Children's Museum Daily programs for youngsters sponsored by the Children's Museum during July will continue next week, July 20-24 with a workshop on Tuesday featuring collages of sea shells. Children will be instructed in the art of making pictures and scenes using shells, and all materials will be supplied for a 10c fee. The programs begin at 11 o’clock in the assembly hall of the museum, 3010 N. Meridian. “The Age of Mammals” will be the narrated film strip to be shown Wednesday July 1. Children will see how mamals began to evolve during the time of the dinosaur, and will be able to trace the beginnings of the horse, camel, sloth, mastadon and sabre-tooth tiger to the time of man. Millinery will be featured Thursday, July 22, in the program titled “Put Your Lid On.” The fez. coolie hats, caps and head coverings of all kinds will be drawn from the museum collections to illustrate the life and customs of people from other countries. Africa will be the subject Friday, July 23, when mores, folkways and customs of the inhabitants of that continent will be described. African material from the museum collection and slides will be used to illustrate the talk given by David Cassady by the museum staff. Children will be invited to sing along on Saturday, July 24, when Marion K. Mathas will lead the program on folksinging. He will tell the history of some of the selections, and will play the guitar as accompaniment. The programs are free and all are invited to participate. There will be a program every morning in July. The museum will close in August.

Age of Uproar A “quiet evening at home?” Soothing hours of retreat from the noisy workday world? It’s a beautiful thought But for many people in these supermechanized days it’s just a wistful memory. “Today’s Health” magazine unquietly sums it up thus: “In almost any ‘quiet’ suburban home, the mixer and blender grind away in the kitchen. Dad’s power saw runs full tilt in the basement Junor shoots it out with the TV badman in the living room, while upstairs, sister plays her favorite Beatle record for the sixth time.” Not to mention the automatic cooling or heating system, ike plumbing, the occasional passing truck, plane, fire engine .. . Let’s face it, we live in an age of noise; and noise is a factor in health. U.S. industry losses about $4 billion a year in lowered production and higher accident rates due to skyrocketing decibels, office workers waste almost onefifth of their energy “just fighting noise.” A too-loud enviroment can bring on or aggravate gastrointestinal distress, allergic reactions, or migraine headache, according to Dr. Lee E. Farr of the University of Texas. Many cities now have noise abatement programs, with varying success. For the private home owner, some good do-it-yourself possbilities exist. Carpets or rugs on floors, curtains or drapes or well-filled bookcases along the walls, help to rob sound of its “bounce.” Natural noise reflectors, such as hard wall surfaces or large picture windows, should be avoided by the noise-conscious householder. Life, growing richer, isn’t likely to grow quieter. If we can’t lick noise, we might as well join it on the most livable terms.

CABLE CONSTRUCTION Indiana Bell crews have started four cable construction projects in the Indianapolis metropolitan area. Division Manager C. R. Barkman said most of the new cable ■will provide facilities for telephone growth on the east and south sides of the city and in the Greenwood area. Total cost will exceed $765,000. The biggest project will provide new underground conduit and cable along Post Road from 46th Street to Pendleton Pike, along 10th Street from Mitthoeffer to Post Road and south along Post Road to Washington Street These new facilities and related equipment in telephone buildings will pave the way for the transfer of several thousand LI. and FL. phones for service from Bell s TW. building. The transfer will be completed this fall. It will complete the regrouping of phones around the new TW. equipment building and free facilities for continue growth in the LI. and FL. areas, Barkman On the south side, new cable will be placed on Troy Avenue, from Shelby Street to Brill Road, and on Hanna Avenue, from Shelby to Meridian Street. Many of these facilities will be needed to serve new apartments and an addition at Southern Plaza shopping

center. At Greenwood, cable facilities will be added along UK 31 from County Line Road north to Stop 11 Road and along Frye and Mt Pleasant Roads. New houses are being built throughout the areas. New facilities also will be placed out to and beyond New Palestine as part of a new long distance route between Indianapolis and Rushville. Barkman said the construction work will provide the equivalent of 52,000 miles of new telephone lines to serve the metropolitan area..

ALLISON TO PROVIDE ENGINES Allegheny Airlines has announced a $10,250,000 modernization program to convert 10 of its piston-powered Convair airlines to jet-prop engines. Allison Division of General Motors will provide the engines and manage the overall conversion program. The airline becomes the third local service carrier to order the 3750-horsepower gas turbines. President Leslie O. Barnes said in his announcement from Allegheny headquarters at Washington National Airport that the new jet-prop Convair 580 will be introduced June 1.

The Allegheny president noted that “the 580 is a key element and the first step toward our introduction of pure jet service in dense, short-haul markets.” He said a progress report on these coming phases of Allegheny’s equipment program which also anticipates 18-24 passenger jetprops for better service at smaller cities, is included in the company’s 1964 annual report. This report will be distributed next week. Allegheny’s 55 passenger Convair 580 will be powered by the same Allison turbine engines which have logged over 14 million flight hours on commercial and military aircraft. These power plants will boost the Convair’s cruising speed by approximately 100 miles per hour. Its performance, in terms of elapsed travel time between cities, will be such as to equal the elapsed time of pure jet aircraft in these same markets. In addition to increased speedcapacity and operating economy, Mr. Barnes said an outstanding feature of the 580 is its potential for all weather operations. “We are equipping the 580 with a newly designed flight director and autopilot electronic gear which will enable it to take maximum advantage of the all weather ianding systems now being developed.” “Additionally, all the communications and navigation equipment aboard the aircraft will be of the latest solid state design. This equipment package is comparable to that being installed on newly delivered large jet aircraft The cost of this package alone represents a larger investment than that in many airplanes still in active commercial service. Ultimately this investment will pay dividends in improved reliability and lower operating costs.” Pacific Airmotive Corporation at Burbank, Calif., will perform the modification work.
