Just Plain "Mrs. HaymesJ "It sounds so wonderwul to be called Mrs. Haymes," said a wet-eyed Rita Hayworth yesterday following her Rambling-house wedding to crooner Dick Haynes. Here, the couple confer with attorney Bartley Crum (right) at Las Vegas as final plans were drafted for the scenario-like marriage the fourth for each contestant. Rila Weds Dick Haymes: rence of graven images.

During the Italian. High Renaissance and the pseudo-Renaissance of the 19th century, religion was plunged into a new crisis a crisis of the opposite character: the "images" became cheap, pretty illustrations. The great Raphael was in a way the first grave-digger of religious art because the beautiful arrangement of his idealized Madonnas led to the candy box sweetness of the 19th Century Scripture illustrations. And the predominant materialism of the age hollowed the meaning of religious art. Then, with the approach of the new century a new crisis befell sacred subject-matter.

Religious painting was wildly stripped of Its 19th century in-stripped of its 19th century prettiness and draped with the experimental rags of the new era: expressionistic intensity, radical distortion of the figure, bold, totally unromantic composition. Many Shocked Many an innovator in the field of religious art has shocked church-goers and even gallery-goers, and with some reason. A recent encyclical letter advises a proper balance, avoiding excessive realism and excessive 'symbolism', but "contemporary designs which lend themselves to the materials of modern composition should not be entirely rejected out of prejudice." One of the most impressive rebuilders of religious art is of course Rouault, who combines 20th Century thought with the deep spirituality of a Byzantine artist and manages to paint his modern images of Christ with the thick, lead-like contours of medieval stained glass. Here in Ottawa, the young Hungarian Victor Tolgesy draws a good deal of inspiration from spiritual themes. His exhibition of sculpture at Robertson Galleries shows a sincere mind wrestling with deeply human divine subjects.

His craftsmanship is all the more surprising as he is entirely self-taught. There is 'no doubt that the pathos of his subjects and the deep impression made upon him by Ivan Mestrovic and the German wood-carver and poet Ernst Barlach have been an enormous help to his development. He has a strong feeling for plastic masses and linear simplification, only here and there threatened by too obvious stylization and formalism. Really Love Mind Do people "think out" their political opinions? Answer: Not very often. People who are highly partisan generally accept whatever their party is for and reject what it is against.

Others have a fundamental philosophy to guide them, such as liberal or conservative, and follow the general guidance of liberal or conservative 'leaders. I a Hoiger in the Journal of Social Psychology says our political attitudes are first form ed in adolescence when we have little critical ability to make such important decisions SCHOOL 3 Do most present-day pupils fear their teachers? Answer: No, they just talk as if they did. Actually, many pre-school children develop a fear of teachers from the "tall tales" of older youngsters; believing teachers to be mean females who stand pupils in corners and keep them, after school. Children have been known to spend their first day at school without recognizing the "nice" lady in charge as their teacher. Happily, most 1 youngsters get over this initial shock and accept their teacher for what she is.

Smulial Lags Behind Clock Uj) In Tower By The Canadian Press Someone's been tinkering with the Parliament Hill sundial. Yesterday it was running two hours' behind the Peace Tower clock and, making an allowance for daylight saving, that makes it still an hour off. Dominion Astronomer C. S. Beals said "this matter has come to our attention," but added: "Normally a sundial Is not too bad a teller of time.

If properly constructed and located, it should be accurate to within five minutes." Tourists or children playing In the vicinity are believed to have knocked the sundial's gnomon. That's the triangular piece of copper which throws a shadow on the sundial's base, giving the time. This particular sundial was erected in J919 as a gift from the Historic Monuments Association of Canada. It stands on the same spot where sappers of the Royal Engineers first set up a sundial in 1826. il Tl AN MX STAR SH0W( featuring Captain Shaw Oliver Wakefield Bruce Stevens Chris Columbo and the June Oliver Dancers Reservations PR 'The Man 1 By The Associated Press IAS VEGAS.

Nev Rita Hay-worth and Dick Haymes were married Thursday in a three-minute ceremony that looked more like a Hollywood press conference than a wedding. The bride's two little daughters. Rebecca, eight, and the Princess Yasmine, 3V2, sat on a divan while their mother and Haymes went through the ceremony In a hotel. The children kept turning their hcaas from the photographers back to the wedding ceremony almost as though watching a match. Like Movie Scene The wedding, staged by a press agent as if it were a scene out of one of Miss Hayworth's movies, was an hour iate.

This was due in part to the bride's nervousness in getting dressed and to the judge's tardiness because of a jury trial he was conducting downtown. It was the fourth marriage for each. Haymes obtained a Nevada decree only Wednesday from Nora Edriington Flynn Haymes. She won a California decree last week. Rita was divorced from Moslem Prince Aly Khan In Reno last January.

Bita went calmly through the ceremony until she answered with the traditional, "I do." Then big tears came to her eyes and she started fidgeting. The ceremony was so brief It wa3 over before the double ring part of the rite could be ac-complisned. Haymes got the ring on Rita's finger during the three minute span, but after the wedding was over hotelman Jack Entratter fished out the ring that Rita was supposed to put on Haymes' finger. So she put it on anyway. When her daughter "Yasmine By Carl Weiselberger The Planets are not likely to rotate to a Music of the Spheres composed by Arthur Sullivan, nor can Angels be seen equipped with the pretty figures and faces of 19th Century illustrations to the Bible.

The stern 13th saints and angels of Cimabue and Giotto look at least to our eyes-much closer to the holy fountain. And modern artists are ardently striving to find new forms and designs for sacred subject-matter. Characteristic examples are the works of two young Ottawa artists: One of them, the Hungarian-Canadian sculptor Victor Tolgesy is presently exhibiting at Robertson Galleries and his display will be followed by Gerald Trottier's show of religious paintings opening on October 1. The history of religious art is fraught with drama, picturesque and often un-picturesque literally so, since the "picture breakers" have been at work since the dawn of human history. "Graven images" of God were forbidden.

"You shall not make aiiy likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth" thus the commandment of Moses to protect Hebrew monotheism which was time and again threatened by such relapses as Aaron's golden calf. Abhorred Art The Christian Fathers abhorred art (and so did even Plato). According to' Clement of Alexandria, the artist would "rob God because he seeks to usurp the Divine prerogative of creation, and by means of plastic or graphic art, pretends to be a maker of animals and plants." How more arrogant and evil to visualize the images of God and the Saints and remake them in stone or on church walls or scrolls!

Hold Announcer For Broadcast On Fceiig Pilot By Reuters News Agency SEOUL Police here said Thursday they had arrested a Seoul radio announcer for saying the North Korean pilot who landed a Russian-built MIQ jet-fighter in South Korea was being "tortured" by United Nations officers instead of "interrogated." Police said the announcer was believed to be a "Communist spy" and "purposely misread" his news script. Mental Illness Huge Problem Says Martin Health Minister Martin yesterday said mental illness in its various forms "has become one of Canada's most formidable health problems." He said in a prepared address at the opening of the annual meeting of the Advisory Committee on mental health that "we must redouble our efforts to come to grips with this serious threat to the nation's health." Mr. Martin said there are nearly 60,000 patients in Can adian mental hospitals and "other thousands suffering from less serious mental or emotional disorders Provincial health departments had developed considerable programs to combat mental illness and some provincial mental Institutions "now are recognized as models of their kind on this continent." Effective work in training and research also was being done by universities. "The Federal Government recognized the magnitude of the problem by earmarking its largest single health grant now totalling more than a year for work in this field." However, he said, he believes "that a much greater proportion of the grant to any one province should be reserved for the training of staff, the carrying on of research and other essential activities." mm.

The Associated Press UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. Thor Thors, Iceland's chief delegate, told the U.N. Assembly Thursday President Eisenhower, Prime Minister Churchill and Premier Malenkov ought to get together. He said the chiefs of state of the United States, Britain and the Soviet Union all had indicated they wanted to talk over a settlement between East and West. The U.N.

must never become "a Russian hallelujah prop-ganda. society nor an exclusive American club," Thors said. The only immediate response was from Russia's Andrei Y. Vishinsky. He looked up from his note-taking and gave a hearty laugh.

The police had difficulty keeping a narrow pathway clear for the Princess as she walked into the ballroom.

Many people who scoff at their ability and "play down" their virtues have learned that this outward display of modesty will bring the most satisfying praise. In the various types of false mod Still Hoping Convoy Will Visit Toronto By The Canadian Press Health Minister Ma: tin says he "still" hopes an educational civil defence convoy will visit Toronto during its trans-continental tour. Mr.

Martin, whose department is responsible for the national civil defence effort, expressed disappointment that Toronto had turned down a visit by the convoy which has been designated "Operation 'On Guard "But," he said in an interview, "I'm still hoping t.iat mutual arrangements will be effected to make such a visit possible. We are working on this now." Toronto Is the only major city in Canada at present not listed or. the convoy's itinerary. City officials said they did not consider the expense entailed would justify a visit. Mr.

Martin, asked what he thought Toronto's civil defence role should' be, recalled what he had said in a Commons debate last May: "Our civil defence plan is modelled on that of the United Kingdom where emphasis is laid upon the important part, the all-important part, that must be taken by loca. bodies." "A civil defence organization is incapable of successful action unless on the local level there Is the greatest of interest, cooperation and contribution." Mr. Martin declined to elab orate, beyond saying that his department provided the city with 35 sirens which have as yet been installed. He added that under existing arrangements, half of the installation costs would be borne by the federal government. It was learned that the civil defence budget of the city of Montreal is $200,000.

Toronto's was said to be about $10,000. Discussing civil defence in general, Mr. Martin said: "There is a widespread conviction that the federal government should provide all the money. We don't agree. We feel that if we did we would not get the kind of co-operation we need." He noted that in the United Kingdom, which has "the most experienced" civil defence organization in the world, the national government pays 25 percent of civil defence costs, local governments the remainder.

The federal government, he said, is more generous propor tionately than tHe U.K. govern ment. Mr. Martin said the federal government pays for all of the training of civil defence instructors, and all basic equip ment such as sirens, fire pumps, overalls for civil defence work ers, helmets, gas masks, stretchers, etc. In addition, the federal government will earmark one dol lar for every dollar put up by the provinces.

Long Procession The wedding procession was" one of the longest in Las Vegas history. Rita and Dick, arm in arm, walked from her quarters in a remote section of the sprawling resort hotel. Several hundred people lined the way, a half dozen or more standing atop the high diving board at the pool to get a better look. Trie two came in the side entrance of the hotel, past the casino where two crap games went on without a miss of the dice.

As they went upstairs to where they were to be married, lathered customers of the barber shop lined the haliway and pincurled matrons got up from the beauty salon to gawk at the wedding party. As they sat chatting with a reporter, Haymes' mother called from New York to congratulate her son and new daughter-in-law. Haymes Had to tell his mother. "We're not mairled yet. I'll call you afterward.

I want to get married now." Rita wore a short-sleeved blue linen dress that ihe had worn many times before, and a toast colored tulle and velvet hat. She wore gloves to match, and carried a bouquet of orchids and lilies of the valley. Haymes wore a blue pinstripe suit and blue tie. Rita said; "I feel happy. I am married to the man I really love.

He is the kind of boy who seems very adult early in life. This often provides us with a false Idea of his future growth and poten tialities.

We find in general that these children are very egocentric. They are very poor losers. If they haven't the center of the stage, they produce mischief and disrupt things around' them. The downward path in school often begins around the 4th or 5th grade when their own real effort and motivation are needed. Up until this time they've been riding along on their own Innate intelligence.

Now it's time to work and they simply can get down to it. With approaching adolescence, thing will undoubtedly become more difficult.

Let him try public school. Any school that advises the father to strap a boy in front of the whole room is no place for a boy like this. Let up quite a bit on him. Don't be afraid to praise him. Give him as much responsibility as he can take but don't expect him to be consistent about his chores.

These children are very erratic and irregular in their development. Their mood, motivates them rather than your demands. They Improve slowly, especially through hard knocks. You may reasonably expect improvement by 15 or 18 years of age.

Further Display Victor Tolgesy's very promising display of sculpture at Robertson Galleries will be followed by an exhibition of even more decidedly "religious" paintings and lithographs by Gerald Trot-tier. The well known young Ottawa artist has just returned from a trip to Europe, a memorable pilgrimage to the Cathedral of Chartres the last 35 miles walking on foot.

The study of the Gothic cathedrals has strengthened Trottier's admiration of the simplicity of medieval craftsmanship. In such paintings as "The Mocking of Our or "Pilate Washing His Hands of Our he attempted successfully, we believe to revitalize, not to copy the Gothic craftsman's composition: his way of emphasizing, animating hands; the unified feeling flowing through a figure, which seemed more important than detailed knowledge of anatomy. Looking at such efforts, It does not really matter whether we, the gallery-goers, are firm, believers in religion. But If we believe in art, we must admit that spiritual themes have still a more edifying and educational effect on young artists than the non-represerjtatlonal fog of our new WIT!
