JIow is the traffic situation in
your section? Do you have a
tough time driving to and from
work? Are you aware that
wnong the current leading causes
of stomach tilcers is constant
driving of an automobile through
difficult traffic? Among New
York City taxicab drivers, suf
fering from stomach ulcers is be
coming so prevalent that it is
taking on the aspect of an occu
pational ailment..
Guide to Gals
The most flirtatious, fickle
and unpredictable females of
the Zodiac are those born under
.Gemini (May 21-June 20). Ge
mini girls usually have at least
five engagements before they
finally decide on a man to marry.
Even after that Gemini women
usually marry twice or more
The Duchess of Windsor is a Ge
mini. A man who has a deep and
affectionate interest in a Gemini
never knows when he is going
to unexpectedly find himself
carrying the torch. Or, so say
the stargazers.
Fashion Note
So Schiaparelli, the darling of
Jne Place Vendome, is to design
soyts for men. That should be
really something. Imagine read
ing in a credit part of a theater
program: "Socks by Schiapa
relli." I am afraid, however, I
will be unable to personally fea
ture any Schiaparelli socks. The
day I graduated from high school
I promised my Uncle Al never
to carry a brief case, play a three
horse parlay or wear fancy socks.
Passing By
"Toots Shor. Justly popular
restaurateur. A very interesting
fellow. Has a genius for restau
rant management. A very lively
wit and is skilled at repartee. He
has a lovely wife and family and
is a fine husband and father but
his knowledge of baseball is
greatly overestimated. Let's face
it. How can you respect the opin
ion of a man who insists that Joe
Di Magio was a better outfielder
than Zack Wheat?
Infants
How much did your first baby
weigh at birth? How much at the
age of six months? The weight of
a baby at age of six months is
usually double what it was at
birth. However, there are some
outstanding exceptions. A re
markable infant named Stephen
Cantelli of West Somerville,
Mass., weighed seven pounds at
birth and 25 pounds, 12 ounces
at the age of six months. So the
six month old Stephen more
than tripled his birth weight. Is
it a record?
Asking
Queries from Clients: Q.
Which Marquis of Queensbury
originated the boxing rlues and
when? I claim the Marquis origi
nated the three-minute round
and the 24 foot ring. A. John
Sholto Douglas, eighth Marquis
of Queensbury framed the box
ing rules in 1865, the principal
changes from the old rules being
the use of gloves, the 24 foot
ring and the three-minute round
... Q. Is the next "P" hurricane
to be called Pauline? A. No,
ma'am. The "P" hurricane is to
be called Peggy. Following are
names selected for rest of hurri
canes of 1955: Linda, Martha,
Nelly, Ona, Peggy, Queena,
Rosa. Stella, Trudy, Ursa, Verna,
Wilma, Xenia, Yvonne and
Zelda.
Minors
Not only is it illegal to sell
a minor alcoholic liquor but it is
against the law to give an under
age person alcoholic liquor. If a
minor is served with a drink at a
cocktail party the host can be
arrested and subjected to a fine
or imprisonment or both. Many
under age women are very
clever at making themselves ap
pear much older and have no
hesitation in lying about their
aee to eet a few drinks. All per-
sons over 21 should have iden
tity cards establishing the fact.
Or drinking licenses, available
only to those over 21, should be
issued.

Science May Be Hear

Washington (U.F3 Man may

other worlds exist in space be

Dr. Helen S. Hogg, astronomer
of the National Science Founda
tion, told the United Press that
this could well be "one of the
great scientific events" of the
coming decade.
She said at least two observa
tories are searching intensively
for "gravitational proof" that the
nearer stars possess planets like

Most Retired People
Detroit (U.P.) Dr. Ferdi
nand Mauser, chairman of he
department of marketing at
Wayne university, said the wide
ly held idea that people look for
ward to retirement so they can
start taking things easy just isn't
so.
Mauser, who directed a recent
study of persons over 65, said
that of the 144 people interview
ed 91 had to retire and 51 of
those wanted to continue o
work but could not because of
company or union policy.

tiny and too dim to be viewed
directly by even the greatest
telescopes now in existence.
Interested in Work
Mauser said interviews indi
cated that persons over 65 have
a strong need to retain identifi
cation through work, if only on
a part-time basis. Nearly half
said they were interested in do
ing community and charity work
even though it offered no salary,
he said. There were "strong in
dications" that security extends
far beyond financial aspects.
"The chief worry in the over
65 group is isolation the loss
of feeling of belonging," he concluded.

This is just one of the ways you're way
ahead with new Chevrolet trucks! They're
the most modern trucks built today!
And that holds good under the hood!
These handsome huskies offer you the
shortest stroke V8's in any leading
truck. That means less piston travel per
mile for longer engine life. Or, you can
have the most modern valve-in-head six

Other Worlds Exist in Outer Space
Assuming science does estab
lish gravitational proof of plan
ets outside the Sun's system, will
man ever perfect the means ac
tually to see them? The United
Press put the question to Hogg
and some others who have
thought about the difficulties
involved. Their comment fol
lows: Hogg: "That will be quite an
order." Atmospheric turbulence
is the big obstacle now. But sup
pose the rocket men succeed in
setting up a space laboratory
outside the atmosphere? In that
event "there would be some
wonderful discoveries."
Prof. George Gamow of
George Washington University:
"There is very little hope (of
seeing other worlds) with the
instruments we have now. But
nothing is impossible."

As of now, however, about all

in the reasonably near future is
that there are other planetary
systems in the regions of space
closest to the Sun.
