I senators lhati mfltl A IHHail the United States is be coming over stocked with loving ambas- wesi sadors. Some concern over the increase in the roving ambassador popula tion was expressed at a recent hearing of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. This came as a surprise to me. I can remember a lime not many years back when the rov ing ambassador was. like the whooping crane, in danger of becoming extinct. But now. thanks to the mobil ity of modern diplomacy, roving ambassadors are plentiful again. Some say too plentiful. Thus far, nobody has died (o organize a campaign to Nlamp out roving ambassa dors. Nor has there brcn any talk of an open season to keep their numbers in check. Nevertheless, the situation has Girl Wins Title PENDLETON (UPI) Shar on Hoptowit, 16-year-old grand daughter of the last chief of the Walla Walla tr ibe, Saturday was named winner of the American Beauty Contest for Indian girls. The contest was a feature of the Pendleton Roundup. Sharon lives on the Umatilla Indian Reservation at Cayuse. Her grandfather, Jim Kanine, was the last recognized chief of the Walla Wallas. Triplet Girls Born In Springfield Hospital SPRINGFIELD, Ore. (UPD Triplet girls, born Saturday to Airs. James R.

"I want to say 1 am very happy that we do finally send somebody over there who is listed as a special representa tive," rather than as an am bassador. Carlson commented. He added that in his opinion the skill of our negotiators is not necessarily enhanced by striped trousers. But Sen. George D. Aiken (R-Vt.) poinnted that there is a marked difference be- hven a special representative and a roving ambassador. The former wears a black tie and the latter a white tie, Aiken explained. This brought from Sen. Frank J. Lausche (D-Ohio) an account of the time that he, as a new comer to Washington, attended his first White House reception in formal dress. As he was standing on the por tico, Aiken came out, handed him a ticket and said "Car 67, please." I gathered from this that the senators fear our roving ambas sadors might be mistaken for parking attendants. Or, worse yet, for senators. Demos Say Tax Cut Would Free Industry WASHINGTON (UPI) - Dem ocratic tax writers declared Sat urday that an $11 billion tax cut would free American indus try from the "present high - tax stait jacket" and encourage it to build a healthy economy. Democrats on the House Ways and Means committee said the bill now headed for the House would allow private enterprise rather than the federal govern ment to tackle problems such as unemployment, lagging eco nomic growth and the public debt. t J- ; 4 M If It wonders me how she gets the laundry so bright anymore! I think she just outens the washing film 1 with Calgon. Calgon, cleans away washing film that detergents and bleach can't touch Washing film: It yellows, it won't rinse out. It leaves things not quite clean. Soaps and detergents can't touch it. (In fact they cause it. That'B why extra detergent is no substitute for Calgon.) Bleach can't remove washing film, either. But Calgon water conditioner gets rid of it just . . . like . . . that! A little Calgon with less detergent and your linens simply shine. Towels fluff up like new , . . and absorb more water. Diapers dry soft as baby. Well, almost. Nylons and Dacron? No more yellow ing from washing film when you use Cal gon. Cotton prints getting dim? Often thats washing film, but colors snap right back with Calgon. Washer makers recommend Calgon, and put Calgon samples in new machines. P.S. A Calgon solution restores dull shower curtains . . . cleans combs and brushes (just soak a while). And a little Calgon in the water prevents bathtub ring, soap lathers bet ter, rinses away cleanly. Why Calgon even brings out the natural shine of your hair. (Rinse first with Cal gon, then with plain water.) Now won't you try Calgon? Y calqon Wit I :! 6 " . Five Bundles of Squawling Humanity Thriving in Aberdeen, S.D., Hospital Editor's note: United Press International assigned a three man reporting team and a staff of still and movie photographers to Aberdeen lo cover the first days of life for the Fischer quin tuplets. The team report is by H. D. Quigg of New York. Rich ard .McFarland, Minnesota slate manager, and Ray Serati, South Dakota state manager ABERDEEN, S. D. (UPI) -Five bundles of kicking and squawling, bawling humanity with heads the size of large or anges and crinkled hands not much larger than a silver dol lar the Fischer quints were ready today for their first tip ping of the nursery scales. Dr. James Berbos, their physician, said he would prob ably weigh them for the first time today if Uicy behave themselves. The pink-skinned, 18-inch-long babies are unusual ly healthy for prematures. A statue of the infant Jesus looks down from the St. Luke's hospital nursery wall at the end of their row of "isolctte" incu bators. A staff of nurses watches over them constantly. A hospital spokesman said to day the quints had a "real good night" and their condition was unchanged. The sugar-water which each infant gets every two hours around the clock was increased during the night to 5 cubic centi meters about one teaspoon. Not once have they had trouble taking or holding it. Fed by Tube The feeding, by tube through the nose, began Sunday morn ing when the quints born six lo eight weeks prematurely were entering their second day of life. The dosage was 2 cc. at first, increased to 4 cc. and now 5 cc. Another first for them today was the probability that the doc tor would put them on some kind of milk formula. Mean time, he said, they're "getting along fine" on the glucose-water intake, by plastic tube which runs down nearly to their tiny stomachs. Fine, too, was their mother, reddish-haired Mary Ann Brady Fischer, 30, a native of the nearby community of Hecla, S. D., who has been up and walk ing about in her room. She prob ably will go home by the middle or the end of the week, Berbos said. And the papa? Well, Andy Fischer got up early and milk-1 John Fjschel. "I came over here and sat with Andy while he milked his two cows yesterday," said El roy Harrington, 68, who lives on six acres across the road and owns the 160 acres which con tains the house he rents to Fis cher. "What did he have to say? Just about the same as always." "I don't think he quite real izes." But what he must realize, real good by now, is that if the quints live the danger zone through which they now are passing should last for 72 hours or to 3:01 a.m. Tuesday he will be father of the first set of quints to survive in the United States. Retains Attorneys He has retained a couple of lawyers, Joseph H. Barnett and Stan Siegcl, and there was brisk bidding going on with them for picture rights to the already famous five Fischers and their mother. Fischer was asked at a press conference: "If you could do it all over again, what would you do?" "You should have asked me that seven months ago," he re plied evenly. Barbos said the quintuplets probably would be in the iso letles for two months. They are so active already that they sometimes wriggle crosswise in their incubator cells, which are designed to control heat, hu midity, and oxygen. They have not been getting oxygen. The boy is the largest quint Berbos said he looks to be about four pounds and the girls about 3'-2. They "somewhat re semble each other," he said, and their hair is "sparse." Two portholes on each side of each isolette allow nurses to handle the babies. By state de partment of health rule no visit or is allowed on a maternity floor except husbands. The press is forbidden to go to the third-floor nursery here and peek through the window. Town Wakes Up This college town (Northern State Teachers College) of 25,000 was just waking up to what had hit it. Church-goers were all smiles Sunday at the harried influx of reporters, pho tographers, and television men in the streets around Sacred 1 Heart Roman Catholic Church, j where Fischer attended 10:30 1 a.m. Mass with his three oldest ' children and his mother, Mrs. i a TV aerial on his blue, gabled root, inside there are cruci fixes on living and dining room walls. The rooms are sparsely and sparingly furnished. The kitchen is small. There are five rooms upstairs, five down. As you drive into town from the Fischer place, you encoun ter a city limits sign announc ing "City of Aberdeen ordi nance enforced on all noisy mufflers and speeding." On the other side of town, at the airport terminal, there is an other sign, a white cardboard one placed Saturday afternoon under the bronze plaque telling the airport was dedicated in 1950. The new sign says: "Chamber of Commerce press room, Alonzo Ward Hotel.

Edited by Mri. Alma Denny. (Copyrithl by general reacurca Corp.) Gilbert S. He thinks nothing of interrupting me at any time. Irwin S. Even if I only say hello, he calls it interrupting. w Cilbert S. Am I being un duly sensitive or am I within my right? My brother and I each have our own room in our Long Island home and commute to college in New York. Irwin's a senior, majoring in business eco nomics, and I'm a junior per med student. My work is stiff and 1 expect Irwin to leave me alone, but he bursts in, even when my door is closed, and disturbs my study for any trivial reason. Irwin S. He's the most self ish guy you'll meet. Once he shuts himself in his room, we can all drop dead for all he cares. Telephones, doorbells ring: He makes me answer them all, even when he's ex pecting a few. All 1 do is try to get him to act human in stead of like a machine bending over books. As long as he lives at home he ought to be ap proachable. If he wants to be a recluse, let him find a cave. The Council: .Interruptions, Gilbert, may be welcome as well as unwelcome. You'll admit that some of Irwin's have ser ved to bring you glad tidings, refresh you, bring you back lo reality. Instead of asking him to Keep - Out - Always - And This - Means - You, you want him lo stop short at your thres hold and ask himself, Is this trip necessary? And if so, is it more necessary for me (mv urge to kibitz! ) than for Gilbert? Because some interruptions are merely self-indulgences for the interrupter who craves a little atten'ion, is ripe for some light bar ., a bit of human response. Gilbert is right to ask Irwin to seek another outlet for some of his own needs. To break in ligh' y on a student endeavor ing to carry a thread of thought through convolutions of reason ing is indeed a form of cruelty. As Phyllis McGinley said of the robin with the worm, "Open his mouth to say hello, and in that instant, it slips away!" Bend Man First in Apprentice Contest EUGENE (UPI) - Harold Strope of Bend came in first and Vernon Cruse of Lebanon fin ished second in a contest for electrical wircmcn apprentices Saturday. The contest was sponsored by the Brotherhood of Electri c a 1 Workers and the Oregon Colum bia Chapter of the National Electrical Contactors association. DK GAULLE ASSAILED TARBES, France (UPI) -French Communist party chief Jacques Duclos said Sunday night that President Charles de Gaulle's resistance to lessening of East-West tensions is "unfor tunately identical with that of China."

Kyle, Mgr. ed his Jersey and Guernsey to day, same, as always, in the huge blue barn behind his farm house, two miles out of town. Sightseers are common now on the road in front of Ihe two story, ten-roomed, grey stucco house, which Fischer rents for $55 a month. He has five bed rooms, but the trouble is, he had five other children before the quints burst on his horizon. They're aged 3, 4, 5, fi and 7, named Dcnise, Evelyn, Julie, Charlottee, and Danny. Doctor Foregoes Fee "I don't think I'll charge them anything," Berbos said of the Fischer family. "1 always said of there were triplets, 1 wouldn't charge them anything, but I've never delivered trip lets." j He added. "I understand the hospital isn't going to charge them anything either." But a hospital spokesman said Fischer had said he would pay charges anyway because he has hospital insurance. Berbos was asked whether he had any other deliveries since the quintuplets. We think it is wonderful," a woman churchgoer summed up town opinion. I Both mothers-in-law have 1 been staying at the Fischer J home, caring for the children. ; "Mrs. Fischer was a farm j girl," said Harrington, "and she ! tended every bit of this garden j while she was pregnant plant-; ed and hoed it and she put up 100 quarts of dill pickles. j "I said that if Andy wanted I to put up a new home that I would donate an acre for it. He has always liked it so much out here." The explosion that shook Aberdeen and sent a shock wave around Ihe world began when that clock stood at 1:58 a.m., central standard time, in the cool, overcast pro-dawn of Saturday, Sept. 14. The first quint was born then and the fifth was delivered at 3:01 a.m. by Berbos and two doctor asso ciates. Nearly Faints Mrs. H. I. King said that when her brother-in-law.
