Watkins - (Register and Tribune syndicate-1961) Kennedy Urged To Wear His Hat Washington - (UPD - The president of the hatmakers union has told President Ken nedy,' a chronic hat - holder, that "a hat on the head is worth two in the hand." Alex Rose, head of the Unit ed Hatters, Cap and Millinery Workers' International Union (AFL-CIO), referred to the fact that Kennedy often car ries his hat instead of wear ing it. Rose complimented the president Thursday on being seen more and 'more with a hat but implied he would be happier if Kennedy would wear it instead of carrying it. Rose, after visiting with Kennedy, said the president's brother, Atty. Gen. Robert F. Kennedy, "needs a little edu cation." The attorney general wears a hat even less than the president.

Outside the weather had chill ed. The little air currents that seeped in through the open ings around the water pipes felt raw and uncomfortable. These openings were handy. They offered easy . entrance and exits for Mr. and Mrs. Roach; sort of an escape hatch. There were many places to hide. The floor under the sink was littered with soap boxes, bottles, cans and papers. The condensation on the water pipes and sink drain kept the air pleasantly moist. The Roach family loved it. To them it was home. Mrs. Roach awakened and looked around in the damp darkness for her husband who was half hidden under a soap wrapper; he was munching on a piece of paper. "Poor dear," she thought, "how he loves the glue on the can labels." She liked it too.. During the previous night she was nearly caught while eating at the back of the cook book on the sink platform. The ' family came home sud denly and turned on the light. As the light flooded the room, Mrs. Roach scurried for, cov er. The folded paper the housewife wielded missed the roach by . Inches. The wind from the blow knocked Mrs. Roach into the safety of the cupboard. The narrow escape slowed her down. She hid under the sink for a day and a night, in her favorite crevice back of the silverware drawer. . There it happened, sudden ly and crushingly. The house wife slammed the drawer and the back edge jammed Mrs. Roach against the board and held her. In silence she strug gled, but the drawer was heavy. She was helpless. Shortly her sensitive ears heard the soft "swish, swish" of hurrying feet. In the dim light she saw an ant come to a full stop in front of her. The little insect stood there for some little time, an inch away from her wildly waving an tenna. Then the ant ran over the roach, viewed it from all sides and then hastened away. Instinctively, Mrs. Roach knew that here was the ene my; knew the ever hungry ants would soon descend on her in force. Once they start ed, they would -tear her to pieces, bit by bit; She experienced a fear, in stinctive to all her kind. They were always waiting, always watching, always ready. She didn't know what fear was, but she responded to it. It was always vague, but always present. The pressure of the silver ware drawer was nothing now. It was forgotten in the face of this greater danger, . They all came-the ants-in ordered ranks, each with a de termined purpose. In the dark ness under the sink, where the sink drain and the water pipes twisted stiffly, the final drama took place. Up above her, in the sink, a steady procession of water- drops plunked with measured rhythm, like the tramp of marching feet of a firing squad or the tread of an exe cutioner. Laborifes Suffer Voting Setbacks London - (UPD - The dissen sion torn Labor party suffered serious reverses in the first day of county council elec tions throughout Britain, un official returns showed today, One of the hardest blows, according to returns compiled by the Conservative party's central office in London, was loss of control of the council in the important county of Middlesex, just outside of London. The returns from the 27 counties which balloted Thurs day showed a definite swing away from the Labor party to Prime Minister Harold Mac- millan's Conservatives. A total of 62 counties will elect new councils during the weeklone balloting. The coun ties are roughly equivalent to American states and are gov erned by councils with a chair man as head instead of governor. 119 Pints of Blood Collected at SC Shady Cove-A total of 119 pints of blood, 19 more than the quota, was donated during the visit of the Red Cross Bloodmobile Wednesday in Shady Cove. Mrs. Eva Seggessenman, Red Cross blood program chair man for northern JacKson county, reported that it was the highest amount donated to date for any single visit of the Bloodmobile. A total of 143 persons volunteered that day, she said. Assisting Mrs. Seggessen man as area chairmen were Mrs. Bruce Pingle, Butte Falls; Mrs. Meryle McGraw, Eagle Point-Reese creek; Mrs. Gene House, Shady Cove; Mrs. i. R. Wagler, Trail; Mrs. Oscar Hanson, Elk creek; Mrs. Grace Larson, Prospect-Union Creek area. i Members of the Veterans of Foreign Wars auxiliary assist ed in the kitchen during the visit.
