Short declared: 'That Is propaganda for universal military training Intended to fright en and scare the American people. Investigation Urged "It Is up to congress to make an Investigation to find out what has caused our army to become a "poor second' to Russia's In the face of huge appropriations and unheard of surpluses of materials. Our army leaders should be called upon to explain what they have done with the unprecedented peacetime mili tary appropriations. There has been too much double talk." Short said that If the war de partment's budget estimates do ot "exclude" the possibility of war in JB46, as Elsenhower testified, "then thev aren't doing anything to get ready for it." Despite the f-t thai we passed a stockpiling bill last year," he said, "the armv hasn't done a thlnr to obtain stocsnlle of atraterlc material that would be needd In a war. We have aoproorlatert th necessary money, but aooarentle all we have got for H Is a lot o' dream ing. What are thev walttng for? Another Pearl Harbor?"

Ancients Used Imagination In Seeing Animals In Sky By J, Ill'till PIU'KTT Aftlr.n.mrr, fc'ilr-n.laa lllvltUa, Orra Hlgatr Kduralloa Sjiltm How often we wonder It Ihe an cient peoples did not have moot vivid Imaginations when they saw In the heavens the meiuigerlo of ani mals which the names of Ihe con stellations Imply. Constantly slip ping westward along Ihe blue sky, there are so we are told two bears, two Hons, two dogs, a ram, a giraffe, a rabbit, a woll, a flying horse, heroes, birds, snakes and fish of various kinds, a crab, scor pion, and one lone fly. The ancient sky cartographers de picted 48 of these wily creatures. In more recent times, when travel soutl. of the equator became fairly common and the southern stars were studied, other constellations were added until Uie total at present is 88. Latin Word The term "constellation" comes from a Latin word which might freeh be translated "studded with stars." It refers to a conspicuous group of stars. "Asterlsm" Is some times used In the same sense or It mav indicate a small group within a constellation, such as the Big Police Probe Fire At Rogue Plant MED FORD, July 1 n 8tste police were Investigating Monday j the cause of a tire which caused an , estimated $35,000 loss In the Rogue river lime plant at Rogue River J Saturday night. The blase began in a shed nous-1 lng paper bags used to ship lime, ! and spread to destroy two large , hoppers, two large electric motors, and other machinery. The plant Is , owned by T. T.

The Rogue River fire department was hampered In fighting the blase because the nearest fire hydrant had been smashed in an auto acci dent that same day. i Malin Cab Service Day and Night Service Malin Banania V Merrill Klamath Falls Phone 125 Malin -FASHION PARK FAMOUS BRANDS in WESTERN-WEAR AT DREW'S BOOTS 0 Nocona 0 Olsen-Stelier 0 Tony Lama Hyei 9 Stewart 0 Weslei q Acme SHIRTS & RIDERS 0 Levi Strauss c H.

Ti4 names of the constellations as we know them today are of very ancient origin, a few dallng back nearly to 3000 B, C. The Orevk Heslod around 600 B. 0, mentioned several. Aratus, the poet of the Macedonian royalty - In the third century B, C. used the names of 44, all ot which are on our present lists. It Is thought that most of the groupings originated among tit Babylonians and oilier peoples of the great Euphrates valley, and that the system was later carried by the Phoenicians to Greece. But it was from the Greeks that we ob tained our knowledge of the ancient constellations and the myths con nected with them. No Specification There Is speculation as to whether the Interesting mythological stories were formulated to fit the star groupings or vice versa. The latter seems the mflre probable. Whatever their origins, they are "stories that endure," and after thousands ot years still have great literary value and are read with Interest. There was often great contusion as to the exact outlines of each constellation. One chart might put a certain star In Ursa major and another place It In the adjoining Draco. The boundaries were irregu lar curved lines. In IM0 the Inter national Astronomical Union set definite boumlnrtrs ot regular spherical lines to be Used on sky maps everywhere. A few years ago A, P. Herbert, a member of the British parliament, proposed renaming all Ihe conslel Inllons for modern heroes, authors, musicians, and even for ali'iiluurs. But the pronoMil utterly lacked literary appeal. The slars are very old In terms ot human history, so why are not the ancient names ami lories Ihe most filling tor thrni? Learning the principal constella tions by one's self Is easy and most Interesting for Ihe one possessing simple star ma and a slight amount of perserverence. ntaAi n nswa. . r n...
