The compound is already being used in con junction with analgesics or pain - reliev ers, and the doctor thinks it can be used Dr Alvarez in quiet ing psychotic patients. The drug can produce a long-lasting sleep with in three minutes of its adminis tration. It is--very good in that it does not degress the patient's breathing, and it does nofpro duce too deep a sleep. It does 0iot seem to affect the heart, and it does not produce either nausea or vomiting. It proved very help ful in 200 cases of patients who were acutely agitated or were in delirium tremens (seeing snakes). The drug is not, tech nically speaking, a tranquilizer.

Five-Point Eik Killed By Medford Huntsman Dick McElhose Sr., Old Stage rd., recently bagged a five-point, 850-pound elk near LaGrande. He was hunting with his son Dick Jr., and brought the ani mal down from 75 yards with one shot to the heart with a 30.06 rifle. It was the third elk he has killed. Is That So? By EUGENE BURNS Ranger-Naturalist In some way, every animal that lives is competing with man for the food he gets from plants. Most animals are reasonable in their demands but in every country there are some vora cious "pests" maHig extraordi nary demands. The giant African snail, for example, has been introduced to some Pacific islands and is now eating prodigious amounts of food. One alone will eat a head of lettuce at a sitting. Similarly, five rabbits will devour more food than a sheep and in Aus tralia alone, the rabbits' food would support 40,000,000 sheep! But of all animal pests, sure ly none makes more serious in roads on our food supplies than the rat, which lives in every country on the face of the earth and in most outnumbers the hu man population. In some countries, rabbits have become an even more trou blesome pest than the rat. Like the rat, rabbits breed rapidly and can maintain a large popu lation in spite of everything man may do to destroy them. In sbme of the lush Pacific islands rabbits were introduced by well meaning ship captains thinking they would offer meat to ship wrecked sailors. Instead, on some of these islands I have seen where the rabbits stripped the land of every bit of vegetation; they devoured even the rare, flightless nestlings; and the islands have become barren rockpiles. A hundred years ago, rabbits were released on an estate in Australia to provide shooting. Within six years, the owner shot 20,000 in a year . . and as many more were left alive. Without natural enemies, they spread throughout Australia until they numbered in the hundreds of millions. Smaller Snail for Control In India, Indonesia, Japan and many Pacific, islands, the giant African snail has been in troduced. Each of these slithery foot-long snails produces 300 eggs at a time, every two or three months. To control this giant snail, scientists have found a smaller one which crawls into the six inch high shell and eats the giant alive. Because scientists do not yet know what they will do once they have cleaned up on the giant snails, they are confin ing their tests to small, isolated islands but the experiment seems to promise relief from this scourge. To combat the Australian rab bits just about everything has been tried hawks, weasels, snakes, strychnine poison, rab bit-proof fencing, and most re cently seven years ago a vi rus disease, myxomatosis. The introduced disease spread rap ily and within three years, as much as 99 per cent of the rab bit population was wiped out in some areas. As with human diseases how ever the rabbits who recovered are now immune and in due course it seems probable that the Australian rabbit will learn to live with myxomatosis. Chemicals for Rais In the rat battle, man has re cently perfected some effective chemicals one, an antibiotic "actidione" is a powerful repel lent. Though the animal will be starving it will not chew its way through cardboard impregnated with actidione to get at the food. And it would rather die of thirst than to drink water containing even a trace of the rug. Newest in the battle against insect pests are intenal insecti cides. Given DDT to eat with their normal food, rabbits will "poison" insects which feed upon them. Similarly cows have been made lethal to mosquitoes, lice and the dread warble-fly larvae. But caution must prevail and does. Obviously this inter nal insecticide needs carefid checking. Although it must be powerful enough to kill the in sects which feed upon a host, such as a cow, it must not har the animal itself or remain in the animal's body to contami nate its meat or milk.

Khrushchev Pedestal Shaky, Experts on Soviet Affairs Say London (IP) Nikita S Khrushchev is headed toward the infamous peak of absolute dictatorship but his trail will be a rocky one, western experts on Soviet affairs said today. They said the timing of the Soviet Communist Party chief's purge of Marshal Georgi Zhukov indicated Khrushchev himself was facing imminent danger of being overthrown. Otherwise, they said, Khrush chev would not have timed it to County 4-HProgram Said Big Business By Extension Agent "It's big business," stated Glenn Klein, 4-H Club agent, as he reported on the achievements the Jackson County 4-H club program recognized on Nation al 4-H Club Achievement day recently. Jackson county's 750 4-Hers have invested more than $175, 000 in over a thousand projects carried during the 1957 4-H club year. Of this amount, the 4-Hers returned a profit, or made a sav ings, of approximately $35,750, Klein reported. The major income providing projects were livestock, where 4-Hers have raised 264 dairy animals, 298 beef, 505 sheep, 220 swine, and approximately 200 miscellaneous animals, which have returned them over $30, 000 in profit, he said. Learning arts of a seamstress has paid off in savings of $1680 on the more than 900 garments that 4-H girls made in their clothing projects. The total amount saved in 4-H projects . does not include the foods projects, where 4-Hers prepared 7,245 tasty dishes and more than 1,500 complete meals as they learned culinary arts and helped provide balanced meals for- their families. In adidtion to major project, 4-Hers have canned and frozen more than 600 quarts of fruit and vegetables and made nu merous articles for child care, knitting and home living proj ects. More than 1650 geese and chickens were raised as 4-H projects, 31 acres of grain and pasture crops, and more than 20 articles were made in electrical and woodworking projects. In addition, they have carried projects in tractor maintenance, forest, fish, and wildlife conser vation, and safe use of firearms, to complete a well-founded pro gram of family centered 4-H projects. Lloyd Site Given Approval for Hotel Portland (IP) Ernest Hen derson, president of Sheraton hotels, expressed approval of the Lloyd center site oj his com pany's proposed hotel here Sun day and said he hoped "there will be some actual ground breaking there this year."

Studcbct -Pofl CorpnH. , Monday, November A, 1IS7 throw a damper on recent Sov iet scientific achievements and the forthcoming celebration on Thursday of the 40th anniver sary of the Bolshevik revolution. The experts .said there still must be a potent group in the Red Army strongly loyal to Zhukov and violently opposed to Khrushchev despite the fact that top-ranking military officers promptly joined in denunciation of their former commander pub licly. Position Shaky Khrushchev's purges may leave him standing on a pedes tal, but a shaky one, the experts said. The Zhukov disgrace definite ly stunned the Soviet people and particularly the men in the arm ed forces who had served under him. Hundreds of party agitators were in the field over the wees end as far away as East Ger many trying to soften the shock. The Communist East German news agency ADN said even Khrushchev and Marshal Rodion Y. Malinovsky, who replaced Zhukov as defense minister, spoke at party meetings. This underlined the gravity of the situation as Khrushchev viewed it. Pravda, the Soviet Commun ist party newspaper, summed up the charges against Zhukov in lengthy article and editorial on Sunday. Labeled False Hero In short, it said he had made himself a false hero and subord inated party policies to armed forces policy. In a companion article, Gen. Ivan S. Konev, chief of the War saw Pact armies and an old col league of Zhukov, belittled and ridiculed Zhukov's military ach ievements. Zhukov apparently was able to retain his rank of marshal and his Communist Party and Supreme Soviet membership al though he was booted3 out of the Central committee. He apparently will be given a minor post in some military district or school. Bike Rider Injured In City Accident Kenneth Gordon Ritchey, 15, of 846 Brookdale rd., Medford, was treated and released at Sacred Heart hospital where he was taken by Medford Ambu lance Service about 9:30 a.m. Saturday after his bicycle he was riding was involved in an accident at the corner of East Main st. and Modoc ave., ac cording to city police.
