o o o o o o 8 C MEDFOHD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFOHD, OU THURSDAY, jems . tu$ Small Worlds Around Us By Lynn M. Watkins The 'Hunter'i Paradise' Ha Ceased To Be We have all read about the "hunter's paradise"; the place where game animals hide be hind every bush; game-birds wait in every thicket; or where the number of game Jish you can catch is only lim ited to the number allowed by the game laws. This "hunter's paradise" is a mythical place whoso existence survives only in the Imagination of the ad writer. Like the "happy hunting ground" of the early Ameri can Indian, the so-called "hunter's paradise" has ceased to be, but we are apt to fall for the glaring accounts location, still hoping i place can still be Make his day as special as he is with N NORCROSS Y) 7I SlfMCTnTOIl. ' I of its such found. Wrong Assumption Some of us see a picture in a magazine or newspaper, of a group of happy hunters with a full bag of game, and we immediately assume the place where they hunted is overrun with game. We see a picture of a rattlesnake and we be lieve the countryside is swarming with snakes. We forget that in most sec tions the killing ot a rattle snake is big news, so there is an account of it in the local papers. But it doesn't mean the area is infested with snakes. It simply means it is now unusual; unusual that a rattlesnake could survive, right in the middle of an in dustrial area. Just because one gunner bagged his limit of ducks, or squirrels or anything else does not mean there is a sur plus of those animals. Just because a man saw two part ridges in the road doesn't mean there are millions of the birds just waiting for the gun. ncr to come along. If he got his limit in a legal way, it probably only means he was very lucky, or happened to strike an area where he could clean out a flock or a covey, If you are lucky enough to have a small covey of quail n your back yard, it is no in dication the vicinity is clutter ed up with quail. There's An End There are still some of us stupid enough to think we are still in possession of a "howl ing wilderness" somewhere. But the howling wilderness has just about uttered its last, New Spanish Teaching Method Being Developed Los Angeles-tScicnce Serv ice) - A poster and film strip method of teaching Spanish is being developed at the Uni versity of California, Los An geles, under a $132,000 Fed eral grant, Making use of one of the largest grants ever given to an individual under terms of the National Defense Educa tion Act, Dr. William E. Bull, professor of Spanish, is de veloping 500 poster-size draw ings to be used as aids in teaching Spanish. When completed In about a year, the pictures, which also will be available in film strip form, will be licensed by the U.S. Department of Education for production and made available to elementary and secondary schools and to col leges. Explanatory material for use by teachers is also being prepared. Based on a long-term, orig inal study by Dr. Bull, the picture series allows the stu dent to discover how the Spanish -speaking native or ganizes his world in terms of linguistics. The picture series hits hard at the usual Spanish language "trouble spots" by allowing the student to make gram matical choices, not by use of confusing rules, but by ob serving correct usage In real life situations. "We present the student with a set of situations iden tical to lat which the Spanish-speaking native learns to react to as a child," Dr. Bull said. '. - h . 'kI:: r4 HOUSE MOVED, TREES STAY - In the for ested town of Carmel, Calif., where trees are sacrosanct, a city coucilman made a solomon-like decision on how to remove the Arthur F. White home from a lot recently acquired by the town, without cutting down pines and oaks in the way - just by sawing the building in half. Workmen start to cut the residence in two parts, so that each may be eased through the woods and rejoined at a new location across the street. (UPI Telephoto) Analysis of Delegate Strength Shows Kennedy as Favorite feeble squeak; and even the squeak won't be heard for very long. We all fall for this silly in- exhausibility doctrine. Men and nations have been lured into apathy and danger by be lieving there are limitless sup. plies of game animals. It Is a fallacy. There is no such thing as an inexhaustible supply, ex cept maybe ignorance. Take a ball of string some collector has been saving; regardless of its size, even if it be as big as an apartment building, however, there is an end to it, just as surely as there is an end to a day, to a story, or to a life.

SMITH Mail Tribune Washington Correspondent Washington - With about a month to go before the Dem ocrats convene in Los Angeles for the job of picking a poss ible president and vice presi dient, an independent analysis of delegate strength made by the Washington Evening Star shows Sen John F. Ken' nedy to be within 80 votes of clin ching the nomination on the second ballot. Neve rthe less, this anal- A. Rout, smilh the race is still wide open. On the first ballot, as It now looks, Kennedy will have 622V4 votes. This would leave him 138V4 votes shy of the 78 votes required to obtain the nomination. The strength of the other candidates on the first ballot shapes up like this: Sen. Lyn don B. Johnson of Texas, 450; Sen. Stuart Symington of Mis souri, 128; Sen. Hubert Hum phrey of Minnesota, 62 V4; Ad lal Stevenson of Illionis, 39i The remaining 220V4 are split among favorite sons, plus a few delegates whose prefer ences are unknown. According to the Star's analysis, Kennedy can count on a gain on the second bal lot of about 83 delegates who will shift away from support ing favorite sons; and Ken nedy will likely lose possibly 25 voles from states whose delegates were bound to sup port him on the first ballot because he won primary elec tions in their states. This would bring Kennedy to with in 80 votes of the nomination. Not Believed Cinched. Politicians don't think this means Kennedy has the nom ination clinched. They recall he came within 40 votes of winning the vice presidential nomination but lost out in the stretch to Sen. Estcs Kefau ver In 1956. The Kennedy forces, how ever, think if their man comes this close nobody will be able to stop him, that delegates will rush to help put him across and thereby gain some importance by their good timing. Kennedy strength comes from these solid state delega tions: Arizona, 17; Connecti cut, 21; Indiana, 34; Maine, 15; Maryland, 24; Massachu setts, 41; Michigan, 50; New Hampshire, 11; North Dakota, 11; Ohio, 64; Oregon, 17; Rhode Island, 17 and Ver mont, 9. Expects Illinois Delegates In addition, Kennedy fig ures to get 43 of 69 Illinois delegates, on the presumption that he will be endorsed by Chicago Mayor Richard Daley; 100 of the 114 New York votes, because he has been endorsed by most key leaders in New York; and 34 of 81 Pennsylvania delegates; Alabama, 1' 2; Alaska, 3; Col orado, 11; Delaware, Ha waii, 14, Idaho, 3ln; Mon tana, 9; Nebraska, 10; Nevada, 4'4: North Carolina, 4; South Carolina, 2; Utah 6; Washing ton. 13 ij West Virginia. 10; Wisconsin, 20'4; Wyoming, 10. Sen. Johnson's 450 first i ballot votes are expected to come from nearly-solid sup port from these states: Ala bama, 27' a; Arkansas, 27; Georgia, 33; Kentucky, 31; Louisiana, 26; Mississippi, 23; North Carolina, 33; Oklahoma 29; South Carolina, 21; Ten nessee, 33; Texas, 61; Vir ginia, 33; Puerto Rico, 7; and he is expected to have scat tered votes from Alaska, Col orado, Delaware, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Montana. Ne braska, Nevada. New York, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Utah, Washington, West Vir ginia and Wyoming. Sen. Symington's 126 first ballot votes include the Mis souri bloc of 39, plus 20 from Illinois, 22 from Pennsylvania and scattered votes from Alas ka, Colorado, Delaware, Ida ho, Michigan, Montana, Ne braska, Nevada, New York, Utah, Washington, West Vir ginia and Wyoming. Sen. Humphrey's delegates include 31 from Minnesota, 10V4 from Wisconsin, 9 from the District of Columbia plus a few others from the West. Stevenson's 39'4 votes in clude 15 from Pennsylvania, plus scattered delegates from Alaska, Colorado, Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, Nevada, New York, Utah, Washington and West Virginia. The first ballot favorite sons as it now. appears will be holding back the following delegates blocks: 81 from Cal ifornia for Gov. Pat Brown: 29 from Florida for George Samthers; 26 from Iowa for Gov. Herschcl Loveless; 21 from Kansas for Gov. George Docking; and 41 from New Jersey for Gov. Robert Mey ner. 83 More for Kennedy On (lie second go-around, Kennedy is expected to pick up 83 of these voles - 41 from California, 4 from Florida, 13 from Iowa and 25 from New Jersey, But he may lose 25 votes from Indiana, Mary land and Ohio, where dele gates are bound to him only on the first ballot. Much of this presumed strength is subject to change as the days ahead pass, as events and political person alities play upon the prefer ences of delegates, many of whom will be under no iron clad regulation to vote for the man they may now say they prefer. That's what makes it a wide-open race.
