HEARING CHECK CHICAGO (UPD A loss of hearing is a leading factor con tributing to child maladjustment reports the Hearing Aid Industry Conference. It says recent tests among juvenile delinquents in Los Angeles showed 32 per cent suf fering from hearing impairments. The conference urged parents to take their children for hearing check-ups annually. COUNCIL HILL. Okla. IUPD- A working cowboy arriving from the wild and woolly West ot century ago would find things just about the same at a mod ern-day cattle roundup. There would be a few changes. of course. Today's cowboys have been known to travel in jeepi and some even check fences with those funny-looking things called helicopters. The cattle are different. They're fat and not as tough as the long horns of days gone by. But when it comes to working them at roundup time, it's just like the Old West. No Better Way Dick Shannon, tall ramrod ol the Slash S. Ranch in eastern Oklahoma, says there's a good reason. "We do it like they did it in the old days because there's just no better way to handle cattle," he says. "A roundup is the easiest way to get an accurate count and check condition of stock." For the Slash S cowpuncher, roundup means the day begins before dawn and ends after the sun goes down. The pay is $90 a month, bunk and beans. Cattle are handled with the same equipment and techniques developed centuries ago by 'I AM' Youths Plan Conclave DUNSMUIR The youth con clave of the I AM activity is underway at Shasta Springs just north of Dusmuir. This summer conference of the followers of the religious movement headed hy Mrs. G. W. Ballard brings I AM students from all over the United States and several foreign countries.

But a rifle or pistol won't be too far away in case of coy otes or rattlers. The rest of their rope isn't used as much as it was in the old days due to con-! struction of holding and branding chutes. "But when you need a rope buddy, you really need it," says Shannon, who grew up in cattle country and wouldn't trade places with anybody. Most cowboys feel the same way. They agree "working cat- tie" is the only life, Bly Area Closed In Fremont Forest LAKEVIEW - No entry per mits are being written for Boul der Creek and Meryl Creek areas on the Bly Ranger District of the Fremont National Forest, accord ing to this week's report.

Danny bolted from a dentist's chair after a bib was fastened around his neck Tuesday after noon to prepare him for a tooth extraction. The boy bolted across two roads and into a woods. Search crews were called. A family living in the woods said the boy passed their house fairly flying. After a two-and-one-half hour hunt, Danny was found crouched in the grass of a median strip between two highways. When he spotted his would-be rescuers, he bolted for the woods again but the rescue squad members proved faster on their feet. When last seen, Danny's father was taking him home, the den tist's bib still around the boy's neck. The Nobel Peace Prize was not awarded for 19515.
