Maureen O'Hara, the beautiful
red-topped movie star, Is cele-
brating 10 years of happy mar
riage. in spite of anything
Hollywood and a two-career fam
lily can do about it, but she isn't
Dragging.
I asked her: what are the
rules?" She replied, you can't
follow rules. You have to grope
your way. obey certain instincts
and lunches and use all the COM
mon sense you possess. It's q
catch-as-catch-can proposition.
| A woman must heed her natural
instincts while she is making up
her mind. If she does that, her
marriage has a chance"
Maureen. a strong minded lass
from old Ireland, made UP her
mind with definiteness and final
ity when she married Will Price,
the director. 10 years ago. She
has never swerved from her
course.

with me. home and family
come first. Career comes second,
If more wives in Hollywood could
make that decision, there wouldn't t
be SO many broken marriages out
here. I'm going to keep on with
my career and keep my home life
uppermost at all times, and hope
for the best. It's when you think
you have everything in hand that
you're rudely awakened in mar
riage. The fact we've rounded
out 10 years doesn't mean that
nothing ever will happen if we
get careless about our lives" "
Recently there were rumors of
marital discord between Maureen
and her husband, but Will
squelched them by flying to Homo
lulu to meet Maureen on her re-
turn from Australia.
When Maureen's current pic

the Irish actress co-stars with JEFF
Chandler, was being shot on loca-
ton in Lone Pine. Calf, more
than 200 miles from Hollywood
Maureen had it understood before
she left that her scenes would be
filmed first and finished within
three days SO that she could re-
turn home and be on hand when
her 7-year-old daughter Bron-
wyn was confirmed in church.
AN acress must consider the
other fellows viewpoint. in a two
career family in Hollywood. She
must force herself to understand
how a husband feels and what
he thinks when he returns home
from work in the evening and sees
his child or children in deserted
house, while his wife is cleaning
of her makeup at some studio
If this sort Of thing goes on in

New Stor of Tree
Won Her Role
From 80 Others
By Lawrence Perry
NEW YORK.

Marcia Van Dyke, who has reg
Iistered so strongly as Katie, the
female lead in the musical hit, "A
Tree Grows in Brooklyn" at the
Alvin Theater, was naturally shy
Itremulous-in fact, just plain
scared. on the night the show
began it's tryout tour at New
Haven.
It was the first time she had
ever been on a dramatic stage, q
girl whom the lightning struck
after so unsuccessful candidates
had been auditioned by a highly
critical jury.
A first section violinist and So
Iprano soloist in the San Francisco
Symphony Orchestra-she played
here in Carnegie Hall with this
Organization in 1947-Marcia was
asked to try out for the part of
Katie as result OF a tip supplied
George Abbott by Jack Green. her
supervisor in various television
appearances.
She Skunk Away.
Abbott, who had begun to weary
of the chore of listening to in
adequately equipped aspirants,
turned to his daughter Judith,
lcasting director, asking her to
tune in on the girls video show
and see what she thought.
What Judith Abbott thought
was revealed next day, when
Marcia was invited to d singing
test. Accordingly-and with my
heart in my throat"-she sang be-
fore George Abbott and his staff
Including Dorothy Fields, ,ibrettist
and the composer Arthur Schwartz

Marcia. "I fairly skunk out Of the
Itheater, thoroughly depressed
ASHAMED of myself-until the fol-

The plenary Economic and So

By CHARLES C. NORTH

Two Saturdays ago from the
time this is written at least five
persons called me at the office on
my telephone and began bar
rage of testimony on the good one
Father Roberts had done for
them. At first I was confused or
maybe flabbergasted. I am still
not sure. Why was l being called
in on all this, something knew
nothing about.
1t didn't take too long, how
ever, to check the reason why. A
little probing into the minds of at
least two of my callers and de-
tected that these calls were in pro-
test to something they thought
unkind a morning radio common
tator had said about Father Rob-
erts. l concluded each telephone
conversation with a promise to
look into the story. Frankly, 1

thousands whom 1 have talked
will attest to this. My success is
not built fooling people but in
convincing them that God works
in a mysterious way and all
things can be done by him."
Thirty minutes have elapsed
since our meeting and the people
are crowding in the waiting room
here in order to consult this most
unusual man living testi-
mony to his appeal and charm.
One more thing I'd like to know,

Just one more question,
begged, and as of now, our in
terview will be at an end. What
about this olive oil and how is it
related with faith and prayer.
Feeling through his brief case
he produced a certificate from a
DR.. Donald M. Harris, health
commissioner in Gary, Indiana,
and he said, eff you read this,
you will probably understand its
purpose more clearly than can
explain it,"
The certificate, properly sign
ed read: "Rev. William Roberts is
authorized to use olive oil as an
external substance as part of a
religious rite. This authorization
in no way is to be taken as an
approval of a method of spiritual

THANKS FIR. ROBERTS FOR
INTERVIEW

l thanked Father Roberts for
this interview. Like the certifi-
cate l read from the doctor in
Gary, this report of our inter-
view is not an Endorsement of the
beliefs and healing powers of this
interesting man. In fairness to
the man, I must say that many,
many people in my own COM
munity tell seemingly highly i'm
probable things he has done for
them. / am not in a position to
contradict them, and why should
!, they produce themselves as liv-
ing evidences.

me just how did you first be-
come aware of this amazing pow
er of healing by faith and pray
er, l enquired.
"Well," he meditated, "I'd like
to start from the beginning"
Please do, insisted.
TELLS BACKGROUND
He began: 81 was born in 1916
in little hamlet called Hopkins
Crossroads, five miles from Ze-
bulon and 81 miles from Raleigh,
N. c. At the age of four an influ-
enza epidemic killed my father
and my mother and all but five
of the IS relatives / had. My
grand parents took over t h e
chores of my upbringing. A few
months later my grandmother
died."
Even at this early age my
grandmother impressed me great
ly. She wanted to preach the Cos
pei but she was rejected because
she was a woman. On her death
bed she expressed her disap-
pointment at not being accepted
by her people to preach to them,
because she was a woman"
is HELPED BY PRAYER
At the age of Is 1 was sick in
bed and no one seemed to be able
to do anything for me, I prayed
very sincerely and my first ex-
perience in faith and prayer came
to pass. l was we'll again in few
! hours and I ran to my church
spreading the realization of what
had happened to me.
After this had happened and ]
told my story so straight forward
about my cure by prayer and
faith, the preachers in my neigh
borhood seem to think that l had
an impressive way to tell about
my experience and often they
would take me on revival trips
to other towns with them. / was

REPORTER ACCEPTS
INVITATION

REPORTER ACCEPTS
INVITATION
My big moment arrived when
I picked up circular under my
door the other morning, and in
addition to testimonials and other
explanations of his healing SER
vices, etc. was attracted and
took heed to the statement Faith
er Roberts invites and welcomes
all newspaper and all other in
tereSted parties to investigate and
obtain the true facts about heal
ing by faith and prayer" This is
it l decided and fortnight and
straightaway proceeded to the
Miami office of Father Roberts
at 423 NV 9th ST., with this invi-
tation in my hands.
MEETS FATHER ROBERTS
My first impression of Father
Roberts is that here is one man
that won't find any difficulty
with the ladies, he is definitely on
the handsome side, built like an
athlete, smiles easily and talks
convincingly.
He was cordial and expressed
delight at my visit. I made some
opening small talk and among
other things worked up to my
purpose of my visit, beginning
with the observation that he has
quite number of followers In
this area that are laying some
amazing claims to this business Of
healing by faith and prayer and
the use of olive oil. I added that
all my experiences at healing and
curing had come from medical
men or others trained along the
lines of that profession.
NO QUARREL WITH MEDICAL
MEN
Father Roberts countered by
saying 81 have no quarrel with
the medical men and exhibit only
the highest respect for that group.
We firmly believe in medicine
and doctors, but our greatest be-
lief is in God. Before any of my
followers accept my attempt at
healing by faith they must sign
an affadivit that says in part: l
acknowledge healing is by faith
and prayer through the power of
God only. According to the in
Structions of Rev. Roberts, I fur
ther understand that he neither
guarantees, promises, nor claims
any power of his own for any re-
suits obtained thereby, and if
healed or helped it is through the
power of God"
The affidavit further states, "It
is further understood and adviS-
ed by Rev. Roberts that healing
oils are none other than pure
olive oil without any medicinal
properties and contains no kind
of mixture and claims no healing
value except by the power of God
through faith and prayer, as re-
corded in James, chapter S, verses
1916. This oil is to be used as a
symbol of faith only"
sWEARs TO UNUSUAL
CURE
I mentioned to him that l also
noticed on this circular in my
hand that according to a sworn
statement appearing here, a Mr..
Walter Johnson of Coconut Grove
gives you credit for restoring &C
tivity and life in a crippled and
almost paralized hand. must
say, I added, that your method is
amazing. also have more names
and addresses of people who lay
fabulous claims to your strange
powers to heal and cure and
plan to talk with most of them
and find out how it feels ito be
cured by this seemingly painless
method.
am intrigued by the conf
dence so many people have in
you and l am anxious to know
more about your background. Tell
