Editorial .... (Reprinted from the Bloomington Courier Tribune)

AT THE TURN of the century Paul Dres-.-.-’i smg "On the Banks of the Wabash” made the whole country conscious of the Wabash River. Barbershop quartets, vaudeville singers, Chatuaqua choruses, victrola records, player piano rolls ... all touted tie wonders of the Wabash. Hit songs lived longer in those days. Really good songs never die completely so we still occasionally sing the song "On the Banks of the Wabash.” But what has happened to the Wabash River, itself, in 60 years? This pathway for early settlement and commerce, like the song, "ain’t what it used to be.” The once bustling river port towns have not had a commeuical boat landing since the 1920s when the last of the old navigation dams washed oiiL The channel is choked with silt and wastes from towns and factories. New industry that needed cheap bulk water transportation shunned the area. Floods from drained headwaters and formerly forested hillsides plagued the Valley, washing out farms and cities alike. Automation of farms, mines, railroads and other prime employers hit the Valley and 33 of the 88 counties showed a fifty year trend of decreasing population. In the late 1950s the people decided to fight back. The Wabash Valley Association, a voluntary citizens group, was organized and a crusade to restore the Wabash River to usefullness started. Six multi-purpose reservoirs are now substantially completed and 10 more are authorized. Six small watershed projects are nearly completed and 90 more in various stages of sound land and water management programs. Levees are making both towns and farms safe from floods. New small town and rural water supplies, outdoor recreation facilities, reclaimed strip mined areas are making the Wabash Valley more attractive. NOW COME THREE DAYS of decision as to whether the river can and should be restored as a transportation artery. A link that can connect the Valley with the Great Lakes cities of Chicago, Gary, Milwaukee, Toledo, Detroit and Cleveland on the north and the inland waterway cities of the Ohio Valley and the Gulf to the south. At 7:30 p.m. October 16th in the Tirey Memorial Union Building on the Indiana State University in Terre Haute, Col. Robert R. Wessels, District Engineer from Louisville, Kentucky, will conduct the first of three vital hearings to determine the fate of the Cross Wabash Valley Waterway. If this hearing, the one in Chicago, on October 23rd and the Toledo hearing on October 30th attract enough evidence from industrialists, shippers farmers and other traffic generators, then the Corps of Engineers will proceed with plans for putting the Wabash back to work. Will American re-discover the Wabash?

Prussic Acid Potential Telephone calls tell us that far. mers are worried about Prussic Acid Poisoning from sudangrass and sorghum-sudan crosses even though few cattle are reported lost. In general, cows and sheep are most susceptible to prussic acid found in these crosses. These forages are the most dangerous when the plant height is below 15 to 18 inches, or when they have been stunted by frost, drought, freezing or near freezing temperatures. Be especially cautious of plants that have been wilted following frost. Don’t graze cattle on summer annuals after they have been wilted for three or four days. After normal growth occurs resume grazing. Neither the sudan-grass or sorghum-sudan is dangerous when preserved as hay or silage after the ensiling process is complete. Visible signs of prussic acid poisoning are labored breathing, spasms and staggering. Treatment must be administered quickly to prevent death. If symptoms are observed, remove the animals from the pasture and call a veterinarian immediately. Prompt action is an absolute necessity. Often dead animals are found without any toxic symptoms being observed because fatal doses of prussic acid are possible without visible signs of distress. Prussic acid as such, does not occur in any great quantity in living plants. The plant cells contain substances called dhurin and emulsin. When the plant cells are very young or the cell walls become crushed as a result of frost, wilting or digestion, these two substances come together to form prussic acid or hydrogen cyanide (HCN). This is not to be confused with nitrate poisoning. (NOS).

Animals when grazing tend to select leaves and tips which are higher in HCN.

Pediatrician wants children out of wool T-shirts

ROME (UPI)— A quiet-voiced American pediatrician named Eve Landsbere-Lewin is waging a one-woman fight to get Italian babies out of woolen undershirts and into bed before midnight. Too many clothes and too late hours for children are among the most widely encountered habits the gray-haired doctor is trying to change in this country where she studied medicine after fleeing Nazi Germany. "Italians do a great deal of overclothing,” she said. The babies sweat so much after all those clothes and the minute a breeze comes along, they sneeze. If they were dry as our American children are, they wouldn’t sneeze. "There isn’t a baby in Italy that doesn't wear a woolen undershirt—which causes a rash — and a yards-long tummy band,” she said. Another thing for which she is fighting: "To get all the kids into bed before midnight.” Divided Work Day Because of the divided work day in southern and central Italy, fathers do not get home to dinner until perhaps 9 p.m. They want to see their children and have dinner with the family so it is 10:30 or 11 p.m. at the earliest before the children start to bed. An American idea which the pediatrician says doesn’t eo

well in Italy is demand feeding. Hospitals tell the parents to feed the child on schedule—and for nursing mothers to weigh the child before and after feeding to see how much it ate. In America, babies receive various immunization shots at the age of two or three months. "In Italy, diphtheria and tetanus shots come at eight or nine months,” she said, "by which time many children have died of diphtheria.” The doctor left Germany in 1933 in her second year of medical training, when the Nazis killed her father, a doctor. Citizenship restrictions elsewhere in Europe brought her to Italy to study. Days after she took her final examinations Italian restrictions on medical practice changed, too. "So I went to the United States. It was the only door left open,” she said. It was a wide-open door. She did research in pediatrics at Johns Hopkins in Baltimore, interned at the Jewish Hospital of Brooklyn, joined the New York Public Health Depart, ment, wanted to join the war, and wound up a major in the United States Army.

Library honors ‘Little Women’ The Greencastle - Putnam County Public Library has arranged a display of books on Louisa May Alcott, in honor of the centennial publication of "Little Women.” Soon after its publication on October 3, 1868, "Little Women” was reviewed in a magazine for young people, called Golden Hours, in which the reviewer said "the book is lively, entertaining and not harmful.” One hundred years later, reviewers say "Louisa Alcott’s stories have remained favorites because of their understanding, truth and sense of humor.” Little Women has been translated into thirty languages. In the display are the following books: "Invincible Louisa”, a biography by Cornelia Meigs, and which won the Newbery medal when it was published. "Marmee, the mother of Little Women,” by Sanford Salyer, "Glimpes of Louisa”, a centennial collection of the best stories of Louisa Alcott, and the centennial edition of "Little Women” with a new introduction by Cornelia Meigs. This is the most popular girls’ story ever written.

INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) - The Ruckelshaus for U.S. Senator campaign organization today removed the names of Purdue and Notre Dame football coaches Jack Mollenkopf and Ara Parseghian from a billboard after they complained. Parseghian sent a telegram to William Ruckelshaus, the Republican nominee, and Mollenkopf sent a letter, and the candidate’s headquarters issued a statement saying "we are somewhat surprised” that the coaches "misinterpreted our billboard.” "Their names were selected for placement on the board solely because we truly believe they are ‘Big men with big names’ as are all the other persons whose names appear on the board,” the statement said. "There was no intention. . .to infer that the use of their names . . .constituted an endorsement of Mr. Ruckelshaus.” The statement said the Ruckelshaus staff had "not as yet received letters or telegrams of objection from Washington, Shakespeare, Eisenhower, Michelangelo, Rickenbacker, Hippocrates, Shostakovich, Heming-

DAYS TILL UNITED FUND

DEAR HELOISE: As a working wife with just my husband and myself to feed, I have found a way to save time in the kitchen after a tiring day at the office. Even though there are just two of us, I buy meats by the “family pack” (and save money that wayi. As soon as I get home from the store, these packs are broken down to two-person portions and wrapped in aluminum foil for freezing, with the contents marked with a felt-tipped pen. Then when ready to use, after defrosting one of these handy packages, 1 use the SAME aluminum foil as a liner in the pan or small cookie tray I broil the meat in. No need for constant watching and no soiled frying pan to wash just throw the foil away. Vegetables can be prepared just as easily by the same method. Again I buy the familysized cans. (When cooking fresh vegetables, I always cook for an army that way. have lots leftover, i Once opened and the neccessary two-person portion removed, I store the remainder in plastic containers. I place the vegetables to be used in the little individual dishes I save from “pot pies,” cover them with foil, and when ready to use place in my oven. Day-old biscuits or cornbread can also be rewarmed in the same oven by sprinkling some water over them and wrapping them with foil. While my meat, vegetables and bread are cooking. I prepare salad (if wanted) and set the table. Quick as a wink our dinner is ready! Elaine Mather 1 give a great big A.O.K. for you, my lu\ ! Think of how much money you’re gonna save small families and oldsters with your idea! lieloise * * 4: DEAR HELOISE: I never throw away hair that is caught in my hairbrush or my comb after shampooing it. I save every strand and make a "hair lift" out of it and pin it to the top of my head where I want that “pouf.”

Then I just comb my hair over the “pouf" which I have wrapped in a hair net. Since the hair is mine, rt exactly matches. Its the greatest. I*

LETTER OF LAUGHTER DEAR HELOISE: I read the hint about wearing a "thin stocking cap" under your wig to be more comfortable. But I have one word of warning for you. Don't ever let your husband catch you with your "stocking cap" on without your wig! Mine did and I haven't seen him since! .1 R

DEAR HELOISE: Now that I have a daughter starting in first grade and one in kindergarten, I find I need to be a lot more organized in the mot mngs. I set the table the night before, and get out everything I plan to use for breakfast, pack the lunches and place in the refrigerator. You'd be surprised how much easier the day starts. It takes only a very few minutes to do all this in the evening. Whereas in the morning (when I'm only halfawake i it takes me fifteen minutes or more. Sandy Moore

Know just what you mean, kiddo! However, for years I've called it "half-asleep." lieloise

DEAR HELOISE: I recently repapered my kitchen. Wanting decals that would also match. 1 cut appropriate parts of the pattern from some of the leftover wallpaper and pasted them on the cupboard doors. I find them lovelier and a better match than any I could have bought. Sarah G
