Editorial-Wise A Foliow-Up On Drag Racing This newspaper has received numerous telephone calls following the article on drag racing west of the city which appeared in last Wednesday’s Banner. Drag racing has also been reported north of the city on State Road 43. The Banner was informed by several of the callers that the drag racing usually takes place on Friday and Saturday night and Sundays when the weather is favorable. One lady said that this racing sometimes continues until 2 o’clock in the morning. Another stated that people living on West Walnut Street Road were actually afraid of night driving because of the drag racing. This is a dangerous sport, if you want to call it that, and could result in serious or even fatal injuries to those involved or passing motorists. It seems that it would be a good idea if the sheriff's office and the state police patrol this improvised drag strip, at least on the night the complaintants mention. And another thought—would it be possible to have a drag strip in the vicinity of the city which could be supervised by the proper officials ?

Dull Entertainment Possible
Personal And
From what we have been reading it appears that most any group can unionize and strike for higher wages. Some 100 strip teasers in 20 clubs in the entertainment district of London have formulated plans to start a strippers’ union after three girls were fired by a club owner who refused their demands for higher pay. The girls were doing six shows in a 12-hour day for S47 a week. They refused to take off their clothes until they were paid $55. Apparently, the nightclub owners are going to have to at least partially meet their demands or it will be, shall we say, dull entertainment for the customers.
Sheinwold On Bridge Bidding In Danger Spot Locates All High Cards By Alfred Sheinwold National Men’s Team Champion It’i dangerous to step into the auction when both opponents have bid and your partner has passed. This situation Is made to order for juicy penalty doubles, to say nothing of other dangers. Sooth dealer North-Sooth vntocrable NORTH 4 972 V AQ J O 1754 * *97 _ WIST EAST 4 10843 *7 7643 S? 0 1062 O Q, 9 * 4 62 A 43 SOUTH 4 I 10 9 5 O AK3 4 AQJ16S5 goa* WeM North Bart 1 A Taas 1 O 14 2 4 Pass 2 *7 P*» 3 o Pass 4 4 P* 3 * 5 4 All Pass Opening lead — 4 * East's overcall of one spade was of the dangerous variety just described. Since East was a cautious bird, his bid marked him with just about all of the missing high cards. East wasn't doubled for penalties, but he didn't get away scot-free with his dangerous bid. East won the first trick with the queen of spades and continued with the ace of spades, forcing South to ruff. South didn't happen to be the best player in the world, and he would normally draw trumps and try the heart finesse for his contract. But South wasn’t deaf, and East's bid made it a cinch that the heart finesse wasn’t going to work. Forced to look deeper, South came up with the right line of play. He drew a round of trumps with the queen and another with dumy’s nine. Next he ruffed dummy's last spade. PLAYS DIAMONDS South continued with the top diamonds and his low diamond. East had to win the third diamond with the queen. This meant that declarer would be able to discard one heart on
dummy’s jack of diamonds. South still had one other heart to worry about, but East was stuck with the lead. If East returned a heart, dummy would get a free finesse; and if East returned a spade, dummy would ruff while South discarded a heart. Either way East's forced return would take care of one losing heart; and the jack of diamonds would take care of the other low
heart
South should play the hand just the way even if East passed throughout; if the plan failed. South could still fall back on the heart finesse. Still, how many players are careful enough to cook up such elegant lines of play unless the bidding warns them that finesses won’t
work?
DAILY QUESTION As dealer, you hold: Spade A K Q 8 5, Heart K 8 2, Diamond Q 8 8, Club 4 3. What do you say? Answer bid one spade: Your opening bid will locate the high cards if an opponent eventually plays the hand, but your opening bid may lead to a game or a slam. You are willing to take a risk when you have so much to gain. There is less reason to bid when both opponents have bid because it is so unlikely that your side can make anything worth talking about.

Dental Insurance On Upward Trend WASHINGTON UPI — The number of persona covered by dental insurance plans has more than doubled in the last four years, but the dental insurance field still remains virtually untapped when compared with medical insurance, the Public Health Service says. Donald J. Galagan, assistant surgeon general and chief of the dental division, said that although more than three out of four Americans have hospital insurance less than one in every 100 are covered by detail insurance. As of December, more than 1,465,000 persons were enrolled in group dental coverage, he said. In 1960, only 732,000 persons were covered.

In recounting Thompson’s service to DePauw, Dr. Kerstetter today told the board: "I want most admiringly, gratefully, and affectionately to say that Glenn Thompson’s wisdom, devotion and creative contribution to DePauw are simply amazing. His skill in policy definition and in winning goodwill and cooperation, his high standards and devotion to the church, his far-seeing and steady vision, his personal warmth, charm and capacity to inspire and encourage afe indeed a rare, a unique, admirable and never-to-be-for-gotten combination. "... In the name of the Board of Trustees and in my own name I want here to express our unbounded gratitude to Mr. Glenn W. Thompson for his decade of service as president and his almost three decades of active service and leadership of DePauw’s Joint Board of Trustees and Visitors.” Can Lose Money On Bean Crop Farmers attending the CornSoybean Clinic were told they could lose as much as $10 or $15 an acre if their bean harvesting operation is careless or inefficient. Tommy S. Stephens, of Milwaukee, harvester sales representative, stressed controlling factors that mean a more profitable corn and soybean production. “Your wise planning, effort and investment is at stake at harvest time,” he said. “It only takes four or five beans on the ground per square foot to amount to one bushel per acre
loss.”
There are several things a farmer can watch to get more out of the field, he said. In Soybeans, precise cutting is one. If the sickle cuts three or four inches too high, Stephens said, four or five bushels an acre are left in the field. A combine with a hydralically-con-trolled header and good visibility will make it easier to keep the proper setting. He pointed out that reel speed and placement are important. The reel should revolve about the same speed as the forward travel. Hydralicallycontrolled reels, like those on Ghaner combines, permit on-the-go reel height adjustment and can help save more of the crop, Stephens said. He also stressed the importance of maintaining a sharp sickle, and correct cylinder adjustment and speeds. Turning to com, he mentioned that a few years ago, almost all the nation’s crop was harvested by com picker. "In 1963, about 20 per cent of the crop w a f shelled in the field, Stephens said. "And by 1970, the experts tell us that 60 per cent of the corn crop will be field shelled.” He pointed to several reasons for the increasing populari y of combines for corn: The crop can be harvested earlier with less loss from storms and animals. Equipment in used more efficiently, there is more automated handling and feeding of the crop, and better use of storage facilities. All these plus factors can add up to more profit and more efficiency, he said. But there are potential losses that can be controlled, ear losses and shelled corn on the ground. Losses up to ten bushels per acre are common w r here corn is left in the field to long, Stephens
said.
He sugested planting a wide headland to provide more room for maneuvering and to prevent knocking down stalks when turning into the row. Staying on the row is just as important. Pick a reasonable speed, he Mid, and there will be fewer ears lost. “An ear of corn lost every 133 feet per row amounts to one bushel per acre.”

Committee OK's Johnson Plan WASHINGTON UPI —President Johnson's plan for upgrading schooling for children of poor families was approved Friday by a House subcommittee in virtually the same form as the President proposed. The $1.2 billion bill still has a long road to go, however. In the House, it now will be subjected to approval by the full Education and Labor C o mmittee. The House general education subcommittee made a few changes in the administration measure after 10 days of proand con testimony. The changes were relatively minor. They were designed primarily to meet protests from some groups that plan touched too close on the sensitive issue of separation of church and State . The subcommittee approved the bill by a unamious vote of its six Democratic members. Three Republican members refused to attend today’s meeting, contending that the measure had not been given adequate consideration. A GOP spokesman said it was clear in advance that the Democrats planned to "blast the bill out’’ of subcommittee regardless of Republican objections.

Midwest Gets Milder Weather By United Preis International Warm air flowetr over the Midwest today, ending nearly two weeks of sub-zero weather. Temperatures were below zero in the northwest again, but the warming trend was to thaw that section of the nation late today. In parts of Minnesota temperatures were above zero for the first time in eight days. Readings in the high 30s were ex-
pected at Fargo, N. D., whera the temperatures hadn’t risen above freezing since Thanksgiving Day, 10 weeks ago. Midwest temperatures this morning were 30 degrees warmer than Thursday at many cities. Bismark, N. D., experienced a 60-degree wormup in 24 hours. The frigid air that lingered in the East sent the mercury to 26 below at Old Town and 21 below at Millinocket, Maine. It was 10 below at Albany, N. Y.; 5 below at Cincinatti, Ohio, and 1 below at Columbus, Ohio. Elswhere coastal storms spread heavy rain from Texas to Mississippi and in Washington; Oregon and northern California.
75 More Jailed In Selma, Ala. SELMA, Ala. UPI—Sheriff James Clark arrested about 75 praying Negroes Friday when they refused to disperse from in front of the Dallas County courthouse. The delegation walked to | the courthouse t o present a petition asking that the voter registration list be opened for their signatures on orders of federal Judge Daniel H. Thomas in Mobile. The Rev. C. T. Vivian, an Atlanta Negro leader of Dr. Martin Luther King’s organization, led the delegation to the courthouse. Clark refused to admit them. Instead, Clark read Vivian an order of the local court forbidding any congregation in front of the courthouse that would disrupt normal business. "How long have you lived in Dallas County?” Clark asked
Vivian.
