Medford Schmidt, Una Plan To Visit in Idaho; Eye Montana Home Portland (U.R) Danny and Una Schmidt returned from a second honeymoon on the Ore gon coast yesterday and packed their bags to leave for Cour D'Alene, Ida., to visit friends. Schmidt, who was imprisoned by the Chinese Reds and return ed to find his wife married to another man, said he plans to leave Portland as soon as he gets a new car to visit friends in Idaho for a few days and then go on with his wife and small son to Washington, D.C. Real Long Honeymoon Schmidt's 20-year-old wife, Una, recently reconciled with her husband, said the trip east would be a "real long honey moon." The airman will report to Boiling Field near Washington for talks with Air Force intelli gence. As to future plans, the young airman said "when intelligence is through, I expect to be dis charged and probably will settle down in. Missoula, Mont." "I'm a real wild life bug," Schmidt said, "and of all the places to live I think Montana is the best." He said he would probably enroll in the Univer sity of Montana. Absorbed in Son Una, who left her, second hus band to return to Schmidt, had little to say. She seemed to be absorbed in taking care of her small son, whom Danny had nev er seen until he returned to the United States. ' When asked why he planned to settle in Montana, Schmidt said he was -tooking for a place between the east and west, neith er one of which he liked too well. "Of course,'! he added with a smile, "I have lived in a lot worse places." the neighborhood of 25,000,000 viewers, which, offhand, seems like a pretty nice neighborhood. Global Film Shooting Right now, camera crews are shooting all over the globe in preparation for the show, all of which will be on film. The kid die newsreel, for example, will feature such items as a boy bull fighter in Portugal, a boys' kite contest in Tokyo, a junior rodeo in Washington and a marble shooting contest in New York. For its explorer's club, viewers will be taken on a shark hunt, to a wild horse roundup and down in the drink with a skin diving family. . - There will be "painless" edu cational bits, too, dealing with workings of the human body, safety lessons and nature stud ies of everything from beavers to dinosaurs. Music, as in most Disney en terprises,, will play a large part in the club. Insiders are predict ing that two numbers, "I'm No Fool" and "The Mickey Mouse Mambo," will be sure hits. But perhaps the top contender for click status is a song that will be played every day on the show called "The Mickey Mouse Club March." Parents had better brace themselves for it. 'The Mouieketeers' As for talent, the chief mouse on the show will be a former Arthur Godfrey performer, Jim my Dodd. Dodd will sing, play something called the mousegui- tar, supervise ' mousekedances and offer mousekeriddles. He'll also ride herd on a group of 24 talented7 kids who'll sing and dance under the elegant handle, "The Mouseketeers." . The Mouseketeers, ranging in age from 5 to 14, figure to be the most envied kids in the na tion. They'll be a permanent troupe who'll cavort on the en tire second quarter hour of the show five days a week. The group will sport a special Mouseketeer uniform a short sleeved turtle neck sweater with their names on the front and the Mouseketeer insignia on the back. They'll also wear special Mickey Mouse felt caps with long ears and will award free caps to other talented small fry who appear on the show as guests. And according to Disney in siders, the dope has it that by late fall the mouse bonnets may make even Davy Crockett's coonskin old hat. . North Dakota ranks 9th among states in butter produc tion.

Write Box 5493D, Mail Tribune On The Side Sy E. V. CURLING (Distributed by King Features Syndicate, Inc.) This is the 25th anniversary of the introduction of air hostesses to this country's airlines. All air hostesses are bachelorettes. Once more I suggest to any of our bachelor readers seeking a Grade A matrimonial mate that he take a number of flying ma chine trips. That will bring him in contact with some very high grade wife material. However, the air queens are not easy to get. They are very exacting when considering marriage. Get It Right What is the origin of "Auld Lang Syne?"? Is it a version of an old Irish song? Was it sung to the accompaniment of a harp by itinerant poets .300 years be fore Robert Burns was born? There are indications such was the case. In any event, wander ing entertainers in the Wicklow Mountains in the early fifteenth century featured a song, the title of which, translated from the Gaelic, was "The Days of Old Long Since." And the theme of the song was that old acquaint ances should not be forgotten. That Band Rudy Vallee's original eight- man band was known as the Yale Collegians. Its theme song was the old Eli favorite titled "Down the Field." Rudy was the only Yale University graduate in the band. From the Yale Col legians the name was changed to the Yale men. , Then Yale Uni versity authorities entered 'ob jections. Bowing to these objec tions, Valee changed the name of his band to the Connecticut Yan kees. The inspiration for this change was the musical show "The Connecticut Yankee" : in which William Gaxton was starred. Please Not Have heard of a skilled auto mobile mechanic who is doing very well as an advisor to per sons about to buy used cars. For a $10 fee this mechanic gives the car the prospective purchas er is interested in a complete checkup. And then advises as to whether, in his opinion, it is a good buy. Incidentally, I owned automobiles for 15 years before I bought a new car. All my first cars were secondhand. Waitresses Do tips from customers take care of most of the cost of wait resses to restaurant owners? In this ' connection a California restaurateur says the "daily cost of a waitress" to a Los Angeles restaurant , owner is as follows: Cash (eight hours), $6.96; meals, $1.15; taxes and compensation insurance, 52 cents; health and welfare, 16 cents; vacation (two weeks), 27 cents; uniforms, 7V2 cents; laundering,' 12V4 cents. The total amount the restaurant owner has to pay- out daily for each waitress is therefore $9.26. Children's Hour ' When a kid how did you act in the barber's chair? How about your own youngsters? I was in the neighborhood tonsorial par lor the other day when a couple of youngsters were led to the chair by their mothers. One kid screamed and cried so much his mother gave up the idea of hav ing his hair clipped. The other lad, about - 6, stepped briskly, into trie chair and calmly said to the barber, "A haircut please Short on the back and sides. Only a little off the top." Morning Meal The Market Street Breakfast Club of San Francisco is a group of men who favor unusual morn ing meals. Mickey Curran, the highly popular journalist, a charter member of the club, has a different breakfast every morning. One of Mickey's recent morning meals consisted of . a Scotch highball, angels on horse back and shoo-fly pie. Hunter William F. Cody was only 21 when he contracted to furnish 4,000 buffaloes to be used for food for the employees ofthe Kansas Pacific Railway. That was where he acquired the nick name "Buffalo Bill." Before that he had been a rider for the Pony Express. Insofar ' as experience was concerned, kids became adults very early in life in those days.
