Editorial-Wise Afeef A Mon From Mars (From: Richmond, Va., News Leader) Remember your introduction to astronomy back in your 9th grade general science class ? If so, you'll probably recall the class speculation about those mysterious dark lines that criss-crossed the photographs of Mars. Where they merely eroded grooves in the surface of the red planet—or were they, as the more ro-mantic-minded suggested, the canals of a highly-advanced Civilization ? Recent experiments at the Union Carbide Research Laboratories in Tarrytown, New York, will gladden the hearts of any leftovers from the Buck Rogers generation who have not had their space fantasies jarred by the sudden realities of the government s doings at Cape Kennedy. Up in Tarrytown, experimenters working under a contract from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration have discovered that certain forms of earth life can exist—even adapt—to the dryness, coldness, and lack of oxygen characteristics of tbs Martian atmosphere. Used in the experiments wers tarantulas, turtles, worms, and various kinds of plants. The scientists are quick to point out that the discovery that certain earth species can live in simulated Martian environment does not mean that these same species would exist on that planet. However, such adaptability by earth apeciea might mean that any life that ever existed on Mars could have evolved to cope with the present temperature and atmospheric conditions. Scientists have long believed that Mars at one point In its bistory had an environment much like that of Earth at the time life was evolving. For many years, evidence to justify theories about life en Mars was scant, almost non-existent. Scientists tended in recent years to view life there as virtually impossible because of the severe Martian environment. Many fullfledged believers in life on Mars saw their canals washed away with a flood of scientific “fact.’' Now, it appears that such may not be at all the case. Our thinking must be readjusted once more; the time may be close when we all may meet and shake hands with a man from Mars.

Their children are planning Open House, celebrating their Golden Anniversary Sunday, August 1st. Hours are 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. at their home in Fillmore and hope many of their friends and relatives will attend. Mr. and Mrs. Nichols are the parents of six children: Mrs. Howard (Lucile) Burkett, Herschel. James Robert (Bob), Mrs. Noble (Edith) Fry, Doyle and Dallas. All live in Putnam County except Doyle in Sherman, Texas. There are nineteen grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.

Crabb in the presence of their families and a few friends.

1 Only the pain fibers of the spinal cord are affected, he said, and other types of sensation and the ability to move the pinful area are not impaired. Mullan said surgicl cordotomy, major operation using general anesthetic, was first successfully performed in 1912. That operation, designed to permanently relieve pain, remained until 196C the standard method of relieving intractable pain, Mulln said. Because of the scope of that operation, however, many persons who needed pain alleviation the most were too weak to withstand such seurgery. Mullan's new techniques involves only local anesthesia. Mullan said his technique is particularly suited for persons who have severe pain only for a limited duration, such as cases of severe burns, herpes, shingles and some nerve diseases. An important by - product of the procedure Is that it avoids habit-forming drugs and the possibility of addiction.
