To the Editor Of The Star:
Let us for the time being overlook segreea-

residential districts and focus our attentloh

riage.

A. Wallace, in his race for the highest pohtlcal
honor within our gift, at a recent revolutionary

Union Against Reds

To the Editor Of The star
I. am in complete accord with you on your
editorial headed Berlin Protest" a,'f
Why should we keep on dilly -dallying with
the Reds? This sort Of policy has proven
fruitless IN the past except possibly with the
Japs when we gave them time to unite the
American people as never before at Pearl
Harbor.
Are we waiting for the Reds to execute q
Pearl Harbor? Seems to me 1t is time we
called their hand in Berlin. They have us
very we'll united already. They don't accuse
us Of war mongering" nowadays. That is
significant J. r. BARNHILL.
Disasrees With Editorial on Taft
To the Editor Of The Star
May I respectfully suggest that your edi-
torial, political Mountain" was both uncalled
for and unfair?
Apparently the author had before him Sen
ator Taft's statement at the time 1t was writ
ten. That made clear the fact that the Sen
ator was not acting as an individual but Is
a member of the committee delegated by Cong
ress to watch the operation Of the TIL law.
and member Of the representative body
charged with the duty of filing impeachment
charges against officials guilty Of malfeasance
or msfeasance in Office.
Frankly, I'm Republican, but did just q
little bit to keep the Senator from being the
Republican nominee. Nevertheless, that
doesn't prevent one from respecting the Sen
ators ability and integrity. Your editorial Is
couched in such language as to discredit both
his ability and integrity. plus his intelligence.
You owe it to the public to qualify your un-
wise statements r. e. WENZEL.
Government Employment Not So Bad
To the Editor OF The Star:
Everyone who works for the Government is
not victim of discrimination. Everyone is
not denied the right to answer charges against
him. All Government workers are not under
paid. From reading some complaints and
listening to the drivel put out by the radio,
one would be led to believe that working
for the Government was a pretty poor way
of scraping along. Let the objectors and gripers
remember: is days sick leave, 26 days snnual
leave group disqualification, retirement sys-
tenn unequalled in any industry or by any
privately purchased retirement plan, the most
beautiful city in the world to live in. Let the
gripers live in SCOT in Pittsburgh, the burned
rubber smell of Akron, or the caves OF New
York and the subways and then come back to

Women Left BaubIes
I'm Baths Of Ancient
Greece, Ruins Show

ATHENS, May (CDN
Women left things around the
bathroom 1900 years ago-just as
they do today.
The other day Margaret Crosby,
an archeologist, OF Minneapolis,
was digging in the ruins Of the an
cient Athenian market place-the
Agora. She dug up q Roman style
bath house from the 4th century
AID. In one of the drains she found
five pieces Of jewelry-which looked
as If they were purchased in Car
tiers last week.
Miss Crosby believes some care
less Athenian woman took of her
jewels while bathing and put them
on the side of the tub. Maybe
while the woman was shampooing
her hair-she got some soap in her
eyes, groped for a towel, and
knocked the jewels down the drain.
One Of the jewels is a magnificent
earring. On it a mans head is
carved. To confuse matters. the
mans head is walking on chicken
legs.
Torso of Statue Found.
The jewels are but a few of the
remarkable discoveries made in the
Agora during the last few weeks by
members of the American School for
Classical Study.
The most exciting discovery (from
an artistic standpoint) was the torso
OF statue of an athlete found built
into tomb. Eugene Vanderpool of
Morristown, N. j., who uncovered the
statue, doesn't expect to find the
legs, arms or head.
The statue, 1t is believed, was
done by one of the students OF
Polyclitus, one of the great sculp-
tors Of antiquity. Apparently, even
in those days, good artist wasn't
appreciated until years after he had
starved to death in a garret. For
although made in the 5th century
B.C.-the statue kicked around
Athens 800 years until the Sd CEN
tury AID. when some one used it as
a building block.
Ruins Piled on Each Other.
The Agora sits snugly at the foot
OF the cliff which houses the Acrop-
oils, a strong defense point in the
old days. Throughout civilization
the Greeks kept building on top OF
previous generations, until today
the ruins are piled on like q Dag
wood sandwich.
This makes the job extremely
difficult, for in the same sewer you

Iran Left With Taste
For Chocolate Bars,
Cigarettes by GIs

TEHRAN, Iran, July 10 (CDN).-
The American Army's Persian Gulf
Command evacuated Iran three
years ago, but it's influence seems
destined to last indefinitely.
Street vendors in Tehran are
still well-stocked with commodities
left behind by the American Army
tooth paste, shaving cream, shoe
polish, combs. soap, flash lights and
air mail envelopes printed in Eng
lish.
American cigarettes, are on sale
in makeshift stands on almost every
street corner. The stale wartime
variety, packed in gray paper with
out cellophane, are openly displayed
for sale at 30c a pack.
Chewing Gum Manufactured.
Postwar American cigarettes,
smuggled in from Kuwait on the
Persian gulf, are hidden under
piles of other merchandise. You
can buy them, though, for SOC a
pack.
Iranians, as result of the war,
have become so accustomed to
chewing gum and eating chocolate
bars that local factories are now
manufacturing passable limitations
of both Wrigley and Hershey prod
ucts.
The new local chewing gum is
known as "Wriggler's," the new
local chocolate bars as "Hepshey's."
United States Methods Adopted.
American packaging and adver-
tising methods have taken hold to
such an extent that a local yog-
hurt factory is now producing
its curdled milk product in distinc-
tive clay pots sealed with wax paper
stamped in colors with its trade
mark.
The new brand of yoghurt is a
pun on Mickey Mouse, who is as
popular in the Orient as he is
everywhere else 1t is called Mick
ey Mast"-"mast" being the Per-
sian word for yoghurt-and the
name is always accompanied in ad-
vertisements by the Weu-known fig
ure of the mouse.

Watkins Win Over Union

Watkins High Schools basket
ball team defeated Union 1896
Friday night in one of the best
games of the young basketball
season. Watkins jumped to a l2-4
lead in the first quarter, but
Union came back to outscore the
Millcreek Township team 1876 in
the second period and tie the
score 17-17 at the half. From there
on in it was thriller in every
respect. Watkins finally took the
lead in the closing minutes as
two Union regulars went out on
fouls.
1t was a game in which every
boy gave all he had for victory.
The margin of victory is clearly
indicated by the fact that Wat
kins made good on 19-of 80 tries
from the foul line. Union made
four more field goals than the
winners. Smith, Unions s. 10','
forward was high scorer for the
evening with Is points. Francis
Wade made II for Watkins. If
these two teams meet in the
tournament next February, some
real fireworks are assured. Union
