Dogs Dining on Mailmen
To Bring Letters, Action
Washington OPi The na-1 The second will be somewhat
tion's mailmen struck a
mighty blow today against
their sometimes foe the dog.
The Post Office Depart
ment announced a stream
lined one-two program of mas
sive resistance against the
owners of dogs whose favorite
dish is mailman-on-the-hoof.
If you possess such a beast:
First, you get a letter
from your local postmaster
informing you in a friendly
way your dog is under the
impression your , mailman is
a hors d oeuvre. The letter
will make useful suggestions.
Next, if the mailman's
arrival is still the big moment
in your dog's feeding sched
ule, you get a letter saying
from now on your mail may
be picked up at the post
office.
A Post Office spokesman
said the tone of the first let
ter will be polite and helpful.
cooler.
He said the department is
sending postmasters some
sample letters, but they may
use their discretion about
what to say to meet "local
circumstances."
Postmaster General Arthur
E. Summerfield said the de
partment decided on its new
program only '"after months
of study of this dog-bite prob
lem and continued annoy
ance to our carriers by some
dogs."
The spokesman said the de
partment estimated in 1956
mailmen suffer about 6,000
dog bites a year. That's about
one for every 20 mailmen.
"We believe that figure is un
changed," he said.
Physics Lectures on
Film Scheduled
- Oakland, Calif. (IP Ex-
:perimental physics lectures
: on film will begin in Alameda
County high schools to help
solve the increasing problem
. of turning out more scientists
in the United States.
The films consist of 162"
half-hour lectures and experi
ments on such subjects as
"properties of matter" and
"nuclear physics." It was pro
duced for the county at a cost
of 513,500 by Encyclopaedia
- Brittannica Films.
Dr. Vaughn D. Seidel, coun
ty schools superintendent, said
the films are not designed as
a replacement of the high
school physics Instructor.
"It serves to bring an ex
pert into the classroom as a
"colleague of the regular in
structor." Seidel said.
The film "expert" is Dr.
Harvey White, vice chairman
: of the University of California
; physics department. He was
: picked for the job by the Na
tional Academy of Sciences
and committee of the na-
tion's top educators.
The film producers said a
primary aim is to halt the
sharp decline in recent years
of science teachers. They said
that in the past five years 60
per cent of qualified instruct-
ors went into industry instead
of teaching.
Employers Warned
On Payroll Reports
Salem !fft Covered em
ployers who fail to make
quarterly employment and
payroll reports within 30 days
are liable for possible added
tax assessments under an
amendment to the unemploy
ment law approved by the
1957 Legislature.
David Cameron, commis
sion contributions supervisor,
said the amendment gives the
commission authority to esti
mate payrolls and tax assess
ments if reports are not re
ceived within 30 days.
"The estimate then is .sent
to the employer who is given
10 days in which to make any
necessary corrections. If an
audit discloses higher taxable
payrolls, the commission is
given power to make the
added assessment," Cameron
said.
Nearly 28,000 firms with
employment of 400,000 and
1957 payrolls aggregating $1,
600,000.000 now are subject
to the laws, he said.

Utah Town Boosters
Planning New Tricks
Roosevelt, Utah (IT) The
Bullberry Boys, dead set on
putting this small central Utah
town on the map, have new
tricks up their leather-trimmed
sleeves.
The booster organization,
weary of the lack of acclaim
accorded their town, burst
the national news scene with
a 158-mile race from Salt Lake
City to Roosevelt between two
men on foot and two on horse
back. The horses and riders made
it in 57 hours, 7 minutes. One
of the two Brigham Young
University sprinters called it
quits early in the race, and the
second popped out in the
stretch. 60 miles from the fin
ish line.
But the real winners of the
contest -were the Bullberry
Boys and Roosevelt. At least
"the Boys" figure more Amer
icans have heard of their town
than most other communities
with 1,600 residents.
Bullberry Boys president
Lynn Whitlock said plans are
now afoot to sponsor a "trail
ride"' from Salt Lake City to
Roosevelt, with contestants in
vited from the United States,
Canada and Mexico. Rodeos
and other typical "western"
events also are planned, and
the city fathers arei thinking
of building a pavilion to ac
commodate hundreds of out-of-town
visitors.
As for the horse vs. man
race, residents and partici
pants are so enthusiastic they
want to repeat the- contest ;
next year. The Bullberry Boys
plane was last reported.

Russia Wants
Voice in Future
Of Antarctic
Moscow (IP) Russia's chief
Antarctic explorer said today
it is not yet certain that Ant
arctica is really a continent
but if it is Russia wants a
voice in determining its fu
ture. Mikhail Mikhailovich So
mov, chief of Soviet Antarc
tic expeditions, also admitted
in an interview that "due to
unexpected difficulties" Rus
sia is lagging behind the
United States and Britain in
fulfilling its international
geophysical year program in
the Antarctic.
Succtss Hailed
But the 49-year-old scien
tist hailed the "brilliant suc
cess" of the international co
operation in exploring the
Antarctic. He is back here for
a breather after personally
leading Soviet teams to the
polar area.
If the Soviet share of the
year's work is behind sched
ule, it is because the Russians
are attempting a most diffi
cult task.
The main Soviet Antarctic
project is to establish a base
at the "pole of inaccessability"
the inland point farthest
from all coasts.
A group of Soviet scientists
left the main Russian estab
lishment at Mirny, on the
Indian Ocean side of the con
tinent on Dec. 27 to forge
their way to the spot.
Somov said Russia does not
claim sovereignty over any
specific part of the Antarctic.
However, he said it "would
be unjust to settle the status
without Russian participar
tion." '
Claims Unrecognized
Several countries, including
Britain, Chile, Australia, Nor
way and New Zealand, claim
portions of the Antarctic. The
United States and Russia do
not recognize the claims and
have staked none of their
own.
Somov added that "It isn't
of any immediate practical
importance. The remote fu
ture will decide."
One of the principal tasks
of the Rusian expedition is to
determine whether the sixth
continent actually exists.
"It isn't by any means es
tablished whether land exists
under the immense ice pack
or only an ocean dotted with
several islands," Somov said.
Teen-Agers Hold
14,856 Jobs in '57
Salem (IP) Oregon teen
agers held 14,856 industrial
jobs last year, according to
work permit records of the
State Labor Bureau.
Labor Commissioner Nor
man O. Nilsen said the total
reflects the downward trend
in state employment with a
10 per cent drop over the pre
vious year in the 14 to 18-year-old
group.
Cannery and other food
processing plants presented
most employment opportuni
ties with an estimated total of
4,200 jobs held by minors dur
ing the vacation season.
Mercantile establishments
stood second and manufactur
ing third in the industries em
ploying minors. One-tenth of
the teenagers worked in res
taurants, motels and other
public housekeeping occupa
tions. Nilsen said that while food
processing offered more vaca
tion work than any other in
dustry, such plants had to
turn away two out of five
young job-seekers. '
About 1000 teenagers in
1957 held vacation or after
school jobs in places of amuse
ment, organized youth camps
and other recreation centers.
SOMEWHAT BEWILDERED by it all, Astra, female Ger
man shepherd, allows Ganga, 10-pound baby tiger, to crawl
over her head at West 'Berlin Zoo. Ganga was abandoned
by mother, is being nursed with Astra's pups.(International)

Dr. Edward Hodgson resign
ed as medical director of the
maximum security building at
Eastern State hospital Wed
nesday and charged that the
building was being converted
into nothing more than a lock
up which has "no medical
program at all."
Hodgson has been critical ,
of the administration of the j
hospital since before an up
rising Oct. 29 when patients j
seized control of the security
building and held 36 em- j
ployees hostage for nine i
hours. I
Hodgson said there is noth
ing for patients in the build
ing to do. The hobby shop
was the only effective treat
ment program the building
ever had, but it was closed
before the uprising because it
posed "some sort of threat to
security," he added.
