Vacation Lending i Of Books in Effect At Public Library O Vacation borrowing is now hi ffect at the Medford Public Library according to Librarian Helen Webster. This extended loan policy, she gfltd, permits the borrowing of 10 adult novels or non-fiction books for the entire vacation period instead of the regular two week period. Users of the child ren s department may take five books on a vacation loan. How ever in fairness to all its readers the library, resetves very recent or popular book from this spec ial privilege. To keep the records straight, borrowers ar requested to in dioe whenever boots are to be (barged as vacation loan instead of the regular two weeks period. Croupe of borrowers going to summer camp mj take along a collection of hrnki as a camp library upon application of their leader. Such collections should be requester! at least one week in advance of the time they are needed in order that the staff may have tim to make the best selection and to prepare the books. Favorite types of books for summer borrowing are classics, popular novels, travel books and books about summer sports. Vacationers who want to catch up on their reading during the summer months also make use of the long-term vacation privil ege to read bocks on hobbies and self-improvement and to brush up on technical subjects.

In the hey day of the screen, movie stars' homes were magnificent and of ten monstrous to behold. To day the new houses such as Ronald Rea gan's, are simpler. Back in the '20s a home built by a celebrity was a sight for the Mix' place had a neon sign on the roof that spelled out his name; Pola Ne gri's sported gold doorknobs and a marble bathtub the size of a swimming pool. But life in Hollywood has toned down, and so have the houses, except for Liberace's piano-shaped swimming pool. Most of the new young "realis tic" actors shun possessions and live in apartment. The only stars rich enough to build new big houses are those who've made a killing in TV Dinah Shore, Lucille Ball, Ronald Rea gan. The Reagan's $125,000 home is built in the hills of suburban Pacific Palisades overlooking the ocean, and is a modern com bination of glass, flagstone and split-leaf philodendron. The home is an electronic mar vel, as Reagan is the host of 'The General Electric Theater" iseries on CBS-TV. In fact, it's equipped with lighting that would be the envy of any Broad- ' way stage manager. By pressing levers inside the j front door-Reagan can turn on a light anywhere in the house. By a flip of a dial he can dim any light, or make it brighter. The lights over the dining room table are pink and yellow. Wife Nancy can "mix" them in any color or dim-bright combi nation she wants, depending on what her - dinner guests are wearing. There's a fuel-less electric heating unit, a cordless electric clock, three TV sets, five hi-fi j speakers and a swimming pool. uii me living room is an "atrium," or indoor patio- with no ceiling so guests can dance under the siars. Done In 'Off-White' The Reagans also now own a cooled wine closet (these Calif ornia homes don't have cool basements for such things). The house is quietly done in off white and yellow and black doors and Oriental-ish furniture. "In the old days of Hollywood, the houses were stake settings," said the actor. "There were no taxes and a star could indulge every whim. Some of those houses had fully-equipped thea ters and tunnels. "A star could be poor one day and handed a pot full of dough the next. He had little Atomic Scientists Take Rest From Shots Las Vegas, Nev. IW Atomic Energy Commission scientists took a rest today from the tick lish operation of detonating nu clear devices after completing the third test in an extensive spring-supper series. The next shot was tentatively scheduled for Tuesday morning. The third device in the series, possibly a "trigger" for an H bomb, was set off Wednesday morning from a platform sus pended from a balloon raised 500 feet above the Yucca Flat test site, 75 miles northwest of here. Observers reported the de vice was one of the smallest ever set off in the United States. Its blast, estimated to have been equal to 1,000 tons of TNT, sent up a fireball which lasted less than a minute. The flash was barely visible here. TEARS ON THE BUS San Jose, Calif. itPi A bus load of 91 children went to school crying Wednesday. A 13-year-old boy accidentally fired a tear gas pencil in the bus, the sheriff's office said. They did not explain why the boy was carrying a tear gas pencil. Japanese Farmer Wounded by Shell Gotemba, Japan IP A Japa nese farmer was seriously in jured Wednesday after noon when hit by a fragment of a bazooka shell on a U.S. firing range on the slopes of Mt. Fuji, it was disclosed today. Hiroshi Katsumata, 22, of Go temba suffered serious injuries in both legs. He told police he entered the firing range to col lect empty shells because he thought firing had ended for the day. Japanese scavengers have been warned to keep away from U.S. firing ranges but they have disregarded the warnings in an effort to make a living. The "off limits" regulations have not been enforced by Jap anese police even after the ex plosion of the Girard case, in volving the fatal shooting by an American soldier of a Japanese woman collecting empty shells on the Camp Weir firing range last January.

Cherry-Flavored Version of Manhattan Wins $700 and Acclaim for Bartender Chicago iTP Bartender Bob Brooks of Springfield, 111., whip ped up a concoction that won him the acclaim of connoisseurs and, perhaps more important, $700 in government bonds. Brooks' cherry-flavored ver sion of the manhattan was ad judged ' best of show" at the regional finals of a national drink mixing contest. His entry, fancifully labeled "Golden Times" by the distillery that sponsored the affair, first won the "before dinner" compe tition, for which Brooks was awarded a $200 bond. Brooks then went on to win the whole shebang, for which he received a $500 bond and was kissed by a couple of models, with the plaudits of fellow mix ologists, distillery officials and assorted whisky drinkers ring ing in his ears. Judges at this Bacchanalian festival were recruited from the press, radio and TV industries, and included several eminent free-loaders. Father of Three Brooks, a tall- likable father of three young children, is a "career bartender" at a place called The Mill, where Illinois politicians assemble to toss aside care. Politicians are just like other people. Brooks said. Some are good, some bad. He always fig ured Orville Hodge was one of the good guys. Until Hodge was Lcaught stealing a couple of mil lion dollars and was sent away. Which would seem to prove that bartenders, supposedly dis cerning judges of human char acter, are not infallible. But then Orville Hodge fooled a lot of people. Brooks' prize-winning recipe calls for IVi ounces of whisky the sponsor's product, naturaly, 34 ounce of wild cherry wisniak and 3,i ounce of cherry marmier. "Stir over cracked ice and pour into cocktail glass," Brooks said. "Add maraschino cherry and orange twist." Bartender John Lapetine. of Independence, Mo., won first place in the "after dinner" cate gory, and Marty Lindstrom of Chicago took the "cooler" com petition with a mixture of bene dictine, brandy and bourbon. There were some dissenters among the judges who regarded the whole thing as heresy, hold ing that good bourbon should be mixed with nothing but water. Or vice versa. As singer Burl Ives used to say, there's nothing wrong with Chicago water when properly mixed. My grandpappy would have taken a dim view of the contest. A bourbon drinker from way back, he mixed it with nothing. The water down his way wasn't very good. REALLY NEARSIGHTED Fachuca, Mexico HP Near sighted Raul Mariel Cruz, 18. was in a hospital today with a broken arm and broken collar bone suffered when he dived into an empty swimming pool.
