Community Auditorium, pA cA ea AN UNFAIR SYSTEM - Although Congress has endorsed the principle of uni- versal military training, the United States continues to wit- ness the operation of a draft and the recall of veterans who have already given several years of service in World War IL. This is continued at a time when many post-war gradu- ates and students, who have never seen any military serv- ice, enjoy life as usual and sacrifice none of their time in behalf of the defense effort. Naturally, recalled veterans of World War II are bit- ter when they see millions of young' Americans either in college or starting out in business who have never served in the armed services or made any sacrifice. The recalled veteran was required to make a major sacrifice ten years ago in World War II. Now he is often being required to make a similar sacrifice, even though millions of young “squirts” get exemptions from military service. This is a flagrant violation of the American concept of equal rights and it is nothing less than amazing that the average American tolerates such a condition, In France, s for erample, every able-bodied youngster is required to . serve in the armed forces for a fixed period of time—de- spite his family’s wealth or connections. The only exemp- - tion is for those who have already lost two brothers in combat, : In this country we have seen idealistic groups, church groups and other misguided organizations, bitterly oppose the principle of universal military training. Yet there is no principle more democratic, and which would apply the sacrifice of self-defense more equally to all the nation’s male youth, : Few husbands have the courage to beat their wives in a bridge game. No man is so ignorant as the man who is positive that he knows all the answers. Clothes may make the man but in our opinion it is the woman that makes the dress. The man or woman who is really interested in his or her work rarely complains about over-work. Personally, we keep a close eye on that type of man best known as a go-getter. He might get too much and some of it might belong to us.

BLAKESLEE AP Science Reporter NEW YORK WA safety test for cigarette smokers befcre they take anesthetics for operations was recommended today to the American Medical Association con- vention. The test is to cough, to make sure the breathing airways are clear, Or, for heavy smokers, to keep coughing untilrthey are clear. The test, and reason for it, were described by Dr. Barnett A. Greene and Dr. S. Berkowitz of Brooklyn. Smoking, and especially the in- haling of cigarette smoke, is a main cause of bronchitis, or in- flammation of the breathing air- ways, they said. Smoking is four to seven times .more common cause of bronchitis than anything else, including various infections. The bronchitis can lead to num- erous complications during or after taking of anesthetics, even those given by vein and not breathed in, like ether, Greene said. Some- times, it can cause death, due to phlegm blocking the breathing tubes, Anyone smoking more than a pack of cigarettes a day is likely to have such bronchitis, the doc- tors said. Two packs a day is fair- ly sure to produce it. The cough test is a safety meas- ure. The airways are clear if the cough is a single event, not par- ticularly easy to do. An abnormal cough is one which is self-propa- gating leading to more coughs, either “wet” or “dry.” Troubles can be avoided by asking patients to cough, to make sure the air- ways are clear. Another convention report tells of successful magnetic artificial eyes, for people who lose an eye. Artificial eyes look most normal if they move in step with the normal, real eye. The magnets to move artificial eyes look like a good answer, said Dr. Richard C. Troutman of New York Hospital- Cornell University. A magnet is piaced in the eye socket after the diseased or dam-| aged eye is removed. It is at-| tached to the muscles-which norm- | ally control the movements of the | eyeball, in synchronization with eye. Later, the artificial eye is put in place, with a magnet attached t the back of the glass éye. It then moves i, response to the eye mus- | cles. { Dr. Seymour J.

C. Minton, Ft. Pierce, was elected chairman of the Florida Citrus Commission Wed. at its annual organidation meeting. Minton succeeds L. Frank Roper, Winter Garden. Robert Wooten, Tampa, was re- elected vice chairman. In response to a query from State Plant Commissioner Ed L. Ayers, the commission said it would not object to his lifting a quarantine against California citrus coming into Florida. Ayers said he was asking the stand of all principal Florida citrus bodies before acting, but there is little point in maintainng the quar- antine since Florida now has tris- teza and other citrus diseases which caused the quarantine, Radford Confers TAIPEH, Formosa ®—Adm.

Not Geraldine Page. She Lape up Hollywood offers until she c come under her own terms, Geraldine’s story is a lesson in Perseverence. She was a Chicago girl who wanted to be a great actress. She went about it meth- odically enough, playing seven years in little theaters in Mlinois, Having amassed that experience, she knew she would have to tackle New York. After a number of ups and downs mostly downs, she landed a role in Tennessee Williams’ “Summer and Smoke,” which was being done by a little outfit in Greenwich Village called the Circle in the Square. She and the show were an instant hit. Big critics came to the little theater and went away to writs Tave reviews. The talent scouts from all the studios also came. Each had an interview with Geraldine and each got the same answer. “I don’t want to tie myself to any movie contract,” she told them. “Wait until I make a big name for myself on Broadway. Then I can come to Hollywood on my own terms, instead of signing my life away.” The actress now recalls that “they looked at me as though I were crazy.” But within a year her plan had come true. This season she appeared on Broadway in “Mid-Summer.”” The show was a failure, but it estab- lished Geraldine as the brightest new star of the theater. She tied with Shirley Booth in the critics’ vote of the best performance by an actress during the season. The determined Chicagoan then came to terms with Hollywood. Her own terms, that is. She signed a deal with Charles Feldman that gives the stage top priority in her future plans. Her first picture will be “Hondo” with John Wayne. She plays a pioneer wife, the only woman in the cast. The picture will be made entirely on location in Chihuahua, Mexico. My first view of Geraldine was ee too impressive.

Le sucedié en ese importante cargo, el Sr. Thomas Savage, pro- cedente de la ciudad de Boston, quien "nas tarde formara parte de la sociedad legal de abogados con bufete abierto, que se denominaba Allen, Long y Savage, en cuyo bufete practicaba leyes, como j miembro del mismo, el Gabernador Long del estado de Massachusetts. En el afio de 1847 se construyé un edificio de tres pisos, en un lote situado en la calle de Simonton, entre las de Fleming y Southard, en cuyo lugar qued6 instalada Ja denominada SEARS SCHOOL. En dicho edificio legaron a estar acomodados cerca de quinientos pupilos. El principal del menciona- do colegio lo fué Mr. Justin Cope- land, con un brillante cuerpo de Profesores integrado por ocho per- sonas. En el afio 1900 fué abandonado este plantel y destruido por com- pleto. En el citado SEARS SCHOOL, fueron sus principales, entre otros, los sefiores Barnes de Baltimore, Wyman, F. J. Cunningham, Taylor Lee, W. J. Cappick, Adolph Van Delden, John A. Graham, Byrne, Yancey, B. C. Nichols, Bonnington y M. P. Geiger. En 1870 quedo abierto también otro plantel de ensefianza para los nifos de la raza de color, llamado DOUGLASS SCHOOL, Fué su incia- | dor y principal profesor, un hom- bre de color, procedente de las Babamas, nombrado Mr. William M. Artrell. En 1887, bajo Ja administracion del Dr. R. J. erry, designado Superintendente de Instruccién Publica por este Condado; fué in- augurada una escuela publica en un lugar siutado en la calle de Gri- nell, entre las de Division y Vir- ginia. Esta escuela se denominé RUSSELL HALL, en honor del Honorable Albert J. Russell, Super- intendente de Instruccién Publica del Estado de Florida, en esos dias, prominente masén y distinguido Oficial confederado, asi como elo- cuente orador cuya vida fué dedi- cada toda por entero, a la causa de la instruccién de sus semejan- tes. El primer director de dicha es- cuela fué Mr, Taylor Lee. Sirvié este profesor un término completo, siendo reelegido en su cargo, por la magnifica labor educacional que realizé durante el tiempo de su empefio. Este gran ciudadano, fallecié el dia dos de diciembre del ano 1888, Le sucedié en ese cargo, de Di- rector, la Srta. Lovie Taylor, quien desempefiéd tal empleo, hasta el afio de 1911 en que renuncié al mis- mo, por motivos de edad y falta de salud. Esta damita tuvo un ex- celente record como profesora y durante todo el tiempo que actué, supo conquistarse el amor y el plantel y a los alumnos, pues el edificio era de moderra estructura |q; y tenia las comodidades necesa- rias para edificios dedicados a colegios. En el afio de 1909 un hermoso edificio de concreto fué erigido en la esquina de Southard y Margaret, Mamandosele | que sustituyo en calidad y métodos, al viejo nombrado SEARS SCHOOL. El terreno donde se edificié este nuevo colegio, costé diez y seis mil | pesos, y el costo de la ediificacion | superd a la suma de cuarenta y dos | mil pesos. La_ inauguracién de HARRIS SCHOOL tuvo lugar el dia 4 de Julio de 1909, anifersario de la In- dependencia de los Estados Uni- dos. En dicho acto pronunciaron elocuentes discursos los sefiores Jefferson B. Browne, William Hunt Harris, Dr. J. N. Fogarty, el Comandante Junter del ejercito es- tadouidense y el Comodoro W. H.
