The story depicts present- day pressures on the Chris tian church by the Communist state and is based on incidents in and documents from the Eastern zone. . ' The documentary was film ed at Moelln, a town nine miles from the border divid ing East and West Germany. For six weeks the West Ger man community was trans formed into a "socialist town" with Red banners flying from city hall, schools and factor ies! and posters of East Ger man leaders and Soviet peace messages' scattered all over town. -' . Miss Eggert said the recrea tion was so real that tourists wondered if they had inad vertently wandered over the border. - ' - At openings in various cit ies in the United States, she said, the film drew a general reaction of "What can WE do about such a situation?" Parents in Theater Miss Eggert, married and the mother of a one-year-old daughter named Bettina, said her parents left East Germany 10 years ago. Her mother was an actress but has retired; her father was a theater director and now teaches dramatics, at the University of Mannheim. Miss Eggert studied acting in Heidelberg, Paris and Ber lin. She learned English in Berlin, when to meet expenses she took a part-time job as a manicurist in a beauty salon catering to Americans.

New Flower Varieties Listed for Gardeners By EDNA KING MANDEVILLE This year, as usual, there are so many new flower va rieties available that it must be most confusing to the aver age home gardener. Which, of all those colorful packets, are the right ones for you and your garden? Well, here are my favorites from among the new. varieties, with special emphasis on those that are easy to grow. At the very top of my list is the silver medal all-America winner, Gloriosa double daisy. Received with more enthusiasm by the judges than any other 1961 entry, it is a flower which should de light all gardeners. Beginners will find it easy to grow, and more experienced gardeners will find it unlike anything they have grown before. If you are careful not to plant the seeds any deeper than the packet says, success is almost certain. As their name im plies, the golden-yellow flow ers are simply "glorious." Thin dark velvet centers add contrast to the - planting, and your garden will be truly en riched by these fully double and semi-double blossoms. Though the flowers bloom profusely the first year, the variety is a perennial that will live through the winter. Next on my list is Halo zinnia, a lovely flower that comes to us from Copenhagen, Denmark. Its name derives from the bright circle around each blossom, formed by the golden tips of rich velvety mahogany petals. The blos soms measure about an inch and a half in diameter, and are of the single type, quite different from most zinnias. However, they do share the zinnia's main virtue - they are easy to grow. Coral Satin petunia is an other color of the popular "Satin" strain of Fl hybrid multiflora flowers. As you may remember, Red Satin was the original color of this group a blossom so superior to all other red petunias that it received an All-America Award. Now the lovely deep coral-rose flowers of Coral Satin have made it the second all-America .winner in the Satin strain. But let me sug gest that you buy the pelleted seeds of this particular va riety, as they are much easier to handle in planting. Pellet ed seeds can be sown direct ly In the garden or started inside for earlier blooms. - Officers Elected v' By Tiller Group Tiller - Election of officers was held by Club 227 when members met at the club hall April 7.

Bartlett SP 3-7551 Free Demonstration Certainly one of the most popular and long-lived of the new varieties is Rosie O'Day alyssum. Attractive ' beyond words, with, a rosy complex ion of deep pink,, it is just as pleasing as its name implies. This is the third of the really low growing alyssums, the others being Snow Cloth, for white and Royal Carpet for purple. These are extra dwarf strains, much shorter, than other alyssums, and are' per fect for low border and bed ding. . ' There are so many beauti ful new flowers this year that it's a shame to have to limit my list to these four., But I do believe .these . will . give gardeners the most pleasure and satisfaction . among the easy to grow varieties.
