OLIVER HARDY

To those who remember the al
ways-frustrated fat partner in the
Laurel and Hardy movie team, the
death of Oliver Hardy recently
was a body blow. Hardy, g., Suf-
fered a paralytic stroke last year
and had been almost completely
incapacitated since.
Strangely enough, Laurel and
Hardy have become popular in re-
cent years because of television.
Their movies, brought back to
young audiences who had never
seen the famous slapstick team
perform, made them great favo-
rites, and only recently they we're
talking of making a comeback.
The most refreshing thing
about Laurel and Hardy was the
fact that they managed to encoun-
ter more difficulties doing simple
chores, such as washing windows,
than even the most awkward of
us usually encounter. And those
who remember Hardy's whitening
look, so often turned on the slen-
der, frowning Laurel, will never
forget it.
Hardy's first picture was made
in Jacksonville, Florida when he
81. He was finishing a four
year tour with a stock company in
Atlanta, his home. He had been
studying art at the University of
Georgia, until he gave it up for
he stage.
Perhaps the faces of Laurel and
stopped more pies than any
,ther two faces in Hollywood. In
my event their brand of slapstick
vas far less hectic, less noisy, and
more enjoyable than the brand
see on television and in
he movies today. The double
AXE, the quiet expression and an
bsence of noise and commotion.
properly handled, still add up to
he best in humor.

EDITORIALLY
EXIT: SECRETARY WILSON

Defense Secretary Charles E
Wilson has resigned after rumors
that he would do SO for almost
a year. His resignation terminates
the services of a highly contro-
versial Defense Secretary.
In retrospect, and looking over
the entire job performed by Will
son, we think he made a fair
Secretary of Defense. He was in
clined at times to speak too blunt
ly, or to say things which did
not reflect either patience or
wisdom.
However, in general policy and
as far as having the courage to
speak his mind and stick to his
guns was concerned, Wilson
measured up. Moreover, he had
the holiness to alter some mill
tary concepts and change some
military traditions and procedures
which have withstood the ravages
of time =or a long period.
AS he steps out, the Air Force
is just beginning to gain delivery
of a number of new weapons,
such as the B-58 jet bomber,
various advanced guided missiles
and other weapons. These weap-
.ns, it is thought, gives the
United States the lead in this
once again.
In another respect Wilson has
lone a good job. He has institut-
I'd the drastic cuts which are
low being carried out in the
.hree military services. This has
been done by the outgoing Secre-
AIRY SO as to allow the new Sec
to begin his term without
his first orders be drastic

TELLS HOW
JOHN D ROCKEFELLER
JR. OVERCAME THE
HANDICAPS OF WEALTH

The book, John d. Rockefeller,
Jr.: A Portrait" by Raymond B.
Fosdick is the story of a man
born to adversely who rose to
greatness. 1t is condensed in the
July issue of the Readers Digest.
THE handicaps that shape hu-
man life take many forms" says
the author, poverty, deformity,
i'll health, an unhappy envoron-
ment. In the case of John d.
Rockefeller Jr., the handicap was
wealth. sitting kind of wealth
that might have sapped his ener-
gies and blighted his life"
To overcome his original adj
versity, JDR Jr. had to demon
strate a talent equal to his faith
er's in amassing the great fortune.
AS for his decision to dedicate
himself to giving rather than max
ing, his father supported him as
he did in everything; he had SUI
preme confidence in JDR Jr.'s
judgment and ability. John" he
said simply, 81 want you to do

The younger Rockefeller did.
AS a result, the great Rockefeller

THE. POLIO RATE

Despite stories making the
rounds and surprising reports OF
polio - even among some who
had received the polio vaccine
the number of cases of paralytic
infantile paralysis reported in the
United State so far this year is
far less than that in 1856.
In fact, the Public Health Ser
vice figures reveal that through
July, the number of paralytic
polio cases reported in the ma
ton was less than 800 as against
a 2,016 figure for the same period
of 1855.
Thus, there are less than fifty
per cent of cases of paralytic
polio being reported this year
than were reported in 1856.
Therefore, polio serum seems
to be doing an excellent job. We
advise those who have hesitated
to take the shots, because of re-
ports, rumors and early troubles
the vaccine, to consider
these figures.
