Most law yers view with alarm the task of cross-examining a woman wit ness. Women are so unpredicta ble a lawyer never knows when a feminine witness will come through with an answer that will prove damaging to her question er's case. Therefore, most law yers get rid of women witnesses as quickly as possible. But not Jerry Giesler. He seems to under stand women. It is said he is the greatest all time cross-examiner of the female of the species. As the attorney for Walter Wan ger, he will have an opportunity to cross-examine some very in teresting feminine witnesses. That is a trial I don't want to miss.

MORRIS, Aga " Fmom 2-2846 Pend Oreille Blast Tests Postponed Washington (U.R) The Navy's proposed underwater ex plosion tests in north Idaho's Lake Pend Oreille have been "indefinitely postponed," it was announced Monday. Rep. John T. Wood (R., Ida.), said Secretary of the Navy Dan Kimball had notified him of the postponement of the controver sial tests. The action followed protests by north Idaho and east ern Washington civic and out door groups, the Spokane utili ties department and others. Wood did not say whether he had been noticed of the reason for the postponement, but Kim ball said earlier that if groups affected could not be convinced the tests were practically harm less, the Navy would drop the plan.

This time the statement is accompanied by a suggestion that newlyweds plan to have their children born in the winter months. This claim al ways attracts my attention, as I was' born on July 24. Also, as I now have my racing system prac tically perfected, I am desirous of living to a ripe old age to en joy it for an extended period. Anyway, Xing Gustav V, of Swe den, John D. Rockefeller and George. Bernard Shaw were all bom in the summer and each lived to be over ninety years of age. Says' She .- "That Italian actress who said many of the male film stars of this country are too elderly to play great lovep parts, was quite right," writes a young woman of Manhattan. Ht was an excellent bit -of constructive criticism and Hollywood should take notice of it. The two greatest screen lovers of all time, Rudolf Valentino ana John Gilbert, were in their mid dle: twenties in the heyday of their popularity. Now we have men portraying great lovers who are in their late forties. Some over fifty. I agree with that Ital ian actress that love scenes be tween , these elderly men and young women are ridiculous. At times positively revolting. Let us have some young screen lovers. Let these elderly men, who have had their day as great lovers, turn to character acting." Asking : .' Queries, from "clients. Q. You recently compared Vera Ellen to Marilyn Miller. -That's pegging Miss. Ellen pretty high. I don't agree. In what edition of the Ziegfield Follies did Marilyn Miller make her Broadway bow? A. Miss Miller was not a Zieg fieldian discovery. She made her first smash hit in a Shubert pro duction, "The Passing Show of 1914." Q. How old was Mrs. Ov- ila. Dionne when she gave birth to quintuplets. How old is she now? My husband claims it would, still be possible for her to give birth to; another set of quintuplets. A. Mrs. Dionne was 25 when the quintuplets were born. She is now 42. 1 have heard of women that old giving birth to twins. This includes a mother who hkd. previously given birth to twins. But I never heard of a woman, over 40 giving birth to triplets, quadruplets or quintup lets.' Still, I wouldn't say it is im possible. Your husband appears to be . quite "an anything can happen" thinker. Does he play longshots? Literary Not When Charles . Dickens gave readings from his works in New York city in 1867, the New York ers battled for tickets of admis sion like modern Manhattanites do for World Series ducats. Many people waited in line all night for the box office to open. The speculators reaped a harvest. Five dollar tickets were sold for $50. Two dollar tickets brought $26. And in those days $1 was really a powerful buying med ium. Dickens received about $3,500 a lecture. From the 76 lectures he delivered in this country his net profit-was $14, 000. Dickens' favorite reading was an excerpt from David Cop perfield. Passing By Frank Leahy, brilliant Notre Dame football coach, is the just ly proud papa of eight children. However, that is not the record for sports figures. "Red" Orms by, once a major league umpire, was the father of 12 children . . . Sir Thomas Beecham, amusingly temperamental British orchestra leader. Sir Thomas is of the Beecham family of pill manufa-v turers. This organization once ran an advertisement reading: Hark!
