 giving the veterinarian new ad- vantage. Ataraxoid, for instance, seems to work as we'll with pets as it does with their masters. It's combination of a mild tranquilizer used to treat everyday tensions in humans, with the latest hormone for relief of arthritis, rheumatism, and skin diseases.
 The tranquilizing drugs open many other possibilities, too. They may be employed to soothe nervous horses so that they can be trained better, and to treat cattle before shipping so that they won't lose weight through loss of appetite. Zoo and circus vets hope that the drugs can be used to calm animals during long trips, so that exhaustion will not make them easy marks for dis ease. The drugs may be used to tranquilize flighty birds, too.
 They may even help make a watchdog out of the pup who runs and hides under the bed when it thunders!

Booze at Bottom Of Most Natives
 Tangles With Law

SEATTLE, LR-U.S. Marshal Albert F. Dorsh Jr of Fairbanks told a reporter here Wednesday in most cases booze is at the bottom of any difficulties Alaska natives have with the law.
 Dorsh, 46, is attending a region al marshals' conference here with three other marshals from Alaska. They are Robert w. Oliver, 36, Nome; Clair A. Wilder, 65, Ju- neau, and Fred s. Williamson, 62, Anchorage.
 Marshall Sheriff
 Wilder said Alaska marshals do the same things the marshals do down here, plus what the sher- ifs do down here"
 Williamson commented that this comes about because of the dual Jurisdiction over territorial and federal law enforcement in Alas ka. "But," he said Eve also do our own Investigating in criminal cases"
 He pointed out that marshals Tn the States are aided by federal investigative agencies.
 In 1853, Williamson said Alas ka's Highway Police Department was converted into a police force which has taken some of the mar shals' load

SCIENCE IN YOUR LIFE
Animal Tomer

The next time a veterinarian is confronted with a dog made snarl- ing and vicious by it's illness, he may pop a tranquilizer into the animals mouth, and the snarls will vanish into cooperative friendliness.
 Sick dogs - even those which are not naturally bad-tempered can turn vicious toward strangers. Not only do they resist examination and
