Nobody Wants Women Drafted Is Conclusion of Civic Leaders
New York—(U.P.)—The slogan women these days but a check wants the girls drafted.
Recently Col. Mary A. Hallaren, director of the Women's Army Corps, appealed for 80,000 women in all branches of the service, and Anna Rosenberg, assistant secretary of defense, started draft rumors flying with her comment the defense program must have more womannower
Men and women checked for an opinion on the draft idea generally agreed, "Leave it to the girls to volunteer. A draft would disrupt too many homes."
Miss Ira Jarrell, superintendent of Atlanta schools, said "Draft should be for men only. Drafting women would create too many problems within the family and would mean that more nurses and day-care schools would be required for children."
"They shouldn't be drafted except in a case of all-out war," said George Phillips, director of civil defense for the Atlanta area. "But women can help in our defense program . especially in civil defense."
"Women should be drafted only if proper investigation shows a need," said W. L. Robison, Idaho secretary of labor. "There must be no indiscriminate action. It is the women who keep the homes together and in
"Uncle Sam Needs You" applies to of civic leaders indicated nobody
that alone they do a great service to their country."
Mrs. Paul Kohout, president of the Idaho congress of parents and teachers, said if there was an "emergency," a draft would be wise only if "legal provision is made that families will not be disrupted."
"I think enough women will go into service without use of a draft," he said.
Some members of Mrs. Rosenberg's defense advisory committee on women have said that a registration would point up the need for more volunteers.
A "maybe" to the registration but a "no" to the draft came from Dr. Roland De Marco, president of Finch College. He said the government would be "walking on dangerous ground when it starts moving women around."
R. Crosby Kemper, banker and civic leader in Kansas City, opposed a draft of women at any time.
A blonde secretary in a New York office thought, "Let us face up to the equality we're supposed to have. They draft men when they need them . . . why should women get the special treatment."
Screen Actor Discovers Appeal Increases With Weight Loss
Hollywood — (U,P) — Actor Raymond Burr, an ex-fat man who sweated off 130 pounds in three months, has discovered "life begins at 190."
Pounds, that is. Burr's been having the time of his life ever since he weeled off the blubber.
"It wasn't easy," the 30-year-old actor growled. "I lived on 750 calories a day. And that, in case you didn't know it, is a starvation diet.
"But I went into hibernation for three months. I didn't see anybody except my doctor. He dropped by three times a week."
Probably to make sure Burr still was alive. This starving it off was his own idea. His medico was against it.
But Burr said it's been worth it.
"I weighed 330 pounds when I started," he said. "And leave us face—girls just don't go around batting their eyelashes at fat men.
I got down to 180. I've gained 10 back. But I'm over six feet so that's all right.
I'd hate to tell you the difference it made in my life life. Not that I ever was the repulsive type, exactly.
Even as a fat man I had my own technique."
Burr said he was 29 when he started "operation slice."
"I got shocked into it," he added. "I saw myself in 'A Place in the Sun—I was the district attorney—and I looked like an old man.
"It was a big jolt. I wasn't even 30 yet! I got to thinking. Casting directors were taking my weight too literally . . . I was the 'heavy' in picture after picture."
It paid well, Burr says. But it was hard on his ego. He got tired of having people stare at him as he walked down the street.
"I made 'His Kind of Woman' with my new shape," he said. "And, believe it or not, I'm getting mash notes from fans now. It's kind of nice, for a change."
Warner pictures got a peek at his manly chassis and grabbed him up on a long-term deal. Only this time it's different. Burr gets to make love to the ladies from here on in.
The housewives wouldn't have it
any other way. Neither would Burr.

"Right now I'm a sick sieve," the brown-eyed cutie said. "In the past three weeks I've had two typhus shots... three for typhoid... two for cholera... three for tetanus... one for flu... and a vaccination for small pox. I can't lift either one of my arms. In fact, I don't feel so good all over."
If so, this'll be the first time a blonde sieve ever wiggled into a strapless black gown and trotted out on a battlefield. Monica's gonna have the soldiers wishing Hollywood would send 'em more sieves like this one.
'I Feel Like A Sieve' Says Monica Lewis
Hollywood — (U,P) — Be-dimpled Monica Lewis took off to sing for the GI's in Korea today—punctured up to her shoulders with every kind of shot in the book except "anti-wolf serum."
Monica is making the trip with Danny Kaye and they'll spend a month in Korea and livening up the hospital wards in Tokyo.
"And that's what they tell me I'll need most," she said, grinning. "But I couldn't look at one more needle, so help me. I've had it. I feel like a sieve."
"I know I'm taking a calculated risk," she said. "I may get shot at.. I'll have to risk flying in helicopters in all kinds of weather.. I'll be sleeping in tents. At best, it's gonna be murder."
"But I'm going just the same. It'll give me a chance to get acquainted with some of my boys."
She's taking along a strapless black gown she described as "very Frenchy . completely mad."
"They make me itch," she said. "I'll wear nylon undies and try to keep warm some other way."
Monica's been warned it'll soon be winter in Korea now but she's not taking any woolies.
"That's my inside dress," she explained. "Then I've got a bright red skirt. Felt, to keep me warm. And I'm taking along two sweaters. . one pink and one white and both kind of tight. To keep the draughts out, you see."
