TECHNICOLOR .TYRONE ORSON POWER WELLES Cecile Aubry Op, with Jack Hawkins Michael Rennie CINT«ftY-VOOC — Monday T uesday TALKS OF TRIP TO EUROPE The Business and Profession Women’s club had as their guest speaker Tuesday evening Miss Betty Baker, recently returned from a seven week’s trip through Europe. Miss Baker first spoke of the thrill of traveling on the great English liners—the “Queens’’ which made the trip in five days. The food on the Mary and the Elizabeth was excellent and abundant and there were nota bles aboard, including Don Mc Neil and family, Bud Abbott and Lou Costello, Anton Karas and others. After disembarking at Cher bourg Miss Baker’s party went by train to Paris which is about an hour’s journey. Miss Baker thought Paris lived up to its rep- utat/'cn as the world Is most beautiful city. The party visited the usual tourist spots and Miss Baker said she found especial pleasure in viewing the paint ings and art work in Paris’ fam ous museum. The vastness and beauty of the Palace of Versailles, built by Louis XIV, made a deep impress ion on the party. Miss Baker said that 20,000 people had been housed in the palace at one time. Tapestry covers most of the walls she said, and there are fine examples of hand carving covered with gold leaf through out the entire building. At Nice on the Riveria Miss Baker found a “vacation para dise’’ and thrilled over a swim in the blue Medeterranian. She en joyed the drive up to Monte Carlo and a view of Monacco’s hanging garden. In Italy Miss Baker .was a guest of the American embassy where she saw r a Persian Princess with whom she attended school at Converse. The next stop was the Eternal City and Miss Baker was much impressed with the ancient old city and all its historical land marks. She found that the time alloted to Rome was all to short. In London Bgker and three Of her party NftfmwSif a meeting of the British partlia- ment and saw many British statesmen they had read about back home, including Anthony Eden. In London Miss Baker had an appointment with William Trim ble, one of our top diplomats there. She found he was a friend of South Carolina’s own John Puerifoy, recently appoint ed Ambassador to Greece. She learned while at the Embassy that B. P. W. International was in conference in London but she was not able to attend. Asked about economic and political conditions in Europe Miss Baker said that the scars of war were still to be seen but that the people seemed to be busy with rebuilding their lands. About the only evidence she saw of Communism was Red posters in some parts of Italy, notably around Florence. Miss Baker found that Europeans were re luctant to talk about the Korean situation or the possibility of another European outbreak. The well tilled fields, now roll ing stock and new buildings rising from the debris of war pointed up the inheroent tough ness of the average European Miss Baker thought. Miss Baker wished for her lis teners the opportunity of some- aay making such a trip as siic so thoroughly enjoyed. She would always cherish her rich experiences in the old country, she said.

Negroes Help Refute Lies Of Communists WASHINGTON, Aug. 19—Vali ant American Negro -t-roops fight ing under the United Nations flag in Korea are helping to win more than strategic hilltops in the struggle with communism. In the opinion of Washington psychblogical warfare experts they are also helping to win the battle against Communist propa ganda: They are dramatic proof that the war to smash Red ag gression in Korea is not a “white man’s war.’’ This is an extremely . import ant point for the non-Communist alliance, and one which will shortly be bolstered by the ad« dition to U.N. field forces of native Asian troops. The Philip pines are sending 5,000 men and Thailand 4,000. To understand why these forc es are so important aside from the additional military strength they furnish, it is necessary to take a look at the aims and methods of Communist propa ganda as it is now being laid down in a steady barrage from Moscow, Peiping (Red China) and Pyongyang (Red Korea.)
