Hennings' Senatorial Victory
SoIves Democratic Wounds

The victory of Thomas G. Hen
nings. jr., over Republican Sena-
tor Forrest Donnell in Missouri
was salve on the Administrations
wounds suffered in other Sena-
torial contests. He was the only
Democratic candidate to capture
a Republican-held Senate seat.
But Mr.. Hennings, a former
member of the House, had to buck
Missouri Democrat leaders and
even President Truman to win a
chance to take on the Republican.
In the August / primary, State
Senator E. w. Allison of Rolla
had the blessing of MIR. Truman.
Gov. Forrest Smith and the PEN
dergast organization in Kansas
City. Mr.. Hennings had the sup
port of many Democratic officials
in ST. Louis and after defeating
the State Senator, won the united
backing of Missouri Democrats.
Wanted Donnell Defeat.
Defeat of Senator Donnell. who
had been something of burr
under the Administration saddle,
was what President Truman
wanted; and late in the cam
paign. he publicly indorsed Mr..
Hennings.
The new Senator served in the
House from 1885 to 1910, repre-
senting the 18th (St. Louis) dis
trict. While there he favored
much of the social welfare legis-
lation of the New Deal, naval ex-
pansion, the Gahagan apti-lynch
bill of 1887 and measures to put
postmasters under civil service.
He opposed the Hatch political
activities bill and attempts to
tighten the neutrality law. He
won wide notice in 1910 when he
and the late Senator Carter Glass
Of Virginia sponsored a move to
permit use of American ships to
evacuate refugee children from
European combat areas.
Took Prosecutor Post.
Mr.. Hennings, At, a lawyer, re-
signed from the House in 1910 to
become circuit attorney in st.
Louis, where he built a reputa-
ton as vigorous prosecutor. In
1941, he left that post to go into
the Navy as a lieutenant COM
mander. During the war, he
served as naval aide to the Gov
ernor of Puerto Rico and as di-

Food for Thought

Mary T. Davenport, Nutrition
Consultant, State Board of Health
Not so long ago, when we went
marketing for food, we took what
we could get. That was our
thought-although we were never
near privation. But it did cause
concern when the selection was
limited or tuna fish was absent
from the grocer's shelves. Then we
had a full supply and in most
cases full pocketbook to meet it.
We watched the law of supply and
demand hold at times and again
waver.
In food marketing we have for
gotten some of our former prac-
tices of watching price tags. These
price tags may be seen on the gro

rarity-a reticulated giraffe,
which means he is striped
light stripes forming a COM
plete network over his dark
brown hide. The more COM
mon kind of giraffe Is buff
colored, with brown or black
iSh spots.
Rufus has been at the Zoo for
nine years, a long time in
captivity for a giraffe. AL
though he is, for the most part,
a mild sort of fellow who loves
to poke his neck up over the
caves of his high-roofed house
and chew on the guttering,
he can get terribly angry at
times. His keeper says Rufus
once kicked him with his back
heels and he felt 1t for two
weeks. The keeper can al
ways tell when Rufus is riled
because the animal begins to
back up so he can get a good
shot with his back heels.
AS kickers 60, the giraffe is
the most versatile of animals.
DR.. william M. Mann, director
of the Zoo, says the giraffe
has three styles of kicking
with his hind feet. he makes
a cowlike swing; with his fore
feet, he delivers a vicious chop
kick like a horse, and he also
shoots a straight-out soccer
player kick. All of them hurt.

would eat mimosa leaves ex-
clusively, but in captivity he
has been induced to feed on

like them. The giraffe has
such long legs he has to as
sumo an awkward position
when he wants to pick up a
tidbit on the ground or take
a drink of water. He has to
spread his front legs wide
apart. or else he couldn't get
his head down far enough.
even with all the neck he has.
The giraffe. like cattle. deer.
goats and sheep. has four
stomachS and Is d-chewer.
He has little horns. but doesn't
use them for anything. His
only offensive weapons are his
feet, but he'd rather use them
for running away than fight
ing. And he can really go!

Five Valley Lassies Seek Queen Grown
 Al This Years Fair


 after midnight next Saturday eve ming. Until the crowning cere- mony at midnight at the Corona tion Ball, no one knows which of these five pretty misses will be queen, and who will be prlncesses of the royal court.
 At press time, only three of the five candidates had qualified for title honors. All girls must sell 300 tickets to be eligible for the crown. Thus far, Lillian Loberg, Vivian Meier and Jean Smith were in line for regal robes. How ever the candidates are allowed to sell tickets until noon tomor- row, and Manager Robert Critics feels sure that all contestants will be in Saturdays finals.
 In addition to her three-day reign over Fair activities, the chosen queen will be given a S200 wardrobe as a prize. The organization which sponsored her will receive a S100 check.
 Ticket sales are only one factor in selection of the winner. Fair board members have labelled the method of judging top secret. Not even the contestants know how they'll be judged or by whom. But sometime tomorrow, at an un- known time and place, the quail fled contestants will meet with unknown judges, to select Mata- nuska Valley Fair queen.
 Jean Smith
 All of the five contestants are sponsored by Palmer organiza- tionS. First candidate announced | for the Fairs queen contest was Miss Jackie Smith, sponsored | by the Matanuska Valley Sports men. However Miss Smith placed | a kitchen apron and menu prob lems before a queens robes and l reigning over Fair, so she | changed Miss Smith to Mrs. Cabo in early July, thereby making herself ineligible. The Sportsmen quickly switched to Jean, young CT sister of Jackie" and still 1 were first to name a queen can didate.
 Jean is 17 and a junior at Pal mer High School. She's the daughter of colonists MT. and Mrs. William Smith, and has spent all but two years of her life in the Matanuska Valley. Brown-eyed ! and fair skinned, Jeans more in terested in perfect scores on the indoor rifle range of the Sports men than she is in beauty con- tests. Joan, in fact, is an all round athlete, for when she's not | at the rifle range, sharpening her shooting eye, she's to be found | on the maple courts at Palmer gymnasium, indulging in hard | game of basketball. She plays the court game with determina- tion and zest, and was member ! of the Palmer Rockets last sea- son.
 Lillian Loberg
 Lillian Loberg, a daughter of | colonists MT. and Mrs. Lauritz Loberg, is the blonde choice of Northland Pioneer Grange. Lil- lian is 16 years old and will be senior at Palmer High School this term. She worked hardest of the five contestants, to write her name first on the qualifying list.
 In addition to all outdoor sports, Lillian is a musician at heart, too. She divides her free time equally between outdoor recreation and on her saxophone, which she plays in the Palmer High School band.

Look Early For
Dairy Club Calf

Now is the time of year when
many 4-H dairy club members
are thinking about selecting
heifer for next years project.
Start looking early advises
Earl H. Voeller, extension dairy
husbandman at Ohio State Uni
versity. You will need plenty of
time to make good selection"
Voeller suggests getting a calf
soon after July I, and sired by a
goodbulI. "A good proved bull"
according to the dairy specialist,
is one with five or more daugh-
ters averaging 400 pounds of but
terfat or better" The dam also
should have some records of 400
pounds or more butterfat.
It's good idea to see as many
close relatives of the calf as
possible, Voeller continues. They
should have good size, breed-char-
acter. dairy-type, well-attached
udders and good feet and legs.
Club leaders, county agents, or
perhaps good breeder can give
valuable assistance in picking a
All heifer.
One of the most important
things to look at is the herd
from which the heifer comes.
Voeller says the herd must be
clean and healthy. IF your father
practices calfhoed vaccination,
have the calf vaccinated. Do it be-
tween the ages of 4 to s months, !"
the specialist adds. Any animal
vaccinated at more than 8 months
cannot be shown or sold, except
for slaughter, 4-H members will
want to be sure they have certi-
ficate. Some more papers that will
need looking after are registra-
ton papers completely and
correctly filled out.
Voeller advises finding out what
your new calf or heifer has been
fed. Don't make any quick
changes in the feeding plan," he
adds. The animal will need good
roughage plus enough grain to
keep her in good condition :
but not too fat and growing
well.
Good showmen, Voeller con-
cludes, start training their ami
mails as soon as possible" !"

ONIOANS WANT LARGER RURAL
SCHOOLS CITIZENS POLL SHOWS

Quoted by the Ohio Citizens Com
mission for the Public Schools.
A strong majority 1870 of
those answering the Commission
QUESTIONABLE expressed the bellef
that the high schools of less than
100 pupils could not, except by a
much higher per pupil expendl-
ture, provide program suited 70
modern needs as well as one OF
200 or more pupils.
Those answering the poll were
willing that action be taken IN
support of this belief. This is in
dicated by the fact that 76 per
cent of those not employed by
the public schools said they would
not oppose school district reorgan-
ization which would result in the
consolidation of very small high
schools.
Many cautioned, however, that
they did not want children riding
school buses for too long a time
every day. A majority of both the
school people and the other citi-
zens in the poll said that from
40 to 90 minutes daily is about
the right length of time. In gen
eraI, times selected for high school
pupils were somewhat longer than
for elementary school pupils.
Those who said that they would
oppose reorganization resulting in
a consolidation of small high
schools 1870 of the school people
and 229o of other citizens) gave
definite reasons for their OPP
position. The most frequent rea-
sons given, in addition to time
spent on school buses, were as
follows: loss of community center,
effect upon community spirit, ef-
feet upon local business, loss of
local control of schools, and less
peronal individual attention to
pupil needs.
A previous article discussed the
response to questions dealing with
the general problem of improving
school district organization. A
final report on the poll will deal
