: Tito Opens Jail Doors
For 713 Ex-Staliniffes
I Belgrade, Yugoslavia, Oct. 6
I .UP) Marshal Tito has opened
J 'the jail doors for 713 former
pro-Russian sympathizers who
i repented and now are busy road
i building.
' Radio Belgrade, quoting Min
ister of the Interior Alexander
! Rankovic, said the former sup-
' porters of the Russian-led com-
inform (communist internation-
j al information bureau) had
' "confessed" the error of their
' ways. It said they had been re-
j leased from prison, and had vol-
j unteered to work on the new
road between Belgrade and Za-
! Release of the political pris
oners was interpreted here as
evidence of Tito's confidence in
i the internal strength of his re-
i gime.

NOT LIKE BOGART AND PANDAS
Film Stars' Dinner at Ciro's
Like Any Small-Towner's
By VIRGINIA MacPHERSON
Hollywood, Oct. 6 U.R Movie stars may sweep Into Ciro's
flashing mink and diamonds, owner H. D. Hover said today,
but they usually add up the check before they pay it just like
any small-towners out on a spree.
They're not above toting home their uneaten filet mignons
in a paper sack, either. "For the-
dog," of course,
And if this spoils your illu
sions of the wild and carefree
night life of the Hollywood gods,
we're sorry. But it isn't every
body who can go nightclubbing
with $50 pandas like Humphrey
Bogart.
"Vmi rlnn't Viavo tn nrnrl a
pile of dough to have fun at
Tiro's," owner Hover maintain
ed. "You can have yourself a
very fine time for less than $5
a person. And I don't like it
when celebrities hand out fat
tips. Spoils my waiters."

Vs" either, he added. A heavy tip
per is usually some tourist who's
busting a gusset trying to keep
up with what he thinks the Ca
blet and the Pecks and the
Flynns do on a night out.
"Or he's some unknown ac
tor who's trying to Impress the!
natives," Hover said. "Every
body knows he's Just a nobody
trying to act like a somebody."
Hollywoodites can have all
kinds of millions, but they still
stick to the lS-to-20 percent rule
for tipping. And anybody who
really knows his way around
the glittery Sunset Strip makes
with the addition and subtrac
tion (mostly addition in the
swankier spots) before he
reaches for the folding stuff.
"I encourage it," Hover said
"People can make mistakes

Thigh Shaper Whether you work at a desk or at the
piano keyboard, Miss Appleton recommends this exercise
for shaping thighs that might become heavy and flabby
from sedentary work: Squat on the floor with legs crossed
in front of you and arms spread out from the shoulders to
maintain balance. Now rise to a standing position, keeping
the legs crossed as you lift your trunk from the floor.

Most career women have jobs
that keep them glued to their
chairs all day. Perhaps the com
fort of a big cushioned seat is
one reason why they hold on
to their jobs. Give them hard
benches and stairs to climb and
there might not be as many
working girls.
It's much easier for the slim
hipped to catch a man, they say
another reason why the girl
with spreading posterior and a
good job which keeps her well
fed, and consequently well
rounded, enjoys single blessed
ness. But what of the stenograph
ers, clerks, receptionists, secre
taries, typists, librarians cash
iers and girls in a hundred-and-one
other sitting jobs, who want
to keep their girlish figures, in
anticipation of that big day?
Pianist Vera Appleton, member
of the famous Appleton and
Field piano duo, comes up with
a few answers.
Vera's problem is that she not
only spends an average of eight
hours a day seated at the piano
keyboard for practice sessions
and performances, but that her
sitting posture Is observed un
dcr spotlight on a stage before
huge audiences. Vera had to
resort to "sitting up exercises"
to combat bad sitting habits.
She says:
"The three main chair crimes
commited by girls who fall into
the bad posture category are
the slouch, the hunch and the
sprawl. The slouch sits with
shoulders let down, hands on
lap. The hunch leans forward
with head bent low, a habit that
will lead to wrinkles in the neck
and dowager's hump.
The sprawl is what causes
Cadillacs to a light post and
hoof it around the corner to
make their entrance.
Hover also has his waiters
briefed to keep a straight face
when glamour gal dripping
with ermine and emeralds asks
to take her unchewed steak
home to Rover.
"We may know they don't
even like dogs," Hover shrug
ged, "but why make a fuss? It's
their meat. They've paid for it
Paper sacks are cheap. And fil
ets are mighty tasty warmed
over for breakfast."
Along with other early radio
developments, Guglielmo Mar
coni is credited with being the
first to use an elevated wire as
a wireless antenna.

Washington, Oct. W) Ed
ward Manning, a former cm
ployee of the Chicago atomic
laboratory, testified today that
an accused Russian tpy had di
rect knowledge" of the wartime
work in the laboratory.
Manning, who now lives in
Knoxville, Tenn., was before the
house un-American activities
committee to tell what he knows
about Arthur Adams. In a re
port last year, the committee
named Adams as a Russian spy
who is believed now to be in
Russia.
Manning said Adams knew
what was going on in the lab
oratory and that he assured d-
ams got his knowledge from
Clarence HLskey, who worked in
the laboratory.
Manning said he was dismiss
ed by the laboratory for securi
ty reasons and that Hiskey, now
a professor at Brooklyn insti
tute was dismissed, too.
It was Hiskey who introduced
him to Adams, Manning testi
fied. Hiskey has appeared before
the committee twice and refus

fundamentals of correct sitting

Miss Appleton devised a series
of sitting-up exercises for her
self and pupils at her classes at
Juilliard School of Music to help
them achieve a sense of balance
when sitting, to correct posture
and figure faults incurred as
a result of bad sitting habits.
Here are some of Miss Apple-
ton's pointers for sitting belles
Sit back on a chair, stiffen
your knees and lean forward to
touch your toes. Now bend back
slowly until erect again. After
repeating this a number of times,
you should feel a tightening of
the stomach muscles on the
downward motion and a relaxa
tion as you go back.
To combat the tendency to
slouch, place the hands on the
seat of the chair, then extend
the legs backward with the body
maintaining a straight slant and
only the toes touching the
ground. Elbows should be per
fectly straight for this. Now
lower the body by bending the
elbows, until your chest touches
the chair. Remain in this posi
tion for a few seconds, then
raise the body on the elbows
Repeat six times, inhaling a

ing as you raise it. (It's a good
idea to make sure the chair
will not slip. Pick a heavy
one.)

crown. Pat hasn't had a fight
since last December, when he
won the California heavyweight
crown from hard-punching Tur
key Thompson of Los Angeles.
"I'm so certain that I can lick
Charles," he says, "that we sign- j
ed for this fight for $5,000. Some
of this I'm going to give to the
Livermore veterans' hospital
and the rest will go for expenses.
So you can see that the bout it
self will bring me nothing in

The odds-makers aren't quite
as confident as Pat. In fact, the
gamblers believe he has such a
I small chance that they report
little or no business on the fight,
although there are quite a few
bets being made on when Char
les will knock him out.
