ers table: Dr. and Mrs. Jonathan

the University of Georgia; Mrs.
Harmon W. Caldwell of Atlanta,
Dean and Mrs. Alvin Biscoe, Dean

ander A. Lawrence of Savannah
and his sister, Mrs. Harriet Law

W. Caldwell and President O. C.
Aderhold were detained in Atlan

Dr, Jonathan C. Rogers greeted

come up at Gettysburg” and the
Confederates had scored a victory.
then pushing this advantage if
they had gone on to capture Wash
ington and the North and won the
War. Reconstruction of the North
and a final woulr of peace brought
about by the Soutn climaxed this
unusual and very entertaining
speach.
The winter months are the best
ones for preparing permanent pas
tures and for applying lime and
phosphate to improve pastures,

'Hlopement’ Gathers
Departing from his Belvedere
role, Clifton Webb leads a
trio of co-stars, Anne Francis,
Charles Bickford and William
Lundigan, through some hilarious
antics in ‘Elopement,” Twentieth
Century-Fox’s human interest
comedy which opens at the Strand
Theatre today. In the picture
Webb plays the role of a harried,
though sharp-tempered parent
who worries about the midnight
elopement of his daughter, played
by Miss Francis, and a young col
lege professor, William Lundigan,
The complications which arise [
from this situation and the enmity
that develops between the fami
lies of the girl and the boy all add
up to a swiftly moving story
which Director Henry Koster has
embellished with deft direction. |
“Elopement” gives Miss Fran-l
cis her first step toward the star- |
dom she has been looking forward I
to for 13 years. Although she is
only 20, she has crammed a lot of |
experience on the Broadway stage, i
in summer stock and on radio into |
her apprenticeship for the movies. |
The distaff side of the cast for |
“Elopement” has a trio of veteran ‘
actresses in support of veleran
actress Anne, They are Evelyn!
Varden, who recently finished a |
long New York run in “aneoi
and Juliet,” Margalo Gillmore, I
just back from a London engage- i
ment in “All My Sons” and Julia |
Dean, who came out of retirement |
to play the important role of the ‘
farmer’s wife in the picture. Miss |
Nean, who has been away from |
the stage for 25 years, first ap- |
peared with Joseph Jefferson in |
grandma’s day. ;
Clifton Webb, who has mastered |
Yogi, pole vaulting and oatmeal |
bowl swinging for some of his pre- |
vious pictures, comes up with a |
new accomplishment in this com- |
edy—a bubble gum blower of |
championship calibre. After con- |
siderable practice in the privacy of |
his home, he blew a bubble the |
size of a basketball for the bubkle |
gum sequence with little Tommy
' Rettig. Charles Bickford plays the
| father of seven, not quite equai
ling Webb’s father role in “Cheap- |
er By The Dozen.” ;
In asking all of us te know and |
obey our traffic laws, our Georgia {
State Patrol warns us rot to learn i
these laws by accident. Know |
your- laws, know your highway, |
know your car and knaw your- |
| self, Ignorance is no excuse and |
‘if::omn'-?_ can put a driver where |
np eveuss in the world would
| malke any dilierence. '

If everyone had obeyed traffic
laws to the letter, over 700 of the
933 people who died in Georgia
traffic last year would be alive
today. Yes, our Georgia State Pa
trol tells us that this high per
centage of deaths results from
violation of laws made to protect
us. Obey them and live.

Teen Talk
BY VIVIAN BROWN
AP Newsfeatures
Two adventurous girls who re=
cently hitch-hiked 60,000 m3iles
through 39 countries promy
hold the world’s record for girl
hitch-hikeis. Furthermore, the
girls—Phyllis Burke, 21, of Qobbs
Ferry, N. Y., and Beverly Drake,
25, now of Australia—spent only
SSOO each and the cost of a round
trip third-class passage to Europe,
for their year of travel, y
How did they manage to live
and travel on a shoestring? Phyl
lis says it was easy because ‘“peo
ple all over the world opened their
hearts and homes to us.” She ex
plains:
“We traveled by bicycle, horse
and buggy, auto, truck, camels,
‘boats, elephants and airplane. The
airlines people were particularly
nice to us. Whenever plane wan't
crowded we could get a free air
lift to another country — most of
the time with RAF or UN planes,
The British embassies throughout
the world were particularly cor
dial to us and many times were
helpful when American embassies
turned us down.”
Sometimes hotels didn’'t have
room for the youthful travelers,
but they would manage to care for
them, somehow. In crowded Hong
Kong, says Phylllis, a large hotel
closet was converted for them into
a sleeping arca. In France the
girls once took refuge in a church,
Says Phyllis:
“Two girls traveling together
get lots of sympathy. In one of the
Arab countries we were invited to
join a harem.” We also got a few
proposals of marriage — lots of
men want to mrarry an American
passport.”
Beverly parted from Phyllis in
Australia — married a Hungarian
she had met in Singapore. But
Phyllis didn’t meet anyone who
interested her, particularly.
The girls met important govern
ment heads throughout the world
—King Farouk, the Regent of Irag
in Baghdad, Prince Takamutso,
the brother of Hirohito; Nehru of
India. They were guests of the
Maharajah Barodi of New Delhi.
The money for the trip had been
earned by working after school as
waitresses, camp counselors and
baby sitters. Phyllis attended En
dicott Junior College, Beverly,
‘Mass., and Beverly attended lowa
State College.
~ They carried Army surplus
packs crammed with four crepe
dresses, two cotton dresses, shorts,
jeans, bathing suit, wool suit, hik
ing shoes, gloves, nylons, two suits
of long underwear, one tweed
coat and a raincoat. Most of the
clothing was suitable, except that
warm coats had to be borrowed
during the cold spells of Teheran
land Australia. Says Phyllis:
“We were so cold in Tehran we
wrapped sweaters around our legs
and wore pajamas around our
heads—one reason, perhaps, why
we were jailed for a day on sus
| picion of being 'spies. They also
‘eyed us with suspicion in India,
In Istanbul, after we had inquired
.about a visit to Russia, we were
followed by Russian spies.”
There were not many bad ex
periences connected with the ad
venture, according to Phyllis, who
noted that there is a great deal of
anti-American feeling because
American tourists “throw their
money around.” Young people
who have respect for American
dollars are appalled at tourist
habits and think of America as a
nation offering nothing but job
opportunities.
Phyllis was amazed that Gl's
gripe about the country of their
station, and that Americans
abroad make loud and unpleasant
criticisms of the countries they
visit.
After a hitch-hike to South
Africa, South America and Bali,
Phyllis hopes to live in Italy,
Austria or the Orient. She plans
to write a book, and possibly hike
to California before she goes
abroad again. Says she:
“One thing that is ncticeable
throughomt the world is the free
dom of American women. In other
countries women are looked down
on. No matter where we traveled,
other girls weré amazed that we
had so much freedom.”

Look At Work?

GETTING yourself a.job is one
thing, but knowing how to hold
it is quite another. In acldition to
the quality of your work, the way
you look and act ranks high on
your efficieney record.
Think first of personal appear

may be fine for casual at-home
moments, blfi they are definitely

a much better impression if you
choose clothes with conservative
lines.
Futhermore, your grooming
must be impeceable, That means
no hanging hems, slips showing,
wide-open seams, or stray threads.
If you wear stockings with
seams, keep them straight.
The same on your shoes may
seem like a bit of unimportant
grooming, but it is vital to your
over-all apperance.
Your make-up, hair, nails and
posture should also receive care
ful scrutiny. Don‘t allow pour=

The unwritten rules of office
etiquette should not be taken
lightly, either, Topping the list is
punctuality, v
It’s not as horrible as you might
think. Being on time is just-a mat
ter of getting into the habit, Try
to make and receive as few rer
sonal telephone calls as possible.
Your voice should always be
well-modluated and under control,
Keep your personal life out of the
office,
Everybody has problems, so
there is really no point in sharing
yours.
And, finally, show real interest
in your work and do more than is
asked of you. ¢
The average citizen wouldn't
think of breaking any !laws in our
criminal code yet the same peopie
will deliberately violate a traffic
law, Our Georgia State Patrol
points out that death and injury
are often the results of lawlessness
in traffic. Be a good citizen; obey
all laws. ; :
