management, stressing espec

is not feasible for agriculture

The Hollywood Scene Bu
Hollywood iTP! It's a slim
chance that a 64-year-old
Nampa, Idaho, woman and one
of Hollywood's leading movie
producers ever meet.
But if they should be in
troduced, the two would learn
they share r common interest
in a 24-year-old "folks swing
er" named Jimmie Rodgers.
The woman is a former
teacher of the "Kisses-Sweet-er-Than
- Wine" boy who
credits her as "more responsi
ble for my success than any
one "else." And Jimmie says
she has every record cut by
her young, good-looking for
mer pupil whom she taught
in his native Camas, Wash.
Matter of Finances
Producer Jerry Wald's in
terest, however, is a matter of
finances since he is respon
sible indirectly for Rodgers"
latest hit, "Oh, Oh, I'm Falling
in Love Again."
But in Wald's case the
700.000 "Oh, Oh" platters sold
in less than three weeks is
distressing. The movie man
is interested in the unplayed,
reverse side of that record,
a ballad which plugs Wald's
latest picture, "The Long Hot
Summer."
"I'm in the middle," the
dark-haired singer said. ','1
want either side to sell."
Many Outsell Others
And with Roulette Records
pushing the fast-selling "Oh,
Oh" and Wald making per
sonal disk jockey visits to
push "Summer" this record
may outsell hie two big ones.
HAZEL JOHNSON
nited Press Writer
"Besides, even, Jerry Wald
should be glad to have that
many records sold." he said.
"They've got to flip it over
once in a while."
When Jimmie's fans aren't
busy spinning "Oh, Oh" and
ignoring "Summer" they're
probably playing his first hit
which sold two million re
cords, "Honeycomb," or list
ening to the smooth, country
style lyrics of his second re
cord, "Kisses Sweater Than
Wine," which to date has sold
1,300,000.
Hanford Blames
Chemical Reaction
Richland, Wash. (IP) The
Atomic Energy Commission
said today a fast chemical
reaction in a processing cell
at the Hanford Atomic Works
here Feb. 13 caused between
$75,000 and $100,000 damage.
The AEC said the damage
appeared to be minor and at
first was thought to have been
caused by a broken steam
line. There were no workers
injured, the AEC said, nor
was there any radioactive
contamination.
The building, seldom en
tered by humaii beings, is a
concrete windowless struc
ture the size of a football
field. It houses a cell where
radioactive iodine is removed
fro mgasses produced when
fuel elements are dissolved.
