home of his own. which be may build in the future, a sort of living sculpture “The reasons for putting up a tepee have to do with a slow approach to building handmade houses.” said the Indiana university art graduate "Having a tepee to live in and have the time to make the right kind of house is my approach to building a bouse ” Hoffhein purchased the tepee from a manufacturer in

Oregon, and placed it on the sand in the housing developement site, remarking that it was a good spot. The large poles, crossed at the tepee’s top have strings tied on them, which Hoffhein says he put there just to see which way the wind is blowing Inside the tepee, Hoffhein has a circular mat with the center cut out for a fire. He says that when the fire is lit inside at night, the tepee glows like a Chinese lantern. Flaps at the tepee-'s top act like a chimney for the fire’s smoke. Hoffhein is reading up on the subject erf tepee dwelling and says that when it rains if he runs his finger down one erf the poles, the rain will travel in a, rivulet down the pole. “At night you're looking right at the sky The outdoors is right there . . . being that close to nature, yet protected,’’ commented Hoffhein about the advantages to tepee living. "The mosquitos are bad,” Hoffhein reports and remarked that someone who did not like being outdoors would not care to live as he is. “You just have to take care of things differently.” he said The carpenter-artist is picking up jobs while living in Syracuse, setting up his mobile home. "Once it’s organized, I think it all falls in place,” Hoffhein said. "The housekeeping chores are so small they become a part of the routine and do not become the routine ” Hoffhein plans to live in Syracuse in the tepee for the next two months, adding that. “By that time, it will be cold and time to go somewhere else.” iNew Salem 1 , | By MRS.

A "Why Immunize?” flyer printed by the Indiana State Board of Health tells about the latest virus. The new virus resembles influenza which before had been associated with swine. This strain of the flu was identified during an outbreak at Fort Dix, N J . earlier this year. Scientists are not sure if the disease will spread to the general public, but is making an effort to vaccinate the entire population before an outbreak developes Tests have been concluded which show that a virus of this sort may have caused the 1918 epidemic, but findings have not shown the Fort Dix outbreak to be the same virus as the 1918 epidemic. The vaccines for the nationwide vaccinations are being produced and tested. State health departments will receive the vaccines from federal authorities to be distributed to county health officials. Physicians who request the vaccine for patients will receive it at no charge, if requested. But the patient receiving the vaccine and the doctor must agree upon an ad ministering fee. The jet guns used to administer the vaccines inject the fluid through the skin under pressure at high speed. A slight stinging sensation is felt when the vaccine enters the arm and is distributed in the arm in a mushroom shape, rather than the ball-shaped in-

jection from needle injections. “The most recent use of the jet injectors in this country is in intensive measles control es- , forts,” says Dr. J. Donald Millar, director, Bureau of State Services, CDC. “It is now possible to snuff out outbreaks quickly by vaccinating susceptible children — whole schools full of them — in a matter of a couple of hours.” FATAL FIRE A blaze in a 49-story midtown Manhattan office building on Dec. 4, 1970, killed three persons and injured 39 others trapped on the upper floors.
