New York Day By CHARLES B. DRISCOIX Diary: One of the most Interesting social gatherings of the season was at Amy Vanderbll's apartment on Madison a few evenings ago There was a large and distinguished company and the guest of honor was one of the most un-Madison-Ave. guests I've seen in years He was Woody Guthrie of Oklahoma and the wide road, hair uncombed, shirt unfastened at the top, necktieless, wearing a clean pair of what he calls overalls Woody isn't Phi Beta Kappa, but he a lot that they don't teach in schools, and he makes up songs out of his head and sings them while he plays a big guitar. Woody wasn't there as a professional entertainer, thougn I've no doubt he'll be quite the in the Manhattan night spots if he stays around town long enough to let the agents get hold of him. The party was in honor of Woody's new book, "Bound for Glory," which Dutton has Just brought out.

As the evening wore on everybody expected Woody to sing and play, and so he did. He never took a singing lesson, a music lesson or a grammar lesson, but he's aot I something, and he knows how to Rive lt out. Truth to tell, I didn't care for Woody's book when I first opened it and read lines and paragraphs here and there in it.

Well, thought, if a fellow can't WTite, why does bother about writing? I took up the book again the day after the party at which I met th singing author. It became a fascinating story of a person who can't express himself in any arty way, but who Is, nevertheless, an artist.

He is a natural artist. I think hi playing and singing are much better than his writing, but the book becomes a powerful piece of humane letters when you are patient with it. Woody can't hope to make a personal appearance in every town or sing a hobo song for each prospective reader. If he could that book would break some records. When Woody learned that I came from his part of the world, only a few miles from the Oklahoma line, he fell naturally in( conversation about the Southwest, the wheat fields and oil lands, and we found that we had much in common.

He is very thin, and the wiry hair that stands almost straight up from a long, thin, delicate-looking skull, adds something the appearance of other-worldinesa that might easily become grotesque. The face is set in lines of sadness and hardship. Woody doesn't laugh much, I take it. The Red Cross unit of the East Midwood Jewish Center, 1625 Ocean makes surgical dressings Thursday afternoon.

Then it will stretch up its head so lis nose is above water, and will rest in that position. Two or three hours may be spent by the buffalo almost completely under water. In that way it keeps cool on hot days, and also guards itself againsl flies and other insects.

Another protection against in- ects is mud. The buffalo likes to wanow in mua unui its body is coated all over. Getting up from the mud at length, it walks about until the mud dries and hardens. Then, for some time, the caked mud will guard it from the stings and bites of insects. (For NATURE Section of your scrapbook.) Tomorrow More About Water Buffaloes.

I also saw that moving picture, a very exciting one which appeared several years ago.

There was one part in which a water buffalo did strike down a tiger. Shaking its long-homed head at great speed, it hit the tiger and won the fight. That fight was "staged" for the sake of the moving picture, but similar fights have taken place in the wilds of India and Burma. Sometimes the tigers have won, sometimes the water buffaloes. Public fights between these beasts have been held in India, and lt is hard to tell in advance whether tiger or buffalo will win.

In a fair fight the "honors" are about even, but out in the Jungle the tiger often has the advantage of surprise. It may spring upon the buffalo from a height, and in that case is likely to win by getting in the first blow. LETTER OU 1. Barley Letter Out and a good one is prized by a farmer. 2.
