its nearly circular shoreline. Located along the Skyline
Trail some two miles north of Fourmile Lake, Badger is a
L
popular destination ot hikers and fishermen durlnq the
middle of summer. Winter snows cover the area until
nearly the end of June.
Heavy Rain Routs Campers From Bed Rolls
MOSCOW UPII - "There is
plenty of bread for everybody
look for yourself, said
housewife as she pointed to row
upon row of white and black
bread in a Moscow bakery.
The woman was standing in a
long line and when she counted
the 24 shoppers ahead of her, she
sighed.
"There is always enough bread
and other things," she said. "But
these lines always lines for
everything."
To the casual observer in Mos
cow the sight of bread lines
together with the uproar in the
Soviet press about bread wastage
might indicate severe short
ages this winter. But this does
not appear to be the case. A
check of Moscow shops and bak
eries shows plenty of bread to go
around, even though some have
limited sales to one loaf to a
customer to prevent rush buying.
News of the poor grain harvest
led to a rash of scare food buy
ing in many Moscow stores
earlier, this month but this has
largely subsided. Even restau
rants are still "piling it high" de
spite government warnings to go
easy on bread.
The spotty wheat harvest has
however led to one shortage:
Flour for baking is unavailable
at retail stores in the Soviet capi
tal at present. The Soviet govern
ment has assured that there will
be adequate supplies this winter
as a result of wheat purchases
abroad.
As the housewife walked out
of the bakery clutching two
loaves of white bread they are
usually not wrapped in this coun
try she smiled at a Western
reporter, saying:
'Lining up to buy anything is
a habit with us. I must average
an hour a day on a line."
All over the capital city there
are lines and not only for bread
for watermelons (now in season
and very tasty), tomatoes, pota
toes, milk and cheese.
The main reason for the queues
Russians explain, is not only that
Soviet farms and processing plants
still don't turn out supplies fast
enough: It is also due to poor
distribution. That the Soviet Union
has insufficient retail shops was
admitted only this month by the
magazine "Soviet Trade."
The number of food shops in
fact, stores of any description
is only a fraction of the num
ber to be found in New York or
Kansas City, London or Paris. By
a rough estimate the number of
bakeries, groceries and fruit and
vegetable stores in Moscow can
be no more than a tenth of those
found in New York, for example.
Poor distribution is manifested
in other ways. The Communist
party organ Pravda reported on
Sept. 27 that hundreds of tons of
fresh tomatoes and other vege
tables were rotting in rail yards
outside Moscow due to transporta
tion foulups.
Such reports of spoilage come
almost daily and account for the
fact that on a given day in Mos
cow there may be a glut of
peaches or cucumbers while there
will be none of these items the
next.
The grain crop this year is poor
due to drought and bad weather
in the Ukraimain and Kazakhstan
virgin land bread basket areas.
Even so it is estimated that the
output of grain this year will
amount to approximately 140 mil
lion tons with the difference
between this figure and the 147
million tons produced in 1962 be
ing made up for by purchases
abroad.
The fact that an output of grain
almost equal to last year's yield
constitutes a grain shortage, West
ern experts here say, is due to
the increasing requirements of
rising population, and demand
from Russians to be better fed
along with being better supplied
with consumer necessities.

'JOPLIN, Mo. I UPII When
a youngster spins a black ball
down a bowling lane here, civic
leader's cheer it as a strike
against juvenile delinquency.
The teen-age rage in Joplin and
the neighboring towns of Webb
City, Mo., and Galena, Kan., is
to be a member of the Tri-City
Junior Bowling Association, About
40 per cent of the eligible youth
belong.
"Since, the association was
slarted two years ago," Woodson
Oldham, juvenile judge, said,
"juvenile delinquency has drop
ped noticably.
"Not one junior bowler has
ever been in juvenile court or ar
rested by authorities for ques
tioning." Boy S. Wood, superintendent of
Joplin schools, praised the pro
gram as a ycar-around boon to
extra curricular activities for
youth. He said it kept the chil
dren active and out of mischief.
Also, students who play hookey
are barred from bowling.
Harry Hoffman, a radio news
man (at KFSB', and Bill Mar
shall, president of local (PlaD
bowling lanes spearheaded the
movement. Marshall said the
junior bowling at his lanes was
the largest program at any sin
gle establislunent in the nation.
The association has 2.500 mem
bers and a school census shows
that there are only 6,200 persons
in the area who are eligible by
age 6 to IB to join.
Hoffman said the organization
was a bonanza he had not ex
pected. Parents now take their
children to neighboring areas
for tournaments, besides visiting
the lanes to w atch the youngsters
roll.
Strict rules are enforced. No
smoking is permitted. Use of vul
gar language, liquor and bad
sportsmanship are taboo.

While you wouldn't try to re
pair a roof on a cold day, don't
attempt it on a hot one either.
Pick a day that is warm and
calm, not windy.
If you are the sort who gets
dizzy on a stepslool. forget about
the weatner conditions and hire a
roofer.
Sloping roofs especially are not
for anyone but the sure-footed.
Flat roofs can be tackled by any
careful person.
You may want to repair your
roof because you've detected a
damaged shingle or a tear in the
rooting from the outside. Or you
may have noticed a leak from
within. If the latter is the case.
determine the exact point at
which the water is entering.
Where water drops to the atlic
floor Is not necessarily the point
at wtiich the roof U leaking. Trace
the leak back to its origin and
mark the spot. Look (or tight
coming through the roof. Push
a wire up through the spot so
lhat you tan locate H from out
side. Roof moit accessible to repair
is the flat roof, the type some
times found on garages, porches
and even homes. Generally
these are covered with roll roof
ing. Small cracks in the material
should be filled with asphalt ce
ment. Spread generously with a
trowel.
If you find a large crack, or a
bulging area that may soon split,
use a patch out from new roll
roofing. Make the patch larg
er than the area to be covered.
Widen the crack. Remove loose
pieces. Cut out the bulging sec
tion so that the surface will lie
flat.
Apply plenty of asphalt ce
ment, then press the patch into
place. Nail the edges with rust
proof nails and then apply more
roof coating to the edge, covering
the nail heads at the same time.
Most homes are cowed with
asphalt shingles. If one needs re
placing, carefully lift the flaps
of Die shingle above and pry up
the exposed nails.
(Avoid cold weather wtien work
ing with asphalt shingles especial
ly. Tncy become brittle and
break easily !
With the nails removed, slide
out the broken shingle and slide
a new one in place. Nail so that
the upper shingles will cover the
nail heads. As an added precau
tion, dab some asphalt cement
on the nail heads to check leak
ing. A damaged wood shingle should
be split and the pieces removed.
With a hacksaw blade cut the old
nails. Get a new shingle of the
proper width and slide it in place.
Then with another shingle or
block of w ood to protect the edges
of the new shingle, hammer it in
place. Secure with nails driven
through the space between the
shingles above. You can protect
the nails by sliding a piece of
copper or tin between the shingles
where the new ones are nailed.
Slate shingles are tricky to
