NAM! i) SCCR! i'AI!V OF
EDI 'CATION AND WFI.FARF
II VAN NTS PORT, Mass. I/P —
President Kennedy S a t u r cl a y
named Anthony J. Celebrezze,
Mayor of Cleveland. Ohio, as the
new Secretary of Health, Educa
tion and Welfare.
Celebrezze will succeed Abra
ham Ribicoff, who resigned Thurs- j
day when he formally announced
his candidacy for the Democratic j
nomination for the Senate from
Connecticut.
The identity of Ribicoff’s succes
sor was one of the best kept secrets
of the Kennedy administration.
Celebrezze’s name had not fig
ured in the speculation for the
post. Many others had been men
tioned, but informed sources, with
out giving any hint as to whom
it would be, insisted the appoint
ment would come as a surprise.
Celebrezze, 51, has been mayor
of Cleveland since 1953.
Kennedy, in announcing the ap
pointment, said Celebrezze “brings
to my cabinet a wealth of experi
ence gained from having worked
through the years with the prob- 1
lems of people, particularly in the
areas of health, education and
welfare.”
Celebrezze was born Sept. 4, 1910
at Nazi, Italy. White House press
secretary Andrew Hatcher explain
ed, however, that his parents, who
were natives of Italy, were natural
ized U.S. citizens who were visit
ing their homeland at the time.
This made him an American citi
zen automatically, Hatcher said.
Celebrezze, one of 13 children,
attended Cleveland public schools
and John Carroll University. He
then went to Ohio Northern Uni
versity where he received his law
degree in 1936.
BANKRUPT MOTEL
PILLS SUIT AGAINST
TWO C21 ORGANIZATIONS
SEATTLE </Pi — The bankrupt
Travelers Village, Inc., filed a
$519,174 suit Friday against two
World’s Fair organizations, charg
ing the defendants reneged on
i*: anises to keep the 150-trailer
court filled with Fair visitors.
The Superior Court complaint
also charges Expo-Lodging and
Century 21, the defendants, with
giving preferential listings to hous
ing operations in which Fair of
ficials or employes had an interest.
The trailer venture failed re
cently and the Fair is reimbursing
tourists who had paid Travelers
Village some $95,000 in advance
reservations.
The defunct firm said the Fair
had promised to keep its trailers
booked full during July, August
and September but provided less
than 10 per cent of the needed re
ferrals.
The Fair recently opened a fed
eral court action asking the
Travelers Village be placed in re
ceivership.

JFK Says “Man
With the Rifle” I
Still Indispensable
WASHINGTON <JP> — The age
of nuclear warfare has made “the
man with the rifle" more than
ever indispensable to the nation’s
defense, in the view of President
Kennedy.
At the close of a smart cere
monial parade by Marine Corps
troopers in the quadrangle of the
161-year-old Marine Corps bar
racks here last Thursday night,
Kennedy delivered an unscheduled
speech in tribute to the men who
stormed the beaches and stalked
the jungles.
Kennedy sat in rapt attention
through the hour-long review, then
told the troops and dignitaries of
the government and Congress who
watched with him:
“All of us. I am sure, 10 years
ago thought that the need for the
man with th« rifle would be pas
sing away from the scene in the
1960’s, and it is true that there are
a good many Americans tonight
who are stationed underground in
a hardened silo whose only duty
is to watch some tables and some
dials and a button.
“But the very size and magni
tude of the new, great weapons
have placed a new emphasis upon
what we call rather strangely con
ventional war.
“They have made it even more
mandatory than ever that we keep
the man with the rifle, and that
is what the Marine Corps has em
phasized.
“No matter how complicated
war has now become, we need a
Navy which can send ships closer
to shore; we need an Air Force
that can protect those ships; we
need small boats that can take men
on a beach and we need men who
will go ashore.
“The Marine Corps, the Navy, the
Army, and the Air Force do that,
and I hope that the people of this
country and all those who look to
this country for their independ
ence know how’ indebted they must
be to those of you who serve . .
SPOKANE YOUTH

SPOKANE, Wn. (fft — A young

Gordon Fowle, 48, a public rela
tions man, late Thursday in front

ist.

ham’s car, hobbled with leg irons
and forced into the trunk.

ably near the Washington-Idaho
border. The girl was not harmed.
In the car were a sub-machine
gun, a carbine rifle, a .45 caliber
pistol and a knife, Police Chief

PRINCESS MAlUiAHI i
i I ADS COMING OUT
PARTY WITH Till: TWIST
By Eddy Gilmore
WOODSTOCK, England WPt —
Ancient Blenheim Palace, birth
place of Sir Winston Churchill,
jumped to the twist Saturday.
Princess Margaret led the beat at
a gay coming out party for a pretty
American debutane.
The honking rhythm echoed
until near dawn through the 10th
Duke of Marlborough’s stately
303-room hall as 1,100 guests
gyrated between gulps of lobster
and champagne.
The glittering ball, attended by
the cream of British and American
society, served a double purpose.
The 64-year-old Duke gave it as
a coming out party for his half
American granddaughter, Serena
Russell, 18, of Berwyn. Pa.
It also marked the 22nd birthday
of his son, Lord Charles George
William Colin Spencer-Churchill, a
junior at Vanderbilt University in
Nashville, Tenn.
Princess Margaret, her hair an
orange tinge and set in a new
style, did a sprightly but not vio
lent twist, spectators said.
Thus she became the second
member of Britain’s royal family
to be spotted doing the twist in
public. The Duke of Edinburgh
performed the dance at a ball
given this spring by Queen Juliana
of the Netherlands.
The American guest of honor,
Miss Russell, also was born in
the 340-year-old palace.
U.S. ARMY CAPTAIN KILLED
IN VIET CONG AMBUSH
SAIGON, South Viet Name (J’t —
A U.S. Army captain and at least
23 Vietnamese soldiers were killed
Saturday when a government con
voy was ambushed by Communist
Viet Cong forces 40 miles north
of Saigon.
The name of the dead American
was withheld pending notification
of his family. His death brought
to seven the number of American
servicemen killed in combat with
the Viet Cong since the buildup of
U.S. forces began here last De
cember. Sixteen others have died
in accidents.
U.S. authorities reported that the
Viet Cong ambush force was under
air observation and was being pur
sued by fighter planes, U.S. Army
helicopters loaded with South Viet
namese troops and transport planes
carrying paratioops.
The ambush was in a heavily
forested area of National Route 13,
the same road on which two U.S.
officers were killed in another Red
ambush June 16.
About 280 government troops
were in the convoy as it headed
north on an escort mission.
TWO FISHERMEN
ARE FATALLY INJURED
SEATTLE tiP) — Two fishermen
were injured fatally Saturday
when struck by a heavy sling load
of salmon cans in an accident at
Cordova, relatives were informed.
The Men were Emil B. Johanson,
60, Seattle, and Harold Hendrick
son, Everett.
Johanson was skipper of the Pa
cific Fisheries Cannery tender
Menshikoff, which was loading
salmon cans at a Cordova pier.
Hendrickson was a crew member.
Paul Johanson, son of the boat
captain, said he was told the Men
shikoff s mast broke when a stay
snapped. The load fell on the men
in the stern of the boat.
Dress Designer
Has Solution for
Zipper Problem
By Joy Miller
NEW YORK — Ever feel a
woman should have been born with
extra-long arms, to be able to zip
up the back of her dress without
dislocating her spine?
Designer Ronald Amey has a
better solution. He puts a zipper
across each shoulder instead of
down the back. This opens up the
top of the dress and, since Amey
has elasticized most midriffs, you
can step right in and pull it up
without ruffling hair or disposi
tion.
This might seem to be a bit of
usefulness away from a husband
and making him feel less war-tt 1,
but think how it would cheer the
spinster who has to do her own
zipping.
The visiting Fashion Press, end
ing out a week of viewing New
York couture group fall collections,
applauded his zipper ingenuity and
one editor cried “Thank you, sir!”
Amey, short, baldish and 30,
from Suprior, Ariz., is the design
ing half of Burke-Amey, a firm
only 3 years old but already high
ly regarded for its bold concept
of fashion.
Imaginative Amey likes a total
look. He designs all accessories
himself; for fall they are cordovan
leather shoes to be worn with all
woolens, and tall- tall turbans.
He deliberately mismatched furs
throughout the collection, refused
to match gloves with shoes. “I don't
like the spotty look," was his
rather obscure explanation.
Color combinations were start
ling at first glance: Yellow pressed
mohair coat, blue dress, purple
hat, dark red shoes. The total ef
fect, however, was as delightful as
Amey confidently assumed it would
be.
