TIGHT INSPECTION OF
VESSELS WON'T BEGIN !
BEFORE NEXT YEAR.

Announcement has been made by
the Coast Guard in Washington
that stringent inspection of more
than 5000 passenger carrying yes
sells, called for in a new ship safe
ty law just signed by President
Eisenhower will not begin until
some time next year.
The new law calls for inspection
Of all vessels carrying more than
six paying passengers on naviga-
BILE water. It was rushed through
by Congress this year after the
sinking Of the schooner Levin ].
Marvel in Chesapeake Bay last
August, costing II lives.
IT. appears that this inspection
law does not affect party fishing
boats unless they carry more than
six passengers.
The Coast Guard said public at
tention was focused on "inade-
quacy of existing safety inspection
laws" by the loss Of life on the
Marvel, a 183-ton wooden sailing
vessel which foundered in the bay
in hurricane weather last Aug. IL.
It also mentioned the sinking of
the motorboat Pelican, which cap
sized in Long Island Sound Sept.
/, 1861 with a loss of 45 lives.
The Coast Guard said that pro-
posed regulations to put the new
law into effect will be reviewed
at public hearing with all inter-
ested parties. AS soon as the new
regulations are written, they will
become effective six months later.
The Coast Guard said the pro-
posed regulations and notice of the
public hearing date will be given
at least 80 days before the hearing.

GlL,lM P S ES
OF
TIL e P A S T
BY CAROLYN LLOYD


Queer things are being done
with and to the English language
these days. A recent newspaper
item told of the building Of a new
"pastorium" by church group in
another part Of the state. It took
me some time to figure out that
they were building a parsonage
instead Of a final resting place for
worn out pastors. / realize, of
course, that no one calls the
preacher "parson" any more; but
somehow "pastorinm" does, sound
ridiculous. Pretty soon they will be
calling doctors homes "medoriums" /"
or teaeherages "teachoriums".
Many old terms have fallen into
disuse and can be well spared from
the modern vocabulary. One sell
dom hears the terms "cookhouse",
"piazza", or "veranda" any more,
for simpler words for parts Of the
house are in use. Other words have
been dropped because the articles
which they named are no longer
in use; for instance, "camisole"
or "Fhvver".
The pendulum swings the other
way too, and some words which
were once taboo in polite society
are casually used today. The Con-
stitution's guarantee Of freedom
Of speech" is taken literally these
days and there are few restric-
tions upon conversation. Quite a
change from the Victorian Era
when the mention Of a young
lady's ''limb" was enough to make
faces blush in mixed company.
Since the very old may some
times become the very new, here
is word to try out and use to
impress: "agelast'-meaning one
who never laughs. Another, "aga-
,mist"-one opposed to the institu-
ton of holy matrimony. Now
whether that means one who is
opposed to matrimony for himself
or just on general principles I
couldn't say.
The writer's Of the Old Testa-
ment didn't hesitate to call spade
a spade. Shakespeare was not al
ways dainty in his choice of words.
Those writers, however, used plain
language to put across their mean
ing and because it was the COM
mon language of the day, not to
attract readers by giving them a
little dirt. Strong language is
sometimes necessary for realism,
but it does seem as though many
modern writer's go out of their way
to use words which were once
seen only when scribbled on the
back fence. On the other hand, it
seems just as foolish to invent
high-flown terms for common,
everyday things. Undertaken" is
not an appealing word, but it
sounds about as good to me as
"mortician".
Most of US, I expect, will agree
with the famous author and wit,
Dorothy Parker, who when asked
to name the two most beautiful
words in the English language, re-
piled, "Check enclosed. There is
nothing old-fashioned about a
check except the spelling, which
once was "cheque"; and no mat.
ter how it is spelled in the future,
its meaning will still be clear to
even the most limited of. vocabu-
in time a bank will become a
larry. It is possible, of course, that
"checkorium" or a "depositorium".

What could be more appro-
pirate in this fast-moving
Atomic Age than the appear
ance Of a new radio, requiring
no tubes or replaceable bat
teries, and deriving its power
from the sun?
But before Mrs. Homemaker
or her husband rush out to buy
one 1t should be explained that
while the receiver works sat-
isfactorily. it is still in the
experimental stage.
The radio could conceivably
last a lifetime without repair.
1t resembles a conventional
table radio. On one end is a
control knob for turning on or
of and changing it from
solar operation to a flashlight-
size standby battery which is
re-charged by the suns rays.
The standby cell is capable Of
continuous operation for SO
hours without re-charging.
One possible use foreseen for
the new radio is around-the-
clock reception of weather re-
ports. 1t would also be valuable
in monitoring emergency Civil
Defense broadcasts in the event
of power failure.
Developed by the Admiral
Corp. the radio employs eight
transistors in place of cubes
and has the same sensitivity
and long distance reception as
an average home radio.
A Seven-cell solar power
source is contained in a plastic
strip mounted on top of the
cabinet. This battery. activated
by the sun, provides the pri-
mary source Of power. It can
be activated equally well. on
