Scientist Says
San Diego, Calif. (CPU Dr.
Milton U. Clauser, vice presi
dent of Space Technology lab
oratories in Los Angeles, says
man is not as close to playing
Buck Rogers as he likes to
think.
"We are ready to put man
into outer space," Clauser told
600 delegates to a two-day
symposium on space explora
tion Tuesday. "But we just
don't have the hardware to
allow him to travel to Mars,
land' and explore, and then
return to earth with his find
ings." .
Satellite launchings have
led the laymen, as well as
members of the technical fra
ternity, to think that man' is
on the edge of exploring
space but it just isn't so, the
scientist said.
Difficult Problems
Clauser said there still are
a great number of difficult
problems to solve before
space travel is possible. He
called - for a step-up in re
search to answer the question.
Dr. Morton Alperin, direc
tor of advanced studies for
the Air Force Office of Scien
tific Research, told the as
sembled scientists and engin
eers the United States cannot
afford to lose the lead in the

race.
He said space travel is
closely tied in with the mili

jewelry Thieves

Police today followed up on

$700,000.
The smash-and-grab bandits,
clad in T-shirts and with
handkerchiefs clamped in
their teeth to hide the lower
portions of their faces worked
with professional precision
Monday in robbing the Tobias
Jewelry Store.
The bandits sacked the
store of diamond rings, brace
lets, and necklaces, ignoring
less expensive loot.
One of the rubbers threw a
war surplus smoke bomb in
to the store while another
smashed a display window and
cleaned out the valuable jew
elry. The men escaped in a blue
sedan.
County Health
Group Criticized
Portland (CPU The gov
erning council of the Multno
mah County Medical Society
Tuesday night accepted a re
port sharply critical of the
county health department,
rapping is particularly for
last spring's head lice scare
in Portland schools.
The medical society report
declared that the diagnosis of
an epidemic of head lice in
festations "could not be con
firmed by physicians or other
qualified experts."
The report also listed three
other indictments of the pub
lic health department: It has
treated, children with acute
illnesses, despite a lack of ade
quate personnel or facilities;
personnel of the department
have, in some instances, dis
paraged private physicians
treating patients; misuse of
public money by immunizing
children whose parents could
well afford that service from
private physicians.
The report concluded
"Corrections of defects in ad
ministration of the Multno
mah County Division qf Pub
lic Health are urgent" and it
added, "Restoration of popu
lar confidence in the division
and of physicians' confi
dence in its administration,
requires that the division be
restored to its proper func
tion."

Gambling Group
Faces Jury Probe
Indianapolis, Ind. (UPD An

weeks on bets of $1,000 or
more, mostly on football
games, comes under the close
scrutiny of a federal grand
jury here next week.
More than 170 persons
most of them identified as
patrons who could afford to
make big bets to satisfy their
gambling whims, were order
ed to appear as witnesses.
Some of those subpoenaed
were well known, including
Herbert (Zeppo) Marx of the
famous brother comedy team
in movies, and H. L. Hunt,
one of the world's richest men
and head of a fabulously huge
oil firm in Dallas, Tex.
U. S. tax agents swarmed

known gamblers and a for

failure to have $50 federal

The Family Council
Editor's note: The Faintly Council consists of a Judge, a psychiatrist,
three clergymen, a newspaper editor, a women's editor and two writers
Each article s a summary ot an actual report The Family Council does
not give advice; it merely reports on problems that have been dealt
with by responsible agencies and counselor.
Sharon S. I want to get
married.
Mrs. L. S. I always want
ed her to go to college.
Sharon S. My mother
might be the right thing for
and I are having a terrific
feud over me. I am 19 and a
college sophomore. The big
question is: Will it be mar
riage or college next year?
A perfectly swell guy of
25 wants to marry me and I
feel I am mature enough. I
want a big family and I feel
the sooner I get started the
better.
I just dread going back to
that horrible women's college
where I am enrolled. The girls
and the teachers are really
for the birds. Supposedly I
am majoring in history, which
I detest and which I chose
because my mother likes it.
How much nicer it would
be to have my own home and
husband next year instead of
sweating in a hot library and
freezing in a cold dormitory,
constantly yakking about
nothing with girls I hate.
. , .
Mrs. L. S. Like most
mothers I guess I have wanted
to give Sharon the advan
tages I couldn't have. It was
my most cherished dream
from the time she was born to
have her go to college.
But that isn't the only rea
son I want her to go back to
school next year. Her father
and I really feel she isn't ma
ture enough yet to make a
choice.
The young man she wants
to marry doesn't seem to us
the right type for her. The
big thing that recommends
him to Sharon, as far as we
can see, is that he wants to
marry her fast.
Sharon is the kind of girl
who completely lacks disci
pline and I think college is
a good place to develop it.
I'm afraid when she finds, out
what married life is really
like she'll get as sick of it
as she is of school.
.
The Council: Sharon's
picture of her. college life is
evidence enough of her im
maturity and lack of prepard
ness for marriage.
Mrs. L. S. is, however, mak-

ing a mistake by forcing the
college issue. It is fine for
parents to have cherished
dreams for their children, but
the dreams shouldn't be dia
grams. There should be some
flexibility to allow express
ion of the child's individual
ity. Sharon cannot benefit from
her college experience merely
by sweating in libraries and
freezing in dormitories for
another three years. Mrs. L. S.
should face the fact that what
she really wanted for her
daughter was not a mere piece
of paper inscribed with the
Bachelor of Arts degree, but
knowledge, capability, poise
and refinement.
It is possible to get these
things outside of college
and it is possible to miss them
completely at college.
As long as the issue is col
lege in its present form or
marriage, Sharon will natur
ally choose marriage. But
Mrs. L. S. is right that in her
present frame of mind Sharon
is liable to get as fed up with
marriage as she is with school.
Sharon undoubtedly needs to
develop discipline, the ability
to get along with others and
a knowledge of how to make
the most of her life in any
given situation.
A job may do the trick for
her. Possibly a change of col
lege or of her major would
help. Since she is so deter
mined to have a big family,
a domestic science course
might be the right hting for
