    Thinkers Get More Headaches
Than Dunces Experts Agree
By ALTON L. BLAXESLEE
AP Science Writer .
NEW YORK CP) Thinkers are
more likely to set recurrent head
aches than - dunces, some head
aches experts agreed here.
The aches .don't come from wear
and tear or pain or surprise over
thinking up thoughts that is. not
from the actual process of think
ing. Rather they come from what the
thinker does. He reads more, uses
his eyes more, often works with
neck muscles under , strain, said
Dr. Francis L. Lederer. otolaryn
gologist of the University of Illi
nois. r-
The thinker has more time to
build up all kinds of tensions, less
chance to work them out by. exer
cise, he said. The non-thinker is
usually "too busy with routine
work, has no time for headaches."
Ware Lengths"
Thinkers take in more wave
lengths" from events and thoughts
around them, have more chance
for unconscious anxieties, added
Dr. Arnold P. Friedman, director
of the headache clinic at lion te-
fiora Hospital here.
Headaches were discussed by ex
perta from seven branches of med
icine at a roundtable before the
International College of Surgeons.
Many Headaches
Eight to, 13 million Americans
suffer from recurrent headaches.
Dr. Friedman estimated.. He says
he doesn't feel there is any spe
cific personality type marking suf
ferers from migraine headaches,
often called the worst headaches,
or from tension or other forms of
headache. , ,
There are many possible causes
of headaches, including " physical
health, stress and strain of, life,
emotions, the kind of job or mar
riage a person has.
Dr. Friedman said psychother
apy and other treatments had
helped but not cured 63 per cent
of 2,000 patients coming to Monte
fiore with recurrent tension, and
migraine headaches. Drugs and
other treatments can overcome the
pain of acute attacks 75 to 80 per
cent of the tune.
Purl, Knit Led
To Success for
NW Woman
SAN" FRANCISCO (INS)
Most women know how to knit
two, purl one, but few make a
living out of it much less pro
vide employment for 35 workers.
Evelyn Robinson of San Fran
cisco does just that, and she start
ed from worse than nothing she
started, in fact, with a knitting
mill that was already in receiv
ership and an absolute drug on
the market ,
In 1939. successive reverses
had brought the Snyder Brothers
Knitting Mills into receivership
and the bank wanted to get rid
of it But each businessman ap
proached said: .
"What! That white elephant?
No, thanks!"
Miss Robinson, aa an orphaned
youngster from the Pacific North
west had come to San Francisco
to work and got a job at the mills
as a winder.
Four years later when she was
just 21 she was assistant to the
vice president In the four years
she had learned to operate knit
ting machines, handled finished
fabrics' and do some designing,
and to have a deep interest in the
knitting field.
She proposed to the bankers
she take over and they greeted
her proposal a bit skeptically. But
she finally won their consent and
a promise of a one-half interest
in the business if she could pull
it out of the hole.
She tackled the seemingly
hopeless task, moving to smaller
and less expensive quarters, and
hiring trusted, handpicked em
ployes. She did the work of two
people herself, tacluding lighting

after she took over, she had paid
off every bit of the debt and a
half interest was hers. Since then
she has purchased the other half

Miss Robinson still puts in a 12

Washington Mirror
Group to Aid
Financing of
Universities
, By A. ROBERT SMITH
Statesman Correspondent
. WASHINGTON As the, na
tion's private colleges and uni
versities reopen their halls of
higher education for another
term, a new organization opened
for business Tuesday to help
them fight the frightening high
cost of learning.
Called the Council for Finan
cial Aid to Education with offices
in New York, it is headed by a
Pacific North westerner. Dr. Wil
son M. Compton, ex-president of
Washington State College. The
Council was launched Tuesday on
a $600,000 three-year budget con
tributed by the Ford Founda
tion's found for the Advance
ment of Education, by the Sloan
Foundation and other organiza
tions. New Revenue
Aim of the council is to open
up new pools of revenue to high
er educational institutions, espe
cially from business and industry.
The move comes at a time when
independent colleges'and univer
sities are seeking means of meet
ing their rising costs without in
creasing fees and tuition to a
point where they foreclose the
chances of an education for many
good but not well-off students.
Dr. Compton calculates the fi
nancial income of America's col
leges at 90 per cent of their min
imum requirements. He estimates
they should be receiving $150
million more each year.
Clearing House
Over a three year period the
Council hopes to spell out the
needs of the universities and col
leges to the business world, and
simultaneously indicate to these
potential contributors ways in
which they can assist education.
The Council will not solicit funds
for any particular institution, but
is to serve as a clearing house be
tween donors and receivers.
The Council has announced
that it will try to show business
its stake in the future well-being
of higher education -by reminding
the business community of the
large interest in free institutions
which it shares with the universities.
This interest in education ' on
the part of private industry would
be general rather than specific,
the Council believes, so that it
never seeks to curb the expres
sion of unorthodox views which
are consistent with the tenets of
a free society.
The colleges' responsibility,
says the Council, will in turn be
the assurance that teaching is not
in the nature of partisan advoca
cy of any special interest and that
their researchers handle evidence
with integrity.
The Council will strive to pro
mote goodwill that will be mu
tually advantageous to education
and business, as well as the na
tion at large.

ink Spacing .
Must Be Right
XNOXVTLLE, Tenn. (INS)
Sink slumping or straining; can
make any woman tired before her
time, but proper sink spacing
means comfort and convenience.
Home management - specialists
at the University of Tennessee
have found that ' the average
homemaker. spends more time at
her sink than at any kitchen work
center. If she has to stoop over a
sink that is too low or if she has
to strain because her sink it too
high, the homemaker becomes
tired.
It's easy, say the specialists, to
discover the correct sink height
for the toaividuaL -
Stand erect with your arms
hanging1 down naturally. If the
palms of tout hands rest easily
on the sink bottom, then the
height of-your sink is right for
you. r. ' . . ,

women, will be more comfortable

Among New Enrollees at WV
ROUND TRIP
ENID, Okla. (I) Bus drivers
meet the funniest people. A wom
an sleepily took an early morning
bus to work here, then immedi
ately fell 'asleep again and rode
twice to the end of the line.
Finally the perplexed driver
awoke his passenger and asked
her to pay the fare.
Some 50 veterans of the Ko
rean War are on Willamette
University campus this fall and
among them is a double amputee
believed to be the first to
enroll at the university.
He is William F. Cozad, 23. a
big: cheerful ex-Marine staff ser
geant of Salem, who is one of
three disabled Korean vets on
the campus and one of 32 Korean
War GI's coming to the university
for the first time.
Bill, who was married last De
cember and is the son of Mr.
and Mrs. Joseph Cozad, 1732
Birchwood Dr., registered Mon
day with his fellow classmates
and plans to major in economics.
He's heading for a business of
bis own after graduation.
A mortar shell got Bill Aug. 1,
1852, just a few days before the
bloody see-saw battles of Bunker
Hill. He lost his right arm and
nine days later they amputated
his right leg.
Bill mentioned casually that 70
large pieces of shrapnel were re
moved from his body and that be
still carries some 300 small
pieces. "But they don't bother
me much," he added.
1 The ex-Marine Is fitted with
artificial limbs. "About the only
thing I cant do is run, but I can
do everything I want myself," he
said confidently.
- He and his wife plan to build
their own house this spring.

legal battle being waged by the
Acoma Indians of New Mexico

yet, some have had to take shovel
in hand and literally dig up the
facta.
But the historian in the year
2,000 will be afforded the luxury
of reading all about it on micro

The tribe's governor, Castillo
A. VaDo and his five-man com.
mittee are trying to gain over
two million acres of land to add
to their present 93,000-acre reser
vation near Santa Fe.
Vallo says that the extra land
belongs to the Acomas under old
and valid treaties between the
Indians and U. S. and the old
Spanish conquerors.
The documents being preserved
on microfilm go back to New
Mexico's territorial days, the
Spanish occupation and to the
year 1230 A. D.
Documents from ageless Fran
ciscan mission churches also re
being filmed to add to Vallo's
presentation to the government
Typical of the old papers found
in the missions was a 1777 mar
riage record and an 1819 birth
certificate. The entire filming
and recording process is being
carried on at the University of
