upset. He said doctors determined
she had lost her baby early this

the exact lime the miscarriage
occurred.
Miss Monroe, who married Mill
er in 1956, was five or six weeks
pregnant when she lost her first
baby Aug. 1, 19.57.
Wolhandler said she became
pregnant again last September
while making a movie. Her doc

described as a calculated risk
Miss Monroe finished the picture

Last Sept. IS, she was taken to
a Hollywood nospilal when she

overwork.
On the advice of her phvsician.
Wolhandler said, Miss Monroe
had cut out all social affairs and
turned down normal publicity de

The Oregon Air Pollution Au-
Ihorily said Wednesday that for
several days air pollution here
lias been as much as 2'i times
higher than the nuisance level.
It has gotten so bad, said au

that the air here is even dirtier
than in smoggy Los Angeles.
Hatcher said the pollution was
caused in part by a fog that
helped suspend soot, dust and ash
over the city.

400 Scouts
Help Promote
New Movie
By BOB THOMAS
NEW ORLEANS ( API-Well, It
was a tough fight, but the red
coats lost the battle of New Or
leans again;
They tried, but the cards were
stacked against them. So, with a
ruffle of drums and a sound of
trumpets, they retreated, carry
ing along the wounded. Exhaust
ed, they went home to bed.
The re-enactment of the battle
of New Orleans by 400 Cub Scouts
was part of the hoop-de-dn for the
world premiere of "The Buc
caneer," which also happens to be
about the battle of New Orleans.
The publicity mind never sleeps,
and the Paramount boys had a
ball with this one.
The premiere party, led by
actress lnger Stevens and produc
er Henry Wilcoxen, was carried
to the Chalmette battle site by
the civic yacht, Good Neighbor.
The only trouble came when the
Good Neighbor tried to dock near
a dredger, lost a propeller in the
latler's cable and came within
a foot of drifting into the dredger's
boom. "The mayor ain't goin' to
like that," a crewman observed.
Thl welcome parly included a
covey of bare-shouldered Southern
belles who wore ball gowns, red
sashes and goose pimples.
Oh, it was a grand fight!
On the American side were pint
sized pioneers in coonskin hats
and buckskin, fine - feathered In
dians, as well as Andy Jackson's
blue-coated regulars. The redcoats
were equally impressive in their
bright uniforms: there was even
a platoon of kilted "ladies from
heck."
The Americans hugged the levee
and held their fire while the red
coats charged forward with their
wooden muskets tipped with rub
ber daggers. Bang! Bang! Bang!
tne attackers didn t have
chance.
"British, retreat!" shouted an
adult redcoat. There were dead
soldiers all over, but the only real
casualty was a den leader who
burned his fingers lighting a fire
cracker for sound effects.
AF Keeps Eye On Trains
While Launching Missiles
VANDENBERG AFB. Calif.
'L'PIl The Air Force today ex
plained how it expects to conduct
regular missile and space vehicle
launchings here while keeping a
sharp eye peeled for both sched
uled and unscheduled trains run
ning through the launch area.
The fact which caused some
embarrassment during the first
West Coast Thor IRBM launching
here Tuesday is that the Air
Force admittedly "doesn't always
know the schedule lor trains
corning through on Southern Pa
cilic Railroad's main line.
But, as First Missile Division
commander Maj. Gen. David
Wade pointed out, "neither does
the railroad."
Passenger trains are on the rail
road schedule which the missile
men must consult in order to con
duct launchings. But freight trains
are not and the railroad explained
it is impossible to schedule them.
While explaining this matter,
Air Force officers maintained a
patient attitude toward jokes
cracked by some newsmen who
Sailor Dies
In Mid Ocean
SAN FRANCISCO (UP1) - One
Coast Guardsman was swept to
his death and 11 others were in
jured Wednesday when a "single
tremendous wave" washed over
the cutter Gresham in Mid-Pacilic.
Coast Guard authorities here
aid five of the injured men were
in serious condition, and the body
of the man washed overboard was
not recovered. Names of the men
were withheld pending notification
ot next ot kin.
' The accident occurred at Sla-
lion Romeo, 2,400 miles west of
ban francisco and about halfway
between Hawaii and the Aleutian
Islands.
The Gresham. from Alameda.
Calif., had arrived to relieve the
culler Klamath, from Seattle,
Wash. The wave struck while mail
was being passed between the ves
sels. Other waves had been run
ning about 19 feet high, with wind
of 40 miles an hour.
The Gresham was ordered to
continue to Midway Island with
tne injured men, while the Klam
ath remained on station.
Public Given
Yule Present
SEASIDE, Ore. (API A tree
more than 500 years older than
the United States Wednesday was
given as a Christmas present to
the public.
The tree, on the Crown Zelles
bach Corp. tree farm near Sea

tree park.
The giant tree is more than 700
years old, 195 feet tall and 15

area during final countdown pro

When the third train appeared
on the tense scene and lazily
rolled past the Thor launch pad
at less than half the 8,000-foot dis
tance at which newsmen were
kept, one oflicer slapped his head
and groaned, "Oh, no!'
A newsman cracked. "What hap
pens now if a small dog runs
out?"
The Strategic Air Command, an
xious to have its first Thor firing
look good, hustled newsmen to the
press observation site in plenty of
time for a 12:15 p.m. launch, but
was unable'to fire until 3:44 p.m.
Most newsmen missed lunch ex

the scene.
Air Force spokesmen stressed
that the trains played only a par
tial role in the numerous "holds"
which delayed the firing. They
said most of the postponements
during the 3'i hour period were
due to technical difficulties en
countered in equipment or pro
cedures none of them serious.
If a train appeared during a
"technical hold," its passage ad
ded to the length of the delay,
spokesmen said.
Gen. Wade said following the
successful launch thai there were
no plans to change tiring routine
or anything else, adding, "we do
not plan to move the railroad.

WASHINGTON (UPI) Ameri

as much as what they had last
year.
The Commerce Department re
ported Wednesday night that per
sonnl income this year rose an
estimated Vi per cent higher
than last year mostly due to
higher federal benefit payments.
However, the department said
the increase failed to offset a 2'
per cent increase in the cost of
living.
The report underlined that the
dollar has continued to shrink in
value a situation that has
caused Senate Democratic lead-'
ors to call for a full investiga
tion of means to curb inflation.
The report also bolstered the
view of government economists
who believe the nation's economy

tions and is poised on the thresh
old of expansion to new highs.
One top-level source estimated
that the gross national product

months of the year.

justed to allow for price In-'

below the mid-1957 record.
The Commerce Department
based its full-year estimates on
