    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

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.

Right Place. Right Time
Marguerite, a langorous beau

big brown eyes, began her unus

place at the right time." She was
visiting her brother writer Speed
Lamkin, in Hollywood and he
took her to a party given by au

Anna Magnani (Speed and Mar

"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

in the St. Regis Hotel and this
cost them more than Barbara
