The Commodores had little difficulty in defeating an old rival, Monroeville, in the opener this week. The Commodores bid well to be reckoned with in the county tourney and also next spring's sectional. Coach Lindahl is in his second year as Commodore mentor and the Commie fans have a high regard/ for his ability. We wish him the greatest possible success this year and we are sure he will have it. o o-~-A regrettable incident occurred in Decatur Friday night when a local police officer was arrested for public intoxication. Police Chief James Borders, after interviewing the suspect, filed charges with the board of works and safety and also ordered the officer arrested on a charge of pub--14 intoxication The charge was approved by Prosecutor Lewis L. Smith. The officer has been suspended until a board of works and safety hearing is held Thftirsday. We could go on at length explaining that this incident is the exception rather than the rule, but conduct of our policemen. all of them, speaks itself. They are known to be courteous with conduct without reproach. Chief Borders does a good job of managing the toughest duty in the city and the incident does not reflect on him or other members of the department.

The people also want to know what he plans to do to curb the depression and plan for the well being of everyone.

Many are comparing that Republican administration with the present one. Big business, high taxes and the like ruled then, as they do now. o o— Election results in New York city and New Jersey point to an overwhelming Democratic trend in' the east. Many cities and towns in several eastern states voted Democratic mayors into office. Mayor Wagner of New York won by more than a half million votes and Governor Meyner of New Jersey .defeated Eis-enhower-Nixon endorsed state senator Forbes by more than 150,000 in what was supposed to be a tight race, as Republican controlled eastern newspapers saw it. The American people want action. They want relief from the present depression. They want fearless leadership which will speak out. This is no time to use the old Hoover phrase of “prosperity is just around the corner.” As a people we Want ttW leaders who will bring us that prosperity. Republican efforts to confuse the New York and New Jersey Negroes proved futile. The elections everywhere were a peoples’ demand for good honest progressive government. The trend no doubt will continue until there is a complete change.

High Blood Pressure Attack Being Urged All-Out Scientific Attack Is Suggested By DELOS SMITH United Press Science Editor NEW YORK (UP)-A head-on scientific attack on all the medical problems of high blood pressure has been proposed by a noted blood pressure expert, on the grounds that if those problems were solved, scores of lives would be saved every year. Dr. I. McD. G. Stewart spoke especially of blood pressures which are high but not so high they have caused any damage (yet) or produced any sense of ill in the persons who contain them. The lives of many of these persons could be prolonged, he said. He made the following statements as facts: 1) death or disability are produced by the damage excessive blood pressure produces in arteries and veins, and not by excessive blood pressure itself; 2) a reduction of blood pressure "can delay or arrest" this damage; 3) “a relatively slight” reduction might be enough in most people. Blocks Nerve Centers Right now medical science throughout the world is employing an effective blood - pressure reducing weapon in the form of chemicals which “blocks nerve centers of the sympathetic nervous system. But this weapon is employed only in persons whose blood pressure is extremely excessive or has been excessive for so long, that life-shortening damage has been done. In these severely ill persons, many of whom have reached the "malignant” high blood pressure stage and so are at death's door, these chemical weapons have produced wonders in lowering pressures, keeping them down, and so prolonging life. Dr. Stewart said they had been proven “potent, practical, and reasonably predictable.” Then why not use them in all persons with only moderately elevated blood pressure—since life insurance statistics show that ”any sustained rise of arterial pressure occurring short of old age, particularly in men, presents a grave long - term threat.” There Are two main reasons why not, he said. One is a lack of

SYNOPSIS Deborah Vari, an acucss unengaged at the moment, was driving from LonUud to Gamut'k, Scotland, to visit & married cousin. Joyce Monteith. Near Garnock. during the stormy svening, she was stopped by a flat tire. The occupant of the house where she sought aid obviously didn’t want visi* tors. He. Andrew Garvin, told her he didn't have a phone. But when he left her alone to fix the tire. • phone rang. Deborah answered it "Get out and stay out!" an angry voice demanded. You're not wanted here!” Then, while satisfying her curiosity about the nouse, her attention waa arrested by a brutish face curing at her through a window. There was no explanation ot these Happenings from Garvin when be eent her on her way. She was given one when she reached Joyce Monteith a house. Joyce branded Garvin the murderer of his wife. Deborab could not believe It The two women almost came to blows, but Joyce s husband. Ewan made peace between them and told Deborah of Andrew Garvin's marriage to Erica, a lovely, lazy, social climber with questionable morals. Erl S? dead m bed. beaten on the head, late one afternoon. The murder weapon was missing. While driving her cousin on a round ot errands. Deborah finds Garvin under attack of a mob. She rescuee him end gets little thanks for her efforts. She pries from him the Whereabouts of the maid *ho discovered bis wife e body. CHAPTER 9 rr STOOD close to the road. A low-roofed cottage ot whitewashed stone with outbuildings of rugged appearance. A sign on the gate, unevenly lettered by an amateur hand, proclaimed: Wm. MANSON As Deborah pushed open the gate a buxom, middle-aged woman with flour on her muscular bare forearms and an apron round her middle came to the open door and looked out with an authoritative eye. ••Annie?” she repeated, when Deborah inquired for the giri. "And whit wld ye be wantin' wi’ her?” “I understand she worked for the Garvins.” "Aye, that she did,” said the woman, pursing her lips. "And got her held filled wi’ nonsense. Lipstick an’ gaddin’ about an 1 nae respeck for onybody.” "Oh, Mother,” said a voice from within the cottage. The fresh face of a girl in the late teens looked out over the woman's brawny shoulder. "Dinna "Oh Wither’ me," said the woman- “1 ken whit I’m talkin’ aboot. It’s bad enow, bringin’ up lassies these days, withoot a red-haired hussy pittin’ waur ideas in their lieids.” Grudgingly, she edged her bulk to let her daughter pass. Mistrusting Deborah’s elegance and self-possession, and her ’Englishy’ accent, she remained within earshot while her daughter conversed with the stranger. ”1 shan't keep you; but there's

knowledge of how the agents work in healthy bodies against blood pressure that is high but not very high. New toniroi Studies This is knowledge which medical science needs, and which it can obtain only in massive “controlled” studies everywhere of the effects of the chemical agents in more-or-less normal persons. But at this point Dr. Stewart encountered his major difficulty, and that big difficulty is people generafly. Mention blood pressure (if you are a doctor) to the average person and the mere mention of the subject increases his blood pressure. If you’re going to have a “controlled” study of the chemical weapons in persons whose blood pressures are not elevated by very much, you'll have to have their cooperation because you’d have to measure their pressures repeatedly for a few weeks. And so you'd have to tell these persons their blood pressures. Dr. Stewart said he was against telling patients their blood pressures as of now, but if the blood pressure problems were solved, "The whole climate of professional and private opinion” might

something 1 a use to asK.” “Yes, miss?” “I’m afraid it’s about the murder.” “Oh.” The girl looked disappointed. She nad hoped this attractive stranger would offer a position. "That's all anyone talks about” “1 expect it gets you down. Now, about the errand your mistress sent you on—the one that kept you away all day.” “Oh, that? That was only an excuse to get me out of the way,” said Annie Manson frankly. “Every so often she'd send me to Dumfries for something 1 could have got as well at Garnock. When I came back it would be easy seen that she'd had a visitor while I was gone. One she didn’t want me to know about.” “A man?” "Yes, miss." "Always the same man?" “I don't think so. I couldn’t say for sure. On those occasions 1 never saw the caller. Except once, when 1 got a lift instead of coming by bus, and was back early. And then 1 only saw a gentleman driving off in his car.” “What did ne look like?" “I’ve no idea, miss. 1 was a good way oft. I could Just make out that It was a man. The car was one of those sports models, like the master’s Jaguar." “Was it usual for your mistress to be in pajamas at one in the afternoon ?” “Not as a rule, miss. Usually she was dressed by noon and off to Garnock or Dumfries for lunch." “I want to get one point quite clear,” said Deborah. “Annie, you're certain Mrs. Garvin was expecting a jailer?” “Oh, yes, miss. I’d come to know the drill, as the saying goes.” After thanking the girl and her mother, Deborah walked back to her car. It was long after lunchtime when she returned to Birch Drive. There was an apology on the tip of her tongue but her cousin would not listen. “Joyce,” said Deborah gently. An indignant sniff and a reproving glance was the only answer. “I’m sorry,” said Deborah. “You’re not sorry a bit,” said Joyce. “I was never so humiliated. How could you make such an exhibition of yourself? In an hour It was al! over Garnock that you drove slap into a crowd, knocking down half a dozen people, to rescue Andrew Garvin." “1 didn’-t knock down anyone.” “No, you didn't More by good

That lecture now is being widely discussed among American medical scientists. n -x, Household Scrapbook BY ROBERTA Lil O - ■ 4 Jelly Making Before pouring the paraffin into the glass of jelly or jam, place a piece of string across the top, allowing the two ends to project.

My cousin, the glamorous actress Now what will they think?” “Probably that I did it for publicity." "Don’t Joke. It isn’t funny. Everyone was dying to meet you. The Amateur Dramatic Society wanted you to direct their next play. I haven’t had time to tell you ot all the invitations to lunch and tea.” "And now I’ve blotted my copybook. Shall 1 pack my things and leave tn disgrace?” •’Darling,’’ said Joyce reproachfully, "you know I'm on your side, I’m all for you. Only . . well, you do make it difficult And then, there’s the Maclnches They’re bound to have neard.” “And just who are the MacInches? You speak the name almost with awe. Ought I to make a low bow?” “They’re the only ’County’ people we know. Hector is a Q. C. and very wealthy. Judith, his wife, is a dear. They live tn Edinburgh but spend/ as much time as possible at their country house near Garnock.

Oh! 1 meant to tell you when I came in—l've talked to the giri who used to be the Garvins' maid.” “1 don't want to hear about it,” said Joyce, stiffening again. "On the day she was killed, Erica Garvin expected a male caller. Doesn’t that suggest a few possibilities? A lover, tired of her, perhaps, who couldn't be rid of her except by—" •T tell you, I’m not Interested.” "Oh, very well” Rising, Deborah said, ”1 think I’ll put the car away. It’s time I learned where it goes. Where did Ewan put it last night?” “In the old coachhouse. You’ll see it at the end of the garden. There's loads ot room.” As she went out by the front door, Deborah heard a metallic clicking somewhere to the rear of the place. Steering her car slowly round the curving, moss-grown drive, she saw a man perched on a ladder, pruning a tall hedge with a pair of clippers.

Homemaker's Work Is Toughest Task Terms Occupation World's Toughest By GAY PAULEY United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK (UP>—Some free advice today to all those millions of women whose occupation is "just a housewife.” Take a new look around you. People in high places ate beginning to recognize that most of you hold not one but several dozen jobs. So start promoting. Shed your shrinking violet complex. Discard your Ironing board slouch, throw your shoulders back in pride. Brag about, don't deride, your "career.'’ The newest friend in the housewife's camp is Mrs. Katherine B. Oettinger, chief of the U.S. Children's Bureau, and homemaker also. She chides all of us for looking down our noses at contributions on the stay-at-home wife ... even suggested she should be paid, just as the 22 million women in outside jobs are reimbursed. “So many mothers feel guilty if they do work,” Mrs. Oettinger told a recent National Manpower Conference at Harriman, N.Y. "But though this is sometimes forgotten, so many feel guilty if they do not.” World’s Hardest Jeb The time has come for the “world to eiftance the status of

the homemaker,” she said. "The lack of respect and recognition for one of the hardest jobs in the world is so familiar it needs no documentation.” Mrs. Oettinger told of one mother of three, who decided to take an outside job until she learned the cost of sending the children to a day care center. She found her salary would just about pay the tab. She decided not to take the job and commented. ”1 didn't think I was worth ANYTHING at home.” Mrs. Oettinger said perhaps the way to "enhance” the status of “just a housewife” is "the one often suggested but seldom taken seriously ... to grant some pecuniary recognition to the mother who works IN the home." Well, I’ve been counting all the jobs the housewife holds and much as I agree with Mrs. Oettinger, there is a big hitch. Who would pay her salary? Hubby? The family budget might cover her earnings as a domestic, at the going rate of $1 to $1.50 an hour. But foot the bill for her work as family doctor, nurse, management expert, financial whiz, fashion advisor, and you’re in the big money. High Salary For Mrs. One home economist, Frances Sanderson of Wayne State University, Detroit estimated this week that Mrs. Housewife would qualify as a $20.000-a-year worker on the open job market. Count the additional jobs. She is scientist < experimenting with cooking), dietitian, child psychologist, hostess, laundress, teacher, interior decorator, baby * sitter,

carpanter, errand boy* and chauffeur. She is the family shoppera job which alone would drive the average purchasing agent to resignation. AU this, and she is the patient wife, who tolerates the husband coming home at the end of the day with the comment; "WeU, what have YOU done all day?" One housewife recently answered, “Everything. Twelve times.”
