As We Live
Train Husband to Assist
With Burden Of Housework
The person who wants and
expects others to wait on him
and be available for his every
whim makes slaves out of those
who live with him.
(Q) "Last June, I . married a
man of 29, six years my senior
and the only child of doting par
ents. His moth
er literally
worships the
ground he
walks on and
has been his
willing slave
ever since he
was born.
Now my hus
band expects
the same of
, ii I
f ' -a 1
Dr. Hisrlock
me. He drops his clothes on the
floor and expects me to hang
them up as his mother always
did. While I am getting break
fast, he will call me upstairs
half a dozen times to find his
socks, tie.HPr some other article
of clothing. While I am getting
dinner, he wants me to sit down
in the living room and 'keep
him company'. But, if his meal
isQiot ready on time, he accuses
me of being inefficient. After
dinner he $s annoyed if I leave
him alone while I clear off the
table and do the dishes.
L.H.B.
"I am expecting a baby this
winter and I don't see how I am
By ELIZABETH HURLOCK, PH.D.
going to manage everything if
I have to continue to wait on my
husband hand and foot, as he has
expected ever since we were
married."
(A) You simply cannot man
age a home and baby if you take
time out to amuse your husband
and wait on him as if he were
helpless. The day is not long
enough.
Now is the time to bring about
a reform, not after the baby ar
rives. Point out to your hus
band that a wife must follow a
schedule just as a businessman
must. Then show him your
schedule.
Point out, also, you have
enough work already without
having to pick up and find his
clothes for him. Start training
him to do these and other things
for himself. He is quite capable
if he will
If he wants you companion
ship and you should be glad he
does suggest he sit down in the
kitchen and chat with you when
you are preparing a meal or do
ing dishes. Then, gradually, ask
him to help you so you can be
free to sit down and give him
your individual attention.

Bronze Statue of
Chris! Planned on
Italian Mountain
Rome (U.P.) Dedicated to
world peace, a huge bronze stat
ue of Jesus Christ is planned for
erection on top of Monte Cavo,
an extinct crater of a volcano
overlooking Rome.
The statue wil be so large
that the right arm, raised in a
blessing to the world, will con
tain a chapel where several
hundred faithful may worship
within sight of the Eternal City.
The sacred monument will
measure 328 feet in height and
is claimed to be the largest in
the world. It will be twice as
high as the Statue, of Liberty
and will minimize .the famous
Christ of the Andes which
stands close to the border be
tween Chile and Argentina.
The site of the statue will be
on the spot where the Cartha-
genian general, H a n n l b al,
pitched his camp after routing
the Roman Legions during the
Second Punic War over 2,000
years ago.
Monte Cavo is 2,460 feet high
and 20 miles south of Rome. It
is close to Castelgandolfo, sum
mer residence of the Popes.
The projectors of the religious
monument belong to a group
called Association for Prosper
ity and Peace Among Peoples.
They point out that they are ab
solutely non-political.
The association, which in
cludes leading Italian professors,
doctors, lawyers and architects,
will appeal to colleagues and
faithful around the world to
collect the funds for the monu
ment which will cost several
million dollars. Rich Catholics
will be called upon for aid.
The president of the associa
tion is a well-known Roman law
yer, Giuseppe Rizzo. He hopes
that the Pope will inaugurate
the statue which will take sev
eral years to build. A small
model of the project already has
been approved by the association
and another larger test model
will be made before work ac
tually begins.
The 328-foot statue will stand
on a pedestal 137 feet high. In
comparison, the Statue of Liber
ty is 151 feet high on a 154-foot
pedestal.
The enormous figure, work of
the Roman sculptor, Vincenzo
Torre, will be of bronze with a
hollow interior divided into var
ious sections.
Some of the sections will con
tain galleries of religious works
of art, such as paintings, sculp
tures and mosaics. The gigantic
cross which Christ will hold in
his left hand will contain obser
vation galleries from which vis
itors will be able to see the Med
iterranean on clear days.
A number of powerful eleva
tors will run visitors from the
pedestal to the top of the statue
a total of 465 feet. The pedestal
of the monument will contain
reception halls, administration
offices, a motion picture theater,
a department for the mainten
ance of the statue, shops', stores
and a museum which will be
called the Museum of the Civil
ization of Peoples.
Urban Renewal Laws
In Wider Adoption
Chicago (U.R) Four states
have adopted urban redevelop
ment or urban renewal laws this
year,' making 36 states and five
territories that now have such
laws, the Public Administration
Clearing House reports.
The state legislatures of Kan
sas, Georgia, Oklahoma and No
Dakota passed laws allowing
public agencies to use the power
of eminent domain ;to acquire
blighted areas for re,-sale to pri
vate developers.
Kansas and Georgia corrected
unconstitutional or unworkable
provisions in previous laws, and
Oklahoma granted urban renew
al powers to cities over 225,000
population, thus limiting the ac
tion to Oklahoma City.
Enabling bills lost out this
year in Iowa, New Mexico, Tex
as, Utah, Vermont and Washing
ton. The other six states that
do not have such laws are Flor
ida, Idaho, Mississippi, Montana,
Nevada and Wyoming.
Tibetan Ghost Traps
At Stanford University
Stanford (U.R) Stanford
University possesses the first
complete collection of Tibetan
"ghost traps" known to have
been taken out of Asia.
The man who brought the col
lection to the university is Dr.
Frederic Spiegelberg, a profes
sor of Indian and Himalayan cul
ture. The traps in general resemble
TV antennae with multicolored
threads and tufts of wool criss
crossing on a wooden frame. In
Tibet the traps are mounted on
rooftops and are believed to en
snare dangerous ghosts.
Dr. Spiegelberg's set of 14
traps was made for him by the
Buddhist monks of the Enchay
Monastery in the Himalayas, un
der the guidance of the Rinzing
Lama. : .
Around Hollywood
By ALINE MOSBY
United Press Correspondent
Aline Mosby
Hollywood (U.R) The year's
vital statistics for 1955 life in
Hollywood are drawing to a
close and this
time ptmid and
the divorce
court fought
almost to a
draw.
Not one lav
ish w e d d i ng
kept the cater
ers and auto
graph h o u nds
busy in the
cinema city. But a few quiet
weddings and unscheduled elope
weddings and unscheduled
elopements kept romance from
being a total off-screen flop.
One of the year's biggest mar
riage stories came when Clark
Gable an Kay Spreckels eloped
in July. 'x
The bobby-soxers had to find
another young bachelor idol aft
er Rock Hudson wed the pretty
secretary of his agent, Phyllis
Gates.
Debbie, Eddie Drew Talk
After an on-off engagement
that had movie-goers either
yawning or anxious, Debbie
Reynolds and Eddie Fisher be
came man and wife in a subdued
ceremony at a New York resort.
And Yvonne De Carlo, one of
Hollywood's last bachelor girls,
finally said I do's with stunt
man Robert Morgan. Jan With
ers, Lucy Marlow, Colleen Mil
ler, Jarma Lewis, Sheree North
and Nancy Kelly were other
1955 brides.
Betty Hutton wed record ex
ecutive Alan Livington shortly
after she marched from a di
vorce court with a decree from
dance director Charles O'Cur-
ran. But other marriages were
splitting just as fast.
Jack "Dragnet" Webb put
down his badge to wed Dorothy
Towne in January. Last month
she saw her lawyers about a
separation. Rita Hayworth walk
ed out on husband No. 4, croon
er Dick Haymes.
Several Marriages End
Linda Christian' ended her
marriage to Tyrone Power and
took home a million-dollar set
tlement. Mrs. Victor Mature
cornered half that amount when
she was untied from her brawny
husband. Mrs. Sterling Hayden
and Mary Astor won divorces.
Both Edward G. Robinsons
Jr. and Sr. saw their marriages
falter, with the son's being dis
solved in divorce. Separations
were also admitted - by Gloria
Grahame and Cy Howard,: the
Dean Martins, Vivian Blaine,
Jean Peters and Aldo Ray and
Jeff Donnell.
Biggest News Saddest
But the biggest news in Hol
lywood's 1955 was the saddest
a record number of deaths
among younger members of the
film colony. James Dean, a new
24-year-old , star was killed in
the crash of his sports car.
Heart attacks claimed John
Hodiak and Carmen Miranda,
Robert Frances headed for star
dom after "The Caine Mutiny,"
lost his life in the crash of a
small airplane. The world was
saddened when beautiful Suzan
Ball died of cancer.
On the brighter side, babies
arrived for Pier Angeli, Jan
Sterling, Judy Garland, Eve Ma
rie Saint, Mrs. Robert Taylor,
the Kirk Douglases and the Guy
Madisons.
WRONG METHOD v. s
Orange, Conn. (U.R) When
police stopped Miss Mary M.
Thom, 22,, for speeding, they
learned her sports -car had no
speedometer. Miss Thom ex
plained she gauged her speed by
making mental calculations
based on the revolutions-per-minute
gauge but apparently
had miscalculated.
