GLAMOUR IS THEIR BUSINESS ....~.. -...
How He Lost so Pounds
Ernie Kovocs Changed His Eating Habits
BY LYDIA LANE
Times-Mirror Syndicate

HOLLYWOOD.-When Err
ME Kovacs dropped nearly SO
pounds, his friends waited to
see him gain it all back
again. But now after three
years, Ernie still weighs 178
instead Of 227.
How did you lick your
problem?" I asked Mr..
Kovacs one morning recently
when I visited with him in
Beverly Hills.
II got tired of being heavy.
It slowed me down. I felt
sluggish and decided to re-
duce. This is by far the most
important step-the mental
one" Ernie declared. "Once
you'll do it now and not to-
morrow, the rest is easy"
"EaSy?" I queried with
surprise.
1T knew that I had to do
it without pills and without
will power. I challenged my
self to get thin, and then it
became a game. Yes" Ernie
said, "an enjoyable one. I
allowed myself 1000 calories
a day, and I knew if I spent
these wisely, I would not be
hungry. The trick is to find
filling, low-calorie foods. A
hard-boiled egg and a stalk
Of celery are more filling
than a tablespoon Of olive oil
but they both add up to the
same count.
Eating Habits
IT changed my eating
habits. I concentrated on
protein, fresh fruits and
vegetables. gave up sweets,
Italian food, bread and but
ter. I think you have to un-
derstand your type. I am not
one for lots of will power. If
I wanted a hot fudge sundae
with whipped cream and
nuts, I ate it. And after
ward. I made up for it with
q stark diet. / didn't do it
often, but I didn't try to see
how much will power I had.
"Edie made it easier for
me-" he added. When he
mentioned his wife. Edie
Adams, his voice took on a
softer tone. "She is the
sweetest girl in the world"
At this point Edie came
into the patio and said,
What are you two talking
about?"
They're waiting for me at
work." Ernie said as he
dashed off to his TV show.
Ernie'S show is Take a Good
Look" on ABC-TV.
A Help
Your husband said you
were a great help while he
was dieting" told Edie.
II got in the act" Edie de-
clared. Il didn't serve any,
thing Ernie couldn't eat. I'm
proud of the way he's stayed
thin, but he kids about it be-
ing too expensive to get fat

DeMoss, Foster.
Slated for New
Coaching Posts
Photo by Ed Mervis

Jim DeMoss, head track coach
at Northwood for the last five
years, has been named as head
football coach replacing Bob
Foster who will move on to
Bethesda. Chevy Chase as head
basketball coach.
While neither move has been
announced by school officials
who declined to comment, it is
definitely known that DeMoss
has accepted the Northwood job
and reliable sources place Fos-
ter at B-CC.
Floris DAVIDSON who won
bees first state basketball
title in 1859 asked to be relieved
of coaching duties after his
championship season for health
reasons, but coached this past
season until a suitable replace
ment could be found. Indica-
tons are that Foster, with this
background of college and high
school basketball coaching, is
that replacement.
DeMoss came to Northwood
after two years as head foot
ball coach at Southern Garrett
County High in Oakland, Mary
land. He is a graduate of the
University of West Virginia
with a degree in education,
math and science.
Foster had previously been
an assistant football coach at
B-CC before leaving for North
wood and a head coaching job
two years ago. Prior to that
he served as football coach at
High Point High for four years
after a basketball coaching po-
sition at Northwestern High.
He was freshman, then as
sistant varsity basketball coach
at American University for
three years under Dave Car
rasco. Foster will complete his
masters degree in education at
the University of Maryland this
June.

Sixty-two players, including

The results Of the survey

Sprout is q l9-year-old left

FerreI| Attempts to Get
Maxwell Gained Down

DETROIT, Feb. 2 (AP).-
Burned before by an outfield-
er's edict Of play me or trade
me" the Tigers are parrying
Charlie Maxwell's verbal Sun
day punch with a counterattack
Of sweet talk.
"We're not trying to trade
Maxwell" said Tiger Vice
President Rick Ferrell, who
still flinches with horror at
the memory of the Tito Fran
coma deal two years ago.
Were depending on him. We
like him. haven't discussed
him in a trade, and he's very
much on our ball club"
Ferrell engineered a trade
with Cleveland for aging Larry
Dolby in 1859 when Francona
demanded that he play or be
sent elsewhere. Dolby lasted
about a month with Detroit.
Francona batted 1853 with the
Indians.
Maxwell, who'd win every
popularity contest among De-
troit fans. issued his ultimatum
to Ferrell yesterday.
They can play me or trade
me, it doesn't make much
difference which," Maxwell
said from his Paw Paw, Mich.
home. But I'm getting sick
of being listed as the fourth
outfielder and the fourth first
baseman in their early plans
for this season."
The outfielder is disgruntled
because Of Manager Bob Schef-
fing's announced outfield align
ment for next season. Schef-
fling plans to use AL Kaline in
rightfield, Rocky Colavito In
left and newly acquired Bill
Bruton in center.
That leaves Maxwell-whose
popularity stems from his un-
canny knack of slugging Sun
day homers-on the bench, or
with a remote chance Of beat

MIAMI, Feb. 2 (AP).-Ef-
forts of major league baseball
clubs to end racial segregation
at spring training sites have
met barriers of silence or
drawn politely negative replies.
At issue Is the question Of
whether Negro players on the
big league teams which train in
Florida will be allowed to use
the same hotel and dining room
facilities as their white team
mates.
Dan Topping, president Of
the New York Yankees, took
the lead in the movement after
DR.. Ralph Wimbish Of st.
Petersburg, a Negro leader who
has helped find adequate houS-
ing for Negro players there for
several years, suggested it was
time for the Yanks and the
st. Louis Cardinals to take
steps to end segregation.
In reply to Topping'S pro-
posal that the entire Yankee
team should be housed under
one roof, the manager and as
sistant manager Of their head
quarters hotel issued identical
statements that I'VE hope to
have them with US for many
years to come"
The Yanks' hotel and that
occupied by the Cardinals are
operated as part Of a big chain.
It's president was not available
for comment.
A Miami hotel spokesman
said one team, which he re-
fused to identify, had Cancelled
reservations because Of q bar
on Negro guests. He refused
