Nixon Urged To Seek Presidency Los Angeles - (UPD - Vice President Richard M. Nixon has been urged to run for president next year by the Re publican California Central Committee. The group unanimously passed a resolution Sunday calling for Nixon's candidacy. Some 300 delegates to the meeting gave a two - minute standing ovation to the resolu tion. , Nixon was described in the resolution as "The best trained man in history for the presi dency. As vice president for two terms, he has demon strated particularly his out standing experience and quali fications in matters of domes tic policy and foreign rela tions." ' The state committee wound up its two-day meeting Sun day devoted to mapping stra tegy for the I960 election. DOCTORS MAKE PLEA Constance, Germany - (DPI) -More than 1,000 doctors and scientists from all' parts of the world called Sunday for stricter measures against the poisoning of the atmosphere by radioactivity and the waste products of industrial civili zation. The f appeal was issued at the close of the fifth inter national convention on living matters and nutrition here. out of five Americans are of Conservation The control of body weight is based on the law of conser vation of energy: energy can neither be created nor de stroyed, but it can change from one form to another. ; The body neither loses nor gains when the intake of food equals the Dody's need for energy. Overweight means an excess of 10 per cent to 20 per cent in body weight. When the excess weight is more than 20 per cent, the condition is referred to as obesity. A person weighing 20 per cent or more below the desirable weight is consid ered underweight. Overweight occurs when a person takes in more food (or energy) than his body needs. The pounds of excess body weight are directly related to the amount of extra food eat en. For example, you may gain 11 pounds of body fat in a year if you drink just one bottle of a soft drink (about 105 calories) each day beyond the amount of calories your body needs. This Js not only true for overweight people but for all, including chil dren.. . .-.w. .ji .vv:k-w -Energy Value Measured Calories are used to meas ure the energy value of food. As used in these articles, the word calorie is the large calo rie, often written in technical publications with a capital C. This is the amount of energy as heat that raises one kilo gram of water one degree centigrade. There is also the small calorie which is 11000 as large raising one gram of water one degree centigrade. But the calorie that people talk about in reducing is the large calorie. Dr. Ercel S. Eppright of Iowa State college studied about 1,200 Iowa school chil dren and found 11 per cent of the boys and 17 per cent of the girl's very heavy or obese Among 325 college fresh men examined at the Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art, Dr. Char lotte M. Young of Cornell university found that about 23 per cent of the men and al most 36 per cent of the wom en were overweight. Exercise Each Day It is unrealistic to suggest CLUB ' NEWS MYH club The first meeting of the MYH 4-H club was held Oc tober 10 at the home of their leader, Phyllis Mitchel.

The side view is highlighted by nine small vertical louvres in body color and edged in chrome below the tail fin. The Sixty Special features a fabric covered top that matches body color. Declared that a man who is 10 pounds overweight can lose weight by exercise alone, because it would tak exercise of eight hours a day for almost 22 days to lose 10 pounds of body fat. On the other hand, he could have prevented the accumulation of the 10 pounds of weight by a small amount of exercise each day. For in stance, 30 minutes of heavy work each day will corre spond to about 10 pounds a year. In trying to help people deal with the problem of overweight, the Department of Agriculture has prepared many pamphlets that you can get by sending a request (a postal card will do) to the Of fice of Information, Depart ment of Agriculture, Wash ington 25, D.C., but try to make your request as specific as possible. Among the avail able publications are: L 424, "Food for Fitness -A Daily Food Guide"; GS 1, "Nutri-tion-Up-to-Date, Up to You"; G 5, "Food for the Family with Young Children"; G 13, "Food for Families with School Children"; and G 17, "Food Guide for Older Folks."

"I literally spent all my time watching that grate for fear they'd cross it. Then we switched to elec tric heat. Since then my mind has been so free that I have time for lots of things I couldn't do before." Electric heat also saves money, the Coulsons have found.

Can Compel Persons to Specifically Perform Contracts In New Jersey, over fifty years ago, a farmer entered a contract with a cannery in which he promised to sell to the cannery all of the toma toes grown that year on a cer tain defined acreage. As the time approached for the tomatoes to be delivered, the farmer indicated that he was going to breach his con tract and sell the tomatoes o someone else. Unable to per suade the farmer to perform his contract, the cannery brought suit to compel him to perform. It ""as pointed out that preparations had been made for this season's pack. The cannery had obtained all the necessary supplies, equip ment and personnel to do the work. , Responsibility Admitted The farmer argued that to matoes could be purchased On the open market and that the cannery would not be com pletely without tomatoes. He admitted he would be respon sible to the cannery in money damages if his breach caused it to incur damages. This be ing true, the farmer contend ed, the cannery was not en titled to compel him specifi cally to perform his contract. The court decided in favor of the cannery, pointing that it could not be sure of being able to purchase toma toes of the same quality and in necessary quantities to meet the requirements of the plant during the six weeks canning season. The court felt that the very existence of the contract to purchase tomatoes indicated the r e c e s s i t y of making definite arrangements lor a supply of tomatoes prior to the actual time of need. v , . . .

TABLE ROCK Pear Picking By R. E. NEALON Table Rock -Pear picking was finished Monday at the, Modoc orchard, and the pick ers, mostly transients coming from as far north as the state of Washington and south to Arizona, went their many ways, some for home, and some for other jobs. The The court agreed thatj the defendant, the farmer, would be liable in damages to -the plaintiff, the cnnery, i f t h e cannery chose to seek dam ages. However, if -016 cannery sought specific performance, as it did, th .... court felt it should be entitled to this re lief because the remedy at law for damages was in ade quate. 'Equitable Remedy' This case illustrates a type of remedy known as an "Eq uitable Remedy." Historically such remedies were granted only by a court of Equity. Today,- for the most part, the same court administers "legal"- and "equitable" reme dies. Before a person is enti tled to this specific relief, ra ther" than the usual legal re lief of damages, he must show that his legal remedy is not as efficient to the ends of justice as the equitable rem edy. Legal remedy is there fore inadequate. There are many cases of the type used here as an illus tration. They are generally in agreement with this New Jer sey decision. No doubt this would be the result in Ore gon.

Completed With the completion of pear picking, and digging of pota toes on the J. L. Nealon farm, the harvesting of crops in this district is ntaring completion, excepting some apples and an acreage of field corn on the Table Top ranch. The past season has been a hectic one for the growing of crops with the dry hot days, and winds, irrigation pumps were kept almost in continu ous operation to keep crops and pastures from drying out. On account of this, costs of growing crops, locally, we would estimate, increased al most 50 per cent. However, this was offset to some extent by ideal weather for harvest ing with little if any, crop spoilage on account of wot weather. The Dale Shultz family, who have been staying at the Ray Doran home for some time, have moved to Sams Valley, and are living in a house at the north end of the big irrigation reservoir, for merly the Virgil Gribble home. Mr. and Mrs. J. S. Richard son returned recently from Portland, where they spent several days visiting with son Donald and family, and Mrs. Richardson underwent an annual checkup at a clinic.

Some think irrigation might be a factor, while others be lieve it may be the result of using too much highly potent fertilizer, but it seems that neither of these can be proved to a certainty. Mr. and Mrs. D. D. Randall of Medford were Sunday visi tors at the local Sunday school, as also were Mrs. Mc Callister and children of the Meadows. : . , Mr. and Mrs. George Haines of Lancaster, Calif., were Sunday visitors here.

At the last meeting of the Sams Valley Grange, a mes sage was received from Charley Hoover telling S.V. Grangers to be on the alert and attend the county zoning committee meetings, or they might wake up some day and find they would have to get a permit to build, to put up a building as small as a chick sales on their own property. Commissioner Ralph James was present and stated it wasn't that bad, but there were some objectionable, fea tures in it that would have to be ironed out before he would favor it.
