Maureen O'Hara Maintains Top
Publicity Glare at Libel Trial
Br VERNON SCOTT
United Press Hollywood Writer
Hollywood (IT) The brunt
of the publicity glare in the
Confidential trial thus far has
fallen mostly on one lone movie
lander auburn-haired Maureen
O'Hara.
It's almost as if the Irish-born
beauty were on trial herself.
Each day's testimony brings
forth some new facet of the
gtory "It Was the Hottest Show
in Town When Maureen O'Hara
Cuddled in Row 35."
Other players' names have
been speared briefly by the spot
light and then forgotten. But the
hazel-eyed colleen has been the
"star" of the proceedings.
She remains the center of a
controversy as to whether the
prosecution or defense will call
her to testify as to the truth or
falsity of the Confidential story.
She's Fighting Back
Unlike many celebrities caught
Morse Says Senators
'Scuttled' Dam Bill
Raleigh, N. C. tin Sen.
Wayne Morse (D-Ore.) has ac
cused two Democratic represen
tatives of Joining the Republi
cans to "scuttle" the bill author
izing a federal Hells Canyon
dam.
The charge brought an imme
diate denial from one of the two,
Rep. George A. Shuford (D-N.C).
Speaking here Tuesday night,
Morse said that Shuford and
Rep. James A. Haley (D-Fia.)
had joined in a "Republican
policy sell-out to private profi
teering." Morse spoke at a picnic meet
ing of the Tarheel Electric Mem
bership association, a group'
representing the state's rural
electric cooperatives.
Shuford and Haley were the
only Democrats voting to with
hold action on the Senate-passed
Hells Canyon bill when it came
before the House Interior com
mittee last month.
up in the case, Maureen is fight
ing back.
"I am ready and anxious to
testify that the story is not true,"
she blszed. "I was not in the
country and can prove it on
the night I was supposed to have
been in Grauman's theater."
Maureen, who celebrated her
37th birthday this week, became
an American citizen back in
1946.. .
She was born in Dublin, the
daughter of Charles and Mar
guerite FitzSimon, the eldest of
six children. She has three sisters
and two brothers.
Her first professional job
came at the age of 12 when she
appeared on a radio program.
By the time she was 14 Maureen
had gained considerable recogni
tion for her work in the famous
Burke Dramatic school.
As a Hollywood starlet in 1941
she divorced her first husband.
George Browne. She had left
him in England the aay alter
they were married.
Made Headlines Before
Two years ago the actress
made headlines when her second
husband, Will H. Price, accused
her of carrying on a romance
with Mexican businessman Enric
Parra.
Maureen won the court battle
when Price withdrew his accusa
tion, and she was permitted to

retain custody of their 13-year-
old daughter, Bronwyn.
Miss O'Hara refuses to express
an opinion of Confidential, say
ing only, "I feel disgusted, not
only as a movie personality but
as a private citizen.
"I want to say that I have in
structed my attorneys to accept
a subpoena from Confidential at
any time. I am certainly not hard
to serve."
Greta Anderson
Wins Channel Swim
In Dramatic Battle
Dover, England (IPI Greta
Andersen, of Denmark and
Long Beach, Calif., won the an
nual swimming race across the
English Channel Wednesday in a
dramatic battle with winds, tides
and Britain's Brenda Fisher.
Beating every man in the
race, Miss Andersen, a 1948
Olympics gold medal winner,
scrambled ashore at Eastware
Bay near Dover in an, official
time of 13 hours and 53 minutes
after leaving the French coast.
She finished two miles ahead
of the nearest man, Britain's
Ken Wray. Miss Fisher, who
had fought out a tremendous
battle with the Danish-born girl
for most of the day, still was
two and a half miles out in the
water, stymied by treacherous
currents on the Goodwin Sands.
Epic of Courage
Miss Andersen's victory was
an epic of courage in the face
of winds that whipped the chan
nel into choppy waves and
swirling currents that threat
ened to sweep her away from
her goaj in the closing stages of
the race.
Miss Fisher, who set a wom
en's race record of 12 hours and
42 minutes for the crossing in
1952, fought a tremendous duel
with the Danish girl for three
fourths of the distance. Close
behind was Wray. As Miss Fish
er tired, he swam into second
place.
When Miss Andersen, wife of
a Long Beach physical culturist,
landed, Wray still was two miles
from shore.
The annual $5,320 cross-channel
race was sponsored by Billy
Butlin, operator of British holi
day camps.
The Family Council
Editor's note: The Family Council consists of a Judge, a psychiatrist,
three clergymen, a newspaper editor, a women's editor and two writers. Each
article Is a summary of an actual report. The Family Council does not give
advice; it merely reports on problems that have been dealt with by
responsible agencies and counselors.
Mrs. T. Y. I failed as a
mother.
Loretta L. It's too late now.
i
Mrs. T. Y. I am a widow
with a son and daughter, both
in their 20's and both quite un
happy. I want to help them, but
they don't let me. I'm afraid
they have no feeling for me at
aU.
You see, my husband died
when both children were small
and I brooded a lot and did not
give them the kind of child
hood they should have had. I
was immersed in my own suf
fering and I was often short
tempered with them. I worked
and at the end of the day I used
to be too tired and impatient to
listen to their problems. I fail
ed as a mother and they do not
come to me with their problems
now.
Both of my children have
made unhappy marriages. My
daughter is already separated
from her husband and my son
is thinking about divorce. They
are both in need of money, but
won't accept even that from me.
Loretta L. It's true that our
childhood was quite unhappy,
but there is really nothing our
mother can do to make up for
it now. We feel she needs the
money she now has for herself
and we'll have to get along as

well as we can without that
kind of help.
, As for our marital problems,
my brother and I feel we can
get very little help from our
mother. We aren't in the habit
of discussing our intimate af
fairs with her.
My brother and I are both
sort of embarrassed by the way
Mother clucks over us and
takes our problems as a kind
of punishment on herself. For
myself, I feel rather optimistic
about the future until I talk
to Mother. Then I feel like a
hopeless failure, as though I'll
never be able to straighten out
my life. I know I needed more
guidance in my teens, but it's
too late now. .
,. The Council: Mrs. T. Y. shows
a great capacity for self-punishment.
As. a young woman, she
devoted herself to self-torture
over the death of her husband
and now she is doing the same
thing over her "failure" as a
mother. In both cases, she im
poses suffering on herself for
things that are past remedy.
However, Mrs. T. Y.'s short
comings as a mother were prob
ably not as serious as she be
lieves. Despite the fact that her
children are having serious dif
ficulties, they have an inde
pendent spirit that should help
them through.
Loretta shows she tends to
fall a bit too much into the
trap her mother sets, that of
blaming her problems on her
unhappy childhood. Her state
ments that "we aren't in the
habit of discussing our intimate
affairs with her" and "it's too
late now" reflect a good deal of
bitterness.
Loretta should recognize that,
whatever her mother's short
comings were, she cannot be
held wholly responsible for her
marital failure. Placing the
blame on her mother will pre
vent Loretta from seeing her
own errors and learning from
them.
Mrs. T.Y. is undoubtedly
wrong in her guilt-caused no
tion that her children have "no
feeling at all" for her. More
likely, they have more love for
her than they know how to
show. Instead of worrying over
them, prying into their affairs
and offering help, she should
try to show her own love by be
ing natural, cheerful and
straightforward with them.
When they see she is in a healthy
state of mind, they may start
opening up on their personal
problems of their own free
will.

Trapper Requested
For Coyote Killing
Yreka A delegation of Siski
you county rangers asked the
county board of supervisors
Tuesday to hire a trapper to
check killing of livestock by
coyotes in Butte, Scott and Shas
ta valleys.
It was estimated it would cost
about S6.000 per year- to supply
a trapper. The state recently re
moved its trapper from the
county because it and the coun
ty could not agree on sharing
responsibility.
A Fish and Wildlife Service
representative said his organiz
ation would supply a "federal
man" for six months if the coun
ty would supply a man for the
other six months each year.
Clarence M. Griswold, now
employed as a trapper by the
national government, has ten
dered his resignation. But he
said he would remain if hired by
the county as a trapper.
Mysterious
Of Mystery
By DOC QUIGG
Unieid Press Correspondent
Aboard Chinese Junk, East
River, New York Iff) Well,
break an egg over me and call
me Foo Yong. Things will never
be the same along the Yangtse.
The mysterious East is giving up
some of its mystery to the screw
ball West.
This little jewel of a junk was
handmade in Hong Kong by five
Chinese workmen, plus three old
ladies who sat holding the sails
between their toes while sewing
with their hands. You can get
one custom made for you for
$4,500.
But don't expect new models
every year. The basic design was
a going institution when Marco
Polo got to China, and the Chi
nese don't intend to change a
body style that has been draw
ing customers for thousands of
years.
The idea of importing and
selling junks to Americans as
"the sports car of the sailing
set" belongs to Mr. and .Mrs.
Charles Schreiber. They're dead
serious. Place your orders now.
The Schreibers, both 28, never
expected to be junk peddlers.
He's a syndicated record col
umnist. She's a publicist who has
touted sewing machines and
shirts but never before a junk.
They seem to be in love with
their new business.
Meet The Jaded Lady
The Jaded Lady is a junk of
the Seadragon class high
popped, overall length, 25 feet;
lateen-rigged foresail and main
sail; teak hull; fancy teak swim
ming ladder; 10 h.p. motor, foam
matress bunk that will comfort
ably sleep four orientals or three
occidentals, plus deck sleeping
space; one crazy 20-foot oar.
I was invited aboard by Co-
Captain Joanne Schreiber over

All the power boats on Long
Island Sound travel around us
in circles," she said, stirring a
circle with her forefinger. "They
just ruin us with their prop
wash. They holler 'Chop chop'
and 'Gung-ho.'
"You should have been here
yesterday. We served a drink
called a Jaded Lady bourbon,
chunk of lime, green mixer, and
passion fruit, served in a hurri
cane lamp. Terrific! This is a
character boat personality and
fun, plenty of space, a lazy man's
boat with everything done very
simply, no upkeep, no polishing,
a fine family craft. -All
The Time Puns
A photographer stuck his head
in the cabin and said: "This is
the sort of junk the department
of sanitation isn't interested in."
All the time puns," said Mrs.
Schreiber.
The boat does have its sports
car aspects. There's a mad, curl
ing, red-and-gold dragon on the
bow, with white-and-blue pop
ping eyes. Nailed to the front of
the forward mast is a brass cut
out of a little humaD foot, with
spreading toes. "Means Buddha
has been there and kicked the
boat good sailing luck," Mrs.
Schreiber explained, "had I had
the foot made myself. We're also
going to put eyes on the bow,
a Chinese tradition."
Satellites to Cross
South Africa First
Johannesburg Iff) Earth's
first artificial satellites .'to be
launched into space will cross
South Africa first during their
primary orbits. Final prepara
tions for a three-point non-stop
observation scheme are being
made.
Dr. Karl Henize, of the Smith
sonian Astrophysical Observa
tory, Washington, D. C, has ar
rived here for final talks with
the nation's top astronomers. He
leads a three-man team respon
sible for the world-wide obser
vation system.
The satellites, to be launched
during the Geophysical Year
starting next July, are small
aluminum spheres containing re
search instruments. They will be
fired from Patrick Air Base in
Florida and circle at 200 to 1,500
miles above the earth.
The orbs must be watched
continuously and accurately.
Three methods of observation
will be used at the posts at Pre
toria, Johannesburg and Cape
Town.
In other countries, special ra
dio stations will receive the sat
ellites' signals as they cross ov
erhead, and their actual course
will be traced by stationary
camera units.
Cucumber Growers Need
Automatic Harvester
East Lancing, Mich. Iff)
If you want to find an' easier
way to pick a peck of pickles
check with Michigan State Uni
versity. The school received a $12,000
grant from a cucumber-harvesting
group to do basic research
on a mechanical cucumber harv
ester. It seems cucumber growers
are finding it increasingly dif
ficult to obtain hand labor for
harvests.

Judge Keating Returns
From Wyoming
County Judge Rodney Keat
ing, has returned from a meet
ing of the Interstate Association
of Public lands commission in
Jackson, Wyo., last week end.
Keating was one of two dele
gates from Oregon who attend
ed the meeting. The other dele
gate was Frank Ashley of Doug
las county.
Discussed at the meeting was
the federal legislature regarding
federal and public lands that is
now before Congress.
On the stern. Jaded Lady is
lettered in yellow and "Sea
dragon, Hong Kong" in red.
There's a lot of Chinese letter
ing also, and nobody knows what
it says but my guess is: "Buddha
kicked here.".
