OLENVILLE, W. Va , (INS1 —How would you bet on a death battle between a four or fivefoot long blaek snake — body as thick as your arm — and a fairsized chicken hawk ? You put your money on the hawk? Well, you’re right, according to Simon Arnold of Glen-

i vllle.

} Arnold, a Pittsburgh and West | Virginia gas company employe, ! was attracted by a gasping | noise behind a large log. i Behind the log he found the •hicken hawk and black snake locked in a death struggle. The | snake had the hawk in its coils I but it still was able to use claws and beak. One claw was buried in the reptile’s side. A big hole had been pecked in the snake’s body. The pair evidently had been fighting ^ for at least two days. When Arnold killed the snake and thus freed the hawk, it atttacked him. He clubbed it to | death also. He said the hawk unj doubtedly would have killed the 1 snake which was practically exhausted when he arrived.

We used to get c:; ;*.-eet e; --s and travel to the eiyl of the line. We’d have a couple of frankfurters and a cup of coffee and get on the next ear or bus. We had to count every penny in those days and thus, by counting pennies and appreciating their value, we got the knack of counting dollers—and keeping a few of them.

The density of smoke coming from the stacks of large consumers is checked regularly and violations of abatement regulations subject the offender to stiff fines. Railroads and steamboats also are rigorously inspected. The advantages of smoke control far outweigh its expense. Railroads, for instance, have found that the extended use of diesel engines is much cheaper and more efficient than the exclusive use of steam locomotive- . Industry found that in addition to the large savings resulting from more efficient use of fuel smoke eliminating devices trap many saleable chemicals which i formerly were discharged into i

ERICH BRAN DEIS One of the things that makes writing this column such a pleasure is the fact that my readers seem to consider me a friend and write me so many personal let-

PITTSBURGH (UP) — The center of the steel industry, once known as “Smoky City," is starting its third year of a plan for clean, pure air. The latest tests show that smoke has been reduced some 65 per cent during the two-year period of smoke abatement. Thai means a similar reduction of harmful fumes for people to breathe. To compile the figures, researchers placed cans atop buildings throughout the city. Once a month .the dust that fell into them was collected and analyzed. During the ten-year period from 1988 to 1948, comparisons showed reductions of as much as 40 per cent in combustible mater-

ials.

The reductions are direct results of the efforts of the bureau of smoke prevention, which fathered smoke abatement Laws of three general types. There are specific laws for
