Newspaper Page Textf Back Stairs: Squirrels Eating Tulips By MERRIMAN SMITH Unittd Pimi While Home Writer Washington (U.R) Back stairs at the White House: Studious lady who clocks the movements of dojvntown squir rels reports: "If the President doesn't get rid of his lawn squirrels, he'll have no new buds from the Queen of The Netherlands." Queen Juliana last spring sent Mr. Eisenhower several hundred Holland tulips. And the White House squirrels love the early green shoots. One of the President's old friends from South Dakota, Korchak Ziolkowski of Custer, S. D., showed up in town the other day. Ziolkowski is a prop er Bostonian who emigrated to the Black Hills some years ago and dedicated his adult life to blasting out a rough, rock figure of Chief Crazy Horse, leader of the Cheyenne Tribe just before the bloody battle in which Gen. Custer lost his head. Ziolkowski had an artists's dream he'd do the figure of Chief Crazy Horse without fed eral money. The strain of daily blastings, however, proved too much and Ziolkowski is now willing to accept 5-million dol lars, provided the government doesn t tell him how to arrange his chief's feathers in stone. Ward & Paul, the company that makes stenographic trans criptions of Mr. Eisenhower's news conferences, reports a spurt in business since the White House decided to make the President's remarks available for radio and television use. The unofficial Ward St Paul transcript, prepared by high speed stenotype in an office next door to a funeral parlor down the street from the White House, is a hot commodity. It has been agreed that the transcript shall not be sold commercially until it has been printed in the news papers. This makes life difficult for such lobbyists as would like to teletype the transcript back to their home office bosses be- fore the transcript gets into print. This happened at a recent Ei senhower lunch for members of Congress. Rep. Wayne Hays (D Ohio), who sat next to the Presi dent vouches for it. The President said that when he first bought his farm at Gettysburg, Pa., he had a small, mixed herd of cattle. He said he broke up the herd on the ad vice of Atty. Gen. Herbert Brownell Jr., who felt that a Chief Executive should not be deeply involved with cows at a time when he was building a major farm program. Mr. Eisenhower followed this advice for a time, then decided it was an unworthy worry. He now has a sizeable, herd of Black Angus beef cattle. Congressman Hays ii well aware of this herd build-up and asked the President the other day what he intended 10 do about it, particularly on Brownell's advice. "WViof J- 11.

Comment1 On By HARMAN United Press By HARMAN W. NICHOLS Uniled Press Correspondent Washington 0J.R) Mrs. Ivy Baker, Priest is proud of the fact that she can still plug in a line and get you a number. The treasur er of the Unit ed States, a pretty, tall lady whose name you see on U. S. cur rency, used to be a . telephone operator. And Harman JNichois in her office in the Treasury Building, she told me this story, which vill sur prise the editors in Minneapolis because she said she never told it before "I used to be a telephone op erator," Mrs. Priest said. "And when I went up to Minneapolis to make a speech some time back tha Northwestern Bell people wanted to show me their plant." Puis On Head-Set Seems that the head man ask ed the Mrs. Moneybags of the government if she still could put on a head-set and handle some local calls. "I did," the told me, "and not only that, after I got back in practice again, I did pretty well. Not many wrong numbers. I re captured what I had forgotten and I had so much fun that I ran my station for over half an hour." Family Bread Winner Mrs. Priest took .up the busi ness of telephoning operating when her daddy took sick while she was a freshman at the Uni versity of Utah. She was the family bread winner at that point. Today, she, as an appointee of President Eisenhower, has one of the best lady jobs in the gov ernment. You'd think that all the treas urer of the United States had to do is run around signing $1 bills, $100 bills and on up into the several thousands. Actually, the -tall lady. has a McCormack Brief President Candidate Washington U.R) Rep. John W. McCormack (D.-Mass.) was a declared candidate for the Dem ocratic presidential nomination next year for about two seconds Sunday. McCormack reeled off a list of possible Democratic candidates while speaking on a television program. When the program drew to a close he was asked if he would care to add the name of "McCormack." "I would be happy to," he re plied. Then, realizing what he had said, "Who? me? oh, no." McCormack caught himself just in time, seconds later the program went off the air. Work was begun at Las Vegas on the Hoover Dam, Sept. 17, 1930. GAZER? O R.

I J&isi I in HA Chest X-Etay CDSnic Open At Second Final preparations have been made for the opening of the chest "out-patient" clinic at Sacred Heart Hospital on Thurs day afternoon, March 24, ac cording to Mrs. Jack Walker, case finding chairman for the Jackson County Public Health association. Hours for the clinic, which Is open to the public for a small charge, are from 2 to 5 p.m. each Thursday, with evening hours to be added later if there seems to be a need for them. Luncheon Planned Along with the opening on Thursday, presidents and leaders of a number of Medford civic organizations have been invited by the Health association to a luncheon so they may view the new x-ray machinery and learn of policies and plans for its use. Since more than two thirds of the chest pathology is found among the male population, those invited include only the men's organizations. Later, it is planned to have Ashland groups as well as women's organizations and clubs. Providence Guild of the Sac red Heart hospital auxiliary will Studebaker Wins Economy Run By Slim Ton-Mile Edge Colorado Springs By a slim margin seven tenths of one ton-mile the Studebaker Com mander Custom V-8 is the winner of the Sweepstakes Trophy of the 1955 Mobilgas Economy Run. Challenging down to the final moment and the last foot of the 1323-mile route from Los An geles to the Broadmoor Hotel at Colorado Springs, Colo., was the Nash Ambassadr Super 6. The Studebaker edged into first place with 58.6320 ton-miles per gallon while the Nash scored 58.5560 ton-miles per gallon. The Studebaker scored 27.4366 ac tual miles per gallon while the Nash scored 25.1854 actual miles per gallon. Both Class Winners Both cars were class winners, Studebaker In the low-medium price field and Nash in the upper-medium price range. The low-price classification was won by the Rambler Super 6 with 51.2789 ton-miles per gal lon and 27.4733 actual miles per gallon. The high-price classi fication winner was the Buick Roadmaster V-8 with a 53.7596 ton-mile mark and an actual mileage record of 19.7827. Both sweepstakes and class winners are determined on the ton-mile basis, which is arrived at by multiplying the weight of the car by the distance traveled and dividing by the gallons of gasiline used. Officials Amared Officials of the American Au tomobile Association, which sanctions and supervises the Mobilgas Economy Run, and of the sponsoring General Petrol eum Corporation, were amazed by the 50.4798 ton-mile average established by the 21 contest ants completing the course. Despite the fact that all com petitor! were equipped with automatic drive, fast becoming the standard of the American highway, the entrants averaged 21.5615 miles per gallon. They completed the course through fog, snow, windstorms and clear weather at an average speed of 40.6543 miles an hour. W Havt you ever been on a hay ride? Lots of fun aren't they? There's some thing about group traveling that creates a warm, carefree spirit of conviviality. I know about something that I think is even more fun than a hayride That's a trip aboard a ureyhound Chartered Bus. Ex cept for the hay, it's got every thing a hayride has, plus much more. DOS AS YOU PLEASE You and your group can relax in a comfortable, weather condi tioned Greyhound Chartered bus and do just as you please: Sing, play musical instruments, con duct a meeting, or just plain talk and watch the scenery. Your group can charter one bus or a hundred, for an evening or for an entire year. Furthermore, you can go wherever you wish. whenever you please, and make as many stops as you desire. The bus will pick up and discharge members of your group at the central points youN choose. And here is what I think makes Greyhound Charter Serv ice stand head and shoulders Ml Thursday HflospitaD staff the out-patient clinic as a public service. Mrs. J. W. Mc- Duffie, president, will be in charge. Mrs. Walker emphasized that this machine and the one at Community hospital, which is available to the public on Wednesdays from 3 to 6 p.m., have been installed in an effort to locate previously unknown and early cases of tuberculosis, lung cancer, heart conditions and other chest diseases. Funds for the purchase of these ma chines have come from the sale of Christmas seals. "In providing this service, we know the taxpayers of Jackson county are going to be saved many thousand dollars, in addi tion to preventing tragedy in many homes," Mrs. Chester Guches, president of the asso ciation, stated. "Each case of tuberculosis which is allowed to go undetected until symptoms are evident is in the moderate and advanced stages and will cost the taxpayers at least $15, 000." Medical authorities urge every adult over the age of 15 to have an x-ray once a year, with heavy smokers having one every six months. LIKE'S FUN Unlike most ac tresses in Hollywood, Jean Crain (above), mother of four, says, "I like night life and I'm not afraid to say so." The shapely redhead estimates she is asked to at least 200 parties a year. "I can't go to all, of course, so I try to make the ones that sound like the most fun," she adds.

It gives you a warm feeling of security to know you're riding in expertly-serviced, first-rate equipment of the world's largest transportation system. And your "chauffeur" also happens to be one of the world's finest, best - trained drivers. COST EXTREMELY LOW The cost? It's often less per person than regular lower than low Greyhound fares. You may be wondering what type of groups use Greyhound Char tered Buses. The answer is: Every imaginable type. This in cludes clubs, lodges, churches, schools, convention groups, sports fans attending games, military units, big "name" bands and many more. Next time your club or or ganization is planning group travel just remember, "It's smarter to charter a Grey hound!" Please see your local Greyhound Agent for more in formation. So long for now. This is Merry Miles saying, "I'll be seeing you and you'll be seeing America best by Greyhound!" paid adv. Monday. March 21, 19S5 Hawaiian Volcano Spouts Forth Again Pahoa, Hawaii U.R) Angry volcano Kilauea erupted again last night, sending fiery red lava and huge boulders as high as 1000 feet in the air4 The newest outbreak of vol canic activity laid a thick volca nic haze of smoke and ash along the entire 300 mile long Hawaii an island chain. Mount Kilaeua has been active for the past 21 days. The eruption sent a 2200 foot wide river of lava cascading down a slope toward the sea. By nightfall, the lava had moved three , miles through tropical jungle and pastureland and was less than a mile from plunging into the sea. Peter Pakele, deputy civil de fense director on Hawaii island, said the flow was not endanger ing any homes or cultivated land. 7 BAMO POLES 10 FT. LONG l"l'4" DIA.
