Ladies to the Fore

AS somebody observed last week. ii was prob.
ably bound to come, men. The last stronghold of
our world of masculine supremacy has now crum-
bed. They're going to hire women cops.
Should we resignedly go along with this latest
tomfoolery? Or should we take up arms against
sea of trouble and by opposing end it? Can they
get away with this indignity, too? Women bar.
keeps, women truck drivers, female cab drivers
even lady rasslers-the advent of all these we
have noted with misgivings, certain amount
of trepidation and not inconsderable alarm. But
women policemen? Is nothing sacred?
Perhaps if we had reacted more strongly
when these earlier diabolical threats appeared we
would not now be confronted with the specter of
having a female point an accusing finger at us,
chew us out like common criminal and then
acting authorized agent of the States awe
some police power, write out ticket and sum-
mon us into court of law to try to explain our
evil doings. It's bad enough when a man heaps
this indgnity upon you but woman! Ugh!
We note with approval, however, that the
minimum qualifications for these distaff consta-
bles include requirement that applicants must
have good general intelligence, must have the
ability to understand and carry out oral and
written instructions, and must have the ability
to deal courteously tactfully, effectively and equ
tably with people" Just treat us feas equitably

corner ready to pounce. 1t did. For about 10 min

point in his lecture the indignant officer pointed
to three wide-eyed youngsters in the back of our
station wagon and asked what about these chill

we wouldn't have thought the question quite so
foolish if it had been put by an attractive.type

AS might be expected, among
the most popular names for
freights are Bullet" and Hot
Shot" with six trains each, on
different lines, having had
those names. However, Blue
Goose" with five trains so
named, runs a close second.
The train names may relate
to the railroads history, the re-
gion in which the particular
train operates, the sort of
freight it hauls, or even his
torical and memorable incident
or personality.
Such names as Cannonball,
Blue Streak, Comet, Rocket,
Meteor, Thunderbolt and Flash
suggest the speed with which
these carriers rush over the
rails from city to city. These
bear a traditional significance
as symbols of speed.
But the modern, electronic
railroad of today isn't history
minded to the exclusion of all
else. 1t is as current as today's
news. For example, the Erie
and the Wabash Railroads both
listed freight trains named Fly
ing Saucer. And the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad and the South
ern Railroad each have a Spark
Plug.
Animals have lent their
names to many of the freights,
including such trains as the
Badger, Bear Cat, Bison, Big
Horse, Broadford Hog, Bull
Dog, Camel Special winston.
Salem, N. c., to Roanoke, Va,
on the Norfolk & Westerly +,
Fox, Gopher, Greyhound, Hog,
Lamb Special, Mule, Pigs, Rab-
bit, and Whippet. There's even
a Tom Cat on the Pennsyl-
vania.
Bird names are also very pop.
ular even though there isn't
much resemblance between a
hundred or so cars of mixed
consignment and a winged crea.
ture. For example, Blue Goose.
But the B & o Railroad had a
BLACK Duck" running extra
from GAINESVILLE to Lore City
Ohio, and the Pennsy a Catbird
between Norfolk, Va, and Harsh
mus Cove, N. J. The Pennsy also
had a Cock O. the Walk (DC 81
from Cincinnati to Detroit.

problems.
The Ohio Department of High
ways through prompt action, has
had its requests approved. AS more
of this equipment becomes avail
able, the Department will continue
inspecting and asking for it.
The trucks and machinery pur-
chased are in good mechanical con-
dition although some very minor
repairs may be needed in a few
cases. No equipment with major
defects was purchased.
Some of the new equipment is
already in service. Equipment re-
ceived from Granite City, Illinois,
includes twelve bulldozers, five
crawler cranes, two truck mounted
cranes and four fork lifts. The fed
eral government paid S21S,417 for
this equipment. 1T cost Ohio 81, 4,351.
From the Fort Monmouth, New
Jersey, depot Ohio acquired thirty
six one-half ton pickup and six
teen one and one-half ton stake
body trucks for S9,448. The federal
government paid S67, ,884.
Three semi-trailerS, sixteen two
and one-half ton dump trucks and
ten shop trucks were delivered
from Letterkenny Ordnance Depot
! Chambersburg, Pa. Ohio's cost was
/ S7,499, as compared to the original
cost of S137,847.
All the equipment which the De,
| partment of Highways is acquiring
will be used for construction anC
maintenance of the states highway
system, under Governor O'Neil's
vast highway improvement pro
gram.

For eating alone, pecans are good
plain or roasted and salted.
Pecans may be bought in the
shell, as kernels, and as speciality
gift packages. If the nuts are pur-
chased in the shell, the nutrition
specialist advises soaking them for
ten hours or pouring boiling water
over them and allowing them to
soak for fifteen to thirty minutes.
Either treatment tends to make
the kernels more pliable and hold
together better during shelling. It
is best to shell the pecans as soon
as they are dry.
Miss Gruner points out that pc
cans are nutritious in that they
contain protein, fat and thiamin.
She also cautions Weight-watchers
that one'cup of pecan kernels furn-
ishes about $50 calories and twelve
medium halves furnish about 100
calories.

Pheasant Hunting
TO Be Excellent
In Most Of State

COLUMBUS-With the opening
of the 1857 pheasant season set for
November Is, hunters have about
a week to arrange for a place to
hunt.
Public Hunting Areas in Ohio
comprise more than 100000 acres
and are located in all sections of
the state. In addition to these pub
lie hunting grounds, there are
thousands of acres of private lands
available to sportsmen who ask
permission from the landowner to
hunt upon his land.
. According to the latest informa-
ton from the Game Section, Ohio
Division Of Wildlife, the Ohio
pheasant population is probably at
its highest level since 1851, partic-

Bargain Deals In
Machinery Aiding
Highway Program

Governor ONeilTs highway pro-
gram is getting a boost from a
bargain basement purchase of
road maintenance equipment, the
Ohio Department of Highways an
nounces.
Heavy road working machinery
from trucks to bulldozers, has been
acquired from federal government
stockpiles for five percent of orig
inal cost through prompt action of
alert department officials.
Originally, the equipment price
was S425 900, but Ohio is getting
it for shipping costs - just over
$4,000 - and saving over $780,
600.
Additional equipment wor t h
100000 has been inspected and re-
served for Ohio at federal depots
in Ohio, Pennsylvania and Missis-
sippi
The machinery is sold by the
federal government after it is de-
clared surplus.
All forty-eight states are eligible
for this government surplus but
each state must prove need for the
equipment before the purchase is
made.
The Federal Bureau of Public
Roads and the General Service Ad,
ministration investigate all claims
and have been cooperating fully
with the states in their acquisition

ularly in the old lake bed region Of
northwestern Ohio. The lengthen-
ing of the pheasant season several
years ago has proven to be good
management as the harvest and
hunting opportunity have been in
creased without jeopardizing the
broodStock
Adverse weather conditions, par
ticularly heavy rainfall, are often
abundance and this is especially
true in the case Of the pheasant.
Rainfall during the first several
weeks of May was virtually non
existed with only frequent showers
occurring throughout the state dur
ing the remainder of May and
June.
In the better pheasant range of
northwestern Ohio, rains were gem
tie and light. In this region any adj
verse effect caused by these fire.
quent rains was probably more
than compensated for by their ef-
feet on agricultural operations
During this period, hay making op-
erations, the prime pheasant NOR
tality factor in this region, We're
seriously disrupted or delayed, re-
sulting in better nesting success.
Throughout the better pheasant
producing areas Of central anC
western Ohio, rainfall was light
during the first several weeks oi
May but increased during May anc
June, thus hampering reproduction
considerably.
All factors considered, Ohio
hunters should expect the best
! pheasant hunting success in sever.
al years, especially in northwestern
Ohio and possibly a number ot
fringe" counties in central anC
western Ohio.
Rabbit harvest should be about
the same or slightly better thar
last year, barring adverse weather
or other uncomfortable conditions

University Man
Says Now Is The
Time To Kill Lice

COLUMBUS-The season APP
proaches when lice cause their
worst trouble on dairy cattle.
Treat cows with rotenone before
winter and lice won't reduce milk
production, says d. Lyle Coleman,
Ohio State University extension
entomologist.
Lice are more serious during
winter, Coleman explains, because
the cows hair coats are thick and
long, providing protection for the
insects.
Infested cattle often rub along
fences. feed hunks and buildings in
an effort to get relief from irrita-
ton caused by lice. Balls of hair
on barbed wire fences may indi-
cate the presence of the pests.

of Agriculture for control of lice

UseIessness OF Cancer Clinic Is
Pointed Out By Federal Agency

The Government has now been
successful in all pending Federal
court actions involving the cancer
remedies" known as the HoxSey
treatment, according to a release
this week.
At Pittsburgh, on October 2,
1857, u. S. District Judge John L.
Miller ordered the Hoxsey Cancer
Clinic, Inc, of Pennsylvania to
stop dispensing to out-of-state pa
tients the Hoxsey treatment or any
other drugs represented to be the
Hoxsey treatment for internal can
Ger.
During the seven-day trial of
this case the Government for the
third time presented evidence that
the Hoxsey treatment is worthless
for internal cancer and results in
harm to persons who rely upon it
while neglecting to obtain compe-
tent medical treatment. Evidence
was also presented that the Port
age, Pa, clinic since last June had
been treating out-of-state cancer
patients with other simple medi-
cines such as fig juice, Vitamin
pills, brewers yeast tablets and an
tacid preparations, along with a
prescription for saturated solution
of potassium iodide. The latter is
available without a prescription
from any drugstore.
I'VE believe the Pennsylvania
injunction will effectively stop in
ter-state distribution of the HoX-
sey cancer medicines from that
State. Any action against distribu-
tion within Pennsylvania will have
to be undertaken by the State au-
thorities," Federal reports indi-
Gated.
The FDA intends to seek vigor-
Gus enforcement of both the Penn
sylvania injunction and the 1858
injunction issued by the Federal
court of Dallas, according to the
announcement.
The public should know, it was
said, that such actions will not end
the menace of this treatment since
the Federal Government does not
have the power to stop clinic in
any State from treating cancer pa
tients within that State with the
nostrums which comprise the HoX-
sey treatment. Millions Of copies of
false promotional literature are
still in circulation; much of it re-
porting cures of persons who are

Pecans Help Make
Meals Tastier Is
Spe ciaIis+'s S Word

COLUMBUS - With pecan sea-
son underway, now is the time to
liven some of your favorite foods
with these nuts, says Pauline Grun-
ner, Ohio State University extern
sion foods and Nutrition specialist.
Pecans are especially good for
making plain foods into festive hol-
iday treats. They are hard to beat
for use in candy, ice cream, and
pastries. They are well adapted for
use in biscuits, nauffins, waffles,
breads, cakes and cookies. They
also may be used to add richness
and flavor to poultry stuffing, cro-
quettes, creamed chicken or fish.

1T is, therefore, of the utmost
Importance that cancer patients
and their families who may be

ment wherever it is available ac-
quaint themselves with the facts
about it. Again we urge all such
persons to secure copy of the

by the Food and Drug Administra-
ton
