    Miss Photoflash Assured a Minor Movie Role But Has No
Dreams of Becoming Film Star or High Fashion Model
By ALFRED LEECH ,
Uaited Press Staff Correspondent
, CHICAGO (UP) Diane Dani
jgellis. ' 18-year-old beauty queen,
is assured a bit part la a movie.
But the has no girlish dreams of
Hollywood stardom. ;
"Beauty queens are a dime a
.dozen out there." ' she said.
: "But if they offered me a con
tract I wouldn't turn it down."
Diane last month was chosen
by Chicago newspaper photog
raphers as "Miss Photoflash"
from a field ot 300 hopefuls.
; Since then, she's guided a baby
elephant down State Street and
she's baked the world's largest
hamburger, a 33-pounder.
Walking the elephant was fun,
but ordinarily Diane takes public
ity stunts in stride.'
"It's part of the job," she said.
If this sounds matter-of-fact for
an 18-year-old, , it isn't because
she lacks enthusiasm or doesn't
think being Miss Photoflash is
pretty wonderful
It's just that Diane has been
around. She's been a professional
model since she was eight years
old. .Without benefit of modeling
school (
Her mother was a model, and
everybody j in the family has mod
eled professionally except her fa
ther, who is busy running his own
architectural and' engineering
firm.
The "model" family includes
John Jr., .20, Richard, 16. Gail,
14, and Linda, 2tt, already a
veteran before the cameras.
This spring Diane will go to Hoi
lywood for a bit part in "Artists
and Models," with Dean Martin
and Jerry Lewis.
But she has no illusions about
Hollywood. For that matter, she
has no dreams . of becoming a
"high fashion' , model in New
York.
"They want the tall, thin, slinky
type," she said.
'Chicago models, she said, are
"happy, healthy and corn-fed."
Diane herself Is brown-haired,
S feet 6 inches tall and weighs
120 pounds. Her mother was a
strawberry blonde and Diane's
hair has reddish highlights. Her
eyes are dark brown.
The United States uses more
than 35 million dollars worth of
industrial diamonds a year. .
Pope Pius Makes
Lenten Appeal to
World Catholics '
VATICAN CITY (UP) Pope
Pius XII Thursday made a Lenten
appeal to the forces of Catholicism
to bring lost or wavering souls
back to the church's fold.
The frail, 79-year-old pontiff
spoke to 1000 parish priests, preach
ers and lay Ctholks in his first
mass .audience since his near fatal
collapse of Dec. 2.
It was also the first time in
three years that he delivered his
annual Lenten speech personally.
The Pope's voice was steady and
clear 1a his 20-minute address of
2000 words.

Nation's Water Map Out of Kilter,
U.S. Geological Survey Discloses
WASHINGTON (UP) The na
tion's water map still is out of
kilter. i
A year ago the water map was
topsy turvy, what with drought
where drought shouldn't be, dry
streams that should be wet, and
near-empty reservoirs that should
be fulL i
The Geological Survey reported
today that the dryness that has
plagued the southwest for years
now has spread northward . into
Oregon, part of the big : Northwest
area which is dotted w th power
developments that need lots of
water to operate.
The survey said the February
streamflow in Oregon was defic
ient. For the John Day, River it
was the lowest February since
1937. and on the Grande Ronde
River near La Grande it was the
lowest for February in 45 years.
A survey spokesman tsummar
ized the nation's water map: ,
"There is a remnant t of last
fall's drought in Southern Georgia
and Florida, the West still looks
kind of bad, the Colorado Basin is
really bad, and the Columbia Basin
may have a little less water than
usual.
The survey's February report
showed that "runoff on the Colum
bia River Basin in Canada
generally excessive but flow of the
Columbia sear The Dalles, Ore.,
was only 84 per cent of normal.
