Smith at his home in Passaic, New Jersey, last week, when he received this telegram telling that he had won a second prize in the Irish Sweepstakes. Smith, who is shown with his wife, Rita, and their children, from left to right, Glenn, 5, Leslie Anne, 2, and Linda, 7, and their police dog, Rilev, is the son-in-law of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Lawrence ef Klamath Falls. He is the assistant traffic manager for a cosmetics firm in Bloomfield, New Jersey, while he is studying law at St. John's University, Brooklyn. He expects to graduate in May, and plens to move here then and pass the Oregon bar examinations. Smith won the $56,000, of which he hopes to see about $34,000 after taxes, on the second sweepstakes ticket he ever held, purchased from a fellow employe. His first donation from his winnings was to the church he attends; some of the money will also be used to help his mother, who ts ill, and to assist needy students at his law school, with the rest going into a savings account. In moving to Oregon he will be follow ing in the steps of the Lawrences, former New Yorkers who came here in 1950.

Alice, in reality, is a pretty, soft-spoken housewife who is ter rified of publicity and the Holly wood limelight. Her world centers around the Gobel family George. 38; Gregg, 13; Georgia, 8, and Leslie, 4. Sounds like a simple enough little world, but it includes a 6'n acre estate in the San Fernando Valley and a home i under three separate roffsl that resembles the -lub house of a fancy coun try club. Fine, but what does Alice think about being the butt of George's gags? "Bverybody wants to know that," she said timidly. "All 1 can say is that rf I didn't ap prove of it George wouldn't make the jokes." George, sitting in their sumptu ous living room, nodded agree ment.

"We try to keep our life as pri vate and normal as possible," Alice volunteered, "especially for the children. Anyhow, we're just not party people."

Separaied From Husband, Siar Plunges Into Work By VERNON SCOTT VTI Hollywood Correspondent HOLLYWOOD (UPI) Betsy Drake, separated from husband Cary Grant, says she is turning to her career to keep busy and forget the past. "I'm thinking of the future now, says the green - eyed blonde. "Five years ago I was learn ing how to keep house and cook. Well, I've learned those things Now I'd like to keep working in pictures and TV as long as I have my own teeth and hair. "Truthfully, I'm not complete ly happy these days, but I'm not distraught, either. There have been times when I was terribly happy, and I hope to be again." Betsy's acting career was eclipsed following her marriage in 1949 to the debonaire Grant although the couple did co-star in pictures together. The 54 - year - old Giant con tinued to soar in movies while Betsy's hopes or stardom faded. Now that she is on her own the soft-spoken actress believes she can work her way to the top. I'm going to try," she said during a lunch of grapefruit and coffee. As a starter, Betsy can be seen on TV's "General Electric Thea ter Nov. 9 in which she plays a feminine quii contestant. It will be her video debut. She hopes it will be the first of many TV ap- but I think too including physical attributes I'll work on that, cheesecake." A former high fashion model. Betsy is statuesque and some what shy. Not once during the interview did she mention Grant by name. During much of her marriage to the actor Betsy found herself alone. Her English-born husband fre quently was away on location making movies, and Betsy her self made two pictures in Britain ! last year. "I'm looking for a place to live now. out near the ocean." she went on. Because she moved out of the couple's home, Grant will retain possession of the family residence. So far neither Betsy nor Grant has filed a divorce ac tion. This Christmas Betsy will, va cation in Europe, paying a visit to her old friend, Grace Kelly. "That is unless I'm working." she said.

DETROIT (AP) Six million car sales seems to be the 1959 demand potential, but American manufacturers will have to com pete with foreign producers for this market. So reports the A'alue Line in vestment survey, published by Ar nold Bcrnhard & Co., Inc., New York investment advisers. "With their 1958 failure behind them, the car makers can look to 1'isn with high hopes," it says "Inventories, depleted by s lengthv production slowdown, are at a rock-bottom level. Personal incomes, an important determi nant of automobile buying, are again rising strongly. Consumer credit is in a healthy condition, with the debt incurred to buy the liuae crop of 1955 cars largely paid off. "About the only dubious quan tity is th'e salability of the 1959 models." The survey says the American auto industry's reaction to the small car challenge has been "to build its own automobiles lower and finnier than ever before." Meanwhile, it adds, American auto companies are working fev erishly to bring out their own small cars. Elsewhere in industry surveys and comments the opinion is be ing expressed that record or near record car sales may be looked for in 1959. Some commentators are cautioning, however, that the over-all economic recovery prom ises to be impressive in dollars but less auspicious in volume. Prof. Hans Brems. University of Illinois economist, speaking at an economic outlook conference in Ann Arbor, Mich., this week, said a steadily increasing dispos able money income promises a bigger car market.
