Briefs containing new evi dence are filed in behalf of Dr. Sam Sheppard. (International) A Nichols Worth of . . . Comment On This and That By HARMAN W. NICHOLS United Ptm ftitr Writer harman mcnois Washington U.PJ Our chief3 have found many ways of puffing off steam and getting shed of " the care of state. Mr. Eisenhow er, as any. oth er golfer knows, gets his exercise by knocking a white pill across the p.r e s i d e n t ial green if he can get up ahead of the squirrels. Our first leader, George Washington, was a puny lad and came down with one thing after another and "fever and bodily pain" wore him thin. He was de termined to build his muscles. He wrestled and ran and he rode pink-coated to the hounds. And when he ran, he ran on time and had little truck with anyone who didn't. He had a secretary who also professed to be a run ner, but his aide was a Johnny-come-lately, often. One day when the secretary turned up five minutes late, the general asked how come? The fellow said his watch had stopped. A Good SI Watch "Well," said the President, "either you get a new watch or I get a new secretary." The man bought a dollar time piece which served him well. Old John Adams, the second President, occasionally wet ' a line in a trout stream, and when riding would gallop '"until he wore out the horse." Thomas Jefferson climbed aboard a nag every day and applied the spurs over an eight mile course. He once remarked that it "jiggled his liver" and kept him in trim. The fourth President, James Madison, likewise was a high , backer on a pony. He had mis- eries of the chest and walking pained him. He relaxed in the saddle. .James Monroe loved to ride, too. And so did Andrew Jackson, who said toward the end that he had spent a '-'full life with a leg up on a horse." A Game of Mibs ' , John Tyler was handsome, tall and slender, and clean of face. He rode and he hunted. But when he was notified that he would be the next President, he was down on his knees. He was said to have looked up at the messenger and said: "Just a minute, please." Old John at the moment, was knuckling down in a game of marbles with his young son. Zachary Taylor was pretty tough, too.. One March he swam the Ohio river from Kentucky to the Indiana side when the stream was cluttered with ice. He dried off, ran for the high office and won. John Quincy Adams used to take a'morning dip in the Po tomac, in the raw. One day a tramp came along and walked away with his clothes. The Pres ident noticed a small boy fish ing. He bade him run up to the White House and ask Mrs. Ad ams to send along a pair of pants. The boy did and was reward ed with a fine breakfast at the White House with the President of the United States. . In 1910-1919, six pounds of canned fruits and juices were purchased for every 100 pounds of fresh; in 1950, 33 pounds of canned fruits and juices plus four pounds of frozen were purchased for every 100 pounds of fresh.

Have you ever smarted to make a telephone call, only to find you're not quite sure of the number? Is it 1-3-3-8 or 3-1-3-8? Well, this" can easily happen, for memory has a way of twisting telephone numbers around. So whenever you're in doubt," it's a good idea to look up the number in your telephone book before you call.

While Housa Writer Washington (U.R) Back stairs at the White House: This is a big book week at the White House. Currently on sale is "Run Silent, Run Deep," a novel by Cmdr. Edward L. Beach,, who is the President's naval aide. Behind Beach's book is "The Assassins," by Robert J. Dono van of the New York Herald Tribune. Donovan's book, avail-" able at the book stalls; April 15, is the finest work to date on the screwballs who take aim at a Chief Executive. Donovan, a civilian, has sup plied the Secret Service with some fine source material. Coming out April 11 is a book length feature by the conductor of this space. Name? "Meet Mister Ei5enhower," published by Harper & Brothers and it makes a grand Easter gift. Commander Beach is a sub marine officer who during World War II. took his boat through some" amazing perform ances. Beach is known to his colleagues as "Ned" and for a writer, he is one of the most taciturn, close - mouthed men around the Chief Executive. Beach's first book was the grip ping, non-fiction "Submarine.'' As a member of the Presi dent's staff said, "'Submarine' was so real that I had the nose bleed." "Run Silent, Run Deep" is just about as good. Beach blushes at the thought that he is a writer. Television people may not have spotted it, but toe Fresi rent has a heavy sun-tan. He got it from an infra-red globe in the office of his doctor. A lady who knows Presi dent and Mrs. Eisenhower rather well swears that the White House trapped nine, instead of three squirrels. The President's press secretary, James C. Hag crty vows with equal vehe mence that the bag was three squirrels. Recent cold snap killed all the spring flowers at the White House. Mrs. Ike has to send to the government's horticultural galleries now for her corsages. 40 ACRES PLUS 4 miles south of Rueh en Apple gate river.
