OTTAWA, ILL.,, Aug. 81 R.-
Richard Begun, IA, apparently
playing the role Of a frontiers
man. has eluded a sheriff's posse
for eight days.
Deputy Sheriff Tim Haley said
the boy, armed with an air rifle,
knife and ak. has been hiding
Iout, in a wooded area along the
Illinois-Michigan canal west OF
Ottawa.
Hes been spotted a number
of times, but we haven't been
able to track him down." Mr..
Haley said. He said Searchers
tried to find him yesterday. "but
couldn't even catch sight Of
him."
The boy is the son Of widowed
Mrs. Annette Begun, a waitress.
She told authorities her son
often expressed a desire to re-
live the life of a frontiersman.
The boy left his home August
81 with the ak and knife and an
Undetermined amount Of cash.
Later, he obtained an air rifle
which he used to take a few
pot shots at some Ottawa boys,
authorities said.
The shots missed their target.
Authorities are puzzled about

Decision Near. on Rival

One of the big improvements

much Of the static. With the
advent Of DINE in 1852. aircraft

In effect, it gave the pilot
"a direction indicator and a dis
tance-measurer in a single unit,
but did not permit a communica-
ton channel on the VOR.
In 1851, the Navy paid for de-
Ivelopment of a unit that would

Taxes levied in 1855 by State

partment reported yesterday.
Levies for 1855 totaled about

a one-fourth higher than in 1886
and almost double those of 1945

than in 1854.
Changes ranged from an in.

in Iowa.
Taxes levied per acre of farm
real estate averaged 81 cents in
1855 compared with 80 cents in

A decision expected to resolve
the long controversy over the
Nations air navigation systems
Is in the making here today.
The Air Co-ordinating Com
mittee, interdepartmental policy

at the Commerce Department
and expects to have an answer
by mid-afternoons -
That answer very possibly Will
be a marrying" of parts Of the
system now used by civil avia-
tion-VORiDME (for Very High
Frequency Omni-Directional Ra-
dio Range Distance Measuring
Equipment) and the military's
favorite, TACAN (for Tactical
Air Navigation).
Recent moves of the Civil
Aeronautics Administration for
new purchases of VOR equip
ment would seem to indicate
its retention and expansion is
likely.
Such a marriage" would use
the VOR with TACAN'S dis
tance-measuring equipment.
On Same Bands
Millions have been spent for
the two rival systems, which as
they are being used now, are
not compatible in the same air
space. The DINE and TACAN
use the same frequency bands
and would jam each other out
If operated together.
The military contends it could
not use VOR /DME during peace
time domestic flights and their
own TACAN in tactical battle
field instances. 1t would mean
that military planes would have
to carry both sets Of the ex-
pensive and heavy equipment.
Sitting in the background, but
still with a loud unofficial voice,
is the private aviation interest.

Inquiries addressed to the Editor
will be answered in conjunction
with the Wilmington Social Sc
curity Office.
Q. Here is my problem. About
years ago took a job as a
saleslady, but because 1 didn't
want my employer to know how
old I was, 1 gave my wrong age
when I applied for my social Sc
curity card. Next year I'll be
eligible for old-age insurance
benefits. Will have much trouble
proving I'm actually IS? Ado.
A. No problem here. Simply
bring some old document with
you when you file your applica-
tion for benefits. The Social Sc
curity Administration has had a
lot of experience with human ma
ture, and knows that many peo-
pie sometimes give an unreliable
birth date for their own personal
reasons. Many types of evidence
are acceptable for proving your
age: a birth or baptismal certifi-
cate, Family Bible, marriage rec
ord, insurance policy, census or
voting record = any. document
showing your age that was re-
Smyrna times., 1956-11-08

corded a reasonable time ago. The
district Office will send you such
a list, and it might not be bad
idea to ask them for Form
OAAN-7003, which can be used
to amend your social security
record by advising them of your
true date of birth.
Q. I was 65 last month and I'm
stin working full time. I thought
that when you reach 65 your en-
ployer stops deducting a social
security tax, but according to my
pay check stub, it's still being
deducted. Isn't my employer in
error? C.M.B.
A. Definitely not. So long as
you work in employment covered
by the Social Security Act, you
contribute a percentage of your
earnings and continue to build
UP social security credits for
yourself. Your age does not mat
ter.
@. 1 understand that if you're
72 you can receive your social Sc
curity benefits regardless of how
much you're earning. I'll be 72
next month and 1 have a good
job which / want to keep. My
employer thinks I'm younger. If
I file a claim will my boss find
out and suspect my true age?
A. ID.
A. No, if you tell the repre-
sentative that you do not want
your employer to be contacted
during the processing of your
claim. Incidentally, the Bureaus
records are kept strictly conf
Dental and cannot be released to
anyone without your expressed
authorization.

Color Helps
Give Family
Efficiency Lift

Color plays an important role
in promoting efficiency and a
feeling of well-being in the FAM
lily circle.
The value of interior color
was shown recently in a two
year study by Johns Hopkins
University of $500 Baltimore
school children.
After a year in attractively
color-styled classrooms, the pu-
pills boosted their average grades
8 percent and their attendance
Is percent above the previous
year spent in drab classrooms.
Home-owners can brighten the
lives of their families in much
the same way by following these
four guides for interior color
styling:
/. Two or three bright colors
in one room can make it cheer
full and pleasant. But limit bright
colors to three.
2. Warmly painted windows
and panel doors add appeal to
the walls of any room. For an
especially attractive effect in a
large room, ponderosa pine doors
and windows can be painted in
hues which subtly contrast with
the wall color. Small rooms,
however, should have doors and
windows painted to match the
walls. Wood windows are the
only type that can be painted
or stained for these decorative
effects.
3. Dark colors make a ceiling
seem lower, while light colors
give the room height.
A. Any room seems to shrink
in size the moment dark colors
are applied, but light colors
make it appear to expand.
