DEAN STUDIOS, Dept. 284, 211 7th St., Des Moines, Iowa. fFASCINATING entertainment^ black. From the cellar came a spooky cry; from the attic a sinister howl. Another family might have fainted, but the twins have conditioned the Johnsons to drama and the unexpected. "It must be one of their games," said Mrs. Johnson placidly. And that's just what it was. Laraine, Lamar and their friends had resurrected one of their childhood favorites — "Sardines." First they had blacked out the house. Then one member of the clan had dashed away to hide. The rest of the group were hot on the trail, yelling and screaming through the dark. As, one by one, they discovered the hiding place — in this instance a linen closet — they hid there, too, until the last lone wanderer found them all together, packed tight as sardines on top of the Johnsons' clean sheets and towels. Mrs. Johnson is a philosopher about things like laundry and sudden guests, dancing in the living room and the interminable blare of the radio. She thinks it's all very jolly. ANYBODY would think these assorted activities would keep even Laraine panting, but there is more to the story. Laraine writes poetry. How or when is a mystery we shan't try to solve. We can only report that she does, and that the poetry is quite good at that. She has had a number of pieces accepted by literary magazines, and on the work table in her large, sunny bedroom you can always find a couple of lyrics simmering gently, waiting for revision and a last fond polishing. Laraine writes musical comedies, too, and several of these have been produced by the Wilshire Playhouse group. She's pretty glib about her favorite authors, Ogden Nash, Jules Verne, Knut Hamsen, so we wouldn't be surprised if she even races through a book now and then. She admits, however, that she never gets a chance to shop. She loves clothes, but somehow can't find time to collect them. If she sees a pretty dress in a window, she'll dash in and buy it. Later, of course, she discovers that she hasn't a hat, coat or pair of shoes to wear with it. By the time she has assembled the right accessories, the dress looks like a relic of yesteryear. Consequently, she sticks mostly to slacks and shorts, spruces up only for big evenings. So now you see how it is. When you have so many interests, so many things to do, when you have come so far in nineteen short years, when you plan to go so much farther in the years just ahead, you can't mark time. You can't stall. You can't proceed in low gear. No, sir! You hit the pike at eighty plus. You burn up the road, but you get there safe and sound with no accidents, and with even the law rooting for you. You do if you are Laraine Day, the cyclone on sixteen cylinders!
