(International) Woman To Sail Around World Alone Movie Of Trip To Moon Being Made Ly PATRICIA CLARY I'nilcd Press Staff Correspondent HOLLYWOOD iL'f'i A movie product r is announcing the first 'scientific" picture about a trip to the moon. George Pal intends lo turn out a movie about inter-planetary rum iiitiiing that 11 knock your ey out and still won't offend the ex perls on astrophysics. And pleasing the scientists, n: anybody who knows any will tell sou. is a job for Hercules. I'ai's picture vvjll he called "Op oral Ion Moon". He says it'll slip ii lot of heavy scientific information to moviegoers without their evei suspecting it. "People who see this picture will gel a representative course ii phv-ii-: and astronomy.'' Pal said "Hut it can't be obvious. Nobod "es '" "'ovie's fo oe ''uod a cor net and instructed. on t he th'rwJd? -operation .Moon' won't go over if we make il eer ailla. Il s aU rlgnt to ,,. , ;lt,im,. )llt vou have to back youl. l.,.oi i.-s ,,,, .. .il, fa,.ta t. m,n, people these days know something about a-1 rnohv-ies anH tl,u r..-.m leiie of traveling thiough space." Pal, who used to make Pup pet, inns and now i- turning out hi' i-. i Picture, "Rupert," is basint his moon movie on the book "Km l;i t -hip Galileo," by Robert Meinlein, an ex ai my officer. He ia.s Heinlein is one of "the most thoroughlv authenticated scientific fictioio-ts" of the clay. "We're putting together a pic ture which we hope will instruct the public as well as entertain Ihcni." he said. "Hut al the same lime we art leaving: no loopholes thiough' which expert.- can attack our conceptions ni space travel." To te Maps Pal intend- lo n o graphs, niap and c hails, cleverly mixed ill with Ihe story, lo acquaint thi alergoer ' .with il,,. facts of astronomical life. "Thi v.ili be the first real test of the efficiency of the screen as a tearhing medium," he said. "The Army and Navy used movies to leach during the war. But Wc- are trying for the first time to com-' bine education with box-office en tertainment." The moon - travel movie will show, with what Pal hopes will be the blessing of scientists, that trips lo the moon, allhounh fantastically far distant, still are possible. "Army engineers in New Mexico already are throwing rockets more than 21)0 'miles in the air," he pointed out. That leaves only 221,263 miles to fio. It Seems Romans Knew About Gold Standard COLUMBUS, O. (UP) Roman metallurgists were able to produce highly purified gold coins some 2,000 years ago, according to re search by Ohio Slate University's chemical department. Prof. Karle R Caley said the Romans knew and applied an effi cient process over a period of sev eral centuries for refining the rnetal fronfwhich they struck their coins. Dr. Caley reported that a study of ancient coins revealed that Ro man rulers adhered strictly to the gold standard, and kept the g'old content of their coins above 95 per cent. "The uniformly very high gold content of the coins in the long series of Roman imperial coins from Augustus to Diocletian, ex tending over a period of some three centuries, is remarkable." he added. .

I UP) Mrs. Vera Hideout, 41, who lives on a boat at Watchhorn yacbt anchor age, hopes to be the first woman to sail alone around the world. Mrs. Betty Clemmer, her daugh ter, who lives on an adjacent boat, has no tuch ambition. '"li s all right for mother to go around the world, if (hat's what she wants to do," Mrs. Clemmer said. "I don't want to and she wouldn't let anyone go along any way, except her two dogs." Mrs. HicleoOT began her sea ioirig career at a night school in icaiby Wilmington, where she ituclied navigation. Her ocean experience was put to a rugged test two years ago when ihe shipped out on the yacht Islander with Capt. Harry Pid geon. The Islander floundered in i hurricane at Flspirilu Santo in he Hebrides while the crew was ashore. ' The experience didn't frighten ne," she said. "But it gave me a real thy respect for the sea." Mrs. Rideout's dream of an iround - the - world voyage was dampened in January, 1943, when rer 26-foot ketch Chelan collided ith actor Lee Tracy's yacht at .Santa Monica, Cal. "The Chelan was sunk," she ;aid, "and with it all my belong ings and almost my dream. The mat lay on the bottom for two Aeeks before it was refloated and towed here. "Since that time I have been ebuilding it piece by piece." The ketch, she figures, should make the trip in five years, and 'o finance it she plans to give il lustrated lectures during thp tour. Indian Weather Prophet Makes Wrong Guess Wt'PATKI NATIONAL MONU MENT, Ariz. (UP) A Navajo In lian who prided himself on his predictions got a tough break. Clyde Pashlacai, an Indian farmer living near here, predicted that the area's highest winds in 30 years would abate when the moon changed June 30. So his neighbors, relying on his forecast, wailed to plant their corn. But Pashlacai changed his mind and decided the time was "ipe for .in early planting. , ' The winds died down, the crffp matured and a swarm of grasshop pers moved through Pashlacai's crop, all but destroying it. 'Noxious weeds can cost a farmer from I've to 10 per cent of his po tential annual income. Jackson-Swain Counties Cancer Center at C. J.

STATE COLLEGE HINTS I I TO FARM HOMEMAKERS Letting picnickers make their nvn sandwiches savts work in the .itehen and is more fun for all, ay food specialists. Just take alon .he sandwich fillings and some plain bread-and-butter sandwiches r buttered foils, and keen mteat ir egg mixtures cold. Fresh vegetables can come to he picnic crisp and cool in covered jars, plastic bags, or wrappings of vaxed paper or aluminum foil urrounded with ice in a pail. Wrap he pail in newspapers for insula ion. Keep fruits and milk or fruit juice in the same icy pail to keep hem chilled. For safety, it's important to keep meat, poultry, and egg dishes oiping hot or thoroughly cold for picnics, the specialists point out. They need to be kept tither hot or cold from the kitehen to time of eating. If such foods cannot be kepi hot, it's safest to chill them thoroughly before packing and re heat or serve cold at the picnic. Picnics can be as well-balanced as home-served meals. Provide pro tein by including one of these on the menu eggs, cheese, poultry, tisl), or meat. And have a variety of fruits and vegetables. Slip a discarded pillow ease over the end of your ironing board when ironing articles that are nyt color-fast. This keeps regular iron ing board cover clean. Your life and the lives of those around you are too valuable to risk in a car made unsafe by neglect. Peace of mind, possibly even the difference between life and death, is greatly increased if your brakes are well ad justed. It's a cheap price to pay for it. ONE WAY TO DO IT MEMPHIS, Tenn.
