Herzog will deliver the Memorial day address at the VA cemetery at Eagle Point May 30. The ceremonies start at 1:30 p.m. A new note is to be sound ed this year, summed up in the Memorial day message. "This day is more than a day of tribute to the dead. It is a day of dedication for the living-to be prepared to make similar sacrifices for the same ideals." Banks I. Paul, assistant manager, will be MC, with the Eagle Point Cub Scouts, the Muzzioli Accofdion band, and service organizations par ticipating in the ceremonies.' Chaplain Roger Pryor will offer the invocation and Chap lain Lawrence E s k a y the benediction. The color guard and firing squad of Camp White will conduct the mili tary , massing of colors and salute to the dead. A little blue daisy is the symbol of an organization among the service groups which has been relatively ob scure during the 10 years of its existence. This is the Blue Star Moth ers, with national member ship, which represent the mothers of all veterans who returned home from the wars. The Blue Star Mothers in this area participate in the work of the VAVS and are here the third Wednesday of each month. They have an adopted ward and provide sewing for all the members. There are about 150 Blue Star Mothers in southern Ore gon. The largest chapter is at Grants Pass where there are 62 mothers. Other chapters, scattered in the valley are at Cave Junction, Medford, Roses burg, and several nearby towns. Jennie L. Smith is president of the Grants Pass chapter. All of which may give a reas on for including the blue daisy among the other flowers made by veterans and sold at this time of year. Pat Graham, DAV state commander, reminds m e m - bers of the state convention this year at Salem. The dates are June 25 through 27.

FORD TRUCK or Highway 99 Central Point Phone: NO 4-1824 The Inquiring Mi This series of articles, on many different subjects, results from work by senior students at the school of journalism at the University of Oregon. Each is a con densed version of a full-length thesis written as partial requirement for graduation at the school. - (This is the second in a two-part series on the medi cal uses of hypnosis.) By William Debout In a sense hypnosis is its own worst ' enemy. Almost anyone can master it and use it for many different purposes -many cl which are danger ous or unethical. Dr. John G. Watkins, chief clinical . psychologist at the Veterans Administration Hos pital at Portland, and other experts in hypnosis are con vinced, as a result of their experiments, that it is quite possible to do a great deal of harm with improper use of the phenomenon. Traditionally, the theory that no one can be hypnotized against his will has been ac cepted by the majority of News and Notes From Camp White bus" was changed due to con fusion with Dominews, the monthly published by the members. Greater attention to employee hews is noted in the new mimeographed letter. Three area officials visited the domiciliary last week They were: L. O. Janssen, area chief of special services; Eliza beth Jung, area chief, nursing service, and E. C. Maher, area representative of the safety and fire protection service. Recently released color movies of the Fuchs Antarctic expedition were shows to domiciliary members Wednes day evening. They presented not only the hardships endur ed but the risks taken in crossing the ice cap of the continent. The Sno-Cats - products of Medford industry - showed their tractor superiority in meeting the test. Bud Ash, who arranged the show for the Elks, offered colored slides of his own use of this equipment in Oregon. He is an expert in snow meas urement and now travels this way as a hobby. The domiciliary clinic has been headed by six chief medical officers, including the present incumbent, Dr. A. S. Anderson. They were Dr. Wil liam E. White, Dr. Arthur W. Schulz, Dr. William P. Chis holm, Dr. C. K: Todd, and Dr. Wallace Pianka, in that order. They showed a Robin Hood picture in the theatre recently in which there was a consider able amount of swordplay. One of the scenes lasting at least 10 minutes was a little too theatrical. Finally, one member, a little bored, ex claimed: "If there ain't any blood, I'm going to leave." The music of Liberace was coming from the TV set in the Green room. Only one man was seated listening in rapt attention. He did not leave until the program changed. ' . "I always listen to his pro gram," said Billy Giles. "I knew him and I knew his fam ily in Milwaukee. That isn't his real name. I never could pronounce it. We called him Leo. He always could play the piano." WHO'S AVERAGE New York (UPD The so called "average American consumer" is getting harder to define and manufacturers may have to probe his ' envi ronment and the social arid personal forces which direct his life, goals and ambitions, a marketing study points out.

Panels PICKUP 1S "" 1 authorities in the field of hypnosis. Closely related to 'the ques tion of hypnotizing the resis tant subject has been the con troversy over whether a hyp notized person can be made to perform anti-social acts. The beliefs that the hypno tized subject will do nothing against his will and that no one can be hypnotized against his will are almost universal ly accepted by laymen. In fact, it is generally believed that these two "limitations" are effective safeguards against the abuse of hypnosis by entertainers and parlor hypnotists. t Beliefs Change A growing number of ex perts, however, are of the opinion that it is quite pos sible to hypnotize some re sistant subjects and cause them to perform anti-social acts through carefully worded suggestions. Dr. Watkins, in a paper written for the British Jour nal of Medical Hypnotism in the summer of 1951, called for more controlled investigations by psychological and medical scientists in the area. Watkins' concern stems from the experiments which he con ducted in a military psychia tric hospital during World War II and also from the oc casional reports of unscrupu lous hypnotists who have abused their ability to hypno tize by taking advantage of their subjects. A news item carried by the Associated Press in 1948 re ported the conviction of a man on the charge that rape was committed upon a woman placed in hypnosis against her will. ' Watkins says in his article that: Issue at Stake "We cannot continue to re port complacently that it is impossible to initiate hypnosis against a subject's will or to induce criminal or immoral behavior when much evidence to the contrary is available. An important legal issue is at stake," he declares. It is Watkins' opinion that "It is more significant if some investigators are able to in duce this phenomenon than it is that others were unsuccess ful in their attempts. The problem is not whether every body can be placed in trance against his will but whether anybody or any percentage of subjects can be so hypno tized." The potentials of hypnosis are not yet fully understood. Recent research in hypnosis has startling implications for the use of hypnosis in psycho logical warfare. Only the characteristics of the trance can be described; even the ex perts admit that they do not know what the trance really is. These experts believe that research is the only way to learn more about the myster ious phenomenon which is so valuable and yet so dangerous. Laws have been proposed which would be directed at the prevention of the non- serious use of phynosis. There is such a law in Oregon but members of the medical pro fession desire a stronger en actment which would make it illegal for anyone outside the medical professions to use hypnosis. Education is Step Educating .the public about the phenomenon is another Blue Bird Troop Visits Newspaper Members of the St. Mary's Blue Bird group toured the Mail Tribune plant and offices Monday afternoon.

B Wednesday, May 27, 19S9 step which many feel is es sential in assuring hypnosis a permanent place in accepted medical methodology. An un derstanding of hypnosis by the general public would make clear the reasons for desiring adequate legislation. Understanding the purpose of the law is essential " to its enactment. In hypnosis, man has dis covered a therapeutic aid of infinite value - the potentials of which are not yet fully known. If that therapy is to have a permanent place in medical science it must be pro- more car, Longer wheelbase. Bigger car.

It means that circu lation so identified is measured according to the rules and standards of the Audit Bukeau of Circulations The :A.B.C. is a cooperative and non-profit association of 3,450 publishers, advertisers and advertising agencies. Organized in 1914, these buyers and sellers of advertising brought order out of advertising chaos by setting up standards for paid circulation and establishing rules and methods for measuring, auditing and report ing circulations. Therefore, the work of the A.B.C., of which this newspaper is proud to fr.C giPOgTS - tected through realistic evalu ation of all aspects of the phenomenon. Out of ancient magic has come not ' a panacea, but a tool which can work for the benefit of thousands of people. Laws, public education and courses in hypnosis in modern medical and dental schools (such as those offered by the University of Oregon Medical School), will provide the basis for a secure future for hypno sis. If these steps are not tak en, hypnosis may fade once more into the background, as a device of entertainers and quacks. 1 Tomorrow: The Need for a Concrete Recognition Policy. money on regular gas.
