MAIL TRIBUNE, Medforo. Ore., Nomination Ruling Given By Clerk Any person now registered as a member of either major political party who was not a candidate for nomination at the primary may accept a nomination for election in the general election, according to Freeman Holmer, director of the elections division of the secretary of state's office, Salem. The statement was in reply to a question asked of County Clerk Bereth P. Hopkins, re cently. There had been doubt that a person now registered as a member of the Republi can or Democratic parties and continuing that registra tion through August could be nominated under the pro- New High Speed Film Developed Rochester, N. Y. W A new high-speed, high-contrast color film for missile tracking and other specialized uses has been developed by the Eastman Kodak Com pany's Research Laboratories. The new film, known as SOI 2 18, is a fast negative color film which possesses as an important feature a high contrast. This feature, along with the color contrast, makes the tar get object more easily visible against a background such as a gray or blue sky, according to Allan G. Millikan, senior research chemist at Kodak Research Laboratories. Millikan noted that missle and rocket tracking requires both special cameras fitted with elaborate electronic de vices and film with unusual characteristics. Where long focal length lenses with low light-gathering power are used to follow the flight of a fast-moving missle, this high speed film is proving especially useful, he said. In some missle-tracking the color photo may be examined as a negative. Or a color print may boost contrast and give an even better record for eval uation. It is expected, said Milli kan, the new color system will find specialized uses in industry as well as in the field of guided missies and rocketry.

The Oregon law states any minor political party, indi vidual registered elections or assembly of not less than 250 registered electors of the state, county, precinct or other electoral district may nominate one candidate for each public office to be filled at the general election. The candidate must prepare and file a certificate of nomina tion. Mrs. Hopkins has reported that many addresses have been changed recently by the post offices in Jackson coun ty in both city and rural routes. Address Changes Considered She stated that it is not necessary for residents to re register where the address has been changed by the post of fice. She added that it would aid the elections department if voters who have been af fected by the change notify the county clerk's office. The changes must be in person at the office or by a card bear ing the signature of the writ er. No changes will be made by telephone, she reported. Mrs. Hopkins reminded voters those persons moving from one precinct into anoth er must re-register to be elig ible to vote in the May 16 primary election. Anyone changing their name by mar riage or for other reasons must also register. It was also mentioned that any persons who did not vote in at least one of the two elec tions held in 1956 will have their name removed from the list of eligible voters as re quired by law. Mrs. Hopkins stated that anyone in doubt about their registration should contact the office at SPring 3-6211, extension 200 or 217.

John has been a fine husband in every way, except that he has one fault that gets my my goat. He says I'm sensitive, but I can't help it. This both ers me very much. John likes to hold me up to ridicule in front of people especially his own family. He happens to be a very good storyteller and he really holds people's attention, making me the butt of all his jokes. Some times he brings up events that are ancient history to point out some error of mine. I really resent this when he does it in front of his. fam ily. We don't see them often and they only know me through these silly stories of his. John S. Eileen doesn't know when she is well off. I know many a man who is lovey-dovey with his wife in public and really takes things out on her in private. Eileen admits that I always treat her with love and respect when we are at home. The fact is that I enjoy tell ing a good story. I don't mean any harm by it. Everyone gets a good laugn out 01 it every one, that is, except Eileen She really fumes. It's so silly to make an issue of it. Eileen especially resents my ribbing her in front of my family because they objected to our marriage.- But that was a long, long time ago and and they have completely accept ed her and bear her no ill will. I don't see any reason to get upset about this harmless bit of fun. The Council: No, we don't think Eileen is being over senstitive.

Psychologists believe that the kind of storytelling Eileen describes is really "masked hostility." That is, John has found a way of psychological ly attacking his wife and claiming innocence at the same time. Eileen is deprived of the right to even defend herself because after all, "it's only a joke." The men John describes who are nice to their wives in public but nasty in private have other problems, but their behavior doesn't justify John's actions. No, we don't suggest that John turn nasty it home. But we do think it would be a good idea for him to get into the habit of expressing some of his irritations and disagree ments with his wife when he feels them. Eileen should be willing to accept this kind of criticism when she feels it to be warranted and should be honest enough to argue the question out when she feels her husband is being unfair. If the marriage is soundly rooted, as this one appears to be, the husband and wife should not fear the occasional tiffs that arise between per sons living in any intimate re lationship.

The Domestic mice form only a very tiny fraction of the group of rodents which are mice. Quite a number of the wild members of this group are handsome, beautifully furred, with habits as fascinating as those of the tiger, lion, or ele phant. But on a small scale, of course. Take th harvest mouse. This tiny, dainty creature builds a round nest in tall grasses the outside with coarse grasses, the inside lined with finely shredded dry grass. During mating season, the male voices a tiny shrill bugle-like song in a key al most too high for the human ear. The white-footed mouse, too, is a musician. On oc casion it indulges in a pro longed buzzing hum. It also makes a drumming sound by tapping its front feet rapidly on some object such as a dry hollow reed or a dead leaf. It has a keen homing in stinct: taken prisoner, marked and released two miles from the point of capture it has been known to find its way back within a few days. Ferocious Hunier The grasshopper mouse, also known as the scorpion mouse, is a ferocious little hunter. It stalks its prey on soft padded feet, nose to the ground. Like the bloodhound, it gets excited when on a fresh trail, uttering a series of sharp squeaks or barks. Once its prey is found, it launches itself at the victim's throat, SAVE! SAVE! SAVE!

Riverside Ave. Be Sure To Send Your Cat's Noseprint If You Want By DOC QUIGG United Press Correspondent New York (IP) Milton Weiss, who formed the world's first concern devoted exclusively to life insurance policies for pedigreed pooches, now is branching out into pedigreed pussycats. If you want to get your cat's life insured, up to $13, 000, you have to send in its noseprint, have the cat inocu lated for feline distemper, and prove its pedigree and value. And Weiss doesn't mind tell ing you it's going to take a heap of proving to get him to set any cat's value at $13, 000. He established that figure because it was already in effect as the maximum in his dog insurance policies. He has issued several thousand dog policies since his Animal In surance Company of Ameri ca started business last Aug. 1. The Nose Knows He accepts mail applica tions from anywhere in the continental United States and Canada. With the application form, he supplies a noseprint ribbon which he has develop ed himself non-toxic, using a mineral dye that is deep blue-black, food for three or four prints. You press it against the tiny nose, then press the paper against the nose, and you get a print which he says is a positive identification. . Weiss says Jimmy Duran te's old aphorism "The nose knows" applies with high cer tainty to dogs and cats. When the animal dies, the veteri narian puts its noseprint on the death certificate, under the Weiss plan. "I've never taken a cat noseprint myself," he says, "but they come out very clear. Cats don't seem to shy away from the paper as dogs do. We get some smeared dog's noses." Good Accelerators Weiss doesn't believe cats are as accident-prone as dogs. For one thing, they can ac celerate fast, in front of a car. And another, you don't see many pedigreed cats meandering around outside that's a recreation enjoyed al most exclusively by alley cats.

All these mice are indus trious reproducers but none can match the meadow mouse it has been, known to have 17 litters of four to 9 each, with young in the nest from January to December.
