Essentially Suburban
Until three weeks ago, the
married men here lived a life
that was essentially suburban,
They had pleasant little one
story bungalows, pretty lawns
and station wagons. Their chill
dren went to schools and teen
ayers clubs and their wives
shopped, cooked and belonged
to various clubs.
The men had their jobs and,
at night, probably more social
activities than are available in
Falls Church, or HyattSville or
Washington itself. The single
men lived in barracks, but, ex-
cept for the absence of eligible
girls to date, their life was
basically pleasant.

sile crisis on october %, and
Guantanamo Bay was trans
formed from suburbia into a

The scene could have been in the
1940s when Gandhi was holding

First Film
Actually it is a scene from a film,
the first motion picture about Gand-
his life allowed by the Indian Gov
eminent since his death ID years
ago.
The movie is Mine Hours to Rama
God" produced and directed by
Mark Robson. 1t is largely a sus-
pense film, with Jose Ferrer in the
role of an Indian police superin-
tendent who has nine hours in which
to try to stop Gandhi's assassination
by an Indian youth played by Horst
Bucholz.
Perhaps the greatest impact of
the film, however, is the brief ap-
pearance of Gandhi's figure in two
scenes. One shows his intimates
trying to talk him out of attending
the regular prayer meeting because
of a suspected plot on his life He

his hips, while singing 1.-THE Twist
The dance being performed by teen
ayers, their parents and even their
grandparents represents mass eff
fort to initiate what Checker does
while he sings.
Probably the. best way to describe
The Twist is to explain that when
dancers perform it incorrectly
they seem to be trying to do the
hula or rhumba.
In correctly performed Twist,
the shoulders are held still and the
feet scarcely move The arms are
moved back and forth somewhat in
the manner of participants in a
walking race and the hips gyrate in
a manner certain to remove inches
from over-large expanses and send
middleaged men to the nearest ortho-
pedist.
Most important-one never smiles
while doing the twist. Nobody is
supposed to be able to tell whether
you are having a good time while
doing it. Never look at your partner.
and don't worry about whether you
both are doing the same step. This
dance is even more impersonal than

W QUEST s
 AND ANSWER $

QUESTION: What proofs do I need when file my claim for social security benefits?
 ANSWER: That will depend on many things, such as your age, when you are retiring and what type of work you have been doing If you call the so- cial security office about three months before you plan to re- tire, you will be told what proofs will be needed in your case. Then, when you come in to the office, if you bring the required proofs, your claim can be processed more speedily.
 QUESTION: have the same name as my mothers and I have been offered part time job on Saturdays. Can I use mothers social security card until the time I apply for my card?

 QUESTION: My maiden name was Sally Brown and I recently married boy by the name of Tom Brown. Do have to report my marriage to social security?
 ANSWER: No, you do not in- asmuch as your last name re- mains unchanged.
