THE OLA-S5 BARRAOKS by Clarissa Falrchild Cushmiin: Mc- Clelland and ':lti-wart: t3.25.

This book is very much a story of today. It. depicts the problems of a war veteran and his pretty wife who are liv.ng in ti college housing development and want a home of their oim. They haie a typical family. '1: modern as to- morrow. and ii ant to get away from the petty intrigues and gos- sip of their quarters The story problem is another veteran with shattered nerves who has a mild crush on the wife of his friend. It is told with a natural simple style as impressive as a letter frcim an acquaintance. There is mention of what each wife hung on the com- mon clotheslinec. This one 24 dia- pers and that one only 12. There is the excursion to get earth for planting bulbs. The usual dog and kitten are considered. The sound truck does its stuff up and down the lanes. But don't think this story is a mere account of he.ppenlng:. There is a good plot and plenty of

suspense, with love and loyalty fitting in. I O 0 HIGH VALLEY by Ciiarmian
