His Hand Caught,

The accident happened yes

Mr.. Stowell, As, said some

remembered that I had put a
knife in my jacket pocket a

for help a couple of times but
I didn't think anyone heard me.
My son (Norlyn, 49, came out
on another tractor.
Il told him I had my glove
caught and wanted him to cut
it of. I didn't think he'd cut
it if he knew my fingers were
in there. He got a couple Of
cords of my fingers cut, but

to suit me, so I took the knife
and cut off the rest of my
fingers and the thumb"

THE DANCE

perform.
Contrast to these primitive
dances is provided by the Phil

influences on the island culture.
These are colorfully costumed

lives on those 1000 islands.
There isn't room here to sin
gle out any individual heroes
and heroines of this dance pro-
gram-which undoubtedly is all
right, since Bayanihan means
group work." There is room,
however. to salute Lucrecia

Late Premier's Beliefs
Stir Debate in France

PARIS, Nov. IA (AP).-A
Cardinal and two members of
the French Academy are debat-
ing whether Premier Eduard
Herriot died as he had lived-a
free thinker.
Shortly before he died in
1857, Mr.. Herriot received the
last sacraments of the Roman
Catholic Church. He was given
a church burial despite a life as
a nagnostic, exciting lively dis
cussion at the time.
The debate was reopened two
days ago by Jean Rostand, a
biologist. as he took the seat in
the sedate French Academy left
vacant by Mr.. Herriot's death.
and by Jules Romans, a novel;
list.
Eulogizing Mr.. Herriot, Mr..
Rostand said that despite ru-
mors concerning his last mo-
ments, the former Premier
"died with his secret" This
brought q statement from
Pierre Cardinal Gerlier, an old
friend of Mr.. Herriot with
whom he had many religious
discussions.
Said the Cardinal:
IT affirm before God-and
qualified witnesses can support
me-that at the time of the
talks I had with him on re-
ligion, Premier Herriot was
perfectly lucid, that he replied
to my questions in a firm voice
and that twice he ex-
pressed his desire for religious
funeral services"

Dalai Lama to Show
Victims of Atrocities

THE trouble is he hasn't got

member.
Another member was asked
whether the committee would
be able to get legal evidence Of
atrocities, including genocide.
He replied: when you stress
the word legal No."
He pointed out the investi-
cation is one-sided because the
Red Chinese have refused re-
quests to submit evidence or
allow the committee to go to
Lhasa, Tibet's capital.
The committee has collected
722 statements from refugees.
Their charges break down into
AZ different types Of crimes.
The Dalai Lama said he has
had no contact with several
hundred who recently began
crossing the India border with

where he is living in exile.
These are the first refugees
from western Tibet.
Earlier about $4,000 Tibetans
fed eastern and central Tibet.
Reforms by Terror
The Dalai Lama and his cab
met said the Chinese Commu-
nists had a program Of re-
forms. But what the Chinese
considered reforms were CON

terrorization of people, he
said.

DETROIT. Nov. IA (AP).-
A wife who is duller than her

a happy marriage than one who
is smarter than he is.
That, at least, is the prelimi-
nary conclusion Of extensive
research Of Duke University
psychiatristS into the marital
bliss Of couples aged so to SO.
This generally jibes with ear
lier findings about younger
couples.
The new findings were given
by Duke doctors Ewald w.
Busse and Carl Eisdorfer be-
fore the Chronological Society,
which wound up its three-day
annual meeting here today.
CHRONOLOGY is the scientific
study Of old age.
The doctors arrived at their
conclusion after interviewing
the couples and giving them
intelligence and psychological
tests.
Besides finding that among
a much higher number of the
less happy couples the wife was
mentally superior, the two said.
their study showed that mar
riage is more likely to be happy
if the husband is considerably
older than his wife.
None of these couples was

reported. Hence, by most social
criteria they are successful

THE DANCE
BY HARRY MACARTHUR
Star STAFF Writer

Sol Hurok. a one-man cul-
tural exchange program of pro-
digious scope, has now brought
us another set of exotic visi-
tors rating as something spe-
cial. the Bayanihan Philippine
Dance Company. The troupe
appeared last night at Lisner
Auditorium before a glittering
audience that was a cheering
one before the evening was very
old. 1t will repeat the perform
ance this afternoon at 2:30,
same place.
A lyric Ira Gershwin penned
for Peggy and Bess" describes
as well as anything the reac-
ton to a first encounter with
the Bayanihan company. Little
David was small, but OH. my.
When it comes to spectacle,
these dancers from the Phillip
pines can out-dazzle anyone we
have seen in recent months,
and we've seen some Goliaths.
This is most evident in the
Muslin Suite" which gives
the first half of the program
its rousing finale. This is a
dance called "Singkil," in
which a princess and her at
tendant dance in and cut be-
tween bamboo poles being
clapped together at an in
creasingly fast pitch. Brilliantly
costumed and danced at this
eyer rising frenzy, it churns
up abundant excitement.
The principal "Singkil" dane
ers last night were Rosalinda
Anido as the princess and Car
melita Ramos as her attendant.
There is no comparison to base
this on but it seems safe to say
that they dance it as well as
you'll ever see it danced.
There is considerable variety
in the Bayanihan program; also
some painless education. You
may never have known, for in
stance, that there are some
100000 Filipinos on Mindanao
and the Sulu Archipelago who
are firmly Mohammedan. 1t is
their culture that has provided
the Muslin Suite" with its
touches of Oriental splendor
and it's reminders of Arabian
and Indo-Malayan influences.
Dances of the Mountain Re-
gion," spectacular in a more
primitive way, drop a hint here
and there that Philippine and
African cultures crossed paths
somewhere back there. Or hints
that primitive men everywhere
were inspired to much the same
sort of dancing to celebrate a
wedding, a festival or a victory,
or prepare for war, or mourn a
departed friend.
These mountain dances, burst
ing with life and vigor. also

tranged husband. and then
bring the two together and
urge reconciliation.
Under the provisions Of Ital-
ian law for legal separation,
neither Miss Callas nor Mr..
Meneghini is free to remarry.
There is no divorce In italy.
After the attempts to get
the couple to reconcile proved
fruitless, the Judge urged them
to separate by consent. The
procedure required six hours
and IS minutes before the
agreement was worked out.
The separation by mutual
consent prevented details Of Mr..
Meneghini's suit from becoming
part of the public record
The hearing in the Judges
chambers was closed and 1t
was not until the agreement
had been worked out that watt
ing reporters learned what had
happened.
Court sources declined to dis
close terms of the financial
settlement Italian newspapers
have estimated the amount Of
common property involved at
about 81 million. Mr.. Meneghini
originally was reported to have
asked for so per cent of the
common property.
Miss Callas swept into the
court sporting a hair-d0 as
fiery as her temperament. Her
hair was bright red, but re-
porterS were unable to tell
whether it was a dye job or a
wig. She would not say.
