A NIchoK Worth of .T. Comment On This and TKat By HARMAN W. NICHOLS United Press Feature Writer Washington (U.PJ The Miss America people are getting mart. They have appointed a rrTt former Miss Am erica to some sort of job. This young lady would be B e b e Shopp. She was and is a dolly. And now she is with portfolio Biraui Nicboii as New Eng land director for the Miss A business. She ought to do a good job be cause she knows and has all the angles. First time I ever saw this love ly blonde from right outside Minneapolis she was fresh off the farm and had displayed a rare musical talent. The kid could play the vibraharp, which is next of kin to the xylophone, which has to be hammered prop erly if you want the right music to come out. Won Beauty Contest Bebe could hammer all right, as witness the fact that she wound up Miss America in 1948. All of which brings us up to the very present and one Nor man Reed, who handles the an nual contest for Miss Washing ton. Norman toils for radio station WWDC. His long-standing rule is that the contestants can nev er, ever be embellished with any phony padding like er, ah . . falsies. That's the rule in the big time at Atlantic City, too. But Nor man is fussing over something that the makers of bathing suits are offering to lady bathers ev erywhere built-in falsies. And he wonders if the new padding might not get into the Atlantic City beauty pageant. I can tell him he need never fret. Right therein the dressing room at Convention hall sits a regis tered nurse. Her job is to see to it that each contestant puts into a bathing suit only that with which nature endowed her. A Perfect 36 But getting back to Bebe. She embarrassed the pageant com mittee and her father when she got to France, as part of her tour as Miss America, and sounded off on "falsies." Lovely Bebe, herself a perfect 36, had told reporters over there, in effect, that she had never heard of the things. And what were they? People were shocked. The vi braharp almost went out of busi ness and Bebe came home, but not before she sounded off on the same subject a few more times. Bebe. still lovely, now is 26 years old. She is Mrs. Bayard D. Warming, of Arlintgon, Mass. I missed Bebe last year. She sent a wire saying that she was busy having a baby. Tuesday, May 22, 1958 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE FIVE Around Hollywood By ALINE MOSBY United Press Correspondent Hollywood (U.R) One thing missing from the movies are those sweet, innocent heroines with long hair and soulful eyes instead of so many sexy Marilyn Monroes. The lady who made that statement to day looked out of soulful eyes Aline Mosby he r s e 1 f and patted hair that once was red and long. Now- it's chic, short and ' graying. And Mae Marsh, that wistful ingenue of such great films as "Birth of a Na tion" and "Intolerance," is now bit player in modern movies. Today's actresses, she thinks, are either pixieish like Leslie Caron, sexy like M. Monroe or sophisticated like Grace Kelly. Miss Saint Mentioned She says the only star in Hol lywood today who is like Miss Marsh and Lillian and Dorothy Gish in their heyday, the early 1900s, is Eva Marie Saint. "Possibly there aren't parts written like that any more, but the actresses aren't like that, ei ther. Isn't it funny how they all try to be like Marilyn Monroe?" she smiled as we sat in her near by Hermosa Beach home. "I think there will be a re turn to the innocent-heroine type. But it will take a long time to get back from this sexy busi ness. Eva Marie Saint really is the first of that type since Janet Gaynor." Too many Marilyns hve hurt young girls of America, she added. Innocent Type Needed "It would help the children a great deal if the sweet innocent type would return," she said. "It's pathetic today how they all get bosom conscious, even my 12-year-old granddaughter. Young people think sex appeal is all they need td attract a man." When Miss Marsh was a big star, her director, D. W. Grif fith, "wouldn't let us be sophis ticated." "We were told to be reserved, ladylike, kind, gentle and polite and never to raise our voices," she said. Miss Marsh still is married to her first husband who was a publicist for one of her films. They have three children and six grandchildren. Measles Postpones Korea Orphans' Trip Tokyo (U.R) Sixteen tiny Korean orphans were quaran tined today for measles, delaying a journey to their new parents in Hawaii and America for at least three weeks. Two physicians diagnosed that a little girl, who lay listlessly in her crib at a downtown Tokyo hotel, had measles and that pos sibly two other children also were coming down with the dis ease. One of the children quaran tined was bright-eyed Lee En Ai, 3V4, who was adopted by Holly wood cowboy movie star Roy Rogers and his wife, Dale Evans. The children were born to Korean mothers and GI fathers who abandoned them. They arrived in Tokyo from Seoul Monday and were sched uled to leave tonight for home. Dr. Robert Pierce, President of the adoption sponsoring World Vision Organization, is looking for a hospital to house his small charges Until they can leave Japan. mmwi pot HOT LA mi Enjoy this historic favorite, now available in a milder, lower-Priced 86 Proof bottling as a companion to the renowned 100 Proof Bond. 86 IROOF jiii Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey $010 USO Opt.
