This is just t one angle of what the 43 ! year-old actress calls her - "quadrangle life." Part of the time, she and - her third husband, Col. E.

Part of ; the time, they're in Holly I wood where the star still Z owns a home and used to make a lot of movies, and part of the time, at their ; ranch in the general vicinity ; of Pecos, N.M. Z Purebred Cattle ; It's at the Pecos ranch that Z Miss Garson described as Z "quite a chunk of scenery" - that Miss Garson's cattle-rais- ing activities center. Several ; years ago, she imported sev ; en purebred all-white Short Z horns ' from Perth, Scotland. ; "I wanted one 'corner of ; the ranch all white," said Miss Z Garson. "Well, the Shorthorns Z have bred true to color, de- - spite what some experts pre ; dieted. But our calico cat up ; set the scheme . . . she had a Z batch of kittens all colors." Z Now, the actress has joined X with Clint Murchison, anoth- r weauny lexan, in cross- I Ing Shorthorns and the Bra Z ham strain in an effort to de 2 velop a new, hardy breed.

Miss Garson, for the bene fit of all who remember her as "Mrs. Miniver," or in "Ran dom Harvest," isn't quitting the movies. She said she's been reading scripts, looking for a role. "Settle down on the ranch? Lord, no!" said the Irish-born actress. "I try to lead a bal anced life . . . I'm interested in so. many things. I love learning. If I cease to want to learn, I'll be under the dais ies. I'll never be old and grey . . . 'I'll be taking flying les sons or off on a trip to the moon." " Mt.

Communists reluctantly okay ed the capitalist practice of tipping toddy in an effort to give customers a chance at de cent restaurant service. For years the Communists denounced tips as incompati ble with the dignity of la bor, and for years in Soviet zone eating places virtually was non-existent. A new etiquette book dis closed the new party line on tipping today. It said tipping still is not a must, but it no longer Is considered anti-soc- Speech Contest Set for Students Representatives of Hedrick and McLoughlin junior high schools and Medford high school will be among the 1500 high school and college students who will compete in speech contests at Linfield college in McMinnville the next few weeks. These students will meet first at the 26th annual Inter scholastic Forensic Tourna ment of Champions on Feb. 20, 21, 22. The college speak ers take over the 28th annual Intercollegiate Forensic Tour nament of Champions on March 6, 7, 8. The book leaves it up to the guest to decide whether tipping is "an act of friend ship in return for service" or a "bribe." But under no cir cumstances can a tip be con sidered a violation of the wait er's dignity, the book says. Tipping may help the East German overcome his dining problem but he soon may find it necessary to stand in line to get a drink. East Germany is suffering a growing short age of glasses. With the Soviet zone con centrating on heavy industry, trade ministry figures show the production of wine glass es chis year will cover only 20 per cent of the number broken in cafes. The only solution the trade ministry . can think of is a campaign to reduce breakage. 9370 fry tnfeMfcnKDtftf Uur smart Printed Pattern sew-simple.

Early Actress Herbert Hoover Are Club Topics Mrs. Ray K. Bailey and Mrs. Don R. Edwards gave the program for the last Wednesday Study club meet ing. . Mrs. Bailey, guest speaker, reviewed the new book, "Lady of Fashion," by Eric Barnes. The story is that of a young girl, Anna Cora Mowatt, who, having a flair for the theater, liked to put on amateur plays. As she matured, her love for the theater increased, but as acting was frowned on in the best circles in those days, over 100 years ago, she could not accept money for her acting Later, however, turning pro fessional, she became the first American actress, appearing in all of the large cities in America and Europe. Mrs. Edwards gave excerpts from a book by Eugene Lyons, "Our Unknown Ex-President," Herbert Clark Hoover. Born August 10, 1874 at West Branch, Iowa, the second son of the village blacksmith, his parents were of the Society of Friends, as the Quaker Faith is officially known. Or phaned when a very young boy, he was raised by relatives in Iowa and later came to Newberg, Ore., to live with an uncle. His first job at seven years of age was picking po tato bugs at one cent per hun dred. He worked his way through college doing odd jobs, graduating in May, 1895, the youngest student of the first graduating class at the new Stanford university at Palo Alto, Calif. Mrs. Edwards stressed little side lights of his boyhood and as a young man rather than his accomplishments as a great geologist and mining engineer and his having been elected to the highest position our na tion affords.
