PAGE 2 A HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS. OREGtW WEDNESDAY. NOVEMBER 19 News Of Ty Power's Death To Be Retained From Mom HOLLYWOOD (AP)-Thc body cf Tyrone Power will be interred rear the crypt of Rudolph Valen tino, but Power's mother, 70 and 111. won't be told of her son's death. "The news would kill her," a maid said Tuesday. The disclosure recalls the bene volent family conspiracy that kept the mother of crooner Russ Co lombo ignorant of her son s death. She died in 1944 unaware the crooner accidentally had shot himself 10 years before while ex amining an old Civil War pistol. Power's mother, who lives quiet ly in a Hollywood home with a nurse and a maid, suffered a stroke several years aco. "We don't have a radio in the house and we only let her watch certain programs on television," the maid said. Power, who died Saturday of a heart attack on a movie location in Spain, was a devoted son. He visited his mother frequently while in Hollywood and sent her a constant flow of cards when away. The body of the 44-year-old act or was scheduled to arrive by plane tonight accompanied by his widow, the former Debbie Ann Mi nardos. She expects a baby in February. Funeral services were tentative ly scheduled for Thursday noon. However, a Catholic source here said that it is doubtful Power can he buried in the Catholic faith. Although born and baptized a Catholic, a source said. Pow er automatically excommunicated himself when he married the lormer Mrs. Minardos, a divorcee and the actor's third wife. The church considers Power's marriage to his second wife, act ress Linda Christian, still a valid marriage. His first marriage to actress Annabella was not valid in the eyes of the church. Miss Christian arrived Tuesday night from Paris and New York. Closing Pleas Slated Today In Trial Of Caril Fugate LINCOLN. Neb. (API-Prosecutors and defense lawyers squared off in final arguments today preparatory to placing in a jury's hands the fate of murder de fendant Caril Ann Fugate. The entire day was set aside lor closing pleas. The 15-year-old bVunctte school girl is charged with aiding and abetting her ex-boy friend, con demned killer Charles Starkweath er, in one of 11 killings attributed to him. to answer many questions with "I don't remember" or "I'm not sure." County Alty. Elmer Scheelc asked whether Caril, while she and Starkweather were fleeing to ward Wyoming, had told her boy friend that she loved Ifim. "Yes 1 did," Caril replied. "I was afraid he would kill me." "Did you kiss him," Scheelc asked. "No, he kissed me." Final witness for the state was Miss Christian's and Power's two daughters, Romina Francesca. and Taryn Stephanie, 6, arrived Irom Mexico City where they had been living with their grandmoth er. The children have not been told of their father's death. Miss Christian said Power told her last May that he had a heart condition and then informed her a few days later that the diagnosis was incorrect. She said she urged him to take another examination but that he indicated to her he would rather not know. The actress said she knew of an insurance policy taken out by Power through Lloyd's- of London to provide continued payment of her estimated million-dollar ali mony settlement in their 1955 it-vorce. Caril is charged on two counts 'William Dixon, former Converse with first degree murder and mur der in the perpetration of a rob bery as a result of the death of Robert Jensen, Bennett, Neb., schoolboy. Identical charges brought a death sentence against Starkweather last May. Cross-examination Tuesday failed to unnerve or upset the youthful defendant. She continued County attorney at Douglas, now of Aurora, Colo He testified Caril was told in Wyoming that her family mem bers had been killed. This con tradicted Cards assertion she didn t know until leaching .Nobras ka on the return trip to Lincoln that Starkweather had slain her own family members.

Slating Dignitary Shindig Presents Quite A Problem By BOB THOMAS AP Motion Picture Writer HOLLYWOOD (AP) How do you converse with a queen? Can a princess dance with movie stars? Where does royalty sit in a ball room? These are some of the hundreds of issues a group of Hollywood matrons have been wrestling with lor the past three months. The climax of their struggle comes this Saturday night when the local chapter of WAIF, the international child adoption society, presents its annual imperial ball. Their guests: Queen Krcderika and Trincess Sophia of Greece. You don't just ask a queen to dinner and let it go at that. Ac tress Coleen Gray, local WAIF president, found that out. "Everything has to be planned down to the smallest detail," she explained. "We have consulted the Stale Department. We have read 15 etiquette books. We. have con sulted the queen's grand waitress de la court. "So far we have had only one goof. We sent out the invitations reading Her Majesty rrederika. Queen of Greece." The State De nartment said that would be all right, rather than 'Queen of the Hellenes which people might not understand. The court reminded us of the correct title. At least the State Department shared in our goof. Colecn's struggle began last .June. The Chrysler Corp. agreed to co-sponsor the ball if the WAIF ladies could secure a bona fide member of royalty as guest. Co leen and her aides worked 12 hours composing a letter to Queen Fred erika. It was sent according to proper procedure through the American ambassador in Athens. Weeks, months went by and no answer came. After repeated ca bles, the word finally returned: Yes. the ball would coincide nice ly with the Queen's unofficial visit to the U. S. Then the work began. Coleen said. "We had to find out how to do everything." She had to (ind out U the Queen would dance. The answer was no. Would the princess like to dance? Yes? How would the dancing start? The princess would dance alone on the floor with the leading dignitary, presumably Gov. Good win Knight. Could she dance with movie stars or would she prefer civic figures? Movie stars would he all right if they were "commc modern Greek history on the un likely chance that the Queen might want to talk about same. Despite the hubbub, Coleen admits to en joying it. "I'm just a farm girl from Min nesota," she said dreamily. "Im agine me sitting next to the Queen!" made the statement in a speech prepared for the opening of the -National Conference on Air Pollu tion. Foul air originally was caused largely b burning of coal in homes and industry, Leake said, but now scientific studies show half of air pollution comes from motor engine exhaust. "In addition to eye and respira tory irritation, the increasing in cidence of lung cancer is quite as referable to increased city traffic exhausts as to cigarettes," he said. "When are the auto and truck manufacturers going to turn from the foolishness of fins, from silly style whims, from oversized mod els and from too much horsepower to the essential but tough job of controlling exhausts?" , In another prepared talk, Dr. Herman Hilleboe, New York State health commissioner, also pointed to motor vehicles as a main source of air pollution. He said there were 66,400.000 of them on the nation's highways last year as compared with 40,600,000 in 1948. The conference was called by U.S. Surgeon General Leroy E. Burney. More than 70 air pollu tion specialists, civic leaders and representatives of industrial and governmental agencies dealing with air pollution are participating in the three day sessions. The Public Health Service hopes the participants will agree on a 10-year plan to fight air pollution. Dr. Leake said nuclear weapons testing also is a "potentially very dangerous sort of air pollution, in volving all living things." "One need only spend a few hours in California or Nevada to recognize the growing public ap prehension over radiation fallout," he said. fcTS'o 6 o 5 6"S"S"o i t VSVSVi 0 0 0, STORM WINDOWS Installation Guaranteed F.H.A. TERMS By GAY PAULEY LTI Women's Editor NEW YORK (UPP-Most girls dream of the glamour that goes with a movie career. To Susan Hayward, who made some of iilmdom's biggest hits and big gest headlines, the life was one of being "m a cage. The red-haired actress desert ed Hollywood two years ago. when she married F. Eaton Chal key, a Carrollton, Ga., lawyer and automobile dealer. The cou ple now lives on a 200-acYe farm some 50 miles southwest of At lanta. She has no intention of return ing, except to fill a few more movie commitments. When those are finished, will she quit the movies for keeps? ' That s the general idea, said Miss Hayward. in an interview. 'Hollvwood was like living in a cage. I always felt on exhibit . . . like a traveling piece ot art. Miss Hayward s private lite ot- ten splashed her name across front pages. In April of 1955, she took an overdose of sleeping pills in what police called a suicide at tempt. In November of the same ear. actress Jit Jarmyn cnargea Miss Hayward with attacking her with a hairbrush and lighted cig arette when Miss Jarmyn walked in unannounced on a paiama-clad Hayward and actor Donald Barry. And her divorce battle with Jess Barker, the actor, was a bit terly contested one, although she eventually won custody of their twin sons, Timothy and Gregory. "What's done is done. . .it's all past," the actress said today. "All that helped to sell newspa pers." I asked her whether such head lines also helped "sell" movie stars. "Touche," she answered, and smiled. The actress, born Edythe Mar rener in Brooklyn, went to Holly wood while still a teen-ager, as one of the many unsuccessful candidates for the Scarlett O'Hara role in "Gone With the Wind." But eventually Walter Wanger signed her to play opposite Dana Andrews in the Universal Inter national "Canyon Passage." She since has made a number of box office hits and been nominated four times for an Oscar. She is perhaps best known for her "lost woman" roles the dip somaniac in "Smash Up," Lillian Roth in "I'll Cry. Tomorrow." In town for the premier of her newest film, "I Want to Live." she commented that "the other women weren't really lost. The one I play in this picture is." Sh plays the role of Barbara Graham, the adult delinquent who went to the San Quentin gas chamber in 1955. What of her life now, as a farm wife? "Well, it's hardly two acres," said the star. "We have a lake instead of a swimming pool. I'm usually in either jeans or riding clothes. There's none of that Ho, lywood tension. . .no big problems that have to be settled bang, bang. And to the boys, I'm now mamma, not a movie star alwayt rushing off someplace." "I've been informed, to my Sur prise, that I've also developed, a. southern accent, she saidA "That's quite a switch froitr Brooklvnese. So have my boys. . . they're now 13 and in Georgia Military Academy, iney recKon quite a bit. 'Mv hushand sun introduces me as a Yankee. But I'm such a convert, I think we should have won the war." Reminder Given By Motor Group If your auto license plates ex pire in December, don't get sa preoccupied with Christmas prep arations that you forget to renew them. So says the Department of Mo tor Vehicles, which notes also that failure to renew on time could mean a fine, and that's not nice at Christmas time. To avoid trouble, the department suggests you simply fill in the in formation needed on the back o( your present registration certifi cate, enclose a $10 check or mon ey order, and send the business to the DMV in Salem.
