On Georgia Prisons

ATLANTA, Feb, 25 — (AP) —
Georgia abolished chain gangs and

Movie Mogul Spends Plenty
To Have Custom-Made TV Set
BY ERSKINE JOHNSON
NEA Staff Correspondent
HOLLYWOQOD. — ( NEA ) —
LAUGHTIME, IN U. S. A.
A movie producer who has con
sistently attacked television re
cently invited some close friends
{0 his mansion for a peep at his
tirst custom-made video set.
Surprised at his change of heart,
the curious pals showed up and
were ushered into the kitchen.
“Cost nye a grand to have it
done this way,” snickered the pro
ducer fiendishly, “but I _believe
that & medium like television de
serves @ proper setting.” ;
His guests are still goggle-eyed
at what they saw. .
The producer showed them a
shining new garbage can into
which & complete television set
with @ 20-inch screen had been
built.
Sign outside a Hollywood pet
shop window filled with playful
dachushund puppies:
“Get A Long Little Doggie!”
John Lucas, the screenwriter,
likes the story of the film pro
ducer who moved his “daughter
from one private school to an
other, because of the stern discip
line in the first.
The new studies were easy, the
teachers all graduates of psychol
ogy and extremely kind to the
pupil, but she was unhappy and
begged her father to be returned
to the first school.
“It's true, 1 didn’t like being
punished,” she said, “but, honest,
Pop, I can’t stand any more of be
ing understood.”
Every Minute Counts
Robert Q. Lewis took a blonde
doll to see “Quo Vadis,” then
hailed a taxi to reach a night club
a block away.
“Why couldn’t we walk?” asked
the beauty. “You're a young man.”
“But I am not as young as I was
when I went to see that picture,”
groaned Lewis.
From the script of the new Ab
boti-Costello comedy, “Lost in
Alaska.”
Abbott: *“This is the fastest dog
teamr in the world.”
Costello: “Why?”
Abbott: “It’s the way I've ar
ranged them, This dog is Prince,

The Philippines official is mak
ing a year’s study of state prison
systems for the Philippine Islands
Bur.eau of Prisons and the Calif
ornia Bureau of Corrections. He
mspected prison system of Calif
ornia, Texas, Oklahoma and Miss
issippi before coming to Georgia.
From here, he will go to New
Jersey and New York and then
work his way back to California
through the mid-western states.
Except for California, the visit
or was sparing in his comment on
other states. Texas and Oklahoma,
he reported, have launched prison
improvement programs and are
making progress. He said the Mis
sissippi prison officials inherited
a system and are doing the best
they can with it.
Wealthy California
Paje was highly impressed by
the California prison system and
its advanced program of rehabili
tation. But he conceded “Calif
ornia is a wealthy state.”
- Paje spoke very favorably of the
education program in California
prisons, which is also used in his
own country. He thinks Georgia
‘should adopt something of the
‘kind, at least for illiterate conviets,
but preferably including training
[in some trade.
And to keep pace with other
prison improvements, he suggested
Georgia might abolish the pitch
dark isolation cells and disntinc
tive uniforms, and give prisoners
some small payment for their
work.
“You have an excellent prison
system,” said Paje, “with just a
few improvements, you could have
a most advanced system.”
about our new band. They play so
loud they drive me nuts. Some
body orders veal and we go crazy
trying to prepare an eel.”
Lyle Bettger, who plays the
killer in Cecil B. DeMille’s “The
Greatest Show on Earth,” took his
10-year-old son, Frank, to see his
new film, “The First Legion.” Lyle
asked Frank how he liked it.
“Not as good as the DeMille
movie, Dad,” said Frank. “You
didn’t kill anyone.”
The Hollywood floods and
warnings about contaminated wa
ter have revived the story about
a famous movie executive who
began his career, shortly after ar
riving in this country, as a theater
exhibitor.
One day he received an official
note from a city official instruct
ing him to close his water foun
tain in the theater lobby.
A few minutes later, the exhibi
tor put up this sign:
“Through the ccoperation of the
City Health Department, this wat
ter unfit to drink.”
That’s It, Sister
The Johnny Mack Browns just
had one of those slick, stream
lined kitchen unit system install
ed in their home.
“One button,” Johnny is grin
ning, “controls everything except
the children.”
Actor John Hubbard, back in
Hollywood for a role in “The
Texas Man,” tells it.
During the short-lived London
run of “Mary Had a Little,” in
which he starred, Hubbard took a
stroll through crowded Petticoat
Lane. When he returned to his
hotel, he found that his wallet,
containing 20 pounds in English
currency and 80 American dollars,
had been lifted.
A few nights later, Hubbard re
ceived this letter:
“Thanks for the money to buy
seats to your play. Enjoyed your
performance. Please come back to
Petticoat Lane loaded very soon.
Pickings are slim.”
The letter was signed:
“The bloke what picked your
wocket.”

HOLLYWOOD —(NEA)—Shel

tall young man approached her
table and said:
“How do you do. 'm Franklin
D. Roosevelt.”
“How do you do,” replied Shel
ley. “I'm Mrs. Abraham Linclon.”
.Defending herself later, Shelley
flipped:
“How was I supposed' to know
there were two of them?”
Impulsive, wifty Shelley, Hol
lywood’s Sexiest Siren, confesses
to this story about her but insists
now that she was only kidding.
But there’s no kidding about it
when Shelley says:
“T talk too much. I get car
ried away with the sound of my
own mouth.”
When Shelley Winters opens
her mouth to say something—and
it’s hardly ever shut— press
agents quake, women sometimes
faint, strong men blanch and the
editors of “Quotable Quotes” de
partments reach for their pencils.

Collecting shelleyisms is as
popular as canasta in Hollywood.

wore out typewriter exclamation

Some typical Shelleyisms:
“The only trouble with being
virtuous in Hollywood is that you

MAKE THIS HOME RECIPE
TO TAKE OFF UGLY FAT
It's simple. It's amazing, how
quickly one may lese pounds of
bulky, unsightly fat right in your
own home, Make this recipe your
self, It's easy—no trouble at all
and costs llttle, It con.alns noth
ing harmful. Just go to your drug
gist and ask for four ounces of
liguid ANARO Concentrate. Pour
this into a pint bottle and add
enough grapeiruit juice to fill the
bottle. Then take two tablespoons
ful twleo a doy. That's all there
is to it
Il the very first bottle doesn’t
show the simple, easy way to lose
to watch with a calorie chart:
“Sucecess has gone to my figure.”
At a party one night there was
a heated discussion over the ex
istence of a free press in this
country, Shelley finally broke it
up with:
“There must be a free press,
They certanily are free with me.”
About a sexy photograph of
hersell:
“I'm going to be in every men's
room in the country.”
After Farley Granger gave her
a diamond ring:
“Farley gave it to me because
I was a good girl and didn’t slug
anybody while making my last
picture.”
And there was the time Shelley
was being interviewed on an ad
lib ridio program in New York.
A Universal-International pub
licity man who was with her still
shudders about that. Shelley was
asked to name five men she would
invite to dinner if given the op
portunity,
® & W
She dashed off the names of
Einstein, Eisenhower, Churchill,
Toscanini and Laurence Olivier.
Then, while the publicity man
turned pale, she was asked why
she would invite these men to
dirwer.
ell, welled Shelley, she could
discuss science with Einstein, war
with Eisenhower, statesmanship
with Churchill —the publicily
man was beaming — and music
with Tocanini.
“But what about Laurence
Olivier — what would you discuss
with him?” she was asked.
Shelley let it fly and the pub
licity man's bean turned to
horror.
“Oh,” said Shelley, “I wouldn't
dsicuss anything with Olivier. I'd
just ask him to come back after
theothers had left.” 2
Since her superb acting per
formance in “Place in the Sun.”
there has been a new place for
Shelley in Hollywood.
“I must be a success,” she says.
“A producer I know listens now
when I talk to him. He usually
just stood there, counting his
money.

the Communists could muster for
all-out war.
Since Russia’'s birth and death
rates are far higher than those of
any advanced Western nation, the
Soviet has a much larger popula
tion of babies and children, many
of whom will never grow to pro
ductive ages. These children are a
military and industrial liability,
not an asset. Further, Russia’s
ratio of males to famales is ab
normally low. According to esti
mates, Russian males in the age
group 15 to 44 number about 37
million, as against 33 million in
the United States.

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla,
Feb, 25—(AP)—Five days before
the regular opening of spring
training the Philadelphia Athle
tics have 23 players in camp.
The 23rd to arrive was Tom

with Lincoln, Neb., last year. Ten
players were on hand last
Wednesday when batterymen
were due to report.

Portugal has an area of about
35,466 square miles, slightly small
er than Indiana.
Although Portuguese law re
quires the people to wear shoes,
many sometimes go barefoot in
that country.
It is estimated that the average
U. 8. farmer produces more to
day in one hour of work than the
farmer of 50 years ago produced in
two.

duction, by comparison with West
ern standards, means that preport
inoally more farmers are m
to grow feod and more
workers to make the goods of war,
In Communist China, and im lhuo
sia's satellites elsewhere, one-half
to three-quarters of all workers
are required to raise food; in the
democracies only a sixth to a third
need be so employed. Of China’s
total labor force, estimated at 200
million, three-fourths must pro
duce the nation’s food leaving 50
million to turn out all consumer
goods and war munitions, and to
fight. i
The decisive factor in h;qma
tional rivalries. Miss ayer
states, is not gross population nor
even manpower in the age Hmits
of maximum vigor. It is a nation's
ability to free men from civilian
Froduction without lowering the
iving standard below the level of
survival. Russia and her allies are
today scraping the bottom of the
manpower pool for their armod
forces. The democracies have an
enormous reserve that could be
drawn from civilian production if
needed.
