MRS. J.F.--Eunice's friend
Ia O bad influence.
EUNTCE F.--6he's differ
emit want experience.
THE DETAILS
MRS. J. F.--My husband
and I are very worried about
our 2i-year-old daughter.
Eunice.
For the past year she has
been going around with q
girl about who there has
been unpleasant talk In the
community. This girl Is said
to have been involved In
some sort Of scandal In her
home community. She came
here last year to stay with
her aunt and uncle. Our
daughter met her at Q Sec
retarial school and they've
been fast friends ever since.
Since she has met this
girl. Eunice has gone out
with all kinds Of men who
are not Like those she used
to know through school or
our family friends or church.
I'm not saying anything
against them, but after all.
many Of them are not Of our
faith. She says she intends
to marry In our faith.
EUNICE F-My parents
are so narrow and small town
In their outlook. ! hope
I'll never become like that.
I don't consider myself ir-
religious or immoral Just be-
cause I want TO get to know
different kinds Of people.
This girl, Nora. Is different
from any Of the girls I've
ever known. I certainly don't
think she is immoral. but she
says she wants more out Of
life than TO just settle down
to an everyday routine with
a batch Of kids. She wants
to be an actress and she says
next year she Is going to New
York or Hollywood.
My mother Just can't wait,
for me to marry and settle
down and be like everyone
else here. ! want to marry.
but ! want q little expert
ence Of life FIRST. My mother
says this Is al because Of
the influence Of shat awful
GIRL" but that's not so.
THE COUNCILS VIEW
II Is easy for parents to
blame some undesired atti-
tude In their young on any
outside Enthusiastically a
companion.
Eunice 10 no child but It
seems that her parents re-
gard her as such and she is
childlike In many Of her at
titudes. She apparently feels
as much under her mothers
thumb as she did when she
was q little girl. She Is filled
with timid lodgings and day
dreams. but she does not as
sert herself by reaching out
for something real with
which to enlarge her life.
Nora, too. Is apparently
pretty much Of o dreamer.
1t is one thing for q l3-year-
old girl to talk Of being an
actress and quite q different
thing for q girl Of Il.
A girl Of II who talks Of
running on to New York or
Hollywood and just becom.
ing an actress Is q menace to
nobody so much as herself.
Eunice is probably the HARM
full influence by encouraging
her in these fantasies.
The J. F.'s ought to try
to get over some Of their
fears about what the big out
side world might do to harm
their little girl. but Eunice
should try to help the
process by doing some grow
ing UP.

Jamaica" the Broadway
musical hit of a year ago, was
offered last night as the Sec
ond entry in the Rosecroft
RacewaV's Music Circus" and
it is just the type of lively, en-
thusiastic fare that is best fit
ted for the summer season.
An audience of several hun
dred, surprisingly large in view
Of the sultry, oppressive heat,
assembled in the gay, gaudily-
colored tent to see a per-
Torrance which vastly out
paced last weeks initial pres
entation of Bert Lahr and "Du
Barry Was A Lady"
This is not to say that last
nights production was as pol
ished as tonight's should be,
and certainly not as profess
sional as it will be two weeks
from now. Again, as with "Du
Barry" the newly-assembled
cast of Jamaica" is perform
ing here before an audience for
the first time as a unit. Rose
croft thus has been douhly

with good reason was uniform
ly we'll received.
The burden Of Jamaica"
hangs heavily on music and
on its star. a vivacious little
number named Abbey Lincoln.
Primarily a recording and
night club performer, Miss
Lincoln was taking her first
swing at the legitimate theater
and she has no reason to feel
badly. She is no Lena Horne,
who held Jamaica" together
on Broadway, but Miss Lin
coin expressed enough fire and
initiative to give the role a
fair of her own.
And a demanding role it is.
Miss Lincoln fits of stage for
what must have been a dozen
costume changes, a la Auntie
Name, and nearly all the time
she's not changing she's on
stage. Getting a fair share of
the Is sprightly musical num-
bers Jamaica" has to offer,
Miss Lincoln was at her best,
we thought, on the ballads. On
the livelier, faster tunes she
didn't make it quite as clearly
to our corner of the tent. Along
with other members of the
troupe, Miss Lincoln should
also remember constantly that
this is theater in the round,
and play equally to all sides
Of the house.
Never has the term musical"
been more aptly applied than

in Jamaica" for there is vir-
tually nothing in the way OF a
story to be bothered with,
Briefly, it concerns Savannah
miss Lincoln), a Jamaica
beauty who is torn between the
simple life on her tiny island
and some ill-deflned dreams
about the delights Of New York,
The plot thickens when a no
goodnik from Manhattan, Joe
Nashua, moves in with his CITY,
slicker ways to set up a pearl
diving shop. He succeeds, at
least briefly, In seducing the
honest island fishermen away
from their mackerel- fleet and
almost does as we'll with
Savannah. 1t couldn't happen,
though, and Savannah sure
enough is back where she be-
longs by curtain time.
AS Koli, the fishing feet cap
tain, Hugh Bryant is a pleas
ing hero and FRANCHISE Nesbitte
gets by as the unadmirable
Joe Nashua. Closely crowding
Miss Lincoln for honors, how
ever, is Bertice Reading as
Ginger, the loose-virtued hussy
who can't quite reconcile the
idea of giving up everything
for marriage. Teen-ager Alan
Weeks, as Savannah's kid
brother, also is a stand-out in
the virtually all-Negro cast.

heights in his score Of ia

pleasing, breezy or nostalgia as
the occasion demands. Com
mendably, while the island
beat is present, Mr.. Arlen ex-
ercised restraint in the amount
Of calypso he employed.
Nothing as cgmmendable,
however, can be said for Rose

all night ignoring the pleas OF

Adenuuer Halls
Presidents Plan
To Visit Bonn

BONN, Germany, Aug. 10
(AP). - Chancellor Adenauer
said today he is very pleased
President Eisenhower is COM
ing to see him in Bonn later
this month.
Before departing by plane
for Milan for a months vaca-
ton, he told newsmen:
II am very pleased that
President Eisenhower is COM
ing to Bonn on August 81. 1t
is a very good thing that he
is making a tour of the differ
ent European capitals.
I'm the next IA days I will
think over what I am going to
say to the President"
The 83-year-old Chancellor
said he would interrupt his
vacation to return to Bonn for
the Presidents visit.
The West German press had
a chorus of praise for the
Presidents acceptance of DR..
Adenauer's invitation to come
to Bonn for one day before
going on to London and Paris
for consultations with British
Prime Minister Macmillan ano
French President de Gaulle.

ing the Russians at a distance
appears to give way to a more
flexible era Of negotiation.
In contrast, Mr.. Eisenhower's
visit TO Britain at the end Of
this month is expected to be
uncomplicated.
There have been isolated
complaints that the Big -Four
is becoming the Big Two and
that Mr.. Khrushchev has
achieved his long standing aim
Of a face-to-face meeting with
Mr.. Eisenhower without giving
anything away.
But the general tone of press
comment from right to left has
been warm and optimistic.
Prime Minister Macmillan who
himself visited Moscow in
February has officially well
coined the exchange. The
Labor Party'S foreign affairs
spokesman, Aneurin Bevan,
wrote in a Sunday newspaper
that the personal exchanges
between the two should create
a welcome oasis in the other
wise arid desert of existing
international relations"

Hoover, at s., Sees
Hope for World Peace

NEW YORK, Aug. 10 (AP).-
Herbert Hoover, IS today, says
Nikita Khrushchev could bring
with him to the United States
the greatest gift mankind has
received in 1000 years-peace.
But this is unlikely to be the
result of this visit" the former
President added.
He could interpret his oft
repeated statement as to peace
full co-existence," Mr.. Hoover
said yesterday, "as eliminating
all international demands, all
warnings. all threats, and all
conspiracies against free
people"
Remote Possibility"
Such a move, said Mr..
Hoover, could win the Soviet
Premier immortality among
the leaders OF all men,"
But, he added, the possibility
that Mr.. Khrushchev would
make such a move is remote be-
cause "the tactics of the Com
munists may change, but their
determination to dominate the
world continues"
Mr.. Hoover appeared on
'Meet the Press" over NBC-TV.
The forthcoming visit of the
Soviet leader has hopeful posi-
bilities, said Mr.. Hoover. 1t
could lead to a decrease in
tension that might tide us
over for a period in which there
may be hopes of greater steps
In peace" he said.
Meanwhile, Mr.. Hoover said,
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1959-08-10

ana the American people
might as well know" that Mr..
Dulles foreign policy was
buried with him.
Allowing Mr.. Khrushchev
and other Russians to visit the
United States poses no threat
to the freedom of the American
people, Senate Democratic
Leader Johnson said.
Let the Russians say what
they wish. Let our people hear
1t to the bitter end. l have
faith in them. I do not be-
lieve that there will be any
Communist converts" Senator
johnson said.
On his weekly broadcast re-
corded for Texas radio stations.
he said the proposed visit is
"the type of exchange which
could do much for the whole
world"
Other Viewpoints
A week after the announce
ment of the exchange of visits
between Mr.. Khrushchev and
President, these other view
points were expressed:
Senator Butler, Republican
Of Observation-Disclosures pain
full it might be, we must re-
member that Premier Khrush-
chew will only be friends with
Communist comrades. and such
friendship at such a price is
unacceptable to America"
Senator Ellender, Democrat
Of Louisiana-the exchange of
visits is desirable to ease ten
sions and Mr.. Eisenhower's ac-
ton sis a bold move in the
right direction" To ignore
'Mr. Khrushchev and his
henchmen" would not make
them any less dangerous.
Senator Mansfield, Democrat
of Montana-He is frankly a
little skeptical of the benefits
of Mr.. Khrushchev's visit but
1t is up to Americans to back
Mr.. Eisenhower to the limit
now that the decision has been
made.
Senator Kefauver, Democrat
Of TenneSSee-The visit will af-
ford a good chance to show Mr..
Khrushchev our material
strength and spiritual STAN
ina" Senator Kefauver
doubts that the Soviet leader
will pull the wool over any
body's eyes" in this country.
Senator Mundt, Republican
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1959-08-10

and that some OF it won't be so
pleasant to hear.
These informants said Gen.
de Gaulle will not confine HIM
self to talk about Mr.. Eisen-
hower's exchange Of visits with
Nikita Khrushchev. They said
he will use the opportunity to
argue his demands for a bigger
French voice in NATO, an is
sue sharply focused by Frances
refusal to let American nuclear
warheads be stored on her soil
Mr.. Adenauer is considered
to be basically unhappy about
the Eisenhower Khrushchev
exchange. This belief has per-
sisted although West German
Foreign Minister Heinrich Won
Brentano stated Friday his gov
eminent welcomes and regards
1t as useful.
Some British newspapers re-
ported both Mr.. Adenauer and
Mr.. Won Brentano are under
fire within their own Christian
Democratic party for failing to
prevent the exchange.
They say Mr.. Adenauer is
disturbed as the late John
Foster Dulles policy of keep
