Problems Galore Arise
For Solution in Summer
, Tii rnn e
ncn lunft. un .The sun
pushes as far north today as it
can, and for many Arr.-rirun! this '
may well usher in what will!
come to be known as the summer
of decision, .
Problems galore will be forced
upon you woi Id-shaking or just
plain shaking. They range from
the male form un-divine and the
new rag-bag hairdo for women to
the question of how many resort
bound autos can squeeze into one
highway intersection.
Already city streets are seeking
the first bare male knees of the
torrid season. Clothing men think
this will be the summer to decide
two of the burning issues of our
day. Will walking shorts emerge
from the suburbs to become stand
ard summer wear? Will long hose
or the ankle Sock be the American
male's final choice?
In the industry some also sec
this as the summer of decision
for the fibers made by man. Use
of synthetics in hot weather cloth
ing may continue to increase at
the impressive rate of former
years. Or it may have about
reached us peak of general ac
ceptance.
Another vital question: the trend
toward casualness in dress. Some
refer to it bitterly as the trend
toward sloppiness. How much
more informal can the grown male
and the adolescent female get? Or,
By SAM DAWSON
(P) The sunt to put it the way the subjects of
tne inquiry would, whose
busi
ness u it but theirs?
What's worrying merchants now
is this: some men may decide to
sweat out the Asiatic crisis in last
years sun. But there s a good
chance others will go whole hog
for an entirely new summer ward
robe meaning, "If the roof's go
ing to fall in anyway, why not
splurge?"
The first vacationers, mean
while, are taking to the country
side. By the Fourth of July, resort
curwrj should have an inkling ou
this decision: Will this summer be
their biggest? Has the winter's
business recession thinned the
ranks of the trippers? Has it made
them more penny conscious?
To get down to the facts of life,
will Papa buy Mama a new sum
mer formal and take her to a
swank resort for a fling? Or will
they stay home and paint the
house themselves?
The first benefits one set of bus
inessmen. The second moves stocks
of others off shelves and out of
factories. .
Resort owners say reservations
and traffic in the first June week
indicate a full summer of play
ahead. Sellers of cars and gasoline
and of all the trappings of sport
and recreation are counting on
it too.

Sherbring, pastor of St. Boniface
parish, Sublimity, assisted.
The Servite Sisters came to
Sublimity from Vienna, Austria,
in isoo and are now located in
the old sistej-s convent built in
1846.
The new structure will be a
modified two story building with
rooms for 26 on the first floor
and living quarters for the sisters
and staff on the second floor.
The present home is turning
away applicants for rooms every
day and, while under Catholic
direction, has taken care of more
non-Catholic than Catholic resi
dents, it was . learned at the
program.
The present staff includes two
of the Servite sisters: Sister M.
Bonfilia and Sister M. Agnes.
Three others from the same order
are expected within a short time.
The sisters first came in Septcm-
oer 1950.

HOLLYWOOD HI - How does
modest man enact his own
amazing life on the screen?
Actor Audie Murphy is not sure
he'll live through it, but he is un
dertaking to portray the soldier
Audie Murphy in "To Hell and
Rack." The autobiography Is being
filmed with an expensive' produc
tion by Murphy's home studio,
Universal-International.
BEAUTY EXPERT
1 v"-'!
"American Women have per
haps the best know-how in the
whole world about how to be
their attractive best," declares
beauty expert, Miss Florence
Cappel. who is now appearing
.at The Capital Drug store dur
ing the week o June 21 through
26. Especially trained in Ma
dame Helena Rubinstein's fab
ulous Filth Avenue Salon, this
beauty expert is visiting here
this week to help every woman
make the very most of her own
natural assets. Extending a
warm invitation to every wom
an to visit her during her week
long stay, Miss Cappel urges all
women to be sure to Ret their
free beauty mask at The C apital
Drug Store.
Murphy's record as a soldier in
World War II is unparalleled. He
won 23 decorations, including the
big one the Medal of Honor.
While he was killing 240 German
soldiers, a mortar shell burst at
his feet, he was perforated by an
artillery shell blast and shot in the
tun by a sniper s nutlet.
The former sharecropper boy
from Kingston, Tex., is modest
about his war achievements. Di
rector Jess Hibbs told me he and
producer Aaron Rosenberg have
met opposition on some points in
the script.
"I think it's kind of silly to show
me getting the medals at the end
of the pitiure," Murphy reasoned.
"Those who know I got the medals
will understand. And for the others
the events will speak for them
selves." Audie remarked that the rest of
the script is shaping up well, but
he'll take a stand on that matter.
I asked him what would happen
if Ihe studio remained firm and
put another actor in the role.
"Fortunately, that's in the small
print of my contract," he laughed.
"Nobody else can play the role but
me. I had to do it that way. Other
wise they would have had Tony
Curtis in the nart long ago."
Hihhs said that two thirds of the
picture would be shot on location
near Yakima, Wash., 'where the
Army will supply troops and full
cooperation. The terrain approxi
mates the settings of Sicily. Italy
and France, where Murphy fought

Word has been received here
of the promotion to a commander
in the U. S. Navy of John Lind
hock, son of Mr. and Mrs. A. L.
Lindbeck. The promotion was ef
fective June 1.
Lindbeck, who was granduated
from the Naval Academy, Annap
olis, in 1942, is with the intelli
gence department on the staff of
the Chief of Naval Operations
and stationed at the Pentagon,
Washington, D. C.
Prior to this assignment, he
was in command of the Douglas
A. Munro and in October, 1953,
was presented with a Commenda
tion Ribbon with Combat Dis
tinguished Device for meritor
ious service as commanding of
ficer of the USS Douglas A.

tions against the North Korean

oned 122 Americans, including
Richard Applegate, 42, Medford.

Co. and former United Press cor
respondent; Donald Dixon, 26, New

Fate Still Unknown

ternational waters between Hong
Kong and Portuguese Macao on
Marcb 21, 1953, by Chinese gun
boat. . ii
Feiplng and Moscow nave re
mained silent . about their fate.
They disappeared mysteriously be
hind the Bamboo Curtain after the
42-foot yacht was seized and towed
to Lap Sap Met Island, five miles
southwest of Hong Kong. Humors
and clandestine reports from
"travelers" involved in the
trigue and underground of Hong
Kong nave provided only conflict
ing clues to their whereabouts,
perhaps Peiping or Canton.
The promise from Geneva has
brought new- hope to their long
watting families who wonder what
the Reds mean by "good behavior"
and who realize that Communists
are ruthless and do not do human

SAN FRANCISCO (UP) Ai
preliminary . report of a survey
that may tell whether there 1 a
link between cigarette smoking
and lung cancer highlighted the
opening session of the American
Medical association convention
today.
The report on the cancer study
was to be made at a general
scientific session of the AMA by
Dr. E. Cuylcr Hammond, director
of the statistical research section
of the Americas Cancer Society,
New York.
It covered results to date of a
study started by the society two
years ago. In that period, 22,000
volunteer workers for tne society
have followed the lives of 204,000
men between the ages of SO and
60. , .
Each is questioned about his
smoking habits. As each dies,
the cause of death is carefully 1
checked.
. The survey was considered the
first valid test of the theory that
heavy cigarette smoking is the
maior cause of lung cancer in
men.! The disease has increased
1500 per cent in 25 years and kill
ed 22,000 Americans last year."
The lung cancer report was
one of 300 scientific papers on
new drugs and treatments and
other medical and surgical prob
lems to be presented to the 12,
000 physicians and surgeons at
tending the five-day AMA confer
ence.
Dr. Edward J. McCormlck, re
tiring AMA president, raised the
question of medical costs when
he urged the medical profession
to adopt fees for their services
based on average fees for their
areas. - '
"The time has passed when the
medical profession can predicate
a fee on the basis of a patient's
salary, or whether he is in a pri
vate room or a ward or Uvea on
the hill' or in more modest resi
dential surroundings," McCor-
mick said. . . '

, About Anniversaries
As June seems to be the month for anniversaries (and we hope
you remembered yours!), here is one anniversary you might
have forgotten.
It was just 52 years ago this month that the first Auto Insur
ance policy was writen in the United States. It Insured "$050
on a 2-scaled, surrey-style, French Pattern Stanley Steamer
and for $50 on the tools, implements and personal effects."
The perils covered were fire in addition to stranding, sinking,
burning or collision when the auto was on board a vessel.
Through the years the auto Insurance companies have worked
hard to keep pace with the vital, growing auto industry. Take
SAFECO OF AMERICA for example. That's an idea! Take
it from us and we'll be glad to help you
