Also that the film company had fled Florida after "an aborted two weeks of shoot ing." Not so, says Frank. "We got Bums wuiiderful stuff down there, he said. "The seen ery is just fabulous and we've got a lot ot it on mm. i don t think it has ever been shown in a movie before. "We came back to Hollywood early because we had finished nearly everything we wanted. The only thing left undone was a scene in a cafeteria. We didn't go through with it because we didn't have enough crowd control." Far from hating Florida, Sinatra wants to go back there.' "I've got a couple of guys look ing for a house for me there," he said. "In another two or three years, I'd like to slow down and arrange my schedule so I can spend at least two months of the year in Florida.

Beck Case Witness Says Loans Never On Ledgers TACOMA, Wash. AP)-Several Teamsters' Union officials other than. Dave Beck Sr. borrowed union funds at times, but Beck's loans never showed on the books, a witness testified Thursday dur ing the former Teamster presi dent's income tax evasion trial. Donald McDonald, once a book keeper who handled the books of about nine Teamsters' Union en tities, told the federal court jury that when Beck told him to write a check on Teamster accounts, he wrote the check "and that was that." The prosecution took each of the union entities for which McDonald kept books and asked if anv ol those showed a loan to Beck. In each case, McDonald an swered "no." McDonald said a number of checks, introduced in court as evidence, were entered on the books as promotion and publicity expenses. I Beck's attorneys have indicated the defense will be based on con tentions Beck borrowed funds from the union and Ihe loans, as such, were not taxable. Beck is charged with evading payment -of $240,000 in income taxes for the years 1950-53. McDonald said other Teamsters officials, including a former can didate for governor of Washington State, borrowed from union treas uries. Those loans, he said, were reflected on the books he kept. The former gubernatorial can didate referred to was identified by McDonald as John C. Steven son, who was defeated as a Dem ocrat in the primary election of 1936. He is now an attorney for a Los Angeles Teamsters' local. McDonald testified Stevenson borrowed an estimated $25,000 from the Western Conference of Teamsters in 1946 and still had not repaid the entire loan in 1953 By DOROTHY ROE AP Women's Editor HOLLYWOOD.

LL- WASHINGTON 'UPD-National space agency scientists said to day that launching platforms at altitudes of 15,000 to 20.000 feet in Tibet would give the Russians a substantial advantage, in mis site and satellite firings. But at the Pentagon, officials expressed doubt whether any mil itary advantage would accrue from high altitude bases.

(AP) A $330,000 livestock feeder yard and packing house will be built here soon, Floyd Uria of Goodine. Idaho. said Thursday. The Idflhn stnf-bman iA tho chamber of commerce's board of directors that the plant will be built by him and William Schaan. owner of the Baker Livestock Exchange. It would have a top weekly can- acity of 500 head of livestock a week, he said. phere is below an altitude of 15,000 feet, and consequently "at mospheric drag'" would be halved. The high-altitude launching si also couid be a tip-oii that Sot scientists are making major gains in development of solid-fuel rock ets. The statements were made through a spokesman for the Na lional Aeronautics and Space Ad ministration (NASA) in comment ing on reports from the Tibetan border that 250,000 Chinese labor er a oic wuiitiug unutu IlUAMan direction to build two dozen launching platforms on the Tibet an plateau, which lies at altitudes of more than 15.000 feet. The space agency exDerts said the reduction in "drag" would ncrease by a substantial percent age the "payload" weight of a satellite that could be launched with a given rocket, and would also substantially lengthen 1 the distance a missile could travel. The Pentagon officials said the principal advantages to the Rus sians would be experimental and possibly psychological. The psy chological effect could boomer ang, however, if the Indian gov ernment should verify the exist ence of such bases and take se rious exception to them. Town Facing School Loss NEW PINE CREEK-Consider able interest has been aroused in the New Pine Creek area over the prospects of losing the seventh and eighth grades at Kelly Creek hchool and even the school itself. if the trend created by the state reorganization school law is not changed by amendment. Parents and other taxpayers at tended a meeting at the school last Thursday evening after a meeting of the school board. Dar- vin Robnett, a member of the local board and also a member of the Lake County nine-man reorganiza tion board, conducted the meet ing. County Superintendent of Schools Anne Sprague answered questions and informed the audi ence what obstacles confronted them in the education of their children. Lake Countv District No. 1. the Kelly School District, falls into the category of a "distressed dis trict," where the taxable wealth runs about $2,608.70 per census child of assessed valuation. Before the Rural District Law was amended in Lake County, a system was devised in which there was 100 per cent equalization with in the districts of the county out side the one first class district, Lakeview. All rural districts shared equally of the county's wealth. The new rural district law stipulates that there can- only be 50 per cent equalization and this money is distributed back to dis tricts on an average daily mem bership basis. The new organization law also eliminates by 1960 all non-high school districts in the county. Non-high school millage tax for Kelly Creek was increased to nine mills this year. This coupled with other drastic changes imposed by the new law has doubled property taxes in the district. A solution may be the consoli dation with Lakeview, which may or may not lower the tax burden of the combined districts. tired of that sometimes. But then he has his own hobby of photog raphy, and when I persuaded him to develop some of my cell photo graphs in his dark room, he got interested too. The Brynner family Yul, Vir ginia and son Rocky, 12 cele brated Christmas the weekend be fore Thanksgiving this year, be fore Brynner left to take over the part of the late Tyrone Power in the movie, "Solomon and Sheba," being filmed abroad. Virginia's present from her famous, shaven pated husband was a sable stole big enough for a blanket. Virginia will miss her dynamic mate while he is on location in Europe, but she won't have much time to waste in moping. She's much too busy with her work. "I find the study of living cells more romantic and dramatic than any part I ever played on the stage," says she. "I got interested in it a couple of years ago when I was looking for something to keep me busy and volunteered for worn at the new hospital here. I was assigned to cancer research, and started out just gathering up test tubes and doing such odd jobs. Then I got acquainted with Drs. Marianna and Francis Ma sin, (Correct) that wonderful hus-band-and-wife research team whose work is getting such great acclaim right now. They started to train me, and I became fasci nated with the work. "Then while Yul was making 'The Journey' in Vienna last year, I went along and studied at the University of Vienna. The Masins arranged for me to take courses in microscopic photography, and by the time Yul finished his pic ture I had earned my degree as a cytologist that means study of single cells. Now I could get a job in any lab in the country." Virginia is a' native Californian who attended the University of California at Berkeley before de ciding to try her luck on the New York stage. She was an estab lished actress, with 30 movies and a number of successful Broadway plays to her credit, when she met lul Brynner. Alter our marriage I never had any desire to go back to the stage or screen, says Virginia "We did do a daily 30-minute TV show together for a while in the early days, when we were broke. But then Rocky was born and I had to stay home and take care of him, because we didn't have enough money to hire a nurse maid. "Later, when the money prob lem was solved, I couldn't bear to turn my child over to a stranger. Now Rocky's in prep school and is only at home on weekends, so I have time for some outside work. That's why I went into this research. And I'm glad I chose that rather than go ing back to acting. No family is big enough for two stars." I bnarinette ! WIFE SWAP EL CENTRO, Calif. (AP)-Mil- ton R. Smalling and William H. Butler have swapped wives. Their wives went to Las Vegas, Nev earlier this week and shared a room while they waited for their divorces.
