AIR Dough Popular On Gift List Washington IW Dough in one form or another is tops on the gift list of U.S. servicemen overseas, the Red Cross learned in a recent poll. "The guys who don't want it in the form of a postal monev order would like it in the shape of homemade cakes or cookies," said one soldier in Europe. Money orders, the Red Cross said are easier to cash than checks, since a fee is generally charged for checks. The servicemen stressed that thev Drefer their fresh- from-the-oven delicacies indi vidually wrapned in tin foil. nacked carefully in metal con tainers, and shipped by air mail. This, avoids the disap oointment of finding crumbs instead of finding Mom's spe cial brownies. Other items on the most wanted list are hometown newsDaner subscriptions, mag azines, and photographs of the kids and pets. Gifts of a "local" flavor ranee from skindivine and fishing equipment for the Car ibbean area to jackets and cameras for Alaska. Two Universal dislikes are cigarettes and any items which smack of the military. A serv iceman in Turkey reported however, that "what this country needs is a good cigar." In Europe, the list of arti cles labelled most undesir able include watches, ties, cameras, and sporting goods. All can be obtained at the PX at lower prices than prevail at home. CONDITIONING SHOP IN COOL COMFORT ON THE HOTTEST DAY! On "Wednesday. May 7. the lumbering unit of the first vpar industrial arts class, with their instructor Lee Harter, took a field day trip to the TVTpdfnrd Comoration saw mill and watched the handling of the logs from the pond to tne green-chain. More than 20 students made the trip. On Tuesday, May 6, Har ter's second year industrial arts class visited Clogston's cabinet shop to see production type machinery lor caDinei making in operation. There were 8 students in this group. Carl Totman's general sci ence and biology classes had two special speakers last week. They were Charles R. Shepard, game biologist of the Oregon State Game commis sion and Cole Rivers, fisheries biologist also from the Game commisison. They spoke on conservation and problems confronting them in their ac tivities, especially in recrea tion and resources. A stork shower, honoring Mrs. Harvey Hueners, the for mer Carol Iverson. was held at the home of Mrs. V. E. Long on the evening of May 6. Mrs. Long's daughter, Miss Frohs. was assistant hostess. Guests present were Mrs. Hueners Sr. and daugn- ter Charleen, Mrs. Arthur Iverson and son Mike. Mrs. Sid Hammond, Mrs. Bobbie Miesner (former Roberta tVicksten) of Anaheim, Calif.. Mrs. Sofia Robbins, Dianne Source of Eel Power Described Seattle. Wash. HP) A re searcher at the University of Washington Medical School thinks he knows where elec tric eels get the shocking power with which to stun their Drev. T)r. John Luft, who report ed on electron - microscope studies he made of shock-producing tissues of electric eels, exDlained that the sea ani mals us about three-fifths of their body length as an elec tricity-producing organ. He said "battery" tissues in eels are specialized modifica tions of ordinary muscle tis sue, which are arranged so that the electrical output of individual cells is discharged cumulatively instead of sepa rately. Electrical impulses are a feature of all living cells," Dr. Luft said, "and every mus cle-fiber cell has a small elec tric Dotential across it ofi about one-tenth of a volt." But in eels, he explained, the electric cells are arranged "so that the batteries can be said to be Svired in series' to apply the total shocking effect." "In this way," he said, "5,000 cells in a row along the eel's tail create a shock ing power of 500 volts." An eel produces enough electricity to light an electric light bulb intermittently, Husbands!
