McGhee gall bladder removal aids Bonn envoy
U S Air Force doctors operated today to remove Ambassador George C. McGhee's gall bladder in Wiesbaden, Germany, after a Bonn embassy announcement. The 60 year old envoy, a native of Waco Texas, was reported in stable condition. Lou Nova, former heavyweight boxer turned actor, won a legal case in Los Angeles Municipal Court by an acquittal on a slow driving charge after defending himself against the prosecutor’s inability to prove a clear violation of the law. Nova, 47, had previously fought Joe Louis and later pursued Broadway acting. In New York, Robert F Kennedy hosted about 200 associates at an ice skating party at Rockefeller Center, where guests skated and socialized amid light refreshments. Ellen Popwar, a Pittsburgh shoeshine worker, gained attention as the city’s first shoeshine girl at Extor’s Edge barbershop, earning about ten dollars daily. Tracy Waterfield, 17, daughter of Jane Russell and Bob Waterfield, remained under a private doctor’s care after a suicide attempt at Van Nuys High School following news of her parents’ divorce.
