On the Air

It's a funny thing, but that
quality which Arthur Godfrey
said Julius LaRosa lost is note
worthy among the things that
have chung to him during the
past few hectic months. AS
everybody knows. with the pos
sible exception of some space
travellers recently arrived from
Mars. julius got publicly Topped
from the Arthur Godfrey payroll
last october.
In inadvertently creating
broadcasting's most sudden ce-
lebrity. Godfrey announced
that LaRosa had lost what "for
lack of a better word" Arthur
called humility. This not only
magnified the LaRosa name far
beyond any size he expected it
to- attain in 1858. Or even in
1854. It also took one word
right out of the English Ian
guage. Humility has lost all
meaning. 1t can't be used seri-
ously and any comedy connota-
tions it took on last october
have long since worn off.
Now, with LaRosa in town to
fill a singing engagement. it
seemed time to see what, if any,
thing, has worn off of him since
that momentous october morn.
The first thing that impressed
his backstage visitor was the no
ticeable change from the LaRosa
who visited Washington shortly
after the Godfrey affair.
He claimed it wasn't so. that
he had a full-f1edged case OF first
night filters, but he seemed re-
Taxed. Whether he knew 1t or
not, he was vastly relaxed in
comparison with the young man
who sat in a Mayf1ower Hotel
suite a few months back telling
and retelling the story OF his
abrubt dismissal by Godfrey.
Then he seemed about to fly
apart at the seams any min
ute. He couldn't sit still. He
unwrapped lump after lump Of
sugar for a cup of tea and it
was minutes before he realized
that what he wanted was a
spoon, not more sugar. He
seemed to be in something akin
to a state of shock.
Now he could sit calmly in his
dressing room and talk quietly
of his good fortune and how well
things have been going for him
lately. He does not have to talk
long before it becomse obvious
that his overnight rise to fame
did not go to his head as it
might easily have done.
He has not been miSled by the
new adulation into believing that
Julius LaRosa is anything but a
young man trying to get along
in show business. He is genu-
inc, he is likable and he seems
genuinely modest. He may not
be precisely humble, but who is?
He is aware, of course. that he
is a prime target, but he accepts
fhic with and h,Ino0r
Asked about rumors in the

soil, you must first know its natural
limitations. A lapd-capability map
showing the kind of soil, the Steep
ness of slope, and the degree of
erosion will help you understand
these limitations. A soil scientist
working with your local soil con-
servation district will make this
map of your farm.
Land Is Now Harder to Farm
When man first broke the prairie
he found the soil loose, mellow, and
productive. The soil was high in
organic matter because the roots,
leaves, and stems had died and
accumulated for thousands of years.
AS a result, the topsoil was 'like a
sponge" very porous, open, and
light in weight. The upper layer
let air and water enter just fast
enough for the best growth of
plants. Thus the soils were able to
absorb most of the rain and snow
and there was very little erosion on
sloping land Most streams ran
clear.
AS the land was plowed and
cultivated, the living organisms in
the soil broke down the organic
matter faster than they did under
virgin conditions. Most of the crops
grown were sold from the land.
Crop residues such as stalks, straw,
and leaves often were burned and
the soil was allowed to remain bare
for long periods. AS a result, the
average cultivated soil in the corr
belt has lost from 20 to so per cent
of its organic matter.
1t is organic matter that give:
soil in good filth a spongelikt
quality. 1t helps to keep the sol
particles apart and makes the whole
soil mass more porus.
Hard Farming Affects Tilth
Working the soil when it is to-
wet breaks down the porus crumb
in the soil. So does farming tn

This Rock
Of Ours

The other night, a few of us were
visiting Watson Roper III the Sher-
ifs office. Don Nichols, local ma
nager of the Southern Bell Tele-
phone Company, was present and
somehow, the talk switched to tele-
phones equipped with television.
s'It might surprise you,' says
Don, "but television was first used
on telephones as far back as the
twenties. The expense for such an
operation is so great and the de-
mand so little, however, that there
isn't much chance of any televised
communications system ever gain
ing popularity"
The talk then switched to the ad-
vantages of the new code word
Cypress" which will be adopted
as an exchange number here
March 27, 1855.
Advertisers are giving me a
rough time about that change"
told Don. you'd think The Key
West Citizen was responsible in.

Can you give me any clarifying

Now, perhaps I failed to mention
it but Don Nichols is a salesman

Company, that is!

listing numbers in Key West. Not
only that but it is going to tie Us
in with a uniform plan for long
distance numbers throughout the
nation. Eventually, you'll be able
to dial Boston or Los Angeles just
as easily as you do local numbers
and the calls viii go through in
stantly."
1t would have been fine if Nj
chols had stopped at that point but
what does he do? He has to go ON
telling me what a fine thing tele-
phones are - especially Southern
Bell telephonesD. They fill every
day needs and emergencies, pro-
vide for a more complete social
life, etc., etc. Heck! To hear Don
Nichols talk, there is nothing more
important in life than a telephone!

and business offices - are cheer

that Neblett is joining the fight, the

It isn't just the fact that fisher

By James Marlew

understandable since his time has
been monopolized by problems of
foreign policy.
He had no stomach for EDO, the
plan for rearming West Germany,
bringing her into a single Euro
pean army. The French them
selves had first proposed it, but the
French Assembly stalled on ap-
proving it. The French feared a
rearmed Germany and objected
to seeing France merge her army
with those of other nations.
Mendes-France said EDO didn't
have a chance. But whereas his
predecessors didn't have nerve to
call for a vote, he did. But he sat
idly by while the Assembly killed
it.
Then In a burst of action he got
together with the United States.
Britain, West Germany and others
and worked out a new plan for
rearming the Germans. This
would let them have an indepen-
dent army, allied with France,
who would also have an individual
army. Germany would join the
North Atlantic Treaty Organization
(NAT0) with the United States,
Britain, France and II others.
And NATO would be able to keep
controls on the Germans. But the
French have fewer guarantees
against resurgent Geman militar-
ism under this arrangement than
they would have under EDO. This
is still unfinished business but
Mendes-France backs it, will bring
it to Assembly vote in midi -Decem-
ber, and hopes it will pass.
If Germany does turn militaris-
tic again and breaks away from
the NATO controls, Mendes-France
will have proved to be short-sight-
ed in not fighting for EDO.

Special Safety Meeting
A special meeting will be held
by the Key West Safety Council
next Tuesday, 8 p. m. at the Lions
Den. Attempts are being made to
contact and secure representa-
tive from all local civic clubs. The
subject matter concerns $50,
tSafe-Driving) Day." Just in case
the Council is unable to reach the
proper safety officials of various
organizations, they've asked me to
publish an invitation requesting
them to attend the meeting.
Wonder if Safety Council mem.
bers ever stopped to think that this
column might not be read by every.
one? It's a nice compliment, any
way. If you're interested in Safety,
attend Tuesdays meeting.
