Gale force winds fanned the flames out of control and they ignited two houses nearby. Cause of the fire was not determined, but officials believe the windstorm had something to do with it, perhaps tearing down power lines which set off the blaze. Firemen from six communities poured water on the fire and tried to save the home of Erwin Dailey, a nephew of Frank Woodard, owner of the business which burned. Erwin and his wife escaped unhurt but their house was destroyed.

SAIGON UPI — U.S., South Vietnamese and Korean troops in three major battles killed nearly 600 Communists In a day’s fighting, spokesmen said today. But enemy soldiers in two of the battles shot down 12 U.S. helicopters.

In the day’s fighting, 255 Communists were reported killed. Two other American helicopters were shot down in the Central Highlands where two companies of the U.S. 4th Infantry Division killed 74 Communists from a force that attacked an artillery position southwest of Kontum. Three American helicopter crewmen were reported killed and eight others wounded in the incidents. Most of the helicopters were |1 million UHls, and

were recovered after being repaired on the ground. In a third major battle Wednesday, a tough Korean Marine unit recovered from a surprise Viet Cong attack near the central coast and reported 246 Communists killed.

By ROBERTA ROESCH “Please tell me what I can do to calm a jumping- nervous system that insists on leaping out of control at the very thought of returning to work after 15 years at home,” a woman said this week. “A short while ago,” she said, “1 visited the personnel office of an international firm that is building a branch in our city. Along with filing an application, I also took some job tests to see how well I could handle them. Just For Kick* “Actually, I took the tests for kicks, and the thought that I might get a job on my initial try was something far removed from my mind. But this week, I got a call asking me to work as a secretary when the office opens. “I want to take this job because it points to a future as well els welcome money. But I’m afraid to say ‘Yes’ for fear I can’t do the work.

February 10 at Edgewood the "Clever Clovers” gained their 19th victory but something above that, Coach Miller gained his 150th victory! Saturday night, February 11, the coach and his miracle men performed a “first in the new Cloverdale gym when playing Fillmore. The final score—10559. You’re right! They are the first team to break 100 in the new gym. Now the blue-million fans are very proud of Cloverdale with their 20-0 season and will be cheering their “Tip Top Team” on to their final victory of the scheduled season, here at home, when they meet the

These were participants in the Solo and Ensemble Contest at DePauw and four of those who performed will be attending the State Solo and Ensemble Contest, Saturday, February 18, at Butler University. The Seniors are beginning work on their biggest and most important English assignment their research papers. Thursday, February 16, they visited the Greencastle Public Library and the DePauw Library which no doubt they will be using frequently during the next couple

months.

Mrs. Truesdel, Senior Government teacher and Mr. Cress, principal, chose Alicia Casida and Glen Furr to attend the second annual Indiana High School Government Leadership Conference at Lawrence Central High School and Belzer Junior High.

—CIA Review foundations knew, and some of the students knew and the United States Senate didn’t know of this,” the Montana lawmaker said in an interview. “To me it’s a move toward big brotherism.” Mansfield’s comments came as demands for investigations of the CIA mushroomed on Capitol Hill. Chairman Wayne L. Morse, D-Ore., of the Senate education subcommittee was considering an inquiry as was Chairman Carl D. Perkins, DKy., of the House Education and Labor Committee. Sen. Eugene L. McCarthy, DMinn., urged that a special committee be empowered to look into all possible phases .of CIA involvement in domestic activities university research, publications, refugee groups and labor unions as well as student organizations. Meantime, the NSA’s national supervisory board, “shocked and dismayed” at the disclosure of the CIA connection, had launched its own investigation. The board said the relationship had not been sanctioned by any of the NSA’s policymaking bodies, and few members had any knowledge of the subsidies. {

Moon Pictures Are Excellent PASADENA, calif. UPI — Space experts, elated by the performance of America’s Lunar Orbiter 3, promised to release for publication today new moon picture* now under scrutiny for potential landing sites for Apollo astronauts. Remarkably clear photographs of the lunar surface were returned to earth Wednesday and received at the Goldstone Tracking Station in the California desert from where they were microwaved to Caltech’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory here. Three of the pictures were released Wednesday afternoon. Two, taken with Orbiter 8’s telephoto lens, showed a closeup view of the pock-marked lunar surface—one covering an area only three-quarters of a mile square. ' The third photo was taken through a wide angle lens and showed a surface area at 648 square miles. Orbiter Project Manager Clifford H. Nelson said U. S. Geological Survey experts would discuss their findings at a JPL press conference later today, at which time additional photos would be released for publication.

Fears Are Often Unnecessary

A NURSE, one of the most dedicated ones I have ever worked with, displayed warmth and kindness and gentleness to all patients who were privileged to come under her care. She was 27 years old, personable and gave the appearance of “Rock of Gibraltar” stability. One of the things that she did, to doctors and patients alike, was to take a few moments out of a busy schedule to sit and chat with terrified Dr. Coleman patients, especially during the long dark hours of the night She knew how important a few kind words were to a frightened patient alone and afraid in strange surroundings I cannot resist adding that such kindness is one of the great contributions made to patients by all nurses. One day I asked her to take care of a patient with cancer who had been operated on and was progressing well. I was more than moderately surprised when she emphatically would not accept this case. Curiosity Aroused My curiosity was aroused sufficiently to open a discussion with her about it At first she resisted talking about it, but later she openly discussed her own personal fears. Even she, with her excellent training, was not immune to the disease of fear which saps the energy of people in all walks of

life.

Here wax a person who knew that cancer was not communicable or contagious and yet she was so disturbed by her anxiety that she could not follow the dictates of reason. Needed Assurance, Security Even more tragic had been her refusal to consult a .psychologist or psychoanalyst who could give her the assuraacc and security that she needed. I pointed out to her that there was nothing to be ashamed of in learning the reasons for her fears. We both knew she would not hesitate to have a chest X-ray or & blood count, for a physical illness. When once we openly discussed her fears and brought them out into the open, she

realized how destructive they were to her total happiness. When later she adopted my suggestion that she seek professional help many other anxieties, that she had so carefully kept hidden, were brought out in the open. Emotional Invalid Despite the fact that aha seemed to be a productive human being helping other people to find health, she had been an emotional invalid constantly fearful of impending doom. She was able to trace her fear of cancer directly to her mother, who, too, had lived all of her life in the shadow of a disease that never struck her. Talking out her problems to her own personal doctor changed her entire life. She no longer had to pretend that she was unafraid. The fact that she became a better nurse was not nearly as important as the fact that She became a happier tanman being. Fortunately, in her caaa wa were able to break through tha outer covering that had hidden her troublesome fears for such a long time. Age Of Hope All of us, if we are to attain a greater degree of happiness, must avoid becoming the fearinvalid. Living in a complex world that bombards us with statistics of death and destruction does not make this easy. We must recognize that this is truly an age of hope and one that must not be devitalised by hidden fears. When fears are discussed openly and without shame to people trained to listen and to advise, anxieties tend to become less important and permit us to live happier and more productive lives. # • t SPEAKING OF YOUR HEALTH—Candy lozenges that contain antibiotics cause far more trouble than they are worth.
