Hare Citato f5 Br. Alvares The Painfulnesc of Indecision Every so often I see a wom an who is in a nervous break down. And when I ask her husband and sisters how she happened to get that way, they tell me she has an awful time making a de cision. If she g o e s to a store to buy a dress, or a hat, she has a most distressing she has a most distressing time deciding on one, and when she does buy it, she takes it back next day. Then she worries for days over what she did. I always point out to these women that a business execu tive has to be making impor tant decisions all day: usually he cannot change his mind, and actualy, he hasn't the time. He cannot go back on his word, and he cannot spend hours wondering if he did the right thing. As I say to the indecisive women, "Why can't you learn to make up your mind? Your husband had to learn the trick." Often, also, I pointed out that so many of a woman's decisions are un important; if one of them should be unwise, no tragedy will follow. The only tragedy is for' a woman not to make any decision at all; either good or bad. I am reminded of what one of the greatest of the court physicians of the Middle Ages once wrote. Maimonides said, "The risk of a wrong decision is preferable to the terror of indecision." Many a time the able hus band of a miserable, indecis- Thor Missile On Test Flight Cape Canaveral, Fla. (DPD A gleaming Thor ballistic missile roared off today on another "eye in the sky" flight that could aid space projects of both the present and future. r . The blunt nose cone of the stubby rocket contained a 16 mm. -movie camera to photo graph separation of the cone from the body of the rocket, informed sources said. It was the. fourth camera-carrying Thor in a current test series. The Air Force said a team of ships and planes in the An tigua Island area 1,500 miles south of here recovered the data one hour and 22 minutes after the Thor blasted off on its 10,000 mile an hour flight. The test contrasted sharply with the abbreviated flight Wednesday" night of an Army Jupiter missile. Both the Air Force Thor and the Army-developed Jupiter have a maxi mum range of 1,700 miles, but the Jupiter's successful flight of only 350 miles was designed to show its accur acy at minimum range. Trio Held in Cuba Assassination Try Havana - (UPD - Police today were holding three men for the attempted assassination of Lt. Rluardo Aulet, commander of the security guard at the presidential palace. According to authorities, the three fired at Aulet from an automobile as he was leav ing a hospital in suburban Vedado early Wednesday. Au let, who was not hit, returned the fire and his attackers sped away, sideswiping a parked car as they did. Police later spotted the damaged car and arrested the three men. 707 Jetliner Loses Wingflap Section Las Vegas, Nev. (UPD A Continental Airlines Boeing 707 jetliner lost an eight-foot section of a wing flap Wed nesday while taking off on a training flight, but landed safely in Los Angeles. Only five crewmen were aboard the craft, being put through a shakedown flight. Observers here saw the large winglap section drop from the plane and immediately noti fied the pilot. He continued the flight, however, and land ed without incident at Los An geles International Airport.

But then, whot does she do? When I tell what obviously ought to be done, she wants to argue with me at length about it!" Death Can Be Welcomed Because of one of my hob bies has always been archae ology, recently I was reading some poetry written in Egypt a few thousand years ago. Imagine my interest when I found the . poet saying, what so many old people are writ ing me today-that death can be a welcome guest to the old man or woman who is tired out and. worn down with months or years of suffering. As the poet said, f "Death is before me today Like the recovery of a sick man Like going forth after sickness."

MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, Or. Thursday, Aug. 27, 19S9 7 English Channel Swim Race Won By Argentinian Dover, England -(UPD- Ar gentine swimmer Alfredo Camarero won the interna tional cross-channel race to day, making the gruelling 22 mile swim across the choppy English Channel in 11 hours, 45 minutes and 26 seconds. The race was marred by a chaotic start and fears for a time that one of the swim mers had lost his life. The missing swimmer, Pri mo Ferreira of Portugal, turned up safe and sound in a French hotel. He had turned around and swum back to Calais, after his escort boat lost track of him two hours after the pre-dawn start in the race from Cape Gris Nez, France. Foul-Up In Boats Sixteen of the 38 registered swimmers failed even to get started because of a foul-up in escort boat arrangements and the belief the condition of the channel today made their chances hopeless. Camarero's victory in the cross-channel race, organized by promoter Billy Butlin, brought him the top prize of $1,400. Choppy seas, the mixup in escort arrangements, and the cold of the early morning darkness combined to make a mess of the annual race. Rough waters capsized sev eral escort vessels. Others simply did not turn up. Many swimmers couldn't find their boats and abandoned the race. Some swimmers took one look at the channel and gave up. Six of the 22 swimmers who did get off the French beach gave up soon after the start. Americans Well Up Two of the American en tries in the annual race, Greta Anderson and Myra Thomp son, both of Long Beach, Calif., were reported unoffi cially to be well up with the leaders. Paul Herron, 38, Sacramento, Calif., was forced to drop out half way across because of cramps. Both Herron and Miss An derson said before the race started that they hoped to try the round trip but the water appeared too rough for such an unprecedented attempt. The swimmers, including five women, were competing for prizes ranging from $140 to $1,400. NARROW ANGLE Cambride, Mass.-flJPD-Back in 1922, a movie company of fered Harvard and Yale $25, 000 for exclusive rights to their football game that year. The offer was rejected.

Quotes From the News By United Press International Bonn, Germany-President Eisenhower, addressing a wel coming crowd at the Bonn airport as he arrived to begin his round of talks with European leaders: "The American people stand by your side in assuring that the loyal free people of free Berlin will, like yourselves, continue always to enjoy thai great privilege." ' Moscow-Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev, in a letter to West German Chancellor Konrad Adenauer, warning that East-West war would be "tantamount to suicide" and dis cussing the future Eisenhower-Khrushchev meetings: "It may be that we are on the eve of an historic turn in the policy of the two blocs-from further isolation to gradual rapprochement and adjustment of the outstanding issues to ensure peaceful coexistence of all states." Los Angeles-Royal Air Force Wing Commander John L. R. Bowman, a British space scientist, discussing the condi tions under which space pioneers might work: "It might be desirable to let the space man have a martini a day on his off hours."
