Kan., or Huntington, Ore., such confusion is normal the year round and Has been for so Ions that it's pretty generally ignored. Blountstown. Lakin and Hunt ington are towns situated literally on the borderline of time, places where the time zones come to gether and where clock-watching is a necessary, time-honored cus tom. Life on the edge of time can have its inconvenciences like trains that leave before they ar rivebut it has its advantages, too, especially to people like Bart Knight. Thanks to the Eastern-Central time line, Knight, who is prosecut ing attorney for both Calhoun and Liberty counties in Florida, can do the impossible. He can be in two places at the same time. He can leave hit home in Blountstown (Central) for a 10 a.m. court session in Bristol and wind up affairs there in time to be back in Blountstown for its 10 a.m. court session.

First-Shift Mill Workers Enter Plant Sans Incident HENDERSON, N.C. (AP) First-shift workers entered the struck Harriet-Henderson Cotton Mills without incident today after the third straight night of violence in this small industrial city. Following a pattern established earlier in the week, only a few strikers showed up at the mills heavily guarded North and South Henderson plants to jeer and shout at incoming workers. Rifle shots peppered the plants again Thursday night until sec.

Water came cascading through the ceiling as the cheese and port were being enjoyed. The flood sent everyone scrambling, includ ing Baron Godber. Vice Adm. Sir Charles Norris and Sir Charles .locelyn Hambro. a director of the Bank of England. Two plumbers working on a floor above the dining room had a misunderstanding about who was supposed to turn the water oft. "Harrogate's famous waters were certainly laid on for us." said Lord Godber.

No serious' injuries were report- ed among the workers or the large number of shouting pickets gathered outside the mill gates. Operation of a second shift at he plants, struck Nov. 15, has brought criticism from Gov. Luth er Hodges, who said he had warned the management it might mean bloodshed. Shortly before the second shift left at 11 p.m., highway patrol men fired two parachute flares -jver the South Henderson plant. Other patrolmen patrolled a back street across from the mill where most of the sniper fire had originated. Under Ihe brilliant light of the Hares and the watchful eyes of ihe patrolmen, the workers left without incident. In Raleigh. Gov. Hodges, him self a former textile olficial, dis closed he had warned mill presi dent, John D. Cooper Jr. April 16 against opening the second shift. Cooper, who started the second shift April 20, told Hodges that to close the shift would be "an abso lute surrender to force and violence." Gov. Hodges said he released details of his letter to Cooper "to remind Cooper of his personal re sponsibility for the present diffi culty." Cooper said previously he would close the mills permanently if he had to close down any of the shifts. The strike began after the com pany insisted on elimination of an arbitration clause from a new con tract with the Textile Workers Union of America. It apparently had been settled April 17. Union strikers were to be re hired on the second shift and a promised third shift. When they arrived Monday, they said, only 30 jobs were available. Since then, the mills have been targets of rifle fire. A force ot too highway patrolmen has been recalled. Long Phone Call Misinterpreted PHILADELPHIA (AP - Abe Pressman, an engineer with Ra dio Corp. of America, has just had a scientific book published. The title: Design of Transistorized Circuits For Digital Computers. The event brought a pleasant Hurry of fan mail and telephone calls. His son. Norman. 10. answered Ihe telephone the other day. The operator said it was a long dis tance call. Norman thus: Mom my, mommy, there's a call lor daddy from California. Maybe they want lo make a movie out of his book!" Medical Journal Offers Opinion LONDON (API - The British medical journal Lancet said today it Isn't a doctor's job to decide whether a statesman is fit to rule. "Decisions on litness to rule nust still be left to the people," the journal said. "If it became customary to refer such problems for medical adjudication we would not envy Ihe adjudicator." the editorial con tinued. "What terms of reference could we have? How can one esti mate the value of a leader with out being influenced by one's own opinion of his opinions?"

A westbound train can heave Into the station at 3 p.m. CST and leave at 2:05 p.m. MST and woe to the oas scnger who forgot to change his watcn. Occasionally a town will vote itself into another time zone. Port St. Joe and Apalachicola, Fla., did it recently, going from Central to Eastern Time and causing the time line to split Gulf uouniy. Syracuse, Kan.. (Mountain) talked about it a few years ago but decided against it because its stores, open an hour later, were attracting customers from places like Johnson (Central). As recently as April 7, folks in Lakin', Kan., voted not to shift from Mountain to Central. Lakin's Mayor Monte Canfield explained: "M o s t of the opposi tion to any time change comes from the farmers who like the situation as it is. - ' . "It gives them a chance to shop in nearby towns early in the day and then come to akin or Syra cuse later in the evening for im plement, parts and so forth." Besides, added the mayor, his son, Lanny, 10, wouldn't stand for any change, either. "Lanny is allowed to stay up after the 10:30 CST news program which gets him to bed by 9:30 Mat . it he nad to go to bed on CST he would miss some of his favorite programs. , So I have orders to vote for MST and I expect I will since that-is about the most logical ar gument that has been advanced yet." Cross-Filing Abolished By State Legislature Fowl-Eating Osmo Ocelot Shot By Berkeley Scientist SACRAMENTO, Calif. (API -Californians can kiss cross-filing goodbye. The Senate Thursday joined with the Assembly in voting to abolish the unique system which allows candidates to run on both party tickets in state primary elections. Senate aproval, 22-15i sent the legislation to Gov. Edmund G. Brown for his certain signature. The Democratic chief executive advocated repeal of cross-filing in his inaugural message. The Assembly passed the bill by, a wide margin. A reform Legislature installed cross-filing 46 years ago. It long had helped ' incumbents win re flection In the primary. Until re cently, most offices were held by Republicans. Repeal of the law has been a fix ture in the state Democratic plat form. This is the first Democratic Legislature since 1898. Democrats snapped up all but one state office last- fall. The overturn of cross-filing will mean the end of widespread dou ble nominations in state prima ries. ReDublicans will be able to vote only (or' Republican candi dates -and Democrats for Demo cratic. Final debate touched off' warn ings, and denials, that removal of cross-filing would lead to party bossism. It also developed an un usual political situation. The Senate majority, leader. Hugh M. Burns (D-Fresno), led opposition to the bill which the Assembly majority leader, Wil liam A. Munnell (D-Montebello), introduced for the governor. Burns declared repeal of cross filing would restore party bosses. He argued it would deny voters freedom of . choice in selecting party candidates.. Under the present system, he told the Senate, "California has been singularly free of party ma chinations that go on in other states." Sen. James A. Cobey (D-Mer- HOLDS IT WELL AYR, Scotland (UPD A three- year - old champion heifer who charged a crowd here Wednesday was given a fine old Scottish rem edy for the quieting of frightened cows half a bottle of scotch whisky. It didn't work. . A veterinarian administered another sedative by needle. ccd), guiding the bill through the senate, said it would get- rid of a "completely illogical and hypo critical process. Primaries, he said, are party affairs, - and it doesn't make sense to let members of the op posite party run on your ticket. Munnell hailed final passage of his bill as a long stride toward more responsible government in California. El Salvador Talk Given Mrs. Blanche Bcldraine, Pan American chairman of the Amer ican Legion Auxiliary, presented a program on El Salvador at the April 21 meeting. Her talk dealt with transporta tion. A network of good paved roads help trade and tourist indus tries, the speaker said.

(CASEY) WARD SAN FRANCISCO (AP-l-Osmo was an ocelot. You might say he loved club-footed chickens not only unwisely, but too well. If that shakes you we re sorry. This -story really doesn't have a plot, but it does have some inter esting people. It has the Shah of Iran, a pretty airline stewardess, a sad scientist plus mass murder at midnight and sudden vengeance. And. of course. Osmo. a catlike Brazilian with golden fur and sharp teeth who loved to roam at night. The Shah presented usmo to Miss Ellen Forseth last year in appreciation for her services on Pan American during his visit here. Miss Forseth made a pet of Osmo but needed an ocelot-sitter on her overseas flights. Last' week she left him in care of Ray Moser, a friend across the bay .in Berk eley. Osmo escaped. Enters now the sad scientist: Dr. Lewis W. Tay lor, professor of poultry hus bandry at the University of Cali fornia. He has spent more than five years developing club-toed white Leghorn chickens. Taylor said club toes 'show the chicken has an inherent lethal disease. He has been breeding them for club-toes to learn how to eradicate the ailment. Sunday night something got into Prof j- Taylor's genetic research plant and slaughtered 14 of his highly prized chickens. Plant su pervisor Noburo Inouye was asked to lie in ambush for the invader. With a small caliber rifle, he bagged the intruder with one shot Tuesday night. It was Osmo. The adventurous Brazilian feline's body was taken to the university's vertebrate museum for , taxi dermy. ' It's doubtful that a small bronze plate could report Osmo's tragic story. But Prof. Taylor is relieved. "I wasnt wiped out," he said. "We still have , about-14 club-toed ' white leghorns left." Miss Forseth? out of the city and presumably unaware of Osmo's fate. , NW Evangelist To Hold Services The Rev.
