Foreign Language Pupils Outnumbered By Russians By THOMAS P. WHITNEY AP Foreign Ncivn Analyst The number of pupils in Ameri can schools studying any foreign language is a small fraction of the comparable figure for the Soviet Union. Recent Soviet statistics say that in the U.S.S.R. during the school year 95li-57 about 12 million stu dents in grades 5 through 10 were enrolled in foreign language class es. In the United States during the school year 1954-55, the latest year for which any figures are avail able, they were roughly 1.400,000 pupils in all grades of elementary and secondary schools of the coun try studying a foreign language. In Soviet schools, in grades 5 through 10, a foreign language is compulsory. German is the most popular foreign language there, with 7,651.000 pupils enrolled for it in 1956-57. In the United Stales in elementary and secondary schools in 1954-55 about 40,000 pir nils were studying German. English was the second most popular language in Soviet schools with 3,306,000 students in 19,300 schools. For comparison, in the United States in the same school year there were only a dozen second ary schools in the entire United States giving Russian language iu struction. With the increased in terest in Russian since Spulnik the number of schools giving Russian language courses has jumped this year to approximately 80, the U.S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare report. Officials of the U.S. Health. Edu cation and Welfaro Department re port there areindications that this current year in the United States I he number of students taking for eign languages has increased con siderably over the level of 1954-55, A current statistical survey is un der way to obtain nationwide fig ures. Oregon State Policeman Saves Accident Victim FLORENCE, Ore. (AP)-A red haired mill worker, who gave up hope alter being trapped in a car nearly covered hy a rushing nv er, was in good condition in f hospital here today. Western Lane Hospital said Reuell Morse Upton, 51, was able to get up and walk around Sun day night after his chill, watery ordeal. The 6-foot, 165-pound Swiss home, Ore., man owed his lile to a number of things, including a little air pocket and a state policeman who wouldn't believe he was dead.

Upton later said that he gave up hope of being rescued when ho found that he could open neith er the doors nor the windows of the upside down vehicle. After that, he lost conscious noss. For more than two hours he was in the car, before a truck pulled the vehicle from the water. The car, with only its wheels above water, had been spotted by a train crew. Stale policeman Robert Buswcll was there when Upton was taken from the car. Ruswcll said he at first thought Upton was dead. I bent over him. And he wasn't exactly breathing, just sort ol a gurgling sound. Buswell applied artificial respi ration, revived Upton and then I hp man was rushed to the hospi tal here. The policeman gave this ac count after talking to Upton: lie said he was gome about miles an hour, and possibly went to sleep. He said he remem bered running off the road and then the cold water.

Power, Off The Screen, Was Complete Antithesis Of Swashbuckling Roles By VERNON SCOTT I'PI Hollywood Correspondent HOLLYWOOD lUPD Tyrone Power symbolized a movieland era in which the leading man was a dashing, handsome, swashbuck ling hero who managed to rescue the heroine in the final minute of the last reel. He was playing such a role when he died. His contemporaries in the "pret ty boy" era included Errol Flynn and Robert Taylor who long ago ave up those flamboyant roles. They have been replaced by the new school of not-so-pretty dis turbed" young method actors. But Power continued to star as swashbuckler because that's what moviegoers and producers expected of him. He was a throw- hack to the silent days of Douglas Fairbanks. In his 22 years In pictures the flashily handsome actor starred in 26 roles, most of them calling for feats of dernngdo, a situation he deplored. Power had an apologetic atti tude toward his career. Frequent ly he requested modern dramatic roles, and when he did appear In them the boxoffice registered "tilt." The public saw him as a knight on a white chargen So Power continued to play the hero whose only problem was to kill the villain and save the lead ing lady. He didn't like it. Off-screen Power was the antith- Convictions Set Record More convictions for traffic vi olations than ever before recorded in a single month were reported hy Oregon ludges during October, Hie Department of .Motor Vehicles reported today. The department said 14,938 driv ers were convicted of violating the state's traffic laws during the month. Officials said 644 of the ab stracts received were forwarded to the financial responsibility section of the department for action. More than 250 of these abstracts were for convictions of driving while in toxicated, a charge which, under the law, results in mandatory li cense suspension. More than 120 drivers were con victed of driving on a suspended driver's license. Sixty three of these drivers, in addition to receiving an additional one year suspension were sentenced to two days in jail Other reasons for suspension in cluded 168 on court recommenda tion and 312 through discretionary action of driver licensing officials. Of the 312 drivers who lost their licenses through discretionary ac tion of the department, 265 were suspended because of too-frequent involvement in accidents or traf fic violations'. Other reasons for discretionary suspension included failure to complete tests, medical report and involvement in fatal accidents. esis of his screen portrayals. to nis iricnas he was a thought ful, intelligent man with a ready wit and an aversion to Hollywood parties. He was quiet, dignified and well-mannered. Through two divorces and three marriages he maintained an un ruffled exterior, refusing to dis cuss personal problems with the press or with his closest trienas. When the white glare of publicity turned too brightly on his personal affairs he traveled to New York or Europe. Power olten spoke of turning nis talent entirely to the theater, a de sire growing out of his ambition to become as great a legitimate per former as his father and grand father before him. "There's a vast difference be tween movies and the stage," he said earlier this year. "Somehow you feel as if you are cheating when you work before the cam eras. There are so many tricks and gimmicks to help you along. But in the theater you are on your own. You stand or fail on your own ability. And there is a real thrill in that knowledge." Three generations of performers instilled that instinctive drive in Power. His great-grandfather, Tyrone Power, the first, was a celebrated Irish comedian named after Coun ty Tyrone. He was a beloved fun nyman for more than a quarter century, beginning in 1827, in Europe and the United States. His grandfather was the famed British concert pianist, Harold Power. Tyrone the second, his father, was for years a renowned Shakes pearean actor. And though he became better known, seen by more people than any of his predecessors, movie star Tyrone firmly believed he never reached the heights attained by his forebears. Powers was not a robust man, despite his handsome physique. He frequently suffered from virus; infections and was allergic to cold, i damp weather. Still, he insisted on performing difficult fight scenes and stunts for his films, much to the annoy ance of 20th Century-Fox moguls, where he was under contract for most of his career, going back to 1936. He smarted, under the studio's insistence that he play vacuous roles, but and this is typical of the man rather than go on sus pension or precipitate a public quarrel, he -agreed to their de mands. Says Charles Laughton, a close friend of Power, "Can you imag ine what it would be like having to live with an oversize mythical monster whom you and many other people had invented togeth er. That is what my friend Ty had to live with. The mythical monster was called Tyrone Power. "Ty lived inside this shell which the whole world knew by sight and which was made partly by himself and a raft of writers, di rectors, producers and publicity departments. "Underneath the movie star shell he was a hard working art ist, proud of his craft and of his heritage." When he died last Saturday morning, Tyrone Power had no permanent home. He had sold his mansion in Bel-Air (which is cur rently occupied by Elizabeth Tay lor) and spent part of his time in a New York apartment with his third wife, Deborah Mmdaraos, a 26-year-old Mississippi Deauiy. He had recently purchased a vacht, which he called "Th Black Swan" after one of his pic. lures, and had planned to livi aboard the boat on the Riviera after completing his role with Gina Lollobrigida in "Solomon and Sheba." Tyrone Power could not live as his father had as a great Shakes, perean actor. However, he did dig as his father died before the movie cameras. Tyrone Power II died Dec. 30, 1932, at 62, after completing a scene in a new picture, "The Miracle Man." , I STORM WINDOWS ' Installation Guarantee F.H.A.
