Q In a recent column concern
ing creams lor dry skin, you ad
vised oily creams rather than
vanishing creams. Aren't vanish
ing creams more softening?
A Almost any kind of cream
applied to the skin will help to
soften it. The soitemng is ac
complished by getting water back
into the skin. Oily creams pre
vent evaporation of perspiration
from the skin and permit rehy
dration from within. In the case;
of vanishing cream, some mois
ture in the cream may be ab
sorbed bv the skin or, if put on
thick enough il. too, may dam
back the perspiration. Kor the
best procedure to suit your spe
cial needs, consult your doctor.
Q You said in ' a recent col
umn that taking adrenal hnrmone
over a long period of time
rendereda person's adrenal
glands sluggish, and made him
dependent on hormones supplied
from outside the body. My uter
us and ovaries were removed six
years ago. I take an estrogen
tablet every day. I get very un
comfortable if I skip the tablets.

Car Found
In Eugene
A car stolen from Klamath
Falls March 25 was located aban
doned in Eugene over the week
end and two men and a teen-age
girl admitted breaking into the
Roosevelt Elementary School,
Feb. 22, after they were arrested
by Medford authorities Friday on
similar charges.
City police said Jack L. Allen,
.1-1, and Melvin E. Snodgrass. 22.
Ashland, probably were involved
in several school break-ins in
Klamath Falls, but they had brok
en into so many schools in a three
state area they couldn't differ
entiate one school from another
during questioning.
Oregon State Police also ques
tioned the pair concerning break
ins at several county schools, but
although the pair readily admit
ted many school break-ins in the
area they couldn't pinpoint spe
cific schools.
Apparently only some canned
luna fish and milk were taken in
Hie Roosevelt School theft.
A KIM Chevrolet pickup owned
by Clay Thomas, 2942 Altamont
Drive, was returned after the ve
hicle was discovered by Eugene
city police abandoned in that city.

A You do not say in what
way skipping your tablets makes
you feel bad, but if you were to
stop taking them entirely you
would have what is known as a
"postoperative change of life,"
with its accompaning symptoms
Your doctor should arrange for
you to taper off gradually.
Q I was interested in your ar
ticle about eye banks. Our daugh
ter has cerebral palsy. Her third
cranial nerve is affected. With
her right eye she can only dis
tinguish light from dark. Could
I exchange eves with her in or
der to make her life more com
plete?
A The retina is the ending of
the third cranial nerve. It is this
network of fibers that receives
visual images. Your unselfish of
fer wouldn't work. There is no,
way to transplant a retina or a
whole eye. Only those persons
whose blindness is due to clouding
0 the cornea are benefitted by a
corneal transplant. The corneas
are taken only after the death
of the donor.
Q In your column on constipa
tion you advised against taking
laxatives. Does this apply to Meta
mucil? A Psyllium hydrophilic mucil
loid (Metamucill is a non-irritating
preparation that gives soft
hulkiness to stools. Persons who
have such an irritable bowel that
they can't tolerate any roughage
in fruit and vegetable form may
he benefitted by the "smoothage"
of this substance. It can also be
safely used by elderly persons
greatly troubled by constipation,
who find that even enormous
amounts of vegetable and fruit
are inadequate to give a normal
bowel movement.

The increase in cattle thefts in
the Klamath Basin in recent
months has forced cattlemen to'
take action to stop the thieving
especially of baby calves still
runnuig with cows.
Seventy five cattlemen met
March 29 to consider ways o(
combatting the thefts that are
causing heavy losses to cattle pro
ducers, according to Norman Ja
cobs, president of the Klamath
Cattlemen s Association.
While reports of tliefts of all
types of cattle have increased
the greatest loss has been in
calves.
Cattlemen voted unanimously to
establish a SI. 000 reward in anv
one case, to be paid to any per
son or persons furnishing infor
mation leading to the arrest and
conviction of any person (or steal
ing cattle from a member of the
Cattlemen's Association.
The association will provide
funds from the present treasury
and from current dues to pay thelward will lie announced as soonl The association has also urgedlture to intensive activities in in-
reward. Tlie provisions of the re-as details can be worked out. the State Department of Agrirul-lvesticatine reported theft cases.

Khrushchev
On Vacation
MOSCOW ( UPD Soviet Premi
er Nikita Khrushchev vacationed
on the Black Sea today with no
indication of being in political hot
water as reported abroad.
Veteran Western observers
strongly discounted speculation
outside t h e Soviet Union that
Khrushchev may be losing an in
ternal struggle for Kremlin lead
ership. The "Khrushchev in trouble"
reports were stirred by an article
in the Italian Communist party
newspaper Unita which claimed
Moscow was in a "delicate politi
cal moment" because of last fall's
Cuban crisis, farm problems, cul
tural disputes and the rift with
Red China.
'American authorities on Soviet
affairs in Washington said it was
obvious that the Kremlin had
problems, but they doubted Khru
shchev's joh was in danger.!
Unita's article, published Sun
day, was followed Monday by re
ports from the Italian news serv
ices A.R.I, and the Agenzia Italia
and the Paris newspaper Aurore.
All three quoted unidentified Com
munist sources as saying there
was a Kremlin power struggle
threatening Khrushchev's position.

MOUNT SHASTA-The Mount
Shasta elementary school girls'
chorus, directed by Mrs. Sinobia
Manlcy and accompanied by
Mrs. Anne Messenger, received
a number one rating at the coun
ty music festival held in Mc-
Cloud last week. Under the direc
tion of John Day, the Sisson band
was awarded a superior minus.
Dr. Ferrell Madsen of Chico
Slate College judged the festival
and used a different method than
had been previously used to
judge the contestants. Each se
lection was tape Recorded, and
at the same time Dr. Madsen
gave his praise or criticism of
how the number was being per
formed. The tapes were later
mailed to each school participating-
,
One of the numbers sung by
the chorus, the "Lord's Prayer."
was arranged in three parts by
the girls as a class project, with
the assistance of Ms. Manlcy.
Forty-seven eighth grade girls
from Sisson School are members
of the chorus.
Constitution Victory
Called Romney Triumph
DETROIT (UPI Gov. Gcorgegale lo the conslitutional conven-
Romney refused today to accept
as a personal triumph Michigan
voters' adoption of the state con
stitution he helped draft.
But National Republican Chair
man William E. Miller found
praise for the darkhorse GOP
presidential possibility and said
the victory Monday, despite its
narrowness, showed Romney had
turned the Democratic stronghold
of Wayne (Detroit) County into a
competitive two-party area.
The document won largely be-
cause of a tremendous outpouring'
of "yes" votes in the governor's
home county, Oakland, and sur
prising support in Wayne.
With 5,200 of the state's 5.209
precincts reporting the tally was:
yes 807,847, no 796,223.
