Return to Gettysburg Farm
Is Best Present for Mamie
By PATRICIA WIGGINS
United Presi Correspondent
Washington 0J.R) One of
the nicest presents Mrs. Dwight
Eisenhower could have on her
59th birthday today was her re
turn to her home in Gettysburg.
The first lady has made no
bones about the' fact that her
heart has been at Gettysburg
since the Eisenhower's farm
residence there became their
first real home in 39 years of
married life.
But, more important, the trip
home marked 'another step for
ward in the President's road to
recovery.
Press Secretary James C. Hag-
ertv Saturday described the
November "Issue
Of Publication
Creates Interest
"A Message to Altrusa," by
General Carlos P. Romulo was
read at a meeting of Medfora
Altrusa club held last week at
the home of Mrs. Maisie Daily.
The article on "what all free
women should know" opens the
November issue of the magazine
of Altrusa International wnicn
is named the "Spotlight on Asia"
issue.
The article was read by Mrs.
Edith Baker, international rela
tions chairman of the group,
who stated that the club has
ordered a number of extra
copies to be distributed to other
interested groups and for local
libraries. The Chicago Council
of Foreign Relations has named
the issue "pamphlet of the
month."
Miss Lotus Eaton, vice-presi
dent, presided at the meeting
in place of Mrs. Maude Cod
ding, president, who was in San
Francisco on business.
The vocational grant commit
tee, which met Tuesday evening
at the home of the chairman,
Mrs. Enid Rankin, reported that
letters announcing the voca
tional training grant of $250 had
been sent to churches, clubs,
PTA groups and the county
Grange units asking their as
sistance in finding a woman who
needed training or to re-fresh
former skills in order to gain
employment.
Applications for this grant
can be obtained by calling or
writing any member of the club,
the president, Mrs. Codding, or
Mrs. Rankin at 18 Richmond
avenue, before December 1. The
club is offering this grant in
the fall instead of the spring
in order that the recipient can
start training the first part of
the year 1956 when colleges and
business schools begin their sec
ond semester. Miss Eaton, sec
retary of the Oregon State
Board of Nursing, stated that
another school for practical
nursing would be starting in
Coos Bay very soon, there being
only one now in southern Ore
gon, this being at the Oregon
Technical Institute at Klamath
Falls.
A social time followed the
meeting and refreshments were
served by Mrs. Daly and Mrs.
Rankin. Guests for the evening
were Mrs. Mabelle King of
Santa Ana, Calif., Mrs. Carl
Beebe, Mrs. Frank Morgan, Mrs.
D. W. Robertson and Miss Anna
May of Medford. Mrs. King has
been spending a few weeks with
her daughter, Mrs. William
Frake and family.

farm as the apple of Mr. Eisen
hower's eye. He could well have
said the same for the first
lady's feeling about the farm
house.
Presents for House
Because of her love for the
handsome redecorated home and
its 189 rolling acres, it was in
evitable that some of the pres
ents she got today would be
"something for the house."
Her husband, family and
friends on other recent gift-giv
ing occasions have chosen such
items as fireplace tools and
mantles for the farmhouse which
were received with delight.
Sen. George Bender (R-O.),
entered into the spirit of the day
by sending as his birthday tok
en a box full of assorted gay
gloves designed for amateur
gardners' wear.
In Denver last month, Mrs.
Eisenhower was reported "anx
ious" to get back to the farm.
She wrote friends she hoped the
President soon would be able
to get in some "front porch
farming" from the Gettysburg
retreat.
Vigorous Social Season
Last spring, when Mrs. Eis
enhower went up to Gettysburg
to rest from a vigorous social
season at the White House, she
stayed on to supervise final re
decorating plans on the farm
house almost steadily until she
left for Denver.
Perhaps one of the reasons she
likes the farm so is the way her
Gettysburg neighbors treat her
on occasional shopping trips to
town just like any other citi
zen. In Washington her trip to a
store starts a mob scene.
Besides being back home
with a much-improved husband.
Mrs. Eisenhower could be happy
for another reason she does
not look her 59 years.
With three strenuous years as
White House hostess behind her,
and despite her trying vigil at
Denver where she was report
ed to have lost 14 pounds Mrs.
Eisenhower today looks just like
the smiling, cheerful woman
who waved at crowds from the
rear of campaign trains in 1952.

I'm tickled pink with the smart
way my Carol handles her house
work. Take wood floors for instance.
Most gals complain about all that
scrubbing and waxing. But not my
Carol! She cleans and waxes them
in one easy operation with Bruce
Cleaning Wax. It takes her half the
time and a lot less elbow grease. And
've yet to have a guest who hasn't
commented on our beautiful wood
floors. My Carol and her Bruce
Cleaning Wax really make easy work
of a hard job. I'm mighty pleased
with both of them.
P.S. For lighter
waxing on linoleum
and wood, Carol uses
Bruce Floor Cleaner.

Hollywood (U,R) Oscar en
trants are at the starting post
today, and " the 1956 Academy
?r$r Awards race
Jfl-" i shapes ud to
be a battle to
the last eye
1 a s h between
two tempestu-
4 u u 5 star a
Italy's Anna
Magnani and
Hollywood's
Susan Hay-
Aline Mosbr ward.
By now the Hollywood film
studios top-grade 1955 contribu
tions to the world's screens have
been unveiled. Although motion
picture industry workers won't
begin.voting on the nomination
until January, the armchair cin
ema experts already are picking
the winners.
Magnani Probable
The dark-eyed Magnani, a
heavy woman with straight
black hair yet with a deep beau
ty that surpasses Hollywood
standards, seems a sure-fire
nominee for her Iiery, one
woman movie, "The Rose Tat
too."
Susan also apparently has a
nomination under her shapely
arm for her emotional portrayal
of a tragic drunk in "I'll Cry To
morrow." She once won a nomi
nation for another alcoholic
role, in "Smash-Up."
The male race includes many
more top entries, the ladies hav
ing come out on the short end
of the good roles this year. But
the two top contenders probably
will be the late James Dean for
East of Eden" and James Cag-
ney in Love Me or Leave Me.
Eleanor Parker of "Interrupt
ed Melody," Julie Harris of "I
Am a Camera" and Bette Davis
of "The Virgin Queen" also are
likely to be nominated for the
world's top film acting honor.
Katharine Hepburn is another
favorite for "Summertime.
. The other three nominees for
the best male acting perform
ance of 1955 may be Fredric
March of "The Desperate
Hours," Henry Fonda of "Mister
Roberts" and Ernest Borgnine
of "Marty."
But some voters are just as
excited about Burt Lancaster in
"The Rose Tattoo," Arthur Ken
nedy in "Trial," Spencer Tracy
in "Bad Day at Black Rock,"
Tom Ewell in "The Seven Year
Itch" and Jack Palance in "The
Big Knife."
Best Picture
The best picture race might
be fought out among "East of
