Games Music Refreshments (LA K I 1 1 1 ship were described, Princesses Named Selected this week to reign with Queen Audrey at the roundup are Princess Judy Briggs, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William M. Briggs, Ashland; and Princess Glenda Martin, daugh ter of Mr. and Mrs. Glenn Mar tin, Medford. Sixteen-year-old Princess Glenda is a sophomore at Med ford senior high school, and is planning a writing career. A lover of music, she plays first violin in the high school orches tra. A member of the Medford Trail Riders, Princess Glenda participates in horseback rides and games with that group. In the roundup she will ride a white Arabian gelding, '"Beans," a rodeo horse from New Mexico. At the present she is training "Dr. Pepper," her three-year-old Tennessee walking horse. For a hobby, Princess Glenda collects photographs of horse shows and rodeos in which she has partici pated. She is a member of the 4-H club and has sheep, dairy and sewing projects underway; is club reporter for Howard Stock club, and president of the Howard sewing division. Prev iously she has been a member of the Longview Colt club and Cowlitz Comity Saddle club of Longview, Wash., and participat ed in drill teams of both clubs. Other Hobbies Aside from these activities she enjoys tennis, roller skating, picniking. In the kitchen she is not at a loss, according to Mrs. Martin, who says her specialty is roast chicken with dressing and rich brown gravy. Princess Judy Briggs won't remember this for she was too young at the time her mother was overheard to say, "Judy just isn't happy unless she smells like a horse." That was the way with Judy. Whenever she wasn't to be seen, she was sure to be found out in the corral fondly caressing her mount or riding briskly up a side road. Now 16 years old, she is a freshman at Ashland junior high school, a member of the Ash land Riding association and a veteran in the show ring with her trained Arabian gelding, "Tezeyn." Judy has an array of ribbons won at the annual Ore g o n All-Arabian horseshows held in Portland. She is making plans now to enter the show again this year. In Article Princess Judy and "Tezeyn" were subjects of a two-page article with photographs in the Oregonian magazine section last year. With patient tutelage, she has trained "Tezeyn" 'In such stunts as sitting up, kneeling, counting his and Judy's ages by pawing front foot, lying down, picking up a whip, placing one forefoot on a high pedestal; and drawing all four feet onto a plat form with Judy on his back. In the summer. Judy makes long trips into the mountains with her parents, last year mak ing the hazardous trip down Rogue river from Galice to Gold Beach. Though they will preside regally over the roundup June 10 and 11, this year's queen and her princesses could no doubt "show up" some of the best per formers in the ring.

Proxy Marriage Of Bergman 'Added Sin' Rome, May 27 (U.R) A high Roman Catholic church official said today that the proxy mar riage of Actress Ingrid Bergman and Italian Director Roberto Ros- sellini is an added sin" in the eyes of the church. "In view of the notoriety of the case," the official said, '".Miss Brrgman and Rossellini are not only living in sinful adultery in the eyes of the Catholic church, but with the publicity attached to them they set a most per nicious example in civil society itself . . . "The possibility of a (Catholic) church wedding for Miss Berg man and Rossellini is well nigh completely excluded. The church does not recognize their respec tive divorce and annulment." ll f- Ride- with '3 51"' Ahid .?"!r WHAT A MITT TCHIU HAVI AT... IT J J"Y- I ! Hon ...

Mar 28, 1930 ....AROUND It VIRGINIA United Preae Hollywood May 28 (U.R) Actor Henrv Wilcoxon, bored with the Hayworth - Bergman- Gardner head- lines, suggest ed today all the big-n a m e stars who've hung onto their wives for 10 years ought to get together and start a "Same Old Girl" club. It's about time Holly- VlrrinU MacFhenoS wood husbands did something about this sizzling wife-switching reputation they've got, he says. That belongs to the hot-blooded boys on the fringe not the solid citizens who only need one woman to keep up their ego. Anrl if vnu'ta Vtonn Hrnrtlin over the recent amnrnus antics from Rome and Paris and Spain, Wilcoxon's list of "stay-married" spouses will give you quite a jolt. They're not tired old has-beens nobody hears about any more. They can still generate enough oomph to wow the ladies with a passionate clinch. And plenty of 'em still have to fight their way through squealing bobby-soxers every time they stick their pro files out in public.

And if the 20-year-anniver-saries don't convince you, Wil coxon can go back even further. "Cecil B. Demille will be cel ebrating his 50th wedding anni versary in 1952," he says. "There may be an item in the papers about it." But it'd be a much bigger story if he divorced his wife. "That's why I think we need this 'Same Old Girl' club. May be if we got together once in a while, we could convince the public people do stay married in Hollywood." Plenty of Big Names Look at Joe E. Brown, Jean Hersholt, and Otto Kruger, he says. They've had the same old gals for going on 40 years now. And how about to 20-to-20 I class? Plenty of big names in there, too: Fred Allen, Jack Benny, James Cagney, Charles Laughton, Frederic March, George Murphy, Edward G. Rob inson, and Spencer Tracy, Not a has-been in the bunch. Stack this list of married movie stars up against the play boys who flit from bride to bride. Wilcoxon says, and it's the playboys who get the short end of the deal. Besides, they have to pay ali mony. Hollywood, May 27 (U.R) Actor Henrv y Wilcoxon s wife. Joan, gave birth to a daughter Friday, the couple s third girl. Rita Hayworth Denies She's Expecting Baby London, May 27 (U.R) The best source today spiked a re port that Rita Hayworth is ex pecting another baby. Miss Hayworth herself paused in the lobby of the Ritz hotel, glanced at her top-hatted hus band on crutches and said: "No, it's not true. I'm not ex pecting." That was all she had to say about a Los Angeles report quot ing "sources close to the family" that she was. Bells with a delicate, musical peal might better be described as "tinny" than as "silvery." Ap proximately four parts of copper and one part of tin are blended into what is known as "bell metal."
