On The Side By E. V. Durling iDttributed by Kinq Fiaturu Svdirf. Inc.) Now Dr. Jean Bolvin plastic , Sidelights surseon of Paris, has written a Is Smith an Irish name? How book on facial rejuvenation 'about Jones? In a shop titled "Cosmetic Surgery." There are, according to Dr. Bolv in, five types of rejuvenating facial operations. They are 1. Nose. 2 Lines under eyes. 3. Lines on face. 4. Ears- 5. Neck. Most of the operations are for reshaping the nose. This is a great beautifier. The operation for removal of lines under the eyes is said to be a remark able facial rejuvenator. Makes a woman 10 or 15 years young er. According to Dr. Bolvin the time for a woman to give atten tion to facial rejuvenation by surgery is when she is in her early 40s. Women past that age, says he, should not expect too much from facial operations. Young Liquor It is illegal in Great Britain to sell Scotch whisky that is under three years old. This legis lation no longer applies to Scotch whisky that is exported. So some Scotch whicky is being exported when it is only four months old. It is said this youth ful liquor is mostly sent to Cen tral America where the whisky drinkers are not so particular. This reminds me that some of the Scotch I have sampled re cently seemed young in years. I thought I imagined it. Per haps not. Could be some of that infant Scotch is reaching this country. Taxis Again Whether one or five passeng ers ride in a New York taxicab the fare is the same! The ques tion arises is a single passenger paying the price for five pas sengers or, when five ride, are they paying the price for only one passenger? I hope I am not confusing you.' Anyway, in New York City on 57 per cent of taxicab trips only one passenger is carried. On 33 per cent, two passengers are aboard. Six per cent, three passengers. Four per cent, more than three pas sengers. Pl.ai. Not What is your phobia? I suf fer from demophobia. That is, I don't like crowds. I got that way from being pushed around in the New York subway when I was a kid. Do you know the origin of "phobia?" It is derived from Phobia, go of fear. O'Connell Street, Dublin, can be purchased the crests of 450 different Irish clans. These in clude those of the Smith clan and the. Jones clan. . .An in teresting example of parental objection that failed to click was that Whistler's mother did not want him to be a painter. Truly a terrific setback to the claim that mother knows best. Horses and Women I saw a young woman with a "two tone" hairdo. She had a streak of blonde hair in front and brown hair in the rear. The value of this style from trsi angle of adding to a female's appearance escapes me. Seems to make her look somewhat freakish. Voters In what state can be found the most conscientious voters? That is from the angle of reg ularly going to the polls. The answer is Idaho. Over 77 per cent of the eligible voters in Idaho went to the polls in the Presidential election of 1 9 5 6. Connecticut was second in this respect. Utah, third, Massach usetts, fourth, New Hampshire, fifth and Rhode Island sixth. New York was 26th. California, 29th. Texas was 42nd. Missis sippi was 48th and last. Asides An unusual j number of Chic ago women continue to refer to their "wonderful husbands." It could be that Chicago husbands are no more wonderful than those of other cities but their wives are more appreciative. . . The best way to wager on har ness horse races is by post posi tion. This is especially true at the New York City tracks at Yonkers and Roosevelt Raceway and at Santa Anita in Calif ornia. Of course, you must have a good method of progression. LAY THAT SPACEGUN DOWN Chicaga U.R Western Union has urged children to lay down their atom blasters at least for the Easter season. The com pany's "Bunnygram" warns ju venile spacemen to "put away their spaceguns" lest they scare off "bunny friends who want to bring them Easter presents." Portland 'Ghelio' HousingUnchanged PortlandCU.R) There is little or no improvement in the pat tern of "ghetto" housing for Ne groes in Portland in the past 12 years, according to a report by the Portland City Club. The report blamed a combi nation of enforced segregation in housing and poor economic opportunities for the creation of Negro "slum ghettos" in the city. The report was written by a committee which has been mak ing a study for the last two years. It is a followup of one made in 1945. The committee reported that 50 per cent of the Negroes in the city live in one district where hardly any improvements have been made during the last 12 years. With the choice of the Broadway-Steel bridge site for the E-R center, the Negroes face a tremendous housing problem unless the prevailing attitudes in integrated housing takes a turn for the better, it said. The committee reported that through fair labor employment laws there have been some im provements in the economic field but there still exists unions and employers who refuse to em ploy Negroes. Although there is no segregation in schools, the committee stated that the exist ence of ghettos implied segrega tion in education in fact if not in form. Friday.

The full-time parole board bill was re-referred to committee by the House for discussion as to whether it also should provide for possible chan ges in parole and probation pro cedure. Rep. Robert Duncan, Medford Democrat, said he was a firm be liever in a full time, board called for by Gov. Robert D. Holmes. But he said the Committee on State and Federal Affairs might consider limiting the bill to cre ating the board only, so the House would have a "clear is sue" to vote on. Salem (U.R) The Joint Ways and Means Committee of the Legislature approved a $86,370 appropriation for the Oregon Historical Society. An original appropriation of $99,820 was sent back to the committee fronv the House be cause it was too great an in crease over the previous budget. Portland-Vancouver Bridge Work Halted Portland U.R) A jurisdic tional dispute between the pile drivers union and the iron work ers union has halted work on some phases of the $6, 681,840 Interstate bridge be tween Portland and Vancouver, Wash. ' Concrete piers for the new span have been completed and structural steel is ready to be put in place but members of the two unions disagreed over which should drive the piling for falsework for the steel. Thirty pile drivers halted work and stationed pickets around the bridge project, but George McCoy, project man ager, said the steel workers re mained on the job. I nep. tioDeri uuncan, a iviea- ford Democrat, said he would still oppose the appropriation bill because of his opposition to increases in non-essential spend ing in a time of financial short ages. Salem (U.R) The Oregon Sen ate unanimously approved House bill 297, authorizing the state of Oregon to cooperate with Washington in a preliminary survey of the feasibility of build ing a bridge across the Colum bia between Astoria and Megler.

Hemeter said the jail had been unoccupied since 1945, besides if anyone needs jailing, "We can put him in the county jail at Collins just 10 m:les away."
