Without the reserve clause
Herlong said, a minor league

BALTIMORE'S BONUS BOY Frank Zupo, 17, signed to
a $50,000 bonus contract by the Baltimore Orioles, hefts
an 120-pound drum of lubricant as he helps his father,
Frank Sr., with deliveries in San Francisco. The Orioles
outbid 12 other major league clubs and several Pacific
Coast League teams to sign the prep start catcher. Zupo,
just graduated from Sacred Heart High School in San
Francisco, is built along the lines of Yogi Berra, 5-feet
9V2-inches tall and weighing 190 pounds. He throws right
and bats left.
Crews Win Gruelling Baffle
To Bring TV To Bozeman
Bozeman, Mont. W A party
of bearded construction workers
and electronic experts has been
proclaimed victorious in the gru
eling wintertime "Battle of the
Anceney Peaks."
The men began their fight late
last fall when, after extensive
aerial surverys, the Bozeman
Community Television system
selected a spot on the 9,500-foot-high
peaks for erection of a
microwave relay station.
The relay was designed to
bring "live" television programs
from an Idaho Falls station, KID
TV, to the Bozeman system.
Idaho Falls, in turn, has its own
electronic link with the trans
continental network through
Salt Lake City TV stations.
Road 40 Miles Long
The Anceney Peaks are only
20 miles east of the Continental
Divide. The repeater station was
located 180 miles northeast of
Idaho Falls and 31 airline miles
southwest of Bozeman.
However, the road from Boze
man to the peaks traverses more
than 40 miles, the last 12 over a
stock trail from a ranch called
Cow Camp" just off the Gallatin
Gateway highway to Yellow
stone Park.
The crew members originally
went to the station site by truck,
but snows soon drifted over the
trail blocking the road so the
truck could not get out after
bringing in initial supplies
A small cinder-block house
was constructed during weather
so bad that the blocks had to be
heated and then passed to a ma
son who, his visibility impaired
bv drifting snow, put them in
place "by feel."
The predominant wind is so
strong that the scrub pine on the
crest of the Deaks have no
branches on their southwest side
Construction of the facility
kept up during the winter by
men who made their way to the
site on special "snow-cat," ma
chines equipped with wide treads
to travel over the snow which
reaches a depth of 35 feet in the
area.
The crews that remained in the
new building had to sleep in
hammocks suspended over the
jammed-in microwave gear, gen
erators and heaters. Sometimes
they slept outside in improvised
tents.
Tower Dropped
A 60-foot tower was dropped
on the site, in 20-foot sections, by
light plane. The aircraft also
brought food and such instru
ments as a delicate field strength
meter that was encased in a huge
padded box to ease its fall into
the snow drifts.
During the middle of the win
ter, the temperature on Anceney
Peaks dropped to 36 degrees be
low zero, while winds of 60 to
100 miles an hour were not un
common. By spring, the battle was fi
nally won. the new microwave
link formally dedicated and the
crews left the mountain. As they
came down, the ranchers at
"Cow Camp" admitted they were
wrong when thev insisted the
job couldn't be done during a
Montana winter.
New Apple Fills Gap
By Early Development
Geneva, N.Y. API A fall ap
ple that ripens about two weeks
ahead of the popular Mcintosh,
filling the gap between that va
riety and Early Mcintosh, has
been introduced by the New
York State experiment station
here.
The new apple has been
named "Barry" in honor of Pat
rick Barry and his son, William,
of the once-famous Elwanger
and Barry Nursery at Rochester,
N.Y. It was developed from a
c-oss made in 1923 between Mc
intosh and Cox Orange, an old
European variety of very high
quality but little known in the
United States.
The Barry is rated high as a
desert apple. It is especially rec
ommended as a home garden variety.
Catskinner Killed in
Jump From Tractor
Springfield. Ore. IF John
K. Van Orden, 45, Blue River, a
catskinner for the Rosboro Lum
ber Co., here, died of head and
body injuries Tuesday afternoon
en route to a Eugene Hospital
after he apparently jumped from
a runaway tractor that rolled
down a steep hill about 40 miles
east of here.
Van Orden is survived by a
wife and two sons.
Greek Immigrant
Praises New Home
Fort Carson, Colo. Wl A
Greek immigrant recently draft
ed into the U. S. Army has
nothing but praise for his adopt
ed country.
The immigrant, George Kara-
volos. stationed at Fort Carson.
already had chalked up two
years of service in the Merchant
Marine when he was drafted. He
has been in this country since
1952.
While in the Merchant Marine
Karavolos had an opportunity to
visit his sweetheart In Greece.
He married her and brought her
back to Decatur, 111.
As a small boy in Greece,
Karavolos, now the father of
two children, fled from the Nazis
in a rowboat with his parents.
After the war he finished high
school in his homeland before
immigrating to America.
"I'd never realized that there
could be a country in the world
as fine as the United States,"
Karavolos said at Camp Carson.
"We had always heard so much
about it in Greece, but it is even
much more wonderful than I'd
thought it could be."
New Plane Traffic
Control Aid Devised
Rochester, N.Y. TP Strom-berg-Carlson,
a division of Gen
eral Dynamics Corp., has de
veloped a new system for auto
matic transmission of flight in
formation from aircraft to
ground control centers. The sys
tem is expected to become an
important aid in air traffic con
tiol. Called LABIL (light aircraft
binary information link), the
system enables a pilot to trans
mit automatically 13 separate
categories of information to a
control tower with the flip of a
switch.
The information entered into
the system by the pilot through
adjustment of control selection
knobs, includes such data as
identification, departure point,
destination, estimated time of ar
rival, present position, altitude,
airspeed, time of report, head
ing, flight time remaining and
other data.
The data filters through an
error detector and is then passed
to a teletypewriter print-out de
vice. Information failing the er
ror check appears as blank spac
es in the printed text and is iden
tifiable. The mobile LABIL unit is
only 13 inches high, 10 inches
wide and 6 inches deep. It
weighs 25 pounds.
500 Motives Exist To
Influence Consumers
Los Angeles IIP) A Univer
sity of California professor of
marketing says that although at
least 600 motives exist, usually
only from five to 20 different
motives influence an individ
ual's decision to buy a specific
product at a given time.
Dr. C. Joseph Clawson is en
gaged in putting together the
first large inventory of motives
which influence consumers to
buy. His study consists of moti
vational research conducted by
300 business firms across the
nation.
He found that reasons some
times are extremely subtle. For
example, manufacturers of in
stant coffee found that sales in
creased when they began to ad
vertise elaborate ways of mak
ing instant coffee because this
seemed to allay fears of women
that they would be considered
poor hostesses, neglectful of
their families, or slovenly in
their habits.

Atomic Age Lubricant Sought by Scientists
Richmond, Calil. HP) Oil in
dustry scientists are working
here to perfect a lubricant to
serve the atomic age. The big
problem is to keep oils from
turning into a crusty hard mass
when exposed to radiation.
Scientists at California Re
search Corp. (subsidiary of
Standard Oil Co. of California)
carried out the experiment!, that
led to development of lubricants
used on the atomic submarine
U.S.S. Nautilus.
Most of the work Cal Research
does at its laboratories here for
the Defense Department is class
ified. But A. H. Batchelder, vice
of the Richmond laboratory, ad
president and general manager
mitted that progress in develop
ment of radiation-resistant lu
bricants has been "spectacular."
Scientists experiment with
scores of different lubricants
and then subject them to radio
active cobalt bombardments to
see how they stand up. Batch
elder said oil research has kept
pace with developments in peace
time atomic energy.

Alcoholic Beverage
Taxes $542 Million
Chicago (1?) Taxes on alco
holic beverages put S542 million
in state government coffers in
fiscal 1956, according to the
Federation of Tax Administrators.
The federation said almost 65
per cent of the amount came
from taxes on distilled spirits.
The federation said 29 states
impose a tax on distilled spirits,
and 16 others obtain revenue
from liquor consumption
through state-operated liquor
stores.
Liquor is sold through county
operated stores in North Caro
lina. In Mississippi and Okla
homa, no sale of liquor is per
mitted. For the 29 states where dis
tilled liquors are taxed, the aver
age tax rate per gallon is SI. 65.
federation records showed. Eight
states levy taxes above S2.00,
while three tax at a rate of less
than $1.00.
