... for
the women
of
our time . . .
This is Dr. George N.
Papanicolaou, the physi
cian who many feel has
done the most for the women
of our time. His develop
ment of the cell examination
for uterine cancer has made
it possible to diagnose can
cer of the uterus, or womb,
in very early stages.
Cancer in this site strikes
about 33,000 women a year
and claims the lives of
almost half of them. The
tragic fact is that many of
these lives are lost needless
ly, for cancer of the uterus
is highly curable. If every
woman had her doctor per
form this simple, painless
procedure once a year, thou
sands of those who. have
cancer of the uterus could
be saved.
Don't gamble with your
life! See your physician
about a cell examination for
uterine cancer soon.

Bride - Elect of Prince
Both Gay and Serious
(This Is the second of three dis
patches about the next Empress of
Japan, Michiko Sboda.)
By RONALD P. KRISS .
United Press International
Tokyo-OJPD-Behind the gay,
outgoing personality of the
next Empress of Japan is a girl
completely serious about the
position which soon will be
hers.
Michiko Shoda, 24-yearrold
daughter of a wealthy Towyo
family, will marry Crown
Prince Akihito April 10, to be
come the first commoner on
the Japanese throne in its
2,618 year history.
"I don't believe commoners
should be united with the Im
perial family," Michiko wrote
her mother during the days of
Akahito's courtship. "I doubt
if such a move would bring
good results. The history of
royalty in Europe proves
this."
But once her decision was
made, the told her parents and
friends, "Every marriage, aft
er all, is the same in essence."
Miss Shoda, a trim brunette,
was an honors scholar at the
Catholic Sacred Heart schools
she attended in Tokyo; and be
gan her interest in tennis,
through which she met her fu
ture husband, because her
doctors recommended exercise
to cure a childhood illness.
Her friends and teachers re
member her as a sensitive and
reflective girl an avid reader
of historical novels, and just as
enthusiastic a reader of A. M.
Milne's "Winnie, the Pooh"
books. Also interested in the
paintings of Van Gogh and Ce
zanne, she tried her hand at
art but "somehow I never
worked at one (painting) to
the finish."
"World Is Apple'
Once in an essay competi
tion, she looked back on the
tumultous world in which she
had grown up and described it
as a "worm-eaten apple." But
she shrugged off pessimism
and her wish on reaching 20
was for "a bright future."
"I would like to live each
day filled with a lively expec
tation," she wrote, ". . . im
bued with the spirit that I
would constantly strive to cre
ate a new self and a new fu
ture through my efforts."
Michiko met Akihito on the
tennis courts of Karuizawa
matter of fact, she and a part
ner once trounced him and his
partner in a mixed doubles
match.
By the summer of 1958, Aki
hito was seeing her regularly,
and the knowledge that he
wanted to marry her disturbed
the young Michiko. She hast
ily left her native land with
out even seeing him-ostensib-ly
to attend an international
convention of Sacred Heart
graduates in Belgium. But ac
tually, her friends say, she

and the remaining nine girls will serve as
princesses. They are (left to riht) Miss Linda
Hertager, Eagle Point High school; Miss Ar
vella Prom, Crater High school; Miss Karen
Frohs, Jacksonville; Miss Carolyn Tiegs,
Talent; Miss Sylvia Yell, Crater; Miss Dana
Halaas, Phoenix; Miss Marcia O'Sullivan,
Medford; Miss Jean Bjorle and Miss Sally
Lane, both Ashland. The queen was chosen
at the end of a style show during which
each candidate made three appearances.
and Portland fairs which he
attended. He announced that
a large plastic "bubble" will
be .set up adjacent to the
armory to provide space for
swimming and fishing pools.
Chairman McGinty also
said that a horse show, dog
show and a number of other
attractions are being planned
and that many additional ex
hibitors have taken space for
the fair.
John Watkins of the Pear
Blossom festival spoke brief
ly of general festival plans
and of plans to select the tra
ditional five or six-year-old
kiddy king and queen. He
stated that in addition to the
hand-drawn and motor-powered
floats, a Centennial sec
tion has been added for this
wanted time to think things
over.
Shortly after she left on an
eight-week trip to Europe and
the United States, an emissary
from the Imperial household
board whose job was the
painstaking search for a fu
ture Empress asked the Sho
das unofficially for their opin
ion. Urgent phone calls and
letters passed between Michi
ko and her parents. The deci
sion "No was relayed to the
board.
Prince Determined
But the Crown Prince was
not so easily put off .When she
returned to Tokyo in October,
Akihito was on the telephone
daily an unheard of proce
dure in Japanese royalty's
courtship.
His persistence finally over
came her doubts about com
moner marrying royalty; in
November she said "yes."
Today, Michiko is caught up
in a dizzying whirl of prepara
tions for her wedding and a
life of pomp and ceremony.
Tutors are giving her les
sons in court ritual and eti
quette, preparing her for the
different future. Those who
know Michiko say she will
make the transition smoothly.
Mother Miyoshi, Michiko'?
history teacher and guidance
counselor at Sacred Heart,
summed up her feelings:
"As a person, Michiko is
perfect for the role if you
don't think in terms of com
moner or nobility."

Play Reading
Is Program for
Wednesday Club
Mrs. J. R. Smith was guest
speaker for a Wednesday
Study club program March 18.
Mrs. Smith selected for read
ing one of the numerous plays
from the pen of the Scottish
journalist and playwright,
James M. Berrie, "The Old
Lady Shows Her Medals."
There was added interest in
her choice of plays for several
of the members, they having
seen the play on KBES-TV
several months ago.
Mrs. R. J. Miller gave a pre
pared article on the Middle
East, stressing the Arab situa
tion. Mrs. Miller gave four
primary reasons why this area
has become an important
focus of world interest and
of controversial significance.
First, its geographical position
laying as it does at the cross
roads of three continents; the
phenomenal resources of oil;
political problems and the his
torical role this region plays
in the world's religions.
Collectively, these reasons
make this land an area that
cannot be ignored by the rest
of the world as it is destined
to play an important role in
the future as it has in the
past ages of human history.
Continuing, Mrs. Miller stated,
one cannot study the land and
people of Israel and ignore
Arabia or the Arab.

Cornell MacNiel
New Opera Star
New York-UPD-Minneapolis-
born baritone Cornell Mac
Neil was a new star of the
Metropolitan Opera today,
due to a premature debut
made possible by the illness
of Robert Merill.
The critics were unanimous
in their praise of MacNeil,
who flew here Saturday morn
ing from San Francisco to
pinch-hit that evening for
Merill in the role of Rigo-
letto, one of opera's most de
manding. "Sometimes an artist can
plug along year in and year
out without any breaks," said
Eric Salzman in the New
York Times.
"Then, with a whoosh, he'll
go right to the top. Cornell
MacNeil has just taken that
dizzying ride." !
The critic only echoed the
delirious reception given Mac
Neil by an audience that had
begun the evening by grum
bling over his substitution for
the popular Merrill. His sing
ing of Rigoletto's pathetic
third act aria roused such an
ovation that the opera was in
terrupted for several minutes.
MacNeil had signed a con
tract with the Met a month
ago, but he was not scheduled
to make his debut until next
season. He was singing with
the Cosmopolitan Opera com
pany in San Francisco when
Met called.
MacNeil returned to San
Francisco by jet plane Sunday
to complete his season with
the Cosmopolitan company.

"We even packed a recon
ciliation gift the other day,"
said Mrs. Aaron, for years a
career woman. "The husband
thought a gift basket would
help make peace, so he called
us. It must have worked. Any
way, we didn't get the basket
back." ,
"Bedside Manna" grew
from a conversation in a hos
pital room.
"I've always packed baskets
for sick friends, just for fun,"
said Mrs. Aaron. "That day,
we were visiting Mrs. Kates'
sister, and I'd taken her a
basket of things. Suddenly,
we all decided this could fill
a need for a lot of people."
Mrs. Aaron and Mrs. Kates,
a Westchester county houses
wife and mother of three college-age
children, spent four
months shopping - "casing the
gift field" - before they form
ally opened office. Now, they
feel they know the sources
for unusual gifts and wrap
pings so well, they can fill
almost any order.
The gift donor fills out a
questionnaire which gives a
pretty thorough run-down on
the personality of the recip
ient - his age, nature of the
illness, special interests and
hobbies, active dislikes.
"Under hobbies, a few of
our customers have listed
liquor, golf and women,"
laughed Mrs. Aaron.
"We get about as many
orders for men as for women,"
said Mrs. Aaron. "Men love
being pampered . . . they're
children when they're ill."
One of their recent orders
was for a sick phychiatrist.
"He was down with a back
ailment ... on the couch him
self," said Mrs. Aaron. "His
basket included a pamper
pillow and one of those kalei
doscopes in which a person
can make his own designs-we
thought it was better than
rose-colored glasses. Each of
our packages has'an individu
alized card a little felt doll
