Denver (U.R) Dwight D.
Eisenhower will fly to Los Ange
les Tuesday to make his first
speech since winning the Repub
lican presidential nomination.
His associates said the speech,
to . be delivered Tuesday night
before the 53rd annual encamp
ment of the Veterans of Foreign
Wars, would be non-political in
nature.
To Receive Award
But it was apparent that any
thing the GOP nominee says will
be construed as having political
significance.
The VFW will award Eisen
hower its first annual Bernard
M. Baruch Medal. This award is
to be presented each year to the
person who "has made the great
est contribution to the cause of
American unity and world
peace."
Eisenhower's brief speech will
be in response to this presenta
tion.
To Return to Denver
After delivering his speech,
Eisenhower will fly directly
back to Denver.
The former five-star general
got a taste Monday of some of
the tough political problems that
lie ahead of him in his presi
dential campaign..
A group of Negro' leaders
headed by Bishop D. Ward Nich
ols of the First District of the
African Methodist Episcopal
Church of New York, came here
to discuss civil rights problems
with Eisenhower.
Not on Record
The GOP nominee refused to
put himself on record as favor
ing a compulsory Federal Fair
Employment Practices Commis
sion. He had taken that same po
sition prior to his presidential
nomination. Despite this fact,
Nichols and the other five mem
bers of the Negro group said
they were "convinced that the
election of Eisenhower in No
vember will greatly advance
civil rights progress in Amer
ica."

Girl Regains Sight;
World Terrifying
Walney, England (U.R) J
Hornby, her sight restored after
being blind for 17 of her 18
years, found the world a fright
ening place Tuesday.
"The first horse I saw terri
fied me," she confessed. "And
aren't houses big!
' "I was horrified when I saw
my first double-decker bus. It
seemed o be coming straight at
me.
"That fried egg for breakfast
looked horrible. I couldn't eat
it. And the Swiss roll at teatime
was revolting."
Doctors believe the shock of
a boiling hot bath into which
Joan stepp'ed during a visit to
her sister's home here last week
restored her sight.

Firm's $1410 Found
In Custody of State
Portland (U.R) The $1410
that disappeared mysteriously in
the confusing labyrinths of Ore
gon state government bureacra
cy was back in the hands of its
owner Tuesday.
The money, which was placed
in an unstamped envelope for
safe keeping Thursday in, the of
fice of the Marks Motor com
pany, was mailed mistakenly by
a well - meaning employee to
some state agency he couldn't
remember which one.
The 14 $100 bills and one $10
bill were unheard from until
Monday when an official of the
state unemployment office at
Salem informed that motor firm
that the money all of it
arrived and would be returned
to the firm.
Measles Lead List of
Communicable Diseases
Eleven cases of communicable
diseases were reported in Jack
son county for the week ending
August 2, according to a report
released today by the . Jackson
county health department.
Red measles led the list with
five cases, three in Medford and
two in Rogue River. In addition
there were three cases of influ
enza in Medford, two cases of
chicken pox in Jacksonville, and
one case of mumps in Medford,
the report stated.
Bartender To Keep
Nickel Beer Prices
Mandan," N.D. (U.R) The
nickel beer is here to stay.
Tavernkeeper Joe Wetzstein
featured a five-cent beer during
a recent three-day local celebra
tion. Business boomed.
Wezstein said Tuesday the
special price will be continued
daily between 3 and 6 p.m. He's
afraid it would hurt business to
up the price again.
London policemen are still
unarmed. Despite the fact that
the "bobbies" carry no guns,
London has fewer holdups than
any other major city in the
world. Only nineteen in the en
tire year of 1951. New York has
more holdups than that every
day. London policemen are rare
ly shot at by criminals. That is
because a criminal who shoots a
policeman seldom escapes the
gallows. When Scotland Yard
goes after a policeman's murder
er, it practically always gets its
man.
Clover Fallow
The Scots are clever adver
tisers. That :' brilliant fellow,
Thomas Lipton, learned the art
of advertising in Glasgow. Com
ing down to the present, have
you noticed those advertise
ments featuring a man with a
patch over one eye? That cam
paign has been one of the most
successful of all time. Originator
was David Ogilvy, a Scotch ad
vertising man. The model for
the series was Baron George
Wrangel. There is nothing
wrong with the baron's eyes.
Color Psychology
Black was once the most
popular color for automobiles.
Now only 10 per cent of autos
are black. Speaking of color
psychology in general, it is said
the most effective combination
of attention-attracting coloring
is orange and black. Or yellow
and black. That's why the ma
jority of taxicabs are that color.
Having a choice between a yel
low and black cab and any other
color, the prospective passenger
will nearly always take the
former.
I once talked color psychology
with a fellow who sells horse tip
cards at the track entrances. He
said when he started his cards
were blue. He then switched to
green. A color expert told him
to try orange and black. He did.
His sales' of cards tripled!
Beautiful Wives
As to that room in the White
House in which Mrs. Truman
has arranged to display the por
traits of only those- wives of
presidents who are beautiful.
John Tyler, our tenth president,
married two beautiful women.
His second wife, Julia Gardner,
was so beautiful she bore the
nickname of "The Rose of Long
Island." The first Mrs. Tyler,
Letitia Christian, was a southern
beauty. Incidentally, Tyler was
the most prolific parent among
presidents. He was the father of
fourteen children, seven by each
of his wives.

WHYS AND WHEREFORES OF SIZING IN FABRIC
' . The use of sizing in-fabrics is by no means an evil. Many fabrics
are enhanced in appearance and wear when sized. The use of starch in
shirts in a good example. So sizing is "evil" only when used to make
a poor fabric look like a good one. Cleaning will not usually remove
sizing. However, if the garment needs additional sizing, ft should be
restored. Then the garment you take home will look and feel the same
as when you brought it in.
There are five types of sizing.
1. Gelatin 2. Gum Arabic . 3. Gumjragacanth
4 Flax Seed 5. Synthetic Resins
We determine what's on the fabric before cleaning, then restore it
in the amount needed, if necessary, prior to finishing.
That way you can be sure that your garment will have the same
body and weight after cleaning as it did before cleaning.
To be sure of good cleaning,

As to that man who won the

not. He followed a system popu

In a biographical sketch of
Lord Byron note it said that the
poet had a club foot. Have seen
the same statement in many oth
er Byron biographies. It's
wrong. Byron didn't have a club
foot. However, one of his legs
was a trifle shorter than the
other ... "I Married a Redhead"
is the title of a book by M. M.
