TU 4-4732 Working Itulcs 1 By FLOYD L. WYNNE Yesterday, we discussed 10 tips for bossing women. Today, let's talk about 10 sug gestions for bossing men. These are good whether they be adopted by a wife, a sweetheart, or a male or female boss. If you follow the 10 to the letter, you'll have every man you meet singing your praises. The 10 are these: ' 1. Every man is important. Treat him that way. He may be important only to his children and his creditors, but make him feel he's important to you and to the job. 2. A man is never wrong. He may be misguided, not be in pos session of all the facts, may not have thought of your particular angle, may have a different tact, but he's not wrong. Jn his mind, he's arrived at his view by the same processes you've arrived at yours. 3. A man has dignity. Never bawl him out in front of someone else. If he's to be dressed down, do it privately or you leave him no choice but to quit the job or lose his pride. 4. Use praise carefully. If it's lavish, he suspects something is wrong, and if there's no praise When he thinks he merits it, he becomes disgusted. Praise should be used only when a good job is done. ' 1 5. Never make him ask for a deserved raise. He may always think he's worth nwc money, and he may be, but when you feel he merits a raise, see that he gets it without having to plead for it. 6. Don't dismiss his ideas quickly. If he comes up with an Idea, explore it with him so that both of you determine its worth and its workability. 7. Leave something to his own initiative. No need to tell him ev ery little detail of the job. If you have to wet-nurse him, he'll prob ably goof off when you're not around. Give him the outlines of the job, and let him get it done in his own way. it). Keep working rules to a mini mum. People work belter when they can work in their own man ner. !). Handle your criticisms care fully. Avoid personalities, and con fine criticisms to the job being done. Before you criticize make certain that they are both justi fied and constructive. 10. Lose your temper occasion ally, but not your composure. But lose your temper only when it will do some good. .Now, those are the ideal id tips for bossing men. I didn't say those were the 10 that I followed, or could follow, those are just the ideal to shoot for over the long pull. There are only three things I can do with those 10 rules. First, I can give my wife a copy, hop ing she'll live up to them. Second, I can call item No. 5 to the attention of my boss, and third, I can burn the 10 rules, hop ing that no one in the news room reads the editorial page. Now, 1 have tho suggestion that 10 tips should be drawn up on how the employes should treat the boss. Not a bad idea. ( ni'd (li.-iEiH's By FLORENCE JENKINS House rules abound for most Card games, but Hoyle is pretty well established as an authority The Association of American Playing Card Manufacturers, 420 Lexington Avenue, New York City, provides a free answering service to questions on rules of any card game. . According to the Association, it is a matter of historical accident that four tens do not constitute ai meld in Pinochle. In earliest times, when groups of cards were given scoring value, these scores were limited to tho picture cards. The distinction be tween the picture cards and the numbered cards goes back to the Tarot pack, having 22 larots (pic ture cards that were permanent trumps) and 58 suit cards. In the game of Tarocchini. only trumps had' counting value. When the tarots were eliminated from the pack, their role in melding was taken by the picture suit cards. The 56-card pack survived for many years, especially in Ger many, but eventually all countries followed the French reduction to 52.. We have no clear picture of the appearance of the four extra cards. In Germany, the number bf "top cards" in the suit was preserved. despite the elimination of one "picture" rank, by elevating the 10 to rank next to the ace. But this compensation did not go so far :, to recognize a meld of four non picture cards. And, of course, the Pinochle deck became double Entered as second class matter at the post oflice at Klamath Falls. Ore., on August 20. 1906, under act of Congress.

Suppose the increased popularity of the stall shower washed them out? lights By JAMES MARLOW Associated Press News Analyst WASHINGTON (API The nine Supreme Court justices provided a mixed picture this year in the one field where left-right tags are most glibly applied: individual rights against government rights. At times they split, at times they voted solidly. In two of the major contempt cases the justices split 5-4, in three others the vote was 9-0. In still another it was 4-4, with one justice not voting. The major cases involved Wil lard Uphaus and Lloyd Baren blatt. To understand what hap pened in both, two previous cases must be considered. . In 11156 the court threw out the conviction of Steve Nelson, an ad mitted Communist, who was found guilty in a Pennsylvania state court of violating the state's sedi tion law. The court said that, since sedi tion against the United Stales is a national problem, federal sedi tion laws supersede state sedition laws. But the court said a slate could prosecute for sedition against the state. This year the courl tackled the case of Uphaus, director of the New Hampshire World Fellow ship Center which described itself as a pacifist organization. He refused to answer certain questions of the New Hampshire attorney general who, under auth ority of his Legislature, was in vestigating communism. For re fusing to answer, Uphaus was convicted of contempt, Justice Clark, one of those vot ing for Nelson in 1956, this year1 wrote the opinion turning down the appeal of Uphaus, He cited the Nelson decision as not for bidding a state to prosecute for sedition against itself. So, he reasoned,' since a state can prosecute for sedition, it has the right to investigate sedition. Thus the court was not reversing the Nelson decision but narrowing it. In 11157 the courl upheld John T. Watkins, convicted of contempt tor refusing to answer certain questions-of the House Committee on Un-American Activities, which was investigating communism in labor. lie raised the objection of pert inency, asking how the questions asked him had anything to do with the subject of the investigation. The courl backed him, saying he never got a clear answer and the questions were not pertinent. Then this year the court ruled against Barcnblatt, a college teacher convicted of contempt (or refusing to answer some questions of the same committee, which was' investigating communism in ed ucation. ' Barcnblatt, in his appeal, re called the Watkins pertinency angle by complaining the ques tions asked him were not perli SHORT RIBS W V But the court said whereas Wat- kins directly raised the question of pertinency in his case, Baren- blatt didn't and, if he wanted to use nonpertinency as his excuse requirements for cars, covering for not answering, he should have such things as seat belts and pad done so directly. jded instrument panels. And that's The court went further, savinel'he direction in which the sub- the committee investigation was!comnlittee seemed to be driving legitimate, and its purposes were woll understood. It added that in this case the interests of the coun try were involved and thus sub oidinated an individual's interest. Justice Harlan, who had voted for Watkins but against Barcn blatt, wrote the majority opinion. It left open many questions of interpretation. No doubt the court will be confronted with similar cases, looking for loopholes and clarifications. In the Nelson case the vote was 6-3 for him; it was 6-1 for Wat kins. In the Uphaus case the vote was 5-4 against, and 5-4 against Barenblatt. In three other contempt convic tion cases the nine justices stood solidly together, 9-0, for the de fendants. One involved a labor leader who refused to give a Senate commit tee investigating communism a list of union members. This deci sion had no special meaning. The court ruled in his favor on a tech nicality. Another was the case of a Vir ginia Quaker who wouldn't answer a state legislative committee's questions about his connection with inter-racial groups. The court upheld him on Ihe ground the pur pose of the committee's investiga tion was not clear. This was an echo of the Watkins case. In the third the court freed three Ohioans who, the justices said, had been misled into refus ing to answer by a slate com mittee which was investigating communism and asking the ques tions. On a technicality the court split 4-4 in upholding the conviction of a fourth Ohioan sentenced for re fusing to answer questions from the same Ohio committee. .And finally, the court split 5-4 in turning down the appeal of a New York garment maker who refused to answer, although pro mised immunity, the questions of a grand jury investigating rack eteering. OiikIi I'ad By FRANK ELEAZER WASHINGTON (UPD- They've got a crash pad now so absorbent it will stop an egg traveling 55 miles an hour without cracking it. And the question was, why won't this pad do the same thing for our skulls? It will, said Dr. Horace E. Campbell, who works on matters like this for the American Medi cal Association. He said the only problem is to gel the auto indus try to Install the stuff on the in strument panels of all new cars. Dr. Campbell said the number one health problem today count ing bolh deaths and disabilities is not cancer or heart disease or polio. It is automobile accidents. He was among a number of witnesses before a House subcom mittee which is seeking advice on a cure. Rep. Abraham Mutter (D-N.Y.) said he's heard of cases where a wheel (ell off a new car, or the steering gear pulled out by the roots. His prescription was a law under which, as I got it, new cars couldn't be driven until road tested 100 miles. The subcommit tee seemed to think Multer's law might be hard to apply. Rep. Charles E. Bennett 'D-Fla.l said put governors on our cars, so they can't go faster, say, than 80 miles an hour.

Itep. Kenneth A. Roberts ID .la., the subcommittee chairman proposed to let the Bureau of Standards set up federal safety "I regret to say that there is a certain air of indifference, a so what attitude on the part of many who should be concerned," Roberts said. Dr. Campbell, who is vice chair man of the AMA's committee on deaths and injuries from auto accidents, said the AMA for years has been badgering the auto mak ers to build more safely into their cars. He said the recessed steer- ling wheels and safety door latch es of l'J56 helped a lot, but that not much has been happening since. Dr. Campbell, who comes from Denver, said AMA research shows that seat belts and safety padding in cars would prevent many of the 38,000 deaths and 5,000,000 in juries suffered each year. He held up a small pad of something called ensolite. He said he laid some of this on the floor of the Colorado State Capitol and had a state patrolman drop an egg from the dome. The egg did not splatter, or even break. It bounced. "We think there might be an analogy between the egg and the human head," he testified. ""We think a human head traveling (as the egg) at 55 miles an hour might with impunity strike an auto surface covered with this." He said padded instrument pan els and sun visors ought to be standard equipment on cars, since head damage is involved in 70 per cent of the more serious crashes. And he brought in here another telling parallel with the egg. Once you break it, he said, a head is mighty hard to repair.

On June 24, an armadillo wand ered onto the tracks near Waxa hachie, 35 miles southeast of here, and derailed a small motor-drivqn car. A train supervisor, Bill Moore, was bruised severely. The same day, a rattlesnake slithered out of weeds near Chil dress, in the Texas Panhandle, and bit a section gang employe, F. A. Mitchell. He recovered.
