The Bend Bulletin. 1 Virginia Mayo Movie Milk Bath Since '32 By ALIXK MOSBY ITnlted Press Hollywood Writer HOLLYWOOD (UP) Virginia Mayo beat other Hollywood beau ties to the bathtub today by taking the first movie milk balh since C'laudette Colbert dunked in 400 gallons of the stuff back in 1932. Director Victor Saville elected to carry on the tradition of biblical bathing scenes. He ordered the long-legged Miss Mayo to step into a black sunken bathtub filled with 150 gallons of white-colored water for a scene in "The Silver Cha lice."' . This bath, however, was more subdued than past Hollywood Sat urday night scrubbmgs. Saville ordered an iron curtain of secrecy lowered against any re porters or photographers on the Aid to Asia Sfil! Mood ad Senator Says WASHINGTON (UP)-Sen. John J. Sparkman (D-Ala) warned Con gress today against cutting U.S. aid to southeast Asia just because of the new truce in Indochina. He said the "Munich" settle ment opens the way for more Red conquests and "sharpens up the need" for assisting other nations to build the free world's defenses. "We need foreign aid now worse than ever," he declared.

Well Covered But before entering the sound slage to take her milk balh in pri vate, Miss Mayo was cornered for her opinion on Hie screen ritual. It was a hot day. "This bath sounds great because it will be cool," the blonde ob served. Virginia wore a flesh-colored, strapless bathing suit and body make-up all over. She said she un derstood some French actresses took their movie baths in the nude and, "Well, really, that's going too far!" ' Miss Mayo said she would be covered discreetly by a huge towel when she steps out of the tub. Virginia thereby has nosed out Ann Baxter in the 1951 bathtub division. Director C. B. DeMille. long hailed ns the master and originat or of the biblical balhtub scone hasn't even decided yet whether Ann will climb into a tub for the Ten Commandments." So far the script for DeMillc's most supereolossal epic calls for another bathing scene, but not m a tub. The pharoah's daughter and handmaidens are scheduled to wander to the river for a bath and there find baby Moses in the bull rushes. In the past DeMille had Miss Colbert shiver in 400 gallons of real milk (historians insist I for "The Sign of the Cross."

I.oren Hnueen. nresidont of the firm, accused Kenneth Davis, ex--ntive secretary nf the Northwest Council of the LSW, of "distorting the true facts of the settlement." Davis had said in Portland yestcr- Hay, following announcement of the M e d f o r d settlement, that ArL workers at Medford Veneer and Plvwood Co. and Medford Door Corporation had been granted pay increases of 5 to 71S cents an hour. Haugen said Davis' statement was "typical 01 union aouuieutiK. He said the men returned to work with the understanding and agree ment that there would be no change in the present wage scale. However, a form ot escalator agreement was signed by the local and the firms nasmg nonus pay on plywood sales.

If the majority of the plywood sales was at the $90 price return, the company would pay a bonus of 7 1-2 cents for hours worked during the month. Haugen said no bonus will lie paid tor work performed during any month in which less than the majority of sales was at the $85 price.

Utah's Lee Set to Test Aid Legality SALT LAKE CITY (UP) Utah Republican Gov. J. Bracken Lee said today ho plans to test the legality of the federal govern ment's foreign aid program before the U. S. Supreme Court. The governor, long an opponent of federal foreign aid, federal in come taxes and federal grants to states, asked the stifle attorney general to ascertain the proper procedure for a citizen, or "state official," to take the issue to the nation's highest court. Lee contended that "it is a vio lation of our federal Constitution when our government gives our hard earned money to foreign nations." He called for the return of government to "moral integrity," which would eliminate the "desire for power allowing the government to take money at will from Amer icans and give it with equal ease to peoples of other nations.'" Lee said it is unconstitutional to give American money to foreign nations and "if I can find a way to legally protest this give away in the U. S. Supreme Court I'm going to do it." rOHTLAND LIVESTOCK By I:nitetl lresH Hog prices were down today.

(UP) An automobile plunged into a crowd of 1000 Catholics commemorating t,a i-onquistaaora Marian year last nignt, Killing an aged wor shipper and injuring 11 others. Antonio Lujan, 88, died shortly after the tragedy of a crushed head and chest. Mrs. Lorrenzo Baca, about 50, was in critical condition with a possible skull fracture and spinal injuries. Sis ter Anne Thomas, a nun, suffered a fractured pelvis and arm. M. D. A. Maes, a 70-year-old invalid, got into the car to wait for his companions at the cele bration in front of the Immaculate Conception Church and apparently tried to switch on the car lights. Instead, he tripped the ignition and started the engine. As the car moved toward the crowd, Maes tried to step on the brake but his foot came down on the accelerator instead. Nine other persons suffered less serious injuries as the panicked crowd scattered before the auto mobile. The religious gathering was in honor of the La Conquistadora, the oldest Catholic statue in New Mex ico. It dates back to 1625. Eugene Audience! Hears Dr. Bunche EUGENE (UP) Dr. Ralph Bunche, director of the United Na tions trusteeship division, told an overflow audience here last night that American opposition to the world organization is "ironic." The Nobel Peace Prize winner told a meeting in the Erb Memorial Union at the University of Oregon that critics tended to foget the successes of the United Nations and to stress its weaknesses and failures. And there are weaknesses and failures," he added. A capacity crowd of more than 1100 persons filled the main ball room of the Student Union here and an equal number heard the uidress over a public address sys tem in oilier parts of the building and on an outdoor terace. Dr. Bunche said his chief answer to critics of the U. N. is to ask, what alternative is there to a solution of world problems if we reject the United Nations and its lpproach to these problems? He stressed the importance of individual viewpoints in world crises and was critical oi wnni nc called the trend in American think ing that the individual can do nothing. Public policy stems from ndivitlual opinion, se said. Chickens Lazy In Summer, Too COLLEGE STATION, Tex. t!P Chickens, like humans, be come extra lazy during hot weather and seek summertime comfort. A chicken not only wants plenty of cool, fresh "drinking water but wants it convenient. If a watering fountain is more than 10 feet away, a chicken may go thirsty rather than make; the trip. I This is the observance of E. D. Parnrll. professor of poultry husbandry at Texas A. & M. Col-j lege. , He says that unless chickens drink plenty of water, there will be fewer eggs laid. Bulletin Classifieds Bring Results, CN WITH C-H Sweetland Claims Law Violated PORTLAND (UP) Democratic National Committeeman Monroe Sweetland today accused the Cor- don-for-Senator Committee of vio lating the state corrupt practices act. Sweetland, in a letter to Mult nomah County District Attornev John B. McCoui't, said the com mittee violated the law by mailing news releases to newspapers with out Kienuiying the author, source of publisher of the material on the release. Sweetland inclosed such a re lease he said was mailed to his newspaper, the Milwaukie Review He said that once out of theenvel- opes the releases are anonymous. several, , he said, contained out right falsehoods and scurrilous pesonal references to Republican senator Ouy Cordon s opposition. State Sen. Richard L. Neuberger opposes Cordon for the Senate. Sweetland- cited an opinion yes terday by Attorney General Robert Y. Thornton which said press re leases sent from campaign head quarters without designation of the name and address of the author and of the printer and publisher: thereof was in violation of the law. The opinion said such a press release was a "publication." However, Frank Herbert, who has been in charge of Cordon com mittee press releases, said the at torney general's interpretation that a press release is a publication within the meaning of the law "will be news to all newspaper men." Herbert said that press re leases are submitted solely to newspaper editors and not to the public generally and are not in themselves, in his opinion, a "publication." Herbert also said press releases while not themselves signed, are mailed in envelopes which bear the Cordon for U. S. Senator Com mittee return address. Thus, he said, no one can claim there has been any attempt to mislead or to make the releases anonymous. Bus-Riding Dog Gets Round Trip BUFFALO, N. Y. OPI-Two trans it company employes got an unlooked-for reward because of a stubborn dog that had enough sense to get in out of the rain. The dog, a boxer, boarded a bus during a rainstorm in the suburbs and refused to leave or be pushed out. When the. bus got to a mid town intersection, the driver, Mathias M. Becker, asked the bus supervisor, Daniel Shannon, what he should do. The bus was empty of human passengers by then. Shannon told Becker to return to" the corner where the boxer hopped aboard. He did, and there the dog got off. The boxer's owner learned what happened and telephoned "the transit company to thank the men. Then the Erie County Society against Vivisection, heard of the incident and mailed Becker nd Shannon each a $5 check for their "humanilarianism." Speeder Speeds To Elude Cop BUFFALO; N.Y.
