o G Properly RIghfs Of Unborn Child Upheld by Court Salem (UP.) The Oregon Su preme Court has ruled that an unbci child has property rights under which suit may be brought In liis name for damages. The court, affirming Multno mah County Circuit Judge Charles W. Redding, ruled that a cause of action exists for in- while still an unborn child. It was the first time the question had come before the high court. Dorthie E. Mallison, on be half of Anita Hallison, brought suit against Wayne L. Pomeroy Suffered Injuries Qln behalf of Anita, the claim was made she suffered injuries resulting in cerebral palsy when Pomeroy's car struck the rear of the car in which the expect ant mother was seated. After noting that early deci sions elsewhere denied liabil ity under such circumstances, the court observed a changing trend among courts of last resort generally, and said that in Ore gon, the separate entity of an unborn child is recognized by statutes protecting him in his property rights and against u criminal conduct. 8 The court, in an opinion writ er ten by Justice Earl C. Latour- r ette, concluded there was no logical reason why a child u should not be protected for in juries sustained through the acts of another. Televised Trial Halts Town Business Waco, Tex.

Comment On This and That By HARMAN United PrMf Washington U.P.) The Uni ted States Mine Workers are great one at telling folks what to do even when it comes to dressing up old bones for the grub board. Thanksgiv ing, of course, is gone But the U M W Journal wants the wives of miners, and Harman Nichols others, to know that Christmas and New Years are coming up. A lot of fowl will be eaten, and a lot of left-overs will be around. Justin McCarthy, editor of the Journal, is a hater of waste. So he sicked his food editor onto a mission of finding some tasty recipes for things that might be left on the bones. The young lady did a pretty good job. She paged the De partment of Agriculture, a few hotels. More important, she also had the good sense to call on some miners wives. These ladies didn't have to shop around for recipes. They made up most of them them selves. The one I like best came from the spouse of a miner in South ern Illinois' Sbe prettied up the bones by calling her dish "tur key mousee. ,W. NICHOLS Fwlyr Writer It goes something like this: One and one-half teaspoons (one-half envelope unflavored gelatin), three teaspoons cool water,' one cup well-seasoned turkey stock, one-half teaspoon vinegar or lemon juice, dash of cayenne, one cup of cubed, cooked turkey, one cup of sliced celery, one pimento, finely chopped, one-half cup heavy cream. Soften gelatin in cold water. Heat stock to boiling. Add soft ened gelatin. Stir until dis solved. Add vinegar, salt and cayenne. Cool. Stir in turkey meat, celery, pimento. Correct for seasoning. Chill until of a soft jelly consistency. Whip cream. Fold in turkey mixture. Pour into a lightly greased IVis pint salad mold. Chill until firm. Unmold on salad greens on platter. This . concoction will serve six. And did you ever hear of tur key salad? v Well, all you have to do is to take two cups of churned up leftover turkey, one-fourth cup of green peppers, chopped; one half cup of salted almonds, mayonnaise to mix, one-half cup chopped celery, one-half cup white seedless grapes, cut, with chopped parsley for top ping. " - Combine ingredients, season if necessary with salt and pepper (this is a good time for the old man to come in for a taste) chill and serve on lettuce. Serve with hot biscuits and cooked peas, cranberry sauce and plenty of hot coffee. The UMW food editor would have us men folks know what every housewife knows that nothing is better than turkey hash when "you boil the bones and get a good rich stock." "Scalloped turkey" is another tempting dish the UMW called "mouth-melting good." You use left-over dressing, flavored with a bit of sage and celery, salt, and has a sauce of custard-like consistency. And then there are things like "turkey and noodle scallop," "broccoli-turkey casserole," "tur key stew with dumplings," and plain old "turkey soup."

AND Special Active Dry Delivered FRESH by BORDEN Pocifk Umm OivUioo Blind Couple Probably To Get Along a Little Better Now, Thanks To President Gettysburg, Pa. (U.R) "In dependence," said Bob Johnson who probably will enjoy a little more of it now thanks to Presi dent Eisenhower, "is a wonder ful thing." Bob is blind. His face, after 35 operations, still twisted and scarred from a German mortar blast at-Saarbrucken on March 15, 1945. "Sure, I spent four years in the hospital. And I'm not going to win any beauty contests. But I'm happy," Bob told a reporter. Until last yesterday nobody much had heard about Robert L. Johnson, 32, his pretty wife, the same age and also blind, and the rug-weaving business they are just beginning to build. Down the Road . . Then President and Mrs. Eis enhower, who live about seven miles away and on the opposite side of town, decided the John sons needed a lift. They told Press Secretary James C. Hager ty to get their story and tell it where the most people would hear in the White House Press Room, temporarily located here. Bob told his story to news men. He was a truck driver bsfore the war, a native of Falls Church, Va. Wounded after three months in Europe, he came home to four years and endless operations in the Valley Forge, Pa., Army Hospital. Betty, blind all her life, was there entertain ing, on piano and accordion. They were married soon after his discharge, as a technical sergeant, in 1949. Egg Business Failed Back home' in Gettysburg, they first tried to raise chickens and sell eggs. A friend told the Eisenhowers, and several weeks ago a Secret Service man showed up to buy eggs. By then, though, the egg bus iness had failed. Raising chick ens was a little too much for people unable to see. But Bob told the White House agent about a new loom, and the rugs he and Betty were beginning to weave. Until two days ago, that was that. Then there was a knock on the door. It was Mrs. Mary Jane McCaffree, secretary to the President's wife. She liked the Johnson's small rugs, and bought three. The rugs are cotton, 28 inches by foir feet. The price is $4 per rug. Nylon is $1 extra, and on mail orders the buyer pays postage. The address is Robert L. Johnson, RFD. 5, Gettysburg, Pa.
