OUGHT GIVE (j ENOUGH POCW IN WE POOf,'" 0e Ern Strong Believer In Relaxed Television School By CARBER DAVIDSON HOLLYWOOD (API Tennessee Ernie Ford was asked if he planned any chances in his televi sion shows this fall. He didn't say yes or no or mayhe. He said: "No use disging hait when you jot a boatload of fish." That's a Fordism. Ernie's no simple yes or no man. When the oecasion calls for it he comes out with a country-style metaphor to fit. And usually it fits very nicely. Asked for a few typical Ford fihrases he came up with a hefty ist, some of Tennessee origin and others coined by Ernie. Hero they are. mostly1 self-explanatory: "I'm tired as a two-pound hen that's laid a three-pound egg." "Thicker than fleas on a wet doc." . "Colder (han a beaver's belly." "I handed you a bucket, you may as well milk." "Nervous as a long-tailed cat in roomful of rocking chairs." "I feel like I been rode hard and put away wet." "She's built like a sackful of doorknobsi" "Redder than a gander's feet In a huckleberry patch." "Tossed me from the buggy be fore 1 was finished riding." "It's as. useful as a milking stool under a bull." It caused as much talk as a new rooster in the hen house.1 "Hotter than a bucket of red ants." Ford is doing very well in tele vision and television is his main stay. Unlike many other entertain ers, he does not make movies or gn out on night club -dates, al though he does appear at state and county lairs. His other en tertainment activity is making records. Ole Ern Is a strong believer in the relaxed, comfortable school of television. "Bringing a show into the home is altogether different from the theater or a night club, he com mented. "I keep remembering that I am being watched in the living room, where people are re laxedwhere Pop is in his shirt sleeves, and where there Is no baby siller and they can change the channel at any moment." Maybe the hillbilly singer has got himself a pretty good formula. At any rate, while his network NBC) was retrenching and still hadn't re-sold many of its shows for the fall season. Ford was al ready signed up tight by his old sponsor and already making com mercials for fall. Acting Pair Do Something About Children's Tutoring By BOB THOMAS AP Motion Plrture Wilier HOLLYWOOD (AP) Many par ents talk about getting a belter education for their children. Rob ert Ryan and his wife Jessica did something ahout it. They went to the extreme of starting their own school. The project has been a rousing suc cess, attracting interest from edu cators in many parts of tho coun try. It all started about eight years ago when the youngest of Iheir three children was ready to begin kindergarten. Mrs. Ryan scouted the public school situation in their North Hollywood neighborhood. She reported lo her husband that the situation wasn't good. The schools were packed with the wartime bnhy crop, and classes were on half-day .sessions. "What'll we do about it?" the actor asked. "Let's start our own school his wife said. They held a meeting with other parents in the nursery school their son was attending. Only two fam ilies expressed interest. The num ber was swelled to 12 when the DOORS CPEN 6:3D P. M LAST 2 DAYS! OVERWHELMING ACTION I iiSlilif C0UNTS.dDi word got around. So the Ryans and friends cut through govern mental red tape and opened the Oakwood School in an abandoned building. The staff: Iwo teachers for the first and second grades plus kin dergarten. Gradually, the staff and grades were increased and a new building was erected on prop erty purchased by the school. Ryan lound himself devoting al most full time to Oakwood, plus a big hunk of his earnings in films. He was about ready to abandon the whole thing when he heard of the availability of Mane Spotts- wood. a lop-notch New York City grade school administrator. She aid she would come nut if she had complete freedom to run the school. She got it. "Oakwood School has blos snmed since then," Ryan said "We now have BO students, seven modern classrooms and a new playing field. "11 is not a celebrity school 1 m about the only actor connect ed with it. Nor is it a school for problem children. Unfortunately, that is what a lot of private schools altrsct. Parents don't start worrying about their chil dren's education until Johnny can't read or starts beating up the teacher." West, Arabs Can Be Friends By LT. GEN. SIR JOHN GI.L'BB (Written for NEA Service) LONDON (NEA) Inevitably, the events in Iraq have been more painful to me personally than perhaps anyone in Britain. It is now nearly 40 years since I began service in that nation un der King Feisal I, grandfather of the unfortunate young king. For 26 years. I served in Jordan under the grandfather and father of King Hussein. Not only did I know both the young monarchs when (hey were children, but also their fathers before them. In Iraq, as in every Arab coun try since the second World War, young army officers have been the spearheads of revolution. But it is worthy of note that all revolutiooary movements in the Arab countries have been inspired ny a spirit of nationalism rather than affection for communism. Of course, it is likely that the present coup will lead to the with drawal of Iraq from the Baghdad tfact, and as such will be wel come (o Soviet Russia. Unfortunately, Britain's inability to explain her policy has enabled her enemies to build up in the minds of the public in many Arab countries a picture of her as an enemy of Arab nationalism. Such an impression tends to im press on the younger Arab politi cians the idea that the West will oppose progress and development in the Arab countries. Britain also has paid insufficient attention to younger men, and has allowed herself to become too much identified wilh elder states men. An unprejudiced examina tion of Britain's position, howev er, by no means confirms the necessity for such an attitude. As a trading nation, her inter ests are to insure untramellcd passage of her ships through the Suez Canal, and the freedom of her traders to do business. There does not appear any adequate rea son why such interests should bring her into opposition to Arab nationalism. Britain's legitimate interests would be exposed to serious in jury were the Arabs to become satellites of Soviet Russia. Rut Arab nationalists have no more desire to be dominated by Rus sia than by the West. To be independent, progressive and modern is the Arab s amhi tion, and there is no fundamental reason why the West should be opposed to such a development. On the contrary, the Arabs will be less likely to all under commu nist domination if they believe both the U.S. and Britain are sym pathetic to their hopes. A lurlher cause of friction be tween the Arahs and the West is the belief that Britain, France and the U.S. are committed lo sup porting Israel. Ihe lear of fur ther Israeli expansion is an ever present anxiety, particularly in Jordan, Syria and Lebanon. The impression that the western powers are more likely to support than to restrain Israel is a pow erful incentive to the Arabs to seek help in Moscow. There can be no doubt that Bri tain and the U.S. would be strongly opposed to further Israeli expan sionism, but they have failed to convince a majority of the Arabs of this fact. There is a certain urgency about this matter as it is not impos sible that Israel might seize the opportunity lo advance her fron tier to the Jordan River. Should Ihe success of Ihe Bach- dad military coup he permanent. it is essential lor Britain and Ihe U.S. to avoid the errors com mitted in their relations with Nas ser's Egypt. Initially, the prejudices that I have referred to will -probably cause an Iraqi revolutionary gov ernment to assume an anti-West ern complexion. But in the long run, it is as important for Iraq to sell her oil to the W est, as it is for the West to be able to buy it. After all. the Arabs are free to choose whatever form of govern ment suits them best. Their eco nomic interests, however, tie them to the West. Whatever form of government is established in Iraq, economics inevitably will assert their influ ence provided the Iraqis are convinced that the West does not Printed Pattern Edmond ("according In Hoyle") Movie, who wrote Ihe first book on card games hack in 1742, lived to the age of 97.

But regardless of 'he ultimate political results of the present up heaval, it is impossible not to feel deep sympathy for the fate of young Feisal of Iraq, the king who knew no father. Feisal s fath er was killed in an accident when the boy was only four years old. And the Iraq revolt cannot fail to produce a reaction in Jordan where King Hussein is left to de fend his throne, deprived of the support of his cousin. Both young men found them selves kings before they came of age. Both were equally intelligent and patriotic. They have been vic tims of events and world move ments beyond their control. fi-mrn II"1'1 L . . .; VJRS ': y - FIREBEE TO CANADA The first foreign nation to us Firebee jet drones will be Canada, where the Royal Cana dian Air Force will use Lancaster bombers to air-launch the "flying bull's-eyes" to evaluate weapons systems. The KDA-I type Firebee (outlined) being acquired by the RCAF is powered by a 1 ,000-pound-thrust turbojet engine. It has a built-in flotation system to make it fully recover, able from the wafer after it is parachuted to earth on completion of each target mission. Hundreds of the Fire bees, developed by Ryan Aeronautical, are now being used by the U.S. Army and Navy to test the accuracy and efficiency of America's air-to-air and ground-to-air missile systems. Viewers Can Expect To See On TV, Moon's Other Side DOWNEY. Calif. (AP)-One of these nights you'll be watching IV for a glimpse of, something you never thought you d see the other side of the moon. One of the "lunar probe" rock ets now being built will go out to the moon, circle it and come back. scanning its surface with a tele vision camera all the while. The signals from this lunar scanner will be picked up by a giant antenna on earth and put on tape. A few days later, after study by the appropriate authori ties, the tape will be released for public viewing. This is the prediction of Dr. Donal B. Duncan, head of ad vanced engineering at the Auto netics Division of North Ameri can Aviation. Duncan, an expert on space navigation, won't say just when this magic night on television will come "but it may be sooner than you think." "The lirst .swing around Ihe moon, says Duncan, may he 10O miles or so above its surface. Rut even at that distance man will he able to find answers (o many of the questions he has asked for centuries: Is there any form of life at all on the moon? Is the fao side of the moon, which is always turned away from earth any different from the side we see almost every night? Would the moon be a feasible space sta tion on our way to the stars?" Later trips, says Duncan, will take the TV camera much closer to the moon's surface. Man even tually will set foot on the moon and the TV tape of that junket, he believes, will record the begin ning of a new era for man. Just how. will science do this make it possible tor armchair astronauts to circle the moon, even' to "visit" other planets? "There are at least two ways." Duncan says, "both possible with the instrumentation we already have. "First, we could record what the TV camera sees on tape and then recover the tape when the space vehicle returns to earth. "The second, and probably most practical way, would be to trans mit live TV impulses in code to a large antenna on earth, then unscramble the code and record the resultant picture on tape." 1 sm informal attire thi fan is to be gay and barbaric well be free from etergy gray that has kept us buried so long!" 'Dancing Nymph' Latest Creation For After Dark By DOROTHY ROE AP Women'! Editor NEW YORK (AP)-The "Danc ing Nymph silhouette is Ceil Chapman s latest contribution to the field of feminine skullduggery after dark. Shown in both cocktail and long evening gowns, it is based on a slender sheath, with cocoon- shaped puffed panels eaught un der at hipline or hemline, for high ly dramatic effect. The glamor designer follows the season's trend to Empire waist lines, but puts her heart into such man-traps as a long, slender, white brocade evening sheath with long, tight sleeves, a revealing neckline and a platinum fox bor der at the hemline. No matter what the prevailing silhouette, Mrs. Chapman- never obscures the basic lines of the feminine figure perhaps one rea son why she is the U.S. male's favorite designer. This season she uses a device called the "masked sheath to bow to the Empire line and still reveal a trim waist hne This type of dress has bands or seaming beneath the high, round ed bustline, with filmy, trans parent floating skirt over a fitted slip. This gives movement and air iness to the silhouette, but does no hide the lines of the body be neath it all. The "Diamond Horseshoe" sil houette is another favorite in the Chapman collection, being a long, slender sheath with flaring cut away nemune, to give ankle room.

Virginia Plane Builder Dead RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - Green- how Johnston, 70, engineer and mechanic who patented his own. airplane in 1911, died at a Rich, iiinnd hospital Sunday. Johnston, whose remarkable ca. reer as an engineer and inventor was little known even to hn friends, filed the first patent con. taining the principles for techni cal color movies and invented a ball-turret machine gun mount for motorcycles. This principle later served as the basis for turrets used on tanks in World War II. In 1903. when he was only is. Johnston stood on a hill at Kitty Hawk, N. ana watcnea the Wright brothers complete the world's first flight. Five years lat ter he began to build gliders. These proved so successful that he began work on an airplane. His first attempt was a crudej birdlike contraption powered by a motorcycle engine. It had to he towed by an automobile to get oft the ground. He perfected his airplane and designed it lo bring out the rudder principles of control and air brakei for landing. There also are frankly fitted floor length sheaths, usually with long, tieht sleeves, in fabulous bro cades, satins and jeweled effects, designed to dramatize feminine curves.

All Birds Look Pretty Much The Same; Case Ends NEW YORK (AP)-By his own account, it's not that Samuel Brown doesn t like birds. It s what they are doing to his fire escape that has finajly prompted him to act. For 10 years, Brown's Brooklyn neighbor, Mrs. Max Lezak, has been feeding bread and cake crumbs to flocks of birds that gathered near her porch. For 10 years. Brown says, the birds have been perching on his fire escape. Brown says he is tired of having the fire escape scraped. So, Brown. 70. haled Mrs. Le zak's husband, also 70, into Magi strates Court yesterday and put the matter before Magistrate cnaries Solomon. Can Brown prove that Ihe birds on his fire escape are the same ones Mrs. Lezak feeds, Solomon asked. Brown had to concede that the birds in his neighborhood are all pretty much alike. The case was dismissed. Pre sumably, Mrs. Lezak is free to continue feeding her flock. Youngster III, Pebbles Inside SALEM (AP) Connie Holland went home from the hospital Sun day with 100 pebbles still inside her. Doctors have removed 50 of the. small rocks from the 10-year-old girl, and hope nature will take care of the rest still clinging to the walls of her stomach and intestines. Connie came down with pneu monia late last week, started spit ting up pebbles and was rushed to a hospital. Doctors discovered the rocks inside her after X-rays were taken. More X-rays an scheduled in about a week. The doctors figure the child prob ably had been eating the smooth little pebbles for six months or more. "They taste good," Connie said. A doctor speculated the child might have been trying to com pensate for a mineral deficiency ner system. The child is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Patrick Holland of Sa lem. He is a sheet metal worker, Mrs. Holland said she had no idea her daughter had been swal lowing the stones, which wers about the size of a fingernail. Income Tax, Our Specialty Open 9 A.M. to 9 P.M.
