Rockville voters go to the polls
tomorrow in what would be a
colorless city election except for
the vociferous presence of a
scrappy independent candidate.
Conceding she's almost sure to
be defeated, Mrs. Lila Thomson
editor of the Rockville Shopper
entered the race for one Of the
four City Council seats on the
grounds the Citizens for Good
Government should not sweep
the election by default.
Mayor Dickran Y. Hovsepian
is unopposed for reelection.
Running with him on the egg
slate are Alexander j. Greene,
John E. Oxley and Wendell r.
Turner, incumbentS, and Frank
A. Ecker.
Mrs. Thomson's original in
tention to provide a symbol of
opposition to the egg slate has
broadened into a full-scale at
tack on what she calls closed,
guarded, guaranteed govern
ment."
The CGG, a political organiza-
ton which grew out of citizens
associations and swept the nom
partisan elections two years ago,
has ignored most of her criti-
ciSm.
Mayor Hovsepian said his ad-
ministration inaugurated the
biggest public improvement pro-
gram in the city's history,
lowered the tax rate and will
soon submit SIS million water
system bond issue to the voters.
The mayor contests Mrs
Thomson'S view that a refer
endum should be held TO de-
termine if the city wouldn't be
better off If it scrapped the

Yet in spite of the moronic
essence of its creatures. Baby
Doll is a film that has whipped
up a fury of controversy for q
reason that is not difficult To
understand.
This is to be found in the
fact that the film has the force
of all the remorseless eloquence
at the command Of a director OF
Ella Kazan's stature.
And. beyond Kazan's skills, the
venemous candor Of a cast COM
posed of such gifted performers
as Eli Wallach, Carroll Baker
and Karl Maiden. 1t is the ag-
gregate of artistic talent spent
upon it that makes Baby DOLL
worthy Of the fury it has
aroused. In other hands, it might
easily have been no more than
q grim joke in grotesquely bad
taste instead of the most
screamed of picture of its year.

These latter grow out of re-

are sub-normal in even Williams

group is Baby Doll, a ripe, at
tractive blond who lies sucking
her thumb in a baby's crib while
keeping her husband at bay. The
husband, a drooling. dropping

The major problem confront
ing Kazan and his Baby Doll
cast is that in both its creatures
and their situation it is con-
stantly and perilously close to
caricature. These are literally the
people of comic strips and So
phisticated cartoons but they are
not so here.
They may be the dregs of a
social system but they are also,
as such. dramatic distortions of
the normal. What Baby DOLL
amounts to is an X-ray Of their

merciless in both its meaning
and its frankness.

As TCU WoIIops Texas

FORT WORTH, Nov. II R1.
Jim Swink ran wild to score
four touchdowns today as Texas
Christian walloped Texas, 46-O.
He shattered the Southern Con-
ference rushing record in doing
it.
1t was a brilliant form rever-
sal for Swink, who until today
had shown little of his old SPAR
kle this season. In seven previous
games, he had scored only two
touchdowns. He, scored 1875
points last year to leap into ALI
America fame.
Swink scored on a lightning
like run of 70 yards the first
time he got the ball: He scored
again from the 6-inch line, and
twice on passes from Charles
Curtis for 80 and Is yards.

148-pound Thompson, replacing
injured George Volkert. scored
a touchdown apiece as Tech
captured its fifth Southeastern
Conference victory and its sew
enth in eight games.
A crowd of 1888 saw Vann
cody engineer a 30-yard scoring
drive in the waning seconds of
the first quarter against fired
up Alabama defense. The score
came on an eight-yard pass
from Stan Flowers to Johnny
Menger. Thompson. a Bessemer,
Ala. product, who saves his best
games for Alabama, got the
second on a 48-yard scamper
that was the weirdest play seen
here this year.
Halfback Paul Rotenberry fum-
bled a handoff from Vann. picked
1t up and gave it to Thompson,
who followed superb blocking for
the score with one second left in
the third quarter.
Vann. turning the quarterback
