ArRTL 12. 1035 MERCIFUL DEATH IS DEBATED FOR IMBECILE INFANT Baby Girl Bom Deaf, Dumb and of Frail Mentality I Physicians Declare Child Probably Will Not Live PHOENIXVILLE, Pa. iUP) A iix-monthe-old girl baby, believed doom ed to be a- deformed imbecile, 1a the center of a controversy at Pennhurst Stat hospital on whether the tot should be given a merciful death or be permitted to mature. The baby, whose mind U frail, was boin deaf and dumb. Physicians guard her Identity In secrecy, and abo the name of the mother who be lieves her child died at birth. One of those favoring merciful death Is Dr. J. Evans Schleele. secre tary of the Pennsylvania Welfare de partment, under whose Jurisdiction the hospital operates. Favors Death Said Dr. Schleele: "The system under which every effort la made to keep alive a hope less case Is one of the peculiar Ideas of our civilization. "I believe the law should permit appointment of a commission of eminent physicians who would make a study of such cases and rule whe ther or not the child should live. In some cases the child Is better off dead." I The baby Is being fed milk through a tube. Dr. Walter Krause, resident physician at the hospital, maintains the child is "alive and doing well." Oppose riiystcliin's View Opposed to Dr. Schleele's stand Is " Robert von Marschzlsker, former Pennsylvania supreme court Justice. His statements were: "The baby has a soul. We have no right to destroy it. I do not believe the right to take life should be placed In the hands of officials." Physicians have stated that the child probably will not live. "But a long as she la In our care we will do everything In our power to see that she gets proper attention" Dr. Krause declared.

All Eagles and members of the Aux iliary are asked to come early to at tend the business meetings as many Important matters are scheduled to be discussed. Richard Sleight, graduate of Med ford high school and widely known in Medford for his artistic ability, received word from the Hershey Chocolate Co. that work he sub mitted to them has been accepted, according to a telephone communi cation from San Francisco, where ne has been employed for the past several months as artist for F. W. Woolworth stores. He telephoned his parents, Mr. and Mrs. E. R. Sleight of 40 North Peach street Wednesday night of the good news, saying he had been paid $250 for one of the drawings. It was also understood that the company would accept more of his work. Dick has done art work for several large compnnies since he was trans ferred to San Francisco, where he has a studio in the Rosenthal build ing, from Portland, having been first employed there by the Woolworth Co. In June, 1033. He was editor ot the Crater magazine at Medford high school, and showed outstanding abil ity as an artist In that work as in the commercial field. FOR MOVIE ROLE B RORHIS TOONS HOLLYWOOD (AP) It was a Bat urday noon and Harry Bucquet was Just leaving the studio's main gate when he was halted by a message. Marion Talley was on Stage 33. wait ing for a test. Would he go over right away, because Miss Talley had only a limited time In Hollywood and besides the stage space would be needed later in the day? Of course he would. Harry Buc quet Is M-G-M s "test director." He used to be an assistant director, but (or the last two years he has been making tests, and directing on his own sometimes. Mb now with the "Chic" Sale one-reeters. But mostly what he does Is directing tests. Marlon Talley. the operatic prima donna, was waiting. In the costume of Marguerite In "Faust." With her was Herbert Stothart. the studio mu sical director, a piano accompanist, and the usual technical crew. There had been no time to assemble a sym phony orchestra which usually helps singers brave a test. In less than four hours the Talley test was done. In that time she had been recorded and photographed sing ing the "Jewel" aria from "Faust" and a Victor Herbert melody. The test brought tht contract which will bring the singer back for a picture this summer. Bucquet thinks Marlon Talley was unusually courageous facing the test camera for the first time. Many play ers, even seasoned In films, betray extreme nervousness on the test stage. Testing Is going on. day in and day out, at all the studios. Two or three tests a day are made at M-G-M of new prospects alone. Then there are end less tests for players to fit a role, for costumes for makeups, for wigs. So he Is used to it. But candidates for rolea and contracts "The most difficult thing for them." says Bucquet. "Is the mental hazard. They know they are being tried out, that success depends on what they do before the camera in thoss moments of testing. I have had actors be come hysterical, actresses break into tears, under the strain. The funny thing Is that these same players, once they are selected, may give fine performances. Knowing they have Evangelist Philip Sidersky, a con verted Jewish rabbi, will give several lectures at the Baptist church from April 19 to 21. The church will open Its doors to the public for the op portunity of hearing this widely known evangelist. One of his lectures will be a real istic demonstration of the Passover Service. Just as the Jewish people have observed It for all ages, with Interpretation in relation to Christ. Dr. W. B. Biederwolf, director of the Wlnonah Lake Bible conference, once said of Rev.

Of the 10.000.000 women who are now engaged In gainful employment throughout the country, approxi mately 00 per cent of them are stip porting dependents from their earn Ings, Miss Lobdell said. "Women are willing to give up their Jobs If some sort of provision can be made for the care of themselves and their dependents." she said, "but un til that is done they will have to work to feed themselves and those ttiey support."
