Hollywood CavaIcalle Helps

The stars, too, are casual and

ROCKY MOUNT, N. C.-Russell
Herring is one referee the hoop
sters don't hand any backtalk.
Even if they try, they don't get
to mid court-because Russelfs a
deaf-mute.
That doesn't stop him from being
lone of the best basketball referees

court officials signals are made

affliction makes him adept at that
sort of thing.
Good At Lip Reading
But woe be the hoopSter who
faces Herring and makes uncom-
plimentary remarks about the ref
ereeing. Although he can't hear
he's pretty doggone good at lip
lreading-as more than one unfor-
tunate number, who's had tech
meal foul called on him, can tes-
tify.
He doesn't miss a thing that
happens on the court. The noise,
of course, doesn't bother him. In
fact he doesn't let anything bother
him.
He's one of the most popular Of
ficials in this part of the state and
his signs, especially the one for
hipping which Russell makes look
like hula dance, brings whoops
of delight from the crowd.
The. only things. that bothered
him when he started his officiating

He's solved the first problem by

Ford Says pIasiits
Material Of Future

The importance of plastics in the
postwar is to some degree antici-
pated by the work of that peren-
NAL investigator, Henry Ford, who
says of his efforts: IF we have ever
made any real contribution in a
social sense, it is-and will be-
through our research and perfec-
ton of the use of plastics in in
dustry."
BY way of demonstration of its
possibilities, Mr.. Ford's research
department has already achieved
fine textured wearing apparel, felt
for hats and an excellent milk
which cannot be detected from the
genuine product, all from soy beans
Finest example of the soybean re-
search is the experimental plastic
car, with the entire body, the seat
covers, steering Wheel, dash, win
dows and many other parts made
Of plastics.
Says Ford: "Plastics came just
in time. The modern automobile
fould not have been possible with
out its use. 1t forms the insulation
we need to hold back the electrical
voltage up to $4,000 volts. We
couldn't make the distributor out
of metals, for metals are conduct
ors."
| AS a revolutioniser of the auto
mobile industry, Ford further
points out that when plastics are
used you pull out finished pro-
duct, which makes many short cuts
possible and even eliminates some
painting"
! AS summary of its usefulness
to society, William Stirger, in an
article appearing in the February
issue of Rotarian magazine, stresses
that plastics may be either "a SUBJ
stitutes for superior materials but
adequate in wartime, ca alternates,
as good as the displaced materials
but more costly. or CD replace
ments. which are superior to, and
cost less, than the materials they
displace. 1t is this category that
Ford and his soy bean specialist
Robert Boyer, as well as other re-
search workers, expect the greatest
future strides for plastics, and the
day may well come when Americans

The Museum of the Plains In.
dian has been open to the public
a little less than two years. John
c. Ewers. Curator, recalls that
when he was Acting Superinten-
dent of Ocmulgee National Mon
ument near Macon, Georgia. a
fascinating complex of archaeo-
logical sites of prehistoric ard
historic Southeastern Indian cul-
lures, it was not until three and
oae-balf years after the-park was
opened that visitors from all of
states of the Union had been
registered. Oddly enough. i n
that instance, he said, Montana
was the last state to be recorded.
During the month of May 521
visitors from 20 states and three
other countries registered at the
Museum O f the Plains Indian.
Or these 10 per cent were from
out of the state. The total is 76
per cent that of May last year
when % states were represented.
This May the museum had its
first visitor from Russia. Canada
and Alaska were also represent
