Gloria Rests
On Laurels
NEW YORK Little Gloria
Lockerman has taken her $16,000
winnings and passed up a chance
to spell her way to more wealth
on The $64,000 Question television
show.
Here's how she figured It
would be a hard question. "It would
be a jumble of words 1 never heard
of, and then I'd be lost. I thought
the sensible thing to do was to
stop where I was. I'd rather go
away and be Gloria the undefeated
champion than Gloria the girl who
Besides," the 12-year-olo Negro
schoolgirl from Baltimore told
newsmen after the CBS program
last night, "it's $16,000 more than
I started out with."
She will net about $11,000 after ,
federal income taxes, according to
best estimates. She received $300
to use as she wishes, and master
of ceremonies Hal March said the i
rest of the money will be put Into
a trust fund for her education.
Marine Corps Capt. Richard S.
McCutchen, Worthington. Ohio,
reached the $16,000 mark last night
in his quiz category of cooking
and foods. He named the flours
and geographical origins of five
kinds of bread.
Gino Prato. who recently won
$32,000 on the program by answer
ing questions about opera, left with
his wife, daughter and son-in-law
bv plane last night for Italy to
visit his 92-year-old father Giovan
ni, whom he hasn't seen in 33
years.
"It's my dream come true." said
the 53-vear-old Italian-born cob
ler. Gloria Lockerman told newsmen
that she herself made up her mind
an hour before the TV program
last night to quit at $16,000. How
ever, her grandmother Mrs. Ber
tha Key. had been designated to
make the decisions on whether
to quit or go on. Gloria lives with
her grandparent in Baltimore.
Her parents are divorced.
Gloria was smiling and just as
elf-possessed as she was when she
spelled "antldisestabltshmen
tarlanism" and othPr Jawbreakers.
In addition to the money, the
program gave her a television set,
a bicycle, a tane recorder and a
year's supply of comic books.
gency. When Elsenhower is in
Washington he sees Radford about
twice a week to keep abreast of
military developments.
One Eisenhower associate
marked it has been nothing short
of amazing and they say it every
year how Eisenhower has been
able to shed the tension of his job
since he arrived here Aug. 14.
"When he left Washington he
was a bit on edge, nothing sur-
prising In view of the pressure of
the recent Big Four conterenci
and everything else, but he did
need to let up a bit," said this
aide.
"Now he's a new man, ready
for anything."
Each year about this point In
the Eisenhower vacation the influx
of top Washington officials begins.
Secretary of the Interior McKay
already has been here for a brief
conference and others undoubtedly
will be coming along.
But It will continue to be more
vacation than work for the Presi
dent.
He spent only 90 minutes at his
Lowry Air Force Base office yes
terday morning, then went out to
play golf. He allocated another 2
million dollars lor Hood reliel.
