eept it contradicts a scientific
principle.
The principle is that "when
Sfcere is a diffuse sound field
w an enclosed space, the
und pressure level increases
three decibels at the boun
flry," said Dr. Howard C.
Hardy, an acoustical scientist
from Chicago. He lamented
that science seems to under
stand little about the noise
and other phenomena gener
ated among people by mar
tinis and closeness.
He called for a real scien
tific effort to get the answers
and suggested a young scien
tist could make such a study
the basis for his doctorate.
He'd had to be dedicated, of
course, Hardy said in making
his suggestion to the Acousti
cal Society of America, be
cause it "may be difficult to
preserve the proper attitude
of scientific detachment."

"Our ORTHO' program is,
by far, the most economical"
Tve compared the cost of spray materials very closely and have found
our ORTHO program to be, by far, the most economical,'' states Eldon
Zicker, owner of Totem Pole Ranch, Yakima, Wash, pictured above right,
discussing his ORTHO program with Fieldman Vernon Langemack. "There
is certainly no doubt that the extensive ORTHO research and product
development program benefits the grower in terms of dollars and cents."
Don't delay start an ORTHO program today!
This report is just one of many received from leading growers who have
found that an ORTHO program has helped them grow better quality
crops. And, when you buy the ORTHO program, all the personal, on-your-ground
technical advice and expert services of your ORTHO Fieldman
are provided without any extra charge. '

There is an ORTHO FieMman in this area
i the effect of time, space, age,
social level, sex-a dangerous
area-and many other factors,
he said. "There are, perhaps,
international variations such
as cold-war tension, language,
accent and space required for
elbow motion."
As a starter toward the
studies which he hoped some
young scientist would under
take, he contributed his own
scientific observations. Among
them were these:
Once the acoustical balance
is established at a successful
cocktail party, the sound pres
sure level is independent of
the acoustical conditions of
the place where the party is
being held-that is, it is the
same whether it is held in a
room or outdoors on a lawn.
Yet there is a definite dif
ference in the- quality of the
noise, "depending on whether
the affair is stag, doe, or mix
ed. Average age has only a
slight effect."
"After a certain warm-up
period, there is a thermody
namic change of state from a
condition where there are
more sound receivers than
emitters, to the opposite con
dition. This is marked by a
rise in the thermal and acous
tic level."
But the rate of increase in
the sound level up to the point
where the noise is balanced
in the center of the pack "has
a strong dependence oij the
productivity of the bartend
ers. This appears also to have
something to do with the in
troduciton of negative resist
ance in the internal circuits of
the sound sources."

Miss Robinson Has
Articles Printed
Ashland - Two articles by
Miss Helene M. Robinson, act
ing chairman of the Southern
Oregon college music depart
ment, are in the current issue
of the Oregon Music1 Educa
tor. "How Can We Teach For
Excellence?" defends the goal
of excellence for music stu
dents. In this article, Miss
Robinson affirms that "teach
ing for excellence is not easy.
There are no short cuts; and
there is no tradition of excel
lence in America as there is
in older European cultures."
By maintaining a conviction
that it is worthwhile and a
faith that students can achieve
it, excellence can and will be
obtained.
Good planning, accuracy,
technical skill, interpretation,
intensive study, creativity,
performance, and leadershio,
are the contributing factors in
leading to the achievement of
excellence in musicianship ac
cording to the article.
Miss Robinson's second con
tribution cites the values ac
crueing to music students who
join and activelv participate
in their professional organi
zation, the Music Educators

Geneva Meeting
Should Be More
Than Maneuver
(Continued from Page 1)
I am inclined to believe that
clamor for meetings at the
"summit" has been in part due
to the impression that nego
tiations with anyone other
than the President are useless
and inconclusi've. Now that
we have a conditional comit-
ment for another meeting at
the "summit" I hope that the
coming meeting of the foreign
ministers in Geneva, with the
new Secretary of State par
ticipating, will make it clear
that he is the direct instrument
of the President and that use
ful decisions and understand
ings can be reached in dealing
through him. And if there is
to be a "summit" meeting,
preparations by the foreign
ministers are vital to any
hope for progress and achieve
ment there.
If all critical issues were to
be deferred for discussion and
final settlement at a meeting
of the heads of state, we
would find ourselves in a
hopeless jam and in an im
possible position.
Special Importance
In my opinion, in view of
all that has transpired in the
past weeks, the meeting at
Geneva takes on special im
portance and should be more
than a maneuver or just a
technical procedure leading to
a meeting of the heads of state
If the meetings at Geneva first
faces up to the immediate
critical issues and is conduct
ed in good faith, it will have
an important bearing on
whether there can be any
basis tor success at tne sum
mit" and on the prospects for
peace. I hope that what hap
pens at Geneva will enable
us to continue talks with the
Russians in our efforts to save
the peace.
If the forthcoming visit of
the Vice President to Moscow
can help in some way, and if
it provides the Kremlin with
an opportunity to clear some
of the air, then I am all for
it. The Vice President not only
will carry with him the pres
tige of his office, but will go
as a special instrument of the
President.
Should Premier Khrushchev
indicate that he, himself,
would like to vist Washing
ton, it might be well to en
courage him. I think Khrush
chev needs first-hand expos
ure to the United States and
a good look at it to balance
off his over-assessment of
what his missiles and indus
trial might can do' to frighten
us.
Couldn't Risk Trip
I tried to persuade Stalin
to visit the United States on
several occasions, but I was
led to understand that he
could not risk the trip because
of the situation at home.
But after my own trip to
Potsdam and the previous
trips of Roosevelt to meet
Stalin, I felt that there was
no longer any sense for an
American president to meet
the Russian dictators at their
convenience and thought it
was high time they came to
me'et with us here.
We traveled great distances
to show that even as a lead
ing power we did not insist
upon anyone coming to see
us on our own grounds. Dic
tators have a way of sum
moning spokesmen of other
nations either to bully or be
guile them into surrender or
false security.
Moscow, as the capital of
the Communist world, has
staged meetings of satellites,
neighbors and so-called neu
trals intended to propagandize
the notion that all roads lead
to Moscow.
Seat in Kremlin
From time to time some
members of the Kremlin have
travelled to Peiping to plac
ate the Red Chinese dictators,
in recognition of that coun
try's rapidly developing pow
er and its position as a pos
sible rival. But the seat of the
Communist and satellite
world continues to be physic
ally in Moscow and in the
Kremlin. ,
I often wondered why Neh
ru, whom I regard as one of
the most intelligent of our
modern world leaders, failed
to sense the folly of his neu
tralism in the face of such
overwhelming evidence of
Communit intentions to dom
inate the free world.
I could understand the
plight of India geographically
and economically, and. when
President, I did everything I
could to extend assistance to
India. But when the free
world was confronted with
brutal attacks by the Com
munists in several critical
areas, I found little under
standing and no support and
even open criticism from
Nehru in our actions to de-
sion. I
Quotes From the News
By UNITED PRESS INTERNATIONAL
New York-Harry Truman, lecturing at Columbia uni
versity: "I was raised a politician-from the precinct to president,
and I'm proud to be a politician."
Houston, Tex.-Tidel Castro, complaining about the police
and the press:,
"My mind needs rest. I am not criticizing. I want lo be
here as a visitor, not as some strange man. Too many police
men, microphones, cameras. I am almost blind."
Montgomery, Ala-Convict Earl Phillips, recaptured after
a prison break:
"I tried lo get free because I have been deprived of every
thing that a human wants. I thought I would get out and get
some of it. Everybody else is getting it."
Cambridge, Mass-Philip Smythe, bank manager, foiling
an attempted holdup by telling the robber:
"You're not kidding me. Now go away and don't bother
me."
Though sorely tried, we
never lost patience with India
even when our pleas for co
operation were steadily reject
ed. This situation was exploit
ed by the Russians with seri
ous damage to the free world.
Time To Add Weight
Today Nehru is confronted,
right on his own doorstep,
with the most blatant act of
Communist imperialism, Red
China's attack in Tibet. I
know the dilemma and the
dangers that face Nehru, but
I suggest that the time has
come for him to add his
weight and influence against
the international Communist
aggressors.
The Communists have
shown that they have utter
contempt for the weak and the
neutrals, and no lasting peace
is possible if we forget this.
International communism is
forever probing for weak
spots. It is constantly seeking
to drive a wedge between the
free nations. It is now trying
to split the Allies on several
issues, and we must not per
mit this to happen. .
Voices Raised
I regret that recently in
Britain voices were raised in
petulant criticism of Amer
ican policy which might befc-
ter have been conveyed
through officials channels and
which served no purpose ex
cept to provide the Kremlin
with propaganda material.
As Allies, we must keep
each other fully informed and
never give tne false impres
sion that we are drifting
apart. If we should, in, fact,
permit anything, however pro
voking, to separate any of the
Allies, it would expose us all
to great harm.
And here at home I would
counsel that we act as a unit
ed people in the serious days
ahead of us.

Casfro To Gel
Horse in Texas
Houston, Tex. - (UPD - Fidel
Castro set out today for a
Texas ranch to get a gift
horse. He hoped to take the
young colt with him on an air
plane. The Cuban Prime Minister
denied Monday night any
knowledge of Cubans partici
pating in the rebel invasion of
Panama. "Our relations with
Panama are good," he said.
Castro had planned only a
refueling stop in Houston
Monday on a flight from Mon
treal, Canada, to Buneos Aires
for a conference with his
brother, Raul, commander of
the Cuban army. Also, he
wanted to get the horse.
J. B. Ferguson, an oilman
and race horse owner, invited
Castro to his ranch at Whar
ton, about 65 miles from
Houston, to get the colt.
