THE BOULEVARD BEAT By BILL BUSH A Sunnyvale letter earner legged it into the Valley today with mail cart in hand after a 10-day walk from South San Francisco gathering support for a bill now pending in Congress.

John White, who usually covers only six miles on his daily route, was trying to stimulate interest in a bill that would- evenly split hospital costs of post office and federal Civil Service employees between the government and the postal employes. The passage of tills bill would relieve some of the financial burden of the postal worker who nets from $15 to $35 less than the average community salary, he said. The salary of the postal worker is so low that he can rarely qualify for any type of loan to purchase a house, White ex-plined. In all, the lettW carrier walked more than 200 miles of the journey. I accepted a few rides, he said.

White, the father of six cliil dren, contacted post offices, radio and TV stations and newspapers each town he passed. The response to my walk was wonderful and I received terrific receptions all along the way, he said, adding that he had no trouble with his feet. White said that he did receive some strange, questioning looks when I would walk into a new town in my mailman uniform pushing tire mail cart and ask someone where the Dost office In The Heart Of NORTH HOLLYWOOD Relax in the Quiet of KENNY'S RESTAURANT COCKTAIL LOUNGE This Is Show Biz Frank Sennes comes up with a startling bit of news regarding his Moulin Rouge.

Mrs. Wyn Harris, 35, of 4221 Longridge North Hollywood, told Superior Judge Roger Alton Pfaff, yesterday, the producer drank too much, causing i her "great embarrassment and humiliation." a Mrs. Harris, former, secretary to the late Harry Cohn, former head of Columbia Pictures, was awarded $500 a month support for herself and son Byron; 10.

Hie couple married in Las Vegas Janl 19, 1947, and parted May 11, this year. Magazines for Asians is the result of a trip Mrs. Mayers took with her husband to the Orient last spring. Spending nearly six weeks in such places as Singapore. Hongkong, and Thailand, the Mayers came across many of the Communist-inspired magazines that tell of American life as Russia sees it.

As far as the colors and repro-durtions go. those magazines are very good, but their contents are anything but good, Mrs. Mayers said. Sugar-coated poison, is the way her husband, Henry Mayers, described them. After talking with American officials while on their travels, learning that many of the Oriental people dearly love to read an American magazine whenever possible, the Mayers returned home, determined to do something to help.

Writes Letter Mrs. Mayers wrote a letter to the editor of the Indonesian Post in Djarkarta. Indonesia, informing him that if some of his readers would just send her a letter requesting an American magazine or publication, she would send it immediately. Not expecting more than 50 or 60 letters, Mrs. Mayers was surprised when she returned home from a vacation to find on her dining-room table 2,500 letters from Indonesians.

And so it started. Now, Magazines for Asians has more than 30 busy people helping Mayers read the many letters they receive from giving the letters to group members with similar interests so that specific magazines sent will defiqetly be of interest to those requesting them. The letters received from the Asians make the groups members know they are accomplishing their purpose. And it is this fascination, leading to a greater understanding by people of Asiatic countries, that is "building a bridge of friendship between those countries and the United States. It's being done through something Americans consider a relatively simple thing, reading American magazines.

As Asians have a tremendous desire to read about America, said Mrs. Sophie Mayers of Hollywood, and the Russians and the Communist Chinese are trying to satisfy that desire with their own publications, magazines and papers filled with lies about our country. But we In this country can fill the Asians' need, too, and fill it with something we usually throw away, our old magazines. Expensive Reading In these Oriental countries, said Mrs. Lucl Ward Natteford of North Hollywood, "only the wealthy can afford to buy an American magazine.

A citizen of Kerala, India, for instance, can get a copy of Time from Manila for about $3 American. This is more than the average Indian makes in a week. Russia and Red China know this, so they deluge the Indians with free propaganda." Mrs. Mayers heads an organization known as Magazines for Aeians, a growing group of Southern Californians, of whom is Mrs. Natteford, who takes the time to bundle up recent back issues of American magazines, sending them, along with a personal note, to any Asian asking for them.

How many Asians are going to actually sit down and write a letter to a stranger asking for an American magazine, you may ask. Since. January, more than 16,000 Asaifs from nine different 'countries have done just that, averaging almost 600 letters a week. Parents magazine, said, I was surprised and pleased to learn that Americans have the same: worries and problems with their youngsters as we do. Another said, American magazines are to people in Indonesia windows into life in your country- i And another: When I hear that Americans will send us their used magazines, it is to me like seeing the sunshine after the rain.

Of the group's work. Mrs. Mayers said, We -feel that we are getting across to the average Asian the feelings of the average American. These people are discovering that Americans have problems, as well as, or instead of, riches, problems just everyone else. Interested persons wanting to help Mrs.

Mayers in her work are asked to send a stamped, sell-addressed envelope to Magazines for Asians, P.O. Box 3196, Hollywood 28, enclosing a note describing their magazines and their interests. In due time, they will receiye a letter from an Asian and complete mailing instructions. Like Gold Remember, group member Mrs. Natteford said, every single copy of an American magazine received by a free Asian is cherished like gold.

It goes from hand to hand, from village to village, until it literally falls to pieces. So instead of letting your magazine fall into the. trash can, let it fall into the hands of an Asian who Contest" 'Ladies' Nite" Thursday Night' Tuesday Arthur Cocktail Lounge 6907 LANKERSHIM BLYD.
