O Washington (U.R) The gov

as science can now make it.
He said the flow of vaccine
has been irregular up to now.
But he predicted that it will in

when the mass inoculation of
the nation's children is expected
to get into full swing again.
Confidence Asserted
In an informal conference
with, newsmen Thursday, the

Around Hollywood
By ALINE MOSBY
United Press Hollywood Writer
Hollywood (U.R) Helen
Haye's son, James MacArthur,
made his big-time acting debut
on television last night but
he confessed today he came close
to not getting the job.
Seventeen-year- old James'
lead on "Climax!" is a "second
chance" for him. Being the adopt
ed son of the famous actress, and
playwright Charles MacArthur,
he admitted, isn't a sure-fire
wedge into television.
"When I first read the part
they gave me that, 'Don't call
us, we'll call you, ", he grinned
as he sat in the quiet, nearly
bare rehearsal hall at CBS.
"And I'd thought I'd had the
part for sure. They had called
me to come into CBS in New
York to pose for publicity pic
tures for the show, and then do
a reading. I figured that read
ing was just some formality.
Lands Job
"After I went home they phon
ed and said, 'We don't want you.'
They didn't think I could handle
it. So I packed my bags to leave
for a visit with' some friends.
My mother said, 'That's the
breaks of show business.'
"Just before I left, they called
and asked me to fly to Calif
ornia to read for the part again
and work with the director.
Then I got the job."
James is a nice-looking senior
at Solebury prep school near
Philadelphia. Whether he'll fol
low in his mother's footsteps and
take up acting as a life career,
he hasn't decided.
"I'll eo to colleee first," he
said.
"It's better for kids just to be
natural and on their own, and
not get mixed up right away
in show business, anyway. It
looks so romantic, but it's real
ly a lot of hard work."
Acting Debut
Young James made his acting
deb'ut when he was eight during
a summer stock performance of
"The Corn Is Green." Last sum
mer he went with his mother to
another summer straw hat thea
ter. While she acted, he got a
job as chief of the parking lot.
Somerville, Mass. (U.R)
Texire Everett, 30, of Somerville
said "sorry" when he bumped
into a woman as he entered his
car in nearby Cambridge. He
was sorrier when he got home.
Everett discovered that his wal

'Exact Reasons' Not Given

He graduated to electrician and
later won a small role in "Life
With Father."
"I've read for a lot of other
parts I haven't gotten," he said.
"My mother never tried to get
me a job and I never tried to
get one through her.
"I was considered for this
'Climax:' role because I met the
producer, Martin Manulis, when
mother was doing a 'Best of
Broadway show at CBS. Later
he telephoned he had this 'Cli
max:' script and he remembered
how I looked."
Many an established star
pales at the thought of acting
on a live television show. But
neophyte MacArthur shrugged,
"I'm not scared because I don't
know anything about TV and
ignorance is bliss!"
Rabies in Wolf Which
Attacked Housewife
Lebanon, Mo. A wild animal
that attacked a young California
housewife definitely was af
flicted with rabies, a report from
the state laboratory showed to
day.
The animal of the type known
locally as a wolf attacked Mrs
Effie Lou Matthews, 25, Oxnard,
Calif., late Wednesday night, as
she was visiting with her hus
band's parents near Nebo, Mo.,
in the Ozark Mountains near
here.
She began taking Pasteur
treatments early yesterday be
cause she was severely bitten on
the face, most dangerous area
for rabid bites.
Dr. George Weeks, who is ad
ministering the painful shots,
said they would not affect her
pregnancy. The shots were ex
pected to take 10 to 14 days to
comnlete.
Mrs. Matthews was reported
in satisfactory condition.
Borrower of Book
Ruled Not Thief
Capetown, South Africa (U.R)
The South African Supreme
Court has ruled that a man is not
a thief when he borrows a book
and doesn't return it.
Acting Justice Bevers made
the ruling in a suit brought by a
man trying to recover one of his
books. He said, "If this is theft,
half the lawyers in town would
be thieves. I have on my shelf
a borrowed book that I have had

To Assure
Disease
polio to some children. But it
said four months of investiga
tion failed to reveal the "exact
reasons" for the presence of the
virus. No action against Cutter
was recommended.
The report suggested the prob
able cause of the incident was
the "failure" of safety tests and
the process by which the virus
in the vaccine was supposed to
be killed. It indicated this fail
ure could be traced to "funda
mental weaknesses" in the orig
inal safety standards prescribed
by the government.
These standards were over
hauled drastically May 26 and
are now considered adequate
The extra testing by the govern
ment, revealed officially by
Scheele, is viewed as an extra
guarantee.

Injured in Mishap
At Blind Corner
Terry Lee Ryan, 13, of route
two box 522, Medford, was in
the Osteopathic hospital this
morning with a badly sprained
knee after the bike he was rid
ing collided with a car yester
day afternoon.

driven by Dr. C. D. Lemery, 409
Ardmore ave., rounded the curve
going the opposite direction and
struck him.

way. Heitkamp then made a

inside lane.
Car Slows
Darrel Lewis Johnson, 25, of
330 North Holly st., was operat
ing the vehicle following Heit
kamp and slowed sufficiently to
avoid collision.
Following the second car was
Dahl's auto. The young driver
failed to see Johnson slowing in
time and rammed the middle
car. Both vehicles were heavily
damaged.
Dahl suffered a minor cut on
his forehead, police said.
