'S Radioactivity in Air Insignificant On Pacfic Coast By A. ROBERT SMITH Mail Tribuna Waihington Correspondent Washington (Special) - Pub lic Health Service officials say they have found no significant changes in radioactiv i t y in the air along the Pacific coast as result of the current n u clear tests near Christ mas Island. Daily air sam ples taken at smith Portland dur ing the past week show the small amounts of strontium 90 which are expected but are not considered harmful by government officials. The highest amount dis covered between April 30 and May 6 was 9.5 micromicro curies. "We don't bother about it when it is less than 10," a Pub lic Health official said. "The alert figure is 100."

In addition to taking air samples each day at sampling points in all regions of the country, the PHS constantly makes milk sampling tests. Each week a gallon sample is taken at each of 62 stations. This sample is supposed to represent 90 per cent of the milk in that area. Milk taken in the Northwest is sent to a lab at Las Vegas, where ex perts analyze it for iodine 131 and strontium 90, as well as other chemical elements. Tests Take Time Because these tests take considerable time, compared with gathering air samples, the latest information on milk is for samples taken in Febru ary - and officials reported no change since before the Soviet tests of 1961. The average milk samples revealed 8.8 micromicrocuries of strontium 90 per liter dur ing February, compared to 8.5 in January and 9.1 in De cember. Milk is tested primarily be cause it is regarded as a stable index of total dietary intake of radio active materials. Other foods are less reliable because of the consequence of different processing opera tions, an official said. Assuming a person con sumed a quart of milk per day in one form or another, this would provide about half his intake of strontium 90 - the other half coming from his other foods, according to of ficials here. The highest amount of strontium 90 found in any milk samples to date meas ured 50, and this was after the nuclear test series of 1958-59. Drinking Milk Urged While health officials would prefer that people consume none of this element, they point out that it would be more dangerous to a person's health to refrain from drink ing milk. Reason for this is that the loss of valuable die tary elements found in milk would be more harmful to the body of the average person than the intake of minor amounts of radioactive ma terials. This is considered especially true for children, who need bone-building cal cium found in milk. PHS officials had expected an increase in radioactive ma terials this spring because of 1 the tendency of rainfall to bring down dust from the up per air. They assumed there would be some increases of materials floating around in the atmosphere ever since the Russian tests last year. But so far there has been no sign of it.

The Limeliters are just as fine an entertainment group as we had previously suspected, and, 2. The acoustics at Hed rick are abominable, and this community really needs a public auditorium for stage presentations where you can hear what you came to hear. The audience was great; one of the best we've ever seen in Medford, and was a credit to the community. It ranged from tads in blue jeans and sweatshirts to white-haired grande dames who could double for the dowager countess of Rurita nia. We'd guess the average age level was somewhere in the 20s or 30s. Blast of Applause And enthusiasm? Seldom have performers been lis tened to with greater quiet and courtesy around here, and seldom has such a solid blast of applause greeted each num ber. Except for the inevitable discourteous few who leave a bit early to get their cars, thus spoiling pleasure for oth ers, the audience was rapt and attentive. Considering the circum stances, this was remarkable. Sitting on backless bleachers (as about two-thirds of the audience did), and being un able in many cases to hear the words distinctly; those in the balcony suffering from excessive heat, it's a wonder that as many stayed loyally all the way through. The house was jampacked an estimated 2,300 or so. As for the show itself, any one familiar with the Lime liters knows what top-flight artists, entertainers and sing. ers they are. Their repertoire is both wide and deep, rang ing from authentic folk songs to contemporary social satire, all performed with meticu- 21, 1892, in Murphy, Ore., where they were married March 2, 1910. Survivors include two sons, Leon D. Brown, Springfield, Ore.; and Donald M. Brown, Buena Park, Calif.; a daugh ter, Mrs. Bettie R. Huson, Medford; seven grandchildren and seven great grandchil dren. Mrs. Brown also is survived by a brother, Olin Knox, Yamhill, Ore.; and a sister, Mrs. Peter Fick, Jacksonville, Ore. Casket bearers for Mr. Brown will include Robert Bitterling Jack Huffman, Ed Kunkcl, Edwin Hayes, Earle J o s s y and Dale Bigham. Bearers for Mrs. Brown will include Clyde E. Sturgill, Harold E.

Humorous Bits The humorous bits were really funny, and the off color bits were not so off color as to be offensive. As a matter of fact, they offered a welcome relief from the mealy pap we get so accus tomed to on TV. We were pleased and proud to be a part of last night's au dience, and hope that similar attractions will be brought here in the future. We thank the Southern Oregon college student body for their initia tive and courage (yes, cou rage, for they had no idea what the response might be) for sponsoring the show. We were displeased and ashamed that the drafty, un comfortable, barn-like gymna-sium-audito'ium is the best the area has to provide for attractions of this caliber. E.A.
