Princess Blamed For Popularity of Rock Roll Fad i LONDON rtP) A miffed dancini teacher rolled a brickbat today at Princess Margaret. She's made rock 'n' roll the fashion, John Dilworthy "Clearly frbm the teachers of ballroom dancing, there can be no" more bouquets for Princess Margaret," Dilworthy, secretary of the Midland Association of Teachers of Dancing, wrote in the association's magazine. It all started, he said, when the pretty princess bade farewell to' Governor Sir Evelyn Baring in Kenva last vear with: "See vnu "ill 1 ry 1 1 later, alligator."

Makowski, Marion Heights, 'was principal speaker. He was introduced by Stephen Olsheski, school principal. The program included selection, '-'America, Here Is My Boy," high schoool band; flag salute, students; national anthem, band; reading, "A Toast to the Flag," Donna Mayernick.

Borough Girl and Area Man Engaged Mrs. Mary Laskoskl, 1050 Scott Street, Kulpmont, has announced the engagement of her daughter, Martha, to Clarence J. Wagner, Mount Carmel.

Miss Laskoski is a graduate of Kulpmont High School, and is employed at Kanmak Mills. Wagner, son of Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Wagner, Mount Carmel, is a graduate of Mount Carmel High School. He is employed at Danville Foundry.

The engagement was announced on the weekend during a dinner in the Wagner home. The couple plans to be married next June. roll 'and approved of it."

Justice Department sources pointed out Rogers sat in on all the big policy-making meetings during the Little Rock integration crisis. They said there was never any friction on this score between Rog ers, then deputy attorney general, and his boss Brownell.

But the sources said pro-segre gationists are going to find it more difficult to cast Rogers in the role of villain than they, did Brownell. More flexible, more ready to compromise. Rogers uses the tech nique of friendly persuasion with Congress. Popular on Capitol Hill, he has seldom rubbed the lawmak ers the wrong way. Brownell, less outgoing and iden- tified with GOP politics, often clashed with congressmen.

This1 inevitably made his task a tougher one. Since his appointment Rogers has declined to discuss some of the pressing civil rights problems. He said it would be "inappropriate" before he got his feet wet in the new job. But in speeches on the question in the past Rogers has taken rection. "There was no Dilwor-" thv wrote.

"Bishons and town ennn. cillors were auiet. Newsnanprs Hlc. played pictures of debutantes act ing line teddy girls, dance halls featured rock 'n' roll nights."

The Reiland Agency was also cited as having attained the highest agency rating in the company. Television Being Used as Safety Device for Miners BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (IPI-Televis-ion is being used as a safety device for miners digging out ore more than 1,000 feet below the surface of Red Mountain near here. Tennessee Coal and Iron, a division of U.

S. Steel and the South's biggest steel producer, announced Monday that television cameras have been used at the level in Wenonah No. 11 mine since the first of the year. The cameras scan operations at a rotary dump yard and pass them to the monitors located 75 feet above. In the dump yard, loaded ore cars are automatically picked up and emptied into surface-bound skip cars prior to being placed back on the tracks and sent after another load of ore.

A signal system automatically stopped the movement of trains and halted the dumping operation when trouble developed in the operation in the past. TCI whitewashed the entire dump area within camera range to improve the quality of the picture and also installed superior TV screens of 400 lines or more as compared to less than 400 for most commercial sets. The cameras can be automatic ally swiveled so as to give the dump operators a complete view of the yard. i Elderly Man Escapes Blaze at Lime Ridge An elderly man. William Fawber.

Ryan, directed Miss Torre to reveal the CBS executive who supplied her with information on an article she wrote on actress Judy Garland Miss Torre "respectfully to disclose the name of the execu tive. The court then cited Miss Torre for criminal contempt but released her in the custody of Matthias Cor-rea, her attorney, pending an appeal. The judge conceded that there was "a substantial question of law" and one never decided by a high federal court as to whether a reporter may withhold the source for a published story.

He is Alfred Curran, "of 220 South Fifth Street.

He is six feet, two inches tall, weighs 160 pounds and has light brown hair and eyes. Nelson is approximately six feet tall, weighs 180 pounds, and has dark hair and eyes, police said. Adlai Declines (Continued from Page One) council meeting, the President conferred on next year's foreign aid program with Vice President Richard M.

Nixon, Secretary of State John Foster Dulles, Secretary of Treasury Robert B. Anderson, and Budget Director Perciva! Brundage. None of the conferees talked publicly after the meetings, and Hagerty supplied only the sketchiest details. The President scheduled an afternoon meeting with Aneurin Bevan, foreign policy leader of the British Labor Party, who has urged a "summit" meeting oi Western and Soviet leaders. Eisenhower planned a final late afternoon meeting with Anderson and his top economic advisers, presumably to consider the impact on the national economy of possible increased military spending.
