We had seen her on television as 'Eloise' so were very much interested. You mentioned that she was to be on the first Groucho Marx show of tile fall season, but we watched and she was not on. "I had even allowed my daughter to stay up late to see this show, so now I wonder you can enlighten us? Thank (Mrs.) J.B.S., South Pasadena." DEAR MRS. So sorry, I had passed on the information as I had received it. At this time, the particular show in question may already have been on (remember that these columns are written at least a week before they come out in print) Dedication Ceremonies Scheduled Dedication ceremonies for a Pomona College women's residence hall to he named in honor of the late Anna May Wig of San Marino will he held tomorrow at 10 a.m.

Members of her family will be special guests on campus. Mr. Wig, 005 Avondale who is president of the college board of trustees and his three daughters-Mmes. James Elgin of Alta- lena, J. Stanley Johnson of Pasadena and Robert Beaton Smith of Pacific Palisades will be among a crowd of several hundred expected to attend.

The dedication, to he held on a terrace a i i the new residence hall, will open a day-long program marking Founders Day. Two nationally-known authorities will lake part in a conference on the education of women. They are Mildred McAfee Horton, past president of Welleslcy College, who will talk at 11 a.m. in Bridges Auditorium on "The Company of Educated Nevitt Sanford, Cal psychol- professor and Vassar College director of research on women's education. --or we may just have to keep on watching.

Small Evelyn, her attractive, blonde mother and I were luncheon guests of Elizabeth Turner the other day. With Evelyn, too, came her friend, 13 year old Mclirula Marx--whom most of us have seen appear a few limes with her noted father, Groucho. Mot one of them knew on what date the T.V show, with Evelyn matching wits with be on. It was disappointing to have turn down an invitation to a private showing of one of Evelyn's pictures at Twentieth Century Fox Studio-n us loo to Hawaiian Tour, and too much to do. I have never seen this nine-year-old in action, but her "rave notices" by outstanding critics in this country and England have me curious.

Perhaps Evelyn's Pasadena Fan Club will keep the column informed of developments. Just so we don't get into a fan club controversy such as we had running awhile back over Elvis Presley! Can't think, however, what could he controversial about a small blonde nine year old child whom all the critics seem to agree about. A I I I A My husband and I are inveterate globe trotters, and we have therefore especially enjoyed your travel a i on Mexico and Hawaii (we look forward to a new series from Hawaii this fall). We have looked up the hooks on Hawaii you recommended by Kathleen Mellen, but have lost or misplaced the article where you wrote of an author you 'met in Taxco, Mexico. We would like to procure her books before taking our next trip into Mexico.

Can you help us? Many thanks-(Mrs.) L.L.W., San Marino." DEAR MRS. L.L.W.: The author mentioned is Bcrnice Goodspeed, Taxco, Mexico. I believe that is all the address you would need since Bernicc has lived in that quaint and charming town for 20 years. I have been unable 1o find her books in local shops or libraries, and an order left with her for one of (hem has not been Perhaps you would have better luck. Garden Club Project in 7th Year Many persons who visit the San' Marino Public Library, from October to June remark about the charm of the arrangements of fresh flowers, holiday displays and other decorative arrangements which greet them at the door and throughout the rooms.

For the past 7 years, this has been a project, of the San Marino Garden Club, started by Mrs. Joseph W. Dobson during her term as president in 1952. Members are assigned for- each week and bring flowers in season from their own gardens. They also decorate Christmas trees foe the library in December.

Mrs. T. Heilschmidt is library flower arrangements chairman. This month committee i Mmes. Austin Strong, Carroll J.

Hardley Ford and Robert Grube at a coffee party in the Ford home. The couple was stationed in Alaska for the past 3 years but Capt. Stephenson has just been assigned to ROTC staff duty at Cal- tccli. Home Completed Mr.

Home Dangers Stressed By GAY I'AULBY Statistically, the phrase "in the safety of your own home" should be changed to the "danger of your own home." National Safety Council records show that four million accidents occur in the home eacli year; more than anywhere else including the highway, where the accident rate is 1,350,000. Aware of hazards around the house and of the need for doing something about them, 400 mayors and '10 governors a proclaimed an "emergencies don't wait week," beginning today. Sponsors of the event are a major drug firm, whose medical director, Dr.

John Henderson, cited these ways to "accident-proof" the house. If there are small children: --Build a wall (beaver- hoard will do the trick) around tlie home workshop and install a gate that locks. This will keep curious fingers away from power tools and others. --Anchor screens firmly to the windows with hardware which children cati'l unfasten. protective'caps on electric to prevent youngsters from inserting bits of metal into them, courting electrocution.

Build a generous sized toy chest and train the children to use it, keeping toys off stairs or busy passageways. --Enlarge the base of your child's high chair so he can't over-turn by rocking it. prevent falls: --Install handrails on all stairways. --Lay rubber pads under scatter rugs. --Paint the top and bottom cellar steps white" for easy seeing.

--Put gi-abrails next to the bathtub. To prevent fire: Cover the walls' and ceiling surrounding the nace with a i material. r--Hang a i extinguisher i kitchen. Grease fires can turn into seripus blazes. --Have plenty of hearth room around the fireplace --at least a 20-inch extension into the room and 10 inches or either side.

--Install a simple iire alarm system. --Use only metal wastebaskets. To preeent accidents from miscellaneous causes: --Store a kitchen knives in containers apart from other cooking tools. --Build and slock medicine cabinets in the kitchen and home workshop, two areas where accidents are irequent. Secret Clubs OfteiiPath to Trouble By Richmond Harbour, rh.D.

Guidance Counselor "Why shouldn't my. girl join a secret club?" a mother writes. "She's a sophomore in high school. The girls in the club have invited her. to sev eral parties.

I know most of the members. They come from nice homes. The girls have either a dance or a parly each month. Without a'club my girl won't have much social life. The girl's seem to get along well without adults.

Yet you advise against clubs. Why?" The answer is that I've seen many girls get into trouble through secret, unsupervised teenage clubs. Most of the groups start out O.K. The members come from nice homes. They conduct themselves properly.

Then some girls join who aren't so good. They invite the wrong sort of boys. Parties into orgies. I'm not exaggerating. A good many parents have become grandparents sooner than they expected because of secret teenage clubs.

Try not to let your girl join. If you can't slop her, insist on responsible, adult leadership. Call the parents of other girls. They'll see the point. They'll help you.

There should be a grownup sponsor present at all meetings. Every dance and a should be well chaperoned. Your girl can have an active social life without a secret club. Is she interested in sports? Does she care about being in plays. Check with the teachers.

Is she interested in character-building activities of the YWCA? Check on the Y-Tcens program. Do you. have church clubs, such as the Newman Clubs, Westminster Clubs, Youth-for-Christ High schools nowadays have many extracurricular offerings. Those who take advantage of them don't need secret clubs. Readers' Forum (Q) "Many parents approve of secret clubs.

Some even try to get their children them. (A) In some schools club membership brings high social The clubs are like college fraternities or sororities. Parents want their children to "rate." They'don't understand -the risks of the secret clubs. If they did they'd feel differently. (Copyright 1959, Gen'l Features Corp.) Dinner Party Mr.
