What's wrong with spending more time at home together? Winifred P. I've just heard the awful news that Dad plans to get rid of our car. That means an end to the long Sunday afternoon drives heiised to take us on, and a hard time getting around to places. The worst part is that be ing 14, 1 was looking forward I to getting my learner s li cense and then, a junior driv er's license. Maybe that's one reason for Dad's decision. He's had enough arguments with i my older brother over the I car. Walter's 18 and hogs it ! all he can. I There's nothing to do at I home. And to get away, there's only a bus. j Mr. D. P. We live near New York City in Westches ter County. After a tussle with Manhattan traffic, plus rlrmed ud roads. "I'm ready to turn In my lic ense, as well as my carl , Winnie shouldn't feel it's the end of the world. When ) Walter was a baby we got , along fine without driving. That was during worm war II when gasoline was ration ed. Staying home wasn't bad at all. It should be still bet ter now with Walter, Winnie and our 10-year-old on deck. There are busses and cabs to take us to the subway. Gor Ing earless for a while is worth a try. The Council: From "calam ities" such as losing the car, being snowbound, breaking the TV-receiver come compen- I sations, we hasten to assure Wlnllrea. f rom Deing iurceu to "make do," to get acquaint ed, to improvise, the members of a family can discover hid den resources for mutual en richment. During the big war, as Mr. P. recalls, there was a resur gence of family harmony. You couldn't go places, but you could do things at home. Now with the highways choked and juniors like Walter and Wini fred rarin' to hasten the strangulation, Mr. P's idea for exploring the virtues of home makes sense. There's been enough "apart ness," evidently, In the P. household to make "together ness" a novelty, for a while. If it should pall painfully, there are busses to the sub way and escape. But, meanwhile, there can be dabbles into family fun such as ensemble bike rides, pic nics, hikes and sleigh rides. With a waiting car, one may not think of these possibilities. For stormy days there's pop corn popping, reading aloud by taking turns, even old-time patchwork quilting which is enjoying a renaissance! Try and do these in a traffic jam! One of the most rewarding Sunday activities for a family is music making. If one of the P.'s plays a piano, another can try a recorder, and still an other a harmonica; and lo! they have a combo for a priv ate jam session. Even if Mr. P. weakens and buys a car again, the family may well look back on this period of being "thrown" to gether as the beginning of some treasured family rituals and customs. Then there'll be just as much interest in get ting back home together as there is now, on Winifred's part. In getting away from each other. rl 1h SCTT VvH:iu9FTl kA, r,;' , v , (vV '1.-2 K v i. , $ ,l f 4 Af it . f s -rUtf . . ; STRANDED MOTORISTS Traveler Joe Jennings of., parts of the state much of the highway traffic was stalled Denver, Colo., attempts to push his car from a snowbank as high winds pushed snow into drifts five feet deep dur on U.

Some boys from the fifth grade showed us the experiments. One of them was a motor and how it works. The other was on lights and how they work. A boy in our room had a model steam engine that he showed us, and how steam works to make electricity. In music our student teach er sometimes brings the auto harp in to accompany us when we sing. On Friday we have Tonettes, which Mrs. Van Buskirk directs. Last month a new student teacher came to our room. Her name is Miss Southwick. She teaches all the morning les sons and 'in the afternoon she teaches social studies, music and art. In social studies we have been studying about power. We chose the kind of power we wanted to make a report on and made eight different committees. We had . a . com mittee on human, animal, wind, water, oil, electrical, steam, and atomic power. John Perry made two re ports; one on oil power and the other on sun power. He went to the college library with Miss Southwick to find some material on sun power. The sixth grade class went to the Medford airport recent ly. We were gone all after noon. When we got there we split up Into three groups for the tour. The officers of our room are President Pam Rhodda; Vice President Richard Schweikl; Secretary Caroline Hassell; Treasurer Nancy King; Librarians Nancy James and Ruth Evans; and news paper reporters Olin Ford and Dawn Fitzgerald.

W put on program for Beck's Attorneys Expect Decision To Strengthen Appeal Seattle - (UPD - Attorney's for former Teamsters Union President Dave Beck said Monday's U. S. Supreme Court ruling in the James case should strengthen Beck's ap peal of his conviction on in come tax evasion. U.N. Event Changed To 8 p.m. Today The Oregon United Nations association lecture originally scheduled Wednesday night has been changed to tonight. Guest Lecturer Paul B. Ed wards, United Nations direc tor for the Philippine Islands, Korea, Formosa and Hong Kong, said the change was necessary in order for him to make his flight schedule in returning to his post in the Philippines. Returning from a briefing at UN headquarters in New York, Edwards will speak of his work in that critical area of the Far East. During World War II, Ed wards served as a Red Cross director in England. After hos tilities ended, he went to work for the United Nations in Czechoslovakia, and later worked with Displaced Per sons in Germany, Gaza and Pakistan.

Science Fair Set At Howard School A science fair will be held In the multi-purpose room of Howard school starting to morrow and continuing through next Monday, Princi pal Harold Boner has an nounced. Student science activities of all grades will be displayed. The fair is a culmination of the science program carried out in each grade during the year, he noted. Originality has been the central theme for each stu dent in selecting his project for the fair. Parents and oth er interested persons are in vited to view the exhibits. The Supreme Court over ruled a 1946 decision that em bezzled money cannot be held subject to federal income tax. But at the same time the high court reversed the tax evasion conviction of Eugene C. James, Chicago labor offi cial found to have embezzled more than $378,000 from his union an dan insurance com pany with which the union did business. Opinion by Warren The basU for overruling Ihp conviction was stated in the opinion written by Chief Jus tice Earl Warren who sairl James could not be held to have acted wilfully" so long as the law contained "t h e gloss placed upon it" by the court's 1946 decision. Beck's conviction, for which he drew a sentence of five years and a $160,000 fine in 1959, currently is before the Ninth U. S. Circuit Court of appeals in San Francisco. Charles Burdell, Beck's chief attorney, said the Beck case and James case have much in common and in his opinion the courts would have to look at the "wilful" ele ment in th eBeck case. B.ntfil-of.Us. Theory ' In its trial of Beck, the gov ernment approached it from the benef it-of-use theory, hold ing that regardless of how Beck got his money, he had it, used it, received benefits or income from it and evaded federal income taxes. Beck's attorneys did not say that the former Teamsters boss had embezzled union funds. They placed heavy emphasis on the argument that the government could not convict Beck with out showing that he knew a tax obligation was owing and that he wilfully attempted to evade it.

Scouf News Little Influence Seen in SEC Probe Of Stock Exchange New York-IOTD-Wall Street agreed todny that the Securi ties and Exchange Commis sion's plans for an investiga tion of American Stock Ex change operations would have no long-term influence on stock prices. But most of the experts agreed the investigation -expected to be the broadest and deepest into a stock exchange operation since the .years fol lowing the market crash of 1929-would have some effect on some issues. They differed in the degree to which it would be felt. Officials of the American Exchange said they welcomed the investigation and they felt "unwarranted inferences" had been made in some quarters as a result of action taken by the SEC against a fathcr-and-son team of stock specialists who were expelled from the exchange May 4. But it was accepted without question that in stock trad ing circles, the American Ex change had been drawing un usual attention recently from investors. Last Friday, the American Exchange for one of the few times in its history topped the "big board," the New York Stock Exchange, in the vol ume of. shares traded-5,430 000 against 4,843,330 for the NYSE. On the preceding day, it hit 4,840,000. They were the biggest volume days since Oct. 29, 1929. That was the year that most stock traders don't like to mention. It was the year that the market crashed with a thud felt round the world. Richard Whitney, a five-times president of the New York Stock Exchange went to jail nine years later as a result of the investigations which fol lowed the crash. More importantly for the public, from those same inves tigations was born the SEC, wnicn announced its new in quiry Monday at the. close of trading for the day. The SEC through its en abling legislation set up what were regarded as strong safe guards for the investing pub lie, and one thing investiga tors in the current inquiry seemed sure to aim for was an answer to the obvious ques tion: How could such manipu lations as are charged to the fatlier-and son team of Gerald A. and Gerald F. Re corns about with the SEC regula tions such as they are? The SEC ordered the Res expelled from the exchange 10 days ago and revoked the registration of their firm, Re, Re & Sagarese. The SEC in vestigators accused the Res A 13 of rigging nine stocks which resulted in a loss of millions of dollars to unsuspecting in vestors. , . The exchange suspended the Res when the investiga tion began. The SEC penalties were the most severe it can impose. Dinosaurs Said To Have Had, Rheumatic Attacks Troop 91 Boy Scouts of Troop 91. Tiller planned to spend last week end at Little Fish lake repairing and conditioning boats for the summer season. ; The boats were built and transported into the lake by Troop 91 as a public service project. Scouts have asked those using the boats to take care of them. Anyone may use the boats for two-hour per iod per person. Little . Fish lake is a 90- acre high altitude lake with excellent fishing for those who do not mind walking or packing in. According to a forest service report, the lake was stocked with cutthroat trout as early as 1934. Re cent studies show the fish population to be about equal ly divided between rainbow and brook trout. Fish lake is at the junction of five trails; the nearest ac cess to an existing road is three miles. Troop 105 Scouts of Troop 105, spon sored by Jefferson School Parent - Teacher association, held a parents night and court of honor recently. The troop presented the second class award to Steven McCallister; first class awards to Royal Johnson, Larry Young, and Gene Taylor.

Glenn Young presided as chairman of the court. Pete Gregory, Carle Guenther and Eugene Ingram were mem bers. Committeeman Russell Johnson presented plans for the 50-mile hike, which will be In the Seven Lakes basin area this summer. Scout master Dick Mclum showed slides of the troop activities of the last year. Institutional representative Frank Taylor presented to the troop the new charter for the coming year. Mr. and Mrs. Frank Taylor served refresh ments after the meeting. Who Says You Won't Get POLIO? Polio struck last summer ... and the lummer before . . . and it can strike igain this summer. There ii no reason why you can't get it-unless you are immunized with vaccine shots. The roups who appear to be particularly suscept ible are young parents and babies.' And now is the time to do something about it. It only takes minutes for Polio protection. Call your physician or local health department.

London IUPI Not that it's much consolation, but that rheumatic twinge you occa sionally get may well be the oldest pain of all time. Scientists probing the ori gin of the disease, they call themselves palaeopathologists, have found evidence that di nosaurs suffered rheumatic attacks millions of years ago. They have also tagged tu berculosis as a chief contender- for the dubious honor of being the first major malady ever to sweep mankind. Evidence in Bones The dinosaurs left behind in their bones the evidence that even as big as they were - and some were 60 and 70 feet long - they were not im mune to rheumatic disorders of the type that still wracks civilized man. Two reports published on the history of diseases under line the fact that this has been a world of pain and Buffering almost from the very begin ning of vertebrate (backbone) life. . Long before man made his appearance on this planet, the reptiles that preceded him were afflicted with tumors, toothaches and bone inflam mation, as well as rheuma tism. And time has erased the evidence of other diseases they may have suffered-such as bacterial infections. In Egyptian Mummies Prof. D. R. Brothwell of Cambridge University report ed in an article in the New Scientist that tuberculosis has been definitely identified in Egyptian mummies and in the skeleton of a stone age man in Germany. This, he said, seemed to suggest that the disease was certainly one of the first ma jor ailments of civilization, if not of man himself. He specu lated that it might have been spread along . with the de velopment of trade relations.
