THE CHAMP—Joe Murphy, a typical ‘Hoosier farm lad, knows his heart's close to the soil.

Ghouls

WASHINGTON, June 28.—My chore today is to prove that the gentlemen were not, either, ghouls. Two years ago, you may remember, President Truman recommended a law to take care of our vicepresidentlessness, If the President died, the President said, let the job go to the speaker of the house. After the Republicans got in control of congress and elected one of their men as speaker this year, they decide it was a good idea. Their Senator Ken-

- neth Wherry of Nebraska wrote such a bill and

brought it up for a vote. The Democrats didn't like anything about it. And their Senator Alben W. Barkley of Kentucky, tried to veto it. Now go on with the dialogue: “Suppose on Jan. 20, Inauguration .day,” cried Senator B., “the president-elect is ill. He is in a hospital. He is unconscious. He cannot take the oath of office. So the speaker has to resign from congress in order to take the oath as President. And then the President recovers. He goes back to, work. And what have you got?”

He's Not Going fo Resign

YOU HAVE an ex-speaker out of a job, that’s what, thundered the gentleman from Kentucky. + “The speaker is not going to resign for a temdifficulty of a week,” shouted Senator Wherry. ‘“He'd have to,” insisted Senator Barkley. “No he wouldn't,” snapped the gentleman from

< Nebraska. ’ . Senator Barkley tried to retort ironic. He said he

supposed actually the speaker wouldn't have to accept the presidency of the United- States. “That's absolutely correct,” chortled Senator Wherry. “He wouldn't resign to become President for just one week."* “There's no way to force a man to become President,” Senator Barkley agreed, “but no matter how

Another New Game

HOLLYWOOD, June -28.—Exclusively yours: Hollywood has gone crazy over a new parlor game introduced by singer Martha Tilton. You try to guess an actor's performance by double sounds. Easy guesses: Glug-glug—Ray Milland in “The Lost Week-end.” Olank~clank—Ingrid Bergman in “Joan of Lorraine.” Zip-zip—Linda Darnell in “Forever Amber.” Joan Crawford is burning over a national magazine story. She's claiming 33 factual errors, including the statement that “she’s over 40.” Joan says she was 39 last March, ; Sam Goldwyn and Oscar winner Olivia de Havilland are huddling on a new movie, ; Columbia studio is paging Bob Crosby for three films. : Rex Harrison and his wife, Lilli Palmer, sail for London Aug. 16. ‘Harrison wil] star in a British movie, “Escape.” .

Bob's Face Turns Pale

BEFORE LEAVING for South America, Bob Hope suggested that Paramount might sign Ginger Rogers to play Calamity Jane opposite him in his western satire, “The Paleface.” But Bob found out that Ginger was much too expensive, She wanted $300,000 in cash and 25 per cent of the picture's gross up to a certain figure. That left Bob with a pale face. Merian ©. Cooper, who filmed “King Kong,” has formed a new film company to produce a series of similar horror features. The first will be about a white hunter in Africa. Add minor mysteries: Last year Anne Baxter had to sign a long-term contract at 20th CenturyFox to get the role of Sophie in “The Razor's Edge.”

We, the Women

A MIDWESTERN city recently announced that it wanted to get rid of an assortment of brass cuspidors long relegated to storage. The cuspidors sold like hot cakes—as any reader of home decoration magazines might have predicted. " To the enthusiastic followers of decoration journals #n old cuspidor would be a real challenge.

Just an Old Cuspidor _ WHAT TO DO with an old cuspidor—now that spitting is a horrid word? How best to turn it into an “amusing conversation piece”—as the women’s magazines say? Think of the exciting possibilities! Should it be polished up and filled with cut flowers—a center-plece for the dining room ‘table? Or planted with trailing

Yesterday Joe's mother asked him if he was grinning when his prize lamb brought $6 a pound.

Earns $1000 a Year

“I SURE WAS,” he said. “When the bidding was $1 a pound I started grinning, and when it reached $6 I was practically laughing.” Joe figures he earns an average of $1000 a year through the sale of wool, his winnings at shows, and the sale of lambs. “I buy all my clothes and have some money to spend on the things I want. But most of the,money goes in the bank” All of the profits are shared with his younger brother who helps feed the livestock and take care of the farm. The lanky sun-burned youth knows what h¢§ wants to do in the future. + Whether it be teaching agriculture or just plain farming, Joe knows his heart's close to the soil. “I'd sure like to own a farm of my own.” His eyes fairly glistened.

«briefly he acted as President, he’d have to resign from congress.” S80 there was some more palaver. Numerous Democrats offered amendments to thwart President Truman's ideas. And here was Senator Barkley with another question. “Suppose the President becomes insane?” he asked. “Even if he were tried by a lunacy court and committed to an insane asylum, there is no law that would hold him to be disabled.” He said there ought to be a law. Senator Wherry said, what kind of law? Senator Barkley said that ought to be investigated. “Investigated?” repeated Senator Wherry. “This subject was investigated by congress until it was exhausted in 1856. We studied it again in 1886. We're still studying it.”

Meant to Cast No Slurs

SENATOR RICHARD B. RUSSELL of Georgia, another of President Truman's Democratic foes, said he meant to cast no slurs, but he’d prefer the president pro-tem of the senate any time to the speaker of the house as president. He said history'd show that

made his motion formally and this put the linensuited pro-tem Arthur H. Vandenberg in something of a spot. Mr. Vandenberg walked off his platform so he could make a speech. He said the issue was impersonal. “And not a popularity contest,” he added, glaring at the Democrats. He said the speaker of the house ought to be President whenever we run out of presidents and vice presidents. So be it. The Republicans voted down the Democrats in support of President Truman. If the house agrees, as expected, we'll not have to worry about the president shortage.

The part won her an Oscar. She hasn't worked in a Fox picture since. Director Mitch Leisen’s new ‘deal at Paramount makes him one of the five highest paid directors in Hollywood. Prediction: The next novelty record hit will be Carmen Miranda's singing of “Don't Talk to Me Expensively, Talk to Me Cheap.” Mike Todd, in New York, is carrying a torch for Joan Blondell. Gregory Peck is producer Benedict Bogeaus' No.'1 choice for “The Magnificent Yankee.” Louis Calhern, of course, isn't the type.

Unwelcome Guesis?

TWO MONTHS ago I told you about plans for a national convention of movie fan club presidents in Hollywood in June. Then I had to report, with embarrassment, that the studios decided not to cooperate with the fan clubbers, that.there would be no red carpet, no studio visits, no nothing. ' But the fan club presidents went ahead with their plans. One hundred and fifty of them are meeting in Hollywood. Hollywood is doing nothing to entertain them. I guess as far as Hollywood is concerned, fan club members are just people who buy tickets. Dress designer Harry Finer is wagering that the Tommye Adams-George Jessel marriage will take place despite denials. Finer says he wasn't dreaming the day Jessel helped Tommye select a trousseau. David O. Selznick and his wife Irene are having settlement talks—prior to a divorce, ' She's due to get a couple of million at least. Talking about a certain actor, Jack Carson said: “He's suffering from a terrible inferiority complex because none of his friends hate him.”

‘How about setting it in the entrance hall ad an umbrella stand? Maybe it would be more “amuse-~ as a table lamp, or cut in two and used as a pair of stunning” wall brackets? . There's no limit to the possibilities of an old cuspidor to the women who play the game of junk into-something-amusing. ’

There Is No Limit

LIKE ALL games this one has its rules.. The junk has to be picked up for “practically nothing,” preferably in such condition that no one else would have seen its possibilities.

Youth Camp Located On 72 Rolling Acres

By VICTOR PETERSON Times Staff Writer COLUMBUS, Ind. June’ 28.—Created for the young people of Bartholomew county, the Foundation For Youth camp is rapidly becoming known nationally,

Located southeast of Columbus, the camp consists of 72 rolling, forested acres. Down in a valley lies a. gleaming nine-acre man-made lake. It is a paradise for youngsters who feel the call of the outdoors when schools close for the summer.

And they answer this call, Every summer some 400 to 500 county youths attend the camp. If there is any available space left it is given to other Hoosiers. Then follows camp admissions for out-of-staters. » " ” THE CAMP is unique in that youths need not belong to any specific organization to attend. -

The summer is divided into seve eral camping periods. The first two weeks, closing now, were for Bartholomew county Boy Scouts. All boys who are not scouts will be wel« comed from tomorrow through July 13. Then the Girl Scouts will take over for two weeks, followed by another two-week session for all girls, Special camping periods often are held at the close of the regular season. A fee of only $10 a week is charged county youths. Outsiders are billed for $14. The reason the camp can be run so economically is that the Foundation holds a yearly fund drive. Last year the campaign netted $22,000. Of this, only $2600 went for camp upkeep. ® o's THE CAMP is but part of the Foundation which operates for the general well-being of the youngsters. Included in the Foundation are the Boys’ club, Girls’ club, Boy and Girl Scouts and the Teen Canteen,

Turner, commanding officer of the army's rocket proving grounds here, said today that the discs must have been jet airplanes. But Mrs. E. G. Peterson of Seattle sald no—she and her son also saw them,

Didn't Look Like Jets “They didn’t look like jet ships or anything else I ever saw before,” Mrs. Peterson said, * “Seemed to Flutter” “They were shiny, and seemed to be fluttering In the wind. We must have watched them for five minutes before fhey disappeared, go! east.” ¢ Several other residents reported seeing them in the area. The eyewitness statements were music to the ears of Mr. Arnold, who has been the butt of no little ribbing ever since he told of seeing the circular gadgets whipping along at 10,000 feet near Mr. Rainier in southern Washington. If he and others actually saw the saucers, the machines must. really have been covering ground. - Reported Above Joliet - Mr, Amold said he saw them about 3 p. m. (PST) Tuesday.
