2 New Pantheon Books
From Pantheon Books (22 E.
51st, N.Y. 22) come two new, very
appealing books for young read-
ers.
There is lots of adventure of
the type that will hold the young
reader glued to "Devil-in-the-Fog"
by Leon Garfield, until he has
learned all the details of a young
boy's experiences. Family squab-
bles, intrigues, actions that pro-
vide thrills are incorporated in
this tale with a setting in the 18th
Century England.
Antony Maitland illustrated this
splendid narrative.
Another fine Pantheon book is
about a 12-year-old girl. It is "Kal-
lie's Corner" by Alice Low, with
drawings by David Stone Martin.
It is filled with normal experi-
ences, but is marked by adven-
turous occurrences that glamorize
the daily events and make this
tale noteworthy and most attrac-
tive for teen-agers.
In the Moslem lands of North
Africa and Asia, in Eastern
Europe and the Middle East,
hundreds of thousands of needy
Jews who cannot yet migrate to
Israel depend on the United
Jewish Appeal for food, clothing
and medicine for themselves and
their children—like this mother
in a Moroccan baby clinic. The
Joint Distribution Committee
carries out these welfare and
rehabilitation programs with
funds raised in UJA campaigns
such as the 1966 drive for a
national goal of 573,420,000.

Try and Stop Me
By BENNETT CERF
T
HEN SAM LEVENSON was a boy, he was one of eight
kids in a lower East Side family dominated by a
mother who was determined they all would grow up to "be
somebody." She lived to
see her dreams come true.
Mama Levenson was a
fine cook, but she didn't
believe in letting any
food go to waste. She at-
tached such credence to
the "stale bread is good
for you" theory that she
even learned to bake day-
old bread. At night she
put a lighted candle in
an old skull the medical-
student-son had brought
horse, to scare off bur-
glars. It worked, too. The
one burglar who got in
was so terrified he forgot his tools. Sam gave them to the
medically inclined brother who used them on his first pa-
tients.
You'll learn lots of other pleasing things about Sam Lev-
enson from his book, "Everything But Money."
