Britain Concludes Trade Agreements With Is Countries
By Tom Williams)

LONDON, (P)-Harold Wilson, president of the board of trade, announced today that Britain has negotiated tariff agreements with fifteen nations, including { h e United States.
 Details of the new trade pacts, he told the Commons, would be published simultaneously in the various countries in about three weeks.
 We have been particularly con- cerned to secure reductions in the tariffs of other countries, includ- ing the United States, which would provide an immediate op- portunity of increasing our dollar exports" Wilson said.
 He declared the United States had made concessions in return for concessions which we consider equivalent in terms of the trade thereby opened to uS."
 The new trade pacts will be in cluded in final act of agreement at the Geneva trade conference tomorrow, Wilson disclosed, add ing:
 "I have given special attention to the need for the easier access of colonial products to the United States market.

Drink; See Lizard; Sue Bottling Co.

LOS ANGELES (P)-Two mar ried couples assert that ever since they mixed a drink known as a "MoscoW mule" their dreams have been troubled with visions of mules and lizards which leer at them from the necks of ginger beer bottles"
 The fOursome has no complaint about the Moscow mule, as such, but in a suit filed in superior court yesterday they contended that a very live lizard or salamander" popped out of a ginger beer bottle while they were making the drinks with ginger beer, vodka and lime juice last Sept. 10.
 All four claimed in the suit that they became violently nauseated and have been unable to sleep properly since. MT. and Mrs. George Horsman and MT. and Mrs. Marvin White, asking Sl0,0O0 damages, filed the action against the Cock n Bull Products, Inc, and Arrowhead Beverage Co.,, de scribed as bottlers and distributors of the ginger beer.

Dr. Leo J. Gehrig To Take Course In Chest Surgery

pr. Leo J. Gehrig, who was loaned by the U. s. Public Health Service to the Territorial depart ment of health as acting director of the division of tuberculosis con- trol, was selected by the public health service for a tWo-year course in chest surgery.
 He left Alaska recently for Bos- ton, Mass, where he will become the assistant to Doctor Oberholt, Well-knOWn chest surgeon. The fellowship will enable Doctor Gehrig to serve a tWo-year resi- dency in chest surgery at medical centers around Boston.
 Dr. Gehrig arrived in Alaska in January, 1946, and built up the tuberculosis division of the health department. His loss is keenly felt by the Territorial health depart ment. According to commissioner of health Albrecht, Dr. Gehrig was more instrumental than any one in the establishment of a worthwhile tuberculosis control program for the Territory. His energy" states Doctor Albrecht, "and his practical analysis of our serious situation were prime fac tors in the establishment of an eff fective tuberculosis program"
 Doctor Gehrig'S successor has not yet been arrounced. Dr. Don aid J. McMinimy, tuberculosis consultant, is temporarily in charge of the work.

Soap Box Derby

Don't put off till tomorrow what
you can do today" Remember this old
copybook axium? Well, it has especial
meaning now because Of an event to
be held on July 80, which seems a
long time off, but will creep upon us
before we realize the terrific speed of
time.
And the event? Why, it's the Soap
Box Derby. Last year it created more
interest among boys between eleven
and fifteen than anything else for
years before. This year it is destined to
increase in interest, particularly be-
cause it will have passed the expert
mental stage and become a fixture in
the life of Wilmington boyhood.
Again, it will be jointly sponsored
by the Star-News and the Raney Chev-
rolet Company. There will be some
change in the rules nothing diff
cult - and the entry list inevitably
will be increased. On Friday evening the
fifty youngsters who took part in last
years Derby will be guests of the
sponsors at the Y. M. C. A., when all
matters of interest will be explained
and a film Of the last Akron finals will
be shown. Thereafter rule books and
general instructions will be available
to all boys wishing to take part this
year.
The reason for getting under way so
early is obvious. The boys must build
their own cars and strictly observe the
specifications. This takes time. The
sooner they know what they must do.
the quicker they can be at their task,
and the better their product.
A continuous stream of information
will appear in the Star-News for the
benefit of contestants. Watch the
papers - sign up early - start work
soon - remember the winner of the
local event will have a free trip to
Akron and a chance to win the master
prize.

Let US stop for g moment to

Below the thin upper atmosphere
is heavier atmosphere; below
that, the water, which is heavier
than air; and below the water

The Book OF
Department: - The EARTH
THE EARTH'S LAYERS

We have Little frst-hs~A lnfor-
nation about the inside of the
earth, or the upper atmosphere.
Man has actually gone "A miles
up in the air, 2 miscs down in
the earth-that is all. The rest
he knows only from observations
and instruments.
Human beings cannot 60 very
high above the earth's crust, be-
cause the atmosphere DOR be-
comes thin - there is not
enough oxygen for us to breathe.
Nor can we go very deep in the
sea or in the rocks, for pressures
of water d rock become too
great for bodies TO support.
Nevertheless, by experiment, by
instruments, by calculations a n d
by inference, we have gained a
good idea of the nature Of the
earth's surface and its interior.
We divide the ball now into sew
eral parts or layers. The upper
most layer is a blanket Of gas,
completely surrounding h e solid
earth and held there by gravity.
This blanket We call the atmos-
phere, or air sphere.
Its composition varies; near the
ground, the air contains about
four parts of nitrogen to one OF
oxygen, plus n percent of argon,
and a little carbon dioxide and
other gases. The blanket of air
grows thinner as 1t extends up
ward; and the lighter gases are
more abundant in the higher
zones. Finally. the gases grow
lighter and thinner until, miles
above the ground, there is no at
mosphere at all, or so we believe.
Covering three : quarters of the
surface of the earth to an aver
age depth Of 2 IL miles, we find
a layer Of water. This is called
the hydrosphere (water sphere).
Il the surface of the earth were
perfectly even, without a bulge on
it, seas would completely cover
it. However, since the rocky
skeleton of h e earth has high
places and low places, the water
has accumulated in the basins
and left large land areas rising
