Let Givers Know What To Give
Tour Children For Christinas
Nearly a third of the gifts your
chf&direai receive this Christmas
will come from relatives and
triends who seldom see the young
sters.
It is foolish to be bashful about
writing informative letters con
cerning the children’s ages and
play interests to persons you
know will be sending gifts, advises
Dr. Mary Moffitt, child develop
ment proffessor ait Queens College
and educational advisor to Toy
Guidance Council.
If the parents don‘t write these
letters, says Dr Moffitt, it is a
good idea for the givers to check
on such essential facts as age. It
is difficult to adjust your mental
picture of a youngster you haven’t
seen for a long time.
Obviously, playthings will bring
much pleasure on Christmas if
they are chosen to fit the young
ster's stage of developement.
Dr. Moffitt also warns that chil
dren's interests change from year
to year. The toy intensely wanted
last year may no longer be of in
terest.
If only the age of the child is
known, it is possible for the giver
to get helpful information from
good toy stores about toys which

Saturday
A Jules Verne story will be told
on the screen Saturday night when
‘From the Earth to the Moon,’ will
be shown. A science-fiction ad
venture, it is Verne‘s idea of a
projectile flight to the moon, pre
dicted nearly 100 years ago.
A good cast headed by Joseph
Cotten, George Sanders and Deb
ra Paget, who are aboard the pro
jectiles flight to the moon. Cotten,
a millionaire inventor in the days
following the Civil War, discovers

ergy, which can destroy an entire
city. He uses the power to shoot
the moon.

and Erin 0‘brien.

Scenes showing people petri
fied through contact with the met
eoric scourge are strange high
lights of the film.
‘Apache Territory’ shares the
same billing with ‘The Monolith
Monsters,’ Columbia Pictures saga
of the great Southwest Indian up
rising, with Rory Calhoun featured
as a steely-nerved desert drifter,
who, with some others, finds re
fuge from marauding Indians at
the water hole of Papago Wells.

and Leo Gordon are featured in
the film, which is in Eastman color.
