Tuesday. March 26, 1957 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE THREE cans in the 19:i6-39 Spanish Civil War but it was not until recent years that Spaniards heard talk of restoring the crown. Don Juan, six feet three inches, youthlul looking at 44, lives with his family in a two story home at the Portuguese resort of Estoril. He speaks flaw less English and receives a steady stream of visitors, news men who ask him questions and Spanish monarchists who ad dress him as "your majesty." He suffered an acute personal trag edy last year when his younger son, Alfonso, was killed acci dentally while cleaning a gun Don Juan, navy trained and archy, refused to let this delay the training of his elder son, Juan Carlos, at the Spanish Zaragoza Military Academy. Af ter the funeial of his brother, Juan Carlos went back to his military duties. Son Quiet, Bookish Tall like his father, fair haired and good looking, Juan Carlos takes extra lessons at the acad emy in statesmanship and polit ical history. He has made no ma jor public appearances in Spain so far but last year toured fac tories and met a cross section of people. He spends all of his holidays with his family and generally is rpgarded as a quiet youth whom the tutors keep grooved in his books. Franco has preached publicly in the past that a monarchy is the form of government best suited to Spain, but has warned that it must be a modern mon archy, dissociated from the courts of the past and respectful of the plans of the Falangist po litical party. ' Observers believe that if Fran co had to make a quick decision, Don Juan would get the nod be cause of his .on's youth. But if the decision, as seems likely, is drawn out, Juan Carlos, care fully trained and remote from association with past courts, is the kind of "new look" monarch Franco might choose. As Spain Believed Heading for Monarchy Madrid, Spain (U.R) A father ernment shakeup was a step in this direction. and son are waiting in the wings for a call which wiuld make one of them King of Spain. o The names of both Don Juan and his 19-year-old son, Juan Many responsible Spaniards Carlos, figures in any restora tion of the throne which was abolished by the Republican gov ernment in 1953 with the ban are convinced that oenerans simo Francisco Franco, 20 years O Spain's chief of state, is steer ing the nation gradually toward ishment of King Alfonso XIII, restoration of the monarchy.

Around Hollywood By ALINE MOSBY Hollywood U.R) Oscar time in Hollywood means a crisis a day, and today's is the "wardrobe worry" keeping those beautiful actress n o m- inees out of plunging neck lines and hoop skirts. M o v ietown is in a general flurry over W e d n e s day night's 29th an. Aiin Mosby nual Academy Awards. The Academy of Mo tion Picture Arts and Sciences even assigned designer Edith Head, a six-time Oscar winner and double nominee this year herself, to ride herd on the movie stars' gowns. Miss Head must see to it that the female nominees and pre senters look presentable on the big televised event. One rule No plunging necklines. NBC will have a wardrobe girl backstage with lace to fill in any wide open spaces. Faces. Not Anatomies "We must be sure the audi ence looks at the girl's face and not her anatomy," Miss Head explained today in her Para mount Studio office. "I also ask the stars not to wear costumes that look like a revival of 'Gone With The Wind.' Some actresses figure the bigger the dress, the better. One year a star wore a hoop skirt and she had to be helped up the steps to the stage! "The stars must wear dresses that are navigable. They must be able to walk gracefully with out cumbersome trains or too tight skirts. One year an actress slithered onto the stage in tight dress and got a laugh. We can't have that happen again. Deborah Kerr, Dorothy Ma lone, Mercedes McCambridge, Carroll Baker and other nom inees also are warned by Miss Head not to bare their backs to the world. A covered back the designer rules, looks better when the nominee is hurrying down the aisle of the Pantages theater to collect her Oscar. "The backward view is as im portant as the front view," she explained. Last year a star click-clacked her way across the stage in back less pumps, sounding, as Miss Head says, "like the charge of the light brigade." Now the nom inees are asked to wear shoes that stay on their feet. No Morticians' Wear They're also told not to wear black, or, with the men in black the event would look like a mor ticians' convention. The gowns must be full length (a new rule this year) and minus glitter or two-tone colors that make them appear gaudy on television. A full-skirted gown in a pastel color is ideal. Miss Head says. Some stars break the rules and create a sensation. One year the actresses dutiful ly showed up in fluffy pastels But Marlene Dietrich, not even a nominee but a presentor, stole the show in a slinky black tight dress slit to the knee. Another year Bette Davis won the most notice in an "illegal" black sheath dress plus a strange tur ban to hide her head,- shaved for a movie role. "Well, they are great stars who can make their own rules," admitted Miss Head. ' THE D.A. SWOONED Los Angeles (U.R) The dis trict attorney giggled, blushed and swooned all at the same time Tuesday -upon meeting Frank Sinatra when the crooner appeared to testify before the county grand jury about the cele brated "wrong door" raid. "Oh, gee, gosh!" squealed the district attorney high school student Carol McQuown, who was hon orary D.A. in observance of Girls Day. Items You No Lonrer Need For Quick Cash Use MaU Incuse A ant Ads Women Shouldn't Drink in Excess, Doctor Contends Los Angeles (U.R) Women shouldn't drink to excess if for no other reason than because they can't stand the effects of alcohol as well as men. That's the contention of Dr. Albert M. Snell of the Palto Alto, Calif., Medical Clinic and Dr. Cecil J. Watson of the University of Minnesota. Although women withstand most diseases better than men, the doctors said in an interview here, females Bet cirrohosis of the liver earlier than men, and have less chance of being saved, from the disease. Still a Mystery ' Just why that is so is still as much of a mystery as why non drinking women suffer from cir rhosis more than non-drinking men, the doctors said. They said that cirrhosis, a har dening and shrinking of the liver, is increasing in the United States with California leading the nation in the numbers of deaths from the "disease. "The rate is low in rural pop ulations where people have to work hard to make a living and have less time and opportunity to drink," Dr. Watson said. San Francisco leads all the cities in California in the number of deaths attributed to cirrhosis and alcoholism, the doctors said. Standard Elects Kendrick to Oliice K. W.
