Hear Dramatic Story
Of Binding Crash
Prize Contribution
By MiehoeI BIonkstein, l6
Roosevelt High School

Bright lights in her eyes a
crash days in the hospital,
hoping 1t was a nightmare /.
the knowledge that she would
never see again and the grief
of starting a new life. This was
the dramatic and inspiring tale
told by Anita Blair to an audience
at Roosevelt High School. She
spoke after a movie showing how
her seeing-eye dog Fawn, which
accompanied her to Roosevelt,
helps her to live a normal life.
Miss Blair Is on q trip around
the country to tell her story and
to plead for safety on the highway.
She was II and looking forward
to life when she was blinded.
Afterward, she was still II. but
she knew that she would never see
again.
She was in car with friend
going 10 miles an hour when the
accident occurred. Blinded for
second by another cars bright
lights, they crashed into a parked
truck.
Miss Blair closed her inspiring
talk with a plea for safety in which
she pointed out that many acci-
dents could be prevented by the
use of a little common sense.

Most I1ummingbirds
Live in Torrid Zone;
7 Varieties in L. S.
Bv tJncIe Raw
By Uncle Roy

Hummingbirds are residents of
the New World. They are not
found in Africa. Europe, Asia or
Australia.
Seven kinds of hummingbirds
are known in the United States.
Hundreds of other kinds never
fly north of Mexico.
Almost 600 kinds Of humming-
birds are known, but most of them
make their nests in the torrid zone.
Vervain hummingbirds of ia
maica are only about 21a inches
long. Even smaller is the fairy
hummingbird of Cuba. 1t is only
az inches and ranks as "the
smallest bird in the world" With
out feathers. its body is hardly as
large as walnut.
The largest of all humming-
birds is the giant hummer" Of the
Andes Mountains. It has a length
Of from 8 to 9 inches.
"Hummers" often sip nectar
from flowers. They are fond of
the sap Of the sugar maple. and
take nectar from honeysuckle,
jasmine and lilac blossoms. They
also eat their share of insects.
Some kinds are very fond of
spiders.
The humming noise made by
these birds gave them their name.
Usually, they do not sing in any
true sense Of the word; they twit-
ter or squeak.
That is the general rule. but
several kinds have q real song.
The vervain. for example. often
MARBLES q weak but sweet song
from the top Of q mango or orange
tree.
The ruby-throated humming-
bird II larger than the vervain or
the fairy. but 1t is the smallest
native bird In the United States.
The ruby throat gained his name
from the patch Of red feathers on
his throat, as red as q ruby.

We had plenty OF room We also

Mr.. Marsh had stopped up the

but he couldn't stop the angry
roar that went on inside. When
We finally cot home about ? am.
il sounded like We were being fol-

We got them all SET up nicely with

Mr.. Marsh told me I should en-

scrape off the queen cells. This,
