CHAMPAIGN, 111, May 5 ( Attorney John L. Franklin's aspar agus crop is sprouting, but he's not happy. Franklin planted the asparagus in his yard three years ago. It didn't come up so Franklin built a drive way over the barren patch. For surfacing he used four inches of gravel and two Inches of asphalt Now the driveway Is splitting and the asparagus is peeking through the cracks. Franklin thought he had something for science. But Lee Somers of the University of Illinois college of agriculture shrugged him off with this story: " An Ivy vine less than an inch m diameter once threw old University hall completely out of plumb. The hall since has been rased because of age, not of Ivy. Meanwhile, Franklin is using weed killer to save the driveway. Doctor, Dentist Draft Modified WASHINGTON, May 5 P Senators working on draft legisla tion agreed Tuesday to restrict calls of doctors and dentists into the armed services. Chairman Gurney (R-SX).) told repuileis after a closed-door meet ing of the senate armed services committee that problems of limit ing the draft of medical men are delaying final action on the measure. He said the members are agreed there must be restrictions. "All medical men cannot be taken from one community and leave civilians without any protection," Gurney said. The committee Is working on a bill that would (1) authorize a tem porary draft of men 19 through 25 years for two years' service In the armed service. (2) provide a one year training program for some 180,000 18-year-olds with the reg ular armed forces.
