ALONG NATURE'S TRAIL by KEN McLEOD In our last column I started to give Joaquin Miller's first account of the Battle 01 uasue irags as written In his book, "Unwritten History." or "Life Amongst the Modocs." published In London in 1814, U years after the battle took place. Joaquin pictures nimseu, lad ol 16, the hero of the fray, and as a result has left out a lot of. detail. However, the essential elements of the battle are present in the narrative even though he tails to mention Gibson. We left the party just as Uiey reached Cas tle Lake, "a sweet and peaceful place.;' "This is a spot" writes Joaquin, "the Indians will not visit, for fear ot the evil spirits which they are certain inhabit the place. They sat flown in the wood overlooking tue lake, while we descended, drank of . tne cool, deep water and re 1 freshed ourselves for the combat, since the spies bad Just returned and reported the hostile camp only an hour distant. This waa on the 28th day ol June, 1855. The enemy wait not dreaming of our approach, and we were in position, almost surrounding the camp, before we were discovered. "Mountain Joe had distributed us behind the rocks and trees in range of and overlooking the camp. Tne ground was all densely timbered, and covered with a thick growth of black stilt chaparral, save one pot of few acres, by uie side ol which the Indians were camped, at tne toot of a nttie mn. "This was my first war-path. I was aDout to take part In my lirst real battle. I had been placed by Mountain Joe behind a large pine, and alone. He spoke kindly as he left me, and bade me take care of mysell. "I put some bullets in my mouth, primed my pistols, and made all reparation to do my part. It seemed like an age before the fight ' began. I could hear my heart beat like a little drum. . "The Indians certainly had not the, least suspicion of danger. They were it seemed, as much off their guard as possible. They evident ly thought their camp, If not im pregnable, beyond our reach and discovery. They owed the latter to their own race. "At last we were discovered, as aome of the most daring and ex perienced were stealing closer to the camp, and they sprang to their arms with wnoops and yells that lilted my oat almost from, my head. "The yells were answered. Ri THE DOCTOR SAYS By KDVYIN P. JORDAN. M. t. One of the most puzzling prob lems for a great many people is brought up in todny's first in quiry. (J I don't like going to a doctor nowadays because you must know What particular doctor to go to with every particular ailment. I don't know where to begin. I have a pain in my left wrist, I feel my heart beat In my throat, and I get sleepy extremely easily. Mrs. H. A Two things I tl.jik have hap pened to make the problem raised by Mrs. H. important and frequent ly difficult. One is that our popu lation is mobile, and therefore of ten do not get a chance to become established with one family physi cian. The second thing is the great aclentlftc and technical advances In medicine have made It exceeding ly difficult for a single physician to keep up, hence the growth of specialism. Ordinarily, the firm physician for a person like Mrs. H. to see would be a family physician or an internist. The names of prac titioners can be obtained from the local county medical society, or the Directory Department of the American Medical Association at MS North Dearborn street, Chica' m ni from local hosnltnlx. 4 Please write something about the knees grating wnen one is as cending stairs.

" 'Close upl ' shouted Mountain Joe, and we lett cover and ad vanced. I think I must have swal lowed the bullets I put in my mouth, for I loaded from my poucn &s usual, and thought of tnem no more as we moved down upon the yelling Indians. . . "A little group of us gathered be hind some rocks. Then a man came creeping to us through the brush to say that the other side of our company was being pressed and that we must move on. Then anoth er came to say that Mountain Joe had been struck across the face by an arrow, and his eyes were so injured that be could not direct the fight. 'Then come on I I cried; 'Let us push through here to the camp and drive them into the open ground.' I took the lead, the men iollowed, and without knowing it, I became a leader of my fellows. We had wound our balankets about our breasts and bodies so as to guard against arrows, but our heads were unprotected. "Suddenly the arrows came, whiz, whistle, thud, right In our faces. "I fell senseless. After a while I felt men pulling by my shoulders. I could hear and understand but could not see or rise. It seemed' to me they were trying to twist my neck from my body. Yet I felt no great pain, only a numbness and utter helplessness. " 'HelD me cull it out.' said one. They pulled. 'No, you must cut off the point, "Then they cut and nulled, and blood spurted out and rattled on the leaves. ' 'Poor boy, he's done for.' "I could now see. but was still helpless. Half-a-dozen men stood around leaning on their rifles, look ing at me, then around them, as if lor the enemy. By the side of me, with his head in a man's lap lay a young man, James Lane, with an arrow-shot near the eye. I be lieved he died of his wound. ine ugnt was over. An arrow had struck me in the left side of the face, struck the Jaw-bone and men glanced around and came out the back of the neck.

It is a curi ous disorder, commonly resulting from nervous or emotional causes, and Is sometimes difficult to treat successfully.

Pastor, J. R. Dee! HAL BOYLE NEW YORK OB Many people complain about what television has done to Amerloan home life. But what can television do for home life? Can It, for example, give every American home what it deserves most the better house wife? Yes, can television take an ordi nary scrubby bride and mold her Into the kind or wife she yearns to be a charming, Informed, all around woman worthy of travel ing down life's rocky road shoulder to shoulder with that fine fellow, the average American husband? Well, television Is going to try. It is already a guest in your liv ing room. Soon it will be a guest who tells your wife how to make that living room look less crumby, and how she herself can also look less cru. . . I mean. . . look more attractive. This video adventure in wife ed ucation will be launched March 1 via an NBC-TV daily one-hour net work program called "Home." The Idea is reported to be the personal brainchild of NBC Pres ident Sylvester L. Weaver himself, and he has authorized erection of a 8200,000 set for "Home " . The mere announcement of this program upset a friend of mine, who said he had two objections: "First, I nave spent no earnest years trying to Improve my wife. and the only result is that she is olaer. How can television do a better Job on her in an hour a day? The program should be at least eight hours long, seven days a week, if it is to teach wives even half the .things they really need to know.' "Second, every wife who watches that (200,000 set is going to feel sooner or later her hus band ought to buy her a 8200,000 house. Will that simple girlish goal help make your home life more SAM DAWSON NEW YORK Iff) Until Congress takes final action on taxes a lot of business plans likely will be kept In mothballs. And some consumers may be waiting, too, to sec if Congress is going to make a lot of goods cheaper to buy. Tax stories out of Washington today indicate that a long wrangle on tne lioors of the two chambers over tax aid to Industry may be building up to keep business on the anxious scat. The bolstering which tax changes are supposed to offer manufactur ing and retail trade, and thus brake the recession, could be de layed if Congress gets snarled In debates while the economy con tinues to slide. Many businessmen, while hoping for the best, are taking a wait and see stand on part of their plans for expansion, dividends, possible mer gers and foreign Investments. borne tax decisions must be made within seven weeks or auto matic tax drops will go Into effect on many consumer goods, and on corporate income tax rates. If Con gress later should restore these taxes, m full or in part, confusion would be confounded. Merchants complain that al ready some shoppers are holding off their buying, saying they will wait to see what's going to be done aooui excise taxes on autos. furs I and a long list of goods classed as luxuries. Dealers will wait. too. In thrir ordering to see what Congi-p"! does about excise tRx rates, m of which are now scheduled drop April 1.

Industry has manv othi- inn.. clsions while waiting for Congress w n uuirr tax changes. dui worn irom Washington to day is that Concres mnv hi- down because of political pressure u ,r uiviorna taxes stand. April I the Income tax rate on corporations is due to drop to 7 per cent from the present 63. will Congress let it drop, keep it where It is, or compromise at sn r,.r cent? peaceful?" Beautious Arlene Francis will act as editor-in-chief of the pro gram. Assisted by a staff, of ex perts, she will give illustrated hints to the American housewife on how to raise children or pe tunias, how to take spots oft the family dog or her husband's neck tie. how to cook better meals, both with and without a can opener. And, naturally, how to be more charming. Even a crime program today has to teach a housewife how to hold a gat In a charming man ner It it wants to get a real rating. Personally, we wish Miss Fran cis luck In TV's greatest chal lenge so far the building of per fect wives, of which every man could use at least one. And for a starter, we'd like to see her tackle and solve a few typical old household problems, such as: The wife who insists on getting something out of the medicine chest while her husband is shav ing, and uses his razor to cut pa per. . . The wife who won't roll the toothpaste tube from the bot tom. . The wife who can't make up her mind on colors while hub by is mixing the paint ... Tne two-oatnroom lamny in the one - bathroom house ... The neighbor wife who punishes her children If they are destructive In her own home but not if they turn your house into a city dump.- .. The wife who leaves her bobby pins all around the wash basin and yowls when hubby .splashes water and gets them rusty. The wife who . . . (till out your own list, boys, and" mall them to Miss Francis. She'll help you.) , Ot course, some husbands create household problems, too., But even television hasn't figured a way yet to Improve the American hus band. The final decision will affect how much earnings business has left over for dividends for ex pansion, to keep research pro grams going. And business will know by how much any drop in sales totals this year will be oft- set by tax savings, and how much new borrowing it may need. Guard Division Leaves Korea SEOUL I The U. S. 48th Divi sion, an Oklahoma National Guard outfit, staged a huge farewell pa rade today for soldiers returning to the United States. - The 45th is the first American division to leave Korea permanent ly since the start of the war. But only about 1,000 men normally scheduled for rotation will carry the division flag and colors back to Oklahoma for rest will be as signed to other American units here. The 45th Is the first of two divi sions President Eisenhower an nounced last month would be with- drawn from Korea. The 40th, a California National Ouard division, will return late this spring. Scientists Hunt Oil On So Floor TAMPA. Fla. Iff) A four-month study of the makeup of the floor of the Gulf of Mexico, including explorations for oil deposits, will be made by an expedition leaving Tampa Monday. The former pleasure yacht Vema win carry 15 scientists and 13 crew, men. The project ia being under. taken by Columbia University with the financial backing ot several oil companies. Hydrogen Bomb Tests Said Near HONOLULU Iffl Preparations for the coming hydrogen bomb test series in the Pacific are nearing a climax, according to indications in this strategic Pacific staging area. But there is no indication any of the planned scries of tests has actually started. A recent rash of Pacific area earthquakes has prompted specula- tlon that an H-bomb already has been exploded but seismologists flatly deny the possibility ot any such connection. They say the big gest bomb yet devised by man is still a peanut compared to the eruptions of nature. The tests, which will include the first trial of an actual combat- designed hydrogen bomb, are ex pected In two or three weeks. Alvln Graves, director of the 1954 testa at the Marshall Islands Atom ic Proving Grounds, passed through Honolulu two weeks ago and Is presumably in the test area now. He did not answer his hotel phone during his stopover here. MaJ. Gen. Percy W. Clarkson, commanding officer of Atomic Task Force Seven, left Honolulu a month ago, presumably for the Marshall Islands, and returned last week. Two days later he left again, in the same direction. An Army spokesman reported his arrivals and departures without further comment. . An Informant at Holmes and Narver, an engineering and con tracting firm which supplies men and materiel for the atomic tests, said Uie movement of construction personnel to the test area is about over. He said It was expedited in the last three weeks. The Atomic Energy Commission notified airlines in advance of the 1052 tests to stay clear of the area. Because of news leaks at that time they have now been told there will be no such advance warning this time. One alrpline spokesman said that in case of any danger they would be notified on"an emergency basis. The Weather Bureau provides a hint- that the tests are still two or three weeks off at best. Prevailing winds through February blow west to east across the Pacific and could carry dangerous atomic dust clouds to Hawaii and the United States. Official comment' cn the ap proaching tests Is nonexistent. Mil itary and civilian spokesmen de cline comment on anything to do with the top-secret subject. They look hurt If you even mention the word. Lakeview Woman Dies At Home . LAKEVIEW Mrs. Anna L, Curtis, wife of Arthur M.

Morse said today the administration's proposed new farm program was designed to help all the people not farmers alone. "Agriculture must be dealt with as a total Industry taking in all those who produce, process, store, finance, sell and otherwise work with farmers and farm products," he said. . 'The narrow view," lie added, "is to consider only the 16 per cent of the population now living on farms. Such a limited approach will restrict agricultural progress . . Tne administration's pro gram will Increase the well-being and prosperity or all the people. That is why President Elsenhower has given It such close study." Morse made these remarks In a speech prepared for a meeting of the Corn Belt Livestock Feeders Assn. The administration program would place less dependence on price supports and production con trols tnan do present farm pro grams. Morse said the present program of high rigid price supports and controls Is one of "scarcity" that would do damage to the total economy , by reducing employment in tne marketing, transportation, and processing of farm products. Criticizing high supports for corn and other livestock feed grains, Morse said livestock producers and feeders are entitled to have "flex ibility in the costs ot their feed" to go along with flexibility in the prices they receive for cattle, hogs, poultry and dairy products. He said present scarcity of pork and pork products and ac companying high prices can be blamed on price supports which encourage farmers to store corn under government price supports rawer man feed It to hogs.

Ill N. 7th yV, in t Gable, Russell In Film' Guys By BOB THOMAS HOLLYWOOD Iffl Jane Russell has declared he Independence and signed up for what could be the Best role of her career. The beauteous brunette was swimming under water In the RKO tank when I saw her this week. She doesn't aim to rival Esther Williams: this was the windup se quence underwater for "The Big Rainbow.". She came out of the water, shed her breathing tank, swim fins and goggles and an nounced she had also disposed of her 13-year connection with How ard Hughes. As of now, she Is a tree agent, although she might sign a. one- picture-a-year deal with RKO. She has some strange fear she will not be able to find work. Silly girl. She is all set to go Into one of the leads of "Guys and Dolls," which William Goetz will produce for a Columbia release. Her lead ing man will be none other than Clark Gable. Betty Grable will play Miss Adelaide and another top star is destined for the role of Nathan Detroit. Bob Hope maybe, i But the Interesting part Is that my husband will follow Bill Qoeti around like a bird dog during the production, asking him why he does tms and why he does that," she added. Her husband Is Robert Wa terflcld, formerly of pro football. The reason for his apprenticeship Is that the Watcrfields have formed their own production company, Russ-Flcld. Anxious Jane is hunting for an other picture to do before she starts "Guys and Dolls." It could be "The Long Wire " with John Wayne. Gilbert Roland, Jane's co-star in "The Big Rainbow," also has plans of his own. He is anxious to begin work on "Blood on the Horns," the story of his bullfighting father. He already has a script from Niv en Busch, who wrote "Duel in the Sun." v , "Busch picked up a copy of my treatment in my agent's office," Roland relates. "He fell In love with the story and did a great script. The story has never been told before how the life of a bull fighter affects his wife and chil dren. I plan to shoot it this sum mer outside of Mexico City, "I would love to have Ingrld Bergman play the role of my mother, end I'm going to try to get her, I think she'd be great.
