Vivian, Robert Alda, Sam Le vene and even some of the "mugs" from the Broadway op ening night will present a trim med version of "Guys and Dolls" at the Royal Nevada hotel. The only difference from a stage run will be the audience devouring .steaks and the roulette tables clicking outside. "My husband, Manny Frank, and I tied up the rights and cut the show to an hour and a half," the blonde singer explained. "We will duplcate the costumes and sets of the New York run. I think it will start a trend of musicals playing in Las Vegas. "Pajama Game" would be wonderful there." t This 12-week wind-up in Las Vegas will bring Vivian a record for holding onto a role. She started wisecracking in Brook lynese for 'Guys and Dolls" on Broadway in 1950. After two and a half years, she moved on to head the London company. Then, contrary to usual Holly wood custom, producer Samuel Goldwyri tapped her for the movie version. "I kept hearing Marilyn Mon roe wanted the part, and also Betty Grable, but Mr. Goldwyn had told me in 1951 that he wouldn't do the movie without me," said Miss Blaine as we sat in her dressing room on the set at Goldwyn Studio today. No Disappointment The o'ther stage roles were taken by Frank Sinatra and non singers Marlon Brando and Jean Simmons. Vivian thinks Marlon and Jean "did beautifully their fans won't be disappoint ed when they sing." f . .l X-. t, , f J Ton doa't want iadgeta if yea have trouble hearing you need the help nf inexperienced, local heju lug aid Xpert, backed by a nationwide organization pro tracing fin iav ntrofneota year In and year owt That' what you will got for money when you place your trust la Sonotone, world' leading hear ing aid manufacturer and distrib utor.

Adamson District Manager 839 East Jackson Blvd. Miss Blaine tried Hollywood years ago but stardom "just didn't happen." Twentieth-Century Fox studio called her to take over Alice Faye and Betty Grable roles when these blondes became pregnant. "It's a kiss of death to be call ed a 'new Alice Faye' or 'new Betty Grable,' " she sighed. "I never could play my own self." After a nightclub stretch she won the "Guys and Dolls" part "because the producers saw something in me which Holly wood didn't comedy." Vivian now is so entrenched as "Adelaide" that fans often stop her on the street to "say 'person' in Brooklyn." I asked her, too, and she trilled, "I don't say 'poisson," I say 'pair-son. " "You know," she said as she wriggled into a pink satin dress for the "Take Back your Mink" number, "I feel like a mother about this part. I know "Adle laide" so well I can look at her objectively. : Jehovah's Witnesses Will Attend Conclave Seventy -five delegates from the Medford congregation of Je hovah's witnesses will attend an assembly at Vancouver, B. C, June 29 through July 3. J. W. Mather, presiding minister here, will head the delegation. v Ap proximately 25,000 are expected to represent the northwest at the conclave. Mather described this as one of a series of 11 world-wide con ventions. In 1953, Mather point ed out, an international gather ing of ministers at Yankee Sta dium in New York drew a peak attendance of . 165,829. from .97 nations.

Fruit Packers Told Of Regulations on Women and Minors Salem Fruit and vegetable packers have been notified by the state wage and hour commis sion that changes in the minimum standards on employment of women and minors in their firms will take effect August 13. The commission has rescind ed the 1942 order governing women's and minors' employ ment in such firms and brought the firms under regulations of a 1952 order which governs a min imum 66 cent hourly rate, the action ups the legal minimum of overtime pay for women in the plants from time and a half after 12 hours to time and a half after 10 -hours and double time after 12 hours daily. Wom en working with perishable pro ducts are permitted overtime hours under Oregon's wage and hour law. Minor employees of plants will be limited to a 10 hour day maximum under the change in orders. Other Requirements Other requirements which will newly affect women and minors working in the packing plants include a 10-minute rest period after three consecutive work hours and a sliding scale of wom en's overtime pay for hours worked on the seventh consecu tive clay. Weight-lifting restric tions and work recess regulations also are provisions of the 1952 standards not contained in the rescinded order. The wage and hour commission's action ex pands the 1952 order further to include meat processors but ex cepts the farmer processing fresh products on his farm. The commission is comprised of Mrs. Frederic W. Young and Mrs. Mary L. Jackson, Portland, and Henry S. Howard, Eugene, with N. O. Nilsen, labor commis sioner, serving as executive secretary.

Pasadena, Calif. U.R) Mrs. Romelle Roosevelt has obtained a surprise default divorce from Rep. James Roosevelt, whom she once accused of infidelities with a dozen women. Roosevelt was in Washington when Mrs. Roosevelt unexpect edly won the interlocutory de cree Tuesday, but was repre sented by counsel at the brief, uncontested hearing before Su perior Judge Kurtz Kauffman. Not On Calendar The surprise hearing was call ed without the case ever having been placed on the court's cal endar. Judge Kauffman explain ed attorneys for both parties had asked for the immediate default hearing. In obtaining the divorce, Mrs. Roosevelt made no reference to her Sensational charges of a lit tle more than a year ago that Roosevelt had been intimate with other women. Instead, she won the decree on an amended complaint which merely accused the Democratic congressman of menial cruelty. - The former nurse received sole custody of their three chil dren, James Jr., 9; Michael An thony, 8; and -Anna Eleanor, 7, with Roosevelt granted the right to visit them only at their home. First applications of spray to control lygus insects in alfalfa, lotus and clover should be made in the near future, W. B. Tucker, county extension agent, has re ported. ' t He said fields checked recent ly indicated that spraying should be done as soon as possible, with a second application, if needed, in 30 to 45 days. First applications should be made with DDT in either dust or spray form. Four pounds of 50 per cent DDT in the amount of water required to cover an acre with individual spraying ma chines should be used for spray ing. Twenty pounds of 10 per cent DDT per acre is advisable if dust is used, Tucker said. The second application should be with toxaphene because the latter is less toxic to bees and more toxic to grasshoppers which are numerous by second spraying time.
