Fear plague in war zone By RAY WILKINSON KHE SANK, Vietnam (UPI)— Bubonic plague may be spreading among the North Vietnamese troops surrounding this Marine fort on South Vietnam’s northern border, U.S. spokesmen said today. Marine officers said the plague may be carried by rats feeding on Communist corpses lying just beyond the fort’s barbed wire defenses. The Marine command has begun a program to insure that every Leatherneck here has been innoculated against the disease, a spokesman said. Plague shots are required for every American coming to Vietnam. “We can see dead North Vietnamese bodies near the wire. And the rats have begun to desert Khe Sanh. Apparently the rats are feeding on the rotting bodies. Under these conditions, it is probable that there is plague among the North Vietnamese,” the spokesman said. According to U.S. intelligence estimates, 16,000 to 20,000 Communist troops surround this fort of 6,000 Marines. American medical authorities here said they are worried that an epidemic could break out. U.S. servicemen arriving in Vietnam carries an innoculation which lasts six months. The current drive is to insure that all Marines here have had shots in the last 180 days. “The biggest carriers of the plague are not the rats but fleas which breed on the rats,” a medical officer said. “Rats carrying the plague pass it on to the fleas breeding on the rats’ backs.

DEAR HELOISE: The chair seats of my maple dining set are so slick and smooth that I had a hard time keeping the cloth pads from slipping. I had a bright idea one day and bought some thin, sponge rubber sheeting by the yard and cut pads to go underneath the regular pads. I just cut them a wee bit smaller so they wouldn’t show. Well. THAT was the cure. Mary Shipton

DEAR HELOISE: If your child has one of these look-alike yellow, plastic raincoats, draw a sailboat, fish, speedboat or whatever on the sleeve and Junior can then distinguish his coat quickly. P. J. * * * When our son was little, I had all his friends autograph one with a felt marker. He was the talk of school! Heloise

Now why didn’t I think of that? I have a chair where the cushion S-t -O-O-T-S, too. Your terrific idea completely solved my problem. Thanks, Mary. Heloise * * * DEAR HELOISE: 1 have a lot of plastic flower arrangements. One day when cleaning them, an idea came into my head. Instead of washing the flowers. I sprayed them with my can of spray furniture polish. I just let the polish dry itself and the flowers looked like new in no time. They were shiny and bright once again. So every once in a while now, I spray all my plasticflowers when polishing the furniture and they always look nice. T. K. Billerica

DEAR HELOISE: For a correct reading of a liquid measuring cup. home economists recommend putting the cup on a level surface and reading at eye-level. Most of us put it on the counter and stoop to read it. but I simply open one of the over-counter cupboards and put my measuring cup on a shelf. So much easier! Mrs. J. Christensen DEAR HELOISE: How do your pre-treat soiled spots on clothes? We ladies had an argument today. Some scrub a bar of soap on the spot, then wash as usual. Others put liquid laundry detergent on the spot and then wash as usual What we want to know is your own personal method. Saint Mary’s Guild Members *

Delicious salad, coffee, tea, candy and nuts were served from a beautiful table. The napkins carried the Easter motive. Members of the club thanked Mrs. Seller for the pleasant afternoon in her home.

I beat up a thick muK (like whipped cream) of EITHER detergent or s o a p flake> (whichever I am going to use when I do the washing itself). When it gets real thick, I use a tahleknifc to spread it on the spot of the dry fabric, ruli in with an old tooth brush and let it set awhile. 'I his soaks into the fiber itself. Then 1 wash as usual. About the woman using a cake of bar soap to rub into the fabric, she is quite correct. If she uses detergent, then wash the clothes in the detergent. Whatever method you use, I recommend using the same tyj»e suds to pre-treat garments that you wash your clothes in. Heloise * * * DEAR HELOISE: If you are troubled by ants in your house, place the skin of a cucumber where the ants appear and they will soon disappear. Don’t know why. but they seem to be allergic to cucumbers. It really worked for me. Mrs. Mason :«« Jk Many people use this method. Others use talcum powder or commercial prodin-ts. Heloise * * * DEAR HELOISE: Have you ever tried serving children their pancakes in a wide shallow soup plate ? It sure keeps most of the syrup on the pancakes and not on the table . . .
