Gasoline Poured h City's Sewers FORT MORGAN. Colo. UP— Explosive fumes from 600 gallons of gasoline lingered in Fort Morgan's sewer system today, but the city accepted the remote danger calmly. The gasoline was pumped accidentally from a city supply tank, and flowed into the sewer system through a ground-le% F el drain. Fire Chief Vic Edwards had fore hydrants throughout the city turned on immediately, to help flush the gasoline from beneath the city. But he said explosive fumes would remain in the air /•paces of the sewer pipes for “two or three days.’’ The chance that the fumes might be ignited appeared slim. But Edwards and police were worried that if the story got out, rumors soon would exaggerate the danger and cau^s panic. Fort Morgan radio stations did not broadcast the story Tuesday night.
Stand Is Taken By Farm Bureau WASHINGTON. (UP) — The American Farm Bureau Federation said today farmers should be required to "earn” the money the government is paying them for not producing surplus crops. It recomm n nded a tightening of ground rules for the soil bank under which farmers now may receive payments totaling up to Si.200,000 00 a year for withholding land from production. John C. Lynn, legislative director for the federation, told the House Agriculture Committee: 1. Farmers “under no circumstances” .should be permitted to harvest or graze land placed in the soil bank. The Agriculture Department last year permitted drought-hit farmers in 700 counties in 12 states to graze livestock on ‘unplanted soil bank land. It has announced it won’t ; permit it this year. 2. Farmers should be denied government price supports unless 1 they put some of their land or
the soil bank. The amount should ' be the percentage of their acreage on which they grow price- ! supported crops. 3. Farmers putting land into the 450-million-dollar “conservation reserve,” one part of the soil bank, should be barred from reducing acreage of other unused land that “normally is idle.” This restriction already applies to the 750-million-dollar "acreage reserve” phase of the soil bank program. The committe is considering possible changes in the soil bank machinery. Lynn urged it to “re j sist pressures to convert the program into free crop insurance and disaster relief.” Melven P. Gehlbach, chairman of the Soil Bank Assn, of Lincoln. Ill recommended adoption of what he called “the Gehlbach s»oil bank and parity earning plan.’’ It calls for removal of all ! planting restrictions on grain [ crops and limiting federal price I support guarantees to a specified | number of bushels per farmer, j Gehlbach said farmers would find it more desirable to put surplus ; 'and into the soil bank under I such conditions.

llisaa Predicts Ag2 Unit Cut
INDIANAPOLIS, UP—IHSAA commissioner L. V. Phillips predicted today Indiana will follow the national trend and reduce the age limit of schoolboy athletes from 20 to 39. There now is no uniform system for the age limit, but Phillips, who attended a meeting of the National Federation of High School Athletic Associations in Chicago last weekend, said most states now have age limit of 19. “The tendency is> to reduce the age limit to 19,” said Phillips “Once you have a large percentage of states adopting the 19year limit, it is likely that it becomes uniform.” He said not many boys are now participating in Hoosier prep athletics who have passed their 19th birthday, but only recently a star basketball player at Winslow had to turn in his uniform when he turned 20. There is no proposal now pend- ; ing before the IHSAA Board of Control to legally change the age ! limit, said Phillips, but he pre- ; dieted it will be a realit3' in the not too distant future. “Sometimes it takes a few | years to educate people.” he said. ; “So far. nobody is pushing the proposal in Indiana . . .” In the fall of 1951, the IHSAA took up the problem, but the 25member athletic council ducked the age issue. It never was seriously tackled since. Five years ago. Phillips was : quoted as saying, “maybe in 4 or 5 years they'll finally get around to it. . . ” 3 GRID CHANGES Three major football rules changes were adopted at the Chicago session? 1. Grabbing an opposing player's face mask will draw a 15yard penalty. 2. Inner linemen centers, guards and tackles— will not b" permitted to shift once in position to draw opposing linemen offside. 3. One player from each team will be permitted to confer with his coach in a charged time-out Purpose of the rule is to cut down coaching from the sidelines. ! The nation that boasts the highest average longevity is the Netherlands, says the National Geographic Society. Average life ! expectancy for a Dutch woman is 1 now 72.9 years, for a man, 70.6. I
