Valve In Heart
Echoes Romance
EDINBURGH. Scotland (AP
The plastic valve in Norman Al
len's heart echoed his line life.
When he danced with a pretty
girl, lis licks could be heard
across the room.
"If I'm excited, it gels very loud
nd last." explained the 27-year-
old clerk whose friends call him
Norman the Ticker."
"Sometimes," he said, "it
seems to keep lime lo luncs on
l.ic radio. csecial!y the cha-cha."
Allen got the plastic valc in an
operation to correct a heart ail
ment four years ago. Wnhout it.
he probably would have died.
Now 1 lead a completely nor
ma! hie and sometimes even play
loolball." Allen told a reporter.
'This constant lick-tuck is
embarrassing, though, especially
when you're out with a girl."
When he goes to the. movies, peo
ple si art looking for the hidden
clock.
But three months ago Allen met
a girl who understands the mes
sage of his lick-lock heart.
Now he's going lo ask his doc
tor it it's all rislil for him lo get
married.
Doctors have told Allen they
could replace his plastic ale
Willi a silent American lype. He
turned them down.
"Without this ucker. I'd just be
a nobody again," he said.

To Give Power To Majority
By FREDERICK K. POOLE

The indignant urban resident

rural legislators may have relief
in sight.
A United Press International
survey of all slate capitals today
showed a strong, if still inconclu

The fight for proportional rep

Dublin, Sunday night launched a
Northwest tour to help raise
money for the United Jewish
Appeal.
Some of the money will go lo

problems are laced by the Mid
dle Fast nation and Ireland.
"Both ot these little countries
have sultered persecution and
despair. Both are in need of eco
nomic development," said Bris -coo.
the first Jew ever elected
lord mayor of Dublin.
Ireland each year loses up lo
"itl.ooo of its most promising young
people. Briscoe said, because the
nation's economy cannot provide
adequate employment lor them.
'On the other hand. Israel has
the serious problem of trying to
expand its industrial potential as
rapidly as money and time per
mit in order to absorb the .lews
who arc being transplanted in
that country."

Strong Move
sions lo reapportion themselves
every ten years. Consequently in
many cases the farmers who
were in a majority when the
state constitutions were adopted
still control the legislatures even
though they now are in a minor
ity. For example, Alabama has not
affected reapportionment since
1001; Iowa since 1004; Indiana,
1:121; Nebraska, 1037; Oklahoma,
1010; North Dakota. 1031, Missis
sippi, 1800 Vermont not for at
least 40 years.
However, current action, some
times by civic groups, sometimes
by popular initiative, sometimes
by new power groups within the
legislatures themselves, is leading
lo change.
And as change comes, it points
generally to increased power lo
cities, lo the Democratic Parly
which controls so many cities, to
groups supporting liberal rctorm.
In the North and West this ap
parently means power for labor
unions and oilier groups associ
ated with the Democratic Party.
In the one-parly South it appar
ently means power for groups
within the Democratic Party
which take a more liberal view
on civil rights.
In Massachusetts the Legisla
ture, which recently went Demo
cratic after years under Republi
can control, is in the process of
reapportioning in a manner which
many observers feel will keep it
Democratic lor years to come.
Sometimes the rural-urban lines
are not so clear cut, but more
stales than not haic had legisla
tures representing a minority of
their citizens. As more and more
voters move lo central locations.
the inequity increases. And as it
increases, so do the moves such
as the current court tests to
wipe it out.
