If you are looking for advice
on this business of carting a size
able family around the world, I'm
the guy to come to. Week before
last we packed our bags in Aber-
deem, Scotland, prepared to grab
thesis am. train for London,
with reservations through to Italy.
During the night Betty decided
to continue the family's campaign
to wreck the British National
Health service, with the resulting
loss of four teeth and five days
from our schedule.
We negotiated the intricacies OF
London traffic and channel cross
ing with the aid of doses OF dra-
mamine and rolled through Nor
thern France without seeing II.
The journey will always be me-
morable, though, because OF my
firsttry at a combination OF high
school French and Indian sign
language-which netted a couple
of beds for the kids. Missing ano
changing trains in Switzerland
was sheer JOY because OF the gor-
geous countryside but put US INTO
Milan at night unmet and appar-
emily unwept. My major accom-
plishment of the year came III
getting through Italian customs
changing stations, and arriving on
schedule by local train at Canzo'
Provincial di Como, some twenty
miles north of Milan, witnou'
meeting a single person why
spoke English.
For the past week we have been
4 soaking in this rare Italian atmo'
4 sphere and George Carbone' my
colleague from ole Miss, ano !
have been swapping notes on DIT
tain and Italy. We have come u
I some tntative conclusions.

On page ten of this paper you will see a chart that tells
a graphic story of the rising tide of polio. This graph
shows that there were about los, 900 cases of polio in the
s-year period from 1946-1949-four times as many as the
Syear period from 1938-1941. The total number of cases
seems to be doubling every three years-where will it stop?

Girl Lacks Sense
If She Plays With
Married Man

DEAR MISS DIX: What is your
opinion of the young woman who
plays around with married men
just for the fun of it? An attrac-
tive young friend of mine sees no
harm in going out with married
men for good times. dining, dane
ing. driving around in a car until
Hlate hours in the night. provided
their intentions are not serious and
she does not become involved in a
love affair. She may be right, but
will the single men nearer her own
age have the same regard for her?
Will her own reputation remain
intact?
E.. FIG.
Answer: The girl who picks out
married man for her playfellow
is short on good. hard horse sense.
True, he may blow her to more
expensive amusements than a poor
boy can. but she has to pay too
high price for them.
To begin with, she pays with her
good name. She may be as chaste
as ice and as pure as snow, but no
body will believe it. When young
man takes a girl out and spends
his money on giving her good
time. 1t is part of the technique
of courtship. But the married man
is different. He is bound to an
other woman and when he takes
a girl out to dinners and dances
instead of his wife, and when she
is out with him until late at night
a cynical world sees nothing inno-
cent in the companionship.
Then the girl who runs around
with married men greatly lessons
her chance of marrying. She
wastes her beauty and her youth
on the men who can't marry her
and cuts herself off from the men
who could marry her.
Still another danger that a girl
runs who goes about with married
men is that of falling in love with
them. She cannot possibly guard
herself against this, and when it
happens it is a catastrophe that
almost invariably wrecks her life.
And still another reason why it is
wrong for girl to play around
with married men is because of
the suffering it inflicts on a sister
woman. No girl would want the
tables turned on her and to spend
her evenings alone at home while
her husband was showing some
pretty young girl a good time.
So let the married men alone,
girls. Don't poach on another wom-
ans preserves. 1t doesn't pay.
DEAR MISS DIX: am perfect
brunette, and am engaged to
young man who is a brunette, too.
People have told us that two
brunettes should never marry.
What is wrong about it?
PAT.
Answer: Nothing. Whole nations
of brunette people marry each
other with the happiest results.
The color of peoples eyes and hair
and skin has nothing whatever to
do with whether they will be con-
genial life mates or not. It is the
temper and the disposition and the
character of the man or woman
you marry that makes marriage
success or a failure, not whether
he or she is blond or brunette.

Maryland Is Sending
Big Squad 10 Game
with Michigan State

Maryland is taking four players
and two coaches more than the
usual travelling squad to Michigan
State tomorrow. as Coach Jim
Tatum does not want to leave
a single person behind who might
contribute even the smallest part
towards an upset triumph over the
Spartans.
Twice this week the athletic
department at College Park has
been conspicuously absent of foot
ball coaches until pm, but that's
because Tatum and his staff have
been working overtime.
They have been meeting at
Tatum's home after dinner and
working until the small hours of
the morning. Instead of collecting
all the papers and scout reports
and erasing the blackboards, they
just leave things as is, go home
for a nap and report back right
after an early breakfast to Tatum S
home.
Buck Farley missed today's
workout after hurting his knee
yesterday. but the defensive half
back will leave with the 44-man
squad and six coaches from Ma
tional Airport at II o'clock to-
morrow morning.
This is Maryland's fifth game
with Michigan State and Tatum
Is the third Maryland coach try
ing to beat the Spartans in the
last six years. Doc Spears Terps
lost twice in q" home home
series in 1914; Clark Shaugh-
