Element Role in Animal Nutrition Subject of Study Ithaca, N.Y. U.Ri The role of three trace elements copper, cobalt, and manganese in an imal nutrition has been the sub ject of a study by Prof. S E Smith of the New York State College of Agriculture. Smith said that in the animals so far studied a lack of copper leads to anemia; this mechanism "is one of nature's most closely guarded secrets." When copper is deficient in the diet of ruminant animals, particularly sheep. Smith added, they suffer wide-spread destruc tion of the central nervous sys tem and perish, or live after wards with locomotion handi caps. 'Unfortunately," he added, "gray hair in man has other causes and will not respond to copper therapy." D.T.lopt Poor Appetiti.i Many soils of the world have inadequate supplies of cobalt wnich is reflected in forage crops, he said. Animals grazed under such conditions develop poor appetites in the midst of plenty, lose weight, and suffer an anemia. Smith said the mer est trace of cobalt will prevent those symptoms. Smith said that ruminant ani mals deficient" in cobalt will re spond quickly to vitamin E-12, a cobalt-containing compound. Managancse. Smith noted, is concerned in bone formation in ways which have not been fully explained yet. In chickens, man ganese deficiency has been found to be the cause of the leg ab normality termed "porosis." and it appears also in the form of poor egg "hatchability" and ab normal chicks. Among rabbits, he said, there young do not survive more than few weeks, and a manganese deficient diet also results in weak and crooked bone.

McCall Writes "The four southern states that voted Republican in 1952." says Editor Ralph McGill of the At lanta (Ga.) Constitution, "learn ed a bitter lesson." He feels "....that region generally lumped together as 'The South' will be a unit in its support of the Democratic nominees." Famed lyricist Oscar Hammer stein, discussing administration "government by lullaby," says "It would seem that the indepen dent voter can better his hopes by supporting Stevenson rather than accept the discouraging Ex-Medford Residents Adopt Korean Orphan Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Sexton, Coos Bay. formerly of Medford, have adopted one of the Korean orphans to come to this country under the auspices of Henry Holt, Creswell farmer.

Rainier, Grace Stop Show at White House Washington OI.Ri Their se rene highnesses, the Prince and Princess of Monaco, were show stoppers at the White House. The scene was not serene. President Eisenhower, their host, seemed to get a little flus tered. White House staff workers played hookey from their desks to see the former Hollywood actress and her prince walk through the White House lobby. People stood outside the White House gates. In short, the place where the great and super-great drop by, particularly in election years, got an extra bang Thursday out of the royal couple. f Within 43 minutes, the Philadelphia-born Grace and Prince Rainier had posed a half dozen times for photographers, chatted with the president and held two news conferences at the White House.

"Tennessee said to Kazan that I was just like the girl in 'Cat'," Marguerite explained in her lilt ing drawl. "They said I should come to New York while they did the play, just to be around them. "I spent a lot of time talking with Barbara about her role. I advised Kazan as to what her family should be like, and how a well-born, rebellious southern girl would behave. I wrote the lyrics for a song in the play and I'd never worked in the theater before! i "I asked no salary, only ex penses," she added. "But I lived in the St. Regis Hotel and this cost them more than Barbara Bel Geddes' salary.
