Miss Meriwether, 22, was
married to the actor Sunday
at a 45-minute nuptial mass in
St. Francis Episcopal church.
After a reception, the cou

moon. They will later go on
to Cypress Gardens and Sara

family lives.
Aletter must return to New

said she plans to continue her
acting career.
of four operators, consumers
willing to be guinea pigs, and
hair.
"Women's hair is getting
better all the time," said
Broge in an interview during
a visit to New York. "Women
are more aware . that hair
needs care, and know how to
give it. Home and profession
al permanents are improved.
Shampoos are better, thanks
to the chemist. We all wash
our hair more often, and this
keeps the scalp healthier.
"Hair is more lustrous be
cause we're generally health
ier. Poor health often shows
in the hair, although it may
be. there, six, even nine
months before an illness is re
flected.
"There are many things
about health and the connec
tion with hair which we still
don't know. For that matter,
there is much still to learn
about hair, period."
Broge, 38, and a native of
Cleveland, holds degrees in
chemistry from Harvard and
Cornell universities. During
World War II he worked on
rocket research for the gov
ernment's .Defense Research
committee. He joined P&G
in 1950 and now directs re
search on improvement of old
or development of new sham
poos, permanent wave solu
tions, hair sprays and related
products.
Say Broge is working to
improve a home permanent
wave solution. It first is tried
on hair samples right in the
lab. If it promises what the
researchers are looking for, it
then is tried on volunteers at
the beauty shop wives of
employees, other women in
the Cincinnati area. The
products also goes through a
batch of tests on consumers
in various parts of the coun
try before it is ready for the
market.
Dyes Alter Hair
"My wife tries out every
thing new," said Broge. "I'm
pretty sure of the lab results
or I wouldn't dare let her, I
can tell you." '
The researcher said chem
istry's newest problems are
caused by the increase in the
number of women who bleach

alters hair structure, he said,
and so calls for a change in
properties of the permanent
waving solutions.
"But chemistry will keep
up," he said.
I asked Broge what new
"breakthrough" we might ex
pect in the world of beauty.
There are those who pre
dict that one day we can take
pill to curl or color our
hair. It's not beyond the
realm, but I'm not going to
stick my neck out that far.

Edith Green
Praises Russian
Education System
Washington 0P Rep.
Edith Green (D-Ore.) returned
here Sunday with words of
praise for the Soviet educa
tion system which she studied
at first hand during a brief
visit to the Soviet capital at
the direction of the House
Education Committee.
The Portland Democrat de
clared that "They are making
a tremendous investment in
education and it is not all in
the sciences, as we sometimes
think. There is great stress on
music and art."
But Mrs. Green commented,
"Along with their advances in
education there is a grimness
of life that is very depressing.
She endorsed exchange of
Russian and American stu
dents, commenting "I don't
think any youngster could go
over and not come back con
vinced anew of the superior
ity of our form of govern
ment." Strict Discipline
A former school, teacher,
Mrs. Green was impressed
that there "was no tomfoolery
in the Russian schools; no
whispering, no giggling, very
strict discipline."
She said she heard students
in English classes speaking
with an excellent command of
the tongue and idiom. She
said a student discussed the
writings of Jack London "in
terms of the fight against im
perialism but it was beauti
ful English."
She said the Soviet Union
has been experimenting for
nine years with English and
French classes in the second
grade.
Mrs. Green also remarked
on the intensity of the Rus
sian school system where stu
dents attend classes for six
days a week and where spe
cial attention is given to gift
ed students and to areas of
special student aptitude.
Family Specialist
Gives Information
On Convalescence
Brookings, S. D.' (IP) .
Mrs. Merle G unsainc ex
tension family life specialist
at South Dakota State college
has some suggestions for mak
ing a child's convalescence
easier on everyone.
She suggests that parents
ease up on attention and care
given the child during illness
since the child will regain his
strengtn more rapidly if al
lowed to do certain thines for
himself.
Parents should consult the
doctor on what 'the child
should do and not do.
It is easier to get the child
to return to his room at bed
time if he has been in another
room jduring the day.
Allow friends to visit as
much as possible if the illness
is not contagious.
Employ extra touches such
as flowers, doilies or other
amusing surprises on lunch
eon trays.
A warm bath and rubdown
at bedtime will better enable
the child to sleep.
If shrimp shrink and are
tough, they are over-cooked.
Peeled, deveined shrimpi
should be dropped into just
enough boiling, salted water
to cover. Cover, return to boil
ing point, remove from heat
and- let stand 2 to 4 minutes,
depending on the size of the
shrimp. Drain immediately
and chill.

Harvey S. Belle should
creak off with her parents.
Belle S That's not possible
but they never loved me.
Harvey S. Does it make
sense to continue a relation
ship that makes you miserable
just because the persons in
volved happen to be your parents?
My wife can't get alone at
all with her parents and her
sister, but especially her
mother. Whenever she goes
to see them she comes home
crying. She takes it out on
me and the children all the
next day. She goes over and
over everything that was said
and done.
I'm just about fed up. I sav
she should break off with
them. We can see them once a
year at Christmas, and maybe
an occasional telephone call.
That's enough.
Belle S. How can you
break off with your own par
ents when they live only a
few blocks away from you?
It's not possible.
My parents never gave me
real love and affection. They
were disappointed because I
wasn't a boy. Nevertheless,
they showered affection on
my younger sister. My mother
always told me I was born
with an evil -temper. My
father never spoke up for me
because he's always, been un
der her thumb. '
Even now my mother pre
fers my sister's two children
to mine. She'll baby-sit for
my sister at the drop of a hat,
but not for me.
The Council Yes, we think
Belle ought ' to "break off"
with her parents, but not quite
as Harvey suggests.
Belle needs to break off her
old, childish ties with her
parents and find new ones
suitable for a mature woman
and mother.
In her more rational mo
ments, Belle must recognize
that her parents must have
long ago gotten over whatever
disappointment they may have
felt that she was not a boy. If
she sits down and thinks over
her childhood and youth in
an objective manner, she will
find that her parents showed
their love in countless ways
and that they will continue to
show it when she gives them
a chance.
It is quite likely that her
present resentful attitude often
causes her parents to say and
do things that hurt her. Her
hostility is aimed at provok
ing her parents to acts that
seem to prove her point that
they love her less than her
sister.
It might be a good idea if
Belle took a short vacation
from her parents and then re
turned with a heart full of
love and gratitude toward
them. She must make the ef
fort to rid herself of jealousy
of her sister and to bring to
all of her close relation
ships the warm, sincere love
that undoubtedly exists below j
her childish anger.
Belle should remember that
parents and other close rela
tives are people too, and they
appreciate courtesy, kindness
and warmth and are likely to
return these in the same meas
ure they are received.
