Dionne Quints Make Eyebrows Beauty
At Eighteen Are Still Sheltered
CORBELL, Ontario, The Dionne quintuplets graduated from school and celebrated their 18th birthdays' recently 'but Papa Oliva Dionne showed no signs of letting the girls break out from the cocoon that has chaltered them from the outside world since their birth.
Technically, the girls now are old enough to marry with their parents permission but there was no indication that any was planning to move away.
Visitors were kept carefully outside the wire fence around the home and the quints father carefully censored all informa- tion about them. '
He said he gave the girls matching rels, rhinestone neck- laces, bracelets and earrings but would not say what other gifts they had received.
