LA. Politicians
Protest Program
Was Too Risque

LOS ANGELES, u Was the
entertainment for the King and
Queen of Greece at a civic ban
quet here Saturday too risque for
royalty?
The mayor, some city council
men and several society leaders
thought so, and the corridors of
City Hall still echoed their COM
plants Tuesday.
Mayor Norris said he was
shocked, particularly by some of
the songs of sexy Eartha Kit.
Other politician-critics found fault
with some of the patter of Actor
Dick Powell, master of ceremonies
at the black-tie, $15-a-plate blow
out.
81 was extremely disappointed"
said the mayor. II personally
found some of the lyrics offensive.
I feel the Hollywood Coordinating
Committee owes an apology to the
King and Queen"
The Coordinating Committee
arranged the entertainment, in
which frankie Lame and Comedi-
an Danny Thomas also took part.
Miss Kilt sang such ditties as 81
Want to Be Evil' and Santa
Baby"
Poulson, celebrating his opinion
later, added that generally speak
ing, it was far from the high-type
program that the occasion de-
manded."
Said Miss Kit: II can't under
stand it. I'm just an innocent little
girl. I didn't think it was possible
to shock politicians"
And said Powell: "What did
they expect, church hymns? 1t
was only a little bit sophisticated"
miss kits songs started it off
on a low level" said Councilman
Gordon Hahn. Il always liked
frankie Lame but I don't think
he should have sung 'JezebeT."
Councilman Don Allen found
fault with Miss Kilt and also with
the Andrews Sisters. Of the latter
he said: "They sang a couple of
nice songs and then went into
their saloon routine"
Replied Patti Andrews: eve
sang The Pennsylvania Polka Is
that risque? We sang Apple Bios
som Time Is that risque? We
sang 'Feudin' and a-Fightin'.' Is
that risque? And last we sang
Garments Boogie.' Is that risque?"

MUNSAN, Korea, R-The first
British officer liberated today

the Reds tried to create riffs be-
tween British and Americans in

would insinuate to the Americans
they were better than the British, :"
said 1t. Anthony Perrins of the

less to say, one didn't" he added.

resisted the Chinese guards thru
out their captivity.
Allied captives refused to use

year or more. Object was to deter
mine why some couples got along
fine with their in-laws, and why
Others didn't. The survey, which
was conducted by the confidential

the following factors are most sig

adjustment.
!. Parents approval Of the couples

was found that a good relationship
is difficult to achieve.
z. Meeting the sVife's Tor hnSbdnd'S)
family before marriage. The study
showed this to be very important.
Couples who met their in-laws be-
fore marrying got along with them

And those who got along best met
them before they even became en-
gagged.

with nothing to do - no purposeful
activity with which to occupy her
self - nothing to fill the void left by
the children. Naturally she strug-
giles to maintain the old mother
offspring relationship. Also, years
of planning for her children, guiding
and protecting them, have built up
a mental habit pattern that she
finds extremely difficult to break.
She can't bring herself to let go COM
pletely of the reins of supervision.
This would be far easier if she had
outside-the-home interests into
which she could channel her energies.
Q: Should you trOEnen prepare

you ICiH become TnOtherS-in-

A: Yes. The wise woman will cul-
tivate absorbing outside interests to
occupy her when her children marry.
Otherwise she is likely to find the
transition from mother to mother
in-law extremely difficult. Also she
will do her best to keep the following
rules:
Cd Maintain a hands-off policy,
and let the couple lead their own
lives, (2) try to restrain herself from
giving unasked-for advice, (3) under
no circumstances give out with the
