TWELVE KEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE
Wednesday, January 23. 1957
JUST BE BEAUTIFUL Some 200 girls turned up at Hollywood's famed Mocombo in
answer to trade magazine ad which read in part, "Girls, all you have to be is beauti
ful If you can dance . . . great. If you can walk, it will help." The field was nar
rowed to this group who will rehearse for chorus of newest hotel to open in Las
Vegas, Nev., the $15 million Tropicana. Girls are gathered around producer Monte
Proser and actress Jayne Mansfield, who was there "as sort of a guide for the kind of
figure we have in mind," Prose explained.

This Is Whaf Geese
Is, Author Writes
Sacramento, Calif. U.R)
Outdoor California, published by
the California Department of
Fish and Came, reprinted an es
say by a youthful naturalist on
"This Is What a Geese Is," as
follows:
"Geese is a low, heavy set bird
which is mostly meat and feath
ers. His head sits on one side
and he sits on the other. Geese
can't sing much on account of
dampness of the moisture.
"He ain't got not between-the-toes
and he's got a little balloon
in his stummick to keep from
sinking.
"Some geese when they get
big has curls on their tails and
is called ganders. Ganders don't
haff to sit and hatch but just eat
and go swimming.
"If I were a goose, I'd rather
be a gander."
Battle Against Smog
Has Science Weapons
Los Angeles (U.P.) Scien
tists have been called into the
battle against smog and their
weapons include radar, an ex
haust scrubber and an electronic
smog predicter.
A microwave transmitter has
been placed atop Los Angeles
city hall. Its beam is being used
to probe smog particles in the
hopes of learning what smog is
made of.
Another attack on smog Is the
exhaust scrubber. This involves
research on chemicals that will
change the composition of auto
mobile exhaust gas so it will not
be harmful or create smog parti
cles. Other research involves appli
cation of an analog computer to
the prediction of smog concentra
tion and an investigation of
schemes for ventilating the Los
Angeles basin.
Couple Keeps 1,000
Dogs in Their Home
Enid. Okla . (U.R) More than
1,000 dogs in the house don't
bother Mr .and Mrs. Lynn Rork.
That's because they are all of the
manufactured variety dogs of
plastic, glass, pottery, cloth, rab
bit skin, soap, etc.
"The hobby began in 1936"
Rork recalled. "I bought the
first dog then an iron dog to
be used as a door stop."
This first dog is a prize one in
the couple's collection. It still oc
cupies its space beside the door
of the Rork's home.
"Most of the dogs have been
given to us," Mrs. Rork ex
plained. Their collection includes
dogs from nearly every state in
the union and representing some
20 countries.
The Rork's "doghouse" is a
large glass showcase in their liv
ing room. It has become so full
of the animals that some of them
have been moved to other rooms.

then get behind a steering wheel
to try to prove drunkometers
are all wet when it comes to a
man who can handle his liquor.
The 6-foot, 238-pound real
estate man' said he would line
his stomach with "just a couple
of cups of coffee" before staging
his bout with the bottle in the
court of Municipal Judge Fran
cis A. Sobieski today. The judge
agreed to let Rose try to prove
he was in complete control of
his faculties recently when
charged with drunk driving on
the basis of a .246 drunkometer
reading.
A drunkometer reading of
.150, which means there is .150
per cent alcohol in the blood
stream, is legally considered a
sure sign of intoxication.
Drunkometer tests are allowed
as evidence on a voluntary basis
Instinctive Gesture
Designs Get Favor
Los Angeles (U.R) A Cali
fornia woman who has complet
ed a nine-year study of human
gestures believes combat pilots
would stand a better chance of
survival if their equipment were
designed more in line with In
stinctive gesture patterns.
Dr. Maria Constance Magin
nis, a researcher at UCLA, cited
the ejection seat in jet aircraft
as an example.
"The pilot is trained to sit rig
idly .erect with his head held
tightly against the seat back and
not to move his head until he
clears the plane," Dr. Maginnis
pointed out. "Yet we know that
the instinctive motion In the face
of danger is to lower the head
defensively."
Trie researcher said that while
it is true humans can be trained
away from instinctive motion
patterns, there is always the'dan
ger that such training will go out
the window tinder great stress.

in 46 states. The National Safety
Council, basing its opinion on
research at Michigan State uni
versity, savs the tests are re
liable. Rose contends, however, that
while this may be true for "little
men" and one-handed drinkers,
it does not hold good for a two
fisted elbow-bender like himself.
He claims that in spite of the
drunkometer reading, the "seven
or eight drinks in the five
hours" before he was arrested
were not enough to do him in.
Drunkometer 'Often Wrong'
"My contention is that the
drunkometer can be wrong, in
fact is wrong in all but about 30
or 40 per cent of the cases," he
said.
"I'm a big man and I've been
drinking a considerable amount
regularly for a number of
years," said Rose. "A little man
who isn't used to drinking might
be in bad shape with a .246 read
ing, but I'm not."
Difficult Bottle
Caps Intentional
Buffalo, N.Y. (U.R) If you
find it more difficult to open
your aspirin containers, thank
and don't blame the manufactur
ers for this seeming inconveni
ence. It is part cf their program to
prevent accidental poisoning of
youngsters who may swallow
lethal amounts of the tablets if
the bottle is carelessly left with
in their reach.
Packaging experts of the Arn
er Co., pharmaceutical manu
facturer, said they not only are
making tighter closures, but
they are putting up the pain
reliever in smaller dosages and
in smaller packages.
Taken in excess, comparative
ly harmless aspirin can prove
dangerous, particularly to chil
dren six years and under. Over
doses may affect the child's cen
tral nervous system and show
other systemic effects.
If you buy bottled aspirins,
don't forget to screw the top
back on tightly and chances are
the small child will be unable
' to screw it off.

gration movements.
The Tennessee house put mi
nor final touches on Gov. Frank
Clement's "voluntary" school
segregation plan coupled with
strong local school board author
ity to assign or transfer pupils.
While the Tennessee Senate
passed the Clement program
Tuesday, a Georgia House com
mittee readied extra supports
for a standby "private school
plan" adopted last year.
Given Broad Powtrs
The Georgia legislative com
mittee approved also a bill giv
ing the governor broad powers
to deal with violence arising in
the segregation controversy sim
ilar to powers given the Florida
governor last year.
The Tennessee program al
ready passed in almost-final form
by the House provides:
1. Separate school systems for
White and Negro children whose
parents voluntarily choose seg
regated schools.
2. and 3. Strong powers for
local school boards in assigning
or transferring students from
one school to another.
4. Local school boards may op
erate schools jointly.
Transportation To Conform
5. Makes school transportation
laws conform to the new pro
gram. The Tennessee Senate is also
expected to give final okay to
a "Tennessee Manifesto" criti
cizing the U. S. Supreme Court's
decision outlawing school segre
gation. The House has already
passed the bill.
The Senate approved the school
program within 24 hours after
a federal judge had approved
plans of the Nashville school
board to integrate the first grade
next fall.

Navy Plane Crashes
During Snowstorm
Ypsilanti, Mich. (U.R) A
Navy DC4 transport which was
ordered to Michigan because of
bad weather conditions in Illin
ois, crashed and burned in a
blinding snowstorm Tuesday
night, killing one passenger and
injuring six crewmen.
The big ship was carrying the
body of a Michigan naval pilot
who was killed in an air acci
dent last week. The plane was-
groping its way through a wind
whipped snowstorm in an effort
to make a landing at Willow Run
Airport near here. It went down
about two miles short of the run
way and crashed into a gravel
pit.
Credit for Clue Bringing Arrest
Of Mad Bomber Starts Hassle
New York (U.R) A hassle de
veloped today over who should
get the credit for supplying the
final clue that trapped "the mad
bomber of Manhattan."
Was it the police? The Con
solidated Edison Company? Or
both?
Each claimed the credit at
separate press conferences, short
ly after George Metesky, a 54-year-old
Waterbury, Conn., tool
maker, was taken into custody
and admitted he was the long
sought "bomber," whose home
made pipe bombs had injured 15
persons here since 1940.
Officials of the giant utility,
against which Metesky, a former
employee had waged an unre
lenting war of revenge, stoutly
maintained that a 25-year-old
woman clerical worker came
across Metesky's file, noted simi
larities with the mad bomber
and that police were then noti
fied. Police Refute Claim
But Deputy Police Commis
sioner Walter Arm insisted that
a detective discovered the Me
tesky file at Consolidated Edison
which proved to be the key to
the solution" of the 16-year mys
tery that ended Tuesday with
Metesky's arrest on charges that
could send him to prison for
"several lifetimes."'
If Consolidated Edison's claim
is proved, the clerk, Miss Alice
Kelly, would be in line to re
ceive $26,000 in reward money
posted last month for informa
tion leading to the arrest of the
bomber whose activities set off
an epidemic of fake bomb scares
across the nation.
Consolidated Edison officials
said Miss Kelly, on her own in
itiative, discovered the bomb
er's file, containing a series of
letters in which Metesky sought
to satisfy his claim for a disabil
ity incurred when he was gassed
in 1931 while employed as a
generator wiper at one of the

utility's New York plants.
"We haven't got the full de
tails yet. but we say it's, not so,"
Arm said.
"The physical act of picking it
out was done at the request of
the police department."
Police Commissioner Stephen
Kennedy, who has been author
ized to. desginate any reward
recipient, said it would conduct
a thorough investigation of th
situation.
There was a strong possibility,
however, that the dispute would
turn out to be academic, since,
if Metesky is adjudged insane
and committed to a mental hos
pital no reward money could be
offered.
Metesky, the smiling, affable
man who "nobody ever knew,"
today began undergoing psychia
tric tests at Bellcvue hospital
which ultimately will decide
whether he will have to stand
trial for his exploits or be com
mitted to a mental hospital.
Such a commitment, legal au
thorities pointed out, would not
technically constitute conviction,
and thus would preclude any rewards.
