beats Stringing them on a safe

By JOHN FINLAYSON

- 9TH Connie Hines and
H. Alan Young, the human
co-StarS of Mister
Ed" are riding a winning horse
and a talking one at that-on the
CBS-TV serial hit.
As Carol Post on the poular show,
Connie, a former model, doesn't
mind playing second lead to a
horse, nor does Young, who enactS
her husband.
Despite the fact much of the fan
mail we receive is directed to Mis-
ter Ed, the show has been good for
both of u.s." Connie said. For Alan
it provided a much-deserved come
back; for me an acting break.
1T was another stepping-stone
in a career that was almost Stymied
because | had somehow become
labeled as a Photographic model
doing TV commercials.
1T took a long time to convince
producers that | wasn't just a model
who wanted to act, despite all my
experience as a stock player.

Carol said, and made it appear
that | was an actress who models

wasn't too far from the truth"
The daughter of drama coach
John E. Hines, who helped develop
such stars as Margaret SULLIVAN
and Jeff Donnell, Connie was Sc
lected for Mister Ed" by TV pro-
Queer AL Simon, who had previously
turned her down for a movie role
in "2l Beacon Street."

that the nations Negroes be

The Governor said 'The ends of Justice will

Johnson was convicted in Anne Arundel County

to die by Judge Matthew S. Evans.
All avenues of appeal were exhausted before
the defense attorneys, the Giles-JOhnsOn Defense
Committee and other concerned citizens turned

Gov. Tawes stayed the executions of the Giles

which was set for this Friday in Baltimore.

SOUPED-UP CAR
For $40 He Wants a New Picture
By DAVID BRAATEN

Everyone knows a 10-dollar
bill doesn't go very far these
days.
But it took R. w. Gable to
explain why: It's that antique
car in the picture of the
Treasury on the back of the
bill.
Mr.. Gable lives in Mia m l.
Fla. and is evidently wealthy.
At least he's well enough off to
be able to hang onto a tenspot
long enough to study the back,
which puts him one up on most
of us.
Anyhow, Mr.. Gable felt so
strongly about the bad image
the old car gives America that
he wrote his Congressman.
I'VE could present a better
impression OF our progress as a
country if this symbol were
either updated periodically or
removed (from the bilD entire
ly," he wrote. I'm sure these
bills are widely circula tie d
throughout the world and GER
tainly noticed by some of those
peoples whom we wish to i'm

Mr.. Gable is right about the

reflected on the bill. Close

blance at all to the present.
