jv TEW YORK—Miss Barbara Rhoides, all

stretched luxuriously today, savoring her re-
turn to big town after nearly five month*
of making her first movies in Hollywood, and
aald thoughtfully that no, so far a* being tall
hadn't been a hindrance In her acting career.
"1 think it depends on whether you can DO
something, to go with the height,” She de-
clared. “Now, I can dance and I can act» I

maybe there were tall girls who might not
make it today — because there Jtiat aren't
many parts for girls to stand around and look beautiful . . . and
do nothing else."
Mias Rhoades is a stacked redhead who, in one admirer’s word},
is "jut a low whistle under 5 feet 11.” She must, hare something
on the ball, because producer Stan jvlargulies snapped her up
for a co-starring role with Robert Wagner and Mary Tyler

that, she went into a starring role with shaky Don Knotts in
“The Shakiest Gun in the West.” Universal has her under k

direct public opinion. Violent denunciation of men in
office should carry little weight with intelligent individ-
uals. Impugning the motives of those who atempt to do
something is often an admission the critic has no other
plan to offer.
To progress, in our complex society, where so much
doubt exists, action is usually better than no effort and
that test of effective opposition is whether it offers a
constructive substitute for what it opposes.

Youth And Alcohol
“Time and again, we are horrified by tragedies in-
volving young people, which are understandable only if
we explain It by impairment of judgment or temporary
mental confusion caused by alcohol or other nacotic
drugs entailing such effects.”
These were the words of Dr. Joseph Thiemann, who j whelming. Instead

WHAT HAS HAPPENED
Lavinia Hurst. attending the
opera in Venice, found her atten-
tions drawn to occupants of the box
next to her: a tall cfark-haired man,
a woman and a frail child. She was
conscious of counter - attention by
the occupants, after the child whis-
pered excitedly to the man "Look.
Papa* Isn’t she beautiful!” and
heard rim child aduressed as
F*ora." She could not resist eaves-
dropping on what followed, and she

Changes are absorbed into flex-1
for alcohol addicts in the country. Dr. Thiemann was
biterly critical of so-called social drinking, “a common
oattern among our seventeen and eighteen year-olds,
whether they are high school seniors or apprentices.”
Though these words were spoken some years ago
they are timely today, and concerning the use of drugs
like I.SD are more timely than ever.
Young people throughouts the centuries have dared
to try various sensational, shocking things in the spirit
of adventure. Today's television fare and our films seem
to encourage such adventures with alcohol and drugs.

intelligent counsel in the home and church. In general'

How heartless the sun was
for rising the next morning as if
nothing had changed. By com-
mon consent Cousin Marion and
Lavinia avoided each other's
company. Lavinia methodically
packed her modest belongings,
wondering what dreary friend
of Cqusln Marion’s she would
accompany home. Then, anxious
to get out of the hotel, as if the
golden sunshine and the gaiety
of life of the Piazza would dis-
miss her troubles, she tied the
ribbons of her straw hat under
her chin and set forth.
The day was completely her
own. At least she couid use it
by gazing with last poignant af-
fection on this lovely city.
She sincerely hoped she would
not encounter Flora or her la-
ther. That would only involve
awkward explanations, and an-
other farewell. If she hadn’t for-
gotten Daniel Meryon's face, he
was one person about whom
she was determined to have
good sense. Further acquaint-
ance with him could bring noth-
ing but disaster.
“Miss Hurst! Miss Hurst!”
She hadn’t walked a dozen j
yards from the hotel before
the imperious voice reached her
ears.
She looked back to see Flora
bping pushed by an elderly
woman in a servant's cap and
apron.
Miss Hurst, whal do you
think? Papa has said Edward
must be kept in his room this
morning as a punishment for
leaving me yesterday. Did you
get Into trouble, too, for steal-
ing the earrings?”
Lavlnta had to laugh. For no
reason at ail, this abominable
child had made her spirits rise.
“1 told you a dozen times i
didn’t steal them.”
"Well, Papa and 1 were not
so sure. We decided it would be
only what your detestable cou-
sin deserved."
“Miss Flora!” The elderly
maid was scandalized. She didn’t
look as If she approved of La-
vinia, either, staring at her sus-
piciously.
“It 8 all right. Eliza. 1 was
only joking. Miss Hurst, is your
cousin letting you free this
morning? If she is, would you
take me to feed the pigeens?
Edward isn't allowed out. and
poor Eliza isn't entirely recover-
ed from her sick stomach.”
"Miss Flora, there's a for-
ward minx! I beg (ter pardon
miss. She's got above herself
lately. As If this lady has time
to spare pushing you about.”
Lavinia had been about to
agree with Eliza, and walk on.
But just for a moment there
was something unbearably for-
lorn tn Flora s face. It was an
unguarded and unintended ex
preioiun. to> in a moment Flora
was saying with her usual acer-
bity, "Let Miss Hurst answer
for herself, Eliza. You have got
time, haven’t you. Miss Hurst ?”
“I daresay I couid spare you
an hour," she heard herself say-
ing carelessly, thinking of the
ghost beneath that small ag-
gressive face. They were alike,
she and Flora. They both con-
cealed ghosts.
“Well, I must say 1 would be
thankful,” Eliza said. I'm still
feeling peaky, to tell the truth.
And we must be well tor when
we begin traveling with your
great-aunt, musn’t we. Miss
Flora?"
"If she doesn't die first,”
Flora said heartlessly. “There
Was one funeral, Miss Hurst.
The remains were put on a gon-
dola, and It was draped with
black velvet, and the gondoliers
were dressed in black from head
to foot. And they glided away
over the blue sea and just seem-
ed to be swallowed up.
Mama and Papa and Great-
aunt Tameson followed in an-
other gondola, and they said the
grave was under cypress trees.
| And it was terribly not, and
there were crickets making an
awful racket all the time. But
1 believe the blue sea swallowed
her up," she said dreamily.
“That's the nicest thing to be-
lieve."
“Who?” asked Lavinia, with
the strangest stirring of een-
ne&s. “Who was it that died?”
"Oh, just one of Great-aunt
Taineson's old servant*. 1 don't
know what the fuss was about
Except I promise I’ll be just as
upset for you when you die.

“I know. You told me that

you aren't easy to love.”

“MY WHOLE I JFK, tor * coil pie of years, has been
and the theater,” Barbara said, “and so it was Ilka coming back
to heaven, after being on the coast so tong. I have an apartment
there, in Studio City, and I know I'll be spending most of my time
in California—but right now, I’m wallowing around in a fit of
lovely laziness and window-shopping right here. No one gets
New York out of his blood, does he?”
Miss Rhoades, whom someone called “a fantastic example of
volutuous womanhood” (can you picture a BIG Julie Newmar?),
Is a rarity in that she never really sweated It out too much, break-
ing into show biz. She got into TV-chorus dancing, did video
commercials, played a lot of summer stock and got into “Funny
Girl"—and just turned 21 the other week. “No, it wasn’t tde
hard,” she said. “I always had money to keep up my dancing
lessons, even by doing odd jobs, such as working industrial ehowa,
etc."

“ACTUALLY, SHE SAJB, these years S feet 11 Isn't all THAT
tall. "In ‘Don’t Just STAND There,' they filmed me at odd angles
to make me tower over Bob Wagner, with whom I played nearly
