admitted. “But women have
been known to change their
minds.”
Indeed they have. And it was
evident from the glow in Patty’s
eyes that she was not trying to
put over a hoax on a gullible
reporter. She happily reported
the facts:
Her husband to-be is Harry G.
Falk Jr., 32, a production aide
on “The Trials of O’Brien” which
stars Peter Falk, no relation. He
is a New Yorker whose parents
live in Brooklyn; Harry Sr. is a
set worker on “Candid Camera.”
Harry Jr. has been married and
divorced, no children.
How did Patty meet her fi
ance ?
“Harry worked on the Patty
Duke show during the first sea
son,” the TV star explained. “I
had this mad crush for him and
everybody knew about it. Harry,
too. But I was still a kid to him;
I was only 16.”
Falk moved to the ill-fated
“Reporter” last year, and he and
Patty sometimes dated or attend
ed parties on either of the shows.
Patty turned 18 and was no long
er a kid.
Last summer, Patty moved
west to make the movie, “Billie,”
and to begin the filming of her
third TV season. Harry remained
in New York, but that didn’t in
terrupt their courtship.
Patty hopes for another two
years of the TV series. She is
committed for a pair of movies

A&M To Provide Attraction

en feel the trials should end be
cause most of the major crimi
nals already have been brought
to justice.
“The young people seem to
have a desire to purge the Ger
man conscience through continu
ation of war trials,” Dietz said.
The 21-year old Dietz traveled
approximately 3,500 miles
throughout northern Europe and
was impressed with the extent
of prosperity there.
“When you see the economic
prosperity, you wonder how there
could ever be another war,” he
said. “The attitude in northern
Europe is one of optimism and
enlightened self interest. The
people are willing to involve
themselves and are producing
high quality goods.”
Dietz was impressed at the
large number of American girls
traveling in Europe.
“You have to admire them for
being able to get along without
the comforts of American cul
ture,” he remarked. “They have
inquisitive minds. Of our group
of 320 students, 240 were girls.”
European students are better
organized than their American
counterparts, Dietz contends.
“They have student hostels for
75 cents to $1 a night, student
restaurants where food is cheap,
and discount cards for theaters,
museums and other things,” he
said.
Dietz did most of his traveling
on a $130 Eurail pass, good for
trains, boats on Swiss lakes, a
Rhine steamer and a hyrdrofoil.
Texas A&M is one of 211 uni
versities included in “A Guide to
Graduate Study: Programs Lead
ing to the Ph.D. Degree”, a 600-
page book published by the
American Council on Education.
The clothbound book went on
sale Monday by the ACE.
Three pages are devoted to
A&M’s fields of study for the
Ph.D. requirements, fees and fin
ancial aid, and history of the
Graduate College.
