AL Will Not
Unload Seattle
In Tacoma

SEATTLE, (P-A spokesman
said Friday that American Fed
Grafton of Labor lcngshoremen in
Tacoma will not unload cargo di-
verted to that port from Seattle
by the waterfront tie-up.
Make Weisbarth, spokesman
for the Maritime Trades Depart
ment here, said lines already OPP
Grating from Tacoma before the
strike would not be affected by
the ban. ~
These include Ocean Van Line,
Alaska Freight Lines and Ameri-
can Mail Line.
Weisbarth said about dozen
ships have been refused clearance
to unload at Tacoma since AFI
pickets tied up Seattle's port on
Nov. II. He said ships which
carry considerable Seattle cargo
and which do not normally op-
crate from Tacoma are affected
by the ban. Such vessels will not
be allowed to discharge cargoes
in the United States nearer than
Columbia River ports, he said.
The dispute over whether an
AFL or an Independent union has
jurisdiction over dock foremen
continued unsettled with only
military cargo and relief ship
ments for Alaska being loaded in
the big port.

Changes 26-Year
Man Into Woman

COPENHAGEN, Denmark, Up
Christine Jorgensen, 26, an at
tractive blond, awaited happily
Monday her final release from a
Danish hospital where she under
went hormone treatments and
surgery changing her from a man
into woman.
She will return home soon to
the Bronx section of New York
City, where she grew up as
George Jorgensen, Jr., son Of a
carpenter.
The change took about two
years. During that time, between
trips to the hospital, Christine
was able to study color photo
graphy. She hopes to pursue that
profession in the United States.
I'm happy to have become a
woman and I think many people
who are unhappy as I was before,
should follow my example," she
told reporter at Rigs Hospitalet,
the Danish state hospital here.
Her doctors refused to discuss
the case.
DR.. Christian Hamburger, Dan
ish hormone expert who directed
the countless injections his pa
tient received along with surgical
operation by several leading Dan
ish surgeons, refused to describe
Miss Jorgensen's treatment in de-
tail.
The boy-to-girl transformation
was revealed in New York last
night in a copyrighted article by
the New York Daily News, which
said Christine in letter to her
father said the process had taken
two years.
The news gave these details:
After serving two years in the
Army at Fort Dix, NJ, George
Jr., received an honorable dis
charge and enrolled in New York
Medical Institute to study the
workings of sex glands and hor-
mones.
During trip to California, the
youth met doctor who told him
of sex conversion work being done
in Denmark and three years ago
he went there, ostensibly to study
color photography, and put him
self in the hands Of DR.. Hem
burger.
The News said the elder Jor-
gensen learned Of the change in
his child in a letter from her in
which she wrote: Mature made
the mistake which l have had
corrected and now l am your
daughter" She enclosed pictures
of herself in girls clothes -
pretty, very feminine looking
blonde.

Training Your Child

lit will take many repeated ex-
IperienceS. Be sure that the first
time ends in success. If you fail,
wait for three days or so, then
begin again but at a different
hour, in a different place. Time,
place, setting, mental attitudes,
all have influence on conduct and
on memory. The memory of one
experience feeds the next, so be
careful.
Young mothers are likely to
say. my goodness. He ought to
know by this time, I've told him
and told him." Telling him is no
good. Words are empty sounds
until experience puts meanings
into them. Stand by, help, en-
courage and reward the strug-
Cling child and keep repeating the
teaching until he has it.
Teach but one thing at a time.
If you are training him for toilet
habits, do not stress eating man
ners. Be casual about other
things until this one is set. One
well-set habit makes the next
easier to set. One thing at a time,
land thoroughly.

Perhaps I could take that for
granted. The real difficulty is
that I have son, now years old,
and mother doesn't want him to
know his grandfather. When
father sent gifts, mother did her
best to make ME return them.
One of the gifts was a toy trumpet
and she deliberately, I think, broke
it one day. She insists that her
former husband must never be

Il can't seem to get my child to
do anything that I want him to
do. He's a good child but some
how we don't hit it off at all
What's the matter with me?"
Nothing, ! am sure, but mex
perience. and that is something
that life soon cures. Children do
not come into the world with dis
ciplined natures and nice habits.
These have to be taught by the
slow. hard way of daily practice,
Teaching a child anything is a
job and time must be allowed for
it. Just any time at all will not
do. Waiting for a convenient
time will not serve. Suppose you
want to teach the baby to go to
the toilet every morning and to
remain there until he attends to
duty. Make a job of it. Get
the child ready and be careful not
to frighten or weary him before
hand. Put him in his place and
stay by. Encourage him but
say little. just stay by waiting
Now that is a task. There is
work waiting to be done. Let il
go: this time has been set aside
for this one job. Stay by 1t ano
see that it is attended to no mat
ter what. Once, twice, and the
habit is well on it's way to being
set. Be sure to attend to it at the
same time, in the same way
every day and reward the chile
with praise when he does well
Don't skip a time: don't change
the hour or the place once it has
been set.
This same routine is indicated
in teaching any habit to q child
He will not learn at one lesson

may, but Spike is never going to
take to the wilderness routes OF
show business and, like Ambrose
Bierce. never be heard from again
His latest report on his activities
has just arrived, to wit:
After having just finished
playing go cities in 60 nights with
our Musical Depreciation Revue,
we were so tired that even our
stage show was starting to look
like it was on kinescope.
MY immediate plans following
this strenuous tour were to take
Helen, Spike junior, aged three,
and our new daughter, Leslie Ann,
|aged 10 months, and run, or
rather fly, to Honolulu for three
weeks. However, I had no sooner
|entered our home in Beverly Hills
than I had phone call from NBC
Saying they would like to have me
do another All Star Revue May 81
instead of our previously planned
June 21 date. ;.
MY first concern was trying to
get guest star on such short no.
|tice. I attempted to persuade
Jose Iturbi to make his television
debut on our last program. How
ever. he said over the phone that
he was appearing with another
novelty orchestra last January IL
the New York Philharmonic at
Carnegie Hall-but to be sure and
call him the next time we were on.
This I did. But I was informed he
was out of the country. Now I'm
wondering whether he found out
before I did that we were going to
be on All Star May 81!
Thought you might be inter-
ested in knowing that during our
two weeks in Canada last month
we were approached to do two
15-minute radio programs a week
for the Royal Canadian Air Force
Recruiting Division. These shows
will be heard over Is Canadian
radio stations beginning in July.
Maybe they figure that if our
music won't get the boys off the
ground, nothing will.
"One Of the high spots in our
television program will be our
imitation of Johnny Ray. This
is done by Sir Frederick Gas and
he really cries up a storm. We
have provided all the cameramen
with water wings. j.. We are also
doing an arrangement for the
first time of the Piano Concerto
This was composed by Tschaikow-
sky and decomposed by our ar
rangement. Just in case we haven't
got all the bugs out of it by May
81, we're going to play one chorus
with nine tuned Fit guns.
Our pianist who is going to be
featured in this arrangement is a
very studious musician. When we
had a train wreck on our last
tour. I was sitting by him and the
minute our locomotive hit a COW
/ jumped up and said What was
that! He calmly replied, e Flat.

The contrast to our musical
snake pit will be provided by my
wife, Helen Grayco. She will pre-
sent her hit Mercury recording
To Be Loved by You
Another segment Of the show
will be a medley Of our numbers
that have sold over a hundred
records each. (For a while we
didn't think they were going to
go at all.) These include Chinese
Mule Train My Daddy Is a Cen
Ieral,' You Always Hurt the One
You Love- and our current Victor
recording, Deep Purple
Immediately following our next
television show we must begin re-
hearsals for our new Musical
Depreciation Revue of 1853 (day-
light saving time louses every
thing up) which opens at the CAL
Neva Lodge at Lake Tahoe July
%, followed by two weeks at the
Flamingo Hotel, Las Vegas. be-
ginning August z.
Thanks again for everything
and I do hope you enjoy our next

going to enjoy my vacation"
