Criticisms Of the type just

the reasons why the Govern

fact that a critic may be

The basic premise for the

to be that our Federal Off

BY GOULD LINCOLN
New Hompshire's Political Scramble

that Doloris Bridges would
receive this appointment"
There had been much spec
ulation that Gov. Powell
would either have himself
appointed to the vacancy or
run for the nomination for
the Bridges seat next fall.
But the Governor is backing
Senator Murphy. 1t has been
reported that Gov. Powell, If
he runs for anything, will
seek reelection to a third
term, or he may run for the
Senate nomination against
Senator Norris Cotton, who is
up for reelection.
The New Hampshire cam
paign next fall will be
watched with interest-races
for governor, two Senators
and two Representatives at
stake, and the hungry Dem
ocrats trying desperately to
make inroads in this usually
Republican State. The Demo-
Gratis, however, must find
candidates of sufficient abil-
ity and appeal to the voters,
and also widely known in the
State and the congressional
districts. So far there has
been a dearth of such candi-
dates. President Kennedy and
Democratic National Chair
man John M. Bailey-also
a New Englander-may be
expected to do their best to
elect the Democratic candi-
dates after their nomination
in the State, which is some
times referred to as the back
yard of President Kennedy
contiguous to Massachusetts,
as it is. Two names, those
of Mayor Vagge of Nashua
and William Craig of Mon
chester, an attorney and
member of the legislature,
have been mentioned as pos
sibilities for governor, and
former Mayor Thomas J. Nc
1ntyre of Laconia, for a
Senate nomination.
Bass Good Vote-Getter
Congressman Bass, in an
nouncing his candidacy for
the senatorial nomination
Said:"My voting record dur
ing seven years in Congress
speaks for itself. It is the
record Of a moderate and not
an extremist. 1t is a record Of
Republican support Of the i'm
portant issues which so
clearly represent the ideals
and principles of the Repub-
Hcan Party" He is the son
of the late Governor Robert
P. Bass of New Hampshire.
He has been an extremely
good vote-getter in the Sec
ond congressional district and
in 1858 and 1860 elections
led the ticket there, with the
highest percentage of the Re-
publican vote. 1t is the Re-
publican vote which will
count in the senatorial pri-
mary next September. Con-
gresham Morrow, if he en-
tiers the race, may be expected
to do well in his district-but
will be competing against
Mrs. Bridges. whose chief
supporter, William Loeb, is
in the first congressional
district, too. and also Sem
ator Murphy who halls from
that district. Congressman
Morrow, regarded as the more
liberal OF the potential SEN
atorial nominees, as Mrs.
Bridges is regarded as the
more conservative, must de-
eide whether he prefers to
seek e-election and hold what
he has or step out for the
Senate. He has been a men,

VISTAS IN SCIENCE
Cancer Research Progress Report ~
BY THOMAS r. HENRY

Viruses, invisible and in
finiteSimally minute semi
organisms that are responsible
for some Of the worst dis
eases, long have been known
to induce certain cancers in
animals. None yet has been
implicated in any form of
human cancer. This is not to
say, however, that such an
agent may not exist. It Just
hasn't been found yet. Its ex-
istence, once demonstrated,
might be the basis of anti
cancer vaccination"
An intensive search is being
carried on by scientists Of the
Sloan-Kettering Institute for
Cancer Research, probably
the foremost organization in
this country in the fight
against malignant growths.
The work is described in the
Institutes biennial report.
Viruses Of other cells have
a tendency to stimulate the
body cells to produce i'm
muniZation agents against
them. Some indication Of this
process has been found in
both animals and humans.
That is, the disease seems to
be held in check in some way
despite the prevalence of
various cancer inducing
agents. This fact, says the
report, at least is suggestive.
Phenomenon Unsolved
Virus particles have been
found associated with hu-
man tumors, but there is no
evidence that they are the
cause. One such, isolated from
a transplantable tumor, has
been found to cause a char
acteristic bone deformity
when injected into newborn
hamsters.
Recent efforts have been
directed at examining the
possibility that viruses found
in cancers are tissue con-
taminants picked up by the
tumors. 1t appears, however,
that such agents can be OBJ
tanned directly from speci-
mems under conditions which
preclude such contamination.
AS yet the phenomenon re-
mains almost entirely unex-
planned. Viruses. at the best,
are extremely elusive.
Human cells growing in It's
sue cultures occasionally ap-
pear to develop malignant
characteristics. A laboratory
has just been established to
study this phenomenon and to
examine the possibility of

Farm Fires Quick
Disosfer

Fire is one of the greatest farm
hazards. Each year many farmers
find themselves financially ruined
because of disastrous fire. Over
night the profits of years of hard
work can go up in smoke, accord
Ing to Ed Ralph, Associate County
Agent. Farm fire losses this year
will exceed s160 million.
More shocking than the econo-
mic loss is the needless death or
permanent disability of thousands
OF farm residents in farm fires
each year.
According to Ralph, most farm
fires are due TO one or more OF
these, preventable causes:
/. Careless smoking and use o
matches.
2. Spontaneous combustion.
3. Misuse of electricity and p
pliances.
A. Inadequate lightning protec-
tion.
S. Careless handling and storage
of gasoline. kerosene and OF h e r
flammable liquids.
s. Improper disposal of rubbish,
and
z. Children playing with match
es.
One important step Ralph lists
in preventing farm fires is to de-
velop a fire safety coDciousness
and determination to work and live
safely.

Box Your Lunch
A box lunch is one way to limit
the amount of food you serve, and
know exactly what you'll need. A
local bakery shop or shoe store
might supply boxes which can be
covered with gift wrapping p a p e r
if you have time. That way you
can put in the quota of food so that
a guest doesn't limit himself to
the main course. The idea is a little
bit of everything for everybody.
An apple and cupcakes make mex
pensive desserts.
A typical box lunch (for a hun
cry crowd could be three hard
boiled eggs, one tomato, two GU
cumber sandwiches, two pieces of
chicken, an apple and two cup
cakes. If you put emphasis on the
filling foods, you can keep the cost
down.
Young people have great thirsts
and the most expensive part OF a
picnic could be the drinks. Exper-
iment with a punch until you find
a good zippy one that will intri-
que your crowd. Lemons offer great
quantities of jucie, while crap e
juice is inexpensive and a good
punch stretcher. Add carbonated
beverage or ginger ale to give the
punch some sizzle Put it in a cool
or with a spout if you have one.
If you haven't boxes for lunches
and still want to portion out food,
wrap the lunch items individually
on a paper plate and cover t h e
plate with saran, foil or wax paper,
tying it with a pretty ribbon for a
gay note or gay red bandanans that
can be wrapped around the plate
and knotted on top.

Entertain Your Gang
With A Picnic

What do you do If your parents
will not let you entertain at home
That's the dilemma in which one
girl finds herself. She writes: III
is embarrassing to be entertaine ed
by everyone and never be allowed
to have a party in your own house
because of the expense and t h G
mess"
Many girls find themselves n
the predicament where there a r e
too many in the family or the
house is too small for the shenan-
igans of a young crowd.
A simple solution can be a party
away from home a picnic. 1t is
an ideal way to pay off all friends
who've entertained you in one
swoop it can be more fun than
any other kind of party, and ex-
penses can be kept to minimum
by working over a menu until it's
compatible with your finances.
Eggs Are Filling
Old-fashioned cooking can k p
expenses to a minimum SO that
parents may be willing to foot the
entire food bill.
Instead of buying expensive
sandwich meats or store prepared
picnic foods, cook low cost chicken
for instance, and serve it cold or
heated up at the picnic grounds.
Sandwiches of thinly sliced u
cumbers have great boy appeal.
Eggs are cheap and just as filling
as any food that can be taken on
a picnic. Serve eggs hardboiled and

generously before you bring on the

Beat Drv Weather

An age old question to the man
that works the earth is: Will it
rain? And the outcome may mean
the difference between making
money and going out of business.
In some countries drought can
mean starvation.
Farmers have been trying to
solve their water problems n e
the first man began ito work the
soil. They irrigate, they hire rain
makers, they plant drought toler-
ant crops, and they do many other
things to catch and conserve water.
Every few years Delaware farm
ers suffer from this age old prob
lem of dry skies. This year is GER
tainly one of those years. In fact,
cattlemen usually have pasture
problems sometime during every
