y ELIZABETH HU1LOCK, PH.D.
Propose! In Haste
Than Starts to Stall
Marrying in haste is one of
the most foolish things a person
can do.
(Q) "I am 32 years old and in
love with a man of 30. I went
out with him for three weeks
and he then asked me to marry
him. I see him
every two
days and he
tells me how
much he loves
me and how
much he wants
me as his wife.
.When he ask
ed me when I
wanted to get
Dr. Herlock married, I said
in June. I loved him and didn't
want to wait too long. The next
day, he called me and said he
didn't want to be rushed. When
I told him I wouldn't wait, he
- ."J ..... 1.1 4U
in June. From the way he
taLked, I gathered he didn't want
to be married for a long time.
June is here and he never men
tions marrying me this June. I
have never met his folks. He
said they would object to our
marriage because they are very
bitter toward those of -other
faiths. 1 don't want to jvait for
him forever and I don t know
what to do."
(A) It would be foolhardy to
try to rush this young man into
marriage when its - is, obivous
that he is stalling for some rea
son. Probably his parents' objec
tion to his marrying a person of
a different faith is holding him
back.
The very fact he had not taken
you to his home to meet his
family or that they have "not
come to call on you and your
parents would certainly mean
that they would not accept you
very graciously if you married
their son. They mav not even
know that he is .going with you. !
Put It Out Of Mind
Until these obstacles are clear-
ed up, you would do well to- put
marriage out of your mind, j
There could be no real happiness
for you in a marriage where the '
man's family felt bitterly toward j
you and where he might feel
that you were responsible for a ;
break with his family. j
He has doubtless realized the j
obstacles in the way of a happy
marriage and that has made him j
reconsider his desire to marry :
you. Until he makes up his mind I
what he wants to do. your best j
tactics wil be to see less of him i
and thus avoid becoming too !
involved emotionally. j

Lazy Man's Filibuster
Goes on in Illinois House
Springfield, 111. (U.R) A
lazy man's filibuster, in which
the filibusterers don't actually
filibuster, dragged into its fourth
day in the Illinois House today.
Two downstate representa
tives had hit on a way of tieing
up the House without doing
much talking.
Asks House Bills Read '
All Democrats Paul Zeigler
and John Morris had to do was
stand up and say "Mr. Speaker,
I now ask that House Bill (pick
a number) be read in full."
The House clearks then took
over for the filibuserers, reading
as quickly as 'possible through
bills which ran as long as a doz
en pages.
Then Zeigler and Morris re
peated the process.
The technique, permitted by
the state constitution, has held
House action to a crawl since
Tuesday. Sessions have lasted
into the early morning hours and
tempers have become frayed as
the legislators try to wait each
other out.
Want Bill Amended .
, Zeigler and Morris said they
would keep it up until the House
amends a bill it has already
passed which would channel
some state funds into the build
ing of a giant Chicago conven-'
tion hall.
The filibusterers and other
"downstate" representatives ob
ject that county fairs in rural
areas should get the money. ,
House . Speaker Warren L.
Wood adjourned the session late
Thursday night, snapping "I'm
not running a vaudeville show."
But the weary affair was due to
start again today.
Czechs Broadcasting
Western Dance Music
Vienna (U.R) Communist
Czechoslovakia, apparently
bowing to popular demand, has
started . broadcasting western
style dance music for the' first
time since the Reds seized pow
er there in 1948.
For seven years the Czech
radio denounced jazz, swing and
other popular western music as
"decadent" and "a form of Amer
ican corruption." But a few
weeks ago .Radio Peiping started
to throb again with familiar
dance tunes, including U. S.
favorites.
The station now devotes about
two hours of its broadcasting
day .to dance music, all of it
played by Czech studio orches
tras. One of the bandleaders
mentioned by name is Karel
Vlach, who previously had been
criticized by the Communists
for his "bad musical influence."
Observers here long have re
garded American popular music
as one of the most successful
U.S. propaganda exports to Iron
Curtain lands. Mailbags at Vien
na radio stations bulge with rec
ord requests from behind the
Curtain. The Czech decision to
resume the broadcast of dance
music was viewed as an attempt
to draw listeners away from
western stations.
The quality of the Czech stu
dio orchestra is good.
Bacteria Found
Dental Decay Cause
Chicago (U.R) Experiments
with rats have proved that bac
teria are the primary cause ef
dental decay, according to an
article in the Journal of the
American Dental Association.
The article said teams of sci
entific investigators . from the
University of Chicago and the
University of Notre Dame stud
ied germ-free' rats housed in
specially devised chambers.
The animals were divided into
three groups. One group was
kept germ free. The mouths of
the rats in the second group
were swabbed with enterococous
bacteria. The third group was
hot housed in germ-free cham
bers but raised in normal germ
laden environment.
AU three groups were fed a
tooth-decay inducing diet which
included a glucose or sugar-
water solution. '
At the end of the 150-day test
period, it was found that despite
the special diet, the germ-free
animals in the first group were
completely without dental de
cay( whereas every member of
the other groups developed cavi
ties. "It became apparent," the sci-
entists said, "that caries of the
teeth must be primarily a bac
terial disease."

Comment On This and That
By HARMAN W. NICHOLS
UnifrttJ PrM tatr Wrir
A
Harman Nichols
Washington (U.R) When
you drop a dime into a pay tele
phone slot, don't cuss out the in-
ventor. This
fellow didn t
die rich. In
fact, William
Gray of Hart
f o r d, Conn.,
who thought
up the pay
phone, finally
sold his rights
for S5000.
That's rather
interes ting
when you con
sider that in 1954, the coin tele
phones provided 6.7 per cent
of all billings in the Bell Sys
tem, $351,050,000. In Washing
ton, the pay as you call business
added up to 7.9 per cent of all
business, and in the Manhattan
area of New York, it was 9:5
per cent.
Gray's invention now is on ex
hibit in the lobby of the Depart
ment ' of Commerce building
here.
Desperate Idea
Gray invented the pay phone
in a fit of desperation. As the
story goes, in 1889, the young
man had occasion to get hold of
a doctor on the telephone. He
cranked the old-time phone on
the wall, equipped with batteries
and magnetos and people listen
ing in and worse than that, but
ting in.
Gray, it is said, went to an
Underwood typewriter plant
four blocks away to make a call.
The Underwood man had a pri
vate phone and let Gray use his
private talking piece.
So then and there, Gray de
cided that . everyone ought to
have a private phone, even if
he had to pay for it.
Gray's invention was unique..
Mr. G. was no dummy. He fig
ured that very few people had
three arms, and his gimmick
called for some gymnastics. It
worked like this.
First you put the dime in with
the left hand. With the other
hand you picked up the cone
shaped ear piece. When you
heard a "howdy" from the ope
rator you released the dime and
pushed a little bell, two hands
still busy. And, when the party
of the second part answered,
you jiggled a little lever down
with the elbow. Contact was
made. You had the right num
ber if the operator was alert
and, ask any operator, they al
ways are.
First Chest Protector
Gray, as I said, didn't get rich
on this one, although a lot of
other people did. Neither did he
get fat on his chest protector
for catchers and umpires.
Bill Gray, in his tender years.
was a catcher. He got so sore
and mad about coming down
with broken ribs from wild pit
ches that he invented what prob
ably was the first chest protector
for catchers and umpires.
Gray was thinking more of
catchers than umpires when he
invented the chest protector. It
was a ribbed thing, filled with
cotton, and stuffed full of air
via an old-fashioned bicycle
pump before each game. In the
old days, a good bump in the
chest protector invented by our
boy Gray would not knock the
wind out of the catcher or the
umpire, but games galore de
layed while a new stock of air
was added to the ribbed, cotton
affair.
Damage Action Cites
Automobile Accident
Guerino N. Cavalli is the de
fendant in a $10,487.78 damage
suit brought in circuit court here
by Joseph P. Zash, according to
records on file in the county
clerk's office.
Zash asks $10,000 general
damages for alleged injuries re
ceived April 14 of this year in
an automobile accident at the
intersection of Main and Grape
streets.
The complaint declares that
Zash was in a vehicle which was
struck from the rear by a ve
hicle operated, by Cavalli. It
charges that the accident was
caused by negligence on the part
of the defendant.
Graduates Working
Outside Major Fields
Ann Arbor, Mich. ' (U.R)
Outside of professional school
graduates, only 38 per cent of
college graduates go to work in
the fields they majored in.
A recent study at the Univer
sity of Michigan showed that 96
per cent' of medical and dental
students went on to a profession
al career in their fields, but
only graduates in the earth scien--
ces also tended to follow up
their studies with related car
eers. The Commission on . Human
Resources and Advanced Train
ing, which conducted the study,
said this tendency of graduates
to work outside of their major
fields was a good one. They said
it assures a steady supply of law
yers who also know science,
scientists who , know economics
and economists who know law
The study also showed that 50
per cent of female college grad
uates soon leave their jobs for
marriage. The study said those
who do not usually end up work
ing at sub-professional levels or
as teachers.
