Different Life Now For Stars Os Films By VERNON SCOTT United Press International HOLLYWOOD (UPD—There was a time when a movie glamor girl had nothing to worry about except showing up for work. Under contract to a studio she was babied, pampered and protected from the rest .of the world If she got a traffic ticket it was fixed. If she fractured her boyfriend’s skull it was hushed up She could even get a marriage annulled with no one being any the wiser. Her children could be kept out of sight in order to maintain the single-girl image shaped by the studio. Good OM Days "Those must have been the good old days,” Carol Lynley said during an interview at 20th Century-Fox "A girl had everything done for her without effort.” Carol is about 20 years too late to enjoy an era where super-stars were treated as if they were royalty. But in many ways they were also serfs to th<‘ studios who owned them outright. A leading star could never speak out in favor of a political candidate (as Carol does'. She could be ordered to date her leading man to publicize a picture. And she couldn't slip out of her contract without commilling suicide, "It's true, we have more freedom today, but less security." the little blonde beauty said during a break in "The Pleasure Seekers." More Tlian Taxes “And they got to keep more of their money. It's not only the taxes these days. We have to hire a business manager, a personal manager, a tax accountant, an agent and lawyers. "In the old days the studios .-took care of all those f un c t ions and saved the stars a fortune ” "Just think of the security they used to have," C3r o I sighed. "Even when they weren't working in a picture they were paid by the studio. There were never any worries about where they'd be working next." Brecht Store Is In New Location The John Brecht Jewelry store, formerly located at 226 N. Second St., was opened for business this morning at its new location in the recently - remodeled Holthouse Drug Co. building. The new location is in the rear of the Holthouse Drug Co., with the door on the north side, across the street from Indiana A Michigan’s office. Mrs Brecht will also operate her beauty salon, Margaret's Beauty Booth, from the same location. Brecht has been in the jewelry business for a number of years. He was employed with Baber Jewelry in Decatur more than ten years ago. and spent two years in an Auburn jewelry store before opening his own store here in 1955. Brecht opened the store on N. Second street and was located there until Wednesday and ’Dnirsday, when moving to the new building was completed. Boy Slightly Hurt As Bike Hits Auto A young Decatur boy suffered minor injuries in a car-bicycle accident at the intersection of Third and Marshall streets at 12:15 p. m. Thursday.

He had ridden his- bicycle into the northbound car as the auto, was in the intersection, anti tlie boy was westbound on Marshall street.

’ * w® (iNrMNMaI Uwrtoena ] ffsnahy School Lsm— Leaders Need Help Lenon for July 26,1964 Bible Material: Exodua 15:22 through 15:27. Devotional Reading: Paalm 20:1-1. PRIMA DONNAS are hard to get along with. It’a hard to [be in the same house with one, i hard to be on a committee or a team with one. A real original i prima donna is a singer (the (name means First Lady) who

does soprano parts at the opera. They are notoriously temperamental. They mako It rather bard for the other members of the cast. They don’t like to ishare a scene, they want to dom-

■tin Dr. Foreman

inate IL Now prima donnaa in ordinary life are like that They have plenty of talent, perhaps even geniua. But they do not work well on a team. They are star perfonnera and they know IL But there la a difference between a superior performer and a performer who can't forget that he is superior. Leaders Need help | There is a difference between; prima donnas and leaden. The p.d. is admired, but that's the end of it The boys in the school yard may admire a boy who can stand on one hand. But if they don't all try to do the same, he’s not a leader. A leader is followed. Now some of the greatest' mistakes in history have occurred when leaden have tried to be prima donnas, or vice versa. Hitler was a tint-class prima donna; I but he called himself a Leader.' He seldom would listen to advice.. God’s leaders You might think that God’s! leaders would not need help, but[ they do. Don’t they have the help i of God and isn’t that enough?' No; God's providence calls on , other men to rally behind leaden. Not even God's chosen leaden can lead without help of any kind. This is true of your local minister; where is the church that can get on without a committee or board or council or session or vestry or some group of leaders from the congregation to help the ministar? It was true of Moses too. There was a man of God if ever there jwas one: Immortal in human (memory as one of the greatest Headers in all history ... yet even he was tempted to play prima donna. Because he could do anything better than most others, he tried to do everything. Because he was a good judge, none belter, he made the attempt to judge everything. Now every man has his limitations. No man. for example, can do more than be has time to work in. Even if his powers were unlimited, which they are not, he cannot do in ten hours what calls for twenty hours to do it right. Ministers have been known to suffer ncrvoiis breakdowns because they thought they did not need help; and Moses was headed for the same kind of trouble, Hill old Jethro gave him the ad'vice which saved the situation. , The hswllity of a loader : Moses was one of the best educated men of his time, and 1m- ' menscly superior to the other Israelites. Jethro, his old fatherin law, was on the other hand, one of the most ignorant of men. He had never lived, so far as we [know, outside that rocky wilderness. When he ventured to give : Moses advice on how to handle ! the crowds that came before him ' from dawn to dark, demanding his decision on innumerable prob- ' letns large and small, Moses did (not brush him off. Moses listened; i one of the humblest acts recorded of any leader in history. It was a humble thing old Jethro advised him to do, too. Appoint1 ing subordinate judges to help ' solve Hie people's problems would be, in away, governing by committee, and we can imagine Moses had no great liking for that. But the mere admission of others (none in his class, either) to the administration of national affairs would tie admitting he could not do it all. Well, even the greatest have to admit it: they arc not superhuman, and though they are God’s men, there are no more hours in a day for them than for any one else. The great man may : accept help grudgingly, but God's leaders accept gratefully. They 'take helpers as God's gift and not as insult ~~|F ■. •:.

Appalachia Bill Action Delayed To Next Week WASHINGTON (UPD - Administration supporters trying to pry President Johnson’s Appalachia bill oAt of the House Public Works Cofnmittee were further frustrated today when not enough members showed up for a scheduled meeting. Th is delayed action on the $1 billion measure until next week. Thirteen Democrats and three Republicans appeared for a scheduled closed session. Committee rules require that at least 18 members must be present in order for the panel to take any action. Rep. Clifford Davis, D-Tenn. acting chairman of the group, told a reporter he was not sure when the next meeting would be held. He mentioned Monday or Tuesday as the earliest possibility. The committee is made up. _ of 20 Democrats and 14 Republicans. Asked if the Republicans had boycotted today’s session, Rep. William C. Cramer, R - Fla., a leading GOP critic of the bill, answered no. Republicans are utilizing every parliamentary device, including a full reading of the measure. They claim that the administration is try in g to “steamroller” the bill through the committee without hearings and adequate consideration of recent revisions. Democrats had hoped Thursday to clear the bill through subcommittee and the full committee. They managed the subcommittee hurdle, but a noon session of the House prevented them from winning full committee approval. The House was in recess today. The measure they hope to send to the floor is a $1 billion plan to invigorate the economy of some 349 counties in 11 states comprising most of the eastern region known as Appalachia. The 11 states are Alabama, Georgia. Kentucky. Maryland, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina. Tennessee, Virginia, and West Vir* ginia. A total of $23742 million in the bill would be spent over a two-year period to develop the area's natural and human resources. The remainder of the money - $845 million — would go to build and improve highways in the region. Closing Argument By Hoffa Defense CHICAGO (UPD — The chief defense attorney for Teamster boss James R. Hoffa winds up his dosing argument today and after final instructions from U. S. District Court Judge Richard B. Austin the marathon fraud case will go to the jury. Hoffa and six non defendants are charged with fraudulently obtaining $25 million from Teamster union pension funds and diverting $1.7 million of the amount into their own pockets. Maurice J. .Walsh, who broke his leg during the three-month-long trial, sat on the prosecutor’s table Thursday while defending Hoffa from the government charges. “I don't think there is any question that every effort in this case is being made to get Hoffa." Walsh told the jurors. He said chief government prosecutor William O. Bittman “is a young man who wants to make his mark by being a giant killer, he wants to kill this giant " Walsh said it was ridiculous to believe that one man — Hoffa — could "pull the wool over . /the eyes of" 15 other pension A fund trustees by ■ devising ° a ■complicated fraud scheme. "Were they so dumb pr corrupt they went whatever way he went?” Walsh asked. "The government has the audacity to ■ contend that Hoffa controlled every one of these men, heckled them around and used them as pawns,”Hie attorney said if it were true that Hoffa could push the other trustees around, he could have simply ordered them to put money into the Sun Valley. Fla., housing project without creating a complicated fraud scheme. The government,, has contended that the alleged fraud scheme was devised to bail Hoffa out of the financially 1 plagued Teamster retirement project in Fk>4uda The proseTution said Hoffa iiad staked funds from his Detroit local r>n the success of the Sun Valley project.

TRUE FELLOWSHIP Rev. James R. Meadows Church members need fellowship and need what the fellowship has to offer them. At the same time the fellowship needs what they have to offer. These is no greater error in absenting one’s self from a church service than that of keeping from other mem- ' bers what one has to contribute and what members Os the fellowship need.
