To Stort Center?
Mrs. G. B. L., Churchton

Mrs. G. B. L., CHuTchton
Our club is hoping to in
terest the community in build
ing a teen-age center, vitally
needed in this area.
Has any one any experience
IN or understanding of this
sort that they would be will
ing to share. We have no idea
of the best way to begin.
What things would be Of
most interest to the average
teenager? What type of build
ing would be most useful?
Least wasteful? What activi-
ties would be possible at small
expense? What sport programs
have proven most successful3
We are hoping to obtain five
to eight acres. How to plan TO
make the project self-support-
ing would also have to be con-
Sidered Also what part the
teenagers themselves should
take in planning and operating
the center
We would deeply appreciate
hearing of other communities
experiences along this line. 1t
may help us avoid some of the
mistakes amateurs are apt to
make.
If there is any reading mat

minded and civic-minded clubs.

Impressions Given of
Latest A-Bo1nb Blast
BY RUTH DEAN

Even after witnessing the
detonation of an atomic bomb
at eight miles range, Mrs. KeS-
ter Hastings, wife of the Army
QuartermaSter General. says
"it is awfully hard to realize
this could really happen to us
at any time"
Just returned from spending
two weeks in the Nevada desert
as a participant in the long
delayed A-blast. last Thursday,
Mrs. Hastings said she hoped
that the test and the resultant
publicity about its effects will
waken communities all over
the country to the need for a
good civil defense organiza-
ton"
Mrs. Hastings was one of six
representatives of the Ameri-
can Red Cross who were among
1900 observers of the great
nuclear explosion on Yucca
Flat which battered the tiny
test town of Survival City.
Felt Impact
Though Mrs. Hastings was
not as close as some partici-
pants who experienced the full
effects of the conclusion in a
trench two miles from ground
zero, she Saw-and felt its i'm
pact eight miles away on News
Mob where the largest number
of observers were assembled.
Like others who have tried
to describe their first impress
sions of an A-bomb, Mrs. Hast
ingS finds it difficult" to put
into words.
"It all happened so quickly,
/ still can't recall the exact
sequence of events" she said.
There was a sudden flash
brighter than sunlight that lit
up the sky and a sensation OF
seeing red; then the sound and
shock wave"
I'VE all agreed afterward, it
was going to be hard to explain
to people-to see this beautiful
thing and at the same time
realize what a terrific thing
1t is"
At no time did she feel any
fear either in anticipation or
realization, she explained be
cause we knew what to expect"
Mass Feeding
AS a member of a mass
emergency feeding team. Mrs.
Hastings was kept busy pass
ing out coffee and doughnuts
to civil defense workers in the
early morning hours preceding
the test as well as the nine
previous nights the test had
to be postponed.
1--WE got used to weather
brief1ngs," she said with a
smile. but added with some
concern in her voice that she
hoped the people in the rest
of the Nation fully understood
why the test was postponed so
many times.
Within 80 minutes of the
time Thursdays bomb went
off. the feeding team had a
field breakfast ready for 1900
people. Mrs. Hastings brought
back a souvenir menu" which
showed the volunteers ate
heartily of orange juice, bacon
and eggs, rolls and coffee.
They all had good appetites.
too" she added.
The day after the test, Mrs.
Hastings accompanied n er
group to inspect what was left
of Survival City. She was i'm
pressed with the intactness Of
the cinder-block and concrete
steel-reinforced homes, she
said, as compared to the state
of rubble in which they found
brick and Wooden-built houses
In the back of where the brick
house had been, she said they
noted a television set still
standing upright"
Canned goods were Strewn
around the streets of the

was damaged except for dents.
She even saw some glass jars
that were still intact.

Know Your Stute's
Driving Laws;

The following is second of
a series covering the law on
motoring in Montana, the
first having been published
in last weeks issue of The
Glacier Reporter.
Montana Road Signs
The Stop Sign is represented
by an eight-sided figure. The
motor vehicle code requires that
all motor vehicles entering a
main highway from a side road,
private road or driveway come
to a complete stop, and right
of-way must be given to vehicles
travelling on the main highway.

right-of-way to be given to mo-
florists using the other highway.
You are warned of the presence
of the stop sign by this sign.
Slow down. Be prepared to stop.
Be alert to the diamond-shaped
figure containing the words,
Narrow Road. Our highways are
constantly being widened and
improved. Consequently there
are portions that are narrower
than others. However, there is
room for two cars to pass if mo-
florists use caution as to not
hog" the other motorists share
of the highway.
Although the law does not
state specific speed limit
through school zones outside in
corporated cities and towns, mo-
florists should be alert for child
rem playing in this area. We love
our children. Drive slowly. The
school sign is represented by a
diamond-shaped figure.

A MONTANAN'S

There were several skirmishes
last week in the perennial battle
for more federal money for Mon
tana projects. Here's what hap
pened:
Senator Mike Mansfield ap-
peared before a Senate appro-
priations subcommittee to docu-
ment the need for funds to con-
struct a second power plant at
Fort Peck. The plant, he said,
would more than pay for itself.
He supported the proposed flood
control projects at Belt, West
Glendive, Billings. Havre, Glas-
gov and on the Sun River near
Great Falls, several irrigation
projects, and the multi-purpose
Yellowtail Dam.
The proposed partnership
plan for Yellowtail, he said,
would involve a delay of four
to five years, Decentralization, re-
authorization, re-negotiation and
many other obstacles" He asked
for IS million to start Yellow
tail now, adding that If partner
ship interests persist, that can
be settled at a later date when
the power plant is scheduled for
construction.

Aluminium Empire?
Senator Murray, as chairman
of the Interior Committee, blast
ed the Big Three of the aluminium
industry last week. He called for
antitrust action against Reynolds
Metal Company and Kaiser
Aluminium Corporation on the
grounds that they have been
guilty of monopolistic practices
in distribution of aluminium, and
said similar action against AL
GOA should be considered. He
said the whole aluminium indus
try should be Investigated, in
view of charges by independent
producers that they are being
squeezed out of business.
Mining VS.. WiIdIife
Capitol veterals rubbed their
eyes with disbelief when various
Hobbies and government agenc-
les stated their positions on S.
l713, bill by Senator Clinton
Anderson of New Mexico which
would update the mining law of
1872. With uranium prospectors
a dime a dozen, many weekend
miners" stake out mining claims
which they don't work, thereby
getting exclusive right to the
choice fishing and camping IA
cilities and impeding timber and
grazing management.
At present all rights to surface
uses go with the mining claims.
The Anderson bill would sepa-
rate mining and surface rights.
What had Capitol Hill agog was
the fact that miners, wildlife
conservationists, lumbermen, the
Forest Service, Department of
Interior and others, were for the
bill. Harmony like that is rare
indeed.
Carp a DeIieaey?
In case you're willing to be
convinced that carp is a tasty
fish, when properly prepared, the
April issue of Wyoming Wildlife,
published at Cheyenne, carries
an article on the carp's prep
aration and cooking.

President Extends
Gettysburg History
In Overnight Visit
BY the Assoeiuted Press

President Eisenhower slept
last night in his new farm home.
1t was his first overnight stay
at Gettysburg and it was a
matter of community as well as
presidential pride.
The Gettysburg Times, for
example, noted the occasion.
The paper sent flowers to the
Eisenhower place and its lead
story said in part:
"Other Presidents have slept
in Gettysburg, including the
martyred Abraham Lincoln. but
none slept on their own property.
President Eisenhower becomes
the first president to do So"
Accompanied by the con-
tractor, Charles H. Tompkins of
Washington, the President mo-
tored TO the l89-acre farm to
check further on construction
details.
From the White House, Mr..
Eisenhower took bedding. His
valet, John Moaney, made up
the beds and cooked dinner.
The President got back to
Washington in time for a morn
ing cabinet meeting.

The Legion unit is no longer

Child Services now will give
emergency money only in GER
tain cases of long-term rehabili-

also Red Feather agencies, will
continue to provide comprehen-
siye service, including emer-
