Scientists Hope To Eliminate Ticks

Find 2 Compounds That May Repel Bug

By PAUL F. ELLIS United Press Science Writer NEW YORK, Aug. 27—Science is now turning its guns on the tick, those insects that burrow under man's skin and sometimes infect him with Rocky mountain spotted fever. This new attack by science is being delivered by James M. Brennan, entomologist of the United States public health service. Already, has resulted in discovery of — chemical compounds that appear to offer promise as tick repellents. These compounds are both jaw{breakers to pronounce. Technically,

ithey are known as phenylcyclohex-|

nol and butyacetanilide. As of now, there are no adopted abbreviated names for these compounds. Mr. Brennan and his associates! at the Rocky mountain laboratory

have unwittingly encouraged the icorruption of elections by dumping nto the coffers of the Ostrom gang Is staggering sums of money that lits use for strictly legitimate purposes would be practically impos{sible,” Mr. Feeney said. “When any group finds it neces |sary, as my opponent's backers did, {to spend more than $50,000 to {nominate a candidate and boasts {that they will spend whatever is {necessary to take over the admin|istration of our city government, | there is something rotten in In- | dianapolis,” he said.

campaign he will discuss the “vital|
