probably the two best colts in
the country, were missing from
the mile and one-sixteenth be-
cause Of recent ailments, but
there was still plenty Of speed
in the field. And there might
be a budding 3-year-old Derby
hopeful in the crowd.
Flying Fury Early Choice.
Cain Hoy Stables Flying Fury,
third in the recent Garden State
behind Summer Tan, but win
ner Of the Champagne Stakes,
figured to be the early favorite
at about 21a to /.
Montpelier's Saratoga shaped
up as second choice after the
scratching of Eugene Constan-
tin, jr.'s, Our Prince, who had
been paired with his Stablemate,
Amber's Folly. Saratoga won
the Spalding Lowe Jenkins last
week at Laurel.
The remainder Of the field in
cluded Mrs. James Krieger's
Panmure, Christiana Stables
Thinking Cap. E. K. Bryson's
Kinda Smart, winner of Thurs
days Pimlico Breeders Stake.
Maine Chance Farms Model Ace,
w. Alton Jones' Brother Tex,
Carr Hatch's Mr.. Brief, Rokeby
Stables Golden Lane, and How
ard A. Jones Optimum.
Endurance Questioned.
Kinda Smart won the six-fur-
long Tyro Stakes at Monmouth
Park and was second in four
other outings, but the mile and
one-sixteenth might be too long
for the son of High Lea-March
Scholar.
Brother Tex, the well-bred son
of War Admiral Our Page, won
the six-furlong Sanford Stakes
at Saratoga. and the seven
furlong Breeders Futurity at
Keeneland. The colt, Saratoga,
a son Of Blenheim u-Shipshape
II, won handily but in slow time
over a muddy track. Nick Shuk,
a favorite and consistent winner
at Pimlico. rode Saratoga in the
Jenkins and probably will be UP
today.
Ed Plesa. a leader on the Ohio
circuit this year, will ride Mr..
Brief, and Pete Anderson, a
stranger in these parts, win be
astride Brother Tex.
Canadiana Wins Feature.
Canadiana, a filly owned by
Edward p. Taylor Of Toronto
gained narrow victory yester-
day over male rivals in the
Cockeysville purse.
The Canadian-bred daughter
Of Chop Chop and Iribelle is at
Pimlico for the $l5,000-added
Gallorette stakes November II
and yesterdays showing will
make the 4-year-old one Of the
favorites.
Lasting under Eldon Nelson's
hard riding, Canadiana won by
q neck from Thomas Corcoran's
Stepped Upper. who showed good
late speed after getting away to
a slow start. Canadiana paid
$40.
Mrs. G. A. Lyons Penocc, who
was in front Of Canadiana In
the backstretch, was third.
Willie Hartack, one Of the
leading jockeys on the New Jer-
sey-Delaware : Maryland circuit
this year, rode three winners
yesterday. He was up on Rose
hue at $3.50. Guided Bomb at
$4.80 and King Pomp at 5000.

A sub-deb Christmas-tim ques-
ton is invariably should I give
him a Christmas present"
Ma say mo" Pa say what
difference does it make" younger
brother SCOTS at the whole idea.
Mamas point is well taken -
"it might seem presumptious." And
sometimes It does, particularly if
the boy or his mother suspects that
he Is being sought as husband
bait.
But If the boy is a good friend,
not suspicious Of your motives,
why not give him a little token
gift at Christmas2
Years ago when girls were chap
erOned TO the hilt, the rule was
more Or less that girls did not give
gifts to boy friends unless they
were engaged. These days there is
more casual attitude toward dat
ing Che Dutch Treat date Is con
sidered 0key and home entertain
ment Of even casual friends is ac-
cepted.
Girls think nothing Of knitting a
pair Of argyles for a classmate or
embr0idering initials on a sweater
for a male acquaintance, so what
would be wrong with a tiny gift to
a boy during the holiday season.
He certainly shouldn't get the
wrong impression If she dates him
during the Christmas season or he
is a guest at her home and she
presents him with a little gift.

.eWeIfare State Again?

In opening the Conference of
Mayors in Washington, President
Eisenhower told the chief execu-
tives of more than 200 American
cities that nuclear weapons that
"appall the imagination" have
brought municipal and Federal
government closer together. And
while stressed this community Of
interest in civil defense, the joint
efforts should include education,
juvenile deliquency and child well
fare.
"0ut Of these consultations, the
President said, should come a
clearer view of what each echelOn
of Government should do and the
solution of group problems by CO.
operation and not by cOmpulsion. I"
Later in his address he em-
phasized local authority and local
responsibility, pointing out that the
Constitution recognized a division
of powers between the Federal
Government and the States, and
added that this "has been abused to
some extent"
We would think that education,
juvenile delinquency and child well
fare would properly be matters of
local rather than Federal concern.
AS for civil defense, the authorities
in the Federal city of Washington
itself disagree on whether we
should hide in sO-called Shelters
or rush out of town to escape the
A bombs. So maybe that should be
local matter too.
But when the President talks
about "cOmpulsiOn" it suggests that
perhaps the Constitution is in for
some more abuse.

Civil Defense Notes
Especial Weapons and Mobile
support DiVislOns)
BY D. PRESTON LEE
State Director Of Civil Defense

olAUb UlreclOf Oh NiVil UeleuSe
Whenever people talk about the
A-bOmb, the word 'radiOactivity"
crops up. It usually is mentioned
in aWed tones as if it referred to
some sort Of black magic, myster-
iOus and deadly.
Deadly it can be, but radioactive
ity is not mysterious. More is
known about it and what it can
do to people than is known, for in
stance, about infantile paralysis
or the common cold
Injury by radioactivity does not
mean that you surely will be left
cripple or die a slow death.
Under modern treatment, you have
as much chance Of recovering from
a dosage Of radiOactivity as from
any everyday accident.
The big dangers from an A-bomb
las from any bOmb-are the blast
and the heat. At Nagasaki and
Hiroshima, only about is per cent
Of all deaths and injuries we're
caused by radiOactivity alone.
The important thing following
an A-bOmb attack is that radioac-
tive areas be detected quickly and
that victims of the rays be cared
for promptly. To do this, it will
be necessary to have specialists on
hand, men who can move into a
bombed area, quickly measure the
amount of radiOactivity, order eva
cuatiOns of contaminated neighbOr-
hoods, single out radiation victims
for treatment and take all possible
precautions.
In Delaware's Civil Defense, this
will be the responsibility of the
Special Weapons Defense Division
under Frederic Stow, research
chemist with Hercules Powder
Company. This division also is
planning for chemical warfare de-
Tense.
Specifically, Mr.. Slows division
is charged with organizing and
training six state teams-three for
Pathological and three for chemical
defense-and also for helping
county CD directors to establish
and train local teams.
The Pathological men carry geig-
er counters, survey meters and
dOsimeters for various phases of
radiation detection. The chemical
teams will carry portable labOra-
tory kits to make on-the-spot tests
to determine the presence and
amount Of lethal chemicals.
Mr.. Stow reports that five of his
six teams are organized with about
40 volunteers. All are men with
technical backgrounds either as
chemists or engineers.
Also, the division is ready to
train local teams as requested by
county and town CD directors. 1--WE
want to train all the key people
Milford chronicle., 1954-12-17

in the state, Mr.. Stow SAYS. $50
that our method of operations viii
be standardized"
The Special Weapons volunteers
put in many hours of planning and
training. Each man undergOes a
20-hOur course developed by the
division. Also, there are monthly
meetings. Team drills and special
courses are planned for the fu-
ture.
Directly under Mr.. Stow is Rob
ert w. Dawson, deputy division
chief. Section chiefs are: DR.. John
F. Lontz, Pathological; and DR.. Earl
AbrahamsOn, chemical. DR.. Lontz.
who has been with the organization
since its beginning, played a major
part in the overall planning.
Another volunteer CD division
that is we'll along in its prepara-
tions is Mobile Support under
Thomas F. Bayard, III. A mobile
support group is conceived as a
fully self-sufIicient CD task force.
capable of moving into a stricken
area and providing all phases of
emergency help.
Equipped with everything from
bulldozers to band-aids, a mobile
group, which would be stated by
$50 trained personnel, would have
sections for fire and police protec-
tiOn, rescue, welfare and engineer
ing work. Delaware's CD plan calls
for four such massive groups, two
in New Castle County and one
each in Kent and Sussex.
To date, one mobile group is be-
ing organized as an experiment to
gain experience before forming the
others. This is known as Mobile
Support Group No. 1, under c. Rus
sell Herbst, laboratory superihtend-
ent with the DUPONT Company.
1t now includes three sections
ready to operate. They are: Police,
under Corporal Joseph P. Clark,
Delaware State Police, with 81
trained auxiliary CD police; A res
cue Section, under DR.. Edward T.
Cline, DUPONT Company, with %
trained volunteers in two teams
equipped with a $4,000 rescue
truck; Communication, under Ray
mOnd De COurcelle, with IA anna
teur TadiOmen, each with his own
radiO-equipped car.
The group also is forming engi-
neering, health, special weapons
and welfare sections.

FORT RECONSTRUCTED

WARSAW, III. - (P - Some Of
the original walnut logs used by
Major Zachary Taylor in 1914 to
build Fort Edward are being used
to reconstruct part of the ancient
defense work. The logs were, for
many years, part of another build
ing which has been torn down to
recover the logs. They will be used
to duplicate one of the four block
houses that stood at the corners
Of the fort, the westernmost U. S.

The gift shouldn't be so elabor-
ate he suspects you are trying to
hook him. A handkerchief, tie
or tie clasp are inexpensive pres
ents that show thoughtfulness. F A
wallet, gloves or cuff links are for
someone you know well. A real
expenditure of cash is an invest
ment that should only be made for
a husband-tO-be.
If you feel your little gift will
embarrass him, don't give him
anything, particularly if you sus-
pect he cannot afford to give you
anything.
Some girls handle the situation
this way:
They purchase a little gift that
may be used perhaps by male
member Of the family IL the plan
doesn't work. Then they wrap it up
and tag it for their current beau.
The present is put somewhere un-
der the tree, upside down $50 the
tag doesn't show It is then handy
in case Joe brings Mary a Christ
mas present If he doesn't nothing
need be said about it, although
sometimes misehievOus young bro
theirs will spill the beans.
There is one case that was to be
handled that way that didn't work,
however. A young man was wOr-
ried about whether his girl would
give him a present, His mother
advised him to have something in
his pocket just in case, suggest
ing that if he had something small
enough no one would be the wiser
and he could leave It in his over
coat pocket until the girl present
ed him with his present, if she did
The girl had her present under the
tree but since he didn't give her
anything, she didn't give him any
thing and vice versa.
Both people were very disap-
pointed. Each hadn't wanted to
embafrass the other. Years later
they learned what happened.

another. Some bows are double
and some single. Ends are cut in
special ways. The satin side Of
ribbons must always face outward
And bows must stay tied.
