(AP)-A girl in slacks or a bearded boy won't stand a chance at Bell flower's high schools next semes ter. Beards and slacks just don't pass the Code. The Code is a policy adopted by the school board in this Los An geles suburb to tell the town's teen-agers how they're supposed to act at school. Each student will get a copy of the Code. It classifies misbehav lor in three degrees: unaccept able, serious and extreme. Beards and slacks are unaccept able. So arc beach wear, "hot rod jackets." and trousers too low at the hips, for the boys; and open back or low-front dresses, sheer blouses and flamboyant hair tints ior the girls. Serious offenses include (man cy. fighting, gambling, defying authority, profanity and destroy ing school property. Extreme of , fenses are obscene language, striking a teacher, setting fires, bringing lethal weapons to classes, use of narcotics or alcoholic bev erages. Unacceptable misbehaviors may earn only citations. Other penal ties are suspension from school for the balance of the semester and expulsion. Dr. Norman Wampler, superin tendent of schools, explaining the code to a reporter, emphasized that "we feel that our kids are no worse than any others." He added: "We feel that high school youngsters need lo know exactly what is expected of them with re spect to behavior, dress and appli cation to studies, and the punish ments they may expect if they fail to comply." Grisly Thought Added To Darwin Evolution Theory Admiral Named Lebanon Chief WASHINGTON (API - Navy Adm. James L. Holloway Jr. has arrived in Lebanon to take com mand of American forces there, the Defense Department an nounced early today. A Pentagon official reported that the commander in chief of II. S, naval operations in the east ern Atlantic and Mediterranean had arrived on the I'SS Taconie off Beirut. PROFESSIONAL ! ;l RODEO : ; July 25-26-27 jl' WASHINGTON. LPI) It is a srisly thought that Dr. Geoffrey F. Fisher, the srehbishop of Can lerbury, may hae addi-d to a fi nal and awful footnote to Charles Darwin's theory of evolution. Likely nothing was further from the archbishop's mind than the Darwinian theory when, over the weekend, the primate of England was revealed to have said that it may be God's will that man kind be destroyed by nuclear weapons. For all I know, the arch bishop had written in a sympo sium on nuclear policy, "it is within the providence of God that the human race should destroy it self in this manner." The archbishop's widely printed speculation must have remind ed some readers of the July 1 dispatch written for United Press International by Sir Charles Dar win, grandson of the famous nat ural scientist. Darwin's theorv of evolution became public 100 years ago. His great book "The Origin of the Species" was pub lished ihe tollowing year. Ihe central point of Darwin s theory the mechanism by which it lunctioned was natural selec lion which, loosely, means the survial of the fittest. Sir Charles' dispatch explained natural selec tion this way: The intense competition of all living things in the struggle for life which was continually wiping out the less efficient members of any species and leaving the stage lor those better equipped to sur vive. In this same dispatch. Sir Charles wrote that there is ques tion now of the extent to which Darwin's theory actually and di rectly affects the human race. He wrote that some areas have at tained so high a degree of pros perity as to ease the struggle to survive or, practically, to abolish it. permitting the less fit to mul iply. "Natural selection." he wrote, "has been eliminated for the time being." This is leading, according to Sir Charles and some others learned in the subject, to a condition of world overpopulation which would he catastrophic in volume and in effect. "Can our statesmen realize," Sir Charles continued, "that this is by far the most important po litical problem of the near fu ture? Nobody knows any satisfac tory answer, but if one is not found soon, our over-populated world is almost certain to re lapse into hard conditions of life like those that used to prevail only a few centuries ago, when it was the ruthless processes of natural selection that controlled the number of mankind." The archbishop's idea would fit in about there the idea that it may be God's .will that nuclear weapons shall accomplish what mere war, pestilence and famine formerly were sufficient t o achieve in preventing a popula tion explosion in the world. Sir Charles left out of account what effect, if any, the welfare state concept may have on the survival of the less efficient and the coming over-population of the world. Neither did he dispose of the fact that the population bulge is not especially among the high standard of living welfare-state nations hut among others such as India, China and Japan. However that may be, the con cept that a Higher Power may have directed men's minds to the nuclear break-through to blast the world against suicidal over-popu lation is, perhaps, the grimmest peek at the future in this year ot grim forebodings. 'DENNIS THE MENACE" Radio Expert Tells Of Air Communication Problems By RENNIE TAYLOR Associated Press Science Writer LOS ANGELES (API Some planes now can go fast enough to push radio signals out of their al lotted frequency channels, says an electronics expert. This can mean danger for men in supersonic aircraft because it reduces or in some cases can pre vent effective communication dur ing fleeting moments when warn ings or other information are vital, he said. The best way out of the prob lem, the specialist said, is to es tablish artificial radio relay sta tions in satellites thousands of miles above the earth. Two planes closing in on each other and each traveling at 2 1 i times the speed of sound get a speedup in their commonly used voice communication band, Par kinson said. After they pass each other the frequency is slowed down by the same amount. The effect is basically the same as the rising and falling notes of a train whistle or an automobile horn when a car on a highway passes a train going in the oppo site direction. Scientifically it is called the Dopplcr effect. This variation may crowd the signal clear out of the band to which it is allotted, Parkinson de clared. Unless the receiving plane retimes its set to compensate for this, it may get only part of the message or may miss it entirely. One answer to this and other shortcomings of present radio communication. the specialist added, is the establishment of two or three satellites 22.000 miles above the earth with instruments for relaying short-wave signals. These satellites would have the same speed as the rotation of the earth, so they would seem to be stationary in the sky. At the same lime they would reflect signals not just to one part of the earth but over nearly half of its surface. A satellite relav svslem could carry thousands of channels simul taneously and relieve the conges tion of the present radio spec trum, he reported. The system also could make long-range or even worldwide television possible, he added. Existing electronic equipment is capable of producing such a sys tem, he said. The main unsolved problems, he added, are a booster rocket that could get the mod erate-sized satellite to the 22.000 miles level, and a means of fur nishing it with power to operate us reiay equipment. Such problems will be solved in 5 to 10 years. Crime Hikes In California Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt ACCLAIMS NEW HEARING MIRACLE FOR THE HARD OF HEARING! V -liv- rJM-V&rr-.

Brown reports that major crime in California rose 12.8 per cent during 1957 about one third of what the FBI says. 'A large part of the statistical increase in crime is due to bet ter reporting, better procedures for obtaining data and better law enforcement methods," Brown said Tuesday. But beyond these factors, there is still an underlying increase in unlawful conduct in our communities. 'That increase is one of the disturbing symptoms of our times both in California and across the nation." Brown charged that the FBI's Uniform Crime Reports on Califor nia presented California crime in an "unjustified, u n f a v o r able light." The FBI placed Califor nia's crime increase at 35 per cent. Brown charged the FBI based its statistical rate on California's population under the 1950 census. Brown said he based his statis- itics on the 1957 population, which was one-third greater than in 1950. The attorney general's compila tion showed total felonies for 1957 were 194.038, compared to 1S5.250 in 1956. Noting that arrests for adult felonies were up 10.fi per cent, fel ony complaints increased ll.fi per rent and the number of defend ants prosecuted rose to 13 7 per cent. Brown said: "This means that serious crime has increased in California be tween 10 and 13 per cent faster than the rise in population." San Francisco had a "relatively low" increase of 5.9 per cent.

KILGALLEN HOLLYWOOD (UPI) Maurice Chevalier says "You can't fake charm." The fabled song-and-dance man, whose charm has made him inter nationally famous over a stretch of 59 years in show business, said in an interview that to be charm ing "you've got to have charm inside of you, in your heart and in your blood. He said the three most charm ing men he ever met in his world travels were actor George M. Cohan, Mayor Jimmy Walker of New York and Dwight D. Eisenhower. No slouch in the charm league himself, Chevalier has brought flutters to many feminine hearts in strutting his stuff on-stage with a straw hat tilted over his eye, a pouting lower lip and a Parisian spirit of eternal youth. 'The first proof of charm is sincerity," he said as we chatted in his suite at the Chateau Mar- mont Hotel. "Just making faces up there on the stage isn't enough. That's a bluff and insincere and it's dis gusting. You've got to have charm within you to put it across. Chevalier doesn t kid himself. He knows he's what many people regard as an elderly man he will be 70 years old on Sept. 12. "I realize my ago," he smiled I'm past the days when I want to play romantic leads. I don't want to he embarrassed. From now on I'll play fathers, uncles or even grandfathers. The thing I most fear is ridicule. Nobody, however, ridicules Chevalier. Currently, he is one of the stars in MGM s new picture, Gigi, which he plays an uncle in the role of an old Parisian boule- vardier. He is now in Hollywood appear ing nightly at Ihe Greek Theater the beautiful Griffith Park Amphitheater in a series of per formances of his one-man show. "I don't know how long I can go in the profession, said Che valier. "But show business is c love affair with me. I've been at it since I was 12 years old Paris. It's my pride, my kick in life." Press Didn't Realize How Lost Child Much They Missed Marilyn gns Rules By BOB THOMAS AP Motion Pictures Writer HOLLYWOOD (AP) Marilyn Monroe is back, and we're glad. The Hollywood press corps didn't realize how much they missed Double-M until she came; back after a two-year absence. They realized anew that this is the real article. Oh, there have been others who have tried. Jayne Mansfield? You've got to give her A for ef fort, but she lacks subtlety. Sophia I.oren? Not enough imagination. Kim Novak? She comes close, but still lacks a certain flair. Zsa Zsa Gabor? Are you kidding? Marilyn has everything it takes, and I don't just mean the physical aspects. She still has that wonder ful wide-eyed response to inter viewers' questions. And her re sponses are not just accidental or vague. Such as when she was asked whether she favored the sack dress. No, she replied, it's not or ganic. Watching her operate at her first press reception on her re turn, 1 tried to analyze the Mon roe magic. It is unique. She ex udes the impression of being the dumb blonde. But she knows all the angles, including the camera ones. She chided a photographer for trying to get a shot that would 5how more than she wanted. And she keeps the reporters happy. She reminds each one of when they met last, which builds morale. And she always answers oueries.
