Reorganization of
FDIC To Be Asked
Washington CU.R5 Chairman
J. W. Fulbright said Saturday
he will ask the Senate Banking
committee to consider legislative
reorganization of the Federal De
posit Insurance Corp. In the
wake of the million-dollar check
scandal in Illinois.
The Arkansas Democrat pre
sided Friday as FDIC officials
told the committee about some
aspects of the Illinois case. The
senator was sharply critical of
the activties of the agency which
insures deposits in more than
13.000 of the nation's banks.
Fulbright said disposed Illin
ois State Auditor Orville E.
Hodges set up a "lucrative deal"
for himself and his associates
"by using the FDIC for his own
purposes."
Hodge was a central figure in
tiie scandal and is serving a 12
to 15 year sentence for cashing
more than SI million worth of
spurious state checks or war
rants. Fulbright said that "all too
often we have to wait until a
scandal arises" to make leg
islative reforms. He said h?
hopes Congress can "take ad
vantage" of the Illinois case to
make needed improvements in
the FDIC organization.

Do you follow any particular
diet? If so, do you think it is
an aid to longevity? Anyway,
what follows is the diet of a
man who could have most any
thing he wanted to eat at no
cost to himself. That is, it is the
diet of Albert Basser, head
waiter of the world famous
Maxim's of Paris. Monsieur Bas
ser, who is 74. adheres to the
following: Breakfast hot water
and lemon juice. Dinner grape
fruit half, mutton or beef (no
sauce), vegetable salad, cheese,
black coffee. Supper soup, cold
meat, salad, pineapple.
Get it Bight
Note it claimed that General
Sherman never said. "War is
Hell." He certainly did. In an
address at the G.A.R. conven
tion at Columbus, Ohio. Aug.
11, 1880. Sherman said. "There
is many a boy here today who
looks on war as all glory, but.
boys, it is all hell. You can bear
this warning voice to genera
tions yet to come. I look upon
war with horror."
Twins
No doubt you know that twins
don't always have the same
birthday. One could be born to
day, and the other tomorrow. In
England recently twins were
born 12 days apart. I once heard
of twins who were born seven
days apart and in different
cities!
Sidelights
Seven out of 10 phonograph
recordings are purchased by
teenagers. Keep that in mind if
you are considering going into
the recording business. Both the
policy and the name of the old
Larue restaurant in Paris have
been changed. It is now a quick
lunch cafe known as Queenie's.'
Hourglass Figure
Kathy Barr is referred to as
"The Girl With the Hourglass
Chassis." Kathy's measurements
are 38-24-36. To have an "Hour
glass Figure" a woman should
have a waist measuring 21
inches or less. So, if Kathy
wants to live up to her name,
she will have to reduce a little.
Throwing a handful of confetti
into the air and picking it up
piece by piece is a good exer
cise for waist measurement reduction.
Asking
Queries from clients. Q. Whatj
was the .name of the comedienne i
who some years ago sang "Gay j
Ninety" songs on the radio? A.
You are probably thinking of j
Beatrice Kay. Q. Are you famil-.

Up Mother Brown"? A. Ys, !
sir. It is a British dance. 1 a .
ask Arthur and Kathyrn Mur-;
ray to do it for you on television
some time. Q. What wrestler
was known as "The Crying
Greek From Cripple Creek"?
A. It was George Zaharias, hus
band of "Babe" Didrikson Za
harias. George is originally
from Cripple Creek, Colo.
Pleasa Not
At the 1950 California State
Fair an International Cham
pagne contest was staged. New ;
York State champagne won the I
gold medal. The Californians ;
say their best brands of cham-j
pagne were not entered. How-,
ever, the result was as stated.
Drama
Dean Martin, the comedian,
wants to give the more seiious
drama a trial. And why not?
Many comedians have accom
plished much in that type of
play. As for examples, David
Warfield, Hal Skeely and James
Barton. I believe Jimmy Du
rante would do well in straight
drama.
Horses and Womtn
Do women want to be dom
inated by their husbands? Or
does the average wife want to
rule the roost? That is a ques
tion constantly discussed Ac
cording to our horses and wo
men experts, the average wife
welcomes a degree of domina
tion. She wants to have her say
in the management of the house
hold. But doesn't want the last
word. She wants a man who will
make decisions and take respon
sibility. If you are contemplat
ing matrimony, young fellow,
keep that in mind.
So They Say
Libra (Sept. 24-Oct. 23). Males
strive to chieve the reputation
of being well-dressed men. They
usually are well-dressed except
for a marked weakness for
very fancy neckwear. The man
who wrote the poem titled "Give
Me a Wild Tie, Brother" was
probably born under the sign of
Libra. Or so say the stargazers.
Practice Bomb Falls
Into Family Home
Newport, R.I. (U.R) A prac
tice bomb fell from a military
plane Saturday and caromed
through the roof, bedroom and
kitchen of a house before ending
up in the back yard.
There was no explosion and
all residents of the house were
away.
"A lucky thing, too," said Rob
ert J. Pingatore. owner of the
house. "Normally we'd have
been feeding the (two) kids
lunch in the kitchen." His wife
is a former Boston resident,
daughter of Mrs. Ida Barkowski.
Police said they believed the
plane involved was from Quon
set Point Naval Air Station, but
officers at Quonset could not
confirm this immediately.
Pingatore said he and his wife
were shopping when the plane
zoomed over this seaport town
en route to a practice bombing
range. The mark 76 bomb be
came dislodged and fell on a
trajectory into the house and
through it. Damage was extensive.

Daughter of TV
Star Killed in Wreck
Van Nuys, Calif. (U.R) San
dra J. Hayden, 15 -year -old
daughter of television star Jan
Clayton, was killed Saturday
when she crashed her mother's
car into another auto at an in
tersection. Police said the star's daugh
ter, who had only a driving
learner's permit, apparently
drove through a stop sign when
her car collided with an auto
driven by Lloyd Frerer Jr., 19,
who was injured.
Miss Hayden's father was for
mer cowboy star Russell Hay
den, who now is a television
actor and producer. Her mother
now is married to Robert V.'.
Lerner, son of the president of
a nationwide chain of dress
shops.
Miss Clayton collapsed when
she learned of her daughter's
death and was put to bed under
sedatives. Highway safety has
been one of her leading civic
interests. She was awarded a
plaque in June for helping to
promote highway safety.
Miss Clayton, after a success
ful career in New York musical
comedy, has been equally suc
cessful as Tommy Rettig's moth
er in the TV series, "Lassie."
Poles Facing Trial
For Part in Uprising
Warsaw, Poland (U.R) Fifty
eight persons accused of com
mitting various crimes during
the June workers' uprising in
Poznan will go on trial there
next week, it was announced
Saturday.
Prosecutor General Marian
Rybicki, in a statement publish
ed by the official news agency
Pap, said 96 others among the
323 arrested at the time of the
uprising are awaiting trial.
He said the number of pris
oners "has been reduced consid
erably in the course of investiga
tions" an apparent indication
that the other 169 persons ar
rested in June have been re
leased. Rybicki emphasized that the
persons still in prison are not
charged merely with taking part
in the "bread and freedom"
riots in Poznan, but are accused
of specific crimes.
