How ever, Menjou advised Parka j first to complete his college education. Menjou’s advice was followed and Parka received his initial^ acting experience in the University of Texas dra matic society, The Curtain Club. This also Was the training ground for soda contemporary stars at Pat Hingte, Rip Ton and Jayne Mansfield.

Parka made his film | bow hi “Untamed Frontier”,! starring Shelley Winters. In | rapid succession, he did minor ! rotes in a member of pictures, including “Springfield Rifle’ and “Battle Cry”. Walt Disney, looting for an actor to portray Dwvy Crockett, saw Parka in a brief appear ance hi “Them”, but it was im pressive enough to convince the producer that he bad found his Crocket! Though it seemed an overnight success, Parker’S training as a supporting player had prepared him for this mu men! “Crockett” established him as one of Hollywood's top flight stars.

Like Daniel Boone, Parka is a firm believer in the value of land. He is active in property development in Santa Barbara and is the owner of a luxurious Submit mobile park, Rancho Santa Barbara. Producers sty Parker’s suc cess in portraying historical characters may be the result af his early interest in history. At age seven, on his grand parents’ ranch in Comanche County, Texas, he was already reading the only available books in the home, textbooks an American and Fnglivfc history. Throughout his school years, tales of men who built America and opened the West to settlers continued to taarinatn him When Fess Parker Boone, he may be surprised to find two other men decked oat in buskxfcins and coonxkin caps. Although it hasn’t been eon finned, Glenn Causey — who plays Daniel Boone in “Horn in the West” — and Ivey Hbore, who enacts Daniel Boone as the chief scoot of the Daniel Boone Wagon Train—may be on hand for picture sessions and to com parte long rifles in this land of the Ay. Ifartw may show up on the stage of the Daniel Boone Ampi theater for a singing sea son, and there might even be a parade.

HH!‘I Know The Weather BTE.H.SDCS v to ft true tut hailstones sometimes get as big as oranges? What makes big hailstones and why does hail fail during a thunderstorm? The answer to the first ques tion is that hail does some times get as large as an orange, or larger. Many of the so-called tall tales one hears about big hailstones are probably closer to the truth than the listener realizes. Hail is usually formed in thunderheada because these storm clouds contain very strong up-drafts and down drafts. Bain droplets begin to fall, are caught by an up-draft and suddenly carried to an alti tude where the temperature is below freezing. The rain drop lets Breeze into hail. They fall again, picking up moisture as Urey reenter the rain area, but are sent aloft by another up-draft, where toe moisture added store the first freeze is frozen to too center core. The process of fall and ascent is sometimes carried on several times, the hailstones growing larger with each trip upward. The stronger the updrafts in the thnnderhead, the larger the hail is likely to be, since strong winds are required to lift big hailstones. One can often break or Cot “layers” of ice from core to outer shell. . A Tax Hike? President Johnson has in dicated be will ask Congress for a tax increase if prices continue to rise. He hinted a possible hike of $5 billion “more or leas” affecting both individual and corporation tax The May Draft The Defense Department has issued a call for a draft of M, 000 men in May, the highest quota since January.
