" '"jr'-l ...uy ....... ,,,,,,,, - SnCv "fncess" n & end Moluar's roihanilc fable "The Swan." In so doinir. the tall, 'brunette, 30-year-old wife of conductor Leo pold stokowski and mother of two children fulfilled a driving ambi tion. Known chiefly In an artistic way for her painting, she had de termined to find out what she could do in the theater. As she put It before first night curtain time at the Pocono Play house in this eastern Pennsylvania resort country: "If I can't act, I want to know 11 anJ now. But If-I can act,- I wnr.t to make the most of that ; ability, to develop another 6ltie of my career." To this test she brought no ac-j tual acting experience other than schoolgirl parts. All Uie same she thought that her study of the stage and the knowledge gained from close association with many per sons In the theater would help her to success. The consensus was that the one time "poor little rich girl" billed simply as Gloria Vanderbilt for stage purposes had done pretty well for a beginner. The Ilnal curtain touched off much applause, more than a few bravos, and sent a convoy of ush ers down the aisles bearing great baskets of flowers for the star, who later admitted she had never been so scared and seldom so ex cited. "Wonderful! Wonderfull" she exclaimed. "The audience was so grand and 1 am so grateful." Cameramen wanted pose ', after pose. Gloria obliged, move than a little heady with the magic still Ircsh even to one who has known such riches. ( , ,. , : 'She spoke In gusts- of ' emotion ''Everyone has been so kind Imd helpful ... A marvelous, experi ence , . . There were moments when I wasn't sure I'd inake, it ... What else can I say?" Then 8lie retired to her dressing room In the play Gloria Is an aloof princess of a kingdom belonging to that faraway world of Hapsburg find Bourbons. If her performance Was more a brave silhouette than a three-dimensional charactcriza tlon, the audience charitably con cluded that's usually what you sec in a princess. Slokowskl did not attend. His wife wished to meet the challenge alone on nrst night anyway.

Shetland Pony Mane 'Clipped' A job that has all the appear- ances , of having been executed by the Feather Merchants of Hoot- in' Holler, in the comic strip Snuf fy Smith, was performed on a small Shetland pony in a pasture at 2124 Ogden Street during the past weekend. The "merchants" apparently an ticipating a small fortune In "horse feathers" from the mane of Judy j Trinket, Shetland pony owned by the three children of Mr. and Mrs. Bernard Shiff, caught the pony In the pasture and snipped Its mane. Nary a hair was left that would furnish a clue to the Identity of the "shiftless skonk" who clipped the beautiful flowing mane. 1 . fJMOA MUNICIPAL COURT Furmn Crane, drunk, $23 or day.

Budget Terms Arranged Free Do-lt-Yourself Service TUESDAY. AUGUST 17, 1954 Doctor Out On Bail In 1 Murder Case CLEVELAND Wv-Dr. Samuel H, Sheppard was back at his hospital practice today while police com. plained about his day-old freedom and me grana jury swung into the second day of a hearing tht could end It. Sheppard, 30, shed his prison denims yesterday after Common Pleas Judge William E. Thomas freed him on $50,000 bond. The handsome, athletic osteopath is ac cused of clubbing to death his 31. year-old pregnant wife Marilyn July 4. While Sheppard helped his broth ers read X-ray films at the Bay View Hospital, a grnnd Jury moved through a list of 16 witnesses called to give testimony on the first-degree murder charge against the prominent osteopath. The country prosecution indi cated the Jury might begin delib eration today, and would have Sheppard rearrested Immediately! if an innictmen,t is reiurnea. Authorities strongly protested Judge Thomas' action granting bail request ana ireeing &neppara, in view of the severity of the charges against him. Judge Thom as said evidence didn't warrant his refusing bond. County Prosecutor Frank T. Cullitan said, "I never heard ol it in 4i!S' 22 years here." Cleveland's detective chief, James E. McArthur, expressed "shock" at the judge's action and heatedly suggested that the city well mfcht pull out of the murder case and leave it to county or suburban Bay Village authorities. McCarthur said the Investigation is Just about complete anyway. A preliminary hearing to present evidence that Sheppard should be held was scheduled for yesterday. but the hearing was repassed when the prosecution, seeking to keep Sheppard's attorneys in the dark about its plans for present ing the case should it reach a trial, brought matters directly to the grand jury.
