EIGWT MZDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Wednesday, May 22, 1937 Liquor Revenue Bill Gets Final Approval Continued from Page 1) Passing with only three nega tives votes was a bill changing distribution of liquor revenues to cities from 5 to 10 per cent. Cities had asked for 15 per cent. The bill goes to the gover nor. Senate bill 483 exempting up to $500 of state prison inmates' money from garnishment on their release failed to pass by a narrow margin. Other major legislation that had to wait until the final hours of the session for passage in cluded two civil rights bills which were re-passed by the House and sent to the governor when Senate amendments were accepted. House bill 646 extends civil rights protection to trailer camps and House bill 647 ex tends civil rights to housing projects built with federal funds in whole or in part. Removed from the trailer camp bill was a provision ex tending civil rights to personal services' such as barber shops, while the Senate also amended HB647 so that only projects of five or more units would be covered. House Speaker Dooley ap pointed Reps. Robert Duncan, SEATTLE Plus tax 2320 UJESTCORST untunes Medford Democrat, Allen Tom, Rufus Republican and Glen Stadler, Eugene Democrat, to serve with him on the emergen cy board which appropriates money and passes on building plans while the legislature is not in session. Rep. Robert Steward, Keating Democrat, resigned as joint chairman of the Ways and Means committee and Dooley appointed vice chairman R. E. Schedeen, Gresham Democrat, to the post of chairman. As such he also will serve on the emer cy board. Along with Senate President Boyd Overhulse, Madras Demo crat, Senate emergency board members will be Sens. Walter Pearson and Alfred Corbett, Portland Democrats, and Fran cis Ziegler, Corvallis Republican. Revived in the last hours in the House was Senate joint reso lution 42 providing for an inter im study of qualifications of coroners. Before adjournment, the Sen ate recessed at 8:40 p.m. until 9:30 p.m. for dinner and the House followed with a recess until 11 p.m. to give conference committees a chance to work. The Senate passed House joint resolution 33, providing for ap pointment of a committee to se lect and place a marker on the Oregon coast in honor of Gov. Oswald West, who is credited with saving Oregon beaches for the public. , And it passed House joint res olution 39, providing for an in terim committee to study prob lems concerning Fish and Wild life laws and regulations. The Senate refused to concur with House amendments on sev eral measures not considered of major importance, and ad journed sine die without await ing the conference committee re ports, thus allowing the meas ures to die along with the 1957 session. President Overhulse said "it has been a privilege and an honor to serve as your president during this session. It has been a long, hard session; but so far as the chair is concerned, it has been a successful session." CLASPING HANDS ALL AROUND, noted USC alumni salute Pat Nixon, vice president's wife, after giving her the ' Asa V. Call Achievement Award for 1957. Left to right: Francis Tappan, Ail-American gridder; Rep. James Utt, Roger Johnson, and Sen. Thomas KucheL (International) Around Hollywood By ALINE MOSBY United Preji Correspondent NO WILD PETS Minneapolis (IP) Young wild animals should be left in the fields and forests and not adopted as pets, according to F. W. Johnson, supervisor of Min nesota's game wardens. Even though they appear to be lost, Johnson said, the chances are the mother is close by keeping a watchful eye on her offspring. Hollywood IP) Spring fash ion magazines suggest the la dies take up those 1910-ish knit swim s u i ts that cover the knees, but this fad brings a wail from Esther Wil liams. Hoi lywo- od's water ex pert is a dra matic a c tress Aline MosbT i n e s e a a ys. She's on NBC's "Video Theater" Thursday and she leaves next week for a heavy role in an Italian film. But the former all American girl on M G M still keeps one toe in the water. Esther, a. smart businesswo man, is busy selling Esther Wil liams swimming pools around the country. She's marketing a waterproof make-up and still swims a quarter of a mile daily in her pool at home. And just show her magazines with photo graphs of lanky models in swim suits that look like sweaters and her eyes ablaze. "The Bikini was as far as yoa could go to get clothes off. Now, the pendulum has swung too far in 'the other direction," said Esther. "Just because the fashion magazines think those extremely thin, bony, tall, flat chested models! The suits this year have high backs, longer legs and sleeves, and they look dreadful. "First, they flattened a wo man's front completely. And the' suits that have boned bras and stays are very uncomfortable," she continued. "I u n d erstand some women don't swim and just want to wear a well-engineered suit. Fine, but it's getting so you need a detective to find a swim suit that is comfortable to swim in! Its the Paris influence. "If you're an Audrey Hepburn type, with a peculiarly interest ing look, those styles are becom ing. But if you have a woman's body then they're ridiculous." Esther approves of a one-piece bathing suit, with low-cut back and low-cut front that allows freedom of action while splash ing in the waves. It also shows off Esther to good advantage, and she wore that style during those numerous mermaid movies she made at MGM. That type of suit she'll also wear on her TV drama Thursday- night and in. her Italian movie. Although Esther has taken up dramatic roles, the writers always manage to slip in a. swimming scene so she can reassure her public she still knows how to wear a swim suit. "Well, I'm making this switch gradually," she said. "In this Italian movie I play the mistress of .. married man. I never would have been able to do that dir ectly after leaving MGM. I was the ail-American girl there. It would have been too much of a shock." Appropriations For Two Armories Voted by House Salem (IP) Among bills passing the House and sent to the governor in the last minute rush for adjournment late Tuesday were two appropriating $250, 000 for construction of a Nation al Guard armory at Salem and $100,000 for planning a similar armory at Portland. Supporters of the Portland ar mory felt it would also be used for other purposes. Rep. William Grenfell Jr. Port land Democrat, said the U.S. Congress was working on an ap propriation for the armory and that the city would put up a $1.5 million bond issue for its share of the financing on the ballot. Three-Way Salem Fund Rep. Robert Elfstrom, Salem, Republican said another $347, 000 for the Salem armory would be appropriated by the federal government and some $300,000 by Salem and Marion county. Elfstrom said the auditorium type structure would seat 5,000 persons and could be used dur ing State Fair. Also approved was $35,000 to enable Attorney General Robert Y. Thornton to continue the Portland vice trial?. Thornton had asked for $100,000 to pay at torneys and hire new ones. How ever, Rep. Robert Duncan, Med ford Democrat, said thte $33,000 would enable Thornton to con tinue but would still require him to get more money from the emergency board and at the same time give a progress re port when he requested the money.

Shark Beats Woman Out of Marlin Record Bimini, British West Indies (W Mrs. Dorothea Dean of Palm Beach, might have had a world blue marlin record if a hungry shark had not bit off a big chunk of her catch.
