(UPI) -A number of spiritual messages written by Bishop Fulton Sheen will appear on a boxed selec tion of Christmas cards this year. A spokesman for Hallmark Cards said the distinguished Catholic prelate, author and lecturer had prepared the col lection of miniature "essays" on the spiritual significance of Christmas and that his royal ties were being donated to var ious charities including the So ciety for the Propagation of the Faith, the world-wide mission organization of which he is na tional director. play in grocery stores from coast to coast for consumers to deposit corporate symbols from General Mills products.

WASHINGTON (UPI) - The American Municipal Association estimates that if New York, Chi cago, Boston, Philadelphia and Cleveland were to lose their ex isting rapid transit networks, it would cost $31 billion to build highways to replace them. Women Not Interested in Returning to Good Old Days of Hanging Laundry Out Down through the ages, one way of judging a homemaker was by the appearance of her laundry hanging on the line. Signs of "tattle tale gray" tagged the laundress a poor housekeeper while clothes that were sparkling white or bright ly colored won her the respect of her neighbors. But times have changed. Clotheslines are fast disappear ing from the American scene. Modern women no longer trudge out to the backyard with bas kets of wet wash. Instead, they dry the laundry indoors, in mod ern gas appliances. Gas industry home economists in interviews with thousands of women using gas dryers and washer-dryer combinations have yet to find one who would will ingly return to clothesline dry ing. In fact, American Gas As sociation reports, women say their dryers are Indispensable. Young Mother Delighted A young mother with a new baby is delighted because she is saving both time and money. "I have more time to tend the baby and it's amazing how few diapers, sleepers, and baby clothing I need. An entire load of diapers takes only 15 minuets to dry. I figure that the money saved on baby garments is help ing to pay for the machine." An efficient career woman ex plans that she does the laundry while preparing the family's evening meal. "I simply load the machine and go about my business. Later, while the dishes are being washed, I fold the clothes and put them away. On occasion, I wash very late at night or early in the morning. I just pick the time that suits me, not the weather." A mother with a cardiac con dition calls her gas washer- Michigan Program Brings Foreign Students ANN ARBOR, Mich. (UPD A record 345 young people from Europe, the Far East and Africa are now studying in Michigan high schools under the Youth for Understanding program of the Michigan Coun cil of Churches and the Ann Ar-bor-Washtenaw and Berrien County Councils of Churches. A new phase of the program took 65 Michigan young people to Mexico last summer where they were joined by 25 teen agers from Kansas. The pro sram is increasingly "spilling over into other states,", reports the Michigan Council.' MEETING SET SALEM (UPI) - The Legisla tive Interim Committee on Edu cation has scheduled a meeting here Friday. dryer her "heart saver." "It's in a bathroom adjacent to the bedrooms where most soiled items accumulate and saves me countless steps. I never have to touch the clothes from the mo ment I load the machine until they're dried and ready to be put away. And I practically never have to iron any more. We use mostly synthetic fabrics and they come out of the dryer ready to wear." Keeps Track of Hours A busy mother interested in community activities kept track of the hours she saves with a gas dryer. "It came to approxi mately 156 hours last year, or a dividend of three hours each week that I now devote to im portant community projects. Best of all, I still have more time and energy for my fam ily." . A mother with a large family is especially happy with her gas dryer because it keeps her caught up with the laundry and cuts the family's clothing needs by half. "My dryer is going con stantly. I use it for everything. On stormy, days, I dry the chil dren's boots, raincoats and snowsuits while they eat lunch. Everything's ready for the trip back to school and one set of outer clothing is all they need." And there's the mother who calls her gas washer-dryer "husband-proof," It's equipped with a special control that automat ically regulates temperatures and drying times to suit each type of load, eliminating all possibility of over-drying. "Now I can let my husband do the laundry on those occasions when I have to be away from home. He can't possibly guess wrong, even if he tosses a pair of dungarees in with the sheets. Everything comes out of the dryer just right." More Power Planned For Radio Stations NEW YORK (UPI) Two 10,000-watt transmitters will soon be installed in the Philip pines, site of the Christian Ra dio Network. The overseas radio and mass communications committee of the National Council of Churches, RAVEMCCO, also reports that the transmitter of Station DYCR at Dumaguete City will be stepped up from S to 10 kilowatts "to beam the Christian message to areas not yet reached." On the air since 1950, DYCR broadcasts more than 100 hours weekly of news, music, public interest and religious programs. PARKING PROBLEM OAKLAND, Calif. (UPI) - A Kaiser Industries study showed that if all the people who now use mass transit to commute from New Jersey to New York switched to autos it would take all of Manhattan below 42nd Street just to park their cars. . 1 v f "T? -r ' 1 ,'!'' .-. .i . , I 7" j :vZi4 CAP PLANE CRASHES Flames roar from sons aboard crashed into two homes during : the wreckage of a burning twin-engined Civil takeoff on what was presumbaly a training Air Patrol plane in front of a home at Amity- flight.
