With the greatest facilities for intellectual com munication that we have ever had, we croon jingles over knick knacks or identify ourselves with Mickey Mouse." Maturity indeed demands a harmonious blend of independ ence and cooperation, decreas ingly possible in our complicat ed and mechanized civilization. We must think for ourselves but also get along as citizens, assum ing responsibilities in our com munity. A mature individual is able to give up muh of the mag ical expectations of cnildhood to face reality fully. He is better able to control emotions and at the same time he is freerer of guilt, fear, and shame, which paralyzes the average man's in initiative. Our culture, say many think ers, is over-masculine in its val ues. Women have to - compete feminity is either belittled or ignored. Man In today's civiliz ation are frequently bewildered by and at odds with their instinc tual drives; the conflict within themselves results in tension and emotional difficulty. Modern life often stunts emotion growth and prevents genuine maturity. "The maturity of a person can be best measured by his capa city to love," says Dr. Paul Po penoe, director of the American Institute of Family Relations in Los Angeles. "This shows itself not only in marriage but in the wider sphere of a man's general endeavor. The successful man is the mature man mature in his inner being. This inner ma turity is reflected in his rela tionships with others, in his pro fession, and in his marriage." long Bed, Short Tub Set for Prince Phillip Paris (U.R) Officials pre paring for the British royal visit here seem to think Prince Phil lip is longer when sleeping than when bathing.

U.R The Midg ets of America drew up pint sized resolutions today aimed at making it a better world for little people. The 27 delegates planned to take up such vital matters as the height of phones in public booths, how to squeeze onto a rush hour bus and the facilities in rest rooms. Another matter of grave con cern was the problem of clothes. Most midgets have to have all their clothes tailored and their shoes hand made. They said "big people" should be aware of their plight. There are about' 160 midgets in the United States. Until now, they have had no organization. However, they met at the River-side Hotel Wednesday and de cided to form the Midgets of America and to set up perma nent headquarters here. The ho- tel gave them free rooms and meals at half price.

Crow, University of Wisconsin genetics department, says there is no such thing as a "safe" amount of radiation. "Medical and dental x-ray and fluoroscopic examinations are necessary to scientific medicine, but, in my opinion," such things as x-ray shoe-fitting machines are likely to do more harm than good," Crow said. Most mutations resulting from radiations which reach the re productive cells and are passed on to succeeding generations do not have conspicuous results, the genecist said. "They simply add to our ex isting health burdens by making persons more prone to disease, or by shortening life, or causing impairment of body functions in many ways."

Operation 'Spill' May Spread Cancer Chicago (U.R) Cancer may occur in many patients because deadly cell "crumbs" spill over during an operation and seed the system with lethal cancer colon ies. This is the conclusion of a growing number of scientists, ac cording to the American Cancer society. , The Society's Illinois division reported that scientists at. the University of Illinois College of Medicine have begun a program to combat such risks. A group working with Dr. Warren H. Cole, immediate past president of the American Col lege of Surgeons, has shown ex perimentally that prophylactics could overtake and destroy cells escaping from a cancer. The experimenters have adopt ed surgical technique and drugs designed to protect patients from the lethal spillage of can cer cells during an operation. Measures now considered mand atory in operations for cancer of the breast, colon, rectum and stomach include: Tying off early all blood ves sels serving the operative area and injecting a drug into the abdominal cavity or veins at the end of the operation. Bathing the area with a so lution capable of killing any can cer cells that might have spilled over. Injecting drugs for three days after surgery into veins to chase down and destroy any cancer cells that might have ecaped into the bloodstream.'
