TURNABOUT Crane on Wesson: WAS THIS THE FACE? An Appreciation of Helen V. Wesson WHEN HELEN AND I came sheepishly out of the Red Mill in Steeplechase Park, Coney Island, everybody wanted to know what the terrific bang had been. You see, it was this way... Even then, at the 1942 New York convention of the National Amateur Press Association, Sheldon Wesson was casting proprietary eyes at Helen. With the laudable purpose of driving Sheldon completely nuts from jealousy, I kidnapped Helen and lured her into the Red Mill. The Red Mill! You know the kind of place.. two-seater boats that go butting their way through a covered millrace, mostly dark but lighted occasionally, so you can see what you're grabbing. What does a feelthy old man of long standing do in a case like that? If you try something, the girl may be insulted. If you try nothing, she'll probably be even more insulted. So I reached out a tentative arm.. The bang was Helen hitting the other side of the boat, getting away from me. Helen once coedited with a fellow named Erich Something-orother. Then she coedited with Sheldon Wesson, married (continued next page; no jumps if possible) Wesson on Crane: Meet THE BRAIN: L. Burton Crane (Unappreciated) BURTON CRANE is a blue-eyed Mephistopheles who wears his hair departed in the middle and carries a quiver of arrows -- some of them are Cupid's own and some are just plain barbs. (photo of couple - caption: THINGS ARE NOT WHAT THEY SEEM...!!) Physically, he comes between me and my husband (in terms of height, I mean) which makes him quite a hunk of man. His ears are pointed in the best Warth manner, and his eyebrows curl upwards.
