I British Weapons Chief To Visit U.S. London (U.R) British atomic weapons chief Sir William Pen ney will accompany Defense Minister Duncan Sandys to Washington this week end for vital talks on Britain s revised military program, it was re ported today. The Atomic Energy Authority confirmed Penney hsa been added to the high-powered dele gation. Reports said he will strengthen Britain's hand in bar gaining atomic know-how for American missiles. Britain, faced with a financial problem created by its ill-fated attack on Egypt, plans a drastic cut in military expenses by bas ing its defense on guided mis siles rather than conventional fighter planes and bombers. Sources said this will permit heavy cuts in the standing army, the navy and the air force. The reappraisal ordered by Prime Minister Harold Macmil lan may delay Britain's defense budget this year by as much as three months. mmm u?'1' 1 By I. V. DURUNO (Distributed by King Features Syndicate, Inc.) Is It proper to use the word female" in reference to women? Many women have objected to it One leading battler against the practice was the brilliant editor, Sara Josepha Hale, who said, "Female should be used for ani mals. For humans, woman or lady." Passing By Ann S o t h e r n, extremely clever and entertaining comed ienne. She also sings well when given a chance. Ann, whose real name is Hariette Lake, was born in Valley City. N.D. I tried to find that town on the map but failed. I'll try again with a mag nifying glass. Ann's television program is one of my "musts." It is an airwave rarity in that it is consistently good. Of the other few programs of which the same can be said are "I Love Lucy," "Groucho" and "M-e e t The Press." If you rate some other programs in this class let me know about them. I can use a few more "musts" on. my tele vision viewing schedule. Numerology Although numerology is sub jected to much ridicule quite a few celebrated people attribute their success to a belief in it. As for example, Gabrielle Chanel, who was told by a numerologist that her lucky number was five. So Gabrielle gave one of her products that number and gain ed fame and fortune. Horses and Women Stockings for women were or iginated in the reign of Elizabeth I of England. They were silk stockings. I can't recall exactly when women stopped wearing silk stockings and began featur ing nylons. How about you? I don't even remember whether or not silk stockings used to have runs. Asking Queries from clients. Q. What was known as a "freak act" in vaudeville? A. It was a type of act originated by Willie Ham merstein of the Victoria Music Hall, Manhattan. Usually people who had figured in sensational incidents, and, in consequence, had received much newspaper publicity. As for example, the so called "Shooting Show Girls" who were a couple of chorines who had figured in the shooting of a millionaire. Other vaude ville acts in the category being discussed were "Peaches" Brown ing, Evelyn Nesbit, "Prince" Mike Romarof and Aimee Sem ple McPher.son. The first three named didn't do so badly at the box office but the glamourous West Coast evangelist, who play ed a week at the Capitol Thea tre, New York, was a dismal flop. The theatre lost 52,000 on the week. Sidelights John Gutenberg, who over 500 years ago printed the first Bible from moveable type, was a Cath olic.

Women born under Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) are usually good companions, intensely affectionate when pro perly inspired, have good style sense but are rarely good cooks. Or so say the stargazers.
