The paper ‘was informed that Doris Day was due to arrive in her private plane at 10:41, so we dashed out to the airport only to be told that the Doris Day who had just landed was not the singer. But. we soon found out that this Doris Day was none other than Mrs. John Renna, who with her husband flew down from New York to be god-parents for Rickey, the The Arthur Murray Studio Sponsors...

Professionally, Mrs. Renna is Do- tis Day and designs for Doris Day Furs, one of the better known New York fur manufacturers, It's Her Real me She was a popular stage actress and Doris Day is her own name. After she married John Renna, whose ‘family has been in the fur trade for many years, she turned |her talents to design and the firm has among its clients many of the top stage Broadway stage stars big big name radio and television Personalities, and a consid number of Key West women. ‘The Rennas have recently re- turned from Europe and attended Dior’s opening. That did it. The next question was a natural — “What do you think of Dior’s new “H” line?” Felons have four annual leaves of three days each. They cannot go outside a certain area, cannot get drunk or start brawling, and must return in 72 hours. Other- wise they are on their own—with the equivalent of $5 earned at work in prison. Violators of leave rules can be punished by 30 days in solitary con- finement. From 10 to 20 per cent of the leave takers break the rules, but no prison plans to abandon the vacation procedure. Warden Gunnar Rudstedt of Langholmen Prison says the re- sponsibility of the vacations exerts a good effect and has juced the sexual aberrations that occur in every prison.” Eight years ago Sweden adopted a policy of treating prisoners ‘with Page 10 due respect for their human dig-|- nity.” Inmates occasionally re- ceive their wives in prison rooms. Girls studying social welfare at a university go to Uppsala Prison to play chess and table tennis with prisoners or to lead discussions on religion or ethics. Authorities say the prisoners behave like gentle- men at prison dances. There’s a novel “cure” for pris- on breakers. They are sent to in- stitutions without walls or fences. There are fewer breaks from these Places than. there are from walled prisons. Toward the end of their terms some of the men take up work at regular wages outside the institu- tions, returning to their bases only for sleep or “free time.” With a population of seven mil- lion, Sweden has about 3,000 pris- oners. Only 60 or 70 of them are women. The 1946 legislation set- ting up new rules for their treat- ment abolished confinement in locked cells in daytime. The pris- ons are, in effect, workshops for state institutions. They make letter boxes, furniture and carpets. Most authorities seem to feel the system helps ease prisoners back into society, with substantial benefits.
