12-IDAHO SUNDAY JOURNAL Sunday, November 13, 1960 Dear Abby: Abigail an Ur DEAR ABBY: Our pastor's wife died a few months ago and the whole town is running after him to help him replace her. He's in his early filics and seems interested in a pretty i school teacher who Is 33. She has never been married and would make him a good wife. The problem is she has an older sister who has never been married, either. She is 38 and gives' piano lessons.

The 38'er wants, this pastor very much, but I think the pastor prefers the 33'er. I'm sure the 33'er would grab the pastor fast if her sister weren't in the running. The town is divided, Who should get him? Some say the 38'cr, as it may be her last chance. We'd like your opinion, FRIENDS OF BOTH DEAR FRIENDS: The town should stay out of it. The pastor should court whom he wishes.

And (lie sisters should wait to see which (if either) he selects. DEAR ABBY: I went steady with Russell for three months. He's a wonderful guy but he was tagged for speeding twice and was cited for three oilier traffic violations in the past six weeks. He had his license taken away from him but he drives anyway. My Dad found out about it and made me break up with him.

1 don't think this was fair. Wouldn't it be punishment enough to forbid me to ride with him? I am 16 and Russ is 17. RUSS' I DEAR GIRL: I agree with your dad. How "wonderful" could a guy be who continually breaks the law, has his license revoked but drives anyway? 'He's bad news. Slay away from him.

DEAR ABBY: I am a size 12. My sister should be a size 12, but she is a site 14. She Is always "going on a diet tomorrow." Last January she admired a dress of mine, so I gave it to her hoping it would be an incentive to stick to her diet. She seemed delighted with the idea, accepted the dress and promised she'd stick to her diet this time. Well, she's had the dress for nine months, and instead of losing weight, she's gained.

The dreis has been hanging in her closet and I would like to wear it this winter. How can I get it back without hurting her feelings? SIZE 12 DEAR SIZE 12: Ask hfr if she would mind letting you wear the dress until she is able to wear it. CONFIDENTIAL TO "MARRIED TO A MAMMA'S Don't send him back to hli Mamma to "grow will only grow AWAY (rum you, Raise him with the children, If you want a personal reply from Abby, write lo her In care of this paper and enclose a stamped, self-addressed envelope. She answers ALL letters. Your Health By Dr.

Joseph G. Molner "Dear Molner: What can I eat lo get rid of calcium? X-rays showed bunches and bunches it growing between the neck bones, and it affects my left shoulder and arm a both Calcium is a much-maligned element. Much misunderstood. Saying you "want to get rid of calcium" is about like saying that you "want to get of blood" because you've cut your finger and it's bleeding. It's the wound, not the blood of which you wish to bo rid.

So it is with calcium. Calcium is necessary to your health and well-being. If, because of some injury or condition, calcium accumulates in a given spot, don't blame the elements. Blame whatever happened to cause the calcium to accumulate. Your case sounds like the sort of thing that can happen when there Is some degeneration of bones in the neck.

The "bunches" may turn out to be a thickening of the edges of the vertebrae. This sort of thing can develop (usually after 40) and by pinching various nerves branches, cause discomfort in the arms and hands. It is true, to be sure, that bones contain large amounts of calcium, but that doesn't mean that by getting rid of calcium you will gel rid of the particular portions of bones a arc causing trouble. Neither does it follow that by deliberately eating a diet deficient in calcium you can prevent such thickening of the bones. Not with safety, at any rate, for calcium is required for multiple purposes.

An important calcium need is in the healing of any sort of wound, whether nicked finger or a bruise. There is nothing anyone can cat to get rid of calcium, and there isn't any known diet that will control thickening of bony structures of the body. On the other hand, when thickening of bones in the neck causes distress, the-use. of neck traction (a head halter) usually provides relief by separating slightly the bones that are pressing too closely together. "Dear Dr.

Molner: How docs one quit smoking? I have read so many articles about cancer, and 1 am in great fear it. It makes me nervous not smuke as I am a nervous, high-strung person--T. Who isn't? The person who succeeds in quilling smoking is Ihe one who doesn't make excuses, but admits that he's about like everybody else, and decides that will power is the only first-class answer, For most of us, it's a mailer of quit or don't quit. I've known a few who had the great fortitude lo reduce to no more than two or thre smokes a day. Curiously, I never heard of any of them explain that it was "because I'm not high-strung and nervous." Com.e lo think of it, I never a a of these, few very-moderate smokers offer any explanation to anybody.

They just did it. Dear Dr, Molner: An) I an old- fashioned mother as my daughter, 19, calls me? I object to her washing her hair, takbg a bath (not a shower) or going swimming on Ihe first few days of her period, We were never allowed Your daughter is right. I'm not criticizing you for believing in the things you were taught, but we've learned a lot in the last couple of decades. Believe me, I've had to unlearn some of the things I took for granted as being true 20 years ago.

Superior Court Judge I.eRoy Jawson pronounced the sentence Thursday despite heated defense of hooper's actions by two prominent awyers. A stay was granted to ermit appeal. The judge' cited Cooper, president of the Los Angeles County Bar Association, when he persisted last week in objecting---despite he judge's warning--to Dawscn's remarks to a jury trying Finch and Carole Tregoff.

Dawson said le thought a murder had been committed and the prosecution witnesses were more believable han the defendants. Cooper accused the judge invading the rovlnce of tha jury. Joseph A.

Kennedy's Choice of Aides Holds Key to Success of Administration By JAMES MARLbV Associated Press News Analyst WASHINGTON (AP) President-elect Kennedy is off and running. But speed alone Is not enough. In these next 10 weeks his wisdom in preparing to take over the presidency will affect his whole administration.

Before he Is sworn in Jan. 20 he must pick the key and advisors who will help him. run the government, figure what it will cost to make good on campaign promises, and blueprint the plans he lays before Congress. Kennedy has named some immediate aides and chosen others to- come up with recommendations soon on setting up shop. Then he started Friday on a brief vacation.

He'll have no rest after his return. Since Kennedy and Vice President Richard M. Nixon were both optimists about their chances, both got busy weeks before the election on the problems of transition from President 'Eisenhower's administration to the new EACH NAMED a representative-Kennedy's was Clark Clifford, his personal attorney--to work with Laurin Henry and others at the Brookings Institution here in Washington where presidential transition was being studied. Henry has just finished a book, to be published Nov. 28, on the problems of transferring power from the outgoing president to the new one.

His studies cover the presidents back to Woodrow Wilson. He points out that in 1952, before Eisenhower was elected, some of his rich friends hired a management constant firm to study and make' suggestions on the task of recruiting executives for his new administration. So Eisenhower got off to 'a fast start when he won. Within five days after his vic- Henry Cabot Lodge--Nixon's running in the I960 campaign--to represent' him in dealing with the outgoing administration of President Truman. And, after a brief post-election vacation, he began naming Cabinet members by Nov.

20. KENNEDY'S was a little faster. Two days after his election this week he named Clifford, who had been Truman's special counsel and speechwriter in the 1940s, to represent him in dealing with the Eisenhower Kennedy also picked James M. Landis, former dean of the Harvard Law School and an important figure in President Roosevelt's administration, to pxamine the government's regulatory agencies with the idea of improving them. But Kennedy decided to wait a little longer than Eisenhower before naming his Cabinet.

While Eisenhower started on his by Nov. 20, Kennedy said he won't announce his choices until after Thanksgiving--Nov. 24. Clifford and Landis, by the jobs assigned them, will be powerful forces in shaping Kennedy's new administration. But that doesn't necessarily mean they will become part of it or want to.

Landis has had a lot of government service. Clifford, a brainy and successful Washington lawyer, feels his years as part of the Truman regime were plenty. Career Troubles Come Between Miller Couple NEW YORK (AP) What caused the breakup between Marilyn Monroe, and her intellectual playwright husband? A tug-of-war between their careers, say friends. But neither Marilyn nor her mate of four years, Arhur Miller, were talking for publication. "I'm sorry," the blonde star told newsmen Friday afler the separation was announced.

"But I have nothing to say about my personal -life." Miller ducked out of sight and was believed to be staying with friends. But he was depicted as "regretful, sad, realistic and friendly." Miss Monroe has been described variously as a woman of ferocious ambition, frighiencd, Insecure, witty, vague, ingenuous and the beauty who wants to be intelligent. "She's not a star," said another friend. "She is an institution and must constantly be in the center of excitement and activity." Miller, -whose writing requires that he be alone frequently and away from the stresses of show business, once said that living with Marilyn was like "living in a goldfish bowl." Once one of the most prolific of Broadway playwrights, he was last represented in New York by "A View From the Bridge," produced in 1955. He won a Pulitzer Prize for his "Death of a Salesman." Since his marriage, he has confined most of his writing to the films and in furthering Marilyn's career.

One of biographers said Miller had "to give up his entire lime to attend to her wants." One thing is certain, intimates say, no third party is involved. This apparently was In reference to a rumored romance last month between the. actress and. French actor Yves Montand. The pair met during the filming of a picture, "Let's Make Love," in which they co-starred.

It was the third marriage for Miss Monroe, 34, and the second i 11 years her senior. She formerly was married to James Dougherty, a Los Angeles policeman, and to Joe DiMaggio, the former baseball star. ONE OF THE president-elect's most pressing needs is picking a man--probably the one he'll name his director of the budget to work with Eisenhower's people on the outgoing administration's budget which goes to Congress in January, Understanding Ihe Eisenhower budget--the outgoing President's idea of what It will cost to run the government another year- is going to be of critical importance to Kennedy. He'll have his own ideas on Take Problems In Your Hands, Farmers Told BOISE (AP)-A national official of the Council of Cooperatives said Saturday farmers are going to have to take the farm problem in their own hands or turn it completely over lo the federal government in the next few- years, George B. Blair, president of the National Council of Farm Cooperatives from Lake Charles, said in an address lo the Idaho Cooperative Council the farmer is spending more money, devoting more time and effort and assuming a greater financial risk in getting only 39 cents of the consumer dollar.

"Isn't it a worthwhile effort to try to get a larger portion of the other 61 cents the housewife is paying for food," Blair said. The council president said farmers are about at the stage of decision whether agriculture in the United States is to be government- controlled and directed or whether the producers themselves arc to take on the burden of financing, operating and distribution- in an effort to achieve a reasonable financial return. Fires Sweep 121,000 Acres In Idaho PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) The Bureau of Land Management Saturday reported 1,195 fires swept across more than 335,900 acres of ELM lands last summer in Ihe worst in 30 years. Edward Woozley, BLM director, said rehabilitation work on the burned area, under a $1.425,000 special appropriation by Congress; is well along.

This Includes grass seeding and preparing sites for spring tree planting. Idaho was hardest hit as 388 fires burned 121,000 acres. Alaska had 195 that blackened 86,745 acres and Oregon had 188 fires that swept 79,640 acres. Other states, the number of fires, and acreage burned, were Arizona, 43 and Montana, 111 and Wyoming, 33 and 109 and Utah, 67 and Nevada, 93 and California, 26 and 1,866, and New Mexico, 42 and 75). vher'e and what should be spent and will have to work out a budget of his own to use with Con- Since his programs are dif- 'erent from the budgets won't be the same, Clifford, who has been working on his assignment for weeks, considers the four most important Cabinet jobs to be those of Ihe secretaries of state, defense, and attorney general.

Kennedy has given no indication of his choice for any of them. CLIFFORD is already emphasizing that top priority--besides the "abinet posts--must be given to 80 or 90 other jobs most closely involved in the transfer of power. Kennedy must lind men for all of soon. Eisenhower packed his first Cabinet with businessmen and got a good public reaction. They were and set the tone for Nis two administrations.

Kennedy's selections, judging by his campaign talk, may be more liberal. One of the most important, and still rather -nebulous, questions "acing Kennedy is how he will deal with Congress and through whom, Eisenhower used to call batches of congressional leaders to the iVhile House for meetings with limself and perhaps 10 to 15 nembers of his staff. This was a leavy, cumbersome way of getting Congress lo do what he wanted. Kennedy is apt to limit himself pretty much to meetings with a few top Democrats in the House and Senate, along with Vice Pres- dent Lyndon B. Johnson who will over the Senate.

JOHNSON, who was of precious lelp lo Kennedy in the campaign in keeping Southern Democrats in line with Kennedy, should be close to indispensable in helping Kennedy with Congress. Johnson, Democratic leader of Senate since 1954 and a mas- manipulator, is also the pro- lege of Sam Rayburn, speaker of Ihe House and the most powerful single force on that side of the Capitol. Kennedy's relations with Congress will be crucial in trying to make his campaign promises and programs a reality since most of 'hem have lo go through Congress where a majority of Democrats and Republicans are conservative. Some people who know Kennedy say they are convinced he made few, if any promises, to' anyone about what he'd do for them if he won. Still, a lot of people who backed Kennedy or worked for him in one way or another will be looking for rewards now that he is in a position to dish them out.

Just keeping them satisfied, ot off his back, will be a monumon. tal task. OK's 6.40x15 CHAIN TREAD SNO-TIRES MINI-BIKES Compltu tlm of AcciiMrlo and Hop-up Equipment.
