Coffee Suggested for Topper After Holiday Drink if You Drive By DELOS SMITH United Press Science Editor New York U.PJ A scien tist specialized in studying the effects of alcohol on people, sug gested you top off holiday cheer with coffee if you're going to drive a car. Dr. Leon A. Greenberg of Yale University's Center of Al cohol Studies revealed his ex periments have shown that two cups of coffee make a safer driv er out of man or a woman who is "high" on two or three drinks. Nothing Helps Drunks He wasn't talking - about drunks, of course; neither coffee nor anything else can help them. But it isn't the truly drunken who run up highway accident totals over Christmas and New Year, but the "high" drivers. Greenberg is studying the de grees by which alcohol messes up the body functions which O o o o no hidden hunger In this herd ! 3 In this part of the country, lack of essential vitamins, minerals and proteins in roughages can mean a great loss m beef production.

"Visual fusion is the brain function which takes the sepa rate images picked up by the two eyes and fuses them into one. That helps the brain to judge distances instantly and ac curately. In the drunk, Green berg pointed out, this fusion often doesn't take place at all, and the drunk sees double. In the average sober person, according to his laboratory measurements, fusion takes place in about five one-hund redth of a second after the two eyes have focused upon an ob ject. His measurements show that three drinks will lengthen the fusion time to one and one half seconds. In that time a car going at 50 miles an hour ad vances 100 feet. Fusion Time Cut "In our experiments we have found that after two cups of coffee, this fusion time for the three-drink person is cut down again to seven, eight, or nine hundredths of a second or al most normal," Greenberg said in an Interview. His experiments with alcohol and coffee are not yet far enough advanced for concrete measurements, but they now in dicate that coffee also helps side vision which has been nar rowed by the effects of alcohol. Gov. Foss Recalls Memorable Christmas Pierre. S. D. (U.R) Gov. Joe Foss of South Dakota the World War II Marine flying ace remembers as his most mem orable Christmas the one in 1942 at Noumea, New Caledonia. Foss, who was to win the Con gressional Medal of Honor for shooting down 26 Japanese planes the next spring and sum mer, was looking forward to another mess hall dinner that Christmas. And like millions of other soldiers, he wasn't looking forward to that with much pleasure. But, Foss recalled, the pros pects brightened when a French doctor on the island invited eight Marines to his home for Christmas dinner. It was mem orable because the doctor could not speak English, and none of the Marines could speak French. "I never have figured out what he was talking about dur ing dinner," Foss said. But the Marines found that hand motions could be expres sive. "It was a terrific 11-course dinner," Foss recalled. "They brought one course at a time. When I saw what the situation was, I cut down on my portions for each course to have room for them all." The affair, Foss said, was plan ned on the spur of the moment and it was "an unforgettable experience." Repaired Toys Will Be Shown Friday Medford firemen and Medford Lady Lions have extended an in vitation to residents of the com munity to attend their showing of repaired toys from 1 to 7 p.m. Friday at the Franklin warehouse. Third and Fir sts. The toys and dolls were reno vated for distribution as Christ mas gifts for children of needy families.

On The Side Bv E. V. Durlina (Distributed by King Features Syndicate, Inc.) In what family in this country are the most millionaires? Asked that, I said it was Duponts of Delaware. I lost the stogie. It is the Lykes family of Florida, 83 members of which are each worth over $512 million! Asking Queries from clients. Q. How did the wedding invitations for the Kelly-Kanier wedding read? A. "Mrs. and Mrs. John Brandan Kelly request the honor of your presence at the marriage of their daughter Grace Patricia to his Serene Highness the Prince of Monaco." Q. Where in Shake speare is psychoanalysis refer red to? A. The term ' psycho- anlaysis" was orginated by Sig mund Freud in 1896 to describe his method of examination. Freud also orginated the Couch idea. What you probably have in mind is a passage in Shake speare's "Macbeth," which might be assumed to refer to psychi atry. It is the passage in act V, beginning: "Canst thou min ister to a mind diseased . . ." Horses and Women What are the uglist parts of the female figure? The following observation on that question was made by Monsieur Christian Dior: "Bones are never pretty. Knees and elbows are the only places where the bones show on a woman's body and they are ugly. So, women should keep their knees covered. They should always choose a dress which has sleeves that cover the elbow or are else cut off well above them so that atten tion is not drawn to the elbow." Among the Married How much of a handy man are you around the house? To what extent do you help with the housekeeping? When co-operating with your spouse in her domestic duties, do you wear an apron? Anyway, please be in formed that it was Zsa Zsa Gabor who said, "any man who puts on an apron, except in joke, loses his virility." Asides The lucky day for Taurus (April 20-May 20) people is Fri day. Their lucky numbers are two and seven. Or, so say the stargazers . . . This country's most married man is Tommy Manville who has had nine wives. The most married wo man is Mrs. Gabriel Avery of Los Angeles, who has had 14 husbands. She has had 13 di vorces. Prolific Mothers Mrs. Fedor Vassilet, a Rus sian, who died in 1872, had 69 children in 27 confinements. She gave birth to 16 pairs of twins, seven sets of triplets and four sets of quadruplets. One of the most prolific mothers of the present is Mrs. Marie Cyr of Fort Kent, Me., who is now 35. She was married when 17 and has given birth to a child a year. Heredity Some experts on the subject continue to claim hay fever, asthma and baldness are ?ier erditary. Also that the sons of a couple are very likely to bear a strong resemblance in char acter and appearance to the brothers of the wife. I am for tunate in not suffering from any of the three afflictions ore mentioned. So. I cannot check on the claim. As to resembling my mother's brothers, there may be something to that. I have been said to resemble my yncle Al. One resemblance is-that he was, as I am, a eonscientious student of the performances of Boston UR) When Boston Pops Orchestra conductor Ar thur Fiedler came up wifii a sore arm, he visited Jack Fad den, veteran Bston Red Sox and Harvard University trainer. Fiedler said Faddeno had no trouble switching from treating bat st ingers to bato swingers. "Conductors have thejsamqjarm troubles as ball players," giedler o ox said. the thoroughbftd hrse.
