Yugoslavian Woman Is Purdue Student An attractive woman, responsible for livestock production on a government-owned farm in her native Yugoslavia, is studying Amer* ican dairy production methods at Purdue University.' She is Miss Nevenka Stefanac of Zagreb, who is enrolled in Purdue’s winter short course, specializing in dairy production. Miss Stefanac has been in the United States since last December as a student observer under the international cooperation administration. "I'm here to observe livestock farming methods and see how we can apply them to production problems at the Lika state farm where I work,’’ explained Miss Stefanac. On completion of her eight-Week course at Purdue, she will spend approximately three weeks visiting Hoosier beef and dairy farms. Later, she will continue her study and observation at the University of Missouria and Pennsylvania State College before,. returning to, Yugoslavia in April. For having studied English only a few months and that being completly self-taught. Miss Stefanac speaks with surprising coherency—and understands equally well. Seconding this are two of her instructors, D. L. Hill and B. W. Crowl. Purdue dairy scientists, who both add that she also is an intelligent, hard-working student. Speaking of the farm on which she works, Miss Stefanac explained that “Lika” is one of many scattered throughout the country. It is situated in northwestern Yugoslavia, south of Zagreb, capital of Croatia. The farm is 100 acres.' fully-mechanized and specialized for beef and dairy production. In addition to Brown Swiss, a dual purpose meat and milk Samanthal breed is found on the farm.* "The state-operated farms are the county’s largest, but by no means the most numerous,” said Miss Stefanac. “Small private farms averaging 16 acres dominate the agricultural picture. Through government regulation, these farms may not exceed 20 acres, and any amount above this maximum is sold to the State.” "Production oi? these farms lags farm behind our state farms, mainly because the individual farmer can not afford the equipment and fertilizer needed to increase the land’s productivity lew* el,” she added. “As a partial corganizations, which own and supply machine power to their members, have been formed.” Born on a private farm, Miss Stefanac attended the Agricultural Faculty (college) in Zagreb. Upon graduation in 1950' she taught high school agriculture' for five years and then acted as county agent in the area around Zagreb until her appointment to the state farm in 1957 SBtepM ADMITTED Mrs.-Charles Berning, Decatur; Mrs. Homer Goodin, Decatur; Frank Strickler, Decatur.

Four Highway Measures Pass House Monday INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — Four bills comprising the backbone of an eight-bill Indiana highway reform program designed’to prevent future road scandals were passed by the House Monday. The bills, which originated in the Senate, were amended slightly by the House and require concurrence in the Senate before they go to Governor’ Handley for his signature. It was part of a package of measures passed previously by the Senate and aimed at tightening procedures where laxness permitted scandals in the administration of former Gov. George N. Craig, resulting in the indictment of several prominent; persons on conspiracy, eYnbezzlement and bribery charges. All four bills 'passed unanimously, just as tbqy fed in the Senate earlier. They-tighten controns on renting of Highway equipment, publication of information on right-of-way purchases, keeping of inventories of equipment and determining priorities highway and bridge construction. “We have just helped the minority correct shortcomings in the previous administration,” Rep. William Herring (D-Linton) said after the bills passed. The issue of supplemental unemployment benefits remained unresolved after the Monday session in the House. The House passed 84-10 a bill to legalize SUB, but the bill was the Democratic version which calls for pooled benefit funds, in contrast to the Republican version calling for individual SUB accounts. The bill now goes back to the Senate, where it undoubtedly will be assigned to a conference committee. For the second time in successive legislative days, a bill to abolish capital punishment failed to pass in the House. There were 42 votes (for and 47 against but both sides lacked a constitutional majoritvof 51 votes to assure passage or adfeat. Rep. Walter Maehling (D-Terre introduced . a ..concurrent resolution in the House asking the Indiana Legislative Advisory Study Commission to appoint a four-member bipartisan committee to check into the availability of abandoned or unused facilities

Rock And Roll Music Spread Is Assailed WASHINGTON (UPD — Congree was urged today to do its bit to curb the spread of rock and roll music. Rep. Torbert H. MacDonald CDMass.) charged that a new post office policy is subsidizing “the purveyors of this musical nonsense.” Unless the Post Office Department has the "good sense” to change the policy, he said, Congress should write a law revising it. MacDonald attacked a ruling last Aug. 1 which made all phonograph records eligible for lower postal rates as fourth-class mail. This was 'possible under a law passed by Congress last year. MacDonald said, however, the law was intended to cover educational material and not all-types of music. A Post Office Department spokesman said the department had “no alternative” because “we’re merely carrying out the law as set by Congress.” The congressman leveled his attack in a speech prepared for delivery to the House today. Advance copies were made public Monday night. He said he’s always been told that performers such as Elvis Presley and Jerry Lee L.ewis have “an adverse effect” on education of teen-agers. -“Putting such immortal rock and roll classics as 'ltchy Twitchy Feeling’, ‘Honey Comb’. ‘Stagger Lee’, and ‘Splish Splash' in the same category as the recordings of Bach, Brahms and i Beethoven, et al, is a horrible perversion of the intent of Congress,” he said. MacDonald, a 41-year-old father of four, said a glance at the titles of popular records makes it obvious they serve no educational purpose. “Certainly we should not give the purveyors of this musical nonsense a subsidy in mailing these records to our children,” he said, for the care of dsetitute persons who are aged or mentally deficient, Maehling said he had Camp Atterbury in mind.
