Aren't We Prepared?

The city newspapers seem to be
all fused-up about what Congress
should do with a selective service
lava draft, or some other way to
raise troops, in order that the Ma
tion might be ready to defend it
self in a damfoolish third World
War.
Congress has gone on record in
favor of a seventy-grOup air force
and now one writer asks: How
can a seventy-grOup air force car
ry the intendent military and Dip
lomatie weight of planes, and sup
ply the bases?
Well, let us suggest that while
the planes are being built that the
atom bomb might be kept in sight
that will be sufficient for all
needs over long period of time.
Aren't we prepared? We won the
second, World War with atom
bombs and if we. should happen to
try them out on Russia that Gov
ernment would surrender as fast
as other tyrantS ala Wnen the Sec
ond World War was brought to a
close.
There ought to be a better way
to maintain the man-pOwer of the
United States than through uni
versal military training and the
draft system. The youth of this
country can learn all that is neces-
sary about military drills righ
here at home without sending then
overseas to die on battlefe1ds.

Bel crossed up the interviewer
to this extent, however:
GO ahead and pick us to win the
championship if you want to. 1t
can't make things any worse.
They'll all be after us anyway. But
I do wish you guys would give Rote

had an opportunity to get his feet
on the ground
Mattey picks Texas to win the
title. Texas has a great line and
all the backs of 1948 except Bobby
Lane" he points out. blair Cherry
says he has boy who will ably
take Layne's place.. He's Paul
Campbell. Now there's the team to
pick"
Bell says the conference will
have its greatest football in his
tory. He should know what he's
talking about; he has been head
coach in this conference for 25
years-the longest OF any mentor
in the circuit at this time.
1--WE hit the peak last year." Bell
declares. This season we'll have
better teams at Baylor, Texas
Christian and Texas A. and NJ. and
the others will he just as good il
not better. Look for a great team a
Arkansas with Clyde Scott back foi
another year. Rice VIII be plenty

in the earth. Rich Jews were
placed in tombs above ground.
The burial was at shutdown of the
day the person died.
The science of embalming re-
ceived an impetus during the pc
riod of the Renaissance when
doctors began preserving bodies
for medical study. Frederick Rice,
a doctor of anatomy at the col
lege of Amsterdam, perfected
embalming, but his process died
with him. His work was describ-
ed as perfect. John and William
Hunter in England were the first
known to have conducted a school
on the subject.
Modern embalming began dur
ing the Civil war in America.
President Lincoln asked DR..
Thomas Holmes of New York to
create a system of preservation
so that bodies of deceased SOL
diers could be returned home.
Baggage masters of railroads
called a meeting soon after the
program was begun and from
that meeting came the funda-
mentals of the laws governing
preparation and transportation of
bodies.
The speaker described the
methods of burial of some of the
prehistoric Americans as well as
those employed by Indians when
white people came to America.
Harden closed by saying that
there is a continuous improve
ment today in methods and ma
terials.

crossing Boring Straight and &C
curing Alaska. DR.. Selkke paus-
ed to speculate on the situation
that would exist today had not
the United States purchased
Alaska, a transaction known at the
time as Stewards Folly. The in
vestment has paid off many times.
Russia turned southwark in
Asia after relinquishing Alaska,
and Japan waged a war with
China and another with Russia
as the powers Unanswered for
position, wealth and territory. In
World war II Korea was liberated
by American and Russian armies
and the country was partitioned
into northern and southern seq
ments.
Korea looks forward to the
time when both occupying armies
leave and it a return to its
w ancient way of life. Even
many of its leaders do not un-
derstand democracy. Adherence
to party and party control stand
above country with ruthless meas
ures to be melted to those who
do not join up. In that they
reminded DR.. Selke of some lead
ers he had met in Europe who,
when they learned hat he was
connected with school work in
civilian life, were astonished that
he did not lose his job with
changes in party control of gov
eminent.
Four out of five Koreans can
not read. Americans have done
wonderfully we'll in distributing
food and establishing order, and
over the years the American mis-
sionaries have contributed to edu-
cation and the raising of stand
ards. Virtually all the leaders
today owe at least part of their
education to the missionaries.
DR.. Selke told of hospitals he
had seen, to which people went
to die.
The people have no religion.
They do, however, appease evil
spirits.
Women of good family never
see men except those of her
own and husbands families. Ex-
ceptions are women of royal
blood. In a home where he was
entertained, DR.. Selke never met
his hosts wife.
Briefly reviewing the advances
of science. including the atomic
bomb, he confessed he was IN
able to vision the course human
ity will follow in achieving last
ing peace and the attending re-
spect by all peoples for the dig
nitv of all others, but expressed
belief that Providence in due
time will provide the way.

four of the Kittens roster include
former Hardin stars in the per-
sons of Don Hammer, Bob Saund-
ers, Jim Grossman and Jack
Stureznagger, with Perkins, ace
shooting artist, being the only
missing member of last years
team.
Ten of the seasons games will
be played in a heavy December
schedule with nine games in three
weeks. Five of the ten are at
home and three include a road
trip into Wyoming. The sched-
ule after the first of the year
slows the activity down to Fri
day and Saturday games for the
six weeks prior to the district
tournament, with the possible eX-
ception of an additional A school
game being added and thus Civ
ing another home game. Eight
of the ~ games after Christmas
are at home.
During the week candidates for
both A and B squads have been
fighting for berths, and by the
first of next week the teams will
be reduced to workable rosters.
Five lettermen are on hand from
last years tournament 10, and
several good prospects from the
B team. They are expected to
give Laurel another outstanding

Evolution of CIassifications

Zooolgists, like many other peo-
pie, are inveterate classifiers. The
oldest historical records contain at
tempts to classify mammals from
various standpoints, scientific and
otherwise. One of the Oldest and
best known is the ancient Jewish
classification of mammals into
"clean" and "unclean' on the ba-
sis of foot structure and cut-chew-
ing habits Oeviticus xii. Subse-
quent attempts to classify mann
mails, made by biologists in vari-
GUS parts of the world, underwent
a gradual evolution that reflects
the growth of knowledge over the
years.

Setterstrom opened the discus
sion at the Laurel meeting and
introduced Skibbons. They told
of the foundation laid in Mon
tana and said it may require five
years for major results to be
seen. They asked for faith by
those supporting the program.
Politicians often spoke during
the recent campaign about start
ing industries in Montana, which
helped to bring the subject to
the public's attention. The idea
of the division of the state
Chamber of Commerce, Skibbons
said, is to develop many COM
munities. A new plant ofen gives
employment to 100 people.
The attitude of communities
has an important bearing on new
industries. He told of talking
last summer with a man who
had placed a plant in a small
town in Georgia, not because of
cheap labor, nearness of raw
materials or closeness to markets,
but because everyone in the COM
munity thought the plant would
be good for the town. 1t came
and made 80 jobs; schools, streets
and other civic improvements i'm
mediately followed.
In the past year the Industrial
development division has assembl-
ed a great amount of information,
wide, varied and authentic, and
has done considerable research on
what cities, communities and the
state has to offer industries. A
bureau of business research was
begun two months ago at the
university, starting from grass
roots.
A project that is new and may
turn out successfully is molasses
from wood in which cells are
broken down and sugar released.
AS Montana is a livestock state
as we'll as mining, the new pro-
duct is expected to fit nicely
with the feeding of animals.
Another is powdered metals
and still another is synthetic
liquid fuels.
A round table discussion con-
cluded the meeting at the high

Of his plays. Inside he found his

with the words: with the compli-

With a sly smile. Shaw purchased
the volume and wrote under his
