REDNECK DID A VERV THOROJ6H JOB' OP CHEWING OUT ANOTHER LADV IN TRAFFIC VESTERDAV "OAA j. , . j ' f i "loOAY MRS. R'S HOUSE WENT ON THE MARKET. 6UESS WHO WAS HER FIRST PRO5PECT0W-O,WGW SALE.') OF SMITH & MEN Bv Jac k Smith c I960 Times-Mirror Syndicate By now, Jack Kennedy and his wife may realize fully what it is to live under, a searchlight. Their temple of privacy has grown suddenly quite small. , The President's slightest act Is news. Whether he swallows a cuff link or merely bumps his knee or has an artichoke for lunch - it's news. Whether he reads the comics or plays jazz on the phonograph or has a highball in the Oval Room -- It's news. Few of the rest of us, in our daily lives, could stand such scrutiny. If President Kennedy had done just the aimless things I have done today, for example, it might have made odd read ing, but It would have been news. Imagine Americans picking up the paper and reading this: President Kennedy woke up late this morning feeling ex tremely rocky. He was plunged into a black mood on discovering that the tooth paste tube was squeezed abso lutely empty. The President cursed his family quietly, so as not to awaken the dogs, and brushed his teeth with salt and baking soda. The President fried an egg for breakfast., He always fries his own eggs on his day off because, frankly, nobody else in the White House can fry an egg without breaking the yolk. While walking from the bathroom to the kitchen.xthe President struck a corner of the marble table with his left shin. The table was recently Installed by the First Lady. The President hasn't got used to it yet. The President grabbed his left leg, which soon began to bleed, and cursed frightfully, awakening everyone in the White House including the dogs, which began to bark. The President refused hos pitalization, explaining that he did not wish to alarm the nation. The First Lady put a bandage on his leg. The First Lady called the President a baby. At breakfast, the President went through his mail. He be came quite testy on discover ing a bill for his Sigma Delta Chi dues and spoke sharply to the White House chief of staff. She admitted forgetting to mail the check. The President studied a catalogue from a Warren (Pa.) textile manufacturing firm and ordered two pairs of syn thetic pants, blue for night and beige for afternoon. After breakfast, the Presi dent conferred briefly with the milkman, an insulation salesman and a representative of the Girls Scouts of Amer ica. He answered a telephone call which turned out to be for Juan Rodriguez. A quick check showed no Juan Rod riguez living in the White House. . Still vearlng his pajamas, the President chatted ener getically on the White House doorstep With an apocalyptic young man who said he had come to advise the man of the house that the world was coming to an end. "Don't I know it!" cried the President, slamming the door. The President then retired to his den with the morning paper to brief himself on world affairs. The First Lady later took one of the cars (the '51 Ford with no top) to buy a garden trowel. She wore plum capri pants, a boating sweater, ten nis shoes and a baseball cap. She drove herself. The President, never too EMUHIM mw-'t' f 1' CHOICE APPROVED - The Senate Commerce Committee has approved unanimously the nomination of Newton N.

Y. - My daughter wants to quit school and go on the stage. Aida Y.-I want to quit and study for the stage. That's different. Mr. H. Y.-I thought my daughter had more sense than to let herself get stage-struck, but no. She wants to transfer from her freshman year in teachers' college and be come a showgirl As a lawyer, I represent many theater people. Aida has met some of them, and has heard me discuss some of my experiences in theatrical cir cles. Surely she must know that she's not the type. Most of the actresses are vain, self- lsn and narcissistic. If they're not the center of attention at all times they're miserable. Aidas a wholesome, sweet kid. She'd never fit into that tinselled, tawdry, knock-down and drag-out business. On the other hand, she'd make a wonderful teacher. She's so bright and patient, and has such a way with children. Im sure the theater can get along without her and she'd "be better off without the theater. It's the schools that need her. She belongs there. Aida Y.-Dad just hasn't met the true representatives of theater art, and he's repeating the same old cliches which insist that a life on the stage is a life of sham and false values. "I'm 17 and have spent the past two summers as an ap prentice in a highly rated summer stock company in New England. I painted scen ery, handled makeup, played bit parts, and learned how much blood, sweat and tears go into a production. I have a great respect for everyone in me game, from the box office treasurer in front to the stage-door watchman in back. I long to be part of it. bnortly after college open ed, I applied for admission to the classes of The American Theater Wing. To my delight, 1 was accepted. I may return to teacher-training courses. and I wish my father didn't feel so tragic about my trans fer. I'll still be getting a wonderful education, includ ing languages and writing. The Council: Aida seems to be on a sound track (not the Hollywood kind) at present. Mr. Y. can take heart from two signs: first, the extent of her skill has been deter mined; second, she's not delu sional or unrealistic. Her feet are on the ground-the cold bare floor of a stage with slippery ladders. Whether Aida stays with the theater or not, her train ing will have lifeling benefit because it strives to teach her to communicate effectively. She'll learn poise and posture, diction and voice projection. Nervous, jagged mannerisms will be eliminated, graceful ness and self-control devel oped. Even if she ends by teaching or keeping house, Aida can profit from such courses as fencing, playwrit ing and stage-lighting-to men tion a few. But should it become clear' that the entertainment field is her cup of tea. Mr. Y. can be proud of his daughter and cheer her along the hard course because the genuine trooper is not a poseur-not the self-worshipper he knows -but a sharer, a fenefactor, and a benign magician who wields great power for good. Watch Danny Kaye lift peo ple out of their stodgy selves. Watch the lame leap across a stage, in fancy, with Maria Tallchief. When Jimmy Du rante says Laugh, we laugh. When Lily Pons approaches a high C, we all stop breath ing! In entering the heart of show business, Aida will join the ranks of true lovers of humanity, not narrow lovers of self. "Ninety minutes is a long, long time," sang Noel Coward about a TV show. As actress or teacher, Aida is learning ways to make time fly for her audiences. , Three Appear in District Court Three men appeared In dis trict court yesterday. Sentenced to five days in the county jail for being drunk on a public highway was Norval Kenneth Lady, 43, of route 3, box 351, Med- ford.

Capitol Memo Portland Exposition Urged To Turn Over Property To State By DOUGLAS GRIPP Salem (UPD A legislative effort has begun to press the Pacific International Live stock Exposi tion in Port land to hand its property over to the state. Rep. George A n n a 1 a (D H o o d River) suggested it might serve Douglas Gripp as a new sue for Portland State college. Annala urged the Joint Ways and Means Committee to, if necessary, "force" the Oregon Centennial Commis sion to keep its "promise" in having the land turned over. Annala said the stale has invested more than $2 million in the property - site of the 1959 Centennial Exposition and International Trade Fair. In a letter to Sen. Dan Thiol and Rep. Clarence Barton, co chairmen of Ways and Means, Annala said "I'd like to re mind you of a promise made to the legislature in 1959 by the Centennial Commission." "Following the close of our celebration, all the buildings and property of the Pacific International Livestock ex position were to be turned over to the Board of Higher Education," Annala said. "This has not materialized and, unless aggressively pur sued, will be forgotten by all concerned and again the state will be the loser." Annala suggested the cen tennial commissioners be in vited before Ways and Means and "encouraged, even forced, to keep their promise." Annala is vice chairman of House Ways and Means. A 3 Federal Crackdown On Water Pollution In State Promised Salem -ll'PIl- A federal crackdown on water pollution in Oregon is promised if the legislature passes a bill pro posed by the city of Portland. Leonard B. Dworsky, North west director of the U. S. Pub lic Health Service's water sup ply and pollution program, ap peared before the Senate Com mittee on Local Government. Would Nullify Efforts He said that if SB138 was approved it would "nullify the efforts of the state's water pol lution program." Then, he said the government would have to "do whatever necessary in relation to pollution in the Columbia and Willamette riv ers. The committee took no ac tion on SB138, or on SB36, proposed by the State Sani tary Authority. It suggested a compromise be worked out. Alexander Brown, Portland city attorney, labeled the au thority s legislation as "Utopian." Harold Wcndcl, chairman of the authority, charged ". , . Portland has found more ways to find delays than we thought conceivable." Difference Noted Brown said the primary dif ferences between the two bills were: (l)-The matter of stability. The city would like a mini mum period of 20 years before the authority could order a city or corporation to con struct additional sewage con trol facilities, once it had com plied with an authority order, Sen. Alfred Corbett, who was Ways and Means chair man in 1959, said he doesn't think there was a commitment to turn the property over to higher education. But the Portland Democrat explained that the PI setup involves two corporate groups, one profit and tile other non profit. The idea is that when the profit group dissolves, the property will go to the state "eventually." "I had hoped this would have been accomplished by now," he said. Anthony Bran denlhaler, commission chairman, said all the commission can do is as sist PI officials in the trans fer. "They're moving as fast as they can," he said. IMPROVED LIGHT New York - A modern elec tric light bulb gives 10 times as much illumination as the first incandescent lamps and at about one-tenth the cost. and (2)-classification of tha state's streams requested by Portland because "the water purity standards should not be the same throughout the state."
