Four separate phases of the dishwashing cycle clean th dishes in water hot enough to kill germs. Special design assures sanitized tub as well as sanitized dishes. - Under field and laboratory tests, disease-producing viruses and bacteria were placed on dishes and in General Electric dishwashers. Substantially all were readily killed or re moved by the thorough scrubbing action and high temper atures provided by six separate phases of the cycle. ' West Said Due for Higher Readings Suitland, Md. - (Science Service)- The next 30 days will average colder than nor mal for the eastern two-thirds of the country. The Weather Bureau's long- range forecast calls for tem peratures to be below season al normals from the Rocky Mountains eastward to the At lantic seaboard, with the southern half of the country scheduled for considerably lower than usual thermometer readings. Above normal tem peratures are expected west of the Rocky Mountains. Precipitation is forecast to exceed normal along the Gulf Coast and the Atlantic sea board, with considerable snow from Virginia northward. Subnormal amounts are indi cated for the Missouri and upper Mississippi Valley areas, and also for the west ern intermountain states. In unspecified areas, about normal precipitation is predicted. Prehistoric Ground Sloth Dated by Grains Tucson, Ariz. - (Science Service) - The menu of a giant, bear-like creature that roamed the western United States is helping scientists fill in some blank spaces in the history of man and other animals. Pollen grains which passed relatively unchanged through the digestive tract of the prehistoric ground sloth have given two University of Arizona researchers impor tant information on the dates when the animal lived. By using the carbon-14 "carbon dioxide gas counting method, Dick Shutler Jr. determined that the sloth lived in Ram part Cave, Grand Canyon, be tween 10,000 and 35,000 years ago. Eating Brush Analysis of the pollen grains also indicated that 12,000 years ago the ground sloth was eating pine, juniper and sage brush plants now found at higher altitudes. The climate was cooler and more moist then than it is now. However, 35,500 years ago and 10,000 years ago, when the sloth disappeared, the climate was hot and dry as it is today. Since the animal was able to adapt to wide differences in climate, climatic pressures probably were not responsible for its becoming extinct, Dr. Paul S. Martin, also with the University's Geochronol o g y Laboratories, reported. The most reasonable ex planation, Dr. Martin be lieves, is the appearance of man as a hunter in the sloth's LEGAL NOTICES No. 8949 NOTICE OF SALE IN THE CIRCUIT COURT OF THE STATE OF OREGON FOB THE COUNTY OF JACKSON PROBATE DEPARTMENT In the Matter of the Estate of D.

YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION By S. V. McQueen. Treasurer Magazine Pictures Library Display Ashland - Appearing in the January issue of the Wilson Library bulletin is a picture of a display of weather, na ture, and related books in the Library of Children's Literature at Southern Or egon college. Prepared by college stu dents under the direction of Mrs. Hazel-Ann Hunt, librar ian of children's literature, the display had as its cap tion, "The Good Earth, What Tales She Has to Tell!" The display was in con junction - with , National ' Li brary Week for 1958 and the International Geo physical Year, and was designed es pecially for geography students. Cave Junction to Have Planning Group Cave Junction - The city council Monday night voted to advertise for volunteers to serve on a city planning com mission. Seven members, with not more than two of them to be from outside the city limits is required for the commis sion. Names should be submitted to the city office. The council expressed the hope that some women will volunteer for the service. At present there is no city planning commission. territory. While there is no evidence in the Rampart Cave that man shared the sloth's home site, or, lived there at any time, evidence for this has been found elsewhere. Gypsum Cave, 16 miles east of Las Vegas, Nev., is one example of their "not very peaceful co-existence." Electronic Device Reacts Similarly To Living Nerve Cell New York, (Science Serv ice) A simple electronic de vice that can become fatigued and react in other ways sim ilar to a tiny living nerve cell in the human eye and ear has been constructed by sci entists at the Bejl Telephone Laboratories here. But the similarities to real biological nerves are at best vague and approximate, Leon D. Harmon, initiator of the project, explained. Mounted on Card The inexpensive electronic cell is mounted on a three-by-four inch printed-circuit card. Using a number of the inexpensive cells, research men have recently begun at tempts to follow nature furth er. Cell by cell, they are build ing electronic systems that imitate some of the simple workings of nerve networks in the eye and ear. The electrical cell delivers a series of electrical pulses when stimulated, similar to a living cell. It also fails to respond under conditions where a biological cell would not respond, and can show fa tigue like a living nerve cell that is, slow down under prolonged stimulation. The electronic . nerve cells have been assembled with photo-cells to imitate the simple functions of real nerves in the retina of the eye: "on" receptors, or sense organs, that pulse with in creasing light; "off" receptors that pulse on decreasing light; and "during" receptors that pulse on steady light. The cells can even "see' a rapidly flickering light as a steady one, just as the human eye sees a series of picture flashes in a movie without flicker. So little is known about the operations of the nerves that much of this work is experi mental and intuitive. Yet the electronic cells can provide a new avenue of approach for scientists investigating the functions of nerve networks, the investigator pointed out. Illinois Valley Plans Centennial Dance Cave Junction - A Centen nial Ball will be given under the cosponsorship of the Illi nois Valley Centennial com mittee and the Illinois Valley Democratic club at the Ameri can Legion hall Feb. 14. The Illinois Valley Cen tennial committee is offering three cash prize awards for the best Centennial costumes. GUILTY PARTIES Wetumpka, Ala. -(UPD- Two Elmore county election offi cials who offered a $500 re ward for the "guilty parties" in an election fraud have themselves been charged with tampering with the ballot-box. J. B. Ruffin, a farmer, and Herman R. Evans, an electrician-plumber, are accused of intentionally miscounting ballots. The Philippine islands are composed of 10 large and 970 small islands. 'Porkies' To Race On Fossil Event Portland -(UPD- Plans have been disclosed here for a race at Fossil this fall in which there definitely will be no jockeys. ' There will be no "han dlers," either. The race will be among porcupines. Jack Steiwer, Fossil sheep rancher attending the Na tional Wool Growers conven tion here, said the porcupine races would not be new. They were held at Fossil in 1928 and are being revived as a feature of the Oregon Cen tennial at the Wheeler county fair Sept. 4-6. Steiwer said porcupines would be placed in a 50-foot circle and the first one to reach the outside of the circle wins. Two problems face the pro moters: Catching the porcu pines and getting them into the center of the circle. Device Controls Brooder Temperatures Washington -Science Serv ice) A temperature control device that simulates the heat-sensing ability of a baby chick is reported by the U.S. Department of Agriculture here. It provides nearly ideal conditions for chicks under infrared brooder lamps. The device consists of a four inch black globe that loses heat by radiation, conduction and convection in the same way a chick loses its body heat. Thus, a temperature change that would affect the chick would affect the de vice. By knowing the heat sensitivity of the chick at all times, scientists can better control the brooder temperature. QUICK TRIP Simsbury, Conn. - (UPD - It took Charles H. Kaman only five minutes to get home from work when notified his house was on fire. Kaman, president of Kaman Aircraft, flew home with fire extinguishers in one of his helicopters. T i M I SAVE MONEY! DO IT YOURSELF RESTORE!
