Corbit House Gardens
At Height In Fall

white pebbles form a Chinese
lattice pattern similar to that
of the Chinese Chippendale
railing of the roof deck of the
house.
Of the fifty varieties of a
romatic herbs in the long rec
tangular beds, many have nos
talgic associations. There is
rosemary ''for remembrance"
rue, the symbol of sorrow and
regret; and basil, the symbol
of love. Tansy and balm of
Gilead, which In days gone by
we're brewed into nerve
calming teas, grow near rose
geranium which added flavor to
iellies, and horehound which
titillated the taste In winter
time candies. Two kinds of
artemesia with the fetching
names of Old Man and Old
Woman are of the types which
we're fashioned into sachets.
The trim garden is patterned
after those of colonial days,
and was laid out by H. Rod
ney Sharp, of Wilmington, Del
aware, when he was restoring
the Corbit House which he &C
quired in 1898. The house, built
by William Corbit between l772
and l774, is recognized as one
of the great Georgian houses of
the Eastern Seaboard. 1t is fur
nished throughout with eight
eenth- and ear1y-nineteenth-
century antiques.
The Corbit House and gar
den are open to the public from
10 am. to 5 pm. Tuesday.
Thursdays, and Saturdays, and
from 2 to 5 pm. on Sundays.

Or she'll put them outdoors in
the shade, says Mrs. Thomas,
Sheets hung in bright sunshine
for an hour and a half also
showed little yellowing. But be-
yond that there was a visible
difference In whiteness.
Besides, as long as 6 hours
In the sun will weaken the fab
ric in a sheet. Even unbleached
muslin suffers when left In the
sun that long.
So, If you prefer to hang
your sheets outdoors--so they
get that fresh-air smell-do 1t
wisely. Hang them In the shade
or in a limited amount of sun
shine only long enough to get
them dry.
If the choice is between sun
shine and the dryer-choose the
dryer. It's quicker and easier,
and often more convenient for
the busy homemaker. And the
difference in yellowing is ne
eligible.

Survey To
Determine
Federal Aid

Smyrna School Officials an
nounced today that a survey
will be made on Monday, Oc-
tober s, 1862, to determine
whether the Smyrna District
is eligible for Federal Funds
under Public Law 874. The
Smyrna District received $40,
$500 as a result of the sur
veys conducted in September
and May of last year. In order
to receive federal funds under
P.L. 874, a school districtmust
prove that at least So of its
pupils qualify as federally con-
nected. A student may be con-
sidered to be federally con-
nected if:
(l) Either parent, or guar
dian, is in the military SER
vice.
~ Elmer parent, or guar
dian, is employed on federal
property (example:father works
for Hays Co. atDover Air Force
Base, or guardian with whom
child lives works at V. A.
Hospital, Elsmere, Delaware).
[3) Pupil lives on federal
property Bombay Hook Wild
life Refugee.
The District is required to
make a survey each year. The
survey forms are held for audit
by a representative of the De-
partment of Health, Education,
and Welfare. The amount of fed
eral funds the District receives
is based on the number of fed
orally connected students as
established by the survey and
verified by the audit. 1t is,
therefore, very important that
the forms be completed and re-
turned to the School District
as promptly as possible.

Nothing Like
Good Old
Sunshine

There are still many home
makers who believe there's no
thing like sunshine for drying
white clothes. And they like to
hang their sheets on the line
even though they may have a
dryer.
And it's true. Automatic dry
ers do tend to yellow white mus :
lin. But so does to much sun,
warns Katie Thomas Kent
County Home Economics Ex-
tension Agent.
Tests made by textile spec
ialists at the Oklahoma Agri-
cultural Experiment Station
show that six hours In the sun
produce nearly as much yell
lowing as a run in the auto
matte dryer.
The homemaker who really
wants her white clothes to stay
white will hang them indoors.

Rusty-red and yellow chry-
santhemums will be at their
height In October as Indian
summer comes to the small
formal garden of the Corbit
House at Odessa, Delaware, on
the banks of the Appoquinimink
Greek. The anticipated bloom
ing period will be from Octo-
Der 7 to the end of the month.
AT the same time, the savory
herbs, which grow profusely in
beds flanking the central dis
play, will'be at the peak of their
fragrance, and the autumn
aroma of burning leaves will
scent the air of this quiet
eighteenth-century town.
On a knoll In front of the
house, the brilliant red and
yellow leaves of oak, mapel,
and linden trees will mingle
with the soft greens of the
conifers and evergreens, and
beyond the spacious lawn which
sweeps down to the marshes of
the Appoquinimink, these same
autumn colors will brighten the
far bank of the creek.
In the Corbit House gar
den blue ageratum will be seen
blossoming beneath the taller
chrysanthemums. Each of the
eight beds In this central sec
tion is edged with small box
wood bushes to accentuate the

the design of the octagonal herb
house nearby. At the far end of

ITS tragic that Fox is in
such trouble" Wanger re-
piled. but it wasn't Cleo

their record for the past few
years; every picture lost
money. If Cleopatra does as
well as I am sure it will, the
studio could make q hum
bred million dollars from it.
But I did have problems with
the studio. I've been on my
own so long I found 1t hard
to work with studio officials.
I had to go through eight ex-
ecutives and all their relatives
for everything. I was told I
couldn't talk to an actor
about q job in the picture
without going through the
casting office. 1t was a con-
tinual battle from the first
day. But I believe the fin
ished result will justify all
the grief and anxiety and all
the expense"

No miniatures for the boats
or the battles. We had an
Admiral in charge Of the sea
battles, he had six bona fide
captains under him. We had
six enormous ships. Cleo
patra's barge cost $4,000
alone"
Weather No Help
When I was in Rome pre-
viously I was told that The
Forum. built with steel and
concrete, cost 81 million and
The Palace Of Alexandria,
re-created at nearby Anzio
Beach, nicked the Fox ex-
chequer for another million
and a quarter.
Then there was the wealth

to start Cleopatra" in Oc-
tober, the beginning of win
ter in Rome" Wagner as
sured me. 1T was to go in
the spring of 80. But there
was that time limit with
Elizabeth. When it rained,
thousands Of extras had to
be sent home and there were
no cover sets for the cast
and crew to continue work
ing. This cost untold thou
sands of dollars" Thirty
thousand dollars for every
day of rain!
Elizabeth's health, which
had caused the most appre-
henSion in restarting Cleo
patra." was better than any
one elSe's in Rome except for
three times she could not re-
port for work-one time she
had two black eyes and a
bruised nose, once when she
was rushed to the hospital
with a mystery ailmert for
which there are all sorts of
reasons. And another time,
as Cleo, Elizabeth. with a
short sword had to slash all
of Antony's clothing no. not
him, it was all in a heap.
She slashed so hard for so
many takes that her hands
were stiff and bleeding and
she couldn't work for several
days.
To go back to the expenses.
About a million dollars
worth of sets we're left to
disintegrate in England. Dit

could have had a romance

finished. How did it cost so
much? First of all, after
London and her desperate
illness, we didn't know when
she could work again. Then
she won the Academy Award
and went to Palm Springs
where her recovery was mi
raculous. Her agent gave us
a date when she could work,
and a time limit for her
services and, instead of the
six months or more to pre-
pare his new script, Joe
Mankiewicz had only three
months.
do you realize that when
Willie Wyler made 'Ben-Hur'
he spent one year and a half
in Rome preparing the script
and the picture? Looking
back we realize it would have
been the smart thing to have
given Elizabeth half a mil
lion dollars to wait six
months to give us time to
prepare this big picture.
Expensive Overtime
The top stars - Taylor,
Burton, Rex Harrison and
Roddy Mcdowell we're paid
from $1,000 a week to $4,000
a week EXTRA when their
time limits expired. Eliza
beth, at the top, started get
ting hers in Dece ber-
nearly a quarter of a mil
lion dollars a month EXTRA
for six months. Burton's
overtime started in Febru-
airy. Harrison repeatedly re-
ceived 100000. And when
MCDOWELL was complaining
about how weary he was of
the movie, a friend, said
BE grateful. you are now
rich enough to refuse to
make pictures you don't
like"
Another thing" the vet
eran producer-he's been at
it 40 years-continued, "peo-
pie who are not in show
business don't understand all
the travail and expense in
bringing a big company to a
foreign location. But no pic
ture in the history of films

and no expense spared. We
did everything most mag
nificently. There is nothing
cheap or fake in Cleopatra.

ROME. - Walter Wanger

quite scandalous photo
graphs Of Elizabeth Taylor

boat in Ischia recently, were
posed for their own photog-
rapher and they would never
have been published but for

if true, why? }
I dined with Walter before
he took off for Egypt to try

money went, and how was 1t
possible that something like
S32 million went into his

IT started the project five
years ago." he told me. Il

Taylor. I must confess, no
body else at Fox wanted her.
Yes; there have been a lot
of problems, and I've been
very worried, very concerned.
I've lain awake at night and
felt very badly. But no one
can be a producer unless he
expects problems. When I
had a heart attack six years

stop worrying. I've tried, too.
But it isn't easy.

ling the elaborate and decep-

The CHA had no facilities, so
the Air Force would have to
take care of operations and
logiSticS. But since military
overtones were to be avoided,
a civilian" front would be re-
quired.
An approach was made to
Gen. James Doolittle, the leader
of the first bomber raid on To-
kyo during World War II. He
was a member of the National
Advisory Committee for Aero
nautics and one of the original
members of the Presidents
Board of Consultants on For
eign Intelligence Activities.
Doolittle was asked to bring
NACA into the operation as the
cover for the U-2's espionage
activities. He took the idea to
Dryden. then director of NACA,
and Dryden accepted it imme-
diately. NACA would be given
access to the U-2 for high
altitude research, but its prin-
cipal role would be to conceal
the CIA's hand.
Despite the monumental Sc
curity problem, BiSSell managed
to keep his program a secret to
the world and to most of the
Government. He did so by run

Mr.. Thant recalled that he

High altitude tests, he said, are
more Objectionable than other

His views were expressed at

He declined to elaborate on
his reference to psychoSis.
Mr.. Thant cited two reasons
for his opposition to high alti-
