Actress Finds Sipping Champagne From Slipper Not Common Habit
By ROBERT MUSEL
United Press Staff Correspondent
LONDON — Ada Reeve got to thinking about the sed "gay nineties" and wondered why no one had ever shampagne out of her slipper, considering she was one of beauties of that era.
So she telephoned Rosie Boote, now the dowager Marcosess of Headfort and also a famous beauty before the turn of the century. Had her shoes ever served as a loving cup?
"Certainly not," snapped Rosie, whose ankle, slyly exposed, gave high blood pressure to the young men of 1895.
Cooper, who still looks too lovely to remember that far back, though she can remember.
"Never," said Gladys. "Champagne is death on suede."
And just to make sure, Ada contacted 84-year-old Elaline Terris, now Lady Hicks, one of the most beautiful women of the late Victorian era.
"It's some kind of a fable invented by later generations," said Elaine reassuringly. "Besides, it sounds shockingly unhygienic."
In her neat little flat on top of a converted mansion Miss Reeve, still singing and acting at 81, confessed that the conversations made her feel better.
"I'd hate to think there was anything I'd missed," she said.
Created Role
Ada, who starred in the first modern musical comedies and created a leading role in the original company of "Floradora," has been firmly taking the "gay" out of the nineties on radio and television and in her autobiography, "Take It For A Fact."
"I was one of the biggest stars of England in that period," she said. "And the toast of New York as well when I appeared at Koster and Bials music hall in 1892. So I can speak for men on both sides of America."
Predict Pills To Make Heroes Out of Soldiers

NEW YORK — In spite of giving comfort to unscientific pleo who are agast over their abilities in scientific "be control," Prof. B. F. Skim Harvard may have scared even more than they were.
"We are entering the age of chemical control of human life," he said, and then preface the development of pills which make fearless heroes of any all soldiers whether or not wish to be heroic.
"Our government would probably not hesitate to use a drug taken by servicemen before bat, would eliminate all signs fear, thus depriving the indictment of the protective reflexes a man has acquired through a process of evolution," he said a lecture at the New ork demy of Sciences.

Ada, who starred in the first modern musical comedies and created a leading role in the original company of "Floradora," has been firmly taking the "gay" out of the nineties on radio and television and in her autobiography, "Take It For A Fact."
"I was one of the biggest stars of England in that period," she said. "And the toast of New York as well when I appeared at Koster and Bials music hall in 1892. So I can speak for men on both sides of the Atlantic. They never wanted anything in those days but to be seen with a beautiful girl.
"The legends of mad parties and the champagne-out-of-a-slipper stories—they may have happened, but only rarely. For some reason those stories are what people today remember.
"The Johnnies, as we called them, used to take us out for our looks or for our company and no more. It was lovely. They would send around a diamond bracelet on something like that with a note saying 'Dear Ada, do come and have supper with me.'"
"I suppose they thought I'd be grateful for the gift and have to come. And we really ate well then—no dieting. Plovers eggs, pate de foie gras, caviar—ah those menus%"
Repeat Performance
Miss Reeve, who did a pirouette now and then to emphasize a point, does not live in the past. Recently she brought down the house with a song at the Players Theater—68 years after she brought down the same house with the same song as a child star.
But certainly there must have been a few wolves around in the nineties.
"I never met them," she insisted. "The men of my time got a bigger thrill by catching sight of an ankle than the man today who sees a girl with scarcely anything on."
One of her fondest memories is of New York in the prohibition era.
Reginald Denny, the film actor, introduced me to his bootlegger," she recalled. "For five dollars I got a gallon of grain alcohol, some juniper juice, glycerine and instructions for making gin. It almost took the enamel off the bathtub.
"Now that stuff would have been all right for drinking out of slippers. I can't think of a more powerful antiseptic."

Viet Namese Soldiers Tell About Use Of Amazons by Rebellious Hoa Haos
By LOUIS GUILBERT
SAIGON, Indochina (UP)—Soldiers of the Viet Namese National Army are returning from the jungles and rice fields of western Cochina China with word of a new and ferocious enemy: Woman warriors.
These modern Amazons wear black shirts and trousers and black scarves around their heads. They wield swords and daggers. They like to fight at close quarters.
Soldiers of the National Army encountered the women in full battle for the first time a few days ago. The existence of their corps however, has been known for years.
The woman are commanded by Lethi Gam, wife of Hoa Hao commander-in-chief Tran Van Soai, himself an ambitious warlord. Lethi Gam organized the corps in 1949 with a nucleus of 300 recruits
zons commando trained them in the use and swords as well as guns. They tasted first battles with the Communist Indochina war.
The women sowed palm munit ranks, rushing at the side of Hoa Hao striking with long canes.
The prisoners they dragged off to jungle huts worked over with knives ing left to die.
Their battlefield peace have won the respect Hao's male warriors, and zons are often seen as guard for Madame Gaertner with sword
Our government would probabtion hesitate to use a drug which
pen by servicemen before compromise would eliminate all signs of
drug use, thus depriving the individual
the protective reflexes which
has acquired through a long
process of evolution," he said in
lecture at the New ork Acady of Sciences.
Whether we like it or not, he
continued, "in the not-too-distant
here, the motivational and emomal conditions of normal daily
will probably be maintained
any desired state through the
of drugs."
But as long as there have been
there have been controls
for their behavior — for instance
control exercised by "the
way," or "cajolery, seduction,
statement, and the various forms
what photographers call 'influence.'"
Produce "Counter-Controls"
however, controls have always
produced "counter-controls" until
when the controls are becommore and more subtle, he said.
People interested in the concluded "freedom" of man—within
the limits in which it is possible
him to be free — would be
other advised to encourage the
quantific "analysis of controlling
actices" instead of befogging
or understanding of the need for
counter-control."
The described three methods of
behavior control:
1) "Emotional conditioning."
Example: "Advertising which
news a product being used by
otherwise associated with pretty
sales or admired public figures.
The controller is not likely to reagainst such control, and he
carry the resulting prejudices
attentedly to his grave."
2) "Motivational control." Example: "The deliberate design of
and literate (as in movies and
nics') to appeal to people with
strict tendencies is easily detectbut the subtle design of an
automobile so that fiding in it is
some measure a sexual experience is not so easily spotted.
Other practice may meet any
section from the people so concluded."
A Classical Pattern
1) "Positive reinforcement."
Example: "wages, bribes, and tips suga classical pattern." But
better ways of using reinforcement in shaping up new behavior
in maintaining the condition
interest or enthusiasm.
A Classical Pattern
"Positive reinforcement."
wages, bribes, and tips sugared in a classical pattern. But better ways of using reinforcement in shaping up new behavior in maintaining the condition of interest, or enthusiasm, have been recently discovered. Reinforcing effect of personal attention and affection is coming better understood.
It does not follow that men thus freed of all control, and precisely the other forms of control which we must now learn contain."

Idaho Miners Care for Two Orange Trees Found Growing Deep in Mine
By RUSSELL R. NIELSEN
United Press Staff Correspondent
KELLOGG, Idaho (UP) — Orange trees which sprouted from seeds dropped from a miner’s lunch pail have survived for six years the hazards of existence 3000 feet below the earth’s surface and now stretch their limbs toward the artificial sky which casts the only light into their bleak "orchard."
The two trees are growing on the 20 1-2 level at the Bunker Hill and Sullivan mine here. Mine officials hope they will continue to grow even longer than the famed lemon tree which lived 15 years in the dark recesses of the old mine.
The seed for the largest orange tree, a four foot leafy bush, was dropped prior to the labor strike of 1949. Seeds had been dropped in the mine many times before and no one thought another of the "lemon tree freaks" would sprout.
Follage Appeared
But, through the hard rock where the seeds had fallen, there soon appeared green foliage. Herman Heir, a shift boss, and James Allen, assistant foreman, found the sturdy little plant thrusting its way through the ground between track ties on the level. They transplanted it to a coffee can. It continued to grow and the plant was moved to a nail keg, then to a larger box.
Heier brings plant food in his lunch for the tree that has never seen the sunlight. Its sunshine is the light supplied by 10 bulbs of 100 watts each.
"I even carried angle worms down to put in the soil around the tree," Heier says. "They keep the earth from packing too tightly around the roots."
Its rocky tomb-like home.
One miner figured the tree died because it simply used up the life span of an underground existence.
"But it's nice to come down to the level every day and see evidence of life where you would never expect to find any, except for us human beings," he says.
"You might say there's some light, or hope, where none seems to be."
In time there may be other plants adorning the tunnels of the big mine. There is no plant food in rock, but warm and humid conditions inside the mine make it possible for a seed to sprout. If the plant is cared for, it can reach full growth even though it is destined never to see the sun, a company biologist says.

The prisoners they took were dragged off to jungle hideouts and worked over with knives before being left to die.
Their battlefield performances have won the respect of the Hoa Hao's male warriors, and the Amazons are often seen as an honor guard for Madame Gam. They entertain with sword dances at public receptions, and one witness has reported they dance so wildly that spectators have been wounded by their swords.
The Hoa Hao warriors—male and female—have created chaos in their territory, bombarding rice barges in rivers and blocking roads. Premier Diem hopes eventually to crush the sect but a long fight is foreseen.

The old lemon tree lived 15 years without so much as a single ray of sunlight.
