Of course a few years ago there were no geiger counters, but the clicking bug was present, clicking away just as docs the modern geigcr counter when in the vicinity of radioactive material. This sound, made by the geigcr counter bug, has been the inspiration for many names for this common insect. Probably the first common name was click-beetle. Boys named it click-clack because it sounded like the tiny toy used for making noises for Halloween or New Year's celebrations. Skip - jack, snapping bug, and spring-beetle were other common names. Leaning a lit tle more on the scientific side these insects were called the "eycdclaters," and aptly, too, for the eye-spots are very conspicuous. Placed on Back Long ago boys purposely placed these beetles on their backs just to hear the sharp melallic click when the bug tighled itself. There are hun dreds of varieties, usually dark brown or black, some times covered with while blotches, giving the bug the appearance of salt and pep per. The very large eye-spots are velvety black rimmed and white. The real eyes are for ward of these eye-spots. In many species both the wire worm larvae and the adult beelles are luminous. The larvae, known com-1 monly as wireworms, are smonlh-bodicd and hard; Ihc ! head is darker colored than j the body. In some areas and I at some seasons of the year j the wireworms are destruc tive to the roots of plants. It takes several years for com plete development; this long interval is spent underground. The sharp metallic click, a really loud sound for mi inch- long insect. Is produced by a long process attached to the underside of the body which is held in a socket until re leased. I.ike a spring, the releasing of this "Inggrr" throws the beetle into the an- a short distance, enabling il to turn over and land on its feet, at the same time making the clicking sound. The releasing of this spring jars the beetle to his eye-spots and throws him violently Into the air, where, like a cat, it twists the body and conies down feet first Glow in Dark In most tropical species the eye-spots, one on either side of the forward section of the body. kIow in the dark with a soft, greenish light The first aniaed individual who no lieed this, naturally named the beetle, the "automobile bug " To see the beetle walking across a little open sp.teo w hen I lie light is Just l,nght enough to separate the mov ing from the surroundings, it rio;'s look very much like a tiny automobile, its headlights glowing Hut tunes change and some one else, being conscious of : electronic influence, h card the sharp click of Hie ' auto, mobile bug'' and renamed it "tile lieigor counter bug : TROOPER AS CHASER North Haven, Conn. 1 Tt State police have erected tins sign on the Wilbur ross PaiRway: Driver who has one tor the ro.ed has trooper as chaser." Theater Adds To Economic Activity Ashland - America's first Elizabethcan theater, the Ore gon Shakespearean festival in Ashland, has added to South ern Oregon's appeal to tour ists, according to William patton. Patton, general manager, presented a speech entitled "Shakespeare Is Big Busi ness" during the Southern Oregon college faculty hour last week. The theater is expected to draw 50,011(1 enthusiasts this summer with a six week show attendance up steadily from 24,00(1 five years ago. Seated In a $400,000 globe-style the ater, theater-goers will see a series of four plays that re quires about $128,000 a year to produce, Patton said. Estimating the tourist at tendance to number 34,360, approximately 72 per cent of the 47,723 people at the plays last year, Patton said that these out-of-the-valley visitors spend about $7 per person above the price of the theater tickets. This boost to the valley economy averages about $40, 000 a week. Over the six week season nearly a quarter of a million dollars is spent by tourists as a direct conse quence of the Oregon Shake spearean festival productions. Ihe $240,527 spent by theater-goers last year indicates that the Shakespearean Festi val is one of Jackson county's major businesses, as well as a focal point for cultural ac tivities in southern Oregon, Patton said.

He may have a pain in his heart, or in a lung or chest wall, or he may have one- of those pains which vaguely - we doctors call a neuralgia. It may be like a headache.

Rarely there is a "neuronitis" a strange apparently infectious, dtoaw mai can suaueiuy puidiye a person, and then gradually clear up in the following six months. Rarely would I personally care to diagnose a neuritis without getting help from a trained neurologist who would examine the person carefully. If he did find signs of inflammation and weakness of certain nerves, then I would want his help in determining what agent had injured the nerve or nerves. Was it perhaps a virus, or was it an unrecog nized diabetes, or pernicious anemia, or could il be due to some drug such as alcohol? I remember the 45-year-old wife of a distinguished man who had me fooled for a tew days - complaining ot a 'neuritis all over, but talk ing also about her "gallstone PURCHASE 9.77 VOIT RUBBER SAIL FINS 1.67 AdiustaMe. sturdy strap with sure-toe k fastC'ifr.
