The most immediate goal, according to NASA Admini strator James E. Webb, is "to assure a continuing supply of scientific and technical manpower." But there are broader aspects. More Active In Effort The agency wants univer sities to become more active in the space effort. Webb said NASA hopes "to make the university a center for developing men with eager, trained, self - starting minds and also a center of creative activity in basic research in support of broad national ob jectives." A Natural Resource In time NASA sees the pos sibility of a university - in dustrial community growing out of shared research and in creased communication. Speaking at the University Peace Corps Exam Scheduled Saturday Another examination for placement in the Peace Corps will be conducted in Medford Saturday, April 27, L. B. Nel son, examiner for the U.S. Civil Service. Medford post office, has announced.

SAFE CYCLING CAMPAIGN Reflective tape for bicycles has been distributed to Medford schools in preparation for the safety program starting Saturday by Crater Lake post, Veterans of Foreign Wars, with the cooperation of the Medford Safety coun cil, school personnel and civic groups. The goal is to have the tape applied on rear fenders and handle bars of bicycles to make Medford the safest cycling city in America. SECTION B Medford MEDFORD, OREGON. WEDNESDAY. APRIL 24. 1063 The Medical rt. v- 0 The American Widow In a remarkable little sta tistical bulletin put out by the Metropolitan Life Insur ance company for November, 1962, I find an article on widows. The author states that during the past two decades, t h c number of widows in arez mis couniiy has been growing by more than 100,000 a year. Today, there are some eight and a quarter million widows in the United States, and their num ber is rising rapidly. It seems interesting that there are four widows to one widower. This is due partly to the higher mortality among men, and also to the fact that there is a higher re-marriage rate among widowers. In 1961. almost three-fifths! of the widows in the United I States were 65 years of age or older. About a tenth of all i women between the ages of 48 and 54 are widows, and the number goes up to 69 per cent at the age of 75 and over. Of th'e 550,000 women whose husbands died in 1961, about j 90,000 were under the age Of 45. Over half of all the! widows were under 60 years of age. According to the bulletin, three-fourths of the women who became widows at age . 45 can expect to live another 28 years. I am much interest ed to learn that more than two-thirds of all widows j maintain a household of their i own. Many have children or Other relatives living with them. Most other widows live in the home of a relative Only about six per cent of the widows live alone. Financial Problems Many 'widows face serious financial problems, and it is i not always easy for them to find a job About a third of them some two and a half million are working women; I many work only part-time. Many, when the husband dies. 1 are handicapped because they ! have not had to work for a long time. Perhaps they nev . cr did have to work and so it is hard for them to begin. ! Fortunately, many husbands leave a sufficient amount of ! life insurance for their wid iows to live comfortably the average amount of this life in- surance is now about $11,000. i comaprcd with about 55.000 I in 1951. It would be wonder ' ful if all widows would ask j the insurance company to keep this money for Ihcm, and give them cither the in ! lercst or an annuity which is made up of interest, plus a little capital A widow with no sense in regard to the in vesting of money quickly loses all she has been left. power is an essential factor in the industrial growth of a region . . .

D., "Learning to Live as a Widow". (Julian Messner). Marion Langer knows whorcof she speaks, be cause she is a widow as well as an eminent sociologist, a university teacher and an ex ecutive secretary for the American Ortho-psychiatric Association. She has done marital and family counsel ling. Mrs. Langer dicsusscs in her book such subjects as what you can do about your feelings, handling money, be ing a working woman, contin uing your social life, helping your children with their prob lems, making a new life for you and your children, get ting to know men again and finally, remarriage. One of the most distressing things that can happen to a family is to have some mem ber become mentally upset. The booklet, "When Mental Illness Strikes a Family," by Dr. Alvarez, can offer help during this trying period. You may obtain a copy by sending 25 cents and a stamped, self addressed envelope to Dr. Walter C. Alvarez, Dept. MMT, Box 937, Dcs Moines 4, Iowa. Cuba Biggest Issue, Republicans Discover Washington UPI - Republi can pulsc-takcrs said Tuesday the administration's Cuban policy is the biggest national issue confronting the Ameri can people. This conclusion was report-1 ed at a news conference by j some of the members of the "Paul Revere" panels which traveled the country to preach ! Republican gospel and answer I questions during the Easter recess. Rep Robert H. Michel (III.) said there was agreement thai the biggest issue is "the fail- ure of the administration to develop a firm, positive policy ; toward Cuba."

Next year the agency plans to expand the program to sup port about 900 students at 90 universities. The grants are Intended to do more than just pay one student's graduate school tui tion, according to Dr. Thomas K. Smull, director of NASA's office of grants and research, which handles the university program. He said NASA hopes the money it pays out for tui tion will be used to strength en a school's program of space-related sciences. To encourage use of the funds for this purpose. NASA awards the training grants to the participating university rather than to the individual student.

This advice came from Pnl Sterling K. Eisminurr. Purl. land district engineer. Elk Creek, Lost Creek and Applegate reservoirs were au thorized by Congress last Oc tober. However, funds were not appropriated for construc tion. There is considerable de tail work to be ncrnninlishpH by the Army Engineers before land acquisition ts initiated, Colonel Eisminger said. "Landowners are concern ed and wish to know when their property will be pur chased by the government," lie milled. "When funds are made available, we will advise the people who will be affected and provide them Information concerning our construction and purchase schedules," Colonel Eisminaer said. "For the nrcsent. each lanrlnvjnpr should continue his normal operation. its Pepsi lectcd for the program, Smull said, it receives funds equal to the fees a student would otherwise have to pay him self. The school may use the grant to build up any one of its space science departments. For example, Smull explain ed, a school which asks for money to support a chemistry student may use the funds NASA awards for his tuition to strengthen the astronomy department. To qualify for the training grants, the universities must first submit proposals of what Ihcy Intend to do with the money they would receive. NASA then selects schools for the program on the basis of: Scholastic accreditation ratings. Resources such as labor atories, equipment, libraries and faculty. Quality of Department The quality of its science department in the student's field. Its research record in his field. Location of the school in relation to other centers of space-related work. The university's need for help to make full use of its training capability. wm PAMT SPECIAL! ioiy la Apply with Iruih er Roller N "Polnry" Oder Drill In 1 Hour iy Clian-up with Soap and Water After Pointing CHOICE OF MODERN COLORS OPEN MONDAY AND Effort i NASA would like to spread its money around among tha its money around among the ' smaller colleges. In this way it is hoped that more space, science programs can be de veloped instead of just en hancing existing ones in the bigger and richer colleges. Selected Br Faculty Students will be selected for the program by faculty members in a position to judge their ability. During their training, they will work with faculty researchers on space related projects. Such ties with the space effort, NASA hopes, will provide "additional motivation for the trainee to continue work in this area . . ." After receiving their de grees, students are not com mitted to work for the space agency. Smull emphasized there will be plenty of open ings for space - scientists in industry. Universities also will need the new Ph-D.'s to teach and to conduct their space-research programs. PLUMBERS TOOLS for HINT at A to Z Rental 1213 N.
