Inside, men have been painting, and filling the pool with water. That operation is now complete, and the water is warming up so that the “small fry 6 wbn’t turn blue when -they jump in. ' - Minor trouble with the filtering system, which made the wter rusty, have been conquered by Hubert Zerkel, Jr., and John Rosier, who will manage the pool this sumJher. Special arrangements are being formulated to open the pool, two night&a week for adults only, if the adults so desire. The pool will open Thursday. ar ♦ . . The Sonic Boom Decatur residents have been very much aware of the loud glass-rattling explosions that occur when a jet aircraft breaks the sonic barrier, or flies faster than sound, in the area of Decatur. Since last winter the frequency of such sonic shocks has increased. Monday Mrs. John Heffner, of 940 Walnut street, was doing her washing about 9:40 in the morning when her house was shaken by a sonic boom. Immediately afterward she heard something falling. and when she went into her bedroom, she saw plaster on the floor. Behind the dresser a spot of plaster about half as large as your head had fallen to the floor. This is the first case of sonic damage we have heard about in Decatur. There may be others. This is another sign of the times in which we live. No one will object to a little shaking of the windows or falling plaster when he realizes that the only alternative is constant fear of falling bombs and atomic death. It is another of modern things we must learn to live with. Like TV, government regulations, roadside signs, house trailers, home swimming pools, clothes dryers, and hundreds of other things we never dreamed of a few years ago. Some of these will cause, a change in our way of living, and the adjustment period will be difficult. But the problem must be solved, not fought. The answer to tomorrow lies in progress, not the foolish dueling with windmills, or fight against progress, that characterizes those who do not, and will not, attempt to understand and . adjust. , ' ... Tomorrow can be a better place, if we want it to be, and work towards ad justing. In a new way of life. Or it can be a terrifying world that we do not understand or ' enjoy. It all depends on how we adjust to it.
