British Sex Scandal Involves Names i
Of Many Rich and Famous People
LONDON UP) — The prosecution
paraded one beautiful girl after
another Saturday to testify in the
vice hearing of Dr. Stephen Ward,
the osteopath who broke open the
story of sin in high places.
The girls testified against Ward
as the crown developed its eight
charge case against Ward, involv
ing procuring, brothel-keeping and
abortion. Ward’s disclosures
brought disgrace to ex-War Minis
ter John Profumo and almost top
pled the Conservative government.
First lovely to take the stand
was Marilyn (Mandy) Rice-Davis,
a pert 18-year-old blonde friend
of Christine Keeler. Miss Keeler
testified Friday she had been in
timate with Profumo and with a
Soviet naval attache. Ward ;s
charged with living off the two
girls’ earnings.
Mandy began giving her evi
dence in the first sensational day
of the hearing Friday, involving
the names of rich and famous
people.
Under cross-examination she re
peated that she and Lord Astor
had been intimate.
Ward’s attorney told her Vis
count Astor had made a statement
to police denying her allegations.
She perkily replied:
“He would, wouldn’t he?”
This brought a laugh from the
crowded courtroom.
It was Ward who introduced
Christine to Profumo and Soviet
naval attache Eugeny Ivanov. It
was also Ward who broke the
scandal involving the three-way
sex relationship of Miss Keeler,
Profumo and Ivanov, a Soviet in
telligence agent.
Miss Rice-Davis was followed on
the witness stand by a tall, dark
haired girl identified only as Miss
X. Ward, a 50-year-old osteopath,
is charged with conspiring to pro
cure her to have unlawful sexual
intercourse.
Still another girl. Sally Jean
Norie, 22, testified she and Ward
had been intimate while staying
a weekend at Ward's country
house on Lord Astor's Cliveden
estate. Under cross-examination
she said as far as she was concern
ed it was a voluntary affair with
Ward.

Miss Keeler, 21, wearing an off
white suit and an air of cool self
confidence, said Lord Astor had
paid the rent of one apartment she
occupied — “though there was no
ulterior motive in that.’’
She admitted she had sexual re
lations with Profumo, and slept
only once with Ivanov. She also
told of affairs with Jim Eylan—
“an indiscret businessman,” and
with a man named Charles who
lived near Park Lane.
Some, she said, had given her
money or presents. Profumo gave
her presents — and money for her
mother. From Eylan she had had
some hundreds of pounds. Charles
gave her 50 pounds — $140.
She gave some of the money to
Ward, she testified. She added
that her meetings with Eylan of
ten occurred when Ward said he
was short of money.
But “I never considered myself
a prostitute or a call girl,” she said.
“Stephen said that you have to
have the mentality of a prostitute,
which I didn’t have, and it was
not quite so wrong just once or
twice sleeping with a man and
having some money from him; a
man I knew and liked.”
Christine declared she had
never had sexual relations with
Ward.
"We were like brother and sis
ter. My life really used to revolve
around Stephen,” she testified.
Among the things he asked her
to do, she related, was to bring
home girls who had taken his
fancy. Christine said she even took
a job as a model in order to meet
girls that Ward would like.
Rumors have been circulating
in Moscow that Cmdr. Ivanov —
the former assistant Soviet naval
attache — is in total disgrace in
his homeland.
According to one rumor, he was
booted out of the Communist
party and the navy.
Another rumor has him under
house arrest in Moscow.
The Crow Had Been Cooked . . .
MOSES LAKE, Wn. tP —
A careless crow
With nowhere to go
Perched on a wire and
Started a fire.
That blackened, alas,
Fifty acres of grass.
When it touched a transformer
The climate turned warmer;
By firemen overheated
The blaze was defeated;
And they found when they looked
The crow had been cooked.

Pope Paul VI Holds
Audience with Newsmen
VATICAN CITY UP — In his
first audience for .journalists Pope
Paul VI Satui'day praised their
work in reporting his election —
but with some reservations.
He received 600 newsmen in a
half-hour audience in Clemintine
Hall. He addressed them in a
friendly manner as “colleagues
and friends.”
On the whole, he said, the cover
age of his election to succeed Pope
John XXIII was good. He noted
they were preparing to give “news,
impressions, forecasts and com
ments” about h i s coronation.
Then he added what appeared to
be implied criticism of some re
porting:
“Should we limit the expres
sions of our recognition because of
much that was found to be fan
tastic, inopportune, and inexact in
the reporting and interpretation
of this event <his election), which
was so close to our person and so
watched by public opinion?
“We will be indulgent toward
these — alas not too unusual
— journalistic liberties, and in
stead limit our view to the over
all value of your reporting. We
willingly give you the prize of
our praise and our gratitude.”
He gave no indication of just
what he did not like in the papal
election stories.
The audience served as an in
dication that the new Pope in
tends to continue the Roman
Catholic Church’s new attitude
toward information.
Under Pope John XXIII, the
Vatican revolutionized its rela
tions with the press, making more
information available on church
affairs than ever in the past.

handling juvenile delinquency
cases, recently authorized by the
state legislature, is now in process,
it was reported by Mr. John Cross,
Kotzebue member of the Alaska
Judicial Council.

particularly the question of wheth

should be in the Superior Court,
rather than at the Magistrate Court
level as at present, is being made
under the direction of the Judicial
Council, in cooperation with the
Youth and Adult Authority of the
Dept, of Health and Welfare. Ju
venile detention facilities, court
procedures and other related prob

working in this field, is aiding the
study with its professional staff,
Mrs. Helen Sumner, western re
gional consultant for the NCCD,
will be in Alaska commencing
