Si Try and Stop Me By BENNETT CERF T7UGENE REITMAN, sugar refining company executive, J-J has returned with his wife from a round-the-world cruise. "It was difficult," he admits, "to get my mind off the sugar business. Take i-gypt, for example. I wanted to hire a camel to ride around the Pyra mids and Sphinx. So I asked a camel dealer, "How much will the camel cost me for the afternoon? '"That all depends, answered the dealer. 'Do you want one lump or two?'" Variations on s theme: One pastor to another: "Read any Good Books lately?" One bird to another: "Bred any good rooks lately?" F.B.I, man to D.A.: "Booked any good Reds lately?" One woman hater to another: "Fled any good looks lately?" One jail warden to another: "Fed any good crooks lately?" O 1961, by Bennett Cerf. Diitrltated by King Feature Syndicate Equator Found to Be Egg-Shaped Columbus, Ohio, (Science Service)-The earth's equator is egg-shaped, not circular, an astronomer has found. Imre G. Izsak, astronomer at the Smithsonian Astro- physical Observatory, Cam bridge, Mass., used high pre cision photographs taken by the Bake r-N u n n satellite tracking cameras to discover that the equator is elliptical. He determined the equa torial diameter is about 1,400 feet longer from a point in the Atlantic just off Ihe east ern tip of Brazil across to a point near the Admiralty Is lands above eastern Australia than the diameter from a point on the equator below Southern California across to a point below Iran. Heart Attacks Show Relation to Salary Chicago - (Science Service) - The lower the salary, the more likely the worker is to have a heart attack. In a three-year study of 653 employees who had their first heart attacks, Drs. Sidney Pell and C. A. D'Alonzo of the E. I. du Pont de Nemours and com pany, found that the attacks occurred least often among highest salary groups. Of the 653, 13 were women.

The need for oceanographic research is continually being echoed by congressional com mittees, the military and scientists. President Kennedy emphasized the need in both his Inaugural address and State of the Union message. Various reasons, both prac tical and scientific, have been given from different quarters on why the United States' scientists should study the ocean depths. Military men point out the vulnerability of the United States to marine attack, whereas scientists stress the ocean's Tich re sources and its effect on weather. Turning to Ocean With the world s population continually mushroom ing, man is now turning to the ocean to harvest its rich food crop. By learning more about the seas around us, the pro ductivity and fertility of the sea may be increased. The military and scientific results are difficult to separ ate because they are so inter related, Jacques Piccard, no ted Swiss scientist, told a Sen ate committee here. Some of the oceanographic data would definitely have military ap plications, he said. He also pointed out that the Russians rate their ocean re search second only to their space program in importance. New Map May Show Moon Landing Areas Cambridge, Mass., (Science Service)-A new lunar map showing where high and low areas are located is ready for the first men who land on the moon. The contour map was pre pared by Dr. Ralph B. Bald win, astrophysicist and vice president of Oliver Machinery company, Grand Rapids, Mich. Baldwin took a series o measures of 696 points on photographs taken with Lick Observatory's 36-inch refrac tor. He then determined the contours of craters as small as one mile in diameter. He estimates the possible error for any single determination of height to be about two fifths of a mile. The map shows several fea tures very clearly. All the great maria (so-called by the ancient Romans because they thought the dark areas of the moon were seas) are low areas. The areas believed by some1 scientists to have been formed by astcroidal impacts were found to be very low. New York-lUPH-Florida oys ter growers produced more than 1.6 million pounds of the delicacy last year. This compares with only 600,000 pounds in 1955. Many north ern oyster farmers arc head ing south to escape Diigni, hurricanes and cold weather I that take their toll on beds. MED ORD, ORE- OBITUARIES EDWARD L. MOON Edward L.
