' Women Secret Agents : Played Heroic Roles , Aug. 26.--8torés of hero- ! by women secret agents tha make Mata Hari's exploits tame by comparison are coming to light as the Allied governments disclose new pages of the war's secret history. Some of these stories have a tragic ending, like that of beautiful 24-year-old Violet Stzabo, believed by the British government to have been killed by the Sesiapo for her work in the French underground. Others--like that of Odette San- som--are reaching a conclusion re- served until now for movie script writers: Petite, brown-eyed Mrs. Sansom plans to marry the British officer whose life she protected through- out two years in the hands of Nazi torturers who seared her back with irons and led out her toenails in a vain effort to make her talk. "I hope to marry Mrs. Sansom," said tall Capt, Peter Churchill, 37, after he was identified as the com- manding officer she refused to be- tray. Divorce procedings are pend- ing against French-born Mrs, San- som"s husband, also an Englishman. Mrs, Sansom, who received 'the 5 t | which they received orders, George Cross last week for heroism, posed as Capt. Churchills wife when the Gestapo captured both of them in France, and wag successful in persuading her inquisitors that his sole purpose in coming to France was to visit her. Actually Capt.

Buckmaster, who directed sabotage frcm England, "What I did was the obvious thing to do," Mrs. Sansom observed, "He (Churchill) was a very impor- tant person and at all costs I had to he.p him, I've never been very strong or very brave--I just did what I felt I had to do." Col, Buckmaster disclosed that Mrs, Sansom and Mrs. Stzabo were among 38 women smuggled into France to keep the resistance movement in touch -with British forces, Allied chiefs have said activities shortened the war by six months, Women from all walks of life, they caried tiny wireless sets with From German-occupied France, they sent reporis at risk of discovery, torture and probable death, Twelve of the women never re- turned. Mrs, Sansom was turned over to the United States forces when they neared the Oder, "She induced the German com- mandant to drive her toward the Americans," Col. Buckmaster re lated, * When the troops found her she had him covered with a revol- ver," HOUSEHOLD HINT As you put your clothes through the wringer of your washing ma- chine, keep your hands at least a foot away' from the roller at all times.

An old screen frame can be enameled citron yellow and made to look very decorative with turquoise gauze, gathered very full, used as screen- ing. A white lamp can be given a new glamer with a ruffly gauze shade ornamented with iridescent butterflies. A canopy bed can be draped, in mosquito net fashion, with yards of varicolored gauzes cascading over a white bedspread, Hollywood Caterer Bakes 100,000 Pies Regina, Aug. 26.--(CP)--To some people food means just one thihg-- unwelcome pounds, But there are others who find it a fascinating subject, as does Elma Hunt, former- ly of Saskatchewan, now of Holly- wood, Miss Hunt, a dignified, graceful woman with twinkling blue eyes, {is a caterer and her clientele are the best =" known names In the world. She can whip up a party for Clark Gable or Greer Garson in about as much time as it would take the average housewife to pre- pare a good Sunday dinner, Born at Indian Head, Sask, the daughter of the late Dr. and Mrs, C. W. Hunt, she says she has never been out of a baking bowl since she was seven years old, "My mother was a marvellous cook and I guess I just followed in her footsteps." After her early schooling she went to Buffalo, N.Y. where she went into a delicatessen, cafeteria and bakery business. In 10385, she de- cided to go to California, and she liked it so well she stayed. During the war she trained men | and women at Mather Field, S8acra- mento, in catering, Later, she act ed as purchasing agent for a large hotel in the mountains where she bought "everything frcen nails to liquor," She started catering in Holly- wood after the. war and soon was She soned foods but in general their parties are informal, Lunch is buffet style, and the guests wear slacks, At one time, Miss Hunt arranged food displays for magazine pic- tures and also wrote a newspaper column under the name of "Patsy Pantry" but her catering and cook books now keep her fully occupied, I Bhe is in the process of selecting 2, recipes from her collection of 6, to put into 15 small but prac- tical cook-books, "I'm trying to make the books as simple and easy as possible," she says, "Just because I've baked 100,~ 000 ples in my day doesn't mean | everyone else has."

Gladys--""1 feel the name has caused me a sense of frustration." Some surnames are unpopular, too. One member of the vast Jones family told M.ONP.: "It started me off with an inferiority com- plex."
