Bob Miller whose tip led to the
fund campaign for Baby Jasper
Walker, suffering from a brain
ailment, never had it so good
as last weekend.
The IS year old sailor off the
USS Howard Gilmore and his
shipmate Eugene Kelley, chose
the night and day at the Casa
Marina for Miller'S prize.
Bob. a taciturn young man, was
not only hard to reach to get the
prize to, but hard to reach as he
ate up prize luncheon and dinner
at the hotel. Ellis Finch, photo
grapher caught up with him in
the Casa Marina dining room
Sunday night after he had put
away his second huge meal on
the house.
The slim youngster also took
advantage of the Casa Marina
beach club, summing and swim.
ming to his hearts content.
Though he was invited by the
Women's Hospital Auxiliary to
their grand ball Saturday night,
Bob could not be reached aboard
the Gilmore with that news. So
he contented himself with the big
Sunday at the Casa Marina,
checking in with Gene before the
buffet luncheon, which is q re.
gular weekly event at the hotel.
informed beforehand of the at.
tire required by the fashionable
hotel, Bob and Gene got out oil
their whites, and into coat and
tie for dinner.
Hotel manager Emmitt Commit
told us today:
They had a wonderful time :
but l didn't see them with any
of our pretty girls out here"

So Bob did not cop an heireSs
while he was King for a day, or at
least so Emmitt says. Who knows
at this very moment the young
sailor off the Gilmore may be
lining up at pay station to call

Russia Rejects
us. Protest
Shooting
By THOMAS p. WHITNEY


MOSCOW R-Russia has reject
ed U. S. protest against a shoot
ing scrape involving an American
plane in the Far East. A Kremlin
note said the American craft made
two ''premeditated" violations of
Siberian territory and fired first.
The Soviet rejection printed in
Russian newspapers Tues, coun-
fernandez that the U. S. gov
eminent take steps TO prevent flu
ture violations of Soviet borders
by American planes.
"a Moscow radio broadcast said
the reply was delivered Saturday
to the u. S. Embassy in the So
Wet eapital.)
The American protest had de-
clared the March Is incident-in-
volving an AlaSkap-based B5O
bomber which the Air Force re-
ported on weather reconnaissance
occurred Is miles off the coast of
Siberia'S Kamchatka Peninsula. It
said Soviet MIG15 shot at the
bomber, which then returned the
fire. The U. S. Air Force said
neither plane was damaged.
The Russian reply said it had
been established" that the bomb
er made two flights over Soviet
territory March 15--the first at
Cape KreStovoi, in Southern KAN
chatka, and the second near the
village of Zhupanovo, northeast of
the Soviet base of Petropavlovsk.
Good weather which in both
cases enabled the crew I the
(American) aircraft to carry out
visual reconnaissance on a large
area excluded the possibility of a
loss of orientation and confirmed
that the above two cases of viola
ton of the state frontier Of the
USSR were of clearly premedi-
tated character" the Soviet note
declared.
1t claimed that the U. S. plane
shot at Soviet fighters that had
taken off when the second alleged
violation occurred and ''for the
purpose of Self-defense one of the
Soviet aircraft had TO open fire"
The Infringing" plane then
turned and headed east from the
Siberian coast, the Russians added.
The u. S. had said that two
Soviet MICS suddenly appeared
near the bomber as it was flying
off Kamchatka about 100 miles
northeast of the Petropavlovsk
base. One jet stayed overhead but
the other swooped down firing. The
American tail gunner fired only
after the Russian fighter opened
with its guns, the u. S. Air Force
declared.
The American protect had de.
manded disciplining of the Soviet
pilot. It also called on the Russians
to prevent recurrence Of such in
cidents.

IL States To
Call Youth OF
l9 Next Month
RY RAY HENRY

WASHINGTON Up - Forty-one
states will draft 19-year-olds for
military duty next month, and two
others may have to, an Associated
Press survey showed Monday.
For IA of these al states, ii will
be the first draft of 19-year-olds
since World War II.
The survey Of state selective
service directors also found that
all but two states--Alabama and
South Carolina--prohably viii be
taking 19-year-olds in May. The
Alabama director said it viii be
June, perhaps later, before any
will be drafted in his state. The
South Carolina director said he
didn't know when.
The other three states that won't
take 19-year-olds in April are
Maryland, Vermont and Virginia.
New Jersey and Tennessee direc-
tors said maybe not"
Thirteen states plan to call 49,
year-olds to fill at least so per
cent Of their April draft quotas.
Probably the biggest number will
come from Illinois where the state
director estimated the bulk" of a
1884 quota would be 19-year.olds.
Pennsylvania will need about $500
Of 4,081 quota. California comes
third with about 1000 Of 1854.
The April draft quota for the
whole country is $1,000.
The present draft age Is 1872
to rs. Draft boards have been TAX
ing first the oldest men they have.
Until January state directors had
been ordered to take no 19-year-
olds.
The reason some states are
taking 19-year-olds and some
aren't results from the variation
in available manpower to fill their
quotas.
The actual number of 19-year-
Odds the states need to fill April
quotas, the AP survey showed,
varies widely.
Massachusetts, with 1882
quota, viii need Substantially all"
19-year-olds, as will Arizona with
a 243 quota, the District of Column
bia with a Q18 quota and Oregon
with a $50 quota.
Eleven states-Georgia, Indiana,
Maine, Minnesota, Mississippi, Ne.
braska, Missouri, North Dakota,
West Virginia, Wisconsin and Wy
oming-say small percentage Of
their quotas win be 19.year-olds.
In the following states, over so

be 19-year-olds:
Arkansas, $40 quota; Michigan,
2,527; New Hampshire, ISL: Ne

Asch sailed for southern France

Israel Arabs
Feel Effects
Of Friction
In Holy Lon1
By Aleph Sherman
Copyright, 1858,

NOOpyT1gnt, 1898,
Jewish Telegraphic Agency, Inc.)
EVERY CLASH on ISraePS bor-
de~s, or every talk of peace, how
ever slender, has its effect on the
day-to-day lives of Israel's 170,-
000-strong Arab minority.
Though the status and rights of
these people are the subject of
passionate discussion here inside
Israel, the various sides in the
discussion have more in common
than at first meets the eye. Every
one has changed his pre-war at
titude, no one is as optimistic and
sure of himself as he was, and
everyone agrees that the final So
luton of Israels minority problem
is dependent on changed attitude
towards Israel on the part of the
Arab states.
The biggest concentration of A
rabs is in Western Galilee, around
Nazareth, with its population of
10000 odd, two-thirds of them
Christians. In Nazareth and it's
surrounding villages, most of the
people live almost unaffected, not
only by Israel, but by the last
thousand years or so of history.
The peasants look after their
endless stretches of olive groves,
whose oil is extracted in Nazareth;
they Craze their flocks and till
their soil. Some of the bigger vii
lagos have electricity, some have
schools. But very few of the viii
layers read, and in the evenings
the lights go out early and the
villagers go off to bed.
Nazareth itself is hardly more
than an overgrown village. There
are as many camelS and donkeyS
as motor cars in its main streets,
which wind up the hill past his
toric churches. A year and a half
ago there was an ugly community
riot here between Christians and
MoSlems (not the first by any
means) in which blood flowed free
ly before Jewish police and troops
were brought in to restore order.
THE ONLY JEWS in the town
and the surrounding countryside
are doctors, police and other Of
ficialS. 1t is planned to bring West
ern Galilee into the main stream
of Israel life, and to settle Jews
in some of the more empty parts
of it for security reasons.
1t appears paradoXical that
though the Arab inhabitants of
Western Galilee have a higher
standard of living than any other
community in the whole of the
Arab world, as far as housing, diet,
clothing, education, and amenities
are concerned. Communist activity
among them has found a most fer
tile field. Forty-five percent of
their votes at the last elections
went to the Communist candidates.
One important reason is that the
Communist party in Israel, almost
devoid of support from Jews, ex-
cept for a few professionals and
a number of half-educated immi-
grants from Iraq and Rumania,
acts as a mouthpiece for Arab ma
tionaliSm, while no Arab national
ist parties have been allowed while
the state of war between Israel
and the Arab countries remains to
be Inundated

Il Days Observation Of
Sheep Grazing Habits

BY ]. E. BUTCHER and F. Il. BRANSON
Montana Agricultural Experiment Station
Montana farmer-stockman., 1953-07-01

eat Wnlle grazing is very important
in studying range sheep nutrition.
Grazing studies are given consider
able emphasis by the Animal In
dustry and Range Management De-
partment of the Montana Agricul-
tural Experiment Station in their
range sheep nutrition studies. This
has included intensive range sur
veys, forage utilization studies,
chemical analyses of range forage
and study of sheep grazing habits.
During the last year white point
loco has been found to be of particu-
lar interest in the grazing habits
of these sheep.
The sleeps activities of a day
typical of the 1928 winter graz
ing season was selected for this
report on sheep grazing habits.
8 am. Jan. 20. The sheep had
been chute cut fed their various
supplements and had moved out to
Craze. The ground was dry, 20 to
25 mile per nour west wind, cloudy
sky, 35 degree temperature. A wind
gauge, humidity gauge and a Their
mometer are used to obtain accurate
weather data at the sheep camp.
The grazing area from this camp
site has been gone over several times
before, but utilization had not been
heavy. 1t could be best described
as picked over" The sheep ap-
peared to be in good condition.
$3.50 am. The band was facing
the wind and grazing over an old
field that had been seeded to crested
wheatgrass, but contained much
cheatgrass bronze and few native
grasses and forbs. The plants most
often grazed were crested wheat
grass and needle and thread.
10 am. The sheep were grazing
steadily Git appeared unusually SOY
and were moving slowly but di-
rectly into the wind. They crossed
the old field and moved into some
low hills.
10:15 am. A blustery rain and
snow began, but the sheep still
grazed steadily.
1890 am. The sheep spooked and
moved rather rapidly downwind.
They were stopped as they re-
entered the old field and they began
grazing again. 1t became easier to
move among them and observe their
grazing. They were taking some
plants very close, within 7s-inch OF
the ground. The sheep on the old
field were selecting crested wheat
grass with some preference for green
growth although the old growth was
not noticeably avoided or discarded
They were much more selective
of the other grasses, taking mostly
green or fine growth. The plant:
they could be observed taking in
cluded needle and thread, junegrass
sandberg bluegrass. phlox, and white
pointloco.
ILLS am. The storm got mucl
worse. Part of the sheep huddlet
on the side of hill out of the wind
and part of them kept grazing. l
wasn't very cold, lot of the snow
was melting as it fell.
