ARMS is a native sport very
popular in the Philippines, prior
to the coming of the Spaniards;
it was learned together with
reading, writing, religion, can
tation, and Sanskrit. In the
form of dance and combative
art known as sayaW at sinuIOg,
this native sport involves skills
common to any Western art of
combat. For instance, it requires
skills in the art of striking
Qabo), parrying (sagang), of
Tense and defense with a dagger
(bidio), throwing an opponent
(buno at handus), and disarm-
ing a foe (hukuas).
ARMS may be played with
two clubs baston), one long
and one short; with one long
club for each player, or with
two long clubs for each player.

The most popular form of
ARMS is the first one which
is usually played with two clubs
(bastOn), one long about (28 to
36 inches depending on the size
of the individual playing and
locality and one short (about
II inches).
While the sport was prohibit
during the Spanish regime, the
art was handed down secretly
among families and friends. The
low cost of the clubs used in
combat contributed largely to
the survival of the sport through
centuries of Spanish COLOMBIA

Some Farm Workers
Are Covered by
Social Security Benefits

Almost two million hired
farm workers are now building
social security credit toward
future benefits for themselves
and their families.
But, according to Glenn Gar
diner, social security district
manager in Billings, many
others who should be getting
credit toward old-age, survivors
and disability insurance bene-
fits, are falling to do so.
Gardner said that a farm
worker is covered by social
security if he is paid $3.50 cash
wages or more in year by an
employer, or if he works for
an employer on 20 or more days
at a time, rather than a piece
work basis. In either of these
two situations, the employer
is required by law to report
the workers earnings and pay
the social security taxes due.
These reports are due in
January of each year, Gardner
said. But right now, in the
growing season, the farm en-
plOyer needs to make sure that
he is keeping a record of the
people he hires so that he will
be in a position to make his
report when January rolls
around.

Montana Centennial stamp?
No. Charles M. Russell Centen-
nial stamp? It's possible.
This is what the Montana
Centennial commission has been
told by Michael S. Kennedy,
Montana Historical society di-
rector and commission secre-
tary.
'It is United States Post Of
flee policy not to issue a spe-
cial stamp for a states terri

only for the centennial of

as the result of his investiga-
tionS.
However, Kennedy added, 49,

the birth of Montana's famed
cowboy artist. Since the fed

for another Indian artist, Fred

established for the Russell
