The university paid in the heavy four figures to get them here, but those who made the choices realized that there's more to a school than its catalogue. Every teacher knows that he can labor for months and fail to make his point, only to have it thrust into his students' minds in a moment by a visiting authority. Possibly more important is the ettect upon the community: jar ring it into a knowing that these people we read about really exist ana that their problems and ac complishments are fact, not just nistant tairy tale.

Texans Dread Arrival Of Storm Named Sam Quick Exit NEWPORT, Ore. ( Testimony was scheduled to begin Thursday in the second trial of Richard Thomson, accused of trying to kill his business partner, James Meuler, 31, in 1953. Thomson was convicted in the first trial, but a new trial was ordered by the State Supreme Court on the ground improper evidence was introduced. Selection of a jury was com pleted Wednesday, and the jury at once went to the scene where: Meuler went over a bluff in an automobile. Thomson is accused of hitting Meuler over the head with a piece of pipe, and then rolling him off the bluff in the car. The car plunged into the surf far below, but Meuler bounced out part way down, and recovered to testify against Thomson in the previous trial. ' Defense attorneys" have indi cated they may plead temporary insanity for Thomson. This led Dist. Atly. William Hollcn to re quest an examination of Thomson by Dr. Rogers Smith of Portland Wednesday. The defense agreed. After the, examination, there was no announcement of Smith's opin FRANKLIN, Neb.

Seven official sandstorms good, clean sand already have swept the area. Don't dare call 'em dirty dusters. The sandstorm advisory board was created here Jan. 7 after women protested the U.S. Weath er Bureau's policy of giving fem inine names to hurricanes. West Texas sandstorms, the board said, would be given masculine names.

They hardly had time to frame their certificates of appointment when the first sandstorm, struck Jan. 20. ! Sandstorm Adam responded to his name like a gentleman, whis tled along at 29 miles per hour,! stayed a couple of hours, and was careful not to overstay his wel come. The next was Benson, named after the Agriculture secretary, i Ezra Taft Benson. He deposited an extra half-inch of new surface to the vicinity's grazing lands.1 Local Republicans swaggered. Sandstorm Casanova danced in, took a look at things where men I are men and departed hastily. But the next sandy fellow was a real devil. El Diablo, the board named him. He was a real man, towering j 12,000 feet and roaring for hours all over West Texas. Ely was a hit-and-run fellow. Some folks didn't know he was even around. Then came Farouk, who turned out to be fast but not so potent. But Gus was different. He stuck a chip on his shoulder and hung around for'days. Strictly no gentleman, said Mrs. Culver. The next sandstorm's name is secret but Democrats are betting his name will be Harry. And Ray-burn-conscious Texans dread the day sandstorm Sam arrives.
