Strippers Observed For Education's Sake
Newark, N.J.—(U.P.)-Forty students from the New School for Social Research held class in a burlesque theater last night and learned, among other things, that a striptease dancer can earn enough by the time she is 21 to buy her own home.
The students, mate and female and aged from 20 to past 60, took in the famous Minsky's burlesque at the Adams theater here. It was all in the interest of education.
They watched raptly from balcony seams from the moment the curtains parted on eight gyrating chorus girls until Crystal ("more bounce to the ounce") Star blew her final kiss and scampered off to retrieve the clothes she has tossed into the wings.
Notebook in hand, the students from New York then clambered over the footlights to get a more intimate view of the bump and grind profession.
Miss Star and 12 other girls of generous natural endowment were sitting around catching their breath. Harold Minsky, the impressario himself, was on hand to answer questions, too.
A young man in a crew cut wanted to know exactly to what extent a young lady was permitted to disrobe upon the stage.
"There is no set rule." Mr. Minsky advised. "We just keep our show within the bounds of decency We have someone look at each new number to make sure it's all right."
Connie James, a brunette dancer
in the chorus, told a student she makes $87.50 a week for a sevenday week, four shows a day, plus rehearsals. "It's a job," she shrugged.
Miss Star, who gets top billing, draws $500 a week. She said she has been working the burlesque circuit for four years ("T'm only 21 now, honest") and has just bought her own home at Gardena, Calif., where she lives with her mother.
"Actually I've been on the stage since I was five. I used to sing in an act with my mother, but when I grew up I lost my voice," she said.
She developed other attributes, however, and Bill Smith, associate editor of Billboard magazine and an instructor at the New School, had her go through part of her act while he gave a running commentary.
Miss Star lifted a sheer net skirt over her head and let it fall to the floor. "Each stripper has an individual approach," Mr. Smith explained. "Something she hopes will bring people back especially to see her. When she gets such a following she makes more money."
Judy Nichols, college sophomore who suffered a fractured leg and pelvis on Nov. 10 when the car she was driving overturned in a ditch, will be the only student to remain in Watkins hospital during the Thanksgiving vacation. Her condition is reported to be improving.

Sheppard Print Testimony Looms
Cleveland—(U,P). The state opens the scientific phase of its wife-slaying case against Dr. Samuel H. Sheppard today with testimony from a fingerprint expert that the only clear print he found at the Sheppard home was that of their 7-year-old son.
There were smudges of prints found in various places, but none had the "uninterrupted flow of line" that is necessary for identification.
The witness was Detective Michael S. Grabowski, 40, a slender, fast-talking, six-year man in the fingerprint section of Cleveland's scientific identification bureau.
Mr. Grabowski was the first detective on the murder scene. He arrived at the Sheppard home between 8:15 and 8:30 a.m. last July 4, about half an hour after the coroner and half an hour before homicide Detective Robert Shottke, who first accused Dr. Sheppard of the crime.
The palm print was not identified as Chip's until many days later, by Jerome Poelking, an identification expert. He was expected to be a state witness.
The print identified as that of the Sheppard's son, Sam Jr., known as Chip, was of the boy's palm. It was found on the living room couch.
Marilyn Reese Sheppard, 31, was bludgeoned to death between 3 and 4 am, that day, according to the medical estimate of Coroner Samuel R. Gerber. The state contends Dr. Sheppard, 30, killed his wife after a quarrel about his affairs with other women. The defendant says an intruder, who knocked him out twice, committed the murder.
Mr. Grabowski, under Mr. Gerber's direction, also took pictures—13 altogether, including two of Mrs. Sheppard's beaten body.

Kansan Law Journal Begins Third Year of Publication
By LABRY WINTER
Starting its third year of publication, the Kansas Law Review has become a recognized authority in its field.
The Law Review is a non-profit corporation which serves primarily the practitioners of law in Kansas. However, the growing subscription list reaches every state and territory of the U.S.
The legal journal is written and published by students in the Green School of Law, and qualifications to write for this publication are high. Membership into the corporation is gained by law students with high grades and on completion of one article suitable for publication. At present there are about 30 writers.
Much ground work was necessary before the first issue of the Review, which is published quarterly during the school year, came out in October of 1352. Thus, a project, which Dean Moreau, of the School of Law, had desired for many years, finally took form and now is one of the most promising journals in its field. Faculty advisors are Prof. C. H. Oldfather and Prof. M. C. Slough, both of the School of Law.
This year's editor, Robert Frank Lytle, 3rd year Law, said, "We are very anxious to expand our facilities, and have definite plans for a new series of articles which will be of great use to lawyers in Kansas, especially any new lawyer who wishes to know the trends of different phases of law within the state." The Law Review is located presently in the basement of Green hall in the courtroom of the moot court.
The greater number of these articles comes from members of the faculty, but legal men, such as justice William O. Douglas, member of the U.S. Supreme Court, and Zecharial Chafee Jr., noted professor of law at Harvard University, have contributed to help make it an important journal in the field of law, and an aid to lawyers in Kansas.
While most of the Law Review is written by students, lead articles are often written by noted people in law from over the country.
Washington—(U.P.)-Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey (D.-Minn.) predicted today that Democratic leaders of the new Congress will push for legislation to stop "administration interference with the 'grass roots' operation of the farm program."
Humphrey Says Democrats Will End Farm Interference
The proposed legislation would cancel year-old regulations which administration officials say have promoted "efficiency" and "democracy" in local farm program operations. The legislation probably will run into opposition from Secretary of Agriculture Ezra T. Benson's Republican backers in Congress.
Sen. Humphrey told a reporter Democratic leaders have indicated they will give "some priority" to a bill he will introduce in January to cancel agriculture department regulations which;
2. Prohibit farmers serving on the 27,000 township, or community, committees from being elected to more than three successive terms. Mr. Benson's aides contend this rotation of office makes for greater democracy and brings "fresh blood" into the operation. Sen. Humphrey said it amounts "to Washington telling farmers who they can vote for."
Rep. Paul C. Jones (D-Mo.) has charged that in Missouri county
1. Require the 3,000 farmer-elected county committees which manage the farm program locally to restrict their work to policy-making and hire a manager to do the actual administrative work. This regulation has reduced the amount of supplemental federal pay committeemen can earn by electing to do all the work themselves, a practice common in Minnesota and other North Central states.
Alvin H. Schild, assistant professor of education, will participate in the 34th annual meeting of the National Council for the Social Studies to be held in Indianapolis Nov 25-27, at 10 a.m. Contact education the effectiveness of social education in the nation's schools.
Schild to Participate In Indianapolis Study
office managers must be "cleared" by the Republican state committee. And Mr. Humphrey contends the rotation plan was instituted on the theory that entrenched Democrats held many of the elected committee offices. But he said in Minnesota Republicans, too, have protested that they have lost a chance to seek re-election because of the regulation.
