Tired Old Mix

Many thanks for your
March 20 article concerning
my remarks about tired old
milk" and New Jersey cows.
. Now that I've raised my
voice in defense of Garden
State cows. / might as well
raise it in defense of myself.
Your article said I was a
Republican. I am Democratic.
And the last line in the
story said: But he (meaning
Senator Williams) overlooked
one thing-the conflict has
resulted in milk being inn
ported only from Pennsyl-
vania."
Perhaps you're right, but
one of my staff members
checked with Sealtest just be-
fore ! made my comments.
He was assured that milk
was being imported from the
Camden, N. j., area, as had
been stated earlier in press
accounts.
Harrison A. williams, Jr.
Editors note: Democratic
Senator Williams eloquent
defense of New Jersey cows
was based on the belief that
the milk processed at Seal
tests Camden, N. j., plant
and shipped here for nearby
Maryland customers was ac-
tually produced by New Jer-
sey cows. 1t was not. All of
the milk, according to Seal
test, actually was produced
by Pennsylvania cows. Only
processing and packaging
was done in Camden.)

VISTAS IN SCIENCE
Where Oysters Grow on Trees
BY THOMAS r. HENRI

LA PARGUERA, Puerto
Rico.--Here oysters grow on
trees and exotic white birds
come by thousands to roost
at dusk around unearthly
seas Of blue fire. 1t seems
like a landscape on another
planet.
The seas, almost unknown
to the rest Of the world. APP
parently are unique among
earth's far-scattered lumi-
nescent waters in that they
persist with undiminished
brilliance every night of the
year. Solution Of their
mechanism. especially that of
the largest, known as Baya
Fosforiscente, now is a major
project Of the University of
Puerto Rico's Institute of
Marine Biology, headed by
DR.. Juan Rivero. The bay is
q hidden arm Of the Carib-
bean. walled by mangrove
swamps and usually invisi-
BILE shoals, which can be
found at night only by skilled
pilots.
Weird Blue Light
The light Of the water on
q moonless night is so bright
that 1t is possible to read a
newspaper and even to take
photographs with no other
illumination. 1t is, however,
only about a 50th as bright
as the light of a full moon
and is hardly detachable on a
cloudless, moonlit night.
The color of the blue flame
Is unique and unduplicable,
say institute biologists. 1t
seems as If the entire surface
Of the water were entirely
covered by a very tenuous
garment Of blue-white fire.
The organisms responsible,
the biologists have deter
mined, are countless billions
of microscopic plant-animals,
the dinof1agellata. Whether
they are plants or animals
is a matter of continual
debate. The majority of
them contain the essential
ingredient of plant life. chic
rophyll, the green coloring
matter in foliage by which
carbohydrates, basic chem
ical building stones of life,
are produced out of hydro
gen from water and carbon
from the carbon dioxide in
the air through the medium
of trapped sunlight. 1t is
customary to regard any
thing containing chlorophyll
as on the plant side of liv-
ing things. The organisms
usually multiply by splitting,
another plant characteristic.
On the other hand, all move
about freely-a characteristic
of animals. Some have no
chlorophyll. All at certain
times of the year reproduce
sexually - another animal
characteristic.
They are believed to rep
resent a stage in evolution at
about the point where plant
and animal kingdoms sepa-
rated. says DR.. Ramon Mar
garlef of the University of
Barcelona, Spain, who now
is carrying out a special in
vestigation of them.
The chemistry of their

known, despite long efforts to
solve 1t. Apparently they light

FASHION NOTEBOOK
Girl Next Door
Goes Sophisticated
By ELEM
Star Fashion Writer

LOS ANG ELES. Calf,
Nov. 1.-THE girl next door
has moved her locale from
a small town to the big city.
At least that's Don Loper's
version of his changing June
Allyson (Mrs. Dick Powell in
private life) into a sophisti-
cate rather than the ingenue
she's been for so long.
The designer has created
an exciting new wardrobe
for her that fashion editors
previewed recently.
They represent % different
facets of sophistication and
elegance that change the
well scrubbed" All-Ameri-
can girl, into what Loper
claims is, THE Real June"
Up to $500 Yard
All the fabrics are of Du-
Pont f1bers. mot the dip
and drip kind, either, some
of these fabrics cost UP to
5000 a yard" Mr.. Loper
stated.
He's used the same fibers
in furnishing the Powell
home from entrance hall to
living room.
The elegance of the gold
and silver metallic yarns,
floating chiffons, knit jer-
seyS, and peau de soies of
the dresses is quite a con-
traSt to the braided rugs and
the Early American antiques
with which the home is dec
Grated.
If Mrs. Powell attempts to
wear the dresses designed for
her role as hostess in "The
Dupont Show with June Ally
son" at home. we're afraid
the combination with the
Currier & Ives prints, the
framed samplers, and the
pine furniture, might prove
a little startling.
Her TV wardrobe would
go better with wall-to-wall
carpeting, golden sconces.
damask sofas, and graceful
French chairs.
Her own home calls for
clothes that are a lot more
casual. But then that's show
business!
AS a hostess, June Allyson
proved more than ideal, for
the rs fashion editors whom
she entertained at a buffet
supper.

her was Ricky. 8, in his bath

John Stanley, radio-tele-

The danger in TV, Mr..

gestiveness or brutality, than
in ''the rapid run-of-the-
mill offerings" Such pro-
grams, he warned, offer the
American people an "ab-
surd diet Of escapism.'
Mr.. Stanley quoted a re-

grave and perhaps mortal
danger and that to a large
extent during the hours be.

ice Cardinal Feltin, Archbish-
OPP of Paris, has presented a
personal report on the prog
resS of the apostolate to
Frances working class to His
Holiness Pope John XIII.
During his audience with
the Pope the Cardinal also
discussed other problems of
the Church in France.
The apostolate to the French
working class includes the
movement of ~priest-Workers,
whose activities were restrict
ed by the Holy See in 1858.
The priest workers, organized
after World War II by the late
Cardinal Suhard of Paris, liv-
ed in working class districts,
wore workingmen's clothes
and held regular jobs in fac
tories and the like. Their aim
was to try to convert the de
Christianized masses Of the
French workers, many of
whom have fallen prey to com
munism.
