Actress gives up career to become Catholic nun HOLLYWOOD (UPI) Actress Dolores Hart, a success in mo tion pictures since she co-starred In her first film five years ago, has given up her movie career to become a Roman Catholic nun. The actress' former press agent disclosed Wednesday that Miss Hart, 24, already has entered a convent in New England, but at her request he did not reveal which one. She must serve as a postulate for one year. Miss Hart's relatively brief ca reer began when she was a fresh man in college and an admirer sent her photograph to producers. It resulted in a co-starring role with Elvis Presley In "Loving You" In 1957. Often called a successor to Grace Kelly and Ingrid Bergman because of her clean, graceful beauty.. Miss Hart's other films included "Wild is the Wind," "Lonely Hearts," "The Plunder ers," "Sail a Crooked Ship," "Francis of Asslsl" in which she played a nun, and her most re cent, "Come Fly With Me." "I'm not leaving anyone or any thing behind," a friend quoted her as saying-, "but I'm taking a full and grateful heart with me." The friend said Miss Hart had felt for many years that she had a religious vocation but thought she would be rejected as a postulant. The . actress said her decision was not a hasty one. She had gone twice a year to a convent to attend religious retreats. She first went while co-starring in the Broadway hit "The Pleasure of His Company." Miss Hart was converted to Catholicism when she was 12 and attended Catholic schools, includ ing Marymount College here. A native of Chicago, Iter real name is Hicks. Her parents sep arated when she was 4 years old. She broke an engagement to Los Angeles businessman Don Robinson last year, but friends said this had nothing to do with her entering the convent. APPROVE INSURANCE BILL WASHINGTON (UPI) The Senate Finance Committee Wed nesday approved a bill to give World War II and Korean War veterans an opportunity to renew G.I. life insurance they have al lowed to lapse. Although the Senate has passed the measure at least five times previously, it always has died in the House, Veterans Administration offi cials have said the pui would not cost the government any mon ey because veterans would pay all the costs. Kennedy still planning visit to Great Britain GATWICK, England (UPI) White House Press Secretary Pierre Salinger confirmed when he arrived from Rome today that President Kennedy still is coming to Britain at the end of this month. "Yes, sir," said Salinger when queried about the visit. "I would not be here if he were not coming." Asked it there had been any difficulty because of the British government crisis over the Pro- fumo scandal, Salinger said, "I am not saying anything on that." Salinger and a group of U.S. security officials arrived at Gat- wick Airport, 27 miles south of London, aboard Kennedy's private plane to make arrangements for the President's visit June 29-30 for consultations with Prime Min ister Harold Macmillan. They were on a similar mission in Italy, which Kennedy also will visit. WASHINGTON (UPI)-A north ern liberal today hotly defended President Kennedy's civil rights program against a southern sena tor's charge that it was a "step in the direction" of communism, "Surely most Americans agree that an American citizen in the uniform of his country can expect to be served a cup of coffee," said Sen. PhUip A. Hart. D-Mich. "I just don't equate that with socialism." Hart was defending Kennedy's television appeal to the nation for support of civil rights against Sen. Richard D. Russell, D-Ga., leader of the southern bloc. Praises Kennedy Address Hart told a reporter that "like most Americans ... I was proud of his courage and- moved by his plea, He said Kennedy s voice was "the voice of American as piration wholly consistent with the democratic system." Russell, with tacit approval of southern colleagues who met with him for 90 minutes, accused Ken nedy of "using threats of mass violence" to pressure his civil rights program through Congress. He said he was "shocked" at the President's Tuesday night tele vision address to the nation. He Awards received by UO students For meritorious work in jour nalism, 223 Oregon high school seniors have been recognized by the Oregon Scholastic Press. These students received Eric W. Allen awards for newspaper work and George Turnbuil awards for yearbook work. Stu dents were nominated by their high schools for the awards which were made by the Oregon Schol astic Press, an affiliate of the Uni versity of Oregon School of Jour nalism. Students receiving awards in cluded Annette Larson, Kathy Larson and Ken Morton, all of Sisters. 1 promised to oppose the adminis tration program with "every means and resource at my com mand." Russell's attack drew from Hart, sponsor of civil rights leg islation of his own, a counter promise of "wholehearted sup port" for the administration civil rights package, expected next week. Charges Special Right Russell charged that using fed eral authority to end segregation in Drivate business establish ments "creates a new and spe cial right for Negroes in deroga tion of the property rights of all of our people." "I do not believe that the American people will be easily friehtened into discarding our system for adventures into social ism that have been discredited wherever tried," Russell said. He said the major distinction between a free government and a "socialistic or communistic state" is the right to own and control property. Asked If he was saying that the Kennedy civil rights proposal on equal access to facilities was "communistic, Kusseu repuea: "It's a step in that direction. District Court cases reported Deschutes County District Court collected $177 in fines for various traffic violations. George Thomas Tadevic and Jarrell Bruce Pinkston, both of Bend, were each fined $15 for vio lation of the basic rule. Albert Charles Minnick, Bend, paid $10 for the same charge. Also paying fines were Charles Leroy Waite, Eugene, obscured rear vision, $10; Jerry Lynn Page, Bend, no muffler, $10: William John O'Donnell, Bend, and Guy Gibson, Oakland, Calif., disobey ing stop sign, lined $10 each. Clarence Raymond Close, of Prineville forfeited $97 fine for overload on a truck. Insect sting danger noted by Dr. Maier Dr. William J. Maier, medical director of the Tri-County Health Department, received a report from the State Health Office that venom from honeybees, bumble bees, wasps, yellow jackets and hornets is, drop for drop, just as potent for certain susceptible per sons as deadly rattlesnake venom. Authorities believe that stings by these insects kill more people in the United States than the feared rattler. Violent reactions to stings most often occur in those who have al lergic tendencies. A severe reac tion is even more likely if their systems have been sensitized to insect venom by a previous sting. Children, who are particularly vulnerable because of their out door summertime play and nat ural curiosity, should be taught to steer clear of stinging insects and not chase after them or try to catch them. Bees are more likely to sting on bright, warm days when their business of gathering nectar is in terrupted. Gaily colored or dark, rough clothing attracts them, but they tend to avoid white clothing with a hard finish. When the worker honey bee stings, the stinger and venom sac, which are left in the victim's skin, continue to work deeper into the skin for about 20 minutes, while injecting more venom. The sting er and sac should be removed as quickly as possible and cold pats should be applied while medical aid is sought. Anyone who has had more than the usual unpleasant local reac tion to a sting should ask a doc tor about the advisability of pre ventive treatment that may pro tect against the possibility of a later, more severe reaction.
