Space Techniques

Both the United States and Russia are fully committed
in an about race for space. Each new event which occurs
by space probing or man orbiting affects the prestige OF
both nations. Each has adopted a different method In utlllz-
ing publicity for the events which occur In their own coun-
try.
In our country, we have fully disclosed to the world
our progress in the space age. We give advance publicity on
each of our attempts to send a capsule or missile into orbit
or to some other destination. Unquestionably, so far this
policy has been a wise one and much favorable acceptance
has been gained by our method of publicizing our progress
In our method, we will gain considerably more when we are
successful. On the other hand, we leave ourselves open Tor
greater losses when we are unsuccessful.
In contrast, the Russians have always surrounded their
attempts with secrecy. Indeed, after their first claims OF obrlt-
ing man into space, considerable doubt remained In the minds
of many people as to whether they had actually accomplished
the feat which they claimed. The Russians do not give prior
publicity to their attempts in space. By contrast to the Amerl-
can way, they only publicize the event after it has occurred
or, in one instance, while it was going on but after the orbit
was in progress.
1t appears that the Russians have clear knowledge of
what we are trying to accomplish in this country in our at
tempts with rockets and missiles, and, likewise, we have very
clear and Illuminating evidence on their attempted probes
and orbits.
Our Intelligence in Space is probably composed of a vast
network of electronic devices scattered throughout the
world. 1t should assure us and our military of no great sur
prises by the Russians and the knowledge of false feats II
they are claimed by the Soviets.

Up And Down
Main Street
BY Cliff Urseth

Out in California there's a man named Julius Goldman
who's going into the chicken business in a big way. He's
building his little hen house on a 205-acre tract.
As a starter, Julius plans to have a million laying hens
by 1864. Later on he's going to expand to two million. AT
present he is maintaining a %3C0,000-hen operation.
Probably the most amazing thing in the entire operation
is that Julius is almost a newcomer in this country. He came
to America only IL years ago without money or experience
in any type of agriculture.
julius apparently isn't excited about this and says every
body has an opportunity in the United States but not every
body uses it.
How true Julius how true.
The Sidney Herald staff is awaiting the arrival of an
engraving maintenance man to install a Fairchild Scan-O-
Graver just recently picked up by the Herald. When in
stalled, the machine will bring automatic electronic engrav-
ing to our shop.
Heretofore pictures were taken and processed and sent
to Billings or Williston where engravngs were made for
use in the paper. The time required limited the use of pic
lures as it was necessary to have everything ready to go
by Monday. With the installation of the machine, the Herald
will be able to produce pictures for the paper almost up
until the final press run on Wednesday noon.
Not satisfied with that Improvement alone, a room pre-
viously used as a 'catch-alr in the basement has now been
converted to a darkroom. The editor and a printers devil
are now in the process of combing their knowledge of pho
Biography and thereby do all our own Photographic work.
It's been nearly ten years since we did darkroom work, so
we suspect it will take time to get back in the groove.
After the holiday rush is over we hope to find time in
the weeks ahead to make other additions and improvements
we've planned, but just haven't found the time to do.
Lately we've been reading the educational experts"
relate quality teaching to salaries. Let it be understood that
we aren't against Improvement in teacher salary schedules.
However, we can't see eye-to-eye with those who would
have us believe our kids in this area of the country aren't
getting a good education because the average salary is lower
than that in another part of the country.
Unless we've been misinformed along the way, persons
from the Midwest did better as a rule when entering the
Armed Services than others from around the country.
We don't particularly appreciate that type of smoke
screen from these educators far removed from this area
telling us our children aren't up to par with others in the
country because of our salary scale isn't exactly the truth
to our way of thinking.

Criticism
DEAR EDITOR:

A great deal has been said and
written about the need for good
chaperoned entertainment in Sid
ney. Many people believe that
Sidney has no recreational outlets
for kids. Perhaps they haven't
taken time to consider how many
various groups have a variety for
young people to choose from.
There are, for instance, many
church activities; the recreational
council is set UP through the re-
presentation of various churches,
civic organizations, and others, 70
provide entertainment such as
swimming. skating, baseball, etc.
KICK has had many record hops;
there are many scouting and Al
activities for boys and girls and
the lodges and other clubs have
their youth activities.
In addition to these, the young
people themselves have made en-
tertainment with the help of the
National Guard in providing The
Armory for teen dances.
1t is the concern of the twiSter:
that the dances that they put OF
are kept orderly and in gooC
taste.
Parents are welcome to come Il
our dances and enjoy the must,
and see what a great time The
kids are having. We would rath
er they come and visit than Il
listen to criticism by those wins
do not attend. These dances art
chaperoned. The parking lot a

those who come and go.

Editorial Short Shorts

A new and infinitely dangerous concept of taxation has
been gaining currency, and it has its enthusiasts in high
places.
1t holds that taxation should be used as a social instru-
ment, to bring about some desired result other than the
raising of government revenue and that, also, a tax is and
should be an effective weapon for regulating the economy.

controlled free fall of thousands
of feet before opening at ZOO
feet. During this fall the rate
of descent can be altered from
about l25 mph to about 200mph
by changing arm and leg posi-
uons.
''In fact it is possible TO
do almost any maneuver that a
plane can do except gain at
titude," Bob points out. "This
includes figure 8's, back and
forward loops. barrel rolls and
the like"
In a normal jumpfrom 10, 200
feet, Bob drops about 5000
feet in some so seconds be-
fore opening the parachute. The
proper time for opening at 2 200
feet is determined by observing
an altimerter and stop watch
mounted on a control board on
his chest, or reserve parachute.
Once the parachute is open
the direction of his drift can
be controlled by manipulation of
control lines which alter the
position of air slots in the
canopy.
AS an added feature of his

THE picture above was snapped few
IL moments after Super Shell with an
extra mileage ingredient called PlatfOrmate
delivered a mileage bonus of 4.33 percent,
That's typical result from series Of
mileage tests Shell engineers recently ran
on the outskirts of San Francisco.
The tests compared two gasolines One
was gasoline Shell scientists purposely
blended without Platformate. The other
was Super Shell-the same gasoline as be-
fore bit with Platformate added
Shell engineers used 1862 convertible
