'stance Wolf of Blue Bell. Pa,
Shat her Texas to Oklahoma

aew world records, not merely
he three she claimed.
The association discovered the
Rroader scale of the achieve
nent after a study of existing
records.
/. Mrs. Wolf. wife Of Alfred
Wolf. secretary and general
counsel of the Aircraft Owners
and Pilots Association here,
took off from Big Springs. Tex,
at LAT am. (EST) Monday in
4 hydrogen-filled balloon 65
feet in diameter.
She landed at Boley, Okla, at
& pm. (EST) Tuesday to claim
these women's world records
for class AS balloons, the cate
CORY for balloons Of this size:
Duration-40 hours and 10
minutes.
Distance-363.99 miles.
= Altitude-13,00O feet.
The previous women's record
for duration of balloon flight
was set April %, 1948, by So
Wet Balloonist L. Ivanova, at
81 hours 81 minutes. and 36
seconds. There were no pre-
vious distance or altitude rec
ords for women.
NAA officials explained that
any balloon flight that exceeds
records set by larger balloons
also is credited with the new
marks in the larger categories
as well as its own.
For that reason, Mrs. Wolf
also may claim automatically
the duration, distance and alti-
dude records for the four larger
balloon classes, AT through
A-10.

Indications are that the officials who came down from wash
ington were as happy as the people who were celebrating the in
auguration Of Ralph Paewonsky as the sixteenth Governor Of the
Virgin Islands.
One Official said that he can hardly wait to- get back so he
can tell Washington all about it especially the President, Another
is Just waiting for the opportunity to say told you So
It was fairly easy to identity many Of those who fought against
Paiewonskys appointment-especiany on the local scene--on his
arrival here they had wider. smiles, bowed lower, cmtsed more,
and on the whole were buster than the proverbial one-armed paper
hanger with the itch. In fact, they all but outdd Senators Ron de
Lugo and Walter Brother" Hodge, both of whom were the real
heroes in the Washington drama Just ended.
The real true story behind the recent heavyweight battle" in
which Paiewonsky emerged Gin the words Of Senator de Lugo) the
heavyweight champion of the Virgin Islands, may never be pub
lished locally. But to paraphrase Johnny Stinson: Everybody IS
HAPPY.
Never, in the memory Of anyone we talked to, was the Gov
eminent House 50 jampacked to greet a Governor. It was indeed,
heartwarming. Certain members Of Congress should have been here.
IM@M
Worthy Of note was that the students of every school on the
Island were really a credit to the community.
The same day that Governor Paewonsky was inaugurated he
announced many appointments and reappointments. That is another
record in his favor.
Another commendable aspect about the Governors speecr to
the people was his knowledge Of the local needs and the fact that
he win begin to do something about it Immediately.
An ominous threat went out from the lips Of a democrat. He
threatens to wreck the club unless his protege gets the appoint
ment sought. Haw!

that may be heading for trouble.
And while l feel warning about
them is long overdue, | must make
clear:
Don't think for moment that
Jokes and fun must be ruled out of
a marriage entirely. How, then, do
you tell what is harmful? Here is
guide for testing your jokes.
Jokes are harmful if they are
cruel. And they are cruel if:
They are made at someone
else's expense;
They ridicule anyone's per-
sonal qualities or weaknesses;
They chip away at an individ-
ual's self-respect in his own or
anyone else's eyes.
Here are some simple rules to
safeguard yourself from the evils
of mate-teasing:
1. If you have a complaint against
your wife or husband - including
his or her teasing!- discuss it
freely, sensibly and without rancor.
2. Make it point to praise your
mate often. Once youhave acquired
this good habit, the bad habit of
teasing will be foreign to you.
5. If a funny remark comes to
your lips, think for second as
you ask yourself: els it personal =
Evening star., 1961-09-17

will it tear DOWN." If there is the
tiniest doubt, don't say it.
There is one final point: Never
encourage other mate-teasers by
laughing at their sallies. A come
dian who doesn't register laughs
soon stops trying to be funny!
Itake this kind of joking with
utmost seriousness. You would, too,
if you could see the victims in my
consultation room. There are no
laughs there from them - only
heartaches and tears. -TNG End

-Four Pin Spares Are Different
That 1-3-6-10 spare illus
trated today is a tough one.
Any time you have to pick up
four pins, you've got trouble.
But, you have a choice in
shooting this one. You can roll
your normal strike ball, letting
it 60 into the 1-3 pocket and
setting up the 3-6-10 pin ac-
ton.
Or, you can move slightly to
the left of center and angle
your ball across the lane and
into the 1-3 pocket. Some bowl
ers prefer this angle, feeling
it helps set up better pin ac-
ton on the 3-6-10.
However, you may feel you
have better control of your
normal strike angle. If so, stick
with it.
