion skier? Add Hollywood eccentrics: Cesar Romero, never married, never divorced. Before deciding that there's nothing in a name, ask yourself how Brian Donlevy's career as a screen villain would have been affected had he retained his middle monicker, "Waldo." Nominated for an award as Hollywood's wittiest feminine conversationalist: Jane Greer.

Odd, isn't it, that such a confirmed worrier as Eddie Bracken should be a professional comic? Peas-in-a-pod: Ann Sothern, in a brunette wig, and Claudette Colbert. In view of his brilliant record as an off-screen romantic, would it be too far-fetched to refer to Peter Lawford as a SMALL TALK: I like a conversation overheard in the Brown Derby the other noon. Two girls-about-town, both in their late twenties, were appraising Mar-lene Dietrich, who sat a few tables away. Said one: "To look like that at HER age, I'd give a mint." Said the other: "Darling, let's be honest to look like that at OUR age, we'd give a mint!" Odd is the word for some of the items encountered in movie budgets. For instance: A pair of shoes purchased by 20th Century-Fox for the use of Alexander Knox in "I'd Climb the Highest Mountain" cost $303.

The shoe worn on his left foot is an ordinary work shoe, purchasable in any chain store at about six bucks a pair. The one on his right foot is a special creation, designed to give the illusion that he is club-footed. A bootmaker turned that one out by hand, and had to make six shoes before achieving one that Knox could wear with any degree of comfort. Speaking of high finance, I'm reminded of Judy Canova's account of a recent transaction in her family. Seems that her small daughter Tweenie lost a tooth one night last week and insisted on putting it under her pillow so the Good Fairy could replace it with the traditional quarter.

HOLLYWOOD The sudden rise of a whole new galaxy of young stars is more than a I think. True, the movie-makers have always been interested in recruiting new personalities, but the haste with which they are now advancing beginners to top roles indicates that there is considerable long-range planning going on. And, unless I miss my guess, the nature of that long-range planning is very apt to prove distressing to many of today's long established stars. Like everything else in the movie industry, it's probably a question of dollars and cents. About eight years ago, star salaries began to skyrocket.

Today, they've reached ridiculous levels, with bona fide "stars" demanding from $150,000 to $250,000 a role, and lesser lights (most of whom have no box office following worth speaking about) asking $75,000 or more when they condescend to play a part. Despite all the publicity about the "bad times" which have overtaken the film industry, these established players have fought tooth-and-nail against accepting pay cuts. The newcomers, being newcomers, are willing to work for a reasonable wage. They're also willing to play the roles assigned them. In those two facts, it seems to me, lie the real reason for the overnight rise of the many "Cin-derellas" who are now walking off with the plum roles of the season.

The oldtimers are making the mistake of pricing themselves right out of the market. THE HOLLYWOOD PARADE: Patricia Rios, dynamic lady. Miss Rios, currently playing a top rola in "Mexican Silver," is regarded with considerable awe by the male members of the troupe since she gave them a demonstration of what a 106-pound gal can do to heavyweight "wolves" with the aid of judo. Loretta Young, trouble-fore-staller. Miss Young, having been in Hollywood long enough to chart its marital pitfalls, insisted, before working in a picture produced by her husband, on an iron-clad agreement, prohibiting any discussion of professional problems after working hours.
