Today's Grandmas Leave Lavender
And Lace And Turn Toward Glamor
By HAL BOYLE
NEW YORK, (AP) — This is
the heyday of grandma,
Grandma no longer worries
about acting her age. Grandma is
the Tfirit of the modern age, We
are living in the age of the jet
propelled grandma.
There was a time when women
hated the thought of becoming a
grandmother, and maybe most of
them still do. Being a grandmother
then meant putting on a little lace
cap and sitting by the fire with
a cat in her lap, while life passed
by. Dear old granny-all she had
left was her memories of more
active days.
Best Years
But today? A girl just starts
hitting her stride by the time she’s
a grandma. Some of the best years
of her life are still ahead of her
after she finishes untying her
apron strings.
Look at the world around you.
You'll find grandmas taking lead
ing roles in practically every field
except flagpole-sitting, and the
only reason they don’t go in for
#pgpole-sitting is that it is just
too dog gone sedentary for them.
Who is the best known living
American artist? Most people
would sayv Granma Moses, whose
brush is still as busy as ever,
@Glamor is supposed to be the
property of the young-in-years,
but three Hollywood grandmas—
Joan Bennett, Marlene Dietrich
and Gloria Swanson-have a
seemingly timeless beauty that is
the envy of many a more youthful
actress.
Glamor Grandma -
One of the newest television
starg is a grandma-Mrs. Arthur
Murray. And in the bright arena
of the theater who shines more
luminously than dear old Granny
Gertrude Lawrence? She twinkles
forever young, forever fair, and
will keep on, we trust, until she
is at least a great great grand
mother.
Grandma’s place used to be in
the home. Not any more. Some
grandmas hold top industrial and
political posts. They direct every
thing from racing stables to base
ball elubs. And they run for Con

Literary Grandma
The literary world has known
few more consistently successful
authors than grandma Mary Rob
erts Rinehart, who has written so
many best sellers it would take a
catalogue to list them all,
The busiest grandmother of all,
of course, is Mrs. Franklin D.
Roosevelt, who year after year in
polls taken among women is voted
by them as one cf the outstanding
representatives of the sex. Perhaps
no woman of her time has been
more widely recognized in so many
fields. Her only concession to her
years has been the purchase of a
new hearing aid.

il Well Royalty
!In Big Contest
& Never before, in all contest his
| tory, has there been a top prize
like this! When most folks think
ot Texas they think of oil— and
wish they could one day own an
oil well!
Well, someone (who dosen't
Iknow it today) will own royalty
linterests in not one — but 44
Texas Qil Wells—come September
1, and all because he (or she) en
tered the Dr. Pepper June-July
Jingle Contest.
In one of the most exciting,
‘ most unusual contests ever promot
ed, the Dr. Pepper Company will
| offer as top prize in the forth
coming contest, an income from
44 wells in Rusk County, Texas,
which, according to geologists’ es
timate, will return royalty earn
ings of more than $20,000 to the
winner (this figure based on the
“allowable” and price of crude as
of March 28, 1952). Basis for win
ning prizes in the contest (and
| there are 899 other prizes) will be
the completion of the last line of
4a two line jingle. The Contest
] starts June 1 and runs until mid
night July 31, 1952, Judging is all
done by Lloyd Herrold Company,
independuent contest judges, Chic
ago.
A further highlight of the con
test is the fact that Dr. Pepper
Company will pay the Federal
Income tax on 1952 royalty earn
ings on the firs* prize—provided
the winner has complied with cer
tain “extra” conditions of the con
test.
Soft drink dealers across the
country are distributing the rules
and entry blank folders. The con
test is one of the simplest and eas
iest to enter., A record number is
expected.

British Jeep Is
By NEA Foreign Service
BIRMINGHAM, England(NEA)
—The “land rover”— a variant of
the American jeep which can al
most climb a tree—is carrying a
yeomonlike load in helping to sup-~
port the British economy and de
fense programs.
Slightly heavier than a conven
tional jeep, but otherwise very
similar, the land rover was first
produced in small quantities in
1948 and was aimed to meet the
needs of the farmer.
It did the job admirably, be
coming an all-purpose, go-any
where vehicle that could do al
most anything from pulling a
tractor to running a threshing
machine.
Its rear and center power take
offs made it a mobile power unit,
suitable for driving air compres-~

countless other machines. It has
even been used to power electric
milking mac).lin?. < .
Today however, the land rover
serves many other purposes be
sides farming. It is an important
~art of Britain’s export drive and
‘efense program.
Some 400 land rovers a week
are now coming off the assembly
line. About 80 per cent are going
overseas—at SI4OO each.
Those which don’t go aboard are
being snapped up by the Army
and Air Force, which means that
the average Briton who wants to
buy one for his personal use now
faces a two-zeai w‘aiting period.
About 15 per cent of the ma
chinery making land rovers is
American made, acquired through
regular commercial channels or
supplied under the Mutual Se
curity Program.
Much of the export trade is
with Belgium, which uses land
rovers in its military program.
