hemical Change i Blood Cells of lenfal Patients Chicago (U.R) Three Uni riity of Illinois scientist! have ported signs of an abnormal mical change in the red blood lis of certain mental patients. The findings were the latest covered in a study begun in 50 and based on the possibility at there may be some bioche ical abnormality in the blood lis of schizophrenics. The discovery was described ' Dr. Ivan Boszormenyi-Magy, rv Francis Gerty and Jacquel e Kueber in a paper presented the 105th annual meeting of American Medical associa in. bnormalily Found The authors are members of e Neuropsychiatric institute, Diversity of Illinois College of edicine. They said they have found an normality in the way digestive izymes in the blood of schizo- irenics react to radioactive osphorus. This could prove of lignifi nce in diagnosing medical 111 58 in the future, they said, and hat represents a "fundamen lly different" approach to the idily aspects of mental disease. The findings threw additional pport to the belief that a physl- ogical basis will be found for hizophrenia. This view was ex- essed recently by several me- cal scientists at the annual con ation of the American Psychi ric association. luality Housing alk Said Needed Chicago U.R "Ifs time to op talking about the need for linimum' housing, and focus tention on greater quality,' cording to Walter H. Dreier, esident of the United. States ivings and Loan league. The league is spearheading a ive for higher home building id planning standards, and rep- sents the nation's savings and an associations, which finance arly two-fifths of all homes irehased in this country. "Obsolescence is running ore rapidly than at any time our history," Dreier said. "We rtainly all know of eommuni s where houses are being built at are obsolete virtually as sn as they are completed." Dreier asserted that the hous l shortage is over and added t the next few years will see ireasingly intensive competi n in the home building field. Dreier urged a stepping-up of forts on the part of the home iiding industry to produce a itter home for less money, to rrect building codes that add the cost of producing a house ithout increasing its quality, id to eliminate Inefficiencies in e home producing process. "We won't want the homes e finance today and the corn- unities we help to create to he me immediately obsolete- and gin degrading into the slums S. 10 and 13 years from now," reier said. Studies by the league, he stat- 1, on such matters as neighbor lod and lot planning, better sign and higher construction andards, are already under- ay. nswer Given for Heeding' Potatoes Ames, la. U.PJ If you won- ir why red potatoes seem to 'leed" when put into boiling iter, an Iowa State College irticulturist says he has the e answer. . ZL S. Haber. head ol the horti- ilture department at the college ys that the color comes from red dye used to make pota es look fresher and to cover 1411 defects. Since potatoes fade during rage, the color dye is more ible to be used in late winter d early spring, near the end of e storage season, Haber said. He said that the cost of waxing two cents per 100-pound bag potatoes. However, he said, e consumer's increase may be much as SO cents. Haber said that the only sure ly to avoid the waxed potatoes to buy russet or white pota- . whites are never waxed, said.

Italy Proposes To Sterilize Mongrels Rome (U.R) Italy's dog lovers were up in arms today about a proposed law that would order sterilization of all mon grel dogs. Milanese Deputy Cesare Dagli Occhi, one of five deputies who signed the projected bill, s'aidj he had received hundreds of let ters protesting the use of "Nazi methods" to Italy's dogs. The situation was aggravated by a recent order of the Rome mayor that all dogs in the city be kept on a leash at all times when in the streets. The dogs already are muzzled. The idea of the sterilization law would be to curb rabies which is rampant in Italy and to cut down the number of stray dogs. BRITISH EXPORTS RISE London (U.R) British exports soared to a new record level last month and the trade gap narrowed to the lowest figure in two and one-half years, ac cording to government statistics. Two Men Drown At Lookout Point Eugene (U.R) Two men drowned in Lookout Point Dam reservoir about 23 miles south east of here yesterday when their boat upset in the middle of the deep lake behind the Wil lamette river dam. The victims were .George Mid dleton, about 40, and Eugene Hyatt, about 26, both of Hem lock, a town near Westfir.

He told state police that the party had set out from the south side of the lake to cross the lake to the railroad siding of Minnow, about two miles above the Lowell junction. He said when the boat reach ed the middle of the lake it cap sized. One of his companions came up and he shouted to him to swim to the boat, Thompson said, but the victim was unable to stay afloat. The other man never appeared above the sur face of thewater, he said. He told officers the tragedy occurred about 1 p.m. yesterday. State police managed to pull Thompson from the water about 3:20 p.m. Water where the boat capsiz ed is about 150 feet deep. Schrunk Requests Time Correction Portland (U.R) Multnomah County Sheriff Terry Schrunk said today that he had sent a letter to the publishers of Time Magazine requesting a correc tion or retraction of a statement made in the issue of Time of June 4. Schrunk was mentioned in an article in Time's press section which described the Oregonian's series of articles about vice in the Portland area. His letter to Time said the magazine's reference to him was "incorrect and untrue." The Oregonian said no such statement about Schrunk, attrib uted to the newspaper by Time, was made in its series of articles Wednesday, June IS. 19S8 KEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUHE TKRT Around Hollywood By ALINE MOSBY United Press ConasponJut Hollywood (U.R) Eva Gabor once wrote a book, "Or chids and Salami" because that was all she kept in her icebox. But to day the young est of the Ga bors has re formed she's taken up food. The beauti ful Eva now is a settled down house- Aline Mosby wife, leaving only her sister, Zsa Zsa Gabor, still in the carefree single category. She says she'll marry contractor Hay Hayes but her pals still are waiting. I never thought I'd live to see a domesticated Gabor. This one even invited me over to a home cooked lunch. Sure enough, there was Eva in the kitchen making chicken paprika, string beans and a huge salad that in cluded raw cauliflower. Early Efforts Failed "I never cooked before I was married," cooed Eva as she put tered around her kitchen. "Once I tried but two pages of the re cipe book stuck together so I used two recipes. It was terrible. "After I was married I just started cooking. There's nothing wrong with a woman in a kitch en. My friends go into hysterics about this but I like it. I'm even making one TV appearance be cause they offered me a deep freeze. "But I never wear an apron. I cook in very pretty outfits. An apron looks so house-frau-ish." Career Transferred Eva insists she has transferred her career to Hollywood so she can be with her surgeon hus band. Comedian Johnny Carson has hired Eva to read the weath er reports and baseball scores on his daytime TV show, although she calls her stint merely "chat ting with him." "Im going east for some sum mer stock but John doesn't mind if I leave him for a. month," chattered the glamorous cook. "Actresses always should marry doctors. They understand us very well. Their hours are just as mixed up." The youngest Gabor even shops for her own groceries but this, she explained, is because Los Angeles supermarkets are "chic." "The ones in New York are not," she said, "but in California I meet everyone I know at the butcher's." Town About To Lose Shadow of Old Debt Walnut Cove, N. C. This town went bankrupt when its plans for growth and expan sion nearly 30 years ago failed to materialize. For almost 20 years the town's tax rates and financial matters have been directed by a federal court. But the shadow of the old debt is about to be removed. Under a new plan, the town will issue $211,300 in bonds to pay off the old debts that piled up back in the 1920 s. When this is done, the town's financial control will be restored by the courts. The new bonds will be sold by the North Carolina Local Govern ment Commission. Walnut Cove floated large bond issues anticipating indus trialization and becoming a rail road center in the 1920 s. But the railroads passed it by. Bond holders brought suit against the town in the 1930's, seeking to collect. As late as Sept. 1, 1954, the town's old debts still totaled $639,095. Walnut Cove has a population of only 1,200. The federal court set the town's tax rates and slowly be gan guiding the town out of bankruptcy.
