STILL AT IT Former Prime Minister Sir Winston Church
ill emphasizes a point as he opens his Parliamentary
re-election campaign in his constituency at Woodford,
England. The 80-year-old statesman traded verbal brick
bats with Labor Leader Attlee, charging that Attlee was
"piebald" because he had to shift from right to left to
accommodate different party factions. Attlee retorted that
Sir Winston was "a bit of a chameleon." The Conserva
tives, several polls report, will double their Parliamentary
margin in the May 26 general elections.

Ashland Sisters
Make Dog Protectors
Mrs. Oma Warke, 585 East
Main st., Ashland, and her sister,
Mrs. Stella Reed, Portland, an
nounced today that they recently
began the manufacture and sales
of dog hair protectors of nylon
and plastic materials. They have
received several orders from pet
shops and while Mrs. Warke con
tinues the manufacture of " the
items in Ashland, Mrs. Reed will
make sales contacts.
One item is a nylon jacket for
dogs, which zips down the backs
of 'the animals and which com
pletely covers the dog's body.
The other item is a lap pro
tector for use in automobiles. It
is made of fireproof plastic. It
is made so that it will fit any
car and is attached to either the
back or front seat by tape and
snaps, and can be folded or re
moved when not in use.
HERE'S PROOF
Indianapolis (U.R) Clay
Trusty, city editor of the Indian
apolis News, dashed outdoors
into a midnight hailstorm,
scooped up a handful of hail
stones and put them on ice in
a home freezer. Next day he
published a photo proving the
hailstones were as big as golf
balls.

buddies at home and went to
Memphis to compete in the mid
South competition. After he won
there, he was whisked into a
taxicab with a nice guy named
J. Z. Howard, managing editor
of the Press-Scimitar, as his
guide. Idea was to put the lad on
television.
Good Luck Charm
Also in the cab were Bill's
mother, Mrs. Paul Kelley, and
his grandmother, Mrs. H. B. Kel
ley, both of Kennett and both
good spellers. ,
Anyhow, the conversation in
the back seat got around how to
spell this and that and the driver
of the cab couldn't but flap his
ears and hear what was going
on.
"You the new mid-South spell
ing champ?" asked hackie Ben
nie Aronwald. "Well, you can't
miss, laddie, if you take this little
good luck token."
Cabbie Bennie fished around
in his pocket and came up with
that .stony bead fastened to a
safety pin.
"Here," said Bennie, "have
this, and you'll be sure to win. It
comes from the tomb of David
in Palestine. My uncle is a rabbi
in Jerusalem. He is 93 years old.
He sent me some of these. I have
carried one since I was 23 years
old. I have had nothing but good
luck. Like the time I bet on
well. Don't let this get away
from you. And incidentally, the
safety pin is for safety first."
Second Last Year
Bill came here last year from
Missouri and wound up second
when he forgot how to spell
"uncinate."
All in all, in picking up $350
in bonds and $375 in cash in a
"long career" as a speller of
about three years, Bill wonders
if there isn't something of a fu
ture in becoming a professional
speller.
"I've got it all in the bank,"
he said. "And not only that, just
by studying words and reading
you get the hang of how to make
money."
The 12-year-old has some sage
advice to kids who hanker to
take up spelling correctly as a
career:
"The best way to spell is to
read widely," he said, wearing a
wise eye and looking at a man
who can't spell "mouse" without
adding an extra "s." "If you
study words while you read, you
can see them in your mind while
you spell."

Teen-Age Gangs Rule
Detroit's East Side
With Reign of Terror
Detroit (U.R) Police said to
day a group of teen-aged toughs
are ruling their East Side
neighborhood with a "reign of
terror."
They made the statement in
announcing a rigid crackdown
against teen-aged hoodlums af
ter 21 youths seized at the scene
of a scheduled gang fight were
released from custody "because
witnesses were afraid to testify
against them." ,
Six of the youths had been
charged with carrying conceal
ed weapons but were released
because Recorder's Judge John
P. Scallen said he did not have
enough evidence against them.
Police said they found home
made bombs, pieces of chain,
cutting tools, straight razors at
tached to broom handles and
other improved weapons on the
youths when they were arrest
ed. "We asked several witnesses
to come to court. They wouldn't
come. These gangs of kids have
them terrorized," police Sgt.
Walter Majewski said.
Majewski said the gang battle
was scheduled between 200
youths and climaxed a series
of skirmishes between high
school pupils and a street gang.
The battle would have been
"the biggest gang fight in De
troit's history," if it developed,
police said.
Police Commissioner Edward
S. Piggins ordered his top aides
to instruct officers to use "what
ever force necessary" to quell
the uprisings caused by the
youths.
Majewski said a son of a po
liceman was threatened over the
phone after the arrests of those
who planned - the latest gang
fight.
"These toughs work through
the children of parents who dare
to take action against them," he
said. "They rule their neighbor
hood with a reign of terror."
Sons of Stern Fathers Likely
To React Visually To Stress
By DEL08 SMITH
United Press Science Editor
New York (U.R) Here is
some new scientific ammunition
for use in the never-ending argu
ments on how to bring up chil
dren: Two psychologists have ex
perimental evidence that the
sons of stern fathers are likely
to grow up into men who- react
to stress with out-going anger,
while the sons of mild fathers
are inclined to turn stress-produced
anger inwardly upon
themselves.
Stanley H. King and Andrew
F. f Henry experimented with
Harvard boys. First, they found
who had been the discipinarians
in their homes, father or mother
or both, and whether the discip
line had been stern or mild.
Then they put the boys under
experimental stress, and meas
ured their reacting anger by
the reaction upon their hearts
and vascular systems. Those who
reacted outwardly were easy to
spot, of course. But people who
try to hide their anger and may
suffer from anxiety, as the re
sult, are hard.
There is evidence that one
kind of cardiovascular reaction
goes with out going response to
stress, such as anger, and an
other kind goes with a turning
inward, accompanied by brood
ing and covered-over anger. This
evidence is not conclusive, but
it is suggestive. At any rate,
King and Henry used this meth
od to measure the responses to
stress at Harvard.
The young men were asked
whether father or mother had
dominated their childhood dis
cipline. Those who felt that both
parents had been strict discipli
narians, unvaryingly put father
down as the dominant.' When
either father or mother was
strict and the other was mild,
most put father down as domi
nant but some gave the nod to
mother.
But when both father and
mother were considered byf their
male offspring to have been mild
something like four-fifths of the
boys said mother had been the
dominant.
The scientists were unable to
draw even tentative conclusions
as to how the sons of strict moth
ers but mild fathers react to
stress their evidence was too
variable to be workable statisti
cally. This question, they said,
needed further exploration.
Indeed, the whole matter
needs extensive research, they
said. They felt that their results
raised questions, such as: Does
the control father exercised in
childhood still operate in the boy
after he becomes a man? Does
the way the boy understands
control and discipline truly re
flect the amount of control and
discipline his parents exercise?
Do out-going and inward-turning
reactions to stress become habits
rather than unchangeable emo
tional mechanisms? v
In their report to the Ameri
can Psychological Association,
they granted the "limitations"
of their studies, and dwelt es
pecially on the difficulty of ac
curately measuring reactions to
stress and the fact that the boys
themselves decided whether one
or another or both parents were
strict or mild.
They would like to see the
same kind of study made of a
group of young women. They
wondered if the same results
would be gotten from girls.
