Lavish Party Rocks 'Garden' In Honor Of Movie's Birthday NEW YORK (UP) That wasi a real nice clambake Mike Todd threw Thursday night, and a nice time was had by all until the television cameras winked otf and the food, and presents came on. At that tune the hour was 11:05 p.m. EDT a human menag erie of several thousand more-or-less-formally dressed persons de scended to the arena where wild animals of the circus perform in season. Todd had invited 18,000 "chums" to a Madison Square Garden party to celebrate the first anniversary of his film "Around The World In 80 Days." Those who couldn't jam onto the floor watched the others, and it was a scene to behold. Jeep loads of presents were on display on the floor, presents supposed to Wasp Stings Aid Ailment FORT SCOTT. Kan. Mt Frank Bccco, a Fort Scott businessman, went to a nearby lake to clean out his duck blind. He was driven away by angry wasps. Next day, Lyle W. Amcr vol unteered to clean out the blind. "I want to get pretty well strung." Amer said. "It helps my rheumatism." Becco took Amer to Hie blind. Amer got his stings and eradi cated the wasps. A Fort Scott physician, ques tioned by a reporter, said the wasp sting contains a neurogeni tive toxin which in small doses could alleviate pain through part ial paralysis of given areas. "But." the doctor commented, "he certainly does it the hard way." Aster's Wife Gains Divorce WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. tft Mrs. (lertrudc Astor received a linal decree yesterday divorcing her from John Jacob Astor III, whose 1954 Mexican divorce wasn't recognized. Circuit Judge Culver Smith s granted the decree and recognized a separate agreement of both parties for support of an 8-year-old daughter, Mary Jacqueline. The couple married in 1944 and separated in l'JSJ. Astor wed lo lores Pullman of Miami after ob taining the Mexican divorce.

Each person with a seat ticket was to get a present from the drawing. I At 11:05. however, the looting began at one end of the arena. Men in dinner jackets broke into jeep-loaded cardboard boxes and fought for the contents, women squealed in the human squirm. Pocketbooks, toys, cameras, li quors, and various donated knick1 knacks were carried away. Duke Ellington's orchestra, which had come on for dancing after the hour-and-a-half televis ing (CBS) of the party entertain ment, surveyed the scene and at 11:07 p.m. broke into a famed Ellington composition, "Take The 'A' Train." The "A Train" is a subway train that runs by Madison Square Garden. Many guests took the hint. It was impossible to dance, except for hell-for-lcalher few. One couple got into a cabin cruiser, which is one of the pres ents, and shuffled around its tiny deck. "The waiters are selling the champagne at $8 a bottle, one man said, and others nodded. The term "rat race" was heard frequently. Georgie Jessel, (he master ot ceremonies, delivered tne Keynote address before the TV show went on. "Such an evening," he said. will never happen again no body could stand it." Shortly before the program be gan, Todd greeted his beautiful wife. Elizabeth Taylor, who ar rived at her ringside scat, dressed in a ruby-red velvet dress, slung off one shoulder, and a diamond thing-um-a-bob around her neck. He calls her "Mommie. Among the presents were a light airplane, foreign cars, motor scooters, home appliances, furs, sewing machines, Siamese cals. and almost anything else you can think of, including a ricksha, In dian elephant bells, and Chinese backscratchers. Todd announced that his wife would do the draw ings and newspapers Wednesday would say what numbers won what. There was a sprinkling of celeb rities in the audience, stage and screen folk. Sir Cedric Hardwick rode an elephant side-saddle. The French comedian Fernandel rode in a pageant about Todd's next picture, "Don Quixote. CBS. in cidentally, paid Todd to get to air the party. Mrs. Todd cuf the first slice of the half-ton cake, a tasty thing with garish pink icing and yellow innards. Then the jeeps came, bearing gifts (courtesy of Willys). Before the evening was over the cake was being whacked at one- pound hunks per person. Yesterday War Jitters Hit Cairo CAIRO iH The Cairo press de-; veloped an acute case of war jit ters today. The newspaper Al Sliaab pre dicted a Turkish attack on Syria immediately after the Turkish elections. "Turkish troop concentrations along the Syrian border are in creasing," Al Shaab declared. "Units of the United States 6th Fleet ate cruising off the Syrian coast, home American and British naval units are sailing to Leba nese and Syrian ports. Israeli troops are being trained in moun tain fighting while Premier Ben- Gurton is asking for more arms and planes. Al Ahram in an editorial drew a parallel between the situation now and one year ago, just before the tripartite attack on Egypt. Forces massed in the frontier region are wailing the signal to attack Syria. Al Ahram said. Al Gumhurriya referred to om inous signs of war and warned, "Certain land and sea movements' may be a prelude lo actual aggression." Al Akhbar spoke of "ominous signs of imminent conflagration" and urged the United Nations to act promptly to prevent war in the Middle East. KLAMATH FA1.1.S MlSIVU'Al.

Girard's battalion com mander from Beach Haven, N.J said while he was questioning a witness on the Army firing range, Onozekt and other collectors scrap brass change his story. Sharp said Onozeki spoke lo olh-! er witnesses and was "arrogant" earlier when other brass collectors were being shooed away. He said he thought Onozeki was trying to set an example lor the others. "I put Onozeki lurlherest away from the rest of the Japanese so he could no longer talk with them," Sharp told the court. The olficer supported the argu ment of defense lawyer IIswd Ha yashi that Girard, guarding a ma chine gun, was acting in the line of duty when he tried to chase away the, scavengers. He aooefl it was permissible to use weapons to guard Army properly. When a soldier is on guard duty, formal or otherwise, he must carry out his orders" said Sharp. He roust, of course, use his own judgment. Whether it is good or not is something beside the point. Hayashi contends that because the young Illinois soldier was on duty, Japan has no jurisdiction over the case and it should be thrown out of court. Sharp said the day ot the shoot ing the firing range was overrun with brass pickers "getting - in front of the men firing. , . , It appeared a little dangerous." He said there were "about six brass pickers for every soldier." Japanese police. Sharp said, gave an "unworkable" answer when they were asked to help in clearing the shell collectors away. Ihe other American witness at today's session, Capt. Fitzhugh English, Louisville, Ky., testified. Japanese police could not clear the range because they had no authority on the range." English supported the defenses description of Girard, calling him "a vevy ordinary soldier ... not an outstanding man," who caused the Army no trouble. The prosec tion contends Girard was an ir responsible, soldier who jokingly took pot shots at several shell gatherers before shooting Mrs. Sa- kai in the back. Girard insists he was trying lo shoo the woman I away and he did not mean to hit ner.

MINNEAPOLIS W Scientists today awaited the chance for a new, closeup look at the sun in 8.0D0 pictures taken by a balloon- borne camera at 83,200 feet yes terday. Dr. Martin Scliwarzschild, head ing the slratoscorte project termed it an outstanding success after the huge camera was para chuted safely 20 miles southeast of Blue Earth. Minn. The 35mm. films, exposed at the rate of one per second, are being processed in a University of Min nesota laboratory. The balloon, with its nearly three-quarler-ton cargo of appa ratus, was launched Irom Huron, S.D. Dr. Schwarzschild, Princeton University astronomer, said the project is providing valuable in formal ion for possible satellite launchings. The camera achieves clarity through being free of 95 per cent of the earth s atmospher ic haze. i a- L! California Weather By UNITED PRESS San Francisco Bay Region-.
