NOEL WIEN, VETERAN BUSH PILOT, RETURNS TOFLY WITH FAIRBANKS LINE

Noel Wien, veteran pilot of Fairbanks who went Outside to make his home two years ago, has returned to Alaska. The widely known aviation pioneer will re- sume bush operations with Wien Alaska Airlines. Noel, Jr., also returned with his father and will be added to the airline's pilot roster.
 Noel Sr.'s early flying exploits include a quartet of firsts in the aviation history of Alaska. He make the first Anchorage to Fair banks flight in 1924. He brought the first cabin plane into Alaska, when he purchased a Fokker from Holland in 1925. (This plane is believed to be one of the first in the world used commercially. He made the first commercial flight from Fairbanks to Nome in 1925. He made what is believed to be the first flight north of the Arctic Circle, anywhere in the world, when he flew from Fair banks to Wiseman in 1925.

COLLEGE DORMITORIES TO ACCOMMODATE
 HOPELESS TOURISTS

Unused dormitories at the Uni versity of Alaska will be offered as tourist accommodations this summer, president Ferris Moore announced last week. Dr. Moore explained that although the Uni versity did not expect to make more than increased insurance costs on the rental, ''The Univer- sity administration feels it should exert itself, whenever reasonably possible, to help the Alaskan tourist business, and it should not stand idly by with empty dormi- tories in the face of a serious shortage of facilities.
 Hotels and travel agencies are invited to get in touch with Clar- ence HolllisgsWorth, postmaster at College, who can contract with them for the unused dormitory space.

by their names. dreamed up the
original story in which Miss Win
ters appears. It is almost surely
the most unoriginal original story
of the season, a grave injustice
to poor Shelley, who has hardly
had time to develop her acting to
the point of redeeming weak
scripts.
Her role is that of a pretty
saloon entertainer who is running
short of islands on which she is
permitted to land and practice
her art. The suggestion of this is
that she is a great sinner, but no
matter how many times she is SO
accused, there really is no evi-
dence to support it. True her ap-
pearance in bars clad in f1lmy
halter, brief skirt and black net
stockings almost invariably leads
to a riot, but the men who go thus
berserk are the ones who should
be deported.

drink, retires to her room alone
after her singing stint, and has
developed one of the greatest de-
fenses since. the drawings were

Beans are self-pollinating and

Keirns says many small lima
bean growers in Ohio are fort

neighbors may keep bees.

Wheat Promises
Good Yields

Ohio wheat survived the winter
very well, and prospects are good
for satisfactory, if not a bump
er crop in 1850, states c. A. Lamb,
of the agronomy department of
the Ohio Agricultural Experiment
Station.
Damage has been restricted to
areas in fields where water lay
for some time, continues Lamb.
Wheat with good fall growth
stood a surprising amount of
water with little or no injury.
Late planted and inadequately
fertilized wheat, on the other
hand, suffered severely in poorly
drained locations.
The season was notable for ex-
tremely mild temperatures thro-
ugh December, January, and part
of February, combined with high
rainfall. Wheat continued to grow
at intervals throughout the winter.
Moderately severe frost in late
February and March killed back
the tops considerably, but appaT-
emily did no great harm to the
plants.
Most extensive damage was
found in fields in northwestern
Ohio where drainage was poor and
the wheat plants small. 1t was
evident that growthy wheat in ad-

baby Boom" Is
Posing Problems

Doctors, nurses, druggists and
diaper service have realized the
significance of the so-called baby
BOOM" However, the immensely
of this new generation is just
beginning to dawn on parents
and the general public.
Ohio's elementary school en-
rollment in the 1954-55 school year
will be about the same size AS
our combined elementary and
high school enrolment this year.
It will be 250,000 higher than it is
today.
During and Immediately follow
ing World War II, the soaring
birth rate was labeled war bab-
les" and was treated as a tenn
porary situation which would be
of short duration. However, the
birth rate continues at high
level in Ohio. 1t was much higher
last year than the year before.
Ohio today is unprepared to
meet the demands which will be
placed upon its school systems.
There is scarcely a school dis
trict which does not already have
crowded classrooms. There is an
ample supply of high school teach
ers, but critical shortage of ele-
mentary teachers. The State De-
partment of Education reports
that $500 additional trained ele-
mentary teachers will be needed
in Ohio's schools next September.
.If none of the present $500 under
trained temporarily certificated
teachers are replaced, $500 will
still be needed. However, only
1850 grade school teachers will
be graduating from all of Ohio's
college and universities this year.
Time is short Four years are
needed to adequately train an
elementary teacher. Two or more
years are required to plan and
construct a school building.
Providing good schools for these
thousands of additional youngsters
is the joint responsibility of COM
munities and the state legislature

to the future of the state, the
citizens of Ohio cannot permit

Centaurea
Colors Excel

Few flowers have as many names
as Centaurea Cyanus. Cornflower.
bachelors button, bluet, ragged
sailor, French pink are some of
them. 1t is grown all over the world
and popular everywhere, for its
clear, bright colors, and its ability
to thrive wherever it gets half a
chance.
Men wear cornf1owers in their
lapels more than any other flower,
and while most of them like the
double corndower blue, the dark
maroon variety is popular. There
are also light blue, lovely true
pink, a glowing red, and white.
Seeds should be soWn direct in the
garden; they terminate in eight
days, and flower in weeks. Many
stems grow from the base and
terminate in clusters of flowers. A
strain of dwarf habit, growing only
a foot tall, has just been introduced,
including all colors.
Unless one has need for many
cut flowers, it can be grown for
border effect, and will easily spare
all the cut flowers that may be
taken. In fact, when the first crop
of blooms begins to fade, the
growth should be cut back heavily
and new growth will develop to
bear second, and third crop OF
blooms.
Centaurea cyanus has many
cousins, there being 500 species
scattered around the world, with
only one native in America, a per.

flower is SO hardy that it nearly
always self-seeds, and these seed.

SO superior that new seed should
be started each year, and the vol
unteers pulled up, in order to main
tain the quality of your display.
