The public will have a very special musical treat Saturday afternoon at 2:30 o’clock when it will have the opportunity of hearing the Girl Scouts of this city sing Christmas carols at the Court House. Later the girls will be divided into two groups and serenade patients at the Adams county memorial hospital and the county home. It seems like a good idea. o——o Coffee may wake up a drunk but he's still drunk, say the Indiana State Police in the annual campaign for safe driving over the holiday season. In exploding a favorite theory, the police experts inform us that coffee does not drive alcohol out of the system and is not an antidote for it. They still recommend a cup of coffee instead of a cup of cheer as one for the road, but would be a lot happier if coffee was the strongest drink used by drivers. Most of the drinking drivers who manage to live through the holidays probably would be a lot happier too. ——o o The curious methods of Secretary of Agriculture Benson to regulate the farm markets continue. The day after the election, he announced that he would “sharply increase” soil bank payments next year. In the meantime, although 61.2 per cent voted for the soil bank, it was declared insufficient for corn farmers who ' should have had a two thirds majority. Adams county farmers who voted nearly four to one in favor of the soil bank plan, must accept the acreage allotment plan or not participate in the corn program. By the small vote, only 12.82 per cent of the 2,800 total eligible, it was apparent that most Adams county farmers thought it was only a choice between two evils. It looks like the administration's program of making the farmers get a job in the factory to pay their bills is

Among the 900 new music critics created by the concert series there is a wide divergence of opinion as to what they would vote on next year if the series is continued.

Craig will be no bed of roses. With the rest of Gov. Schricker’s balance fast slipping away as state expenditures exceed income, he has now been faced with a three quarter of a billion dollar budget estimate made by the budget committee. He terms it fantastic as it provides for no normal salary raises and among other things omits one of his pet projects, a veterinary school at Purdue University. It makes fio provision for the elimination of the state real estate tax and there is no room for increased aid for cities. To make matters Ahorse, the budget committee announced later it had forgotten one eight million dollar item. Handley has stated he will approve only one tax increase, that on gasoline for road purposes. In addition his supporters have campaigned against taking Federal aid. If he succeeds in balancing the budget without raising taxes he should be voted the miracle man of the year.

Defends Training At Actors'Studio Says Veteran (ctors Could Be Improved HOLLYWOOD (UP) — Hollywood’* veteran kings such as Humphrey Bogart and John Wayne poke fun at the new-style '‘method” actors, but one of them, Anthony Frandosa, fought back today. "They could be better actors,’* Tony said, "if they had taken lessons at the Actors’ Studio.” The New York studio has turned out such leading exponents of the intense, realistic style of acting as Marlon Brando. James Dean, Eva Marie Saint, Karl Malden, Eh Wallach, Franciosa and eVen the new-style Marilyn Monroe. To Bogart, Wayne and the others who are “movie stars” in the traditional Hollywood sense, these stage-bred, serious young actors are mumblers, back-scratchers, nose-twitchers and followers of the tom T-shirt school of acting. “Well, Bogart could have been a better actor if he’d studied at the studio,” retorted Franciosa in his dressing room at MGM where he's been royally welcomed for his movie debut. “Bogart has much more talent than he has ever shown. Gary Cooper is the ideal movie actor—a mobile kind of face. As far’ as Wayne is concerned, I won’t even discuss him.” Franciosa has no fear of prodding the middle-aged stars on the ladder ahead of him, for he already has established a big lame I on Broadway in “A Hatful of Rain." New York-born Tony frankly snipes at the old-time star system in Hollywood which he likens to selling “soap and tomato juice.” “Most movie stars were made stars by publicity, through the old publicity machine,” he said. “Studios constantly bombarded the public with their pictures. It’s the same thing that sells soap and tomato juice. “Now movies are in competition with TV. The product has to be better. Acting has to be better. Actors who knock the Actors’ Studio method are saying that only out of fear and insecurity in themselves.” At MGM, Tony is co-starring with Jean Simmons and Paul Douglas in “This Could Be the Night.” He does not mumble or scratch his nose because the part doesn’t call for it, but he says he would if it did. * Alaska was sold to the U. S. by Russia oh Mar. 30, 1867 for *7,200,000 in gold.

Designers Starching | Fashions For 1957 Forecast Shape Os Women Next Year NEW YORK (UP) — Designers who took the stiffness out of fashions in 1956 are busy starching again for 1957. A group of them peered into their crystal balls today for a forecast of the shape of the female in the year ahead. They decided the soft, clinging look is to be replaced by “some starch in the shape." “But none of the stiffness of a few years ago," said a spokesman for the couture group of the New York Dress Institute. The designers decreed that the 1912 or “My Fair Lady” influence no longer is influential. They now are digging into the 1930 s for inspiration in dresses, suits, hats and other accessories. The Dress Institute spokesman said hemlines will “progress downward” but not drastically for daytime wear. The ankle-length or "demi-longueur” will catch on for evening. The waistline, she added, “will return to normal...the empire is through.” Shoulder shapes will be a bit squarer, but no return of the football padding of the early 40s is expcc tcd “And black...well, black will be almost non-existent,” said the institute forecaster. Instead, the neutral shades will take over, and the various hues of violet will be tops in popularity for spring. s Violet will dominate in the costume jewelry department too. The Jewelry Industry Council forecast an era of muted pastel shades including mauves for spring. White and turquoise will take over ip summer. . Shoe designers expect the pointed toe to go right on into 1957, and one observer forecast more "amusing shoes” —footwork fancier to go with the longer skirts. Millinery also is returning to the 30s for ideas. Babs Vierhaus of the Millinery Institute said the all en- f veloping hat of spring 1956 is on its way out. Coming back are, smaller hats, including cloches, profiles, and straws in a new light material which the designers have dubbed “scuffle.” Atomic Dividend PIERRE, D.

The school and public lands department has received a check for *87.15, the first royalty eve* received by the state, for the mining of uranium ores from school land.
