Minis Takes On

Chance Tonight

Winner; Even Odds

CLEVELAND, Jan. l2.-Mid-
dleweight Holly Minis Of WASH
ington gets the chance OF his
lifetime tonight, fighting Rocky
Castellani. an adopted Cleve-
lander. in q nationally televised
12-rounder. The winner gets a
championship bout against Bobo
Olson.
(Tonight's fight will be on
television in Washington over
WTOP-TV, Channel 8, at 10
PM
Olson himself is to be among
ringsiders tonight, and in a cer-
emony preliminary to the fight
is scheduled to sign to fight the
winner here in March.
Not since George Abrams
fought Tony Zale for the middle
weight crown in 1941 has a
Washington fighter been this
close to a championship.
For Minis, a steady workman
but not always a brilliant fighter.
the chance has been a long
time coming. After years Of
apprenticeship in the prelim-
inaries and on the fringe of the
big time, he finally has worked
up to such a high place that
boxing's bigwigs no longer can
ignore him. The international
Boxing Club has a hand in pro-
noting tonight's fight, and also
in the proposed March title fight.
GiardelIo Bypassed.
Minis is rated the No. 2 chal-
lenger on the National Boxing
Association list and Castellani
No. 8, with these positions re-
versed on Nat Fleischer's Ring
Magazine ladder. joey Giardello
of Philadelphia is regarded as
the No. contender, but he has
to be bypassed at the moment.
Castellani is a 6-to-5 favorite
over Minis, but there were indi-
cations the odds might even OF
by fight time.
1t could be a real exciting fight
between these nationally ranked
160-pounders, but there also is
danger that it may degenerate
into something dull.
Castellani has various styles Of
fighting, but primarily he hooks

Everyone should know the
following, well established facts
about exercise:
/. Exercise is one Of the fac
tors which contributes greatly
to physical fitness. But remem-
Der. capacity for exercise diff
fers with the individual.
Sometimes even young people
do not react well to it.
2. Your ability to recuperate
after exercise is a good gauge
of how much you should take,
whatever your age. If you are
tired and weak following ex-
ercise. even after a rest period,
you are doing too much. If
your heart and breathing are
still too fast after ten minutes
following exercise, you do not
react well to it.
3. Hard competitive games
should not be played after the
age Of 80 or IS unless you have
been playing them constantly
and are accustomed to them.
4. II you are out of training
you should not compete with
those in training or with those
much younger than you.
5. You should have your
heart and blood pressure
checked before beginning any
course OF exercise.
6. The improved circulation
which exercise demands makes
the heart stronger and more
efficient. Prolonged inactivity
does just the opposite.
Z. II you are soft" or out
Of condition you will need a
conditioning period. BY this
I mean that you will have to
begin exercise very slowly and
build up the amount you do
very gradually.
8. Swimming and golf are
two sports you can profit by
at any age if you are moderate.
9. Exercise is a splendid an
tidote for tensions and fatigue.
Few persons do enought physi-
cal exercise to experience
physical fatigue. 1t may feel
like that but more often you
actually are tired from ten
sion. A period of exercise will
refresh you.
10. Protect your heart curve.

morning and begin strenuous

PEOPLE WOULD PAY DEARLY FOR WHAT TAXES
PRIVATE HELLS CANYON WOULD BRING
By CONG LEE METCALF
By CONG. LEE METCALF

The Federal Power Commission s
decision to permit the Idaho Power
Company to build three low dams
at Hells Canyon, Brownlee and Ok
bow has not ended the controversy
there.
Still very much alive in Congress
are bills providing instead for the
single federal high Hells Canyon
dam. This is proposed in the Senate
by Senator Morse, supported among
others by Senators Murray and Mans
field. In the House, Mrs. Pfost is the
author of the bill which | co-spon-
sored.
Both Senator Morse's bill and Mrs.
Pfost's bill are on the way through
Congress and will be further con-
sidered next session. subcommittee
of both the Senate and the House
Committees on Interior md Insular
Affairs have reported favorably on
the Hells Canyon bills. Early in Janu-
airy or February there should be final
committee action on this legislation,
and if the favorable report of the
SlADCOuIlIlllltGS 10 1QopISu Tie Dll&S
will be cleared for action on the floor
in the respective houses.
One of the reasons given by the
Federal Power Commission for grant
ing the license to the Idaho Power
Company was that although the fed
eral dam would produce electrical
energy cheaper than the Idaho Power
Company could, we must also take
into consideration "the much higher
annual cost of taxes paid under pri-
vate development or, in some few
instances, the minor annual payments
by some federal projects in lieu of
state taxes"
This claim that private power
companies are taxpaying enter
prises and the federal projects are
not is an argument that is always
advanced for private development.
But in the present instance the
state and federal government and
the people pay dearly in order to
receive some private power taxes.
There is not only substantial sacri-
flee in the multiple purpose bene-
fits that are a part of the develop
ment, such as flood control, recre-
alton, navigation, cheaper power,
greater storage, ETC., but there is
a~definite dollar and .cents loss in

addition to all the above mentioned
items.
The Idaho Power Company testi-
fled that the estimated taxes result
ing from its three dam scheme would
be S9,750,868 per year. This would
amount to about one-third of its
revenues, COZ going to the state and
local governments and 40ao to the
federal government. The Idaho Power
Company has asked for accelerated
tax amortization certificates and if
this request is granted the taxes will
be considerably less than the above
nine and three-quarters million.
The commission examiner found
that federal power from the proposed
high dam, considered IS a single unit
instead of as part of an integrated
system, would cost 2.7 mills per kilo-
watt hour delivered at the load CEN
ter. He found that Idaho Power Com
pany's production cost would run
$50 mills per kilowatt hour of firm
power delivered at the load center.
The average output of firm pow
err from the federal dam would be
100000 kilowatts, the examiner
said. He said the average output
of firm power from the Idaho Pow
err Company's initial installed ca
pacity would be $685. 900 kilo-
watts.
The federal power would be sold
at cost. When integrated with the
federal system in the Northwest, it
could be sold at the going Bonneville
Power administration rate of 2.34
mills per kilowatt hour, according to
the BPA's 1854 annual report
$4,000 kilowatts of federal pow
er could cost consumers ten million
dollars a year. Even making the I'M
likely assumption that Idaho Power
Company would sell at cost, the same
$4,000 kilowatts would cost con-
sumers twenty-nine million dollars
a year.
Returning now to taxes. The diff
ference between the million annual
cost of private power and the SO
million cost of the same amount of
public power is $40 million. In other
consumers of 505,000 kilo-
watts of private power would be pay
ing $19 million more than the Bonnie
Vile Power Administration rate

ON the other hand is home institution where medi-
cal and nursing care be provided-in connection

some medical nursing supervision but do not need
to be kept in hospital.
One thing we need to bear In mind in thinking and
planning for the care of the aging population is that
it isn't just people who ION the county as we
in Montana who need such services. Many folks who
have money to pay all part of the bill need the
services of nursing home In most counties there
not enough such people Justify building two institu

We always enjoy ourselves at tht

For the past few years we have

our poll.
We don't pretend to be competing
with Gallup's, of course, and because
Farmers Union people are better in
formed than most segments of the
society, they are more liberal, all of
which must be taken into considera-
ton in evaluating the results.
Because politics and candidates are
being talked about now thought a
few suggested names would start
people thinking about who they want
ed to run for what, and in announc-
ing the poll especially asked for
write-ins.
In the presidential space we didn't
supply any names. The three most
popular names were Stevenson, Ke-
fauver and Hartman, with Stevenson
getting 80 and Kefauver 83. Harri-
man got 8. Other write-ins were
Wayne Morse, Senator Russell, Eli
