(AP) When a guest de parts, he usually drops his host a bread-and-butter note. And on leaving South Dakota, I'd like to write a thank you note to a state where I've had a world of fun and good food. The main thing South Dakotans complain about is that the rest of America doesn't seem to know what they've got oat here in the land of infinite variety. Maybe you d better start off your article by pointing out that South Dakota is one of the 48 states," an editor remarked dryly. What do they have out here, where the deer and the antelope played and the buffalo roamed? Well,, you can still find buffalo, deer and antelope and some of the nation's greatest Indian reser vations. They've got 10 gallon hats, ear-to-ear grins, and a mile-deep gold mine. They've got endless miles of waving corn and wheat, and roll ing oceans of grass studded with fattening herds of cattle, they've got dinosaur tracks in stone. And not far away they've got a big B-36 airbase, where modern monsters of the sky rise to guard our north ern frontiers. State Is Mixture South Dakota is a mixture of the old West and the new West. The tourists love the legends and sym bols of the old West, such as the small cemetery above Deadwood, where Wild Bill Hickok and Ca lamity Jane lie side by side. Or they like to visit the Homestake mine, which has yielded more than $550,000,000 in gold since 1875. The Indians are still willing to play Indian for the tourists. But for themselves they like to play cowboy. "Most of them prefer to dress like cowboys," said one oldtimer. And their ambition is to be ranch ers. The buffalo are on government preserves now and can thumb their beards at nunters. But sports men fly from both coasts here to hunt Chinese pheasants. They are 'r1 Jf-r- THAN COMPETITIVE FUlUSIZE STATION WAGONS -AND ONLY WILLYS GIVES YOU: The mileoge-strttching F-head HURRICANE engine with me higheit compression in its field 7 A to 1. 0 Easier maneuverability in traffic and parking plus roomy comfort for six in its spacious body. 9 Toll, wide cargo space 98 eo. ft.

All South Dakotans love their famous Black Hills, a wonderland of fish and game where the In dlans believed the great spirit of Manitou dwelt. Once a year they made a pilgrimage Into the hills to fashion their arrowheads and tomahawks. Several years ago a few Sioux braves climbed atop Bear butte a former Indian signal post, for a fast in honor of Manitou that lasted several days. When they came down, spiritually exultant but physically starved, a white man asked what they'd like to eat first. "Ice cream." grunted the first brave. No Snakes In Hills The Black Hills are free of snakes, and Potato Creek Johnny, an old prospector, used to tell why. He said all the snakes in the hills once attended a convention and decided to hold a sun dance. As they were circling, one lazy snake caught on to the tail of the snake ahead In order to get a free ride. Soon all had done the same thing. "Then they got hungry and be gan to swallow," Johnny said "The more they swallowed the smaller the circle got. Finally they all just swallowed each other up and the circle disappeared." And there hasn't been a snake in the Black Hills since. The Badlands, where the morn Ing sun flickers in brilliant colors on stones eroded in fantastic shapes by wind and rain, are like you would imagine the surface of tne moon to be. borne one in our car asked what I thought they re sembled. "Lika my bedroom on an average morning," I replied ab-sentmindedly. 'Oh. they do." said my wue, Francis. And after that there was silence In the car for several miles. Fertile Valley We rode across the surging prairies, huge waves of eternal grass, great green lactones ior the Hereford flesh that feeds the cities. And then came the deep sweet fields of the Sioux river val- ripening toward barvest Fifteen years ago these tremen dous acres had bee sunburned into "the dust bowl," and the land sickened. But then the years of the rains came, and the land healed Itself and the tired people who had stuck stubbornly with It. Today South Dakota Is tanned, healthy, and happy and has a cash balance In the state treasury. Yes, they've got everything out here. Everything except a subway. To a city boy that's one of the nicest things about SoGth Dakota. It takes people with a real sense of values to refrain from build ing subways. Blanket Deferment Of Students Near End . WASHINGTON UP) T h blanket deferment of college stu dents will end next Monday on schedule, selective service said. "There definitely will be no ex tension of the deferment," a spokesman said. "If draft boards don't have reports as to the scho lastic standing or aptitude test scores of college men by the 20th, they can start classifying those men for the draft on the 21st." . The deferment to Aug. 20 was granted to allow sufficient time, af ter the end of school, for school authorities to mail scholastic standings to the draft boards, and for the educational testing serv ice at Princeton, N. J., to send to the boards all scores from the ap titude tests it administered throughout the nation last spring. Local boards may use this in formation to decide whether a stu dent deserves deferment for an other year.
