The American public, if it wants to, can destroy the half billion dol lar a year mail-order business in obscenity which is having such dis astrous effects on teen-age young - stars. Postmaster Harold Webb, Morehead City, stated today. The jalpant aa to what is ob scene is actually in the hands at the citizens of Morehead City, Beaufort, Newport and other com munities throughout the nation. "We oan clean up the mails if enough citizens become aware of the seriousness of this problem and use their influence to do so," Post master Webb said. "We must do so to protect our homes, curb Juve nile delinquency, and prevent the poisoning of the minds of our chil dren." All the average eitlien need do if his home is invaded by unorder ed and unwanted mail, soliciting the sale of filthy, lewd and lascivi ous films, slides, pictures or other obscene and pornographic ma terial, u to complain to the post office department. This is done by mailing the objectionable material itself, and the envelope it came in, with a signed note of protest to the local postmaster. An investigation is then made by the postoffice department's in spection service. If their findings justify action -to ban the material from the mails, the department's general counsel then Issues such an order. If the sender of the obscene literature protests the department's ruling, the matter may then be taken to the nearuxt United States District Court for decision. Where the material in question is clearly pornographic, criminal action is usually taken by the local prosecuting authorities with the co operation of the postoffice depart ment. Convictions in such casea provide for both jail and dollar tines for the dealers in obscenity. U Attend Clinic Last Saturday Sevaaty-Uw attended the Crip pled Children* Clinic of Morehead City, sponsored by the Rotary Club and held Saturday in the Morehead City Hospital annex. Dr. L. D. Baker, Duke Hospital orthopedist who has been in charge of the clinic since it began July 1963, returned to the clinie after two month*' absence due to illness. Assisting Be. Baker were Dr. Frank Clippinger of Duke and Dr. J. R. Dinecn of Camp Lejeunc. Bert Titus from Duke Brace Shop assisted patients who needed braces, or adjustments in braces they were wearing. Mrs. Rita MLopqpie, physical ther apist Miss LIUir Fentress, nurs ing consultant, and H. A. Hendrix, ?ehabiUtation officer frem the Stat* Board of Health also assisted. The Junior Woaaa'i Club of Morehead City was represented by Mrs. Louis* Merrill, Mrs. Skinner Chalk and Mr*. W. M. Brady who helped with the records and regis tered the patients. Mr*. 1 ?*nfd Load* and Mrs. C. T. Spivey of the Carteret County Health Bepartment at** served. The neat clinic wilt he Saturday roming, June 18. Registration is between ?:*> and 10. Testimony given recently in Washington by Postmaster Ceaerai Arthur E. Summerfield indicate* that no longer do> dealers in af*i4 and dirty pictures serve oily ? few adults. Instead, thejr are s? liriting youngsteas, s?ndinf| the* unwanted and unentered mateTM indiscriminately and without co? science, into the homes of the n% tion. Postmaster Wehfc emphasized that the postoffi?e department if intensifying its efforts to clean up the mails. Its chief opposition in doing so comes from those who reap huge profits from unrestrict ed mailing*, and from some mis guided individuals who confuse lib erty with license, and in so doing, unwittingly give aid to these deal ers in obscenity. Congressman Kathryn E. Grana ham. chairman of the House pest office and civil sarvice subcommit tee on obscene literature, aptly summed up, this apparent confusion in the minds of some by stating "There are those who express con cern about their constitutional right of free speech and free press. I would like to point out in this connection that there are many sit uations where a certain freedom might apply to adults but will not apply to children. "For example, the selling of al coholic beverages to minors is pro hibited; children under a certain age are not permitted to drive an automobile; and they are not ad mitted to see certain movies if they are minors. However, experience clearly demonstrates that the wholesale circularization and un controlled dissemination of obscene material always brings a good deal of it into the hands of children and teen-age youth." Postmaster General Summer field, in discussing the scope of this social menace, has publicly stated "It is my deep conviction ? frequently expressed to individ ual members of this Congressional Committee, religious and educa tional leaders, newspaper editors, and citizens that one of the most serious moral and social problems in the United States is the multi million dollar mail order traffic in obscenity. "bi spite of the frustrations and the legal complications, and even the court decisions, I feel a respon sibility to the public to attempt to prevent the use of the mails for indecent material, and to seek in dictments and prosecutions for such offenses."

No less dynamic is the portrait ?f Lana'a sensitive lover, as played by Joha Gavin, a newcomer to i stardom whose virile good looks aad skillful performance exceed tha promise of his fine film effort in A Time to Love and a Time to Pie. Yet, for all the intrinsic skill of this pair, they cannot stand alone in the shower of praise for this deep-searching drama. They must share the acclaim with the equally magnificent artistry of 16-ycar-old Sandra Deo. a dream and a delight as Lana's daughter; Dan O'Ner lihy. as the playwright who woos and almost wins his glamorous ster; Susan Kohper, brilliant in her portrayal of the controversial fig- i ure of a young girl who revolts against the barriers of her race; Robert Alda in a welcome return ' to the screen as the breezy, fast thinking theatrical agent; Mahalia !

As an aside to the distaff view ers, the combined wardcobes of Lana Turner and Sandra Dec, ap proaching more than 40 separata outfits, andb representing the de signing efforts of Jean Louis (for Miss Turner) and Bill Thomas, are a fashion show ia themselves. Veteran filaaoer* will recall thet this is not the first triumph for Imitation of Life as a motion pic ture. It was one of 1994's biggest hits, with Claudetie Colbert, Louise Beavers, Fredi Washington and Warren Williams. In its modern ized form it retains the same pow erful dramatic challenges, and emerges as another exceptional triumph of adaptation for producer Ross Hunter and director Douglas Sirk. This is the same team that created a box office sensation with their version of Magnificent Ob session, a film which outdid its predecessor in popularity. Imitation of Life, penned for the screen by Eleanore Griffin, most certainly bids to surpass its 1934 predecessor, and should be a ma jor contender for every honor that Hollywood bestows on its finest 1959 films.
