A friend of mine who es divorced told me she had dozens of propositions but no proposals. Betty T. Wrhat Genevieve Cys is partly true. Men have 3o respect for a divorcee and 3feem to expect her to have af fairs with them. What Gene vieve doesn't realize is that it's 3o better when you live with Jour family. I know because the propositions have already been (foming in for some time. I don't mean to offend Gene (yieve when I say It is really (fc,ful at her house. She can't 3jelp it, but what can you expect Jfhen there are three children gjnder 6 around the place? There always squalling and scream Inf and the house looks as though a hurricane hit it most of the time. I'm embarrassed when anyone calls for me there. I can't see I have anything to lose by striking out on my own. I'm a big girl now and should be able to handle those wolves. I long for peace and quiet and know of the perfect little apart ment for me. The Council Genevieve's iome doesn't sound like an ideal setting for a young woman bent on matrimony, but Betty is rath er hasty about striking out on her own. Despite her status as a divor cee, Betty is still a very young girl. She doesn't realize that the "propositions" which now come in will be a little more difficult to handle when she is alone. She may know how to manage some varieties of wolves, but is surely unfamaliar with others. More important, Betty still lacks understanding of her own nature and is probably somewhat shaky about her standards and mixed up about what she wants from the opposite sex. Some va rieties of wolf are quite clever at playing on the confusion and PROSPECT Lumber Company Opens Up Prospect The Ross Lumber company at Prospect resumed operation Monday.

Mental Health Association Gets United Crusade Funds (Editor's note: This is an other In a series of articles which describes agencies that receive funds through the ef forts of the United Medford Crusade.) The Mental Health association is one of the 25 agencies which will benefit in the United Med ford Crusade.

CIRCUIT COURT Ruby B Skinner vs. Howard G Skinner, divorce complaint. Wallace E. Long vs. Ann G. Long divorce complaint. " In a class by itself since 1830 & PROOF BdeotchWhjsky ScMeKelinj Co., New Yort The Hollywood Scene Bj; Hollywood (U" Movieland's 50th birthday party laid the biseest egg in history this week when the gold en jubilee 17 city tour was cancelled for lack of inter est by the movie stars themselves. For months the studios, producers and Vernon Scott q t h e r n i g n brass pianned the 20-day junket to rekindle interest in motion pictures. Everybody was in on it theater owners, publicity men, agents and moguls. Enthusiasm was lashed up to get a planeload of stars to visit such cities as New York, Chicago, St. Louis, Memorial Services Set For Circuit Court Memorial services will be held by the Jackson County Bar association at 10 a.m., Oct. 21 commemorating five lawyers who have died during the last two years, it was announced today. During the services in Judge H. K. Hanna's Circuit court room, resolutions pertaining to each of these men will be read and made a permanent part of the Cricuit Court records, it was explained. The resolutions have been adopted already by the Jackson County Bar Association. The ceremony will coincide with the opening of the new term of court. Those to be memoralized and the date of their deaths include: George Jackson, Oct. 18, 1955; Gus Newbury, Oct. 26, 1955; Tracy H. Crum, Nov. 26, 1956; Rawles Moore, April 8, 1957; Robert W. Shepherd, Sept. 16, 1957. Radioactive Milk Consigned To Sea Seascale, England HP) Au thorities consigned thousands of gallons of radioactive milk to the Irish sea today. They consider extending to a 400 square mile area the ban on milk produced in the area around a runaway reactor at the Windscale plutonium plant. First tests of milk prompted authorities Monday to increase the ban from an orginal 14 square-mile area to 200 square miles along the Cumberland coast. One of the two piles in the giant Winsdscale reactor over heated last Thursday, sending a surge of radioactive waste into the air. The radioactivity contaminat ed pasture land enough to in crease the level of radio-iodine as much as six times the allow able amount in the milk of some cows. Hoffbuhr Gives Talk On Talent Project The Talent Project is about 62 per cent completed, accord ing to Walt Hoffbuhr, secretary manager of the Talent Irrigation District, at the chamber of com merce roundtable meeting Mon day noon. He told the group that It would be 1960 or 1961 before supplemental water would be added to the present system. The project is currently within two years of being completed, he said. Hoffbuhr said that the work manship of all complete con struction is "very good". He said that most contractors on the project are more than half completed on the sections they are working on. The How ard Prairie dam fill work has slowed down almost to a stand still, he said. The water con tent to the dirt has risen until the contractor will be forced to shut down operations in late October, he added. Quick Thinking Saves Man in Ditch Cave-in Milwaukee OP) Marvin Trautmann, 25, threw his arms over his head Monday when a 10-foot ditch in which he was working collapsed and buried him alive. The air pocket created by Trautmann's arms saved his life, authorities said. It gave him precious moments to live while nearby rescuers dug him out. He is in fair condition in a Milwaukee hospital. ire ERNON SCOTT United Press Writer New Orleans and San Francisco to let the public see its heroes and glamour girls in the flesh. Stars Rtject Plan They overlooked one element the stars. No amount of cajoling could get top-notch names to go along with the idea. Thus, the inva sion of the hinterlands was called off. Originally the plan was to show off stars of the stature of Marilyn Monroe, Clark Gable, Gary Cooper, Bing Crosby and Audrey Hepburn. The Producers Association, which backed the project with $100,000 to meet expenses, an nounced the cancellation be cause "extensive production commitments" prevented the big stars from taking part. Yet many of the luminaries contacted for the jubilee will be trekking to New York this week to attend Mike Todd's wingding at Madison Square Garden. Upshot of the birthday party that flopped is much bitterness within the industry. With theater business down 21 per cent over last year, the movie colony is in serious financial trouble. And many Hollywoodians are point ing their fingers at the stars. Actors Endanger Careers They say the wealthy men and women stars, many of whom have made millions from the silver screen in the past 25 years, are bringing about their own downfall. Others blame the major stu dios. But studio bigwigs point out that they no longer have control of the stars. Fifteen years ago studio chiefs would have ordered their stars to go on the junket. Today most ' players have formed their own companies, and do as they please when they're not working. 'Too con get Maytag Dryer to match your Maytag Auto matic Washer.
