Jazz To Talking
Drums Under Study
Philadelphia U.R) A newly
organized society is Undertaking
a scientific study of all music
ranging from American jazz to
African talking drugs.
The new organization is the
Society for Ethnomusicology,
founded at the recent Fifth In
ternational Congress of Anthro
pological and Ethnological Sci
ences at the University of Penn
sylvania.
The society publishes a news
letter, Ethnomusicology, as a
medium of communication for
scholars in the study of music
all over the world. The publica
tion includes articles, book re
views, listings and news about
recently published records, and

Silver Dollar
Symbol of Vest
Billings, Mont. (U.R) Gun
fights and Indian uprisings may
be relegated to history, but there
is one symbol of the West that
folks in these parts refuse to
give up the silver dollar.
In fact, one local store mana
ger is such an ardent "hard
money" man that he won't let
his clerks "contaminate" the
cash registers with dollar bills.
The lowly paper buck gets the
bum's rush to the bank.
The so-called "cartwheels" are
popular with Montanans for
several reasons. Businessmen be
lieve it's good advertising when
visitors take them back to their
home states to spend the "Mon
tana dollar" always prompts
questions in paper-money areas.
Old-timers, and even some
newcomers, prefer silver dollars
simply because they are handy.
There is no need to reach for a
wallet when there is "clanking
money' 'in your jeans.
Estimates vary, but one gen
erally accepted and verified
by local banks is that silver
dollars are favored over paper
money by ratio of 10 to 1.
Bankers say no merchants will
buy paper dollars, but one bank
ships in 10,000 silver dollars a
week to meet the local demand.
None of the hard money ever
has to be returned to federal
reserve banks.
Shipment of silver dollars into
the state coincides rather closely
with the tourist business. The
peak year for silver dollars
since World War II was 1953
when bankers received $3,838,
833. That also was a record
year for tourist business.
Despite the popularity of the
silver dollar, it does have one
drawback. It's rough on trouser
pockets. Clothing merchants
deny reports they ship in clothes
with reinforced pockets but one
admitted: "It would be a good
idea."
CARRYING CAMPAIGN for presidency into Michigan's
smaller cities, Democratic Candidate Adlai Stevenson gets

SMALL SCHOOL
Bangor, Me. U.R This city,
one of Maine's largest, has ac
credited one of the smallest

chial school of the local Seventh
Day Adventist Church.
MUNCHING MOOSE
Bingham, Me. (U.R) Ferdi
nand tlje Bull wasn't the only
large quadruped with a pen
chant for feasting on flowers.
Oscar Miller, a garageman in
this hunting country town, saw
a moose munching contentedly
on the blooms in Mrs. Victoria
Cahlll's garden Just off tht
business district.
HOT MAIL
Troy, N.Y. flJ.R) Firemen

Long Walk Brings
Swiss To Olympics
Melbourne (U.R) A 42-year-old
Swiss, Ignace Ruegg, ar
rived in Melbourne for the
Olympics the hard way he
walked the 12,000 miles from
Europe.
Ruegg carried a 60-pound pack
the entire distance, was without
water for 38 hours in a Persian
desert and wore out seven pairs
of shoes in his 20-month trek.
The Swiss walker claimed he
had been shot at by terrorists
in Malaya and rescued by a
rubber planter in his home-made
armored car.
"I never would have made It
it if it hadn't been for him,"
Ruegg said. "The Reds had fired
several shots at men and I know
I was a goner unless help ar
rived. Just then the planter ar
rived with his armored car and
picked me up."
Ruegg said the trip cost him
$1,600, and he swears that any
future travels he makes will be
on wheels.

Hay Baler Traps
Owner With Headlock
Tawas Citjj. Mich. (U.R)
Farm equipment experts were
needed to release Eugene Coats
from a harrowing two-hour
headlock in his own hay baler.
The 53-year-old farmer was at
tempting field repairs on his
roll-type hay baler when his
head became wedged in the ma
chine by a shifting casting. The
machine and its captive were
some 100 yards from the high
way. Using a free arm, Coates re
moved a white handkerchief
from his hip pocket and signaled
blindly, hoping to attract a pass
ing motorist.
More than an hour passed be
fore the signal was noticed.
Truck driver Kenneth Alstrom
rushed to the scene. Finding he
was unable to help Coates, he
called the Iosco County sheriff
and state police. But none could
work him free.
Finally, after two hours in
the machine's grip, a farm
equipment dealer arrived with
a crew. They went to work with
their tools and shortly had the
casting removed and Coates
pulled to safety.
Coates was taken to a nearby
hospital and treated for a mild
concussion and shock.
Hands, Wrists Good
Thyroid Checkpoints
Chicago (U.R) Hands and
wrists are good check-points in
determining the adequacy of
thyroid replacement therapy in
infants and children who have
underactive thyroid glands,
Radiology has reported.
The medical magazine's article
on "hypothyroidism" was writ
ten by Dr. Lee B. Lusted, radio
logist with the National Insti
tutes of Health in Bethesda,
Md., and Dr. Donald E. Picker
ing a pediatrician at the Uni
versity of Oregon School of
Medicine.
An X-ray examination of the
hands and wrists has been used
by the two investigators to meas
ure skeletal retardation.
"Doses of hormone which are
sufficient to reverse many clin
ical and metabolic signs of thy
roid deficiency are often inad
equate to promote normal
skeletal maturation," they said.
The X-ray test is then employ
ed to determine if increased
hormone dosage is needed. Such
tests are most useful in earlist
childhood when growth potential
is at a maximum, they added.
