Good Health Key
To Happy Old Age

CHICAGO-Average life expect
ancy has risen from 40 years in
1900 to over SO years today and
there are more than $4,000 900
Americans in the 65-plus Bracket.
All this is very fine, but it poses
the question. what are we gong to
do with those years Of extended
living? Elderly people who are
sound in mind and body can enjoy
their leisure and take pleasure IN
worthwhile work Of one kind or
another. But it's different story
for those who are mentally or
physically incapacitated
As our physical strength Wancs,
we have to keep our interests or
our minds viii rust away It's
significant that more than 30 per
cent Of the people Who enter men
tai institutions IN New York City
are over IS years old. Special corn
munity activities arranged for Old
sters have been found TO help them
out OF such institutions, indicat-
ing that an interested mind is
more liable to remain sound than
a bored, frustrated one.

New Type Lawn Through
PIuo-In Technique

LOS ANGELES - Tired OF the
type of grass in your current
lawn? Improved techniques of
literally plugging in new type
may make it possible TO change
your entire lawn next spring.
UCLA horticultural scientists
outline four major steps:
Obtain four-inch (diameter)
plugs OF turf of the type Of grass
you desire to introduce. Special
tools for this process are avail
able commercially.
Drill holes in your lawn large
enough to accommodate these
plugs.
Put generous quantities Of fer
tilizer in the holes and spray the
surrounding grass with maleic by
drazide. a growth inhibition
Insert plugs of the new grass in
the holes. Nine to twelve inch
spacing between plugs is recon-
mended.
Introduction Of these plugging
techniques is not new, but it has
not been successful in existing
turfs because the established
grass resists the new grass too
strongly. However, spraying with
naleic hydraulic checks the
growth OF existing turf during
critical period while new grass in
plugs is >esta bIshing new roots.

Can't Tell Mans
Work by Official
Job Title, Maybe

WASHINGTON-If it is true
that men must work and women
must weep" they at least may
find smile in the names and
natures of. some Of America s
gainful occupations.
Listen to the lit of the bushing-
and-bung boring machine opera
tor; the wrink1e-chaser in a boot
or shoe factory: the JOY loader in
a coal mine, the pulpit man in a
steel mill, or the stiff-leg derrick
operator on construction JOB.
These are but a few Of the
SO. 900 names affixed to the $4,000
different jobs defined in the United
States Department of Labor's Die
tionary of Occupational Titles.
1t recognizes many laborer
whose services might otherwise be
taken for granted: the cracker
stacker, doll-eye setter, baseball
glove suffer, back-pocket attach
er, bologna LAGER, fan-mail clerk,
and the ribbon-tier who makes red
bows on valentines.
1t also inspires sympathy for
those who work under such psy-
chologically hazardous titles as
knee-pants operator, bag holder
bottom man, plodderman, mooch-
er. teacher, bumper, knocker,
neck cutter, on-and-off man, first
faller and former man, Happily,
on the uplifting side there's a
backer-up, bucker-up and build-up
man. -

The majority Of business eHecu-
tiyes see 1857 as a more prosperous
year than was 1856. Year-end sur
veys of these leaders show a sur
prising optimism for the coming
year. Profits should be up and total
business should increase from ten
per cent to twenty in 1857. the ma
jority opinion holds.
Yet investment bankers believe
that 1857 could be a recessionary
year. and that business might not
pick up until mid-l957 There are,
then. two theories on the develop
ing business picture
Meanwhile. Congress is sure to
take look into higher interest rates
and tighter money-as official U S
policy. This policy, sold as an anti
initiation one. is opposed by many
members Of Congress as false

Ground Glass Is New
Potassium Fertilizer

LOS ANGELES - And now.
ground glass for fertilizer!
A special type of ground glass
has been developed at the Univer-
sity of California to furnish potas-
SUM to plants slowly and for pro-
longed periods.
The finely ground glass known
as potassium frit. has a very little
weathering rate and extremely
low solubility. making it ideal as
a fertilizer to supply potassium
under conditions where it would
normally leach away rapidly.

Show Is Born
About the same time, in Hollywood, Irving
Brecher and Jackie Cooper had just agreed on
a plot for new situation comedy. The Peoples
Choice. It would concern young city coun-
Gilman Cooper and his attractive girl friend
Pat BreslinJ. Just for laughs they threw in
the idea of a canine sidekick for Cooper. They
decided that this dog would be able TO give vent
TO his thoughts via an on-stage voice; a sort
Of canine Greek chorus.
What breed OF dog should it be?
They decided on a baSset hound, because
OF its tragic comedy countenance. Next, they
contacted Frank Inn a well-known dog trainer
who had helped train Lassie and Daisy.
"Brecher and Cooper told me tnat tney
needed a l-year-old female baSSet hound with
a good temperament, a willingness to learn.
and the right coloring for the sensitive TV
cameras It almost hoored me when they
added that had two weeks to find the dog
and train her for the pilot film" Inn said
She Was Just Right

sell her because of past sad experiences.

reasoning won out and Bernadette was his

ule With him, he had Bernadette and five
other baSsets he had rented. so there wouldn't
be any doubt about his having the right dog
for the part.
AS Cooper walked into the Office to select
Cleo" five dogs ran to greet him. Only
Bernadette sat shyly in the corner As soon as
Jackie noticed her, he said, That's our dog!
The glass shoe fitted and Cinderella was dis
covered by Prince Charming.
An Immediate Hit
It's no news now that Cleo became an i'm
mediate hit as soon as The Peoples Choice
started in October 1855. Inns prediction to
Mrs Shula was borne out and the popularity
of basset hounds continues to rise tremendously.
But Cleos ability TO perform on Set has
amazed even Inn. From that first pilot hlm
in which she was barely householder pedigree
with sad face, Cleo has learned to perform
tricks at the rate of one show. She can now
do over 100 different stunts including high
