The 'Laying On Of Hands' Knocks Beatle Fans Cold By JAMES (RINGO) BACON AP Movie-Television Writer HOLLYWOOD (AP)--Some people will tell you that the Beatles are Britain's revenge for the War of 1812. I don't buy that. They're okay in my book. Until recently, I was just another Hollywood writer. rue, I was a confidante of lizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton, Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, Eddie Fisher and others who have generated mob hysteria. Then I met the Beatles and talked with them. More im- portant, they touched me, Ringo Starr laid his hand on my _ shoulder. ' Man, it made me an instant celebrity. Ringo, with that sad, sheep- dog look, did it. He's no Rock Hudson when it comes to looks but he's got something that girls crave. My encounter with Ringo | and the other Beatles took 'WEEK'S NEWS IN REVIEW Malaysian Tensions By ALEXANDER FARRELL pand provincial powers before Canadian Press Staff Writer the --- is brought hom Malaysia Ready for Worst Khanh Back in Saigon Accord in Charlottetown Kennedy gets Nominati Malaysia prepared for the worst toward the end of the week in its long, bitter dispute with Indonesia. The prime minister, Tunku Abdul Rah- man, announced a state of emergency Friday while vio- lence flared in Singapore, the country's. largest city. Rahman said there are '"'in- dications of Indonesian prepa- rations to mount a big offen- sive."' Malaysia asked for an immediate meeting of the United Nations Security Coun- cil but, in New York, UN sources said Tuesday was probably the earliest day the matter could be taken up. Tension mounted in mid- week with a claim by the Malaysian. government that Indonesian paratroops had landed on the Malay Penin- sula. The Indonesian foreign ministry denounced this claim as a bid to gain world sym- pathy. KHANH IN. CHARGE Gen. Nguyen Khanh re- turned to Saigon Thursday to resume direction of South Viet Nam's harassed govern- ment. Bac k from a five-day retire- ment in the mountains, he had strong United States backing and also appeared to have the support of most of the cabi- net, military leaders and the Buddhist hierarchy. However, Defence Minister Tran Thien Khiem, a Roman Catholic, resigned Friday, declaring he had "'had enough of the Budd- hists running the country." Later, Khanh announced he had. accepted the resignations of all cabinet ministers who are army officers. ANOTHER STEP Canada moved a step closer toward full authority over its own constitution when Prime Minister Pearson and the pre- miers of all 10 provinces agreed at their Charlottetown conference Wednesday that the constitution must be re- patriated without delay. Justice Minister Favreau will call a conference of pro- vincial attorneys general soon to work out details of a formula by which the con- stitution, the British North America Act of 1867, can be amended in Canada rather than by the British Parlia- ment. THATCHER BITTER De spite the unanimous agreement on the principl eof repatriation, there was some bickering. After the confer- ence ended, Premier Thatcher of Saskatchewan blamed Que- bec for blocking immediate final action by seeking to ex- tt Quebec persists in its present course," he said, "It will cause real trouble when the attorneys-general meet to discuss the formula." However, Pearson and Pre- mier Robarts of Ontario pre- dicted final agreement by the end of the year, making it possible for provincial legisla- tures to take up enabling leg- islation at their next sessions. Canada is the only Com- monwealth country still un- able to amend its constitution without reference to London. At Charlottetown Premier Robischaud of New Bruns- wick revived the idea of Mar- itime union, the idea that in- spired the 1864 Charlottetown conference. He assured Te- porters he was serious. 'It just might be advantageous to amalgamate." KENNEDY ON MOVE Robert Kennedy, a younger brother of the late president, was the New York state Dem- ocratic party's overwhelming choice Tuesday as its candi- date for U.S. senator in the Nov. 3 elections. He opened his campaign bright and early the next morning, appearing before thousands of voters at the Fulton Fish Market and the Staten Island ferry in New York City. Both he and the Republican incumbent, Sen- ator Kenneth Keating, ap- peared at the state Afl-CIoO convention in bids for labor's endorsation. Kennedy got it. On Thursday Kennedy flew to Washington to resign as attorney-general. COMMUNIST RUPTURE The Italian Communist | the | Communist bloc, Friday pub- | party, largest outside lished a virtual 'declaration of independence It had been written by party leader Palmior Togliatti, a | few hours before his death in | Russia last, month.

Soviet heads of government was Konrad Adenauer's visit to Moscow in 1955. DEBATE STILL ON The Pearson: government narrowly missed a humiliat- ing defeat Thursday as Can- ada's flag debate droned on. With the help of seven Credi- tiste and one Social Credit member, it turned back 84 to 69 a New Democratic motion to adjourn debate. The debate, in which there have been 163 speeches so far, resumes Tuesday. ATHENS WORRIED In the Cyprus crisis, fric- tion developed _ between Greece and the Greek-Cypriot government. Greek Premier Papandreou complained of Cypriot President Makarios making moves without con- sulting Athens and Makarios sent his foreign minister, Spyros Kyprianou, to the Greek capital for talks Fri- day. day. In Ankara Thursday, Turk- ish President Inonu said his country is. willing to accept the notion of a federal state in. Cyprus. As matters stood now, "the Cyprus question is advancing toward a war be- tween Greece and us."

A mob of teen-age girls saw It. When the Beatles got in pos plane, I walked up ~ to the lobby. by the vice on "Ringo touched ps screamed: him." SAME RITUAL The girl touched my arm and shrieked as if she had put her finger in an open light socket. Soon girls by the score touched me. All. went through the same shrieking ritual, One girl noticed some notes | in my hand. They included Ringo's answers to my ques- tions. "You mean you recorded what Ringo said?" asked the girl pleadingly. I gave her the notes. She couldn't have been happier with a mink coat, But not for long. About 20 girls pounced on her and tore the notes to shreds, Each girl seemed happy with a little scrap of paper. A couple of the girls asked for. my autograph. 'Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!" I shrieked, I signed autographs for a min- ute or two and then someone yelled that the plane was taxiing to the runway. The girls, en masse, fled to the other side of the lobby. SEEN ON TV I figured that was the end of my minor fame. It wasn't I went home. One of the neighborhood girls had seen me on a te newsreel. She came to the house with a half - dozen of her. girl friends, The same touch, the same shriek. The same ques- tions. Then a radio newscaster quoted a line I had used about the Beatles--that they are the only performers in the his- tory of show business who make a $1,000,000 a year for letting the audience entertain them. That brought phone calls-- hundreds of them--all from girls whose voices put them in the eight-to-l4 group. "Does Ringo really look that sad?" "Is Paul McCart- ney really that cute?" John Lennon really mar- ried?" "Is George Harrison funny?" In a rock 'n' roll beat, I "Is.
