.HOOdlums Beat .Up'' Vancouver

. VANCOUVER, B. C. CP), Gangs of teen-age hoodlums, who take delight in a fight and do not heSi- tate to use a knife of a blackjack on their opponents, are getting special attention from civic au- thorities.
 Some groups, including the Ca nadian Legion, have offered to form vigilante groups to meet the hoodlums "fist to fist"
 Their offer has been rejected, however, by Mayor Ch arl e S Thompson, who directed the city police to detail a special squad to handle the gang wars that have reached a new tempo in the past month.
 The gangs, numbering from 10 to 200, identify themselves in bat tie by various insignia. Some shave their heads apache style; others wear single ring in one ear; others simply don jackets with the gang name.
 Many of their all-out battles have resulted in knife wounds and body and head injuries from boots and lead-Weighted black jacks. Stolen cars frequently pro- vide the transportation.

Just Tired Being Rich Mans Son"

LONGVIEW, Wash. (P)-A IA year-old boy who identified him self as Richard Dix, Jr., son of the late movie star, was enroute back to Los Angeles today, accompan- jed by juvenile police officer in the Dix family car.

 Benefiel said the boy talked to Mrs. Dix in Los Angeles by tele- phone Wednesday. The car in which the two boys were riding was registered to the Los Angeles woman. Friends of the family de- nied in the California city, how ever, that young Dix was out of town.

May Maintain
 Shemya Jointly

WASHINGTON, (P) - A plan may be worked out for joint main- tenance of the air force base at Shemya in the Aleutians, Senator Magnuson D.-Wash) said last week.
 Delegate Bartlett of Alaska char acterized the air force decision to abandon its Westernmost base as a physiological as well as a military mistake.
 Magnuson told a reporter he is investigating several pos b e ways of keeping the base in oper- ation. He said it is too valuable from a military standpoint, for handling mail for the Far East, and as a stopover for commercial flights, to be abandoned.
 He said he plans to discuss the matter with the state and post office departments, with the Civil Aeronautics Administration and with commercial airlines to see If a cooperative plan can be worked out.
 If necessary, Magnuson said, he will take the problem to the White House.
 Bartlett already has protested to the defense department, calling it a mistake" to withdraw from the AleutianS and Nome.
 "These bases," he said, would have to be reactivated immediate ly in case of war to make them

 Chinese Nationalists celebrated today the biggest morale boast they have had since the Reds swallowed China-their smashing of a communist invading force on Hainan Island off South China.
 Thousands of joyful National ists paraded through Hoihow, cap ital of Hainan, as firecrackers sputtered all over the city. Red prisoners were marched through the streets. The nationalists claim ed 5000 Reds were killed in Sat urday's fighting and more than 2,000 captured.
 "We have destroyed the com munist dream of conquering Hai- man," said Gen. Ii Yang-Ching, chief of state of Hainan.
 It was the Chinese communists second attempt in six days to land a force on the big island, separ- ated by 10 miles of water from Luichow peninsula. The National iStS said they wiped out 4,000 Red invaders on March 27.
 The Truman administration, spurred on by the Presidents or derS, undertook today to find a way to prevent a drastic dollar gap" crisis when Marshall Plan aid to countries abroad halts in 1852.
 The problem of finding some way in which foreign countries can obtain the necessary dollars or hard currency" to pay for American exports, rests wit h scholarly Gordon Gray.
 Gray is leaving his post as sec retary of the army to undertake the assignment as special assist ant to the President.
 U. s. Senators predicted today that Congress will act quickly to strengthen the weak links they said Gen. Dwight D.. Eisenhower has pointed out in American de- feseS.
 Eisenhower urged among other things that defense of Alaska be bolstered at once, that the air force be given at least a billion and half a year to keep up its fighting strength, and that "our anti-submarine facilities" be rein forced.

A mighty nice way to celebrate
Mothers Day, which as you know
is this coming Sunday, May IA. is
for the family to take over the
culinary responsibilities and give
NON a real day of rest.
The dinner menu suggested in
the Whats Cookin' column was
planned with just that idea in
mind. Here is a chance for dad
to show off his technique with
a steak. On Saturdays shopping
list be sure to include a package
Of the frozen French fried pota-
toes or a can of shoestring type.
In either case all you need do Is
heat them in the oven the last
few minutes the steak is broiling.
A package of frozen limas solves
that problem. The green salad
can be head lettuce, radishes and
thin slices Of cucumbers If you
don't feel up to cleaning an as
sortment of salad greens. Maybe
salad making is dads forte, too.
in which case he will certainly
insist on whipping up his own
salad dressing. If not. there are
a number Of excellent bottled
varieties on the market. For the
finishing touch toss in a generous
pinch of mixed salad herbs. It
will take the salad out of the
ordinary class.
You can serve piping hot rolls,

becoming so popular. Even

Even a lad still in knee
britches" learns fast that every
girl in the pigtail set is law unto
herself. 1t is a lesson he never
forgets!
Sometimes all this feminine in
dividuality is a bit confusing to
the mere male, but in his heart
he wouldn't have you changed one
whit. It's your individuality that
makes you fascinating.
The woman who plots to make
herself into a carbon copy OF
some other woman, no matter how
attractive. loses the most valuable
thing she has. She forfeits the
fresh essence of her own per-
sonality for the leftover aroma of
some one else's charm. Never be
tempted. Always make the most
of your own fine qualities.
Start by making a careful
analysis of your personality. De-
eide which traits of your character
and disposition are most appealing
to others. Then learn how to turn
them into personal marks of dis
tinction by the proper emphasis.
Next, look at the outer signs
that point up your individuality.
Ask yourself searchingly if every
thing you wear-cosmetics, hair
style and clothes-iS just right for
you and you alone.
For instance. do the lines of
your clothes emphasize your best
figure points? To get you of to
a good beginning, I'll give you the
individually correct answer. All
you need do is find your figure
among the following:
Short heavy: Your best lines
are vertical and diagonal because
these are slimming and tall-mak-
ing. Short-thin: Horizontal and
modified, vertical lines are for your
figure because the first will make
you look taller and the second,
fuller of figure.
Tall-heavy: Try wearing aSym-
metrical (off cepter) vertical and
diagonal lines to slim your figure
without making you appear taller.
Tall-thin: Horizontal lines are
your best bet because they will cut
your height and fill out your figure.
Well-proportioned: Any direc-
ton of line is becoming as long as
it's length is in proportion to your
height.
