Europe Important Now To Hollywood Younger American Stars Are Unknown By VERNON SCOTT United Fress International ROME (UPD — Europe is more important to Hollywood now than a corral full of glamour girls and matinee idols because it is the lire, pounds, francs and marks that spell the difference betwen financial disaster and money in the bank. .Therefore it is important to movie moguls to know the likes and di s 1 i ke s of European audiences. .—— " As in the United States, Europeans generally perfer wellestablished stars — Clark Gable, Doris Day. Wiliam Holden, Jimmy Stewart. Teen-age idols Elvis Presley and Sal Mineo don’t draw flies over here. The average age of moviegoers throughout the continent is higher than in America where teen - agers largely support the boxoffice. Newcomers are thus tremendously handicapped.

U. 8. Stars Unknown In France "The Long, Hot Summer” bilboards display Orson Wells’ picture and name ‘in bold print, while the film’s stars, oscar-winner Joanne Woodward and her husband Paul Newman, are lucky to edge into the small print. Woodward and Newman aren’t stars in Europe. Neither are their fellow actors studio graduates who currently slobber through screen roles in "realistic” fashion. Musicials also are boxoffice poison here. The Italians, French and Austrians say the lyrics of the songs make little sense to them. 7 Shun Gangster Films Westerns and other rough and tumble films in which brutality runs rampant are ill received by censors. Sex is not offensive to them and neither is nudity. Continentals take the undraped female figure with a shrug. But a maniac with a submachinegun unsettles censors and populace alike. American gangsters films are shunned. Television is making inroads on movies in Europe. And Hollywood is beginning to feel the pinch.

Science Progresses In Study Os Mind Most Difficult Os Riddles To Science < By DELOS SMITH UPI Science Editor NEW YORK (UPI) - Science definitely is making progress with its most difficult riddle, the enormously complicated workings of the humand mind. The proof 'of that is a newly devised technique which keeps minds on an even keel by anchoring them to the stomach or the nose instead of to the eyes. This technique can prevent or cure “black spot delirium." It often seizes people whose eyes are necessarily kept bandaged after surgery and it makes them act as through they were crazy. Their minds had been dependent upon their seeing eyes. Deprived of sight, their minds seem to fall apart. Drs. Avery D. Weisman and Thomas P. Hackett of Harvard Medical School based the technique on the psychiatric understanding that human minds maintain their balance by constantly “testing reality.” Human minds want to know such things as these: What is responsible for that noise I hear? Am T aFhome or at the office or in the street? What is giving off with the distant talk? Is it day or night? Risk Os Disturbances When' you suddenly deprive the minds of seeing people of the eye -way of “testing reality" you’re risking disturbances in their understanding of time and place and what is going on around ithem. “Black spot delirium” folows. Wei sm a n and Hackett substituted the stomach -way and the nose-way of “testing reality” for this eye-way. They worked with six patients 57 to 86 years old who had had surgery for detached retinas, the removal of cataracts, and similar conditions; One man had been an Italian army cook in his' youth. In his mind this was the most glamorous period of his life. He loved spiced foods and coffee mixed with wine. His ’black spot delirium” was dispelled and prevented from returning by the simple "medicine” of the doctor sitting at his bedside, drinking and eating his favorite drink and foods With him, and talking about the dangers and glories of being an army cook. Had Liked Gardening One woman patient had been an enthusiastic flower gardener all her life. The doctor saw to it there were carnations by her bedside, giving off their fragrant “reality testing” scent in her blackened world. Reporting this new scientific know-how through the New England Journal of Medicine, Weisman and Hackett acknowledged that doctors have always known that eye-bandaged patients need “sympathy” and “support from them. But that knowledge is too general, they said: it lacks specifications. Find out what appeals to the patient’s stomach or his nose of his memories beforehand, they advised, and then make use of whatever it is when “black spot delirium” threatens.

i*- -.-s' W- ' ~ w; Y < J,' IN CRACKDOWN—Launching a major crackdown on the New York underworld, the government arrested reputed rackets chieftain Vito Genovese (above, after his arrest) for allegedly violating the federal narcotics laws. U. S. Attorney Pau) W. Williams said the crackdown “could easily drive the Mafia out of th: narcotics business/' Emotional Appeal In Fabric Chosen Women's Selection On Basis Os Appeal By GAY PAULEY UPI Women's Editor NEW YORK (UPD—There’s more than meets the eye to the fabrics we buy. Silk, for instance, is “sensuously and sexually exciting,” says one well known authority on why we purchase what we do. We women select materials not only for coverage, but on the basis of emotional appeal, says Dr. Ernest Dichter, President of the Institute for Motivational Research. Croton-on-Hudson, N.Y. Dichter. says that each of the basic textiles creates a variety of psychological reaction. Writing in the current issue of “American Frabrics,” a magazine for the textile trade, Dichter listed some of fabrics’ effect on us. He further expanded on his observations in an interview. Women Material Conscious "Women especially are almost as conscious of the material they wear as they are of their own bodies,” said Dicther. “Instinctively the woman feels that the material she wears, or its design, reveals her entire personality.” As Dicther has figured us but, we like silk not only because it is “sensuously and sexually exciting” but it is “personal, intimate and revealing,” is the "standard of excelence for refinement,” is a “cool, gracious luxury” and is “regal and exotic.” Cotton. Dicther said, is ‘friendly without effusiveness or ostentation.” indicates “innocence with a promise of underlying sexuality.” is “cool and calm with a promise of hidden inner warmth,” and is “clean and pure.” Wool Called Masculine Wool is “masculine — strong, rugged, protecting, flexible and sexually attractive,” its tough ex•terior implies "a warm, tender life beneath the surface,” it is “sedate, conservative, cultured” and represents a "respectable group life.” Linen, he said, has “the appeal on elegance.” What about the synthetics—the nylons, dacrons and orlons? Dichtr said that “as might be expected, they lack this type of cultural and sensory appeal” alalthough they may acquire it as we ‘become more familiar with them.” "feut today I think perhaps the chief appeal... is their helpfulness for the housewife actually looks forward to the ease of care they promise/’ he said. Vermont Snow RUTLAND, Vt. - (IP> — Thirty-three inches of snowfall in January which came in 12 storms established a new record for the 40-year history of the weather bureau here. The old mark was 22 inches in January, 1954. The lowest temperature was 14 degree below zero and the highest 45 degrees during the month. There will always be enough for today without taking on yesterday’s and tomorrow's burdens. .

Will Dedicate 19th State Park Saturday Lieber State Park Will Be Dedicated More than 8,000 acres of Putnam and Owen county land transformed a few years ago into a flood control project will become Indiana’s 19th state park at dedication ceremonies scheduled sor 1 2 p.m. Saturday. Shortly after that hour, following an address by Gov. Harold W. Handley, a maker designating the area as Richard Lieber state park will be unveiled by two children of the former of Indiana's state park system and founder of the department of conservation. They are Dr. Jeanette Lieer Baker, of Fergus Falls, Minn., and Ralph W. Lieber, Indianapolis. Designed primarily for (flood control and having an unusually favorable storage capacity, the reservoir soon was found to have great additional value for recreational purposes. For this reason the Indiana flood control and water resources commission recommended to the U. S. corps of engineeds that the state undertake recreational development of the reservoir area as part of the Owen-Putpam state forest. Acting upon this recommendation the corps of engineers licensed the department of conservat tioa to and age the reservoir area for recreational use of the land and water areas. Thus was born Richard Lieber state park. In addition to 561 acres owned by the conservation department and operated as a state park, the division of state parks also has jurisdiction of the flood plain—an area between the normal conservation pool and high water. The corps of engineers will continue, adminis. tration of the federal area at the dam, operating the dam and controlling the water level. Dignitaries and special guests from throughout Indiana and nearby states have been invited to attend the dedication,, which will be preceded at 1:30 p.m. by a half-hour concert by the Indianapolis News newsboys band under direction of Henry Hebert. A welcome will be extended by Col. Robert L. Moorehead of Indianapolis, former state senator and World War I overseas army colonel who is chairman of the park dedication committee. He will introduce honored guests. Wayne Guthrie, columnist for the Indianapolis News and long a personal friend of Col. Lieber, will deliver the invocation and mcmbers of Hurst-Collins American Legion Post No. 281 of Cloverdale will post the colors. The newsboys band will play. “Star Spangled Banner." . v._ Introduction of the permanent chairman, James M. Tucker,

' ■ , I Les Parental Worry ' With More Children Indianapolis Couple Rears 16 Children j I INDIANAPOLIS <UPI) —Mothers who think they have ehild-rearing problems should talk to Mrs. Rob- , ert N. Bell. She and her husband, , who is Indiana’s “Father of the Year” for 1958. are midway in the job of rearing a family of 16. This Indianapolis homemaker ' has about desided that the more the children, the fewer the parental worries. Many of the touchy items which - perplex parents of growing children, are settled by the impossibility of concentrating too much attention on any one offspring. “We all help each other,” said Mrs. Bell. "The older ones help with the work and with the care of the smaller children. They never ask for much and they unif they can’t have what terey want.” Head of this bursting-out-the-seams household is Lt.- Robert N. Bill, a 16-year veteran of the Indianapolis police department. He and his wife, Martha, who were fourth grade sweethearts, are the parents of 11 of the 16 children. Relatives Are “Absorbed” Hie others are Mrs. Bell’s nieces and nephews who were absorbed into the family when their own home was broken by divorce and they faced the prospect of being scattered among strangers. Mrs. Bell rejected any thought of honor due for assumption of the extra duties. “It was just the human thing to do,” she said. ‘I wouldn’t have been able to sleep if I hadn’t." She said the children have merged into one big family—mostly happy—with only an occasional spat as conflicts develop. The age range is from two-year-old Maureen Bell to James Bell, 20. now in military service. Oldest child at home is 19-year-old Robert, Jr. who is a copy boy for the Indianapolis Star and contributes part of his earnings to the family income, as do Steve, 17, and Mike, 15, whenever they have part-time { jobs. In between are Karen, 3; Kathy, 5; Stephen, 6; Ann, 7: David, 8; Susan, 9; Janet and Timothy, 10-year-old cousins; Margaret, 11; Jean, 12, and Barbara, 13. They can't all get in the family car at the same' time. Often

they eat their meals in shifts. But Mrs. Bell has discovered she has a family unit that can function when she's away. Last summer she was hospitalized for a month by an operation and “the children just ran the house by themselves.” Job Fits Child “I let each child do the job that suits him or her best rather than follow a work chart. Then they change around as they get tired of doing that job.”. The girls, are fond of baking, and some baking is done every day at the Bell home. When the older boys have outside jobs, the ■at - home children assume some of the work they had been doing about the house. Mr. and Mrs. Bell don't worry about the allowance problem. They never started the practice. “If something comes up they want money for and if they deserve it, we give it to them if we can. But if we can't, they understand.” Trade in a good town — Decatur
