situation can be partially averted
by buying the proper toilet tissue.
Recognizing the importance of
this, MD Toilet Tissue is pro

A request from the Glide school

the $3,600 bill should be reduced.
Roseburg board members said the
bus had to make the trip any
way, so didn't think a reducti .n
justified.

Flics Given Atomic
Brew In Research Test
ISLINGTON, F,ngland til Some
radioactive flies are buzzing
around here. They got that way
because they were given a drink
of brew distilled at the Harwell
Atomic Research Laboratories.'
Scientists at the pest infestation
laboratory at Slough are responsi
ble for the condition of the flies,
and the idea is to determine how
far a fly flies.
The insects are released here
after the atomic brew snifter.
Then flics are captured at vary
ind distancs, and a Geiger count
er spots those with the tell-tale
atomic aroma on their breaths.
Greatest distance covered so far
is three miles. But scientists are
still hoping for a real cross-country
champion.
