(International) Around Hollywood r I 'X- A By ALINI MOSBY Hollywood (IB Shirley Jones, the voluptuous singing star of "Oklahoma" is back in the movies but in name only. The rest of Shirley is a shock to ny vie fans who re member h t r in the musical classic. The apple - cheek- Aline Mosby ed miss has slimmed down to a sleek, more grown-up actress with a short chick hair-do and whistleable figure. "I just decided I should lose weight," explained Shirley, who was wearing the shortest shorts in history today to keep cool on her movie set. 'I looked a little too heavy in 'Carousel' and 'Oklahoma. I thought it would give me more scope if I were thinner." Shirley has been busy on TV but has not been assigned a role by her studio, 20th Century Fox, since her second movie, "Carou sel." She confessed having a Renoir-type figure is "limiting" when it comes to roles. Her first move was to shed 10 pounds by cutting out desserts and starches. Next she trimmed her long blonde curies to an Italian hair-do, lightened her eyebrows and added make-up. Her wardrobe change to in clude clinging sheath dresses. She also got married a year go to singer Jack Cassidy, and she thinks "naturally, that ma tured me." . The first result of the new Shirley Jones came when pro ducer Milo Frank spotted her singing in a TV Cole Porter spec tacular last season and gave her a "Playhouse 90" script to read. T almost passed out when I read it," the fresh-faced Shirley said. "I told him 'I couldn't be hap pier to play the role of an alco holic in 'The Big Slide.' I never dreamed anyone would consider that part for me. There was a wonderful reaction from my performance. It opened many other doors." q Now Shirley is back ii? films, co-starring with Pat Boone in "April Love." They've tacked on a false pony tail hairpiece and made her a farm girl but at least she gets to wear tight blue jeans and do a strip teajp into a shower bath during one musi cal number. It's her first film job in modern dress. "Most fans and even some friends don't recognize me these days when they see me on the street," she said. "I'd love to get the part now of a sexy other woman or villainness."

Henry D. her boss. Linda D. My wife adores He's really jealous. Henry D. My wife and I are in our" early 20's and have been married less than a year. I guess we are going through the, usual problems of adjust ment or something, but we cer tainly aren't as happy as we had hoped. One of the main problems is my ife's adoration of her boss. This, may sound silly, but it has gotten to the point where I can't take' it. Linda has worked for this man since her graduation from high school sand I believe she'd happily lay down her life for him. Certainly, she'd lay down mine. Every day she comes home with stories about the wonder- Copper Prices Cut Jo Pep Up Demand New York (IP) Two big copper companies, Phelps Cop per Corp. and Kennecott Copper Corp..

MAIN Graham Gives Plan On Juvenile Crime New York W Billy Gra ham outlined plans Tuesday night to help combat the recent outbreak of teen-age killings and violence in New York. "Christ is the only answer to this great problem facing police and social workers," the 38-year-old evangelist said. Graham said he would devote all six of his Madison Square Garden sermons next week to "New York's No. 1 problem,'' combating violence by t e e nJ gangs. "We're contacting gang leaders and their members and many of them are coming here next week," Graham said. The leaders of these gangs, which have an estimated total membership of about 8,000 youths, will be invited to attend Graham's meetings next week "just to see what it's like," Gra ham said. Divorce Denied; Too Many Love Letters Jersey City, N. J. (IP) Mrs. Louise F. Pohabel, 29, was de nied a divorce from her convict husband Tuesday because of 58 love letters. Mrs. Pohabel, of Jersey City, sought the decree before Super ior Court Judge Barnard W. Vogel. Her husband, Lawrence, 33, a convicted forger, is an in mate in the state prison at Tren ton. Vogel noted that some of the letters Mrs. Pohabel had sent to her husband since he was sen tenced in 1951 were sighed with lipstick smears. Mrs. Pohabel testified that she wrote the letters because she was afraid of what would happen if she tried to end her marriage. Voegel denied the divorce "be cause your 58 letters to him are more eloquent than all your tes timony against your husband." Eisenhower Lauded For Oil Import Cut Dallas, Tex. (IP Representa tives of 18 oil producing groups lauded President Eisenhower's call for voluntary reduction of oil imports but cautioned Mon day further action may be neces sary. The state and national associa tions, from nearly every oil pro ducing state in the nation, met all day in Dallas discussing the "oil import problem." A joint statement issued after the meeting said the "problem of excessive- oil imports is now fully recognized . by both Con gress and the executive branch of the federal government." BOOK PUBLISHER DIES New York HP) Arnold H. Munk, 69. president of the Piatt & Munk Co., Inc., book publish ers specializing in children's books, died Tuesday of a heart attack. Munich. Germany TPi Dr. Heinrich Wieland, 90, chemist, won the Nobel Prize in 1927 for his research on bile acids, died Monday after a long illness. ful things he has said and done. I'm not the jealous sort, but I feel she looks at" me with con tempt for not being like him. I'm fed up and I want her to quit her job. Linda D. Henry says he's not the jealous sort, but I real ly think he believes I'm in love with my boss. This is ridiculous because he is a man in his 60's. I'm not the only one who feels that way about this man. Every one who works for him, all his business associates, men and women are crazy about him. He is a. self-made man, kind, gen erous, thoughtful and yet he can be very firm when necessary. When I came into this office, I was just a silly kid. He taught me everything I know, never losing patience with me. Now I hold a responsible job with many girls working under me. I love my work and I' love the daily contact with such a fine person as my boss and I wouldn't quit for anything but a family. Henry should learn to be more like my boss. e The Council Poor Henry! This is the worst kind of compe tition. He is forced to try to measure up to a man with a lifetime of achievement behind him and who presents only a formal face to Linda. His com plaint is not at all "silly." 1 Linda should recognize she is whittling down her husband's ego and undermining her mar riage with' this obsession about her boss. He may be the "fine person" she says he is, but she should know that her image of him is very one-sided. She does not know this man in his home life, in his moods and irritabili ties. She doesn't know his per sonal idiosyncrasies and bad habits, which may be carefully concealed. She did not know him in his youth when he had little authority, made mistakes and had failures. She knows nothing about his early married life, when he was a young man like Henry. There is a strong possibility this boss would not be all Linda believes him to be today if he had a wife like herself. Few men could emerge unscathed from so unsatisfactory a marital re lationship. Linda has set her boss up as an ideal father figure, second only to God in goodness and power. She needs to grow out of this little-girl worship of this man if her marriage is to sur vive. It may help her to take a new job, but that would not necessarily solve everything. She could take her idealized ver sion of this boss with her where ever she goes. She must make her own mental changes that will enable her to see this man as an ordinary human, perhaps better in some ways than most but certainly far from per fect (Copyright 1957.

Since the showing of the film titled "A Lust For Life," based on the biography of Vincent Van Gogh, the prices paid for Jhat artist's works have enjoyed sen sational increases. Recently the Van Gogh painting, The Fac tories at Clichy, sold for S87.000. It was purchased in Berlin in 1928 for 35,000. Horses and Women What are the measurements of the ideal dress model? Accord ing to Norman Hartnell, dress maker to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth of Great Britain, the ideal model is five feet, nine inches in height and has the fol lowing measurements: Bust, 35; waist, 22 and hips, 35. These are the measurements of the top Hartnell model, Barbara Wim- bush who is a married woman with two children. She has' a son 11 and a daughter 13. Asking Queries from clients. Q. What baseball club has finished last the most times in the American League? I say Washington. A. Your decision has probably been influenced by the classic jest, "Washington, First in War, First in Peace, and last in the Ameri can League always." However, such is not the case. The Phila delphia Athletics finished last the most times in that league . Q. Has there ever been an earth quake in New York City? A. Not a serious one. However, around 1924 there was a slight rumble in New York and vicinity. I "was living at Forest-Hills Gardens, in the Borough of Queens, at the time and the earthquake though a trivial affair shook my bed quite a little. Remarkable Remark Jayne Mansfield, in discussing Mickey Hargitay, former "Mr. Universe" and her good friend, said, "I've got the man with the most wonderful body in the world. Mickey has a 52-mch chest and I measure 41. It makes dancing difficult." Among The Married How are you getting along with your mother-in-law? How is your wife getting along with her mother-in-law? They say one of the onajor causes of bat ties between mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law is a difference of opinion as to how a child should be reared. Speaking of child rearing, how would your wife have liked to have left her first baby completely in charge of its grandmother for the first year. That's what a British so cialite plans to do. "Newly born babies are so much trouble," says she. "And besides, . the baby's crying would annoy my husband who needs his sleep. Historical Note A hundred years ago any foreigner attempting to land in Japan was immediately be headed." So I note it said. That is not quiie right. Commodore Matthew Perry landed in Japan on July 14, 1853, and on March 31, 1854, negotiated a treaty with the Japanese government opening up trade with the United States. However, it is quite true that before the Perry treaty any foreigner landing in Japan had a good chance of being separated from his head. Rugged People As I recently mentioned, the great a n d durable ringman "Terrible Terry" McGovern was born in Johnstown, Pa. They really rear rugged people in that historic city.- The Hon. Hi ram G. Andrews of Johnstown, now 83 years old, is said to be the liveliest and most generally active member of the Pennsyl vania State Legislature. Who is the oldest member of your state legislature? I would be willing to give you five to one in stogies you don't know. I would give you three to one you don't even know who represents your dis trict in the legislature.
