Gerber Quietly Storing
All Facets Of Indignation
BY JOHN McKELwAY

Rather effortlessly, two South
erners and a man from Memphis
are realizing a bountiful harvest
of indignation facts.
With scarcely a shake of the
tree. the apples come tumbling
down to be stored, presumably,
for the seasons ahead.
William Gerber, counsel of the
House committee probing the
District School system, is not
at least so far-a ble-pounding
exasperated fact-seeker. He
doesn't even have a Southern
accent. The only thing severe
about him is a dark suit
although there is little doubt he
could be tough.
Illustrations Raised
When Miss Edith Keleher, SO,
was on the stand yesterday

fourth grade school teacher
she got to talking about her

building was next to a big auto

horns and called out names over
a public address system and
these noises added to her
troubles of teaching a class Of
At who were in the fourth and
fifth grades.
"Honk, honk," said Miss Kele-
her describing the horns. And
the much-feared Mr.. Gerber
asked:
Don't they have an antinoise
ordinance in this city?" He
smiled slightly.
YES" came back Miss Kele-
her, cute. sensible, candid, but
an ordinance has to be enforced
|. It's a question of eternal
vigilance"
Mr.. Gerber even laughed.
But usually he is just asking
Questions-some rather leading.
Glad to Talk
And the witnesses pour it out
and they seem glad to get it of
their chests. They don't seem
mad or shocked over indignation,
1T is obvious they have been liv-
ing with it for two years.
1 Chairman Davis, Democrat OF
Georgia, judge-like of furrowed
brow. seems interested in statis-
tics and population trends in
communities. He wants to know
how many children in certain
classes will fail-or pass.

Mrs. Dorothy Denton, what q
l "straddle book" is.

and honestly, is at a loss to

leher, bugs in the head" She
lblushed. II thought we were
going to have a lot Of it," she
had said, but We didn't"
Integrated Audience
The hearing room was not
crowded. The crowd was inte-
grated.
A dignif1ed colored woman
said she was there because she
was interested in anything that
concerned the District.
A blond who took notes furi-
lously said she was temporarily
in Washington.
I'm here" she said, because
I'm interested in indignation.

Whistle

When the Nays Bureau of
Ships reaches its United Civ
ers Fund goal, Old Inventory
No. Sc is going to give way to
a four-mile whistle. :
y. Old Inventory No. 66 is an
60-pound destroyer bell,
loaned by the Office of Naval
History, and is rung when any
of the bureaus divisions in
the campaign reaches 80 per
cent Of its goal.
About all the Navy knows
about it is that it's a destroyer
bell, rusty, weighs 80 pounds
and bears the inventory num-
Der Sc;
But when the big goal is
reached, Admiral Bernard E.
Manseau will step up to a 14la-
pound air whistle of the type
used on LISTS, and blast away.
"And that" says Larry
Nudick, chairman of the bu-
reau's campaign, can be
heard for four miles. We've
been telling our people not to
take cover when they hear it. "

One of the passengers re-

Along came the Presidents

Nixon of on his campaign
tour.
The bus and other traffic
began pulling out again, when

But this time, being escorted,

Cool Eggs Mean
More Cold Cash

More refrigerated egg holding
rooms are needed on Maryland
farms, says Wade H. Rice, Uni
versity of Maryland extension
poultryman.
Eggs are perishable like fresh
meat or vegetables, he says, and
preserving the high quality of
newly laid eggs is absolutely es-
sential if consumers and produc-
ers are to realize fair price for
the eggs.
Newly laid eggs hold their orig.
inal quality best when stored at
a temperature of SIS degrees and
humidity of 70 to 80 per cent.
An egg that is grade AA when
it is laid will drop to low grade
A in two days when stored at SO
degrees. The same egg will drop
to grade B in four days and to
grade c in six days when stored
at 80 degrees. If held at the prop
err temperature this egg would
grade high A after one week in
storage.
A midsummer survey of 20 egg
farms in northern Maryland
showed only one of these farms
to have a separate egg holding
room. Seventeen of the twenty
used the home cellar for holding
eggs. Only one room has a Their
mometer, and only one had a hu
nudity guide. Sixteen of the
farms used hand labor to clear
dirty eggs.
