was after dark before Charley
Dumas was guided back to a
small room under huge Mel
bourne Cricket Grounds for an
interview with the press, which
was prepared to hurl questions
at the rate of 10 a minute, in
as many different languages.
The high jumper had come
a long way in short while and
his sudden Olympic fame threw
him into a state of bewilder-
ment. Questions in German,
Italian, Russian and French
didn't help his state of confu-
sion.
Charley had started on his
road to fame one night last
June during the American
Olympic track and field trials.
That night Dumas put in an
appearance at the Los Angeles
Coliseum without a competitors
ticket. Either his coach had
forgotten to give it to him. or
Charley had forgotten to pick
1t up.
In any event. he was on the
outside looking in. and the Coli
scum gatekeepers weren't in a
mood to listen to a youngsters
story that he had forgotten his
ticket. Dumas had to dig down
and pull UP enough cash to buy
his way into the Coliseum.
The price must have been
worth it, for that night, Dumas,
only 10 and a junior at Compton
Junior College, high-jumped his
way to place on the Olympic
team. Then. as most we're leav-
ing the stadium, Dumas stayed

Give Cows Lots Of Water
For High Milk Production

The amount of water that dairy
cattle drink has a lot to do with
how much milk they produce, says
County Agent VIM. H. Henderson.
Tests have shown that providing
water so that animals have free
access to it, increases the milk
yield of high-producing cows about
four per cent over watering twice
daily; and six to eleven per cent
over watering. once daily.
This isn't hard to understand,
points out Mr.. Henderson, when
you consider that milk is 81 per
cent water. Including both the
water in the feed and water which
is consumed as such, cows will
take in about 3.5 to 5.5 pounds of
water per pound of milk produced.
High-protein feeds increase water
consumption somewhat. From 12
to Is gallons per head daily is an
average amount for a herd, in
cluding both COWS in milk and
dry cows: However, cows produc-
ing rs to 100 pounds of milk a day
may drink 35 to 40 gallons of water
daily, explains the county agent.
For a COW to drink the maximum
amount, the water must be easily
accessible, fresh, clean, and at
desirable temperature.

Safety Council Notes

Common sense precautions on
holiday safety can help make
Christmas a time of joy and good
will rather than a time of needless
tragedy, Mrs. William N Cam,
vice president for home safety of
the Delaware Safety Council, de-
clared yesterday.
She suggested some precautions
to be taken in the use Of Christ
mas trees and tree lights and
Christmas trimmings, and in the
selection of toys for children.
The precautions on Christmas
trees are designed to guard against
letting the tree dry and become a
fire hazard. Mrs. Cam suggested
these four points on trees and tree
lights:
1. Don't but your trees too early;
store it in a cold place until ready
to set is up; then erect it away
from radiators and other sources
of heat. Never place it so that it
will block an exit.
2. Make a fresh cut diagOnally
in the trunk at least one inch above
the original cut, and keep the base
in a water-filled scontainer all dur
ing the holidays. Don't try to fire.
proof your tree with chemicals.
3. Check the wiring of all tree
lights for defects and loose sockets
and avoid overlooking circuits with
this added illumination.
4. Turn off the tree lights when
no one is in the room, and take the
Milford chronicle., 1956-12-07

of sparks. Just as with tree, .as
soon as they become dry, they
should be removed.
2. Look for fre-proof or fire-re-
sistant labels on the decorations
you buy. Take advantage of all that
the manufacturers have been able to
accomplish to make your Christmas
a safe one.
8. Never use lighted candles near
green's or other possibly fammable
decorations, and never set lighted
candle in a window where curtains
NAV blow into the flame.
4. Clean up after Christmas gift
Milford chronicle., 1956-12-07

opening. A cigarette spark can
turn the leftover wrappings into
the starting fuel for another Yule-
tide fire tragedy.
5. If you are having a party or
a family get-together, be sure there
are plenty of ashtrays conspicu-
ously available; and avoid over
crowding your home with guests
Turning to toys, Mrs. Cam noted
that youngsters will play with al
most anything that is given them;
and that adults are responsible
for seeing that there is no danger
involved in their fun.

tree down as soon as it begins to
shed needles or show signs of dry
ness. 1t is full of highly combus-
tible natural pitch and resin, and
when dry it is a veritable tinder-
box of trouble. 1t burns so rapidly
that it is virtually impossible to
halt the blaze by methods ordinarily
available.
Trimmings and paper wrappings
also carry some dangers with them,
which can be avoided by attention
to five points. she said. These are:
/. Greens should be placed away
from heat and all possible sources
Milford chronicle., 1956-12-07
She urged parents to:

1. Select safe toys. Electrical
toys should bear the Underwriters
Laboratories Label. Toy movie pro-
jectors should be equipped with
Safety Film. Toys for the very
small should have non-poisonous
paint job, smooth edges and no
small parts that could be pulled
off an0 swallowed.
2. Select suitable toys. This is a
part of choosing safe toys, but re-
me ember that what is safe for the
si1-year-old may be very dangerous
in the hands of the less expert
Milford chronicle., 1956-12-07

enced, less dexterous three-yearl
old.
8. Teach safe habits of play. The
youngster who receives his firsI
electric train should also receive
careful safety instruction in just
how to operate his new toy. Super
vision and example are important
if children are to form the safety
habits that will protect them as
they use their Christmas toys
throughout the year.

If you are past 40, but not

Local Mail Carriers TO Use Nev Warming
Lights On Rural Route Deliveries

Bluffton's rural mail carriers this
week welcomed the announcement by
the Ohio State Highway Department
that it was now legal for them to use
safety flasher warning lights on their
vehicles while stopping along the road
to discharge mail.
The new law was passed by the
101st General Assembly of the State
Legislature last year. The law
amended existing statutes of the Re-
vised Code of Ohio, permitting rural
mail delivery vehicles the use of flash
ing lights"
Woodrow Little, Route l carrier,
and Harry Bogart, Route 2 carrier,
both welcomed the news that they
would be able to install the safety
flasher lights on their vehicles.
Little said that he had installed
similar lights back during the war
but that they had to be removed as
only buses and ambulances were per-
mitted to use them. He added that
with the heavy traffic on his route
which covers u. S. 25, U. S. 80 anc
State Routes SO and 103, there are
times that such safety devices would
be useful.
Bogart said he would definitely in.
