Get It Right Did George Washington throw a silver dollar across the Poto mac? He didn't. Get it riant. He threw a stone, not a silver dol lar, across a river. That river was the Rappahannnock.

Austrian border officials said Thursday "considerable dam age" has been caused in several Austrian border villages where a stiff wind has spread the flames to some estates and houses.

Extra Husbands In Tibet many women have more than one husband. Some have five or six. Husbands not only support the wife they share but take care of all the house work. There is no particular ex cess of males in Tibet, so the good looking girls get all the husbands and the others are left out in the cold to pass their lives as spinters. It must be an extremely depressing e x p e r i ence for a Tibetan spinster to pass another woman out walk ing with her six husbands. t.u.p pasaesmnisWvsiiiHsWWsiasiss.-. , ' V ft J&rwn m.
