(U.R) Symp tomatic of our changing world is a rising invasion by men into what has been largely a field dominated by woman social work. Dean Margaret Johnson of Western Reserve's school of ap plied sciences says a few men have always enrolled in some phase of social administration, but "these last few years since the war have been remarkable in the upturn of men in ratio to women students. Of the 117 presently register ed for Reserve's two year pro gram, 41 are men.

(U.R) Mem bers of the Industrial Executives club here planned to hear a speech by Kenneth, Krippene, explorer. One night before Krippene's scheduled talk, his agent an nounced that the explorer would be unavailable. The agent explained that Krippene set off in the jungles of Peru in search of an emerald mine last fall and hadn't been heard from sinfe. London (U.R) There will be no "stately homes of England trade union" this year. Blue blood is running cold at the prospects of a price-cutting war among the dukes, the carls, the marquesses and barons who are trying to lure tourists to their ancient homes and castles. A proposal for such a union or association was made by Sir Harold Wernher, who lives in an imposing pile called "Luton Hoo" (built 1762) with the sup port of young Lord Montagu, dancing partner of Princess Mar garet and present occupant of Palace House in Beaulieu, a 13th century landmark. The Earl of Warwick (14th century Warwick Castle) was in favor of the project as well and invitations to discuss it were sent to the Earl of Onslow (Clan don Park, magnificent 18th cen tury Italian style mansion), the Duke of Richmond and Gordon (Goodwood House) and Viscount Hinchingbroke (one of the "Oli ver Cromwell slept here" houses). Peers Disagree "The idea," said Lord Mon tagu, "was to set up a standard entrance fee or otherwise the whole thing might run riot." The Duke of Marlborough, whose Blenheim Palace is the nation's chief stately home at traction, remained aloof, as did Queen Elizabeth's cousin the Earl of Harewood (Harewood House) and the Marquess of Bath (Longleat House) second in the tourist league. Sir Harold s group thought it might be well to make a stand ard entrance fee of about two shillings sixpence (30 cents) for tea and perhaps three shillings sixpence (48 cents) for lunch. Extras would not be con trolled the Duke of Marlbor ough sells flowers from his es tate, the Earl of Shrewsbury and Waterford peddles vegetables, the Duke of Norfolk, Earl Mar shal of England, has a gasoline filling station. The plan for the union has fallen through, however, and now peer is watching peer nar rowly as the tourist season opens to see whether prices will be cut from last year's range of two shillings (28 cents) to two shil lings sixpence. The Duke of Marlborough can afford to be independent. He has an unbeatable combination in one of the world's great homes and the room in which Winston Churchill was born, complete with the layette worn by the future prime minister. Last year he had 126,000 ad missions and, with extras, gath ered some $50,000. His son, the pink-cheeked Marquess of Blan- ford helped collect the money. The Marquess of Bath was sec ond with so;nc 90,000 visitors for about $35,000. Both those and othrr peers who have opened their homes are frankly trying to beat high taxation and hang on to family seats centur ies old. Before them is the chill ing example of the Luttrell fam ily, which lost Dunster Castle after 750 years. Competition Tough Competition for the tourist dollar gets tougher every year as more and more homes are opened. This year there are al most 100 and many are the de vices used to increase earnings. Viscount Hinchingbroke has his six children acting as guides. The Duchess of Marlborough sells guide boks. Lord de L'Isle and Dudley, Britain's air minis ter, has instituted a "connois seurs day" for 14th century Pens hurst Place cost five shillings (70 cents) permitting tourists to roam about without guides. The Marquess of Salisbury is serving refreshments in Jacob ean Hatfield House in the ban queting hall where the first Queen Elizabeth held her first council of state; Lord Montagu is fitting up a museum in one salon (he lives in only five of the 100 rooms of Palace House), Sir Harold Wernher is displaying relics of the great race horse, Brown Jack. Mother Rabbit Splits Litter for Feeding Kalamazoo, Mich. (U.R) Joseph C. Gregory's New Zeal and white rabbit had a feeding problem on her hands when she gave birth to a litter of 15, close to a record. However, the rabbit solved the problem as any good mother would. She divided the litter into three groups of five and put her young on a three-hour schedule. Luncheon is served every hour in rotation. SURRENDERS TO U.N. St. Louis U.R) Joe Mike- cin has changed the name of his United Nations Bar here in compliance with a UN dislike of commercial use of the title. Mikecin wrote UN headquarters in New York that he was re naming his tavern the White Flag "in complete surrender" to the cause of peace. Grants Pass Farm Students Visit Ranch More than 80 persons partic ipated in a tour of the C. C. Hoover and sons ranches here this week. Among them were 62 members of the Grants Pass chapter of the Future Farmers of America, 12 members of the veteran's farming class there, their two instructors, and about 10 local people.
