ACK t-A HERALD AND NEWS, KUnulh Fulli, Ore. Thursday, OcQr I, 1N1 Philosopher Deplore Attft's' ffort To Be Childish Cir?e DURHAM, N.C. (AP)-A Johns Hopkins philosopher today de plored what he termed efforts o( American adulU to be "childish ly cute" despite their age. Speaking at a Duke University sympsium on health and other1 problems of children, Dr. George B. Boas said: "Actually, adults have tried to return to the state of childhood while incapable of reversing their physical growth. In this connection he criticized the "pathetic efforts which we Americans, more than any other people, make to be as little chil I Open 6:45 Start 7:00 1 A" aul',entlC films taken I J from secret 111 UTLER'S Rlf and Rulnll couiutii nctmu mm I 6MC LETS THE BAM DOWN I j dren: Our refusal to admit our age, our delight in childhood en tertainments, our artificial youth- fulness, our love of 'the cute. He spoke at a symposium de signed to Introduce this novel con cept: The world's one billion chil dren constitute a single unit a 'commonwealth of children," transcending all national, racial and cultural boundaries and that all of them need better support from their elders If world peace is to be achieved. Speaking on the subject "What1 Is a Child?" Dr. Boas said: "Pe diatricians have their own fon cepts of childhood. At the Johns Hopkins Hospital lor instance, it was once agreed that a person ceases to be a child at the age of 14... But a person may stop being a psychological child without ceasing to be attached to his old doctors, and heightened by new ones. The use of age groups has Sympathy OffeltedP To 'Frailly Cats been a great convenience to schoolteachers and statisticians, but it has been only a convenience." In a talk Wednesday night, Dr. Grayson Kirk, president of Co lumbia University, said that the Soviet Union cannot be entirely blamed for the world's troubles. He declared that a "world revo lution" has been under way for some time, with some develop ing countries choosing a mixed economy and rejecting features of both communism and capital ism. Dr. Kirk added that today's American children must realize that "though the Soviet Union is today a great and ever-present danger to the Western world, much of the trouble and con fusion of our day 'would have existed in about the same form if the Romanoff (non-Communist) dynasty still ruled in Moscow." 7-Y ear-Old Girl Shin During Errand For Daddy ELMHURST, IU.

Elliott had sent Yvonne to a store five blocks from their home in this Chicago suburb to get him some cigarettes. "It was still light outside, I thought nothing of it. My God, this Is awful." he said. When Yvonne had not returned from the store an hour after she left home, Elliott told deputies, he walked down the street and found her bicycle alongside a field of tall weeds. He ran home and telephoned his wife. Loretta, 24, who was at work. Then he and a neighbor set out with flashlights lo search the field. Elliott said his wife arrived at the field just as he came upon his daughter s body.

The hearing was called to air, a complaint of representatives ot the Los Angeles firm of Milton Wershow that the board olli- cials had said that firm should, not he permitted to conduct the auction. Isadore Winklcman, Board chairman, categorically denied the charge that such a letter went out over his signature as charged. He said that Clifford Alterman, attorney for Wershow. and h,d Potter, Portland representative of the firm, failed to produce such a letter at the stormy hearing. A letter did go out, Winkleman said, protesting that Oregon auc tioneers had not been given a chance to conduct the auction. Winkelman said both of the representatives of the Los Angeles firm are on the OMSI committee and he said they did not offer Oregon auctioneers a chance to conduct the auction but had solic ited their cooperation. What irked the Oregon acution cers, Winkleman said, was that the firm employs no Oregon auc tioneers and brought in its auc tioneers from Los Angeles. band is a good man but he has a short temper le has so many fine qualities that I lorgive his little blow-ups.

The neighbor got right into the argument 'on my side I and I could have brained her. She made George a lot mad der than he would have been if she had just shut up. He finally told her to keep her big nose out of other people s arguments. The woman left mad. My hus band says he can't stand her and if she never comes into our house again he II be happy. Do you think I owe her an apology IDA Dear Ida: No. Real friends don't hang around to watch family fights. Your neighbor lhould have left after the first sign of a rum ble. Becoming Involved was Inex cusable. She earned whatever George said to her. Dear Ann Landers: I'm a wid ow with three children. Several months ago I met a man who treats me just wonderful. He has asked me to marry him when his divorce becomes final. His wife is stubborn and it may be a while yet, but we've decided not to let that interfere with our happiness. He has taken me and the chil dren on some very educational trips. He buys them presents and they are fond of him. Every week end he docs odd jobs around the house, just the way a husband would. For my birthday he gave me a beautiful leather purse and inside was a $50 bill. My oldest daughter says I should not accept it. I do not agree with her. After all, I've had him 'here for weekends, I've cooked for him and done his laundry. If he wants to give me a few gifts in return I feel I should accept them. Who is right? RESPECTABLE Dear Respectable: Your signa ture doesn't match your story. The man you've been traveling with, cooking for and entertaining In your home weekends is mar ried. Give the purse back and the man also to hit wife. WASHINGTON (AP) Actors and audience hailed a hiTioric performance of Shakespeare at the0 White House Wednesday night.

The pressure of the last week makes it so I just can't take it any more, he told reporters. Mayor Asks Film Picket PORTLAND (AP) The mo tion picture, "The Lovers" opened at a Portland theater Wednesday and Mayor Terry Schrunk called for volunteers to picket the film. Schrunk said the film was ob scene and asked the district at torney tn file a charge of ob scenity against the theater owner. The film was closed by city authorities last spring when city police censors viewed the French film and said it was obscene. Theater manager Nancy Welch Allen fought the decision and the stale Supreme Court recently overturned the ban on the film. While not specifically declaring the city ordinance unconstitution al, the court indicated that it might be. Schrunk said because of this he asked the district at torney to use a state law against obscenity. The film was shown Wednesday! in a different theater, owned by Mose Mesher. Mesher made this statement: "The Lovers is a motion pic ture of foreign origin. All foreign films are carefully screened by the cusloms service. Obscene films will not get past the customs. This film was so screened..." Attendance al the opening was normal for a Wednesday after noon, Mesher said. "It's beyond human endurance Childers' retirement, effective immediately, caught city officials and members of the 786-man po lice force by surprise. Safety Manager John M.

Thirty-five present or former Denver police officers have been charged in connection with a wave of burglaries dating back to 1947. Only last Saturday, when new charges were disclosed against 22 men. Childers told reporters: "I've never been tagged as a quitter, and I'm not going to quit now." But his doctor and his wife convinced him, he said, to end 45 years of police work, including 23 months as chief. His resignation was accepted with reluctance by Mayor Dick Battcrton.

Other excerpts were from "Henry V." "As You Like It," and The Tempest." In the audience and called on by President Kennedy for a bow was the British actor. Sir Ralph Richardson. He has done a hit of Shakespearean acting himself and found Wednesday night's event most gratifying. Kennedy jokingly suggested that when Richardson returns to England he tel his countrymen "there is an American author named Shakespeare who is worth playing over there." Tje President also paid tribute to tne Slratford theater, saying it gave him great satisfaction that such an American enterprise was providing Shakespeare for all of the American people. The guests sipped champagne and Kennedy puffed a cigar as they watched the performance on a specially made stage of plat forms and maroon-colored velour screens which was to he tucked away in the White House for future use. i It took two days to get things set up and director Jack Landau reported the White House staff proved "a model of efficiency" as slage hands.
