Bing Crosby Blasts Radio and TV Music Washington ilfi Crooner Bing Crosby struck a harsh note Sunday night in commenting on popular music played on ladio and television. U -ibclled it just "so much trash." Crosby told i .v. Senate that broadcast music is not having a good effect on the morals, idea's and tastes of the American public. that on the night before Hells Canyon came to a vote, Morse and six other westerner Hells Canyon sponsors Magnuson of Washington, Murray and Mans field of Montana. O'Mahoney of Wyoming, Anderson of New Mexico and Bible of Nevada had teamed up with southerners on the big fisnt over what to do with the House-passed civil rights bill. Then next day when the Hells Canyon bill came up. the bulk of the southerners voted lor tlie bill in contrast to last year when eight of them helped Republicans defeat Hells Canyon. Similar Complaints The charge that a deal was made is reminiscent of similar lands support. Managed Through Senate Cordon subsequently became committee chairman and con ducted exhaustive hearings and managed the tidelands bill through the Senate during Eise nhower's first term. Long, as long as he was on the committee, voted with Republicans against the Hells Canyon bill and help ed bottle it up .until he transfer- verdict. eral gas controls, as does the gas industry, and the senators from gas slates. Many senators are free to charge that others have entered into deals which they find rep rehensible, but none, to the knowledge cf this reporter, has ever confessed making a deal himself. And it is, in the nature of the case, one of the impossi bilities for Washington corres pondents to nail down conclus ively. The charge is always made by the loser of any bitter fight to cxpluin why his side lost. The winner always attributes the ma jority vote on his side to the noblest of motives. It is for the voters, measuring the men in volved, the issues at slake, and the final results' to render the On The Side (Distributed by King By E. V. Dui ling Feature; Syndicate.

No Parking The "No Parking'' signs in Manhattan are being widely and steadily ignored, 't is not uncommon to see an automobile parked in front of a fire plug. What New York City needs is a very active "tow away" squad to take care of the parking vio lators. The London, police de partment has a squad of 80 "tow away'' cars Parking violators there return to find their auto mobiles gone. And they have a very difficult time getting them back. S andarirs nee tyti'httie oils help conquer u itkerinj jet heat and rlralo'pheric coid. TEN" MILES UP WHERE THE JETS FLY there's a world few jr.m know. Temperatures from 70 to 100 below zero make ordinary hibricants thick and sluggish on controls that must respond in stantly. But within jet engines, moving parts must be protected against withering heat up to 600 Fahrenheit. Standard has "built"' synthetic oils that stand up under both ex tremes. In less than five years these oils will be helping jet airliners whisk you safely to your destination, farther, faster, and more comfortably than ev er before. We've been working toward that day since 1942 when Standard supplied the fuel used in the first jet flight in the United States. Air travel will nearly double by 1965 Jet oirlinerj will carry twiceas many passengers at twice the speed of conventional planes. Standard is getting ready now for 1965 when U.S. civilian and military demand for jet fuel will surpass aviation gas by more than 300,000 barrels a day. ; Asking Queries from clients. Q. Who originated the phrase the "Iron Curtain "? A. Winston Churchill in a speech at Westminster Col lege. Fulton, Mo. on March 5, 1 946. Q. Who said, "All the things I like are illegal, im moral or fattening"? I say it was Alexander Woolcott. My wife says it was Dorothy Parker. Who is right? A. You're both wrong. It was Fannie Hurst. Q. Has any major league ballplayer ever been killed by being hit by a pitched ball? Was the pitcher in the case trying to "dust off the man fatally hit? That is. trying to drive him . away from the plate? A. A New York Yankee player named Chapman died after being hit by a pitched ball. It was con sidered strictly accidental. Blondes Clark Gable has a platinum blonde for his leading lady in his latest picture. This, it is claimed, will inspire a revival of the popularity of the platinum blonde shade. That is improb able according to experts on feminine appearance. They say that smart women feel platinum blonde bait makes a woman conspicuous rather than attrac tive. Working Houri What were the best working hours you ever had? For a brief Roundabout Strolling around lower Broad way. I saw a shop specializing in old phonograph records. This shop boasts that it has lUO.OOU different recordings dating from 1900 to the present. Also saw a shop bearing sign"Men's Hats Made to Order." I'll bet a made-to-order hat lasts a long time. In another store I saw a win dow display of over 50 different brands of safety razor blades. One brand was priced at SI for 100 blades with each blade guaranteed good for four or five shaves.

V'iv& MARKET & DOODY'S RICHFIELD i..JJ THE CRATERIAN SERVICE STATION BEAUTY SALON JOHNSON'S MODEL BAKERY & BAKERY LUNCH Solemn Ceremony Marks Graduation period I worked as a hotel room clerk. I worked a "long day" and a "short day". The long day was from six a.m. to noon. From six p.m. until midnight. The short day was from noon to six pin. What I liked about these hours was that one day you had the afternoon off and could go to the ball park or races. On the "short'' day you could sleep late. Then afler working in the afternoon you had the night off. This variety added plenty to the spice of life. Especially for a young fellow. First Baby In 1930, a British bride, then 22, made the following state ment: "I want complete freedom when I am young. I am not go ing to have a baby until I am 49 years old." There are several living witnesses who heard this strange remark. Recently this woman, now 49, gave birth to her first4 baby just as she planned. She is said to be plan ning to have another baby when she is 50. Mosquitoes Where in this country are found the most aggressive mos quitoes? Some people say it is in Texas. Others claim it is New Jersey. However, some experts on the subject are now main taining that the most aggressive, dangerous and irritating mos quitoes are found in New York City in the Boroughs of the Bronx, Brooklyn, Richmond and Queens. Manhattan is excepted. There are no mosquito breeding swamps in that borough. These New York City mosquitoes are being called "flying tigers." Their bite causes a very large swelling. At times as large as a marble. Painted Post. N. Y. IT" Fifty-eight heavy-hearted sen iors accepted their diplomas from Painted Post High School Mon day night mindful that there j should have been four more i among their number. j The four were not forgotten. Their names were called. Roland Leinhos, Jack Van Deventer, j Stanley Bartlett, Richard Gum- berts. Only Gumberts will get his diploma. The other three are dead, victims of an automobile accident which claimed six lives and hospitalized Gumberts. Classmates of the accident vic tims did their best to carry on as "the boys would have wanted it." But it was rough for these teenagers still feeling the shock of the worst tragedy to strike this community of 3,000 in 13 years. The graduates observed a mo ment of silent prayer, and it was undoubtedly the most profound moment of the night. After the graduation, congrat ulatory handshakes and hugs were stiff and awkward. Their smiles were forced. The Leinhos youth, who was the class salutatorian, had his speech prepared prior to dying two days before he was to have delivered it. It was decided that his address should not be read by anyone else. 2 xclu4foe - WITH THE OIL FURNACE SPYRA FLOW HEAT EXCHANGER TURN BACK FLAME tee the Ct furnace at WESTERN OIL & BURNER CO. ot Mcdford.
