The Millers have found that
the vast majority Of the allergiC
children who We're brought be
fore them had d deeply troubled
relationship with their parents
with their mothers especially
Psychiatrists call it maternal re-
lection. defining the rejecting
mother as one whose behavior
toward the child is such that
she consciously OF unconsciOusly
has a desire to be free Of the
child and considers it a burden
When nonallergic children
feel hostile to their parents Dr.
Miller explains it, they come
right out with it. In contrast
the allergic children tend to shut
in what they feel. They disclaim
resentment, and get sick. They
take their meannesS out as ii
were. on themselves, in the form
of asthma or hay fever or ccze
ma. instead of on their parents.
This does not mean that il
you are the mother of a allergic
child you must condemn your
self as an unloving. rejecting par
ent. You need not jump to the
conclusion that your solicitude
for your child actually masks
some horrifying hatred. But il
does suggest that allergy may
be providing a channel through
which the child overcomes OF
protests some disturbance in his
relationship to you. his parents.

cupt Daniel Stokes ians can get
snafued by weather, too. 1t has no
favorites. When the weather socks
in, it takes all corners.
My hobby started because got
tired of being lost. But l see now
there was no need to have waited so
long. Figuring out what the skies
are going to look like tomorrow is
kind of fun. Not too hard, either.
All you have to have in the way
of equipment is weather map,
sky to look at, a radio which gives
out with the humidity and baro-
metric pressure, and mellow
Dutch Master Cigar to smoke
while you're making with the
brainwork.
Generally, all weather travels
from West to East. There are local
exceptions, naturally. That hurri-
cane route that runs up the Flor
ida Coast, for instance, moves
from South to North.
There are just a few rules to
learn for forecasting. Rain is bas-
ically caused by heat. Here's a
little example: there are clear
skies, hot and humid. You look out
the window and don't see single
cloud. You know it can't rain>with-
out clouds, so you decide to go on'a
picnic. Don't.
Why? Easy. All this heat beat
ing on the ground causes up-cur,,
rents. The rising air Is moist and
when it reaches higher attitudes
it condenses. And that's what a
cloud is-a collection of water. Be-
fore you could start your car for
the picnic, chances are you'd have
to go back for your umbrella. II
it's hot and humid. look eut.s
Personally, I've given UP pienies
on nice days. I'go in.the fog.

Post Office box holders will

The boxes will remain in the
same positions and only the
numbers will be changed,
Briggs said.
The addition of more postal
boxes, when the postoffice
moved from the building near

"A hard-boiled, 32-year-old par
atrooper from Dillon, Mont, has
brought the worlds record for the
most consecutive parachute jumps
in one day back to the United
States.
Sergt. John w. Swetich, at
tached to the famed 82d Airborne

the man who did it.
Yesterday he wore out five pi-
lots in making 123 jumps in a

Buenos Aires, May 10, 1850. q
More than 10000 persons
jammed Sandrock Airport to see
Sergt. Swetich erase that mark
and go it 18 jumps better.
The paratrooper planned to
jump $50 times, but quit at ILLS

At the end, looking tired with
q days growth of beard, his hair
tousled and wearing an old sweat
shirt, he said, I'm glad it's over

Asked why he did it, he told a
reporter: II wanted to keep the

His only mishap came on his
