The Daily Bawwr, Or—ncaaHa, Indiana 9 Manday, April II, 19U ^Autobiographical Role Booked By Helen Hayes
—■ By BOBEBTA BOE8GH - • MANY words hsw been spoken by actress Helen Hayes, eftasi called the First Lady of - the American Stage. She has delivered these In theatres all ever the TV and on tours like ~~ her recent one to the Orient on behalf of the State Department, as weB as In her written works, tochiding “A Gift of Joy”. This is largely an autobiography. But the words from Miss Hayes that I win remember most are these she spoke to me during an hour we spent together at her horns in Nyack. N. Y. View Of Tha Kiver As wa talked by a window overlooking the Hudson, I asked if aha would—as an actress who has played many feminine rrrtea talk to ms for a little while about today's much over- ~ used phrase “modem woman's roles.” “It embarrasses ms te speak like a pundit,” Helen Hayes said. “And I find when I try to do this that I seem te start talking in many directions. “As you know,-1 did that to my book, I knew from the moment I said I would write that I couldn’t do an autobiography unless I were free to intersperse the high points of my life with the feeitalga and thoughts that . earns to me as I went along. ~ “But when you ask about wo- - men and the rotes and oppor- _ tunities they have today, I * Brink it’s understandable that women have these many new rule# that take them beyond tha family circle and makes them mokSers of ether aspects away from home. ; Park Of HeoMkeeping “In a way, I suppose, this is . an a part of housekeeping, it’s an extension, so to speak, of what women have been *Mng all along.

In the end, our children choose the roles that we’U fill for them.” “What about tha discontent that is supposed to be abroad because of the new role of women?” I asked. “Frankly, I don’t think women today are any more discontent than they’ve ever been.” Miss Hayes said. “I think that when they voice the feeling, it’s possible they do it because they’re more free to apeak up today. More Freedom Today “They’re more free in every way,” she added, “to speak up, to take action and to use the gifts they have. "But no matter how escalated our opportunities become,” said Miss Hayes, “I don’t Brink we should ever forget that gentleness and understanding are part of being a woman. “In any role wa fm,” she ayM “we need to remember those traits.”

Police and Secret Sendee agents were alerted to Zinner’s attempt by John Lennon, a newsman for broadcasting station WTOP. Lennon reported his office was called about 9:30 am. by a person who said: ‘Tm a student visiting. I’m going to burn in front of the White House. If you want any pictures, you’d better get there right away.” Secret Service agent Radford Jones and two policemen stationed in front of the White House rushed over to Zinner when they saw him approach the northwest entrance. He had taken two plastic containers of gasoline from a paper bag, and was pouring the fluid over himself. Jones grabbed Zinner as the youth tried to strike a match. Two Bills In Deep Trouble WASHINGTON UPI — Two election-year gifts to the nation’s consumers—the “truth-in-lending” and “ truth-in-pack-aging” bills—are in deep trouble in Congress despite support from President Johnson. As of now, the two measures are locked in Senate committee and it may take all of the President’s well-known powers of persuasion to free them. Even that might not be enough. Senate sponsors of the two bills feel they stand a far better chance in a showdown roll call on the floor than in the committee. TTie House offers no alternative in this case. The understanding appears to be that the House will take no action unless the Senate sends over a trill.
In essence, the two measures are "disclosure” bills:
The truth-in-lending bill would require the lender to state the total dollar amount of the interest and the true annual Interest of the loan.
The truth-in-packaging measure would aet standards for labeling and packaging of su-per-market goods so that the housewife knows exactly the amount she is buying. Both bills have kicked around the Senate for years. They have been stifled successfully—partly due to an intense lobbying effort

Richard D.

It would impose a 10 per cent . .cut in federal highway funds on states that toiled to require - motorists suspected of drunken . driving to submit to chemical tests. . I am inclined to doubt that ^McCarthy’s bill would be very - effective either. There is so ’ much motorized tippling that ^police couldn’t possibly handle it an. What is needed is some sort uf engineering breakthrough along the Hnee of the prototype -Safety car that was exhibited at ' the Capital this week.

The trouble is, it has no equipment specifically designed to cope with sliding drunks, not to mention collapsible drunks, who might get behind the wheel. “ The solution, as I see It, would be for someone to ilrfrign an ejectible drunk.

By BERNARD BRENNER WASHINGTON UPI — The Johnson administration’s move to increase price supports for manufacturing milk and soybeans has drawn fire from two national farm leaders. One thinks the new support levels are too high, the other too low. Charles B. Shuman, president of the American Farm Bureau Federation, said Monday that Agriculture Secretary Orville L. Freeman’s decision to raise milk supports was a replay of the “1961 debacle," when they were increased and dairy surpluses also jumped. He claimed that Freeman’s increase in soybean supports was an “open invitation” to build troublesome surpluses of that crop. “Secretary Freeman obviously is afraid to let the market operate. . . . Both farmers and

consumers have a stake in the effective functioning of the market system. The interest of neither group is served by government efforts to manipulate prices,” Shuman said. But at the same time, Tony De Chant, president of the National Farmers Union, said Freeman didn’t go far enough. “Price support increases announced for milk and soybeans cure too low, and came too late to prevent shortages of these commodities. “Shortages of these and other commodities will continue to occur along with boom-and-bust price cycles until farmers are assured adequate prices,” he said. Freeman last week raised manufacturing milk price supports to 33.50 a hundred pounds, an increase of 26 cents. Soybean supports were raised 25 cents to 32.50 a bushel.
Police Supervision SAN LUIS OBISPO, Calif. UPI—About 200 members of the Hells Angels motorcycle group and their girl friends Spent Easter weekend at Oso Flaco Lake—under the supervision of sheriff's deputies and other law enforcement officers. Deputies said they escorted the cyclists into and out of San Luis Obispo County. Some 100 law officers, including state agents, patrolled the lake area. Several persons were arrested on minor charges and 18 motorcycles were impounded but no major incidents were reported, officers said.
Good Defender Breaks Rules
By Alfred Sheinwold For most bridge players defensive play is a game of Blind Man’s Bluff. Operating mostly in the dark, then stick to the “rules” of good play and hope that the hand doesn’t call for an exception to the rules. South dealer East-West vulnerable NORTH A K54 10983 0 8632 A 108 WEST EAST A AQ763 2 A 1109 V K62 V AS 0 105 0 K974 A Q6 A 9742 SOUTH A 8 V QJ74 0 AQJ A AKJ53 South West North East 1 A 1 A Pass 2 A 3 Pass 4 All Pass Opening lead — A A
When this hand came along a month ago in the national team championship, Edwin Kantar, Los Angles expert, led the ace of spades, Then he thought for a few seconds, since it wasn’t at all clear how to proceed. There was a chance to defeat the contract if East had a fast diamond trick and could give West a diamond ruff. Kantar therefore shifted to the ten of diamonds at the second trick. South won with the jack of diamonds and led a, low trump.

The “rule” told Kantar just what to do. “Second hand low,” he has taught thousands of pupils. Instead, Kantar stepped up with the king of hearts. This was no time to stick to the rules. CONTINUES DEFENSE Kantar continued his defense by leading another diamond. South won and led ' another trump to the ace. Now East could lead a third diamond, and West’s ruff was the setting trick. South would make the contract if West played low on the first round of trumps. East would have to win with the ace of trumps while West still had a diamond. West would not get his ruff, and the setting trick would never materialize. Deciding which hand should win the trick is easy for a declarer who sees his partner’s hand. Only one defender in a million can make such decisions when he has to guess which tricks his partner can win. DAILY QUESTION Partner opens with one club, and the next player passes.
