English School Mistress
Draws Up Set of Rules
For Teen-Age Parties
FARMHAN, England OP — An
English school mistress has drawn
up a set of rules for teen-age
parties.
Miss Miss D. M. Inman, head
mistress of Farmhan Girls Gram
mar School, Friday sent the par
ents of 360 students a five-point
blueprint for teen-age parties.
More than 100 parents already
have given their approval to the
code, which says:
1. Don’t let teen-age parties be
held in your homes unless you are
there.
2. Expect to be regarded as host
and hostess and to be consulted
about who is invited.
3. Collect your daughters from
late parties or make sure they have
reliable escorts and know what
time they have to be home.
4. Cross-check with other parents
on any invitations for a daughter
to spend the night.
5. Explain to teen-agers why
such care has to be taken and
warn them of the dangers of teen
age drinking.
Miss Inman explained: “I have
heard from various sources about
these teen-age parties. I am sure
many parents are puzzled about
what they do.
“This code of conduct for par
ents is a guide which may be of
help to families all over the
country.”
SOVIET WHALING BOAT
CRIPPLED BY A WHALE
LONDON (&> — A Soviet whal
ing ship was rammed and crippled
in the Antarctic by a whale, Tass
reported yesterday.
r£he Soviet news agency said
the whale attacked after a harpoon
was buried in its blubber.
The massive head of the whale,
a cachelot, smashed against the
stern of the ship, snapping of:
Moroccan Baha’is
Sentenced to Death
Rod and Kathy Rodgers who
lived in Nome in 1958 have been
active in teaching the Baha’i Faith
in Morocco for the past several
years.
An appeal trial there which is
attracting international attention
opened on Dec. 10 in Nador.
The trial was a direct attack on
the Baha’i Faith and its followers
and involved the far-reaching
question of whether a Muslim may
change his faith or not. The in
fluences motivating these arrests
can perhaps be gleaned from a
statement reported by one of the
ministers, “during 60 years of oc
cupation, the French were unable
to convert even one of our sub
jects. These people (the Baha’is)
during a short time have succeed
ed in taking away many of our
well-edcuated and intelligent
people.”
Sentenced to death were a
school teacher, police inspector and
a school director. Imprisoned for
life were five of the accused and
a state official received a 15 year
sentence.
The response from the press of
the world was immediate and in
dignant at the announcement of
the sentences. The new Moroccan
constitution guaranteeing freedom
of religion had only recently been
overwhelmingly accepted by a na
tional referendum three days be
fore the trial opened.

“What fight/’ asked Liston when

“I’m not mad at anybody. Who

Liston said he would rest a week

swinging a golf club in a pose for

The injury caused a postpone

Aging Talent Agent
Is Killer of Young
j Red-Haired Opera Star
ROME (A1) — “I know it’s insane
' to want to hold on to someone who
no longer cares for you.”
Police said that was in a letter
American opera star Frances Mc
Cann had in her purse when she
was found shot dead in her room
in a Rome hotel. The author, they
said, was talent agent Ernest
Arthur Boxmann, accused of pump
ing four bullets into the singer,
then shooting himself in the head.
‘‘But for me,” the letter con
tinued, “you will always be the
most beautiful, adorable woman
that God ever created.”
Miss McCann, 41, was mature
and lovely, with red hair and
green eyes. Boxmann, 53, was
paunchy and balding.
She was a married woman with
four children at home in Altadena,
Calif., and a brilliant singing
career in Europe.
Saturday, she lay dead in a
Rome morgue, her body tom by
bullets. Boxmann tossed in de
lirium at a Rome hospital suffer
ing from a head wound caused by
a bullet from the same gun.
Police said he killed her with
four shots in her room at the
Bernini-Bristol Hotel, returned to
his own room down the hall and
then, hours later, turned the gun
against himself.

State Delegation
I Seek to Claim
jFish Resources of
Continental Shelf
By Frill With
WASHINGTON UH — With an
eye on expanding Russian and
Japanese fishing in the North
Pacific, the Alaska congressional
delegation wants the federal gov
ernment to stake a claim on cer
tain off-shore fishing areas.
The delegation seeks a decla
ration that the United States
claims jurisdiction over Dungeness
and King Crab resources of the
Continental Shelf.
In a joint letter to Dean Rusk,
Secretary of State, the three-man
delegation said it supports a reso
lution of the Alaska legislature
seeking protection of the two crab
species under international law.
The declaration of jurisdiction
would be made under the Interna
tional Convention on the Conti
nental Shelf, which the United
States has ratified.
The delegation told Rusk that
the convention “recognizes that a
coastal state has sovereign rights
in the exploitation of certain
natural resources on the Conti
nental Shelf.”
They said there has been suffi
cient time for study and research
and expressed a hope that there
will be “an early determination”
by the government that these crab
species qualify for protection
under the convention.
A delegation spokesman explain
ed that such a declaration would
not mean banning Russian and
Japanese fishermen from the Un
claimed crabbing beds but would
establish a basis for future action
if it is considered necessary to
preserve the resource.
“We believe it is necessary for
our government to take a clear
position on this matter in time to
establish clearly our exclusive
rights in this area,” the delegation
said, referring to the Bering Sea
and Gulf of Alaska.
They cited these figures:
Between 1957 and 1961, the
United States catch of King Crab
ranged from 14 million to 43 mil
lion pounds, the Japanese from 34
million to 47 million and the
Russians from 66 million to 81
million pounds.
