Report To Parents
DIR. Martha M. Eliot
Chief, ChiIdren's Bureau

ssWhat should 1 do If a strang-
er comes to the door?" asked a
fragile looking blonde.
How hot should kid be be-
fore you call the doctor, if you
can't get his parents. I mean? ?"
queried that foot IL inch center
of Grants Pass, Oregon, Junior
High School basketball team.
The questions came from an in
tent group of youngsters. They
were all somewhat between II
and II years of age. And they
were all baby-sitters-or would-be
babysitters. They were all also
anxious enough to want to do a
good job to attend, of their own
volition, an out-of-school' hours
babysitting safety course.
The course is sponsored by the
Grants Pass Parent Teacher As
sociation. The youngsters them
selves helped form the curricu-
lum, since they chose what sub
jects they most wanted discussed.
One of the unique things about
this neighborhood project - aside
from the fact that it exists at all
lis who the instructors are.
They're volunteers. And they're
professional people from the COM
munity.
A police officer from the sta
ton house down the street is one
of the instructors, ready with a
practical answer for the worried
blonde as well as with other real
istic advice and suggestions on
other phases of protection that it
might be wise for the young tenn
porary guardian of household,
and of its precious occupants, to
know.
On another afternoon the city
recreation director explains how
to read and tell stories to small
children, including the type of
stories most apt to appeal to diff
ferent age groups. He also pass
es on valuable repertoire of
suitable games and entertaining
devices geared for the occasion.
A pediatrician answers other
questions that puzzle the teenag-
ers, mostly questions on how to
meet emergencies that they feel
they might not know how to
handle adequately. There are
searching questions on such small
emergencies, too, as how to hand
lie tantrllms and stalling about
getting to bed.
A nurse leads a session that
certainly should prepare the stu
dents to be super-sitters: the low
down on how to give an infant a
safe and proper bath and how to
change diaper with such know
how that neither baby nor baby
tender panics-nor gets stuck
with pin.
The course is such a popular

"B" is long overdue. For
years you've been forced to
go out and buy 8 to 10 diff

liquid for mirrors and win

a celluloSe for rugs, an abra-
Sive for floors and tile, a
powder for woodwork and

sponge it on, and except in
case of windows and mirrors,
you don't even have to wipe
it off. Formula "B" leaves no
sticky residue or grit. You
needn't mix or dilute it,

night he is utterly opposed to
the Vests sending ground forces
to beSieged Indo-China.

Lab Planned 10 Study
Radioactive Tuna
BY the Associated Press

HONOLULU. May 1.-The
Atomic Energy Commission may
turn a millionaire's retreat in
Hawaii into a scientific labora-
tory to study radioactive tuna.
A University of Hawaii official
said negotiations for the project
have been going on with the Acc
in Washington for some time.
1t is proposed to establish the
project on Coconut Island, owned
by California Gilman Edwin w.
Pauley. Former President Tru-
man vacationed there last year.
The scientists are checking eff
fects on tuna after exposure to
radiation from last months hy-
drogen test explosions in the Pa
cific.
One official connected with the
University Marine laboratory on
Coconut Island expressed belief
that tuna might become con-
taminated after a nuclear blast
by eating radioactive plankton
or smaller fish which had eaten
such plankton.
Those tuna then could swim
hundreds of miles to points
outside the test blast danger
somewhere they would be
caught by fishermen.
Scientists estimate such tuna
contamination is possible as far
as $50 miles from the scene of
a nuclear explosion.
