No Casualties, |U. 5. Troops in A-Bonlb BIasi


 LAS VEGAS. Nev., Nov 1-tR-- US. Army troops were exposed to- day to an atomic blast for the first time, and came off without casu- alties and with knowledge which may prove greater than antici- pated."
 Official confirmation of the troops participation in today's blast, which was so strong that il cracked store windows in this city more than 75 miles away, came from Maj. Gen. William B. Kean commanding the Army's Third Corps.
 Another Army spokesman, de- clining ta be quoted by name, said "this is the one test in which troops will be involved This was taken to indicate that the Army is satisfied with what it learned and will not participate in further AEC experiments here.
 The blast went off at 7:30 am. and sent a giant white cloud mush- ,rooming over the Yucca Flat test center in the desert northwest ot here.
 Las Vegas Rocked
 Several minutes later Las Vegas was rocked by the concussion. Police switchboards were flooded with calls from anxious residents. Some of them described the rattling jar as stronger than in series of atomic blasts last winter.
 Windows were broken in at least three stores on downtown Fremont St., and the AEC quickly posted notices saying residents suffering damage could file claims.
 Today's was the fourth explosion in the current group. Five went off at the range here last winter.
 No Baby A-Bomb"
 The fact that the flash itself was visible here 75 miles away = in bright daylight indicated to observ- CTS that it was not a so-called baby A-bomb" of the type set off in the first test here.
 That one couldn't be seen in this southern Nevada resort city. Pre- sumably, today's was dropped from a B-29.
 Seven minutes after the explo- sion, distinct concussion rattled buildings here. It was the first time in this falls test that the sound waves have been noted in Las Vegas.
 The rattling was accompanied by a. long swishing sound audible to rooftop observers.
 The jarring was not nearly so severe as in last winters blasts however.
 A white cloud scared more than a mile into the air within few min- utes. But it's stem disintegrated quickly. The cloud was touched with pink. But from here, at least the brilliant flashes of color seen in Tuesdays blasts were missing.

House Group To Alaska on Land Claims
 To Hold Shorf Hearings in Eight Alaska Cities;
 Al Juneau Nov 8

Investigation into the various as- poets of Indian, Eskimo and Aleut land claims in Alaska takes a. new turn next week when members of subcommittee. comprised of re- presentatives to Congress, hold hearings in cities in all sections of the Territory.
 The subcommittee is said to be holding the hearings to gather in formation and to absorb the gen. eral feeling of Alaska natives, com mercial groups, business men and individuals before further action is taken on a bill introduced before the House of Representative by E. L. Bob Bartlett, delegate from Alaska.
 According to Hugh J. Wade, area director of Alaska Native Service the first hearing before the group will be in Anchorage Nov. 5. In quick succession, the hearings will be held in Fairbanks Kotzebue, Nome, Kodiak, Juneau, Sitka and Ketch- ikan.
 On the subcommittee are: Rep. Clair Engle (D-Calif), Rep. Norris Poulson (R-CaliD, Rep. Wayne N. Aspinall (D-Colo). Rep Chester D. McMullen (D-Fla), Rep. Edward H. Janison (R-IlD, Rep Wesley A. DEwart R-Mont), Rep. Frank T. Bow (R- Ohio, Delegate E. L. Bart lett (D-Alaska), and attorney for the group, Preston Peden.
 Wade's Capacity Wade will accompany the subcom- mittee in semi official capacity at the request of the group.
 The subcommittee will arrive in Anchorage by commercial plane on Nov. 4, according to the present schedule. Hearing will be held in Anchorage the morning of Nov. 5 and in Fairbanks the same evening. Air Force planes will carry the sub committee after leaving Anchorage until they arrive in Juneau.
 Departure is scheduled from Fair banks the morning of Nov. 6 for Kotzebue and Nome, where hear ings are set for afternoon and eve ming of that day. A hearing is on Jap for Kodiak the following eve ling, then the group will head for Juneau.
 Juneau Hearing The Juneau hearing is tentatively set for the Senate Chambers of the Federal building at 3:30 pm. on Nov 8.
 The group will leave here on commercial plane to Sitka Nov 9, and will return here the same day The Ketchikan airing of the pros and cons of the land claims is ex- pected to be especially important It was set for that date because it immediately precedes the begin ming of the convention of the Alaska Native Brotherhood in that city.
 Natives from all parts of South east Alaska are expected to at tend, and the meeting there will be extended one or two days il necessary. Wade said.

SEEDING RANGE by means Of
automatic seeders hung from the
necks of sheep and cattle so that
the animals seed while they feed.
Motion of the animals head as it
grazes operates moving discs in the
device, allowing a few seeds to drop
at time. Inventors Walter Miller
and James Mackenzie of Phoenix
say the seeder will hold enough for
a week or more and almost any
type of seed may be used.
COATING COFFEE with an egg
paste to. preserve flavor and aroma.
A patent has been issued for a pro-
cess of coating roasted coffee beans
with a paste of raw eggs at a tenn
perature of about $50 degrees. The
paste is said to hold in flavor and
aroma and improve flavor of coffee.
MAKING DRY ICE from corn.
During the process of fermenting
corn into ethyl alcohol the corn gives
off quantities of carbon dioxide gas.
This formerly was allowed to pass
off as waste but it is now being
drawn off, purified and compressed
into liquid and solid carbon dioxide
at the rate of several tons of dry
ice day.
PUMPING WHEAT like water
through 1-inch pipes. Researchers at
the West Virginia research station
report they have been able to move
a ton of wheat per hour through rs
feet of 1-inch pipe using air pressure
OF ) pounds per square inch. The
principle applied to farm use would
indicate the possibility of piping
feed and grain wherever needed,
thus permitting the farmer to feed
poultry and livestock by merely
opening valve just as is now done
with water.

EXTRACTING A DRUG from the
urine of pregnant mares that is said
to be effective in the treatment of
peptic ulcers. Scientists who OBJ
served that women suffering from
duodenal ulcer recovered during
pregnancy, later isolated the healing
agent as hormore and found that
it was generated in large quantities
by mares in foaL Between the 10th
and 250th days of pregnancy, the
mare produces surplus of the hor-
none which passes off in the urine.
a drug concern is repeatedly paying
so cents gallon for such urine and
the income from draft mare during
the 80 days may amount to 5000.
Experimenting with the pos
sibility of increasing the protein
content Of wheat by application of
nitrogen sprays to the leaves. Linn
tied research at Kansas State college
is reported to indicate the possibility
that spraying wheat just before
bloom stage with a formulation Of
urea may increase the protein. Re
search is still only in the preliminary
stage.

all of you-all to come" She means,
of course, every one of you, with
out exception" She will also make
a plural possessive out of "you-all'
by referring to "you-all's house,
or, like as not, simply, "you-au's," "
as. "We think you-all's new house is
lovely" or, "We plan to drop by
you-ail's New Years eve."
Southerners also confuse North
erners by the three different in
Elections which are given to "you-
ALL" thus: I'VE want YOU all to
come to dinner Thursday evening
We'd like to have you ALL if y'all
can come" This sounds very queer
to the non-Southerner. But to the
Southerner it is a perfectly natural
way Of saying: "We want you and
your family to come to dinner
Thursday evening. We'd like to
have every one of you if you (pluraD
can come"
Now I'd like to correct the er-
roneous idea current among most
non-Southerners that the use of
"you-all" is dramatically incor-
rect. 1t is not, for the term occurs
in the speech of all levels of
society. 1t is far more accurate to
say that "you-all'' is a historic and
long established Southern idiom,
perfectly proper dramatically and
logically. AS one Southern ver-
sifler puts it:
II you would be more sociable
And with us often mingle,
You'd find that on the Southern tongue
''You-all" is never single.
Don't think mean to criticize,
Or act as though I knew all;
But-when we speak Of one alone
We-all say you" like you-all

In time of peace, the mobiles OF the
Middle Ages had various ways to
enjoy castle life. From the estates
around their castles came a large
supply of food, and there was a
great deal of feasting.
Games were popular, and among
them was chess. Women, as well
as men, sometimes learned to play
chess.
The castle folk also played cards,
but their cards were different from
modern playing cards, though they
carried out the same general idea
In the decks were Kings of Carna-
tions, Queens of HareS, Knaves of
Columbines, Aces of Bells, and so
on.
Dancing was popular in the
castles. One dance was the round
dance, in which men and women
joined hands and formed a circle.
To the music of drums and flutes,
they skipped around, singing as
they moved. First one person, then
another, would sing part Of a song.
Evening star., 1951-03-16

It's been going on for yearS-the
outraged protests of SouthernerS
whenever some one on the screen or
radio, in the role of a Southerner,
uses "you-all" in the singular, as,
Honey chile, sho do love you-all." !"
Southern people write me by the
score, demanding, "Tell those YAM
KEGS that we do not use 'you-all' as
singular pronoun."
So, as I have done on many pre-
vious occasions, I must explain that
''you-all" is plural, even when said
to a single person. For example,
when one Southerner greets another
with How're you-all?" he means,
How are you and all your folks?"
A Southern housewife will ask the
grocerS clerk: do you-all have
such-and-such a brand of coffee?"
She is not addressing him as you
all" What she is saying is: do
you meaning this Store") have
such-and-such brand of coffee?"
The clerk would never answer,
Yes, mann, I have that brand"
His answer would be: Eyes, mann,
we have that brand"
In short, the Southern "you-all"
is always a plural pronoun even
when it is said to a single person.
1t means, you and your establish
ment, you and your wife or husband,
you and your family, you and your
friends or fellow workers. When
the actor uses 'you-all' in the sin
gular, he makes himself ridiculous
in the eyes of Southern people.
Two variations are often heard.

family to dinner, will say, I'VE want

Uncle Ruy's Corner

All would join in a loud and merry
chanting of the chorus.
The torch dance became popular
at weddings. The dancers divided
into couples, and each man carried
lighted torch. AS they stepped
about, they tried to blow out the
torches of other couples.
That dance was amusing, but it
was dangerous. In one tragic case
the costume of French prince
caught fire, and the prince died
as a result of the burns he suffered.
Both men and women wore caps
or hats during the dancing. The
knights took off their heavy ar
NOR before they started, but some
of them wore coats-of-mail.
1t was we'll for the knights to
take off most of their armor!
Think of the trouble they would
have had otherwise! An average
suit of armor weighed about As
pounds. One large suit of armor,
which has been saved to the pres
ent time, has a weight of SO
pounds. but it was worn by q man

who was much taller and stouter
than the average knight.
All in all, we may suppose that
the mobiles enjoyed their lives in the
castles. They must have felt that
they were ION top of the world.
What would they have said if some
one had told them that the day
would come when people would
have electric lights, monographs,
telephones and radios2
