'7? 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

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

wish to dominate them, and will
not support Israel against them.
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

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

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

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."

'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.
Jewels, Deads, sequins and
fringe lend ODulent notes In fh
lineup, which has plenty of
dresses with fitted bodices and
full skirts to please girls who still
oeneve in the impact of a s ender
natural waistline, well displayed.

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.

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.
