Ohio State Fifth
Largest In Nation

COLUMBUS, OHIO, Dec. IA -
Ohio State University's full-time
enrolment this fall ranks it fifth
in size among the nations colleges
and universities.
This was revealed today by DR..
Raymond Walters, president of the
University of Cincinnati, in his an
nual enrolment report prepared
for the educational publication,
School and Society"
On the basis of grand total en-
rollment, Ohio State is ninth larg-
est among the institutions of high
er education.
Full-time student registration
reported by the largest universi-
ties included:
University of California, 1882;
State University of New York, 81
268; University of Minnesota, 49,
O74; University of Michigan, IT,
500; and Ohio State, 1887.
Grand total enrolment figures

Consumers Spend
More For Service

Consumers are spending less of
their food-dollar for food and
more for services say United
States Department of Agriculture
economists.
More and better packaging,
washing, selection, mixing, pre-
cooking and preparing of products
for the American table are a con-
tinuing trend which partially ex-
plains a widening spread between
farm prices and retail costs of
food, according to a report on mar
keting and transportation recently
released by the department.
The report lists several reasons
for the increases in marketing ser
vices. One is the mounting proper
ton of women especially married
women - working outside the
home. Families of working women
tend to buy more partially prepar-
ed and wholly prepared foods and
to eat more meals in restaurants.
Other trends that affect the
spread between farm prices and
retail prices are geographic spe-
cialization in farm production and
concentration of population in ur-
ban centers. These increase trans
portation costs.
Improvement in consumer in
comes is another factor that in
Creases demand for marketing SER
vices. AS incomes improve, con-
sumers do not buy more food but
they are willing to pay for Serv-
ices that improve quality and at
traCtiveness of the food or that
save their time in preparing it.
Farmers probably will receive
about the same share of the con-
sumer's food dollar next year as in
1858, according to USDA econom-
lists. The Share for this year is es-
timated at 45 cents.

Farmer Invented
FLEXIBLE Flyer"

American kids got the best steer
they ever had from stern old
Quaker back in the COS.
Besides keeping them out of
trouble, it's brought them a whale
of lot of good, healthy winter
sport to boot.
According to an article in the
current issue of Steelways, maya
zine of American Iron and Steel
Institute, it was Samuel L. AL
len, an inventor of farm imple-
ments, who was responsible for
the rootin'tooti FLEXIBLE Flyer"
as we know it today.
When Allen first tinkered with
the idea of a sled with steel
runners that could be steered,
most sleds Tor sledges as they
were called) were of a Middle
Ages variety with rigid wooden
runners. Once started downhill
they headed hell-bent for elderly
ladies or anything else that got IN
the way.
Allen made his new sled of
steel and wood the same ma
terials he used in his farm i'm
plement plant and kept his
factory busy during otherwise
idle months. The sleek lines of the
Flexible Flyer with its graceful
steel runners, high carbon steel
supports and slim riding surface
of straight-grained hardwood, daz-
zled youngsters. Its easy-steering
maneuverability reassured par
ents.
Although Aliens patents have
long since run out, his sled is
holding its own against all COM
ers, and was first to eliminate
the sharp points at the ends of
the steel runners and to groove
runners for better grip on icy
surfaces.
Once a sled finds its way under
the Christmas tree, it's mostly
doWnhill from there on.

Farmers Warned
On New Disease

Livestock raisers were warned
today to watch for signs of droop-
ing ears and a listless attitude in
cattle and sheep during the next
few months.
These may be signs of an out
break of growing winter disease
threat known as listeriosis, says
the American Foundation for An
imal Health. The worst danger
season for losses from this dis
ease extends from December
through March, according to the
Foundation.
Listeriosis, first recognized in
cattle and sheep less than 20 years
ago, appears primarily as a brain
inflammation in these animals Fe-
yer may be the first sign of an
outbreak, followed by stupor,
dropping of an ear, paralysis of
the jaw, and sometimes an eye in
Illumination.
"Listeriosis may be more COM
mon than most livestock owners
realize" Foundation officials said.
Accurate diagnosis of the condi-
ton requires laboratory tests to is
olate the organism which causes
the disease"
The exact method by which lis
teriosis is transmitted has not been
determined, the Foundation said,
but soil contamination or carrier
animals may be responsible.

OLDEST POLICY

A history of the insurance busi-
ness would have to include an ac-
count of bottomry a form of
marine insurance believed to have
been developed by the ancient
Phoenicians. The information
service of Employers Mutuals of
Wausau, Wis, explains that bot
tomry was a system in which a
shipowner obtained a loan on a
ship and cargo. If the voyage was
completed, the borrower repaid
the loan at high interest rate,
but if the ship was lost, he paid
nothing.

2 Bills for U. s. Aid
In School Shortages
Advanced 10 Senate

The House has sent to the Sen
ate two different bills to aid
school districts suffering financi-
ally from an oversupply of chill
dren of Federal workers.
Prospects are dim for any Sen
ate action on either measure, as
Congress drives toward adjourn
ment July 81. But the bills will
be ready for whatever considera-
tion the Senate decides to give
them next session.
$50 Million Year.
The second measure, author
izing about $50 million year for
two years for maintenance and
operation of schools in areas hit
by the Federal impact" of Gov
ernment installations. passed the
House late yesterday, after
lengthy debate.
The funds would be allocated
to the States by the United
States Office of Education. under
a complicated formula. But
there would be less money avail
able this fiscal year and next
fiscal year than the year ended
last June 80.
No funds would be given to
the District of Columbia schools.
But nearby Virginia and Mary
land would benefit to a lesser
degree than they did last year.
Sill Million for Area.
Official estimates from the Of
flee of Education places the
possible funds available to coun-
ties in the Washington Metro
politan Area at about Sill million,
some 100000 short of the
money allocated during the year
ended June 80.
The earlier House passed bill
for aid to schools would au-
thorize another $227 million for
construction of school facilities
for children in overcrowded
districts.
Both measures went to the
Senate Committee on Labor and
Public Welfare, where it was in
dicated no action is expected
during the rest of this season.
