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.

Comment1 On

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.

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.

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.

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

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

ones that sound like the most
fun," she adds.

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.
