Survey DiseIoses That Glare
Is No. ] Foe Of Auto Drivers

SAN O.-Glare is the
No. / enemy of millions of motorists
who drive at night, according to a
nationwide survey Of the American
Automobile association.
1t characterized the existing situa-
ton in regard to automobile head
lights as a SERIOUS factor against
safety, courtesy and law"
The survey showed that one-third
of drivers at night either forget or
refuse to dim their headlights for
approaching cars.
Other findings revealed that auto
mobile headlighting, long made
quate, has not nearly kept pace in
safety and efficiency with other
automobile improvements. Hazards
of night driving have been increased
greatly by the large number of cars
with lights incorrectly adjusted or
focused, or with one or more BACKED

Birth Of Quintuplets in U. S.
Is Possible Statistics Show

NEW YORK.-Despite the odds,
some American mother most any
day may have quintuplets who sur
vive and grow.
BY amazing coincidence, there
have been at least three cases Of
quintuplets in the United States in
the last II years. Two occurred
only 20 months apart.
In each case, the quints were
born prematurely and none lived
more than half an hour. The chance
that all five will survive is extremely
thin.
What makes the births such a re-
markable coincidence is that, by the
rule that seems to apply to plural
births, q%uintuplets would be expected
once in about so million Sirthsl With
the United States birth rate around
three and one-half million annually,
quints would be expected, mathe-
matically, only once in Is years or
so.
The three cases of qpints so close
together, doesn't mean that this rule
is wrong, or that it won't happen
again soon. American quints could
be born tomorrow, or not for 100
years.
For the coincidence that brought
so many quints in so short a time
does not mean the rules were out
of order. They are not expected to
be applied to any n given year
even a few years. But taken over
decades they are valid. Then the
rates do not seem to vary much.

Prospeetor Who Found
Gold Mine Searches
For Peace and Quiet

MINNEAPOLIS. - John Laskow-
sky, SO, a prospector, came here
from Arizona to get away from the
people who, he said, have driven
him mad since he discovered a gold
mine that might yield SOS, 900 per
ton of ore.
He flew here with j. j. Bliss, a
Minneapolis metal products manu-
facturer who took pity on Laskow-
sky after watching a crowd of peo-
pie hound him about his gold mine.
THE poor guy was swamped by
curious people all the time" Bliss
said, $50 he left the stake guarded
by his son and a brother-in-law and
came here with me-"
Bliss said they were asking geolo-
gists from the University of Mime
seta and the University of Colorado
to go to the mine and examine it.
Laskowsky said he had been pam
ming gold in the Wickenburg, Ariz.,
area for Is years before he struck
it rich. He had found small de-
posts often and had supported his
family by panning them.
When he finally found the rich
lode, Laskowsky said, he packed out
$500 worth of ore on his back be-
cause eff anyone suspected what
was going on. I might have got
shot"
He showed p~hotostats Of the Wick
enberg Sun which quoted an ore
market owner as saying "Laskow-
sky's samples are the richest gold
ore I've seen in almost a lifetime
in the mining industry" He also
had documents headed Estate of Ari-
IONA Department of Resources" and
UNITED States Mint, San Francisco"
which reported that a $50 pound
sampling of ore yielded 81. 051.8 3 in
gold.
Generally, people figure that T
that pays even S25 a ton is worth
he said.
"I'm going back before long, but
those people out there have got to
let me alone. l just had to get away
from them. They wouldn't let me
sleep or eat or anything. They made
me pan gold while they watched"
