minimum-sized “evening sarong”

1t may not ba an authentic get
up for @ Hawaiian luau, but 1t was
the U. S. Navy's idea and who's
going to argue with the Navy?
it all started when producer
I{al Wallis cast Corinne as a Navy
pin-up girl for a luau sequence
in the Dean Martin-Jerry Lewis
comedy, = “Sailor Beware.” He
pressed @ buzzer that summoned
paramount fashion.designer Edith
Head to his office. E
“ want you to déign some
thing special for Corinne,” said
wallis to Edith. “I don’t want you
(o design it for me, for you or for
Corinne. I want you to design
comething ~to please the U. S.
Navy.” &'
[t was Edith’s cue and she field
ed it fast.
She telephoned the Navy. -
Official Orders, Yet!
Radarman Terry McGovern of
gan Diego, and- Sonarman Dick
anell of Los Angeles arrived, bug
eved and on official orders, at
paramount Studio to judge what
would please the Navy.

a dim view of the whole thing.
Corinne slipped out of her
dressing room wearing the grass
skirt,
“It's authentic,” beamed Edith.
“It’s awful,” said Radarman Mc-
Govern.
“It burns too easily,” said Son
arman Snell,
‘lt looks like a barrel of hay,”
said McGovern.
Old Stuff
Corinne went- back into her
dressing room and came out wear
ing a native sarong made of tapa
cloth. 4
“This is what Dorothy Lamour
used to wear,” Edith beamed.
“It’'s authentic.”
~ “She looks too much like a na
tive girl,” McGovern groaned.
“It doesn’t cling to her,” Snell
groaned.
“The Navy uses that stuff for
camouflage,” said McGovern, still
groaning.
Edith had an idea.
She took a bolt of pale blue
lame — usually reserved for eve
ning gowns—and molded a scanty
sarong around Corinne’s lush
curves. It was as revealing as a
Kefauver report. It hit Corinne
way above the knees and it hit
the Navv right between the eyes.
“It Isn’t Authentic”
“That’s it,” yelled the radarman,
whose eyes have been trained to
pick up minor details.
Sonarman Snell whistled so loud
that a couple of his pals at sca off
Tahiti joined in.
The flowers between her toes
was Corinne’s own little idea.
“Who,” asked Corinne, wants to

NORTH KORFAN KID SOLDIER
WITH THE FIRST MARINE
DIVISION IN KOREA — (AP) —
Escorting one North Korean pri
soner to the rear was like taking
a 13-year-old orphan for a walk
in the park and climaxing the
outing with an ice-cream cone.
He was just a kid; no bigger
than 10-year-old boys in your
neighborhood. The mascot-sized
soldier had deserted from the
North Korean People’s Army be
lieveing that Americans would not
mistreat him. He carried a Rus
sian-type rifle 2 inches taller than
he.
Since 1939 the railway passenger
industry has piled up a deficit of
more than two billion dollars.

SINGAPORE — (AP) — Entry |
of Japanese into Malaya should be

The consensus in Malaya is un- |
favorable to admission of Japan- |
ase. But he said their entry could
be restricted by new immigration
rules. Only essential Japanese in
stitutions such as banks and ship- |

Oscar Lohner's |
One-Man Opera
The Real Thi
BY REMO MACCHINI
NEA Staff Correspondent
CHICAGO.— (NEA) —Don’t go
near ‘Oscar Lohner’s apartment
unless you like opera. The guy is
an unofficial, unpaid, unstoppable
salesman of grand opera. Anybody
who walks in the door gets a di- i
gested version of an opera thrown |
at him, complete with costumes, |
musie and scenery. |
Officially, Lohner gives his one- |
man performances in his living |
room every other week. They at- |
tract quite an audience, because |
he is the only one-man opera com- '
pany in a 14-room apartment on |
Chicago’s southside. Also, he is a |
very informative and entertaining |
person. {
Lohner is a big, jovial man of |
50. During the day, he is an in
terpreter for an airline. At night, |
though, his other side comes outi
and he is an opera. Not just one |
character; Lohner is a whole op- ’
era all by his big, jovial self. I
Miniature Stage i
One corner of his living room
is transformed into a miniature |
stage, equipped with colored lights |
and curtains and a set. The set is ‘
backed up by a big painting of |
the scene, and on the stage Loh- |
ner places a few props necessary
to the action,
The audience — friends and
sometimes visiting dignitaries—
are seated, and Lohner disappears
into the bedroom where he chan
ges into costume.
He comes out in different
clothes and a different mood. He
is no longer Oscar, the host. He is |
now Lohner, the opera. He begins
by describing the opera he is pre
senting. With vivid actions and
insertions of humor and /or de
spair, he tells the story act by act,
scene by scene, aria by aria.
Then he darts behind the cur
tain to ' start the phonograph.-
Long-playing records of the
night’s opera are ready. The over
ture begins.
While the music plays and the
recorded stars perform, Lohner
acts out the part and translates
the singing into English. He loves |
and .Jaughs and sobs and, some
times, drops dead. It is very au-t
thentic. ‘
Audience Repeats
Some of his audience come back
for performance after perform
ance. They have contributey scen
ery; draperies and props to his
living roonr La Scala. Lohner var- l
ies- his performances; his reper-{
toire includes dozens of aperas, '
but his favorites are Rigoletto,l
Faust and Tosca. s
There is a real crusade behind |
what Tohner calls his “Home Op- |
era Club.” It is designed simply{
to give people a better under- |
standing of grand opera. - ;
' “No amount of labor, effort,
cost, study or time,” he says, “can.
deter me from my battle in be
half of that almost unknown step
ichild, opera. Once the. plots un
derlying the individual operas are
known to the average American,
the language Dbarrier will be at
least half-raised.”
Opera stars he's met in his air
