But many of the prodi gies of her time didn't. : So the blonde nightclub sing- . er can't see her own child in this show business life. "I don't want her to get into it," she said. "It's a very diffi cult life for a child to lead. She should have junior proms and fraternity dances. Those are the happiest times in a person's . life."

As a youngster, Rosemarie had her own radio show, sang for three Presidents and could warble 300 songs from memory. "This makes me sound like I'm an old hag," she chuckled. "It's so funny when people of about 70 come up and say they saw me when they were little. "Really," she said. "I'm only 28." Maybe Woodpecker Dislikes Television Cleveland, 6.

Southern Oregon's Furniture Showplace CONVENIENT TERMS OPEN EVENINGS 7 n Pre-Senience Clinic Will Urge Probation Chicago (U.R) Eleven mid western states will study the formation of a pre-sentence clin ic designed to help judges put fewer persons in prison and more on probation.
