Watkins 6 MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford', Or. B Wednesday, Aug. 1 9, 1 959 Are You Supporting Powder-Post Beetles? Maybe you are supplying food and shelter to a group of "powder-post" beetles without knowing it; they 'may be in your furniture, in your floors or even in the picture frames. They just love to perforate the handles of shovels, hoes, rakes, or any wooden-handled garden tools. The neat little holes that you may find in the hardwood rocking chair, baseboards, or in the back of the piano, are pretty conclusive evidence that they have got their little beaks into your woodwork. Because they delight to work in posts is how they got their name "powde r-post" beetles. They've been around for a long time but not one noticed them too much for they confined their boring ac tivities to the trees of the forests. But since the forests have all been pretty well thinned out, they have trans ferred their attentions to fur niture, baseboards and hard wood floors. Only Old Wood Powder-post beetles have no gastronomical interest in new wood; they want it well sea soned and are never present until the. wood is at least a year old; and they also de mand that it be dry. The adult insect lays her eggs in the pores of sapwood, provided it is dry, so that when the little demons hatch out they can begin chewing on the delicious wood without Easy TV Slippers Whip up gay TV slippers of corduroy, cotton, velveteen with rickrack 'n cross -stitch trim.

These larvae chew their way by cutting ir regular galleries inside the wood, and packing the saw dust behind them in the tun nel as they progress. They spend several months in the larvae stage and eventually grow into adult beetles. When full grown they get the urge to venture out into the great, wide world, and to accomplish this they stop gnawing and drill a hole to the outside; a hole about as large around as a kitchen match stem. Through this hole they escape, and launch them selves on their mating flight. When they return they are again ready to enter the wood to lay another batch of eggs. Of course they have no senti mental attachment for the "old home"; they hunt up a new rocking chair, or a tasty base board, and start operations in a new location. Ttll-Tal Holes . It is these tiny shot-holes, or exits, that give them away, and reveal where they have been working. Mostly, the poor guy who owns the furni ture, or the baseboard, or hardwood floor, never suspect ed their presence until he ac cidentally found the holes. By that time much, damage has usually been done. Another pretty good indica tion that you may have un- Seeing Declared Often Deceiving Washington - (Science Serv ice) Seeing is not always be lieving; it is often deceiving. This is vividly demonstrated in the latest monthly expe rimental unit Things of Sci ence, issued here by Science Service. The current kit, which deals with optical illusions, consists of six specimens and an explanatory leaflet. The specimens include cutouts of misleading drawings, twin figures, shifting designs, a bird and cage, a distorted room and an illusion window. In 21 detailed experiments the experimenter is shown how a person often does not see things exactly as they are or as they are related to each other. Only part of what is perceived comes through the senses from the object. The rest is "read into" perception by. the mind, based on previ ous experience. The optical illusion unit, No. 224, is available for 75 cents each or three for $1.50 by writing to Things of Science, Science Service, J719 N st., N. W., Washing ton 6, D. C. Membership in Things of Science is available at $5 for 12 monthly units. Two Bound Over to Grand Jury in Court Two men, one of Medford and one from Grants- Pass, were bound over to 4he grand jury yesterday in district court on charges of rape. Lymon Stubbs, 21, of North Pacific highway, Medford, and John Corbell, 19, Grants Pass, are being held in the county jail on $1,500 bait. The two youths are charged with raping two Medford girls under 18 years of age. They were arrested Saturday night at a local dance hall by sher iff's deputies. welcome "boarders" is the presence of tiny piles of soft, very fine, powder-like materi al, that looks a little like flour, heaped up on top of the baseboards, or below infected furniture. Also you better look at the handles of your garden tools; see if you can find the little shot-holes, peppered in the wood; if you do, better not lean too heavy on the handle, for the chances are the "powder-post" beetles have been working while you were rest ing.

Emotions Said To Play Major Role in Likes and Dislikes Washignton (Science Serv ice) Your, skin betrays your prejudice. Emotion plays an import ant role in a person's likes and dislikes and can be mea sured physically, Dr. Joseph B. Cooper of San Jose Col lege (Calif.) reports. Dr. ' Cooper has shown this emotional response when a prejudice is challenged in what he describes as the first physiological measurement of the relation between emotion and prejudice. He reports his findings in the journal Science. Physiological Changes Emotion involves many physiological changes that mo bilize the body to meet emer gency,, the psychologist ex plains. He measurer one of these changes while the sub ect listened to statements that neither "panned" or praised groups he had already evalu ated as "liked intensely" or disliked intensely." The gal vanic skin response, in which electrical changes are record ed by electrodes attached to a person's palms, was the technique used. Analysis of the responses of the college students tested showed a further distinction between positive and negative prejudices. The students dis played more emotion when complimentary state ments were made about disliked groups tan with complimen tary statements about liked groups. The responses were compared in both cases with complimentary state ments about groups to which the student expressed "neutral ity." Procedure Reversed In another test the proce dure of having the student rank ethnic and national groups and then measuring his emotional response was re versed. First the student lis tened while complimentary statements were made about nine of these groups. His gal vanic skin response was mea sured. On the basis of the stu dent's physical reactions, the researchers determined which group was most liked and which least liked. Later, the student ranked the nine groups in a paired comparison test; he circled the name of the one group which he preferred in each pair. Each group name, such as Austrians, Jews, Mexicans Recruiting Office Open Monday Night Chief Murray Emmerich of the Navy recruiting service announced today that the Navy recruiting office in the post office building will re main open Monday until 9 p.m., beginning Aug. 24. Office hours during the week will remain the same as before: 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Friday and 9 a.m. to noon on Saturday. Emmerich said also that vacancies still exist for quali fied men in the Navy's high school graduate program. y There are more than 6,000 public libraries in the U.S. Nearly a score of U.S. towns are named El Dorado. Experimental Pain, Natural Pain Vary Washington -Science Serv ice) Experimental pain is very different from "natural" pain and true anxiety or fear may be the difference. Some long - term studies have shown that persons with either acute or chronic pain respond in a "remarkably precise quantitative fashion to a given dose of a given narcotic." However, this is not true in experimentally 'How' of Address System Eliminated Murray Hill, N.J. -(Science Service)- The "howl" of pub lic address systems "caused by heating up of the amplifiers or changing of position by the speaker can be minimized by a new electronic method, Bell Telephone Laboratories re ports here. By automatically compensating for variations in amplification with a fre quency shift modulator, the device permits a two-fold in crease in the loudness of the P.A. system without incurring instability, Bell Laboratories says. caused pain, Dr. Henry K. Beecher of the Massachusetts General hospital, Boston, re ports. In evaluating the effects of narcotics or analgesic drugs that relieve pain, using hu mans in experimental pain situations presents problems. It is impossible to make even cautious generalizations about pain caused by illness or sur gery, for instance, based on experimental pain. Dr. Beecher suggests, how ever, that experimental pain produced slowly may be use ful in judging pain-relieving drugs. An anxiety factor or fear may thus be introduced similar to the "real life" situ ation, he concludes in the journal Science.

As predicted, Dr. Cooper concluded, there was very close agreement between a student's galvanic skin re sponse and his rating cf the various groups. His skin actually did reflect his prejudices.
