MEDFORDJflSi MEDFORD, OREGON, THURSDAY, JANUARY 2, 1958 Back Stairs: Stories Would By MERRIMAN SMITH UP While House Writer Gettysburg, Pa. IW Back stairs at the country White House: If President Eisenhower's dog. Heidi, could read, she would be amazed at the rate of stories printed after she rode to Gettysburg in the presidential motorcade last week Reporters unfamiliar with the menagerie at the Eisen hower farm really let them selves go, and one even went to the point of desecribing how Heidi, a handsome Weimaraner, breakfasts daily on two poached eggs on toast with two strips of bacon. Members of the family and White House staff say this is downright "ridiculous." Heidi was a gift to the President from the son of a cabinet member nearly two years ago. A number of news stories were written about Heidi and the other dogs around the Eisenhower farm last winter. Heidi and the other dogs reside normally with Ivan Feaster, the President s farm er here at Gettysburg. About six months ago, Hei di was sent away to a dog trainer to be taught to obey simple commands and after her training was completed, she was delivered to the White House for transship ment to Gettysburg. And that is how she showed up in the White House auto caravan last Friday. Dewey Long, the White House transportation chief, has been out of circulation for several weeks. Dewey, who has arranged and directed presidential trips for more than two decades, has been rather ill at a hospital in Ta koma Park. Md.

Once by his own fireside, his improvement seemed to speed up and while it may be some time before he is back on the job, he is on the mend and feeling much better. The weatherman had the most of this past week in White House party scared Gettysburg. For the first four days the President was at his farm, the forecast was for either sleet, snow or chilling rain. And each of these four days dawned bright and sun ny, with the temperatures ranging from below freezing at night to the high 40s in the daytime. If the President ever gets MEETING IN CAIRO,'; Egyptian Premier Gamal Abdel Nasser (left) and United Nations Secretary General Dag Hammarskjold discuss Mideast problems.

He throws up the past at me. James R. I don't think she's really changed. " Flora R.. I wonder if it pays to be honest and truth ful. I was no angel before I was married. I came from a broken home and I had no supervision at all when I was a teen-ager. I ran wild and got into plenty of trouble. A social worker finally helped me to change my way of life. Friends advised me not to tell my husband anything, but I'm honest by nature. I Wouldn't sell my husband a bill of goods. I told him all about my past. He forgave me and I thought all would be forgotten. Now, after three years of marriage, my husband starts throwing these things up at me. I would walk right out on him, but we have a year old baby. I don't want my child to have the kind of problems I had. I want to make a decent home, but how can I? James R. if it were just the past, I could forget about it, but I don't think Flora has really changed even now. I have begged her to stop using so much makeup and wearing the kind of clothes she wears. Wherever we go, men stop and stare after her. She flirts all the time with the butcher, the baker and the candlestick maker. Is this the way for a respectable woman and a mother to act? I never would have brought up the past if it weren't that one of our neighbors finally asked whether Flora had ever been a chorus girl or something. How can I help ANNOUNCING! Swem's Bonus Record Club Ask About It Next Time You're Buying Records At Tribune Amaze Dog snowed in at Gettysburg, and if the visibility is operational, he'll probably be airlifted back to Washington by heli copter. In fact, the Air Force has made some practice runs to the Gettsburg airport in the past few days. The grass landing surface was too soggy to permit land ing a conventional plane, but the helicopter had no diffi culty getting down. The fellows at the Bureau of Labor Statistics where the cost of living is computed might be interested to know that the SI shrimp cocktail at the Gettysburg Hotel con tains exactly five shrimp They're the most delicious 20' cents-each shrimp in these parts. I but think about all the things she told me when she still I hasn't toned down? One of my friends told me everyone was shocked that a conserva tive guy like me married a girl like Flora. The Council: James doesn't mention whether. Flora has changed her dress and style of makeup since marriage. We're willing to wager she hasn't changed but the things that once attracted James now worry him. And why? If men stare at Flora now, they probably stared at her before her mar riage. Then James was proud. Now he is ashamed. From his account, it is not so much the story of Flora's past that works on him as a few words said by a neighbor and a "friend." James is being very unjust both in bringing up the past and in making veiled insinua tions about the present. He evidently has nothing to go on in the present, except Flora's preference for flashy dress. He seems unable to back his suggestion of her flirtations with "the butcher, the baker and the candlestick maker." We think it might be ad visable for Flora to tone down on the dress a bit since it bothers her husband. But the biggest change in this re lationship should come from James. He should be proud of his wife's honesty and her apparently sincere desire to create a decent life for her self and her family ,and should cast out the worm of jealousy which is destroying a potentially good marriage.

Plot: Theft of movie '"II Grido," made in Italy by Cochran and Cancellieri. Scene: Projection room on Sunset blvd. Narrator: Steve Cochran. "We made this picture to gether with the understand ing that Cancellieri would re lease it in the Western Hemi sphere," Cochran says. Profit Percentage "The trouble is Cancellieri had a percentage of Western profits, so he felt he should also determine how the pic ture would be shown in this country. According to our contract, he was supposed to deliver me a duplicate nega tive of our original film. But he refused, claiming he could n't get a permit to export "II Grido" out of Italy. "Well, last month the pic ture was set by the Italian government in a diplomatic pouch to the Italian consulate in San Francisco for the In ternational Film Festival. "It was supposed to be sent right back' to Italy, but Can cellieri began showing it around Hollywood looking for buyers which wasn't part of our deal.

Then I called by old buddy Jack LaRue to help me steal the film. "While Cancellieri and I and the bogus exhibitor were watching the picture, LaRue was taking each completed reel off the camera and hid ing it in my car. Finally, Can cellieri found out what was happening and started screaming like a Neopolitan opera. He tried to call the po- i lice, but he doesn't speak j English. "To quiet him down Jack gave him the toughest mob ster look you ever saw. Jack was wearing a dark suit, blapk shirt and white tie like they used to wear in old Jimmy Cagney movies. Film in Safe Place "We finally left him there and ditched the film in a safe place. Then I had to hide out for a couple of days. The district attorney wanted to arrest me for grand theft. I finally returned the picture to the Italian consulate and got a promise that it would j be returned to Italy. So I at least stopped my partner from selling the film without my approval. "He's finally calmed down and we're negotiating again. But ' it's tough. We've got a million bucks tied up in the picture and we've got to come to terms. "Cancellieri will be going back to Italy soon, and he wants to leave it all in the Italian courts. But it will take two or three years to get it straightened out over there and by that time the picture will be an antique."
