They are members of the Parsi sect, believed to number about 115,000 throughout the world, with the major body of at least 75,000 in Bombay. Their forefathers migrated to India from Persia in the year Parsis (also spelled Parsees) founder of the original Persian religion. They believe in. after- life and the ultimate victory of good over evil. Their temples house sacred perpetual flames, Prominent among present-day Parsis are the Tatas, who started India's first textile mill and now are national leaders in textiles, steel, nuclear research and scores of other fields. An air service started as a Tata subsidiary later became Air In- dia, the country's international airline. BELONGED TO SECT Other Parsis include M. R. Masani, prominent member of Parliament, and K. R. P. Shroff, who retired this year as Indian Fire-Worshippers Among National Leaders Feroze Gandhi, late husband of Prime Minister Indira Gan- dhi, was a Parsi, Parsi girls frequently marry| Out UL Lneii viding, ie cae bees: one factor in the Parsi colony's failure to keep 'pace with India's great population growth. Another is the higher level of education given Parsi women. Like others in India who ob- tain higher education and then have trouble finding employ- ment, the Parsis have begun to look abroad. "Lots of young Parsis are go- ing to Canada," says Rashna Khambatta, 20, an Air India employee. "It offers a lot and because it is another Commonwealth country, it is easier to get there than to the United States." Unless the trend is reversed, the Parsis may in time disap- pear from Indian society. HOUSES DEAD To the outsider, the Parsis are perhaps best known for their Tower of Silence, an im- posing mountaintop structure in Bombay where the Parsi dead are taken. Aside from its beau- tifully landscaped gardens and iron gates which keep out non- believers, the tower is distin- guished by an ever - present flock of vultures soaring over- president of the Bombay Stock Exchange. head. NEW YORK (AP)--Blondes are either dumb or nice. Sandy Dennis is the nice kind. In an evil world she had a grown-up Alice in Wonderland quality.

It took Miss Dennis a decade to reach the $1,750 - a - week bracket in show business, but she had no bitter memories of her struggling years. "T enjoyed it," she said prac- tically. "I was out of work sometimes for as long as a year, so I lived on unemploy- ment insurance. It wasn't bad." As Sandy talks, she has a lit- tle-girl habit of shaking her shoulder-length, corn-tassel hair and closing her eyes. It's quite endearing. "T like making films," she said, "but I still miss the hours and habits of the theatre be- I sm more used ta them.

She prefers a quiet home life, hopes to have two crildren but says she is in no hurry for motherhood at this stage of her career. BULAWAYO, Rhodesia (AP) Canadian Peter Layhew was sitting by the roadside at a bush town in Tanzania when several Africans passed by, taunted him, and accused him of being a South African. It_riled Pete, 21, from Prince George, B.C., so he took out a pen and pad and started writing a poem in praise of Rhodesia's declaration of independence. Now the proudest souvenir he carries with him is the com- pleted poem, personally auto- "|graphed by Ian Smith, prime minister of Riodesia. Pete, nearing the end of a 16- ,| month hitch-hiking odyssey that has taken him through Eastern and Western Europe and Africa, arrived in Rhodesia in August and took the poem to Smith's office in the capital, Salisbury. "A friend suggested I take it te him and although I could not see him, his private secretary took it into his office and came out with Mr. Smith's signature at the bottom," said blonde- haired Pete. DIVERTED TRIP A former lumberjack, Pete set out on his travels in April last year. Hoping to catch the trans- Siberian train and continue to Japan and back to Canada, he spotted a travel brochure on South Africa in London and di- verted course. : He rates Rhodesia the finest country he has visited and is loaded with volumes of litera- ture and humorous car stickers like '"'Who's Wilson?" to show the folks back home.

Also the Former Lumberjack Backs Smith's Rhodesia Regime Pete has trekked through just about every country in Europe, including Communist Hungary, Czechoslovakia and East Ger- many. He worked for seven weeks at a sawmill in Sweden and saved enough money to cross to Africa through Spain and Gib- raltar. A grand tour of North Africa, including boat trips on the Nile, landed him in Sudan where he was forbidden to motor through to the southern part of the coun- try because of the violence of the civil war. TRAPPED MONKEYS In Uganda he found work trapping monkeys which were shipped to experimental labora- tories in Europe. Then he hiked to South Africa where he worked for six weeks on the state-owned railways. Itchy feet took him north again to the scenic grandeur of Rhodesia's Victoria Falls and Kariba Dam before moving on to the Portuguese East African territory of Mozambique and to Malawi. Pete now is thumbing south where he hopes to catch a ship for Montreal. Back home he intends getting employment with a company hauling winter supplies to min- ers in Grand Duke, Alaska. Pete has fixed ideas on the countries he has been through. The East Europeans, he claims, are just like the average West- erner, despite the rigors of the one-party state. His views on Rhodesia are more pronounced. He made a plea for more Canadians to visit the country and see how peace- ful it was compared with inde- pendent black African states.

Masani, noted Parsi author, in explaining how the Tower of Silence fits in with the Parsi fire worship. Masani emphasizes the living aspects of the Parsi religion. In fact, he says "I call our reli- gion the religion of 'good life.'" We have no penance, no fasting, we are concerned only with building our character.
