Swivel Front Seats on 1959 Plymouth ■ ’ a- '' A Hi ■ Ml “ MW J I I '* J I ■ -—x--; I R B j ; I I A major development in automobile Mating arrangements is the introduction of swivel front seats in the 1959 Plymouth. Driver and front seat passenger can now pivot the Mats outward when entering or leaving the car. Each seat pivots independently of the other. The seats swivel when a lever is lifted in the seat shield, releasing a spring which swings the seat outward on rollers a full 40 degrees. The seats automatically lock in place when returned to normal position. An arm rest between the driver and front Mat paSMnger may be folded back when three persons wish to ride in the front Mat.

HOLLYWOOD (UPD — Can George Burns go it alone? Beginning next Tuesday night Burns and the nation’s televiewers will know the answer. That’s debut night for his new, Gracie-less TV series. George himself is unsure about his acceptance as a “single.” “It’s tough for me to come up with something different after 35 years with Gracie,” he reflected. “We’ve filmed eight shows so far, and 1 keep turning around to ask her, ‘How is your brother’?” Checking with his friends for opinions on his chances for success as “lonesome George,” the bespectacled comic* received little help. Here Are The Answers To his question, “can I make it alone?”, he received the following encouragement: Milton Berle: "No. But your cigar can.” Eddie Cantor: “I’ll help all I can. I’ve made stars out of other unknowns.” Greta Garbo: “It’s not an original idea.” Mickey Rooney: “I’ve always looked up to you, George.” Gary Cooper: “You’ve always looked up to me, George.” Groucho Marz: “Why didn’t you quit when you were ahead—after you wrote ‘Annie Laurie’?” Bob Hope: “How many does it take to do a monologue?" Jack Webb: “We’re checking it out with R& I.” Ed Wynn: “You’re an old man, George. You ought to retire.” Jack Benny: “I’ve never had a bad dinner at your house, George.” Gave Private Showing Undismayed by the levity of his buddies, George is happy with NOTICE OF ADMINISTRATION Extatr No. .1303 In the Adams Circuit Court of Axlannx County.

what he’s done in the new series thus far. At a special shewing for United Press International, he ran off the first show in his private projection room. Burns has changed the format completely. He plays himself stranded without Gracie. To make a living he becomes a theatrical producer in a posh Beverly Hills office—which serves as the main set for zaney goings-on with his old cast of characters — Harry Von Zell. Bea Benaaderet and Larry Keating. Still Plays Straight Man Miss Benaderet, looking after Gracie’s interests, plays Burns’ secretary, and Keating (who portrays Bea’s husband) continues as George’s sidekick. Young Ronnie Burn also is a regular member of the cast. "We all miss Gracie, of course,” George said after the showing. “But I’m still playing straight man for Ronnie and the others. “People ask me why I keep working when I could retire and play golf and cards. That’s fine. But you don’t get any applause playing golf and cards. I like to put on makeup — that’s why I’m not quitting. “Besides, I love acting. It’s not work to me — not as long as audiences keep laughing.” Trade in a good town — Decati’’ For Baby Doll Printed Pattern INFANT DOLL V WARDROBE ■ ' n \ a I AV Zwl feghw DOLL J *.

Now Or Never For Governor Handley Defeat In November ' Likely Career End By EUGENE J. CADOU United Press International INDIANAPOLIS (UPD — It’s now or never for Gov. Harold W. Handley. Unless the governor is elected United States senator on Nov. 4, his political career probably will be ended. Regardless of the result, however, the governor has two more years to rule the Statehouse. But the Indiana Constitition prevents him from Seeking two successive gubernatorial terms and there is a ghastly interval before the term of Sen. Homer E. Capehart ends in 1962. During the two-year hiatus from the end of Handley’s term until 1962, he would have no Statehouse sounding board, if he were defeated this fall. He would lapse into the role of an elder statesman. If he should make a speech, the newspapers probably would carry it briefly under the electric belt advertisement or on the classified page. If he should attend a state GOP rally, his oratory would be muzled and he would be Introduced, probably after the nominee for Clerk of the Supreme and Appellate Courts. With the exception of Henry F. Schricker, there is no deader duck that a former governor nimus another political portfolio. In the memory of the writer, Warren McCray buried himself in his Northern Indiana farm. Ed Jackson returned to an apple orchard, Harry G. Leslie sat forlornly in the Claypool Hotel lobby before becoming president of an insurance company, Paul V. McNutt was shunted from ambassadorial to Washington agency head activity before being slaughtered politically by FDR, M. Clifford Townsend took a minor job in the U. S. Department of Agriculture in advance of oblivion, George N. Craig fled to Washington to

There is a remote possibility that a strange turn of the politi- . cal wheel might land the nomic nation for vice-president for Han- - dley in 1960, but this would require a formidable buildup and , infinitely more national publicity i than the governor has received I during this first half of his term. A complete rout of “Modem r Republicanism” would be required > to advance Handley, inasmuch as - his political philosophy is far to t the r.ght of that of Robert A.
