Force Of Habit HARTFORD, Conn. UPI — The appropriations committee of the Connecticut General Assembly has had to eliminate a costly error in legislation for a planning study. The committee hastily reassembled Wednesday and struck out a clause providing $200,000 for the study. Law clerks pointed out that the bill carried no such allocation and could not understand how the $200,000 got there.

County 4-H Activities have been very few this week and next week because of graduation and the ending of school activities. Therefore, I have very few current 4-H activities to report. 4-H Camp is probably the main activity that was being planned this week. Last Tuesday, Harold Wilson of Parke County and Mrs. Carol Reed of Washington and Scott Counties met with Mrs. Sendmeyer and me to plan our 1967 4-H Club Camp to be held at Shakamak State Park on June 21-24. This year Putnam County will be camping with Parke, Washington and Scott Counties. The program this year will include a life saving demonstration by Public Service, KAB (Keep America Beautiful), Recreation, Crafts and Nature. There are some other things that may be included if
plans materialize.
The life-saving demonstration is very interesting and useful, Part of the demonstration is done on a workable mannequin.
We will be sending camp letters to all 4-H members about the first of June. The cost this year will be the same as last year’s, seven dollars, plus one dollar if campers want to ride on the bus. • • • Several Jr. Leaders are working on the Fair Book advertisements. If anyone has not sent in their fair ads, we hope you will do so in the very near future. We will be happy to have new advertisements also. This can be done by notifying the County Extension Office or the Jr. Leader Committee Chairman in your area. The chairmen are as follows: Russellville —Cathy Niles; Roachdale — Mike Clampitt or Harry Ludlow; Bainbridge—Gary Judy, Dean Evans and Carol Robertson; Clinton Twp—Lynn Far-

A new Item in the Fair book will be the 4-H Booster ads. Any individual can have their name put in the fair book as a 4-H booster for one dollar. This can be done by notifying the County Extension Office or anyone on the Jr. Leader Ad Committee. e e e Are you interested in growing big pumpkins? I received this notice from Roscoe Fraser of Purdue. Maybe you could use some of this information — Some growers use a scoopful of well rotted manure and a handful of complete fertilizer mixed in each hill as a base for the seed. Press a seed into the hill of soil with hills spaced 8 feet apart. If you use more than one seed per hill, thin to one plant per hill when the plants reach two inches in height. Let the soil warm up before you plant The soil needs 4 good soaking of water each week and some growers fertilise with a nitrate solution every three weeks. VERT IMPORTANT — You must keep the Striped Cucumber Beetles off the plants. Sprinkle granular Dieldrln over the plant and around tha hill every two weeks. When the beetles go down into the soil at night they walk through the Dieldrin and that gets them. For Stalk Boren, it Is suggested that you dust with 1 per cent Rotenone Dust every week. Start when the plants start to run. Only one or two pumpkins should be allowed to remain on the vine. You no doubt will get suggestions from some of your old local growers.
The ringneck pheasant, one of the principal game birds in the United States was brought here from the Orient in 1881.

CONTRACT BRIDGE By B. Jay Becker (Yep Record-Holder In Masters' Individual Championship Hay) BIDDING QUIZ
You are South, both sides vulnerable. The bidding has been: Kart South West North 1 * Dble Pass 1 * Pass ? What would you bid now with each of the following four hands? 1. +K84 *08752 *6 +AKJ3 2. 4AQ763 VQ753 4K2 *K4 I. 4KJ92 9AQ10 *73 +AK98 4. 4Q5 9AQJ83 4K8 +AQJ2 1. Pass. A player who doubles for takeout is under no obligation to bid again after his partner makes a forced response. In general, & minimum double starts with the values required for an opening bid. If the doubler has no substantial values beyond those already guaranteed, he should pass partner's twiinmiim response. It must be remembered that when partner replies to a double, his bid does not show strength and, in fact. It will often be based on a poor
hand.
There Is no good reason to bid again over one spade. Game Is virtually impossible in view of North’s failure to jump to two spades to show a promising hand. ▲ raise to two spades Would Indicate extra values, and a bid of either two hearts or two clubs would amount to a shot in the dark. 2. Two spades. Bearing in mind that North’s response merely shows spade length, all
we can do now is give him a simple raise. Counting the distribution and the trump fit, the hand is worth about 1? points. This is enough to warrant a single raise, hut not enough to justify stronger action. The raise to two spades identifies the extra values above and beyond a minimum double and invitee partner to go on if possible. 3. Three spades. This hand is worth about 19 points. Naturally, the jump to three spades indicates greater values than a raise to two spades would. It asks partner to go to game with values that would have justified a response if the doubler had opened the bidding as dealer. At the same time, the three spade bid permits partner to get out ftom under with a worthless hand. North is being urged to bid again, but he may past 4. Two hearts. This is all we can do at the moment. It is true that we have more values than the combination of the double and the two heart bid would indicate, but our 19 high-card points, while impressive, require a voluntary lad from partner if a gadie Is to be made. We have already Indicated substantial values by showing that our hand was originally too strong for a mere one heart overc&IL Partner is therefore under notice that he is faced by a powerful hand.

WASHINGTON UPI — President Johnson, cautioning that frustration and heartache lie ahead, says America’s objectives in Vietnam are still limited and its determination unwavering.

It tests the patience and the understanding of each of us.’’ Asked specifically If there had been any change In the oftstressed administration policy that U. S. goals are limited in Vietnam, Johnson answered with an unqualified Bo. The President indicated he sensed some Improvement in the nation’s attitude on supporting the war, but he declined to comment directly on the statement of 16 Senators Wednesday warning Hanoi the United States would not withdraw short of an honorable
peace.
“I think during this period of war there are going to be a great many heartaches, some frustration, and certainly dissent,’’ Johnson said. “I believe all of us regret that we have to do what we are doing, but I think we would regret it more if we didn’t do what we are doing.” Johnson called reporters into his office shortly after 4 p.m. EDT.

"Rubber Capital" Is Functioning AKRON, Ohio UPI — The “Rubber Capital of the World” today continued to function under a lengthy rubber strike. Mayor John Ballard has expressed concern that an extended strike, and the resulting loss of workers’ income tax, will hamper city finances. Meanwhile, negotiations between the General 'lire A Rubber Co. and the United Rubber Workers Union remained recessed although both company and union officials say they can be resumed at any time. The company's 3,300 employes, covered by the union contract which expired at midnight Monday, continued working at the facilities here and at Waco, Tex. In the rest of the industry, negotiations continued Wednesday with the Firestone Tire it Rubber Co. in Cleveland; with Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. and with B. F. Goodrich in Columbus. Only Goodyear is continuing production, on a day to day basis. The other three companies are closed down by strikes. The companies have a mutual aid strike agreement A union spokesman said he could make no comment on the negotiations. “There’s nothing to comment on. progress is very slow,” he
said.
The basic issues are salary hikes and a guaranteed annual wage.

Try and Stop Me By BENNETT CERE TJPTHAT WOULD YOU do, if, just before a crucial approach Y» shot to the eighteenth green, you looked up—and found a full-grown hippopotamus looking at you? That* one of the unusual hazards that confronts players on the sporty ninehole golf course in Lusaka, Zambia. Furthermore, there’s a local rule at the club, often needed, that allows a player to lift his ball out of a hippo’s footprints without penalty. A whole family of hippos have set up light housekeeping on the lake next to the course, and they seem to enjoy watching the golfers in action. The biggest hippo in the herd, nicknamed Jason, leaves particularly devastating footprints on the fairways— some times nine or ten inches deep. • • • QUICKIES: One of those young beatniks with hair down to his shoulders took a job sweeping out a barber shop for fifty cents a day. Asked why he was willing to work for such ridiculously low wages, he explained, “I’m hiding out from my family. This is the last place in the world they’ll look for me.” A lady explained to her local postmaster that she wanted to send a goldfish to her sister in London. “Regular mail?’’ she was asked. “No, no,” she answered. “It’s got to go air mail.

Search Ends (Continued from Page 1) Edwin raced home from school, changed their clothes and hurried off, their heads apparently filled with the adventure stories of Mark Twain. Mrs. Michael Hoag, mother of two of the missing boys, said her sons had been scolded for exploring in caves the previous day and had been warned against further ventures into
them.
But she left her home briefly j for a trip to the store and “I’ll bet we weren't gone a half minute until those boys lit out
for that cave,” she said. The city will pay the biggest
share of the cost, estimated at $1 million, with help from the Red Cross, but that really isn’t!
important, Musgrove said.
The important thing Is “we ; have made every effort and j there isn’t any stone unturned.” |
