After Secretary of State Dulles
underwent surgery at Walter
Reed Hospital, the first thing he
asked when he came to was:
"How did Princeton come
out?"
The secretary was told that
Princeton had licked Brown 21
to 7. Dulles smiled, rolled over
and happily went back to sleep.
Dulles of course, is an old Prince
ton grad.
Secretary of Agriculture Ezra
Taft Benson had his gear packed
and ready to take a trip around
the world when the internation
al crisis developed. He cancelled
out at the last minute because
of the uncertainties of transpor
tation and the world situation.
Nat Wright, an announcer on
a Washington radio station, was
reading a commercial election
night. He was interrupted with
the news that Adlai E. Steven
son had pitched in the towel.
When Nat finally found himself
on the air again, he picked up in
the middle of the commercial.
Said he:
"I wish to apprise the radio
audience that Governor Steven
son conceded between the pep
pers and provolone cheese con
tained in an "Eddie Leonard 'or
iginal' submarine sandwich."
During the election campaign,
Sen. Estes Kefauver, the Demo
cratic "veep" candidate, traveled
65,000 miles by air, train and
everything else but mule-back.
Traveling by plane was tough,
except for the saving of time.
Laundry was the biggest prob-
( lem. So the senator and his help
cooked up a deal for the party,
including the hard - working
press. Dirty shirts and under
wear were sent two towns ahead
of schedule. It worked out pretty
well. On rare occasions when it
failed, nylon shirts were washed
: and hung up in the men's room
! on the plane.
The American Automobile As
sociation was on the job elec
tion day to help get stranded
motorists to the polls. At least
in the D. C. division. Several
hundred AAA members with flat
tires and empty gas tanks were
delivered to the voting booths in
nearby Virginia and Maryland.
Attorney Asks Help
In Locating Daughter
! Springfield. Vt. iU.P.) The
j U.S. attorney for Vermont asked
i police throughout the nation to
day to search for his 18-year old
daughter and an ex-convict
Iwith whom he fears she is
I eloping.
Warrants charging the ex
convict, Richard S. Thatcher of
; Evanston, 111., with obtaining a
j rented car by fraudulent means,
transporting a stolen car across
state lines, and parole violations
were issued.
j Thatcher, thought to be
armed with a hunting rifle, is
believed to have eloped with
Priscilla Whitcomb, Smith Col-
, lege student and daughter of
U.S. Attorney Louis G. Whit
comb of Springfield.
The pair informed Miss Whit
comb's father last week that
' they planned to marry.

Is That So?
Editor's Note: How to take cara

ium Is the third Monday artirle by
Gene Burns for The Mail Tribune.
The biggest job in providing
a proper home for your fish is
to give them the right amount
and kinds of water, light and
air. That's it.
About water: Some fish pre
fer soft water, others chalky,
and many salty, however, tap
water of medium degree of hard
ness will be good for all. But
never use it directly out of the
tap. City water contains chlor
ine to kill harmful germs and it
may kill your fish, too. Besides,
the temperature is usually much
too cold. If you must use city
water, draw it from the faucet
24 hours before using it and put
it in a dish so the chlorine will
pass out of the water and it
becomes room temperature.
Water from a pond or creek,
especially if fish and plants have
been living in it, is good. Rain
water needs a level teaspoonful
of salt to the gallon but use it
only when you empty and clean
out the tank, not when you add

water or the salt concentration
will' become too great. (In evap
oration, the salt remains behind).
Never use water that has been
artificially softened. The only
way to soften water for your
tank is to boil it and then let it
cool. Or add distilled water. And
do not forget to remove the
shells of dead snails.
Goldfish do best in water be
tween 60-70; tropical fish, be
tween 70-80. Do not put in water
of a different temperature a
sudden chance may kill the fish.
Us Sprinkling Can
About filling the tank: To get
the air to mix with the water
as you pour it, use a sprinkling
can. This also keeps the water
from stirring up sand and wastes
from the bottom of the tank. In
lieu of a sprinkling can, pour
water upon a piece of wrapping
paper which covers most of the
surface of the water in the tank.
Gently, so as not to sink the
paper. Fill the tank three-quarters
full to allow air to mix with
water.
Cloudy water usually means
overfeeding. The "cloud" at the
bottom is usually caused by de
caying food. You may need more
plants or a snail or Brazilian cat
fish to clean it up. Should your
water turn green with algae or
get a bad smell a dead plant
may cause the latter, then change
water. But mind, use 24-hour
stored water.
If fish come to the top and
By EUGENE BURNS
Ranger-Naturalist
1 open and close their mouths,
water must be changed almost
immediately. Your fish need
more air. (For such emergencies,
it is good to have a stored jug
of clean water.) To change the
water, syphon it off with a long
rubber tube. But leave suffic
ient water for your fish to be
comfortable while you sprinkle
new water into your aquarium.
To wash the tank, remove your
fish to an emergency bowl in
which water has been standing
for 24 hours. In washing the
tank, never use soap . . . simply
run water in and out, over and
over again, until you're sure that
the tank is clean.
Aquarium Needs Sun
As for light: To keep plants
and fish healthy, the aquarium
should get an hour or two of
sun each day. If electric lights
are used, from 8-10 hours. If the
tank is near a window where
sunlight is strong, pull the shade
during the hottest part of the
day or cover the tank with
lightweight dark monk's cloth,
that's porous. Too much sunlight
can create too much heat in sum
mertime, particularly for gold
fish, or cause plants to produce
an excess of oxygen, causing a
stream of bubbles to rise from
the leaves. Also, it promotes the
growth of harmful algae. The
answer: cut down the amount of
strong light.
During winter, a 10-watt frost
ed white bulb just above the
aquarium can keep the tempera
ture constant between 70-80 de
grees. Finally, the air: You can make
sure your fish gets enough air
by not overcrowding, overheat
ing, overfeeding and by keep
ing the water clean and the tem
perature fairly constant.
