Vivian Got q New Character
And an Actors Dream Role
By Bob Thomas

couple of pictures, because the
shooting of the Lucy" series is
recessed until after the Arnaz
baby arrives. One of the roles
she was up for was a witchy
character such as she had al
ways played. But the casting
man said: II don't know whether
she can do the part; she's too
sweet" He obviously's Lucy"
fan.
Vivian doesn't mind the
change in her professional char
acter a bit. Nor does she object
to the 39-Week grind of turning
out the TV films.
IT'S an actors dream" she
enthused. You do the same
character, but you don't have
the boredom of reading the
same lines week after week, as
on the stage. We also have
what the movies lack-an audi
ence to stimulate YOU"
AIbuquerque's Pride
Vivian was born in Cherry
vale. Kans., but later moved to
Albuquerque, which she consid-
ers her home town. She and her
husband, Philip Ober, have
ranch at Cubero, N. Mex, where
they relax between acting jobs.
The citizens of Albuquerque
were responsible for Vivian's
acting career. She made a local
hit in THE Trial of Mary Du-
gan" and the town raised money
to send her to New York. She
was to study under Eva La Gal
lienne, but the latter turned her
down.
"I couldn't go back home, so
I stayed and stuck it out" she
recalled. She managed to land
in hits like Music in the Air."

During the present vacation.
Vivian is realizing the power of
the TV. when I do my shop
ping, people are always coming
up and talking to me-" she said.
"They start talking, just as
though we had met. They even
put their hands on my arm, as
an old friend would"
She said she was delighted at
being recognized and also by the
mail she receives. 1--WE heard
from dozens of people hadn't
seen since I was in school," she
said. II also heard from former
GIs I had met when I was over
seas with over 81 My hus-
band and I toured North Africa
and Italy with it; we were the
first play to go overseas.
1--WE have the same relation
ships we have on the show"
Vivian remarked. Just last
Monday I had Lucille over for
leg of lamb. We watched the
TV show and howled our heads
off. We were laughing so hard
at ourselves that we finally got
ashamed"

A summer ago, Vivian Vance
was appearing in Voice of the
Turtle" at the La Jolla (CalifD
Playhouse. Little did she realize
that she was trying out for what
might be a life's job.
In the audience one night
were Lucille Ball and Desi
Arnaz. They were looking for
players to appear in a TV show
they were planning, Il Love
Lucy" They liked her job as
the other woman in the three
character play and chose her
to play Lucy's neighbor Ethel.
The sequel to the story is
TV history. Il Love Lucy"
quickly climbed to the top of
the audience ratings and stayed
there. A recent survey estimated
the show had an unbelievable
AZ million viewers. All this con-
tinues to amaze Vivian Vance.
IF I had realized that night
at La Jolla that I would be

Turkey Crop
Up Is Percent
In Maryland

There is some indication of a
favorable turkey price in the COM
ing months despite record supplies
according to statement made by
DR.. Harold D. Smith of the De-
partment of Agricultural Econom-
les and Marketing, University of
Maryland. Producers in Maryland
report that they have been selling
their birds for a cent or two less
per pound this fall than last. How
ever, due to the record early
marketing this year turkey prices
may approach 1851 levels in No
vember and December.
DIR. Smith reported that turkey
people generally are concerned this
year over the record large crop of
turkeys being raised. Turkey pro-
duction for the nation is estimated
to be Is percent greater and pro-
duction in Maryland Is percent
greater than last year. Even so,
according to report issued by the
US. Department of Agriculture
most regions will have no more
turkeys than last year available
for slaughter during November
and December. The basis for this
statement is that rs percent of the
turkeys raised are the year-round
Beltsville Small whites, many of
which have already been sold. 1t
has been estimated that 43 percent
of the nations turkey crop will
have been marketed during October
or earlier, 80 percent will be sold
in November and % percent in
December. DIR. Smith pointed out
that this figure of 43 percent early
marketings is considerably diff
ferent than it was 10 years ago

County Police
Press Action
On Petition

The recent pay raise granted the
Arlington County Police has STIR
red the Montgomery County Police
Association to again seek favor
able action on their request for a
five day week.
At a meeting of the Association
held in Silver Spring last Tuesday,
it was decided by unanimous vote
that the Association president ap-
point a committee to meet with
County Manager Irving G. McNayr
to determine the status of their
petition for a five day week.
The original petition was pre-
sented to the Council last June.
Despite favorable reception by sew
eral of the councilmen, after a
short hearing the matter was re-
ferred to the County Manager and
the Personnel Board for appropri-
ate action.
Ill-advisedly, the petition was
presented during the hectic days of
the fiscal budget hearings and thus
assumed minor Importance in the
face of larger and more important
problems.
The Police Association feels,
however, that the matter is of
great Importance, especially at this
time. The department, during the
past year, has lost great number
of good men who have resigned to
take better paying jobs. A great
many more of the present members
are contemplating resigning and
are staying on only 10 see if per-
haps the five day week or a pay
raise is presently forthcoming.
According to a spokesman fol
the Association, the morale of the
men is surprisingly high. This is
no doubt due to the fact that most
of the men are career policemen
But, added the spokesman, "thert
is a limit to how much financial
hardship the boys can suffer fol
their careers"
State Senator Dewitt Hyde, II
a letter to the Council, reminded
them hat they had campaigned dur
ing the last election with the prom
Use they would give the police ;
five day week. He urged them I,
live up to that specific plank il
their platform. Secretary of State
John Reeves also wrote the Coun
Gil and urged the granting of
! five day week.

ter entertained the Burtonsville
Homemakar's Club. 1t was a per-
feet day and practically the entire
membership attended he meeting.
Several new members had been
added that the Home Demonstra-
tion Agent had not met due to the
fact that it had been six months
since she attended this club. The
vice president, Mrs. j. Lodge Hill,
presided.
The club was very pleased to
know that they had a substantial
balance in their club treasury af-
ter a very busy and active year.
They are planning to use some of
the prize money that they won in
the Homemaker's Pageant for
their Christmas opportunity.
They are meeting at the home
of Mrs. A. d. Oursler to make
apple butter this week and can
pears for the Montgomery County
General Hospital Donation Day.
This has been a custom of long
standing. Last year they sent
about 100 quarts. Even though
apples are scarce and pears are
not quite as good as last year,
they hope to have a creditable
showing.
The club was very much inter
.ested in the discussion of "Foun-
dation Paintings" Many of them
have had great deal of exper-
fence in the growing of nice
shrubbery and gave valuable sug-
gestions. Mrs. Peter and her
daughter-in-law served delicious
refreshments.
Croydon Park Homemaker's
Club met that evening with the
Home Demonstration Agen t
meeting this club in the Extension
Offlce at pm.
Mrs. William R. Stark, presi-
dent, introduced Mrs. Walter
Hunter as the new All local lead
er for the All club that Mrs. Ir-
ma Bell has just organized. The
club was sorry to hear that Mrs.
Garrett Cooley was in the hospital.
This club had called Miss Clau-
die B. Galiher, Executive Secre-
tary of the Montgomery County
tuberculosis Association, an d
asked for a Christmas Opportu-
nifty in one of the T.B. Hospitals.
They voted to make twenty-five
novelties for the Henryton Hospit-
al, in Baltimore.
An election was held and Mrs.
Everett. Trumbo was elected vice
president and Mrs. John. Phillips
was elected secretary. This club
is very interested in the Founda-
ton Planting lesson and they have
been doing things along this line
in their neighborhood for some
years.

when only 10 percent of the birds
were sold prior to November.
Turkey consumption has been on
the increase, according to DR..
Smith, as result of turkey pro-
motional programs at time when
family incomes are high due to
relatively favorable business condi-
tons. 1t is estimated that the con-
sumption of turkey in 1852 will
average Sc pounds per person -
half a pound more than last year
and about 2 pounds more than in
1943. According to representative
from the Poultry and Egg Nation
al Board turkey promotion this
year will be geared to increasing
sales of both large and small tur-
keys. 1t is generally felt, however,
that there will not be enough small
turkeys to meet the market demand
during the holiday season.
DR.. Smith advised that even with
a few hopeful signs of turkey
price rise, producers should not
be too optimistic over market con-
ditions. Even though there has
been an increase in early market
ings and an expected increase in
consumption there is a record large
turkey crop this year. Also, other
meats are in plentiful supply and
are showing a tendency to be lower
priced this year. In the final anal
ysis the turkey enterprise will pro-
badly be less profitable than in
previous years due to less favor
able turkey-feed ration, DIR. Smith
said.

AMONG THE H0MEMAKERS

a new shipment that sold like hot
cakes! Mrs. F. A. Johnson gave
a most interesting report on the
"Bob White" or quail, which is
the bird of the month that they
are studying. She said that when
she first moved into the neighbor-
hood she could sit on her porch
and watch they fly around but
with the tremendous amount of
building which has been done, they
have left that area.
Mrs. Charles Grover, one of the
chairmen in the Silver Spring
Garden Club, told of the wonder
full exhibit on Christmas Decora-
tions that will be in the Cor
coran Art Gallery and open to the
public from the 9Th of December
on for about two weeks. Anyone
who wishes to send an entry can
get in touch with Mrs. Grover and
she will mail them an entry blank
which will enable them to bring
some type of Christmas decoration
to be put in the contest. She
said if possible, our Homemakers
should try to visit the exhibit on
December 5, 6, 7 or 8 because
some of the decorations will be re
moved.
Mrs. Grover will give demon
stration on Christmas decoration
on December 10 at the home of
Misses Gertrude and Lou Lombard.
This club was interested in what
it could do for someone for
Christmas and one of the members
knew of a deserving family, which
the club is going to try to do some
interesting things for, as Christ
mas opportunity. 1t is quite won
derful to see the enthusiasm and
desire on the part of all of our
Homemaker's Clubs to plan for
their Christmas Opportunities.
The evening of the 14th, Mrs.
Donald McQuinery entertained the
North Kensington Homemaker's
Club, with Mrs. Harold Botkin,
president, presiding. Again there
was evidence of interest in a
Christmas Opportunity. One of
the members knew of an elderly
widow who was trying to sell
Christmas cards in order that she
might make a little money. The
club asked if she could contact the
woman at once and bring over the
samples of cards, which this young
matron did. The club members
bought generously. They felt that
it was much better to cooperate
