1t was on the whole quite moral.
"Sheer" might be even better.
Both adjectives refer rather
to the essential qualities Of the
picture, action suspense,
tongue-in-cheek nobility or
heroism, wry humor, neatly
masked improbability. Its null
titude of top flight performers,
directed by Carl Foreman, who
also wrote and directed the
film, were pros obviously de-
lighted to find themselves up
TO manly, healthy, vigorous
deeds. They had something
substantial to act and none OF
them needed a prospective
Oscar nomination to spur him
to proper pitch of fervor for
his work.
I None, by the way. got such

a nomination; and the safe bet
is that none could care less.
OF the films seven nominal
tons, Mr.. Foreman gets three.
That's another nice thing for
the Academy's nominations body
polite to have done. 1t Is a
talented and respectable chap
who can come up with a movie
for which he earns best pic
ture, best screenplay, and best
director nominations.
Their cumulative effect might
very well be to win Mr.. Fore
man an Oscar for his trophy
room, or mantle, or where
ever he may care to place a
well-deserved prize for being
one of the industry's most vers-
atile wizard types.

Mexico's divorce laws are pat

MEXICO CITY, Sept. 5
(NANA) The divorce rate in
Mexico has SCARED to a point
where official statistics indi-
cate that rs per cent Of all
matrimonial ventures founder.
Father Jose Antonio Cordero,
member Of the committee Of
the recently initiated National
Reconciliation Campaign, said
that official estimates are "con-
servative," for they account for
only divorces that are consum-
mated.
Statistics include only di-
vorces where q couple goes
through legal red tape to q
point where divorce papers are
granted by a competent Judge.
and proper entry is made in the
civil registry.
Father Cordero estimates that
only two out Of ten divorces are
legally documented. In many
cases a couple believes that sim
pie appearance before q civil
court commissioner and the Ill
ing of a preliminary divorce in
tent is all that is required to
dissolve a marriage.
There are innumerable cases
in Mexico of men and women,
married and divorced over ten
times, who feel they have COM
piled with the law even though
they never received any divorce
papers. The government winks
an eye on the practice since 1t
has neither the enforcement
machinery nor the time to in
sist in legally correct di-
vorces."
The alarming trend to d.
vorce, legalized or not, is wit
messed in the rising statistics
of broken homes. abandoned
wives with or without children
and abandoned children. In
many cases both partners just
take off, leaving relatives tc
care for offspring in a hit and

Copy Ideas
From English

American colonists we're
simply taking a page out of
English history when they de-
clared their independence on
July 4, 1875.
Many of the ideas contained
in the Declaration of Indepen-
dence has been used by the Eng
lish to justify their own rev.
olution of 1888, explains World
Book Encyclopedia.
1.-THE Glorious Revolution, !"
as the English called 1t, sent
James II fleeing to France and
brought to the throne william
and Mary. 1t also resulted in
a bill of rights that reads sus-
piciously like the forerunner
of the American Declaration.
The "self-evident truths"
and "unalienable rights" noted
in the Declaration, for example,
recall the ''true, ancient, and
indubitable rights" of the Eng
lish documant. Both complained
about taxes. although for differ
ent reasons, and condemned the
maintenance of a standing army.
While the Americans studied
their history books, however,
the British ignored the lesson
with the result that another
glorious revolution rocked
Great Britain and a new ma
ton was born.

homemakers have been plagued
with fading denim for years,
none of them have bothered
to tell the manufacturer. A

complaint from scattered areas

been solved. If the product is
not right, take it back to the

Informed
Agent Says

The consumer of today is
better informed, but there is
more to be informed about. A
half century ago a trip to town
meant the purchase of a few
yards of calico, barrel of
flour, some sugar, perhaps a
new pair of shoes, and a nick
els worth of candy for the
children.
Now when the homemaker
goes on a shopping trip, chan
ces are she will buy as many
as so items In the grocery store
In addition to her other stops
for such things as household
wears, ready-made clothing,
appliances and furniture.
So you can see the home
maker has to move fast to
stay ahead of the retailers who
are competing for her shopping

consumers can do to better

head. Study the facts before
making a major purchase. Do
not buy quickly or on emotion.
It's impossible to getyour mon

Sussex Turf
.Fe ufure at
DeIpork Sat.

Flat racing on the grass, a
phase of the thoroughbred sport
which has become more and
more popular in recent years,
will be the big attraction at
Delaware Park this Saturday
June BOY when the SIS. 900 ad-
ded, l 3/8 miles Sussex Turf
Handicap offers the "grass cut
ters" their richest opportunity
of the meeting.
1t will be the 25th running
of the Sussex, but only the
seventh on the turf course to
which the stake was converted
in 1856.
While grass racing always
has prevailed in most foreign
countries, there was a long
period when it was conspic-
uous by its absence in the u
nited States--between the turn
of the century and 1882. During
the past 80 years, turf courses
in America have mushroomed
at many tracks, Delaware Park
frequently cards two such
events in a single day. While
some other tracks include
sprints among their infield e.
vents, only route races are
scheduled on the Stanton tracks
lush turf strip. 1t always is
Delaware Parks policy to en-
courage distance racing which
calls for stamina, endurance
and courage as we'll as sheer
speed, and 1t is a known fact
that the public likes to see the
horses race past them twice,
in front of the stands.
A somewhat surprising nom :
inee to the Sussex is Mrs.
Richard C. duPont's mighty
Kelso, l960-6l Horse of the
Year. Whether or not the Del
aware sportswoman will act
ually start the great gelding
Saturday was not definite at
this writing, but either way,
the race shapes up as three
star attraction, with numerous
other grass specialists en-
gagged.
Among the most notable nom :
inees are the defending cham =
pion of the Sussex, Stephen C.
Clark, Jr.'s Shield Bearer, who
set a new course record of
2:l5 in galloping to five
lengths success last season;
Milton Ritzenberg's multiple
stakes winner, Wise Ship;
