Greer Garson Leaves MGM With Successful Record By BOB THOMAS HOLLYWOOD W "Make . be lieve is a wonderful thing, and I've loved It. I think it's good to devote 10 or 12 years of one's life to it, but now I want time for other things." This was the philosophy - of Greer Garson, who will end her MGM contract next Monday, sne looks back on nearly 15 years with the studio, many of them fairly fabulous. After first winning attention as Mrs. Chips, she went on to a string ot hit pictures. At least four were among the top moneymakers ot all time. "Mrs. Miniver" earned a do mestic gross of five million, "Ran dom Harvest" and "Adventure" Safety .Group , Holds Meeting PORTLAND (fl State-Wide Ualf la courts, more liberal arrest provisions and mandatory chemi cal tests In drunk driving cases were recommended by the High way Lilesavers committee of Ore gon Citizens here Thursday. Looking at the problem of high way salcty. the nearly 100 dele gates concluded tha,t traffic educa tion was needed. They proposed that part of the revenues lrom their proposed traffic courts, be used to finance it. At present a policeman must witness an accident to make an arrest on the spot, the committee was lold, and it decided the law should be changed to allow prob able cause to be the basis for a traffic arrest. ' Gov. Patterson and Secretary of State Newbrybolh spoke in sup port of the group's objective. New bry proposed that the state give financial help to schools In setting up mandatory driver training classes. Islands Go Back To Sultans Rule COLOMBO, Ceylon Wl Alter less than 14 months as a republic, the Maldlve Islands 300 miles southwest of India's tip are going back to the sultans who ruled them for 836 years. A vote by the little Indian Ocean slate's Assembly to restore sultan ate rule over the 93,000 islanders and their 113 square miles of palm fringed coral atolls was announced here yesterday by the Maldive As sembly. The British-protected re public had come In Jan. 1, 1953. The new sultan is Al Amir Mo hamed Farid Didl, son of a for mer sultan-designate who died In 1948 before he took the throne. The Maldives' first President, Farld's relative Amin Didl, was deposed and later killed during po litical unrest attributed to a rice shortage and privileges he granted women of the predominantly Mos lem islands. Two other Dldis, Amln'a cousins, have ruled jointly for several months.

In recent years, her films haven't been up to that standard, and she says that was part of the reason for leaving the studio. She detailed the reasons as she re clined beside the swimming pool of her sumptuous home: "It's no secret that I haven't been happy .with the kind of pic tures I have been receiving lately. The fact is that the studio Is not making the big, romantic type of picture which was my particular forte. "They are concentrating on other things musical spectacles, " pic tures showing the training ot young men for battle and big adventure epics made in foreign lands. I don't sing and dance with any great proficiency, and I don't fit into the second type of picture. As for the films made abroad, they often Involve being out the coun try 10 months or so and I don't feel I should be gone that long from my husband (Texas money man Buddy Fogelsom. "So we agreed .to call off the contact. Actually it .would have been up in June anyway. I . was to do a picture which was shall we say not quite right. It also involved being out of the country, and I didn't relish that, having just gotten back from England.'.' The orange-haired star did a fine selling job on "Julius Caesar" throughout the Isles. But she wouldn't let her enthusiasm over the trip sway her. "I don't think long-term con tracts are especially healthy for actors," she remarked. "They are all right for young players who are striving for a break. After they have made a success In one or two pictures, I think the studio deserves to cash in on what It has built. "But I have never been for long engagements. Every time I reached the middle of my con tract, the studio suggested that I make a new one for another seven years. The last time that happened was when so many of the stars were setting up their own com panies. I wanted to be more In dependent, but my manager ad vised that the security of a studio contract was better." BPV Meeting' Equal lights for women, were dl6cussed by Dorothy Lowell, at the last meeting of the Business and Professional Women's Club, Imogene Boothby, president, urged all of the members to write tneir congressmen, urging passage of the bill that will give women equal rights with men. Two skits, "The Ride ot Paul Revere," by Isabcllc Brixner, Viola Dickson, Vada Schmeck, Rose O'Leary and Ly Smith, and a "Sweetheart, Punch and J ud y Show," by Imogene Boothby, Nell Stewart, Polly Schroeder . and Lil lian Otterbeln. brought a lot of laughs. Valentine decorations were ar ranged on the tables by Lucille Pappenfuss and Ethel Fankey. .
