CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (AP) — Grace Kelly, who left a
Hollywood acting career 21 years ago to become a real-life
princess, is reportedly considering a return to the stage.
Princess Grace of Monaco is booked for two dates this
spring at Harvard University’s Loeb Drama Center for
readings from Shakespeare and possibly other writers.
Douglas Schwalbe, Loeb’s managing director, said
negotiations are not complete but he added that per
formances have been scheduled March 16 and 17. Richard
Pasco of England’s Royal Shakespeare Company will
appear with Princess Grace, Schwalbe said.
Performances are also planned at Carnegie-Mellon
University in Pittsburgh a week earlier and at Princeton
University’s McCarter Theater after the company plays
here, he said.
Spider Sabich‘s parents
ASPEN, Colo. (AP) — The parents of Claudine Longet’s
slain lover, Spider Sabich, have taken Dist. Atty. Frank
Tucker to court in an effort to gain release of the
prosecutor’s files on the entertainer.
But Tucker told Judge J. E. Devilbiss Wednesday it
would not be in the public interest to release them. He said
the files consisted of memos from Miss Longet’s January
trial and his impressions of her diary, which was not used
as evidence in her trial.
Tucker said he had told the Sabiches at first they could
have the files, but changed his mind when he read the
applicable law.
Sabich, a professional skier, was shot to death more
than a year ago in the home he shared with Miss Longet.
The singer was convicted in January of criminally
negligent homicide and served 30 days in jail.
Elizabeth Ray
WASHINGTON (AP) — “It’s a scary, freaky feeling” to
be told people are asking about your death, Elizabeth Ray
says in scotching rumors of her demise.
Miss Ray, the one-time congressional aide who ended
former Rep. Wayne Hays’ career by revealing she was
paid $14,000 in tax money to be Hays’ mistress, was the
subject of rumors in Los Angeles about her death Wed
nesday.
Reporters contacted her attorney, who contacted Miss
Ray.
She said she believed the rumor was started by an angry
former boyfriend.
Spencer W. Kimball
SALT LAKE CITY (AP) - Mormon Church President
Spencer W. Kimball, 82, was reported in good condition
and resting comfortably today after being hospitalized for
breathing difficulties.
He was taken by ambulance to LDS Hospital on Wed
nesday after becoming ill during a church Board of
Education meeting, church spokesman Wendell Ashton
said.
“The diagnostic testing is continuing, and no serious
health problems have been determined,” said Dr. Ernest
L. Wilkinson in a statement released by the church.
Ethiopia, Somalia
break relations
NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) -
Diplomats in Nairobi see Ethi
opia’s break in diplomatic re
lations with Somalia as the pre
lude to a declaration of war or
an effort to pressure the Krem
lin into cutting off arms to the
Somalis.
A broadcast from Addis
Ababa Wednesday night said
Ethiopia’s ruling military coun
cil had ordered Somali diplo
mats to leave the country within
48 hours.
The Ethiopians claim that So
mali army troops are fighting
alongside the insurgents in
southeastern Ethiopia who are
fighting to unite the Ogaden
area with Somalia. Most diplo
mats in Nairobi believe the
claim is true.
The Somalis have denied any
direct participation although
they acknowledge training and
arming the 3,000 to 6,000 guer
rillas of the Western Somali
Liberation Front, who are eth
nic Somali tribesmen.
The Somalis claim that Cuba
and Czechoslovakia are helping
the Ethiopian troops, a claim
Addis Ababa denies.
Diplomats in Nairobi said So
malia might welcome a declar
ation of war so it could fight the
Ethiopians openly.
The rebels claim they control

95 per cent of the Ogaden. A
hard fight is reported under
way for the town of Jijiga, in the
northern part of the territory.
Jijiga and the two nearby towns
of Harar and Diredawa are
reported to be the last Ethiopian
holdings in the disputed area.
Diplomats said Ethiopia’s of
ficial break with Somalia could
force the Soviet Union to make a
final choice between its two
East African clients. These
sources believe the Russians
will back their newer and more
populous ally, Ethiopia, even
though it would mean the loss of
the new Soviet naval base in the
Somali port of Berbera.
Moscow has been supplying
arms to Somalia and training its
troops since 1960, when Ethiopia
was still ruled by proWestern
Emperor Haile Selassie. But the
leftist officers who overthrew
the emperor have cut their
military ties with the United
States and turned to Moscow
instead.
The Russians have publicly
called on both sides to come to
terms. But they have reportedly
cut back arms supplies to
Somalia, and reports of Somali
President Mohammed Siad
Barre’s visit to Moscow last
week indicated he was unable to
get a promise of more help.
Plastic surgery for cancer victims defended
CHICAGO (AP) — Women who have had breast cancer
operations should not be stigmatized for wanting plastic
surgery to give them a new breast rather than a
prosthesis made of cloth or plastic, says an American
Cancer Society official.
“It seems grossly unfair that once she has lost her
breast, there is a stigma attached to wanting to get it
back,” Francine E. Timothy told the society’s second
national conference on human values and cancer on
Wednesday.
“Whether a woman can have breast reconstruction is
entirely up to the surgeon, but she should at least be
allowed to want one without being judged,” said Mrs.
Timothy, who is director of the society’s Reach to
Recovery Program and who has had a breast removed.
The agency is designed to help women who have had
mastectomies, or surgical removal of the breast.
“For some women, the hope of an eventual (breast)

reconstruction is the one thing that makes them hold on to
life which may already be complicated or depressing”
because of a breast amputation, she told about 1,700
persons at the conference.
“Any amputation is a terrible thing, but some am
putations are more symbolic than others, and this par
ticular one causes an internal turmoil that logical
reasoning doesn’t quiet,” said Mrs. Timothy.
Many woman have no idea to whom they could ask
questions about a reconstruction, and often don’t ask at all
out of timidity. It is the fear of being judged vain or
frivolous that keeps some women from looking into the
possibilities, she said.
Artificial breasts, made of cloth and plastic, are worn
by thousands of women who have lost a breast to cancer.
Instead of prosthesis, many women wish to have plastic
surgery to give them a new breast, and they have many

reasons for the desire, said Mrs. Timothy, who said she
has not had plastic surgery.
“Imagine, each one of you, that every single morning
you must attach an extra thing to your body, a thing of
considerable weight which you can’t forget, ever, during
the day because it must constantly be checked,” Mrs.
Timothy said.
“In my interviews with operated women, I found that
young women care desperately about being obliged to live
with only one breast, but I found that married women care
as much, and single women care as much and older
women care as much.”
“Perhaps,” Mrs. Timothy continued, “breast recon
struction is almost more important to an older woman. A
mastectomy is particularly hard on a woman who is
already having trouble accepting the fact of growing
older.”
