Drought-Resistant Range Grass Sought Austin, Tex. (U.R) Univer sity of Texas scientists are on the trail of a drought-resistant rangeland grass able to grow in underdeveloped soil on lime stone hills. A recent report by Drs. Wal ter V. Brown and W. Gordon Whaley said the University of Texas' plant research institute is making definite progress in a search for new grasses and le gumes specifically adapted to southwestern ranges. Plants of side-oats grama one of the important southwest ern forage grasses show prom ise of producing a strain that grows well in winter or even the year asound. Researchers say they hope to develop a drought-resistant hairy grama that will grow in the under-developed soils blanketing limestone hills. Other studies indicate good possibilities "for evolving a bristle-grass that remains green well into the Texas summer. O O GO f pifwlWi iiires 60,000 mile a year.

Written for Uniled Prtis New York (U.R) A hangover? I've never had one in my life. And let me tell you, I like to celebrate New Year's Eve just like the next guy. I've been tending bar for 45 years and as I see it, the reason most drinkers wind up with New Year's Day hangover is that their approach isj if I may use the word, cock-eyed. They don't know how to prepare for the big occasion, what to drink or even how to drink. Some drink ers are even foolish enough to take their cars out with them. Actually, preparing' for New Year's Eve is pretty simple. The first rule is to get some rest be fore you go out you have the whole evening ahead of you, so try to take a nap for an hour or two before you start any cele brating. Have a Good Meal What you eat for dinner is pretty important, too. Treat yourself to a good, heavy meal steak is probably the best, with all the trimmings. The more you fill your stomach up with good nourishing food, the better able your stomach will be to ab sorb the alcohol you pour down yourself. Next, there's the drinking. As far as I'm concerned, I like to drink champagne. The second! best, I think, is Scotch and wa ter. But any good whiskey with plain water should keep you from getting sick. There are three good rules to remember in drinking. One, stay away from sweet mixes. Two, stay away from sweet, compli cated drinks. And third, don't mix your drinks thats' a cer tain way to wind up sick. Eat while you are drinking, it slows down the guzzling. Ai a matter of fact, if you guzzle just for the sake of getting loaded on New Year's Eve you're foolish not only because it'll make you ill, but because you're not showing much appreciation for good liquor. Dancing Helps Dancing is a good idea, too, while you're celebrating. It helps you burn off the alcohol, and like eating, slows down the guzzling. Knowing when to stop is one of the most important rules to observe. There's no hard and fast rule for this some people should stop after two drinks, some can polish off a dozen drinks without showing it. But there are some danger signs. If you're the silent type who suddenly starts talking a lot, it's time to stop. If you're a talker and suddenly go silent, it's time to stop. I've seen all kinds of drunks in my years of tending bar there are the singers and the table-hoppers, there are the bot tle throwers and the arguers, and there are the kissing bugs. All of them are people who just don't know when to stop. And many of them frequently wind up with one red eye and one black eye on New Year's Day. Eat Again Before Sleep Before you turn in for the night, or the morning, it's a pretty good idea to eat again. I like milk with stale bread just crumble some bread or rolls about two weeks old in a milk bowl. Or if you like, try a good substantial sandwich with coffee or milk. If despite all hi, you -ind up with a hangOTer, try hi lot a cure: A glass ef lialJ milk ni3 half cream with a coupla of raw eggs beaten into it. Or tfy aating as much ice cream as you cm, But stay away from a "haip f the dog' that's little likt pouring gasoline on a bonftra. Follow these rules ant it ?ttl- iy will b a happy New Yaa not only for you, but to M?- tenders like me. em houses.
