In a little while we heard feminine screams and a few mild . Ann came out to announce that Elizabeth’s opera-length hose had sprung a run. Opera hose darned near to the waist and it is no easy trick to get them ‘and get the seams straight. hook onto a very skimpy pair of panties, Ann told me as if she was telling me something new, which she certainly was. Changing meant a half-hour delay. “Let's cover up the rux somehow,” sug- gested Eddie. So Elizabeth emerged in her | long black hose and a black velvet | bodice and skirt that didn't make | much of a dent in MUM’s black | velvet supply. There was a black | net something hanging from the | waist. She stepped in front of the camera and struck a tentative | pose. June checked the hair and | Elsie arranged the net so it cov-| ered the run. Emil turned on the lights and Virgil looked through his ground glass. “Here we go, honey,” said Vir- gil. Elizabeth smiled and Virgil pressed his camera bulb. “Very, nice, honey,” he said. ‘Now turn your head.” Another shot. ‘Very, very nice, honey. Now, one more, head up.” | Eddie said, “In this one, turn your hips a little to the right. That’s it,” and Virgil made an-| other. “Good girl, Liz.” In three | hours 98 different poses were taken. | In making glamor shots, which will be magazine covefs months hence, Eddie explained that “‘you shoot for line. You make the legs | look as good as you can and the hips as narrow as_ possible. The | bust line is important and must| be lighted properly. The hands must be graceful.” Elizabeth, it seemed to me, met all requirements—naturally. CHICAGO — Coroner Walter | E. McCarron is seeking lie detec- tor tests for all principals in the} mys death of Montgomery Watd Thorne, heir to a mail order McCarron said yesterday: “Th has been a lot of con-, testimony in this case.

Thomas Mulvey, who is: helping direct the investigation, - will consult the Chicago ition counsel about police ity in the matter. He said he does not believe police could ask for such tests unless there are arrests. ‘The issue of lie tests arose after Charles Magistro, a classmate of Thorne at Fordham University, was asked if he would take such @ test. Magistro, who testified at @ coroner’s inquest that he saw Thorne smoke a marijuana ciga- said he~will take a test if witnesses will, and if his consent. , 20, died June 19, nine days after he rewrote his will to leave three fourths of his estate to his sweetheart, Maureen Ragen, 18, and her mother, Aleen. His own + Marion, who was sole ben- under the original will, ‘was bequeathed a one eighth share. The inquest will be resumed Monday. In remaking its map of Illinois Tecently, the U. S.

Foreign Terrier Is Lost In A Strange Land DETROIT ( — A little foreign dog is' lost somewhere in Detroit. His name is spelled Cheero, but | ne won’t answer unless you pro-| nounce it Chairr-o. His owners, -who are almost as! much lost without him, say he’s al white fox terrier with a brown face and a black ring on his tail. But more than a dog, he’s their com- panion who brightened their three years as displaced persons. That’s why Jovan Pantelinac, 36, and his wife Vera, 35, began sav- ing money when they came to De- troit three months ago. They re- membered their little friend left behind in displaced persons camp at Trieste. They saved $100 and paid the dog’s passage to Detroit. He ar- rived all right but escaped from his cage at the airport. The Pantelinacs speak little Eng- lish, but a neighbor woman is heading search efforts for them. As their new neighbor explained: “When you haven’t got much, a dog is a lot.” | | ‘Turkeys Stampede} CHEHALIS, Wash. (P—A Chehal- is farmer reported yesterday that | |a low-flying jet plane frightened his turkeys into a stampede that killed 529 birds and injured 205. Ted Goebel said the birds were} being transferred from one field |to another when the jet came over. |In a panic, they plunged into a nearby creek and piled up. Some drowned and others smothered. Goebel estimated his loss at | $2,500. Godthaab, the capital of Green- land, has a population of 1,500. | Ky. films about love—and the Soviet movie industry should try to satis- fy these “natural wants and de- | sires.” While they’re about it, Soviet | movie makers shpuld also throw in like films’ about space ships and interplanetary adventure. These are demands made by M. Andreev, chief of the Students De- Partment on the Central Commit- tee of Komsomol, the Soviet Com- | muvnist Youth League. Tarzan is ‘unideological” by Communist standards, says An- dreev, but what’s the harm in giv- ing the kids a little fun. Tarzan as played by Johnny Weismuller was introduced to Soviet moviegoers in old films the Russians ‘captured in Germany. They drew big crowds in Moscow and other major cities and some are still playing in the remote regions of Central Asia, where Western visitors to ancient cities sometimes finds kids doing the Tarzan yell. Andreev, writing in the maga- zine Art of the Cinema, says: “The Soviet cinema has a great role in the upbringing of the na- tion’s youth within demands of the party. We have had some films and novels which exerted very good influence on our youth. ...| “But the young moviegoer is | | still dissatisfied with the fact there are produced only a few films which are able to stir and arouse youth deeply. ...For — instance, we produce few -film comedies, scientific fantasies or adventure films. .. “Now in recent years our Soviet movie industry produced such films as ‘Brave Men’ and ‘Frontier Post in the Mountains.’ Yet a large part of our youth has been im- patiently waiting for the new screen appearance of Tarzan, and | for some pirate films.” No Compromise Seen In Power Plant F ight By RUSSELL BRINES WASHINGTON (# Senate Republican Leader Knowland of California said today he knows of no administration plan to offer a compromise, in the Senate «fight over a proposed new private power plant in the Tennessee Valley. The power issue was paramount as the Senate again was recalled two hours early to continue debate on a bill to revise the Atomic £n- ergy Act. The measure would al- low private industry into the peace- time atomic field and would per- mit limited exchange of nuclear information with Allied nations. President Eisenhower has direct- ed the Atomic Energy Commis- sion to contract with a Southern utility group for a new 107-million- dollar steam plant to serve the Memphis, Tenn., area over Tennes- see Valley Authority lines. The re- placed TVA power would be shunt- ed to the AEC plant at Paducah, A number of Democratic sena- tors are backing an amendment | to the atomic bill, proposed by Sen. Anderson (D-NM), to limit the AEC’s contract authority to power supplied directly to atomic installations. | In the background is the long- festering dispute over what should be TVA’s proper role. Anderson amendment supporters have chal- lenged Eisenhower’s order as an attempt to cripple TVA; adminis- tration backers have defended it as a move to prevent unwarranted TVA expansion. Republican Sen. Cooper of Ken- tucky, making a rare break with the administration, announced yes- terday he would support the amendment.

Earlier today a Swedish naval squadron of similar strength, in- cluding the Swedish navy’s new flagship cruiser Tre Kronor, an- chored in the Neva River opposite the winter palace in Leningrad. The Soviet naval visit was the most spectacular Soviet gesture so far toward traditionally neutral Sweden in the Malenkov regime's peace offensive. Six species of insects are listed by scientists as infesters of the ‘corks of wine bottles. | KANTOR’S REOPENS Increase In Pension Payment WASHINGTON — Senator George Smathers has taken steps to guar- antee that pensioners will receive an increase shortly to be voted to them under the broadened program | to aid the aged, blind and dis-| abled. Smathers, a member of the Sen- ate Finance Committee which is| completing the re-drafting of the} Social Security law,. said agree-| ment has been reached to give a cost-of-living increase of six dol- | lars monthly to persons covered | by the Old Age and Survivors’ In- | surance. “We want to insure this raise} being passed on to all those for! whom it is intended’ Smathers said, “In the past, similar raises have been voted without many of ‘the pensioners receiving any in- creased benefit.” $6 Increase As presently drafted, the new OASI bill provides the $6 in-| crease but in the case of an in-| dividual drawing benefits both un-; der the OASI (federal) program{ and state welfare assistance, the | new provision could be meaning-| less. This is also true of blind and | disabled persons who are receiv-| ing aid from the state. Similar raises were voted in 1950, and} again in 1952, without the pen- sioners benefitting. “In these cases,” Smathers} pointed out, “what happened is} that the federal allotment was in- creased and the state allotment reduced by the same dollar amount, leaving the beneficiary precisely the amount he previously had been drawing. “The only net result was to} transfer to the federal govern- ment additional financial respon- sibility for the assistance program, and to relieve the state to that) same extent. Law Clarification | “This is not right. This is not} the intent of the law, and the law should be written very clearly on this subject. ‘ | “Our elder citizens have a hard | enough time getting by with what this program provides them, with- | out subjecting them to such a quick shortchanging. It is our) purpose to give them this raise— and to do everything in our pawer to see that they are permitted to keep it.” i Smathers’ proposed amendment, favoring the blind, and disabled as well as the aged, is sponsored by himself and Senators Long, Ma- lone and Kuchel. Smathers and Long (of Louisiana) are Demo- erats; Kuchel, of California, and Malone, of Nevada, are Republi- cans . The bi-partisan proposal is to insert a new section in the bill to be headed, “Amounts Disregarded in Determining Need.” Smathers pledged himself to work to obtain approval of the committee for the amendment and subsequently its| enactment into law.

Will Try To Gladden Life On Atoll | By A. I. GOLDBERG . UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. W— The United States is going to try for one more year to make the 200 fugitives from Bikini Atoll hap- Py on their temporary home on Kili Island. The promise has been given the U.N. Trusteeship Council by Frank Midkiff, U.S. high commissioner for the Trust Territory of the Pac- ifie Islands. The Bikinians, taken from their own atoll and lagoon by the super | bomb tests, have been shifted around in the islands and are un- happy on Kili, their most recent landing place. Midkiff did not say what the United States planned next if the new attempt—to build up farming | on Kili and to provide a fishing lagoon on Jaluit Atoll 30 miles away—fails to make the Bikinians happy. But he did tell the council, “It | for the Bikinians to return to their original Bikini Atoll in the near} future.” More bomb tests there | and at Eniwetok are intended, US. officials have hinted. Kili was a rich island, formerly a German copra plantation, but it had been allowed to run down in Tecent years. And it does not have a quiet lagoon for fishing. The U.S. officials are trying to build up the production of taro or bread fruit, copra, papaya and | other fryits and vegetables. A na- tive islander, James Milne, heads this project. | The Americans plan also to build | |a fish pond on the island, start the manufacture of fiber rope and | charcoal for export, and the bot-| tling of syrup made from the boiled stem of the coconut blos- | som. Thirty miles away, on Jaluit, the | administrators plan to make two| islands available for the Bikinians. | There they can fish in the lagoon, | raise pork and trade in copra. | Nearly half a million U. s.| people work in banks, nearly double the number so employed in| 1936.

He was sentenced | to a life term. | The second man, Merle William | Martin, 40, also of Joplin. was cap- tured Aug. 30, 1952, in St. Louis. He pleaded innocent but was con- victed Nov. 29, 1952. He was sen-| tenced to die. | Legal moves followed to save Martin’s life. This year Isgrigg, from his prison cell, issued a state- ment that he killed the deputy and Martin was innocent.
