It's all right to let the radio go while he's dressing or fixing up his room, but to have it blaring away while he works on . algebra prob lems makes no sense at all. The Council: It's jumping to conclusions that makes Mrs. U. jump to the off-switch. But how about waiting until the returns are in - that is, wait ing for Dave's report card? True, it will constitute a cost ly experiment, consuming one whole summer of a teen-ager's life, possibly to no avail so far as algebra goes. On the other hand, there's every chance that Dave will do sur prisingly well - for music hath charms, even bop stuff whose charms elude many parents . . .

LIS WIVES - VII This is the seventh in series of nine articles Entertaining your business associates is often a social get-together requiring you to bring your wife because, your business associates are bringing their wives. Let's assume it's obvious that you can deduct the costs of entertaining your associates and yourself. Does that also entitle you to deduct what you pay ior their wives and your wife? At first, Commissioner of Internal Revenue Caplin indi cated that the Treasury would give a blanket ."yes" answer to this question. , While the final Treasury rules don't go that far, they do make clear that in at least one very com mon situation, the cost of entertaining wives will definitely be deductable. First, here are the general ground rules. The Treasury said that if the cost of entertaining the wives would have been deductible as an ordinary and necessary expense under the law, the deduction will not be barred by the new rules for deducting entertainment expenses. The trouble with this simple-sounding rule was that there were no published Treasury rulings or court cases which explained when the cost of entertaining wives would be considered ordinary and necessary under the old law. Happily for most businessmen, the Treasury finally came out with at least one example showing when it would allow a businessman to deduct the cost of entertaining both his customer's wife and his own - wife, as ordinary and necessary business expenses. - This is so important to so many hundreds of thousand of U. S. taxpayer that I am submitting the exact wording of official Treasury Question and Answer 27 and 28. "27. Question: If a taxpayer entertains a business cus tomer under circumstances where the cost of entertaining the customer is an ordinary and necessary business expense and is not disallowed under the new rules, and the customer's wife joins the taxpayer and the customer during the enter tainment because it is impractical under the circumstances to entertain the customer without his wife, is the cost of entertaining the customer's wife deductible as an ordinary and necessary business expense? Answer: Yes. Such a case might arise, for example, If the customer was from out of town and had his wife travel ing with him. "28. Question: Assuming the same facts as in the pre ceding question and answer, but, in addition the taxpayer's wife Joins them during the entertainment because the cus tomer's wife was present, would the cost of entertainment allocable to the taxpayer's wife be considered an ordinary and necessary expense? "Answer: Yes. While the news is yood for those of you who will . deduct entertainment expenses of wives when your cus tomer comes to town, it isn't good ior the businessman who wants to deduct his own wife's travel expenses when, he takes her along on his business trip. The business traveler can't deduct his wife's travel costs unless she's needed on the trip for a real business purpose.. And the Treasury will probably be quite tough in deciding whether she's really needed for business. For instance, going along with her husband in order to help entertain his business associates will generally not entitle her husband to deduct her travel expenses, says the Treas ury. This leaves an important question hanging in the air. What happens when they get to their destination and the husband takes his wife along to entertain his business asso ciates there and their wives? Will the Treasury let him deduct the wives' entertainment expenses, after barring his wife's travel expenses? Your guess on the answer mine. Next: Collect This Information. The Medical by ff. J or- Spasm in Gullet A number of people have times when they' find it hard to swallow, and then they have to wash solid food down with wa ter. It is al ways cheer ing to hear a patient say two things: one, that his (her) trouble has been pre- Alvares unit i"r over a year; and two, that some times it clears away entirely, because then the cause is more likely to be a spasm than a growth.

OREGON Your Money's Worth By SYLVIA PORTER Copyright, Hell Syndicate, Inc. to this puzzler is as good as Roundup r. r'n Emeritus Consultant In Medicine Mayo riinle Emeritus Professor at Medicine Mayo Clinic (Register and Tribune Syndicate-, 1983) also to hear that often when the difficulty comes, the per son has been struggling with some anxiety, worry, fatigue, or nervous strain. For in stance; one of my patients a woman who used to speak before women's clubs, raising money-whenever she had to "put on a campaign" was like ly to have a flare-up of her "esophago-spasm." With the X-rays I could see that when she was anx ious, her whole gullet would go into spasm, and then take on the appearance of a long corkscrew. In many cases we physicians find that the spasm is at the cardia or up per opening of the stomach where the gullet joins it. In a few cases the difficulty is due to a little diverticulum (pouch) on the side of the gul let, usually up near the base of the neck, when this pouch I fills with food, it presses on the gullet and causes some ob struction. Rarely there is an ulcer or a cancer of the gul let, and more rarely after an unfortunate operation for a little hernia of the midriff (hiatus hernia), there will be a constriction of the lower end of the gullet. Cancer of Cardia In older people there can be a cancer of the cardia or of the upper end of the stom-ach-a cancer which obstructs the cardia. Unfortunately, in many cases, such a cancer is found so late that it cannot be removed by a surgeon. In cases of doubt as to the na ture of the obstruction, it helps to have an expert look into the gullet with a lighted tube. In the cases of both cardio spasm and obstruction due to cancer, an expert can dilate the narrow place with the help of a long rubber bag which, after insertion, is blown up with tap water un der pressure. Sometimes one such dilation of a cardio spasm will give relief, but in many cases several dila tions are needed. In the cases of cancer, dilation have to be repeated from time to time. They can give the patient much relief for some weeks or months, and they can keep W.-n from dying of starvation. A Modest Texan Dick West During Vacation Visit To By DICK WEST Washington - OIPI) - The civic pride of a Texan is one of nature's strongest forces, ranking just behind the pull of gravi ty and just ahead of the capillary at traction of a tuberous be gonia. His tal ent is such that a Texan west can find something affirmative to say about the place where he lives, even when the odds overwhelmingly favor the negative. The untrained eye, for in stance, might not notice any thing superlative about Mer- kel, Texas, which is my old home town. Yet, the citizenry there has never been without a claim of distinction. At one point they used to boast that Merkel was the only town in the world where the population was the same as the elevation. At that time it had 1,872 residents living 1,872 feet above sea level. ' Unfortunately, however, the population increased slightly in the next census. Either that or the eleva tion sank a few feet. I I forget which. At any rate ihe two figures no longer matched. The change was a catastro phe, civic pride wise, and I wasn't certain that the town Pall MbW& oat oral mildimos l& so good So smooth, so satisfying, so downright smokoabfol mi G c C See the difference!

So when I visited in Merkel dur ing a recent vacation, I asked my father whether there was anything left to brag about. "Why, certainly," my fa ther said. "This town is now the home of Cassius Lipbut ton, the world's most modest Texan." "A modest Texan!" I ex claimed. "You must by pull ing my leg." . "Honest Injun," my father said. "If you don't believe it you can go talk to him your self." When I drove up to the Llpbutton home. Cassius was out In the back yard camouflaging his oil wells to make them less conspic uous. He wore pair of low heel boots and his hat 'wouldn't have held a drop . more than four, and a half gallons. I began the interview by commenting on the size of his swimming pool, which was the largest one I had ever seen. "There's a bigger one down state," Llpbutton pro tested, blushing furiuosly. "It's called the Gulf of Mex ico." ' ' "Are those your airplanes?" I asked, pointing to an air drome behind the pool. "Just a few jet transports," Llpbutton said shyly. "Shucks, American Airlines has more jets than I do." "What about your ranch?" I asked. "Isn't it pretty big?" to you Ft ing... ley are Mild! they OetCe. rWetf Home Town "Heck, no," Lipbutton said.
