Soviet Officials
Plan Poland Trip
London (U.Ri Warsaw radio
reported Saturday that a Soviet
delegation headed by Premier
Nikolai Bulganin will arrive
shortly in Poland. It will be the
first visit by top-level Russians
since the Poznan "food and free
dom'' riots.
The broadcast said the Soviet
officials would participate in
Polish National Day celebrations
in Warsaw. National Day is of
ficially celebrated in Pcland
July 22nd Sunday.
The broadcast monitored in
London did not say exactly when
Bulganin and his party would
arrive. However, it was presum
ed they would be on hand for
Sunday's parades and festiv
ities. It would be the first visit by
leading Soviet officials to Pol

Westerners heard demonstra

Police Arrest Man
After 10-Mile Chase
Klamath Falls (U.R) A 21-year-old
ex-convict who Jed po
lice on a 90-mile-an-hour chase
for 10 miles was arrested by
state police Friday night near
Olene. Ore.
John Francis Jennings began
his wild run from the police in
a residential area of Klamath
Falls, took the highway to Olene.
about eight miles southwest of
Klamath Falls, where he ran a
roadblock. Later he was stalled
by a freight train at a railroad
crossing and veered off into a
deadend road where he was ar
rested by police.
Jennings was released from
the federal prison at McNeil
Island last November. Previous
to that he had served time in
prison at El Reno, Okla.
House Approves Bill
For Washoe Project
Washington '.U.R) The House
Saturday approved a compro
mise bill to authorize the $43.7
million Wr a s h o e Reclamation
Project in Nevada-California.
The Senate still must act on
the bill as worked out by a
House - Senate conference committee.
Is That So?
Thij morning I picked up the
telephone, placed a call to a
friend in Oslo, Norway, and
within five minutes this modern
invention permitted me to ex
change ideas within him. Re
markable, what?
Well, possibly. But I'm spoil
ed. Now if every one in our re
spective countries say some
200.000.000 could have picked
up their phones simultaneously
and listened in and were able
to respond, then that might be
something.
For you see, the infinite comp
lexities of the communications
system within our own bodies
are much more complicated. By
day and by night, hundreds of
thousands of messages shuttle
through our billions of cells
not just millions telling our
7-l.t-sa
heart when to beat our arms
when to move, our lungs when
to inhale, our togues when to
talk, our nose when to sneeze,
our hands when to salt food.
Just take our five senses
vision, hearing smell, taste and
touch. (Besides that we also
sense pain, pressure, heat, cold,
position of our limbs, the bal
ance of our body, the motion of
our body, thirst, hunger, sleep
...and many others which we
do not sense, when to digest our
food, when our heart should
beat faster, our cheeks flush).
All right then, our tongue. It
has 3.000 taste buds, each w ith
its individual nerve connection
to the brain. These taste buds
sends messages via electrical im
pulses we now believe, to the
brain through closed circuits.
The brain correctly interprets
these messages: the food is sour,
bitter, sweet or salty. The brain
interprets the message, then ar
rives at a judgment; the steak
needs salt, the potatoes are too
peppery, the sauce is too sweet,
the peas are just sweet enough.
Or our ears. They have 100,
000 listening cells. In each one
a minute nerve-end picks up a
particular sound frequency and
starts vibrating, waving like a
straw of grass in the wind. This
starts a current flowing a cur
rent so exceedingly feeble that
it would have to be amplified a
thousand times or more to be
detected. As it travels along, the
same impetus, however weak, is
maintained. When fed into the
brain it is identified as a musi
cal note, perhaps. Or a medley
of these messages tell us we are
listening to a neighbor's voice
a car's horn, a pet parakeet's
chirp.
Collected in Brain
Or our eyes. Each of these
wonderful organs has 130,000,
000 light receptors which send
groups of impressions to the
brain. So we see the spread of
autumn foliage across the land
scape, and then these groups are
collected in the brain, we evi
dence a feeling of joy and ap
preciation. Or our skin. It too contains a
vast network of information
gathering centers. Perhaps 5,
000,000 or more. There are
some 4,000.000 pain points: 500,
pressure points: 1.500,000 cold
points; 16,000 hot points. If the
room it too hot, the 16,000 hot
points instruct the 3.000.000
sweat glands to start a flow of
cooling perspiration. Step into a
cold shower, and 150.000.000
spots tell you about it and the
body at once starts shivering,
skin arteries dilate, and new
blood hurries to provide more
heat.
Once our nerves deliver the
message, there is a curious re
action one set of nerves sends
out the message to spring into
action; another set also sends
out a message to dampen or
inhibit action. This controls our
actions, enabling us to rise to
furious action when that is
wanted, but yet curbing it and
when the time comes, slowing
down to restore ourselves.
Destroyed for Good
Unlike most other cells in our
body, which divide and multi
ply, the nerves remain constant
we are born wuth our full life
time supply, and once nerve
is destroyed it is destroyed for
good. But they can grow, nat
urally, with the growing body.
How are the messages trans
ferred? By tiny electric "shivers"
through the motor nerves. But
ty EUGENE BURNS
Rjnger-Naturllist
the impluse is so small that it
can carry but a fraction of an
inch and there is hit a "bo
oster" station which recharges
the dying impluse. Carefully
spaced, these relay stations en
able the message to reach the
destination with exactly the
same intensity it had when it
left the point of origin. But all
this, mind you, takes place with
considerable speed: well, any
way, 200 miles an hour!
