In a recent nation-wide poll, j American parents voted that it would be much better to increase j teachers’ wages than to build new , buildings. The poll was a Trendex poll and is considered reliable. ’ o__ o More candidates are announc- i ing almost daily in the approach- i ing Democratic primary election, i It appears tiow that this county i would have some spirited con- J tests for several offices. o-— oThe ice melting compound placed on streets and roads during the winter weather is harmful to automobile tires and finishes j and many fentiers are worn corn- i pletely through in one winter’s I time. Best advice we've found is j to wash the fenders off abput once every week or ten days With ; clean water. That takes a lot of the accumulated compound off j with it and generally gives your I car a’little longer life. IrTandther -month, politics and national issues will be forgotten temporarily in Indiana and everyone will be talking basketball as the contest for a state high i school champion gets underway in every county in Indiana. The mad race wifi last for four or five weeks until one team is declared the champion. It's a great time of the year and the beauty i of the Indiana system is that §v- i cry team has the same opportun- [ ity. There are no classes. Every team starts from scratch and goes until it is eliminated. ——o— —o— — During the New’ Year holiday, the state, of Connecticut was the only state in the union ttLjgo §4 hours without a traffic fatality. In that state there has been a constant and relentless war against speeders and reckless drivers. There have been “left of center" releases without an investigation and all motorists have been treated the same, “very tough." The system has paid off in number of lives saved and it might be an example for all states to follo.w.

Atomic Anxiety Os World Complicated Critical Fall-Out Dissolves In Water By DELOS SMITH United Press Science Editor NEW YORK (UP)To complicate further the atomic anxiety overhanging the world, twd reI search scientists have demonstrat:ed an extraordinary attraction of i algae for Cesium-137. Cesium-137 is a radioactive iso- ■ tope of the rare metallic element ! and is one of the critical products [in the fall-out from atomic bomb 1 explosions and of the waste products of atomic power reactors. It is critical because it» alf- ! life is 26.6 years and because it i dissolves in water. Thus, water (contaminated with Cesium-137 I would be likely to remain contami inated for a long time. • Algae Cleans Water Louis G. Williams of Furman University, Greenville, S.C.. and 'H. D. Swanson of the University lof Tennessee, Knoxville, tested the I ability of algae to decontaminate I Cesium-137 contaminated water. | The species of algae, ’ Eugtena j Intermedia, did this job spectacularly In 34 days, the water was 96 per cent decontaminated. In ; only six days the degree of contamination was reduced by 69 per • cent. They also experimented with the •algae species, Chlorella Pyrenoiclosa. and found Jt..less effective* ' but still quite effective. In 13 ! days- it reduced contamination-by j 47 per cent. This indicated that some algae species are more at- : tractive to Cesium-137 than others. , Tests Not Conclusive The experiments were under laboratory conditions, of coursein the Oak- Ridge National Atomic Laboratory at Oak Ridge, Tenn, land at this stage are not related !to chance meetings under natural i conditions of Cesium-137, and al'gae growing in streams and ponds. It would seem that this demoni stration of algae's affinity for Cesium-137 should lessen the • atomic anxiety of 'mankind; Where [there is water therfvis algae and water is susceptible to contamination by Cesium - 137 originating I (from fall-outs and the operation of atomic power reactors? [ But algae is food for fish — it [ is the' base of the food pyramid I e . . . .. — ... •

' ll *Smpke, what are you thinking about?” Cord would have told her, but I couldn't -be bold like that. I could only conie up With a halftruth. "I guess I think about you most of the time, Julie.” “That’s hardly fair to you, Smoke. I don't think'of you all the time.” “I know thatA-L-said - “I guessI ain't much, compared to Cord." She turned sideways in her • rocker. “Smoke, dbn't ever compare yourself with t’ord. .You love me, don't-you?” "Yes,” 1 admitted, “but I've never mentioned it before.” “You didn't have to.” Julie said. “I knew, Smoke, but I dida-t want to let on that I knew. I never wanted a weapon that was capable'of hurting you.". ;. “What weapon?” I didn't kftow what she was talking about. “When you love me, you give me the power to hurt you. I never, wanted that power, but. you forced it on me.’*’ “That's all right,” I told her. ■ “I’ll take the chanceT* “It's not all riglif!’’ fief sharpness came as a surprise, then she \made her vntw soft again. “I wish I Could say that I love you, Smoke, but I don't think you'd want me to say it if I wasn't —-.suro." “I guess it’s Cord you love,” I said “It 'sort ot figures.” "Rove him? I don't think so. Yet there's an excitement about him that I’ve never found, in another man. He s like a wild horse, Smoke. Very handsome and very dangerous and there's always that challenge there, asking you to try and tame him. You may know that others have tried and failed, but pride, being whfft it is, convinces you that you might be the one to succeed.” She looked at me, then out for my hand. “Smoke. I don’t love him. I’m just - fascinated by him." ' t “I guess that settles that.” I said. “I sure ain't very -fascinatin'." s “You aren’t your own man either,” she said bluntly.

How should the invitations be worded when the bride is a young widow? A. They should be issued in the name of her parents, just as the invitations to her first wedding were.

When I got up and stepped i past her, she said, “Looks like i I’ve said too much.” I “It’s been aplenty.” "i —h»nd—etrme out and ‘ held : me. "Smoke, I'm sorry. But you wanted the truth, didn't vou?” The truth or a lie? What was the difference ?

When I turned her loose, she ;stood there looking a little bewildered. I had tint whiyd up tHert and really spouted off. "Is that what you want ? A tot of bruises that you can admire in front 'pt your mirror after a buggy rid*? Hell, you "don't have to go to Cord if that’s what you-’rc-after." I grabbed my ■ hat and stomped ..off the porch, pausing in the yard. "And you want to know something else ? You got nothing - a—»hhV4-fight—over. I've seen, reservation squaws tharJciss a lot better.” “ This f last w:i«f a bald-faced lie if I ever told one, but I was mad, along with being confused and wishing I had a double-jointed leg so I could clout myself.

Combined Drugs For Benefit Os Allergic Promising Approach To Medical Problem By DELOS SMITH United Press Science Editor ’ NEW YORK <UPI - Medical science has combined body-mind drugs for the benefit of the allergic. One drug is intended for the relief, of an allergic attack and the other is used to relieve j anxiety which goes along with an j allergic attack. It is a promising approach to a medical problem like the problem j of which came first, the chicken i : or the egg? Some scientists argue ‘ j that anxiety often comes before I ’ the allergic attack and thus is its | ! cause. Other scientists feel the! i attack produces the anxiety | which makes it worse. Drs. Earl B. Brown and Thom-: as Seideman of New York's Mon- ■ ; tefiora Hospital tested the com-; ■ bined drugs by the scientifically favored ‘double - blind” tech- , nique in 97 allergic patients who : ranged in age from nine years to i :76. Combination Used The combination was of the' synthetic hormone, prednisolone, j which is a standard drug for the, relief of allergic attacks, with, hydroxyzine which is one of the I newer of the ‘'tranquilizing” ! drugs. The 97 men. women, and chil-. : dren were in need of medicine to ! control a variety of allergic con- . ditions from asthma and rhinitis p runny nose allergy) to hives. The asthma and rhinitis subjects | were in the big majority.* The doctors divided identical , vials into four groups. Into one ■ 1 group they put a week's supply j lof the combined drugs Into a second and third group they put I \ the hormone alone and the tran- i quilizer alone. In the fourth they put an inert substance, a placebo, i which, chemically, should have no effect whatever. All were in tablet form and looked alike.

The doctors, In their report to the American Academy of Allergy, said they had some indications that the tranquilizer might permit small doses of prednisolone to be as effective as large I ones. They're now investigating I that possibility.
