Comment On This and That
By HARMAN W. NICHOLS
United Pre Future Wrir
Washington CU.P.) To my
agent at Camp Desert Rock, near
Las Vegas, some rather amusing
things have
been going on ,
behind the
scenes during
the current
atomic tests.

mission. Much of the material is
classified, which is proper, of
course. But one Army officer
had a sign painted for press head
quarters which read:
"If it isn't classified, it isn't
a story."
My friend didn't say whether
the officer got away with his
little joke. But the agent did
vouch for this one: Army men
are known with affection as
"dogfaces."
The area which is known as
"ground zero" is restricted and
to get within 2500 yards of the
place every dogface had to have

a badge, and there were very
few badges.
A Dog's Life
"So help me," my informant
said, "one day a hound dog trot
ted into the forward trench sec
tion. Around his neck the pooch
wore a completely valid AEC
pass sealed in plastic and with
a mug photo showing bared
fangs. The badge bore the dog's
name and his 'organization."
Incidentally, the dogs at Camp
Desert Rock don't exactly lead
the life of Riley, like they're
supposed to in the Army, accord
ing to my friend.
Sure the soldiers pet and feed
them and welcome them as
friends. But the ground is rocky.
Combat boots wear out quickly
and blisters appear on a man's
heels. On the dogs, havoc is
played with the paws. The boys
tried bandages, but they kept
slipping off and wore out too
fast. .
Marines Need Help
Overnight, the problem was
solved. A soldier went to Las
Vegas on pass and visited a
sporting goods shop. There he
bought some of those leather
covers that golfers use to pro
tect their woods against the
weather. The dogs were pretty
happy about it.
The Marines, for once, had
to lean on the Army. The Leath
ernecks arrived at the maneu
vers, but the situation was far
from in hand. A violent wind
storm greeted them and they had
a dickens of a time putting up
their kitchen tents. Those who
tried it found themselves being
dragged across the premises try
ing to hang on to the billowing
canvas. When the storm finally
let up, the pooped Marines stood
aside while Army engineers put
up the tents.
The GI, my agent would have
you know, called on his ingenu
ity to solve a problem at the
camp. For insulating field ice
boxes, the Army used roots of
the Yucca plant, native to the
area. The boxes were dug into
the rocky terrain, leaving only
the tops at ground level. A small
ice box was fitted into the larger
one and the Yucca, roots .were
chopped up and packed between
the two for insulation. It worked
fine.

Jealousy- Can't Be
Eliminated Entirely
It is Certainly true that telling
a child ahead of time that there
will be a new baby in the fam
ily helps cushion the shock. But
this is far from enough to ward
off jealousy.
(Q) "I just don't understand
my son, Stevie. He is three
years old and seemed delight
ed when I told him we were
haying a new baby. I even lold
him that he could help ma
lake care of the new baby,
and I have kept my word. But
there are limes when he seems
to resent this baby, who is
now two months old. He says
nasty things about him some
times, refuses lo help me when
I need his help, such as get
ling a towel when I am bath
ing lhe baby, and seems very
spiteful about all I do for lhe
baby. I Ihoughl psychologist
claimed that a child would not
be jealous if he were prepared
ahead of lime for a new arrival."
(A) Psychologists do claim
that the older child's jealousy
will be lessened if there is prep-
ation for a new
baby. I know
of no psycholo
gist who claims
there will be
no jealousy at
all. In fact,
they all main
tain that some
jealousy in a
family is nor
mal and can-
noi oe eliminated any more than
it can outside the home, in
school, on the playground, or
even in the social and business
lives of adults.
You have given your son
some preparation for the new
arrival, but your preparation,
as you describe it, was far from
adequate. How could Stevie
know, with the limited experi
ence of a three-year-old, what
it actually meant to have a new
baby in a home?
Could he, for example, antici
pate how much of your time the
new baby would take? Could
he realize that he would have
to share your attention and love
with the new baby? And could
he anticipate that he would have
to wait for several years before
this new baby would be a play
mate for him? You painted such
a rosy picture for him in your
"preparation" that the let-down
has been hard for him to under
stand, much less take.
