Custodian of
Bank Vaults
SPRINGFIELD, Mass. (Ed
ward Barton, custodian of safe
deposit vaults at Union Trust Co.,
says it's no trick at all to remem
ber 9,000 names and ' faces. He
proved it the other day by .re
membering the name of a man
who had been away seven years.
.Barton, 13 years at his job,
works his memory trick this way:
When a customer comes to the
vault room his mind recalls the
number or position of the man's
box. The name comes by associa
tion. "I started by remembering the
numbers and locations of the
dozen or so directors boxes," he
gays, "and just accumulated the
rest ,
But Barton is not infallible.
Sometimes on his way home to
West Suffield, Conn., he forgets
errands his wife asked him to da
And once for the life of him he
couldn't remember his automo
bile registration number.
40 Homes Get
New Locations
FORT DODGE, la. W3) Ordi
narily, you think of house moving
as being a rather leisurely paced
business.
But it's noqthat way here this
year, More than 40 homes have
been moved to new locations. It's
been the busiest house moving
season in years. The reason is the
expansion of business.
And the physical movement is
not necessarily slow. A house can
be moved at a speed as high as
20 miles an hour, .the experts
here say. Usually the job is for
a short distance only. But a
couple of houses here have been
moved 40 miles.

series when she was five days
old to correct a rare defect

it was an open sac. Doctors suc
ceeded in providing a means of
closing it and tucking it into the
pocket created within the abdo-1

ations. The other was a tonsilectomy.
With all that behind her. Claudia

In the old days sea otter pelfs
sold for as much as $2,5O0 a
piece, but there has been no mar
ket for them for so long because
of rigid protection of the animals.
No one knows how much one
would be worth today and some
furriers think that sea otter fur
is too heavy for modern furs,
