ETAOIN SHRDLU 4 Prog by WESLEY R. RAMSEY LOmmil;:i;t v.' '!:K: 7' Those chain letters are at it a.gain. One was turned over to i the editor this week- for insp:'e- tion. Those things are silly you know it? This particular one we saw foretold all kinds of good "''t, ,E x kuck if the letter were only "pas sed on" to four friends and by ..- - erasing the name at the bti.tonm '' ' .nd inserting your own inam". : . Tommyrot! The letter was thie i hearer of all kinds of forebocings ; , if the letter were not passed and the chain broken. All you who believe such as that stand on ' your head. . No doubt you have heard of . "Bimbo" by now. Hope your kids haven't learned it too. And so we are going to heai that improved high school banci in concert. We can hardly wait. Band director, Herman Dean stated flatly that the band just would not appear in concert un- til he felt they were ready. Now these are pretty high standards as he is a "persnickety" musi- cian. A number has to be just right to suit him. So we would look in our crystal ball and fore- see an evening of enjoyable mu- sic. Wallace Findlay should lay it to those people up in Calhoun County. They have no regard at all for their woodlands (at least one of them doesn't). We had an occasion to be up that way about 4:30 Friday afternoon and as we were going across the Chi- pola River bridge we saw a fire starting by the roadside. We stopped at the first store the other side of the bridge and asked the proprietor to call the forest service and report the blaze before it got too big. He just flatly stated that if we want- .ed to alarm them on this matter we' could call them ourselves as . hedidn't care if the whole batch niirre-d. We called them. Can't help but think just how bad he would want that brush :and trees to burn if it started in back of his place of business. I didn't suppose hte would :waste' any time in reporting the fire to the forest service then. They would learn about that;right quick like. And the poor crittur just doesn't realize just how much he and his store depend on that brush and trees to keep him from going flat broke in a hurry. Speaking of forest fires, Gulf County' residents are no great shakes at keeping them down either, on this same jaunt up to Calhoun County, we saw three fires before we got out of Gulf County and just don't remem- ber how many former fires we saw, but it accounted for many an acre and many a young pine tree-and all on one short road. To Committee C. R. Garraway, Jr.. of Garraway Chevrolet Company has just re- turned from Birmingham, Ala., where he took part in a meeting of the Chevrolet Dealer Planning Com- mittee for this zone. Charlie Garraway was elected to the committee by fellow dealers under a nationwide program by which Chevrolet qeeps in touch with retail selling problems. In his position he acted as spokesman for other Chevrolet dealers in this area. The dealer committee system was pioneered in 1937 by Chevrolet and has since been widely used in the automotive and other mer- i chandising fields. The program serves as another means by which dealers and the company exchange views on industry developments and discuss mutual problems. Under the system: the more than, 7,600 dealers in the company's 43 zones and.branches first elect 20 committeemen for each area, or a total of 860. Zone committeemen meet and select representatives to- serve on the eight regional om- mittees. These 86 regional com- mitteemen meet and select repre- sentatives to serve on the eight re- gional committees.

STROKE A condition within the skull, ofter -esulting in paralysis or unconscious- .less or both, is commonly referred :o as a "stroke". The true term is apoplexy which refers-to the sudden rupture of a blood vessel (cerebral ilemorrhage) or the development oi a clot in a blood vessel (cerebra' ~hroiubosis). Frequently the victim of a stroke has symptoms of an impending a'- tack. -There'may be a "pins 'and needles" sensation in an arm and a leg on the same side, which quickly goes away, or there may be a sud- den or gradual weakness of an ex- tremity, which is short in duration:. There also may be some thickness, of the tongue and difficulty in pro- nouncing words for a few minutes or hours.oVhen a clot in .a blood vessel is responsible, the same sym- ptoms may be present. If the hemorrhage is within the brain and is extensive, the patient may never recover. When the dam- age is less severe, the patient may awaken hours or days later unable to move certain muscles or in some cases to speak. He may have various other disabilities, depending on the particular area of the brain involved. If the affected blood vessel is on the surface, then bleeding may he only into the space around the brain and there may be no obvious ilifficultv with the nervous system other than a headache, a stiff neck and fever. Strokes occur most often in per- sons beyond .the age of fifty, al- though they can also 'occur in a younger age group. That is why it is sometimes difficult, in young adults particularly, to decide wheth- er there has -been a hemorrhage around the brain or whether there is a sudden infection of the nervous system, such as meningitis or polio- myelitis. Exact diagnosis is essential. For example, if a tumor is the cause, surgery may be essential. On the other hand, if a thrombosis is pre- sent, specific treatment within the head is not indicated. Medical man- tgement is the controlling factor. DRIVE THE NEW DODTEU 1ob-Ritsd7 TRUESCE g/N, "sat 4 I I NEW! MOST VISIBILITY NEW V-8's AND FAMOUS 6's I NEW! ROOMIEST CABS NEW!

BUSINESS STATESMANSHIP AT WORK Following assurance by President Eisenhow- er, in his press conference, that the Government would go all-out in its measures to checks a re- cession if the employment curve failed to take the expected up-turn in March, assorted experts were summoned to Capital Hill for their advice. A number of the economists appearing before the Joint Committee .on the Economic Report seemed to think that we are now in a slump that is more severe than the Administra- tion realizes, and that even if the up-turn came tomorrow, it would still have been a "recession". Others felt that Administration remedies, such as raising the $600 income tax personal exemp- tion, would not be sufficiently potent. CIO President Walter P. Reuther disparaged the idea that "spring and the robins will bring prosperity". From the industrial centers, however, the nation received a transfusion of confidence. More substantial than the pessimistic analyses of the economists was the news that a group of large industries will add collectively another. two billion dollars in expansion funds to the billion previously announced by General Motors. ture Farmers, Fut O LATE 4-H Boys and Girl TOO LATGirl Scouts to sa TO CLASSIFY numerous Boys' SLASIKYmost of our large BY RUSSELL KAY Unfortunately, ularly our lme If you get to worrying about je- seems more con venile delinquency and think the porting activities linquents than youth of the country is going to those agencies tl hell on roller skates, take time out much to offset it to check on the activity of our Fu- voutih with .the 1 NE \ Corner Williams Ave. and 4th St. --/ S , - ii v"'i'c. a'., plus a new, bigger, more powerful NORLD'S RECORD "ROCKET" ENGINE! olor Vlu 9 5 1: Designed with a new vision!

Student Body Adopts New Constitution The Student Body adopted a new constitution last week with many changes. It was drawn up by the constitution committee of the SStudent Council. Since the Student ,Council is made up of student body representatives, it is for both the Student Council and Student Body. This adoption completely revised the method of electing representa- tives. They shall be elected at the end of each school term rather than the beginning. This will allow for a working council throughout the summer months. The method of electing officers was also changed'. According to the new 'constitution, the president must come from the Junior Class to hold office during their Senior year. The vice-president must be in the Junior Class. Both officers will be elected by the entire sut- dent body on the second Tuesday in Political Announcements For State Representative' I hereby announce my candi- dacy for renomination as' your Representative in the Legisla- ture from Gulf County.
