PODPORA LIDSSOST BRATRSTVI

20. LISTOPADU (NOVEMBER) 1963

OD REDAKNi110 STOLKU Doael nam nedavno dopis z Austinu od sl. Margaret Kutaeove, kterY zaslala panu Romanu Bartnktvi v Taylor ohledne vyuoovani eeatiny na statni universite. Sl. Kutatova je pkedsedkyne kiubu "Cechie", a pik: ".

Na studovani kskeho jazyka, je nyni zapsano pouze devet studentt. Jest to nejmengi poeet mku co kdy bylo. "Maki eeskeho jazyka dr. Pribfe a byvail studenti jsou toho nazoru, Ze se musi apelovat na vkchny 'Ceske spolky a organizace v Texasu, bychom oni zase urgovali svoje eleny, pratele a deti se ueit eesky jazyk. Byla by to hanba kdyby doglo k neStastnemu vyloueeni nage matergtiny k vuli nezajmu a neteehosti nagich krajant."

Redaktor tohoto easopisu se citi, jsme jiZ dost hodne o torn psali a celou vec ventilovali. Zda se, e se nevi jak se ma utoeit na problem a nedostatek Zakil na universit y , ktefi by meli zajem studovat katinu. Dle studentskeho seznamu na statni universit y, jest circa 300 studentii studujicich v rilznYch 0borech eeskeho 'pihrodu. Proe vice z nich se neuei eeatine? Vedi oni aspon, ze eeWna se vyueuje v jejich 'Akole?

Jest take dost move, ze mlade'Z dokoneujic high school nevedi, Ze maji prilaitost se ueit eeskemu jazyku Austine. Brats August KaciS je toho nazoru,ze potrebujeme ykobecnY seznam Z"akti z tech high schools kde jest hods*

Ash, dedouSku, pripada mi, Ze Zijete dosud a nand. poeet eeskeho lidu a jich pilmo informovat o prilditostech na statni university. Peed triceti lety nak statni universita a jine vyaai akoly byly toho presvedeeni, ze je tkba se uelt pouze jednemu cizimu jazyku, ale po druhe svetove valce piiali na to, Ze to stanovisko jest chybne, protok Amerika

El Campo, Texas Ctene. redakce a mili bratri a sestry naei mile Jednoty. Podzinini obdobi mame velice inirne a prekresne, a posledni distriktni schuzi jsme odbyli, ktera se vydarila. Pani Brdeekova svojim programem a s y Ynai neinkujicimi spestrila tu schfizi.

Pro naei Jednotu tyto okrskove schfize jsou jak bych rekl, divujici, ale take posilujici. Ony maji veliky yYznani, pro Zivot naei Jednoty, stejne jako jine podniky, treha vice merle zabavne, ony nas svadeji ,dohromady, at' se shromaZdime, na schfizi nebo v nejakem zabavnYm podniku, setkame se s bratry a sestrami od jjnYch radu. Pii takovem setkani zamatne naee srdce nas nuti, ze citime potrebu sdilnosti, stati se bliZeimi druh k druhu.

Naeim srdcem, ktere easem jak by usychalo pri takovCm shromaZcleni, mi neco prolne jako proud osveZujici vody, a pak veichni spoleene, projevujeme a divujeme lasku k naei Jednote, a snaZime se ji neeim uZiteenYm prospeti.

Bez techto n okrskovYch schuzi by tak tomu nebylo, — nebylo by toho osveZeni to naei lasky k Jednote, a nebylo by vzpruhy, pro dalei naee snaZeni.

Ve schfizi v Hillje bratr S ' eveik se primlouval by ve sjezdu se jednalo aby se uskutecnilo zarizeni tak zvaneho bora mladeCe. Ja jako organizator na vyminku bych se primlouval by Jednota koupila pro tu mlacIeZ uniformy, asi 50 pro chlapce a 50 pro deveata. Devana pfiklad: v East Bernard, k radu eislo 28 Karel Jonee, jsem pojistil hodne do tak zvaneho detskeho odboru, jak jsem jich mel 100 tak jsem jim udelal takovY malt' piknik, dal jsem jim 10 galonft zmrzliny a sodovky, tak jsme veichni men dobre Case, -SPJST-Sestry od radu nine pomahaly a tu omladinu.

Ve stredu, dne 20. listopadu 1963 to zvolili. Jednota tim ziska tu mladd, a ta je ten pravy zaklad pro Jednotu.

Co se tyke toho tabora pro mlacle2.

Jeden tabor by Jednote neprospel protole Texas je veliky, i kdyby se zaridil ye stredu statu, mame rady v Galvestone a Lubbock. Nejlepe by bylo by kaLlY okrsek mel s ynj Tabor mladde.

Jednota by "noble koupit pozemek a postavit neco pro nepriznive poeasi. kaZcly okrsek ye schdich by si zvolil vYbor, ten vYbor by odporueil Jednote misto, kde by si ten okrsek pral miti tabor mladde.

My veichni radi mluvime o demokra,cii, ktera, se stala naeim dedictvim, a. mluvime o americkem zpfisobu Zivota, aveak demokracie a naee Jednota musi bYti stale chranena, a yydrZovana kaZdYni z nas a proto kdo me uctu a lasku k Jednote jednej pro blaho jeji, a ye sjezdu dej hlas v Jednoty prospech.

Ve streclu, dne 20, listopadu 1963 MASARYK F1LOSOF SESTAVIL J. B. KOZAK Etilka a alkoholismus Mluvime-li o aikoholismu, nebeli o objekt, vino, pivo nebo kotalku, nybr2 o pijici subjekt, o duchovni a dueevni stay pijeka, jak se nasledkem piti vyviji, a to individualne a clediene; beli o cele psysicke byti pijaka, o cely jeho charakter a Zivotni nazor, a ne o objekt, alkonol. Alkoholik tim, Ze se rozhodne pro piti, stavi se upine jinak k nejdillelitejeim Zivotnim otazkam abstinent. Piti a nepiti znamena dnes volbu a rozhodnuti mezi dvema,lne raznymi Zivotnimi nazory. tedy uvatovati o aikoholismu se stanoviska etickeho, musim s nim predpokladati aspon hlevni znalost alkohlicke hygieny; jen trochu vzdelany student, lekar, ueitel, duchovni, soudce atd. nema ,dnes jiz prava rici, Ze nevi, jak to s tim stoji. Ted v kahlYch sluenYch dennich listech mete obeas zpravu o dneeni otazce alkoholu.

Budu se zabYvati alkoholismem jakoZto chronickYm zjevem hromadnym, jako hromadnYin etickym nazorem a hromadnou naladou, oveem i pijakem jednotlivcem; kdy'Z yeak mluvirn kratce o piti a pijacich, opravriuje mne k tomato zkracoveni skuteenost, ze piti ✓ pritomnosti znamend piti nemirne, nebot' zcela ojedinelych, skuteene mirnYch pijakk, kteri posuzuji a poZivaji alkohol jen jakoZto lek, jest podle zkueenosti tak meld, Ze neprichazeji v vahu. Pro etieke posouzeni piti musime napred odnavedeti na otazku, zdaalkoholismus, jak se east() tvrdiva, jest nasledek hospodarskYch nebo socialnich non-ern, nebo je-li jejich pHznakern, nebo je-li prieinou zla, ktere m u viideove ,abstineritniho hnuti klaclou za vinu.

Dejme tomu, ze by byl jen priznakem.

Lekari maji ve znaene mire jen priznakovou medicine, a pies to nikdo nebude chtiti medicinu zcela zavrhovati; prave tak by . nesmel ZadnY scudnY elovek zavrhovati protialkoholni hnuti, jestliZe by alkoholismus byl jen priznakem, epifenomenem jinYch pomeril socialnich. Ale •alkoholismus jest vice na pouhYm priznakem, epifenomenem jinYch pomerk socialnich. Ale alkoholismus jest vice neZ pouhYm priznakem, take vice neZ poulaYin nasledtem, stavajicim se zase ihned prieinou. Alkohclismus j est prim p pfisobici prieinou tech zel, jeZ vedecke hnuti abstinentni mu prieita. Jest pravda, ze v dueev-

VESTNfK nun a spoleeenskem Zivote lidi neexistuje pouze jeclind prieina; alkoholismus rovneZ ma sve prieiny a spoluprieiny, ale lakes to jest sam nejsilnejei spoluprieinou vei to bidy, za njC jest einen odpovednym.

Zkueenost tedy dokazuje, ze alkoholismus predstavuje chronickY, idegenerativni proces celeho dueevniho Ziti, jest docela patrne subetickY, neetic:kY a pratieticky celkovy sta y jedince a spoleenosti.

0 otazce alkoholismu treba uvaZovati zyleete se stanoviska moderni etiky.

O tom, co vlastne moderni etika jest, mohou panovati velice rozlione a protichadne nazory; ale myslim, Ze nechybim, postavim-li zde jako zaklad etickeho snaZeni nynejei doby yypracovani harmonieke a energicke osobnosti. Harmonicke: :chapeme mnohostrannost lidskych schopnosti a vloh, a chceme proto, jak rikame, vychovati zcela jednotne propraco yane lidi a charaktery. Energicke: poznali jsme velike dkoly, ktere novy spoleeensky Zivot ;kaZdema uvedomelemu individuu ukleda., a yyZadujeme proto kaZdY od sebe sama i od druheho, aby byl osobnosti vyvinutou, einnou a k einnosti schopnou.

To asi rozumime slovem individualismus, kdyZ vZdy a ye veech oborech se chvali individualismus, jakofto urei0, a ureujici vlastnost charakteru noye doby, kenkretneji myeleno noveho eloveka.

Tento individualismus znamene eticke snaZeni nave doby opravoiniciativy —nejinalk, nnilZeme smysl a vyznam individualismu eticky formulovati. Socialni a politicka hesla: volnost, autonomie, selfgovernment, demokracie maji svuj eticky koren v pravu energies v pravu osobni iniciativy sebeureeni, sebec yladani, to jest yelikY eticky problem pritomnosti, mluvi-li se o prehodnoceni hodnoty, prirozenem pre,vu, etiekem anarchismu nebo aristokratismu atd.

Dnes Mdeme na lidech energii, cheeme byti lidmi silne yule a takovYmi je chceme i miti. Drive se to nevy'Zadovalo; ye stareich dobach a jeete ted' jest site yyZ'adovana pile a vytrvalost, ale vedle toho z yldete posluenest, diivera a vira, t. j. vira v jine, a ikratce reeeno vira ye vedouci vyvolence a jednotlivce: my veak jsme pochopili, nepot•rebuieme sle p e viry, nYbrZ uvedoniele presvedeeni, my nemiiZeme a nechceme pouze nakedovati a poslouchati, nYbrZ my musime a chceme se koneene sebeureovati a sebeovladati, pochopili jsme, ze moderni elovek musi

7 sve i sveho okoli osudy v zapletonem spoleeenskem Zivote s Upinou jasnosti streliti a na jejich 'keel/len-1 Yybudovani cilevedome spolupracovati.

Odvaha k initiative, to jest ono prakticke heslo reformaeni pritomnosti; YyZaduje od moderniho elo yeka, aby tvoril dejiny, a kaZdy z nes je ma tvorit, ma se cluchove a dueevne pine yyZiti, nema si nechati prodpisovati, nybrZ ma umet sem yolne postupovati.

Sebeureeni a sebeovladani, to jest y elike snaZeni moderni etiky a tato etika musi alkoholismus odsouditi, nebot' on zeslabuje a zhoreuje chapavost, oslabuje schopnost myslit, kazi einnost fantasie tim, ze misto ni posiluje nejasnou a bizarni fantastienost. Pijak ztreci sebeovladani, zeslabuje svou vuli, odvahu, sve vnitrni svobodne sebeureeni, svou odpovednost a schopn.ost pro jine myslit, citit a jednat, Moderni etika zada od kakleho elovela, aby k otazce pokroku v kaMem smeru zaujal stanovisko a rozhodl se pro pokrok, t, j. nejen pro vYvoj, nybrz pro zdokonaleni. K tomu yeak potrebuje jasne hlavy a eiste mysli. PokrokovY a pokroku prizni yY elovek tomnosti musi se rozhodnouti z presvedeeni pro social/1i idealy, musi si sestrojiti s Zi you fantasii, ale bez fantastienosti plan budoucnosti, jehoZ chce dosici, nebo aspon jej pripravovati; pokrdkovy moderni elovek musi si vecleti rady v prostredcich, jea si initZe k uskuteeneni s yYch plank vyvoliti; musi poeitati, odmerovati a pripravoyati se, ponevadZ veekera prakticka mot zaleli no, predvidani a vymerovani predem, • Etika pokroku priznive, yyZ'aduje od moderniho eloveka yyeei dueevni stay, alkoholismus cslabuje a sniZuje celeho eloveka, kterY jest pak zpateenickY, pokroku nepratelskY, reakcionerskY. Pijak jest nejhorei filistr a reakciono.r.

Nej yyee chopi se fantasticky pijak topismu, ale utopismus jest vlastne take jen reakcionerskY. Pijak jest hazardni hree, kterY vsazi do , hry celou svoji budoucnost, syilj Z'ivot; pijak uzavira se prod pohledem v zakonnost sveho i ciziho Zivota, nebot' nechce a ani nemtZe jasne myslit. Pijak stave se fantastou a proto fatalistou, neobmezenem fatalistou a utopistou; pijak stave se povereivYm, porievad :, i nepostrehuie prirozene spojeni b-u.doucnosti s pritomnosti, protoZ"e jeho rozervand fantasie predvadi mu utepisticke obrazy budoucnosti, zatim co zeslabena yule a energie niei jeho nracovitost. Pokrok bez prace jest preve utopismus.

Pijak jest proto velmi east° hreeem,

8 hazardnim hraeem. ije prove v neskuteOnem, faleSnem svete alkoholove utopie, veri a touti po zazraku takovou merou, jakou prove jsou jeho sily zeslabeny a znieeny. Pijak, obelhava se prove ze zvyklosti, tvai si docela lunotnym zpasobem faleSnY svet, faleSnou budoucnost. Pitt a prace jsou nejprikrejSi protivy.

Alkoholismus jest nepokrokovV, ponevadtzeslabuje individualismus. Pokrok, jak uei moderni filosofie dejin a socialni politika, jest organickYm poldraeovanim v novodobYch snahach reformaenich; pokrok neni many bez; neustale reformace, bez sebereformace a proto neustale sebevYchovy. Re-, formace znamena, pro moderniho eloveka jen nepretrtitou a stale obnovovanou reforma;ci, to jsme si ujasnili pozorovanim a vedeckYin posuzovanim ciejinneho vYvoje.

Lasko, k blitnimu a prace pro nej vytaduje v tomto pripade.davati priklad abstinence. Priklad proti prikladu . Prikladem piti hrek se nejvice, nejvice pijada bylo svedeno prikladem. 2adnk elovek nema prirozenou potrebu , alkoholoveho jedu. Priklad abstinence musi davati z yla,Sle inteligenti, nebot' ti musi dnes pine znati vYznam alkoholismu. , • TakovY ueitel mute detem vykladat, co chce, duchovni mute detem evangelium treba rozkrajet a kdyt ho pak cleti vidi pijiciho a snad opileho? Zkuknost uci, to vkchna vYclao,vo dosahTie se ne reel, ale tivoucim prikladem, a jest tedy povinnosti vzdelanYch a vticleich kruhit teoreticky poueovanim a prakticky abstinenci nieiti alkoholoYou poveru.

Jak jest maim, any takovy , elovek, kterY vysecla denne par hodin v hospode bez vzduchtt, beze svetla, bez eistoty, aby dovedl citit? Nemotno. 0sobnost, charakter, to se nemdte jevit v presnosti place, pije-li se, protote prove smysly se tim seslabuji a tudit tim nemotnejSi jest katcla veclecke mySleni.

• Pohledneme-li na rodinnY divot, musime si priznati, te alkoholismem rodina trpi. Jak jest many rodinny tivot a zejmena nos inteligence, at' tit je to ueitele, arednika nebo koho j inehe. Od rano je v erode, pak prijde doma, misto aby zestal v kruhu rodinnem, musi si jet oddychnout, odpoeinout — do hospody.

Piti a alkoholismus Skedi pomeru mute k zone. Porner ten jest sniten a

Prava, a silna laska jest eista a cudna.

NA RECE MORAV:t

se nam, de stromy, pacile pies teku z obou stran Upine pfehradily jeji tok, takde jsme se museli s kennou prosoukat vetvemi.

A v teto smesi listnaet s vysokym, hustYm podrostem, dije spousta vodnich ptaku i savcu. Stale pied vami poletuji skorci a jen tam, kde se ieka rozkri, nechaji ptejet, amid by odletli. Hluene se zvedaji pked loth diyoke kachny a eirky. Nejrortomilejk jsou maid, kachnata. Tu Se kutali jedno za druhYm po pfikrem hlinitem brehu ad Splouchnou do vody, jindy se jejich hejno pied blikci se lodi shiukne dohromady, aby nahle jedno z nich vyrazilo s mocnkm placanim ktidelek o vodu a ukrylo se, prorvazeno ostatnimi, pod yetvemi strom y na druhem btehu. Jen pozorovani tohoto pia.iho sveta stoji za pod/16..1-1i Moravy.

Napsal Karel Knapp Kdyd se mne loni znami vociaci ptali, kam mam o dovolene namiteno, a uslySeli odpoved', de na Moravu, zatvafili se dost pohrdlive. Co je to za teka? Zadne peieje dadnY vzruch, a kolem rovina, lautr rovina, pole a zase pole. Neodporoval jsem, v gdyt' jsem toho o Morave nevedel o moc vic. Ale ta,hla mne sem zvedavost a trochu take prestid: nevynechat ani tuto modnost, sjet dosud neznarnou teku.

Ned zaenu svoje vypraveni o plavbe, musim iici, de moji ptatele se velice A vyslovit pokily nad tint, de vodaci, dijici v blizkosti tato teky a prahnouci touhou po Ludnici a Hronu, vubec nevedi, jakou krasu maji za humny.

Za misto startu jsme vzhledem ke sttednimu vodnium stavu, kterk byl zaeatkem dervence minuleho roku, zvolili Rudu nad Moravou, kde lezi nadradi tesne u vody. Odtud byla Morava dobie sjizdna. V prvych dvou dnech plavby ukazoval vodoeet v Olomouci 97 a 88 cm.

Morava pod Rudou n. M. ma charakter hortiho toku — pefejky se stfidaj i s rychI'mi proudy, prudke pefejnate oblouky s kratkkmi meleinami, je plavba zajimavd, s peknymi vYthledy na vYbedky jesenikt.

Nektere jezy na, Morave odvadeji vetSinu vody, takde jsme museli poudit dlouhkch nahont. Rychla jizda v tzkych nahonech, zpesttend ostrkmi zakruty, stromy nachylujicimi se nad vodu hned z te, hned z one strany, je poutavejk ned plavba vlastni iekou.

TIsek z Moravidan do Olomouce povaduji za nejkrasnejSi z cele Moravy. fteka tu eile proudi listnatymi hustYmi lesy, east° pkeklada, sve koryto, rozleva, se misty do site, aby napeti v tzkYch pefejich pfekonavala vlastni nanosy, rozleva se v ramena a vytvaki ostrovy a ostrtyky, ,ktere jeke nezarostou a ud ptenak jejich oblazky a pisek jinam. Tu vyeniva, uprostied reky obrovity patez jako svedek toho, de se tu rozkladal les, kterY musel ustoupit dravYm vodam Moravy. Jinde ieka bij e v ostrem zakrutu vysorkeho hliniteho bfehu; tri stromy jid padly jeden ptes druhy, etvrtk se naklani a dalSi maji obna gene koieny. eetna, ramena, u nichd lze tedko Yeas poznat, .ktere bude sjizdne, proudnice nekdy na vnejkm, jindy na vnittnim oblouku proud, kterk misty silne zatahuje pod padle stromy, eini plavbu zajima- cut i po vodacke strance. Shiba

Tesne nad Olomouci icondi p•irodni biehy Moravy. Dal je ieka regulovana, a stava se mend zajimavou. Dallk neregulovanY ikratai Usek je pod fistful Beevy, kde ieka proteka ludnkm lesem.

Zde je jid Airoka a jeji vadnejdi, snejSi charakter pripomina vodaky obdivoyanY dolni Hron.

Pak je teka °pet regulovand a fiseky vzdute vody nad jezy byval dosti dlouhe. Posledni ptekrasnk Usek je od Vese11 nad Moravou ad po Rohatec. Mohutny tok Moravy je tu lemovan vysokYmi strmymi lotehy a rozlehlkmi piseenyrni plademi. Tvoti kerkove lavice, ostrovy, pteklada tok. Take v tomto tseku se setkavame s eetnYmi druhy vodniho a, bahenniho ptactva.

V Hodonine, kde jsme koncili plavbu, Ize vYhodne poudit nahonu, kterym se ptiblidime k nadradi.

Morava ma, malo jezt, nektere se 'n'ak obtidneji ptena,Seji. Za uvedeneho vodniho stavu byl sjizdny pouze jez v Ilynkove propusti ve Veseli nad Morayon po spadove desce a jez ye Vnorovech.

• Plavbu po Wforave lze spojit s tarami po, blizkYch jesenikach, navdtevou bradu Bouzova a krapnikovkch jeskyni Javotieka z lVforaviean, ptipa,dne se sjetim Beevy z ValaSskeho Mezitiiii. statni ptitoky Moravy — Desna, Mora y -skaSzvTtebfwkajsouzniMh vodniho stavu nesjizdne.

Z Moravy mtde odjet nespokojen pouze vc,dak, vyhledavajici obtidtoC pePei e , na kterYch by vyzkonkl svou zdatnosti, ale kaddy, kdo ma ra, ,,1 ptirodu a givot kolem vody, bude na ni rad vzpominat a jiste neprohlasi, de plavba byla fadni,

OFFICIAL ORGAN OF SLAVONIC BENEVOLENT ORDER OF THE STATE OF TEXAS

Reports from our Lodges, or any other Reading Material to be published sh.ould reach the Editor, Saturday before the date of issue.

Address all matters to the Editor: P. 0. Box 85, West, Texas.

FOUNDED 1897

Postmaster: Please Send Form 3579 With Undeliverable Copies to SUPREME LODGE SPJST, P.O. Box 100, TEMPLE, TES

FROM THE EDITOR'S DESK More on Czech language instruction at the University of Texas: In a letter to attorney R. J. Bartosh of Taylor, Miss Margaret Kutac, president of the Czech Club on the campus of UT, writes: " . . . This semester we have had only nine students register for Czech. This is the smallest number of students to have ever registered for Czech. Dr. Pribic, who is teaching Czech this year, and other former students feel that some move should be made by the Czech organizations to encourage their members, in turn, to encourage their children to take Czech.

I feel that it would be a disgrace with the number of Czech people in Texas if the Czech language would be forced out of the university because there is no interest ... " 4

Your editor ertainly feels that this Organ of the SPJST has not spared the publicity nor words on the effort to improve the situation at the Slavonic Department at UT. No one seems to know just where the deficiency exists.

How should the problem be attacked?

Perhaps not enough of our students finishing high schools, of Czech extraction, even know that Czech is offered at the U of T. Perhaps, as August Kacir suggests, we need to receive a roll of high school graduates from several hundred high, schools in Texas in order to inform them about what is taking place. He goes on to say that some thirty years ago, the University (decided, as well as other institutions of higher learning, that America needs only one language. Beginning with World War II, thinking on this changed. Our areas of interest invaded parts of the globe heretofore unknown to us and we were suddenly faced with the age-old problem of trying to communicate with the natives of a particular region. The Army Language School at Monterey, Calif., is training people in languages that were not even heard of twenty years ago. The

THINK IT OVER . .

A young man once found a five-dollar bill in the road. From that time on he never raised his eyes from the ground when :he walked. In the next 30 years he accumulated $1.60 in silver, 22 pennies, 11,318 buttons, 27,801 pins, a hunch back, a miserly character and a rotten disposition. He lost the glory of the sunshine, the smiles of friends, the beauty of flowers, trees, blue skies and all there is which makes life worth living.

Like that young man, busines men who keep their eyes glued to the ground fail to see the larger things going on around them. Some watch their competitors' prices and sales so intently that they lose all perspective about their own business. From year to year they pick up buttons and pins from the ground while their broadvisioned brethren pick the business plums from the trees. Others spend their time consulting dull papers when they ought to be out meeting live people, thus actually learning what customers do and do not like.

What a pity that more business men do not keep their heads up and view their business life with perspective.

Foreign Service Institute in Washington instructs prospective foreign service officers in obscure languages, in some instances spoken by only a few thousand tribesmen in a remote Dart of Africa. Every inch of the globe is of vital interest, or potential interest, to us now that we are engaged in a world struggle of conflicting ideologies.

• • Several months ago, this editor asked for information on ANY public school in Texas that was teaching Czech. We had no response to our request. Are we to assume that it is not being taught ANYWHERE in Texas? Apparently so.

Surely someone who reads the Vestnig, who knows of such a situation,

would have reported it. Personally, I know of only two places in Texas Where Czech is being taught at this moment, and that is Dallas a,nd Houston. Lodge 88 in Houston is holding a class of instruction, and the American-Czech Festival Committee is sponsoring Czech classes in Dallas.

What is the answer? We would like to hear from some of the readers in regard to this vexing problem, and perhaps some conclusions can be drawn. Be short, and be frank in your ideas on this problem. Is Czech really fading slowly into the past? Or, are people simply not interested and indifferent?

4 The sales contests are in full swing!

First, it was Districts III and V. (So far, III is far out in front). Then, Districts I and VI entered the battle arena.

Just last week, Districts II and VII challenged each other, starting November 15th. The contest between III and V runs through November 31st; the others run through the remainder of the year. These contests should prove to be "stimulants" to the organizers in the respective districts, and Vice President Joe B. Hejny and the District Organizers, together with their co-workers, are to be congratulated for their enthusiasm and spirit. The competition is friendly, and it can result in. nothing but good for the whole Order.

Nice prizes await the winning teams.

Good luck to all of them! We will be bringing reports on the results in each issue of the Vestnik.

Our visit to Lodge 20, Komensky in Granger on November 10th, proved to be very educational. We observed firsthand the election of delegates to the convention. This annual meeting was very well attended, but we couldn't help but notice (after checking it out), that the attendance was huge, compared to the attendance at the regular monthly meetings.

These payments totalled. $1190 million during 1962 and have been generally fo!'

for this purno.le $7.7 billion wa... companies under

come contracts. About $880 million in ,new fir was deposited with the companies for this purpose in 1962.

On the basis of a recent survey, 65 per cent of the funds deposited last year came from death payments, 23 per cent from matured endowments, 8 - per cent from cash surrender values ,and 4 per cent from other benefits.

The Institute said that the use of life insurance for income purposes has been a major aspect of the financial planning of millions of American families. The benefits set aside under income plans last year were more than double those similarly set aside 20 years ago.

For example, death payments are used to cover a wide range of income :purposes. Among them are readjustincome during the immediate .icd following the death of a policy.1 der; provision of income for the family while the children are growing no; or income for life for a widow.

Policy7colders themselves often make use of life insurance to provide themselves with an income. They do this through endowment insurance plans; through the cash values in their policies; and through retirement income policies. The latter provides insurance protection ,during the policyholder's working 'years, and a lifetime income after his retirement.

And as each new season arrives, Man knows there are certain changes he must make in his daily 'routine.

He inhales the fragrance of blossoms, hears the cheerful little voices all about, in the trees and meadows, and he knows it's spring. The scent of scorched earth; grasses and even the odors rising from baked asphalt tell him summer has arrived. At home, the mouth-watering streams of barbecue smoke and the roar of lawnmowers assure him that summer elements direct the activities.

One special group calls it the hunting season. It's a time when hunting Texans go afield and harvest the surplus of a very important resource, wild game. This group believes in the wise use of this valuable r( ..,ource, rather than the foolish waste La' it.

Texas is a land of outdoor-loving people, and each new with its !repetitious sounds and scents reminds us of a season past. They also remind us that it's time to rcv:u!w the past and some of the lessons -\\ e •have learned that will help us enjoy a safe and Pleasant fall season.

Man may be able to know a season with lust his ears and nose, but he cannot depend on just thine two senses while in the brush, midst. iice tall pines or stumbling along sonic rocky ledge when hunting. Nothing is mere important at this time than. his sense of sight, and his common sense.

Other hunters will be placing their lives in your hands .this hunting season. Use your eyes and u:'.11 them well.

Don't guess; be sure b: , yond a doubt 'that you're aiming at a game animal and not a •man.

Common sense may save your own life or prevent some serious injury.

Don't blast away at a lOw-flying dove and pepper a friend across the way.

When you cross a fence, unload your rifle or shotgun to be sure, or at least pass it through first and lay it on the ground to be safe.

Be certain that yot r eyesight is 20-20 or corrected thereto by visiting your eye doctor; don't discover that it isn't up to par in the field.

We can recognize a season with just two senses; no one will argue. But when it comes to hulli; I-1g, we must use all the senses o:.1. provided us with, and use them e, ••.2)::ringly.

(p) SOKOL HOUSTON Dear Members and Friends: Last week we had a most successful Sokol Circus and we wish to thank all who made this affair a memorable accomplishment. We only regret that all of our friends were not able to get inside to see the program. In fact, the hall was so crowded that even the entertainers had difficulty making entrance and exits. The program was very colorful, entertaining, exciting, and included even an animal act. The crowd was kept gasping when Sidney Soukup and Helmut Moll performed their giant swings and fly-aways on the horizonal bar; the clowns kept everyone in laughs; and the children and ladies kept the crowd in amazement with their unique gymnastics.

The program was concluded with the execution of a human pyramid in which the center of attraction was a band stand performed by Helmut Moll

on the outstretched hands of Bill Petrzelka. This was an amazing sign of strength and balance in which the pivot man, weighing about 180 pounds held up another person weighing 150 pounds. The pyramid was achieved by both our male and female gymnasts.

Following the circus, the Karel Matejka Orchestra kept rhythm in our dancing feet by playing all the favorite polka and waltzes. The day was a memorable one and enjoyed by everyone in attendance. The program and dance were free to everyone as has been the policy of Sokol Houston at all our barbecues. The circus concluded the sixth barbecue and the third program of the season and we hope to be performing for you again next spring. We have wonderful plans for the winter holidays which we will be telling you about in the future issues of the Vestnik.

Above is a picture of the entertain-

ers of' the Sokol Circus identifying the participants by name. We hope that this picture will help us in becoming acquainted with all our friends and customers. This photo does. not show all of our gymnasts because many of them had changed their costumes before the picture was taken.

Emil Kuropata, Reporter LODGE 48, BEYERSVILLE Dear Vestnik Readers: The 60th anniversary of Lodge Vysehrad No. 48, which was held on Sunday, Oct. 27th, was indeed a success.

President of the lodge, B. C. Stalmach, welcomed the people as they arrived.

He also had the opening address, stressing the work which has been done in the past and also the present.

Brother Joe Hejny, vice president of the Supreme Lodge, was next on the

18

VESTNtK

program. In a short talk he related the progress, the local lodge has made in the past 60 years: He then introduced Roman Bartosh, local attorney, who spoke briefly before presenting the main speaker, Senator Charles Her!ring. The Senator certainly held the attention of the entire group with his wonderful message. The next two on the program were both candidates for Congressman from the 10th district.

They each were allowed five-minute talks, and each spoke in his own behalf. They were Jake Pickel and Jack Ritter.

At this time Vrazel's Polka band began playing for a free dance from 5 to 6. Everyone joined in the fun and had a wonderful time. Even the two candidates found time to dance a special number, which was requested by Gene Fondreau.

Supper plates 'were available for anyone who was hungry. A public (dance at night concluded the day's entertainment. We all went home tired but happy.

We, the officers and members of Lodge No. 48, surely dj thank all who helped to make this day the success it was.

In closing, may we say we were indeed honored by the presence of our wonderful editor. He, as everyone else, is always welcome at our lodge. home.

Sincerely yours, Leon Shiller SPJST--

LODGE IIVEZDA TEXASU NO. 47 SEATON Dear Friends: Time goes by so fast that a person hardly has time left for writing. This letter should have been in the Vestnik last week, but we were so busy that we just couldn't find one minute to spare for writing.

Last Sunday we had one of the loveliest and I might say, most enjoyable affairs in our Lodge. The class of 191.314 ;honored their teacher, Mr. Chovanets, and we were honored as as one of their guests. He started his career here at Seaton on Nov. 3, 1913, so you can imagine why we thought this to be such a special affair. We helped the ladies in preparing the tables and getting things underway. On Sunday, when the time came for the guests to arrive, everyone was excited. I, for one, was certainly amazed at how nice the teacher looked, but you know, they say, that schoolteachers stay young longer because the children keep them that way, I wonder! In Mr. Chovanetz's

case I would say it is true. We were very happy and proud to 'have this group entertained in our hall. We hope that other classes will have such lovely gatherings also. The only trouble with this was that cur camera went on strike and we could not take any pictures. Once again, we wish to thank all for inviting us and for the very lovely time we had.

This is a big night for us children; that's when our good friend Santa Claus comes to visit us. So let's all be good and wait and see what he brings us this year. We also decided that all those in the program will put their names in a box and then will draw a name. You will then buy a little gift for the person whose name you have drawn. I think it will be fun We do that in our Sunday school and at the public school; why shouldn't we do so in our youth Club?

The door prize went to our secretary, Mr. Chas. Holy, and the youth prize went to little Sandra Holly. See you all on December 8.

I wish- to report that the Czech Day at the State Fair was a big success. I think everyone enjoyed themselves; I know I did. Since then, our junior singing group has been invited to sing at Lodge 84 on Sunday, November 10th.

In reference to our singing group I wish to thank very sincerely a dear friend who lives in California, who, through her kind heart has sent money on three occasions to Mrs. Valcik to treat car singing group for their wonki.erf of efforts.

We hope to get a larger singing attendance after the Czech lessons start this month.

Yours truly, Mary Frances Novotny DANCING IN CZECHOSLOVAKIA Only a year ago young couples on the dance floors throughout Czechoslovakia were percolating to the notes of "Yes Sir, That's My Baby!" as their parents did a generation before. They had taken over the Charleston with a vengeance and that extremely popular revival seemed destined to keep them hopping for some time. But the next thing you knew, the Twist had made its timid appearance and it didn't take long to "click." From then on the Charleston was passe. Now. wherever there is dancing in the big cities, 'you Will see experts swivelling to the strains of professional or amateur bands.

Quite a few parents, however, are shaking their heads. "What is the World coming to?" they moan. "In our day We were considered tops on the dance flor. But nowadays our children simply scoff .. . " Take Mr. and Mrs. C, for example: On Saturday nights they often step out with their neighbors, the N's, to a nearby dancing restaurant where they excel in waltzes and polkas. But a few weeks ago their teen-aged son told them that these were "old-fashioned." Bowed but unbeaten, they enrolled in their trade union's Twist course where, this same son says "There is some hope for them." He hasn't had the heart to inform his parents that this Twist has only a brief future . . . If they really intend to keep up with his generation, lie confides, they had better get ready for the Madison which is even now making its timid debut on Prague's dance floors. But the Madison, too, will probably have a short life expectancy.

Czechoslovak film director Jiri Sequens will shortly start shooting a feature film on the course, background and consequences of the assassination of "Reichsprotektor of Bohemia and Moravia," Nazi Reinhardt Heydrich.

The film will Show the courage and heroism of the men who were sent from England to remove the 1? eichsprotektor and the selfless help given them by Czech patriots. The authors of • the script Miloslav Fabera, Kamil Pixa and Jiri Sequens prepared the film in 1959. At that time the film was not made. After completing the script with further details they will start shooting the film this year. It is to be completed in 1964.

DR. ALES HRDLICKA ANTHROPOLOGIST ALES IIRDLICKA DIED 20 YEARS ACO September 5 marked the twentieth anniversary of the death of the Czechborn anthropologist Dr. Ales Hrdlicka.

Dr. Hrdlicka who was born in eastern Bohemia in 1896 lived in the United States from 1882 until his death.

In 1903 he became Director of the Anthropology Department of the National Museum in Washington where he worked until his death.

His life's work was devoted to determining the origin of the American Indian and the settlement of America and the origin of mankind.

After carrying out research in almost all parts of the world, Dr. Hrdlicka showed that the American continent was inhabited later and that man did not evolve there independently. He also proved that the human race arises

Dr. Ales Hrdlicka was also active in public life. He is remembered for his memorandum to President Roosevelt against racism, as well as on the threat of Nazism to Czechoslovakia.

Some of Dr. Hrdlicka's best known works were written in Czech "0 Pathologii Sil.u" (Pathology of Dreams) 1898, "0 Puvodu a Vyvoji Lidstva" ((Origin and Evolution of Mankind) 1923.

A group of 25 Czechoslovak doctors from various parts of the country left for a 12-day tour of the United States on September 11. The study tour is organized by the Czechoslovak J. E. Purkne Medical Society. It took them to medical centers in New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington and Chicago.

THE RENAISSANCE: AND THE CZECH LANDSCAPE. It was only in the latter half of the 16th, century, during the rule of the Hapsburg dynasty, that Renaissance architecture took firm root in Bohemia. Emperor Rudolf II, in particular, gave the trend great impetus when lie decided to make Prague not only his royal seat, but a European center of art and culture. With this in mind, the monarch invited scores of Italian arc stone•masons a n d builders from northern Italy to work and settle in Bohemia. These master craftsmen introduced the new style of Bohemia, with its humanistic concep -tionsfruh,ealismbutyand harmony based on an ancient Greek and Roman art, which had been eyolv-

24 ing in their part of the world for more than a century. In the previous half century the Renaissance and its flowering arts and sciences had definitely triumphed over the Gothic era in Italy.

Not only the Hapsburg monarch!, but also Bohemia's feudal nobles were fascinated with the new way of life and novel art forms which had become an integral part of Italy's court and city life. Eager to follow suit, they had lavish private Renaissance-inspired palaces and gardens built, the elements of which were often iria PPMpriate in this more northern climate.

Then, following the example of the Italian aristocracy, they invited to their courts philosophers, musicians, poets, scientists and artists. Under the ornate painted ceilings of their vast reception halls life became a succession of feasts and entertainment.

The first Renaissance structure to be built in Bohemia was the Summer Pavilion at Prague Castle, today known as the Velvedere. The structure with its surrounding arcade gallery has no counterpart anywhere this side of the Alps. Designed in 1537 for King Ferdinand I by the Genoese sculptor and stone-mason Paolo della Stella, this first truly Renaissance building — this summer pavilion located in a freshly laid out palace garden -- is characteristic of the ned relationship to life and nature.

Risen from the Ashes .

The Prague fire of 1514, which caused great damage to the Castle and its environs, was followed by considerable. construction up to the beginning of the 17th century. No .sooner were the flames put out than Prague's wealthy families. began building splendid Renaissance palaces on the sites of their burnt-out estates. Most striking of these was the R.ozmberk Palace, a four-winged build-

Its oblong garden was embellished with arcades. Close by stands Lobkovic Palace towering above the road which leads to the Castle.This early Tuscanstyle building with its decorative sgraffito exterior was the only completed section of the originally planned fourwing palace.

Renaissance Reaches the Countryside In the countryside, too, the Italian masters were greatly appreciated. Under their direction, impregnable medieval castles were rebuilt and enlarged with wings and courtyards, and a large number of new Italian-inspired palaces and mansions were built. The former often acquired certain Late Renaissance characteristics, usually four-wing structures occasionally decorated withh, sgraffito and crowned with elaborate gables. The courtyards, often bound on three sides by arcades, recalled those of northern. Italy with their increasing number of columns on each floor. Examples of these are to be found in Bucovice, Opocno, Kosice, Namest nad Oslavou and Moraysky Kr rimlov.

Summer Houses in a Cool Climate Summer houses and arcades were laid out in the castle gardens. Most remarkable of these is the rotunda at Jindrichuv Hradec dating from the end of the 16th century. This round building has a striking three-part window which is higher in the center. The stucco ceiling inside is richly painted.

The building is vaulted by a high cupola while arcades on either side enclose the castle garden. During this period summer pavilions were being put up in many parks. One of the early ones was the Hvezd (Star) Pavilion in the Royal Park just outside Prague. Built in 1555-56 according to the design of Ferdinand of Tyrol, its ground plan is a five-pointed star. The pavilion was decorated by Italian stucco artists.

The Renaissance made relatively few incursions into ecclesiastical architecture. Among the few exceptions are certain castle chapels or chapels added to medieval churches; the church of the Unity of Brethren at Mlada Boleslav (1544-54) is a large Renaissance Pseudo-basilica.

Everywhere You Look . .

Royalty and nobility by no means had a monopoly on Renaissance architecture. Italian and Bohemian architects changed the aspects of entire Gothic towns: they rebuilt old Town Halls or constructed new ones, some

Wednesday, November 20, 1903 with gables and spires. others with sgraffito decoration. They built schools, thospitals, town towers and gateways. (Particularly noteworthy is the Budejovice Gate at Cesky Krumloy inspired by Serli's designs.) They also adapted and built many burghers' houses with Renaissance gables, linking the native Gothic tradition, of gabled houses with the new style of the Renaissance. As in northern Italy arcades surrounded man y a town square and lined many a long street.

The bomes of certain rich patricians also had arcade courts. The sober articulations of these buildings were balanced by sgraffito and mural painting on the facades as well as inside. Towns of this sort with medieval ground plans and Renaissance adaptations have been beautifully preserved in southern Bohemia and southern Moravia. Their charming skylines are enhanced with Renaissance church spires and town towers with characteristic arcade galleries crowning the top By the time the Thirty-Years War began (1618-1648), the Italian Renaissance had penetrated every branch of Czech architecture and its imprint is still to be seen throughout Bohemia and Moravia today.

The Vlach Quartet of prague left for a six-week concert tour of the German Federal Republic and. Britain on October 23. (The quartet, which is the chamber ensemble of the Czechoslovak Radio, was founded in 1950. It has since won first prize and special honors at the world string quartet competition in Liege, Belgium, in 1955 and has given concerts in 18 countries in Europe, the Near East, and Africa. For its high standard and propagation of Czechoslovak music abroad it received the Order of Labor this , year. The Vlach Quarter will now tour fourteen towns in Western Germany and five in Britain. 'The Vlach Quartet is scheduled to make a six-months tour of Canada, the United States, Hawaii, New Zealand, Australia, and Japan in 1964.

• Czechoslovak puppets will again appear on the screen, this time in two Czechoslovak - Italian co-production films. The Prague Short Film Studios and the Italian Corona Cinematographica are shooting two puppet films on puppets — 'Czech Puppets" and "Undying Puppets" for film and TV. The films will show to foreign audiences and TV viewers the history of Czech puppetry in the past century.

For The Housewife LEMON CHIFFON PIE

4 egg whites 1 envelope unflavore,d gelatine 4 egg yolks 1/2 cup lemon juice 1 cup sugar 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon grated lemon peel Yellow food coloring 1 9-inch baked pie shell 1 cup heavy cream Sprinkle gelatin over 1/4 cup cold water, let stand five minutes to soften.

In top of double boiler, with wooden spoon, beat egg yolks slightly then beat in lemon juice, 1/2 cup sugar and salt. Cook, over hot ( not boiling) water, stirring, until mixture thickens slightly and coats a metal spoon. Remove from heat, add gelatin and lemon peel, stirring until gelatine is dissolved.

Add 2 drops food coloring and mix well.

Set mixture aside to cool. Beat egg whites just until soft peaks form then gradually beat in remaining 1/2 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons at a time, beating well after each addition. Continue beating until stiff peaks form. Gently fold, gelatine mixture into egg white mixture just until combined. Turn into pie shell, mounding .high and refrigerate until firm. Whip cream stiff and decorate pie, either a ring around the pie or all over, as desired.

FRESH OLIVE OIL BEST FOR SALADS

A salad is no better than the oil used in the dressing, and the best oil is a pure Spanish olive oil, tossed directly with the greens before condiments are added.

Sometimes, even when a pure, fresh olive oil is used, the salad will have a rancid flavor ® and this could be due to the wooden bowl in which the salad is mixed, or even the wooden spoon and fork used for tossing the greens, for the accumulated oil absorbed into the wood of salad bowls in time becomes rancid. Give your salad bowl the nose test the next time you are about to mix the greens with dressing: if from the bowl comes a strong, unpleasant odor, there is nothing to do but discard that bowl, start with another.

A top grade olive oil does not develop a rancid flavor as quickly as other salad oils, so that if only the best olive oil is used regularly for your salad dressing, your wooden salad bowl will have a longer life.

VESTNtIC NUTRITIONIST SEES DEADLY DIET

An American man who reaches middle age — 40 — can expect to live only three years longer than his ancestor of a century ago, a leading English nutritionist said in a Dallas interview recently.

Dr. H. M. Sinclair, head of the laboratory of human nutrition at Oxlord University, said that despite the tremendous advances in the last 100 years, man's life expectancy — now 71.6 years — is actually decreasing.

Dr. Sinclair said that 100 years ago the chief killing diseases were those caused by infection. Chronic degenerative diseases, heart trouble and cancer were almost nonexistent.

Citing the discovery of anesthetics, antiseptic. surgery, and the use of drugs and antibiotics as preventatives, he pointed out that infectious diseases account for only a small percentage of the current deaths.

But now the balance has shifted, Dr. Sinclair said, and chronic degenerative diseases are the chief killers of the civilized world.

The most likely reason for the increase in coronary thrombosis, strokes and certain forms of cancer, Dr. Sinclair said, is the changing diet habits.

Improper fatty foods "clog the arteries much like a plumbing system rusts out," the 30-year food study researcher pointed out. The clogged arteries result in an insufficient flow of blood leading to stroke or coronary thrombosis.

The cause lies in the "sophisticated processing of foods," he said. Many of the "helpful" acids are destroyed when additives are used to make foods last longer on the grocer's shelves. And a host of "harmful" fatty — saturated — acids are added, he warned.

"The important thing," Dr. Sinclair stressed, "is the ratio between saturated and liquid acids. The imbalance now existing can be overcome to some extent," and is being done by some manufacturers through "polyunsaturated" acids.

For Your Information: VIRUS-LIKE PARTICLES LINKED WITH LEUKEMIA

Virus-like particles found in the blood of children with leukemia appear almost identical to viruses which cause influenza and measles, Baylor University College of Medicine researchers reported recently.

Under the ultrapowerful electron microssope, the only instrument which makes them visible, the particles

26

VESTNflt

closely resemble viruses grouped under the name myxoviruses.

At this time the scientists can not say that what they have found is a cause of leukemia, or that it even is a virus.

They said they have found these particles, as many as two billion in a teaspoon of blood, in 19 out of a group of 24 children with leukemia. In a group of 40 normal children, such particles were found in only four, the investigators said.

Under the electron microscope, the particles are magnified 200,000 times.

"A mosquito magnified like this would be larger than a jet air plane," said Dr. Joseph Melnick, head of Baylor's virology department.

Also participating in the massive effort to determine whether viruses are implicated in leukemia and cancer in general are Dr. Matilda Benyesh-Melnick, Dr. Kendall 0. Smith, assistant virology professors and Dr. Donald Fernbach, assistant professor of pediatrics at Baylor.

All emphasized that the only thing now known is that there appears to be as relationship between the leukemia and the presence of the particles.

Scientists have proved viruses cause cancer, including leukemia, in animals.

They suspect the same thing is true in some human cancer, but a virus has never been isolated from a human cancer.

Investigators said the next step will be to isolate newborn babboons with material containing the particles in an effort to produce leukemia. If the disease is produced, it will be a giant step in showing the role of the particles in the disease, the scientists said.

-SPJSTPREHISTORIC EVIDENCii, IN NEVADA

Fifty miles from where modern man detonates nuclear explosives, scientists have found evidence that prehistoric man roamed 13,000 years ago.

Dr. Richard Shutler, curator of anthropology at the Nevada State Museum, and a staff of two dozen scientists labored in the heat and dust of Tule Springs in the Nevada desert for four months.

The sun-drenched site nestles in the desert 15 miles northwest of the glittering gambling center of Las Vegas and 50 miles south of the Nevada Test Site.

Their findings upset archeologists' theories about the length of time man

existed on the North American continent.

Dr. Charles Roz,aire, curator of archcolo{,Y y for the Nevada State Museum, said the excavations proved prehistoric man lived in the Tule Springs area 13,000-years ago pushing the previous estimate back 3,000 years.

Scientists unearthed bones of animals man ate, found fire pits where he cooked food and simple tools he worked with But they failed to find the ultimate proof, the remains of man himself.

Shutler explained climatic conditions- may have prevented the preservation of human remains. Such findings could be discovered in caves, "but we checked all the caves in the area," said the scientist.

A quartzite stone scraper is considered the most significant discovery of the project. According to Shutler "it definitely confirms that man lived here during that period (13,000 years ago)."

The diggings turned up stone flakes elli PPed from other rocks to make tools, two implements carved from camel bones and a bead of caliche, a hard clay indigenous to the area.

Scientists dug out remains of mammoths 16-feet high at the shoulders, bison 8 feet high and a compact prototype of our present-day horse.

Dr. Shutler provided this background: Prehistoric man is believed to have migrated to the western hemisphere across the Bering Straits, But not until Tule Springs was it known how long man had been here.

Small groups of nomads, descendants of Mongoloid races, dwelled in caves at the edge of a shallow lake, three miles wide and four miles long. They rambled over the pine-covered terrain, hunted animals for food and spent evening s around campfires.

Over the centuries faults in the earth and growing dryness caused the lake to vanish.

A field team from the American Museum of Natural History stumbled on the Tule Springs site in 1933. They found traces of cooking fires and a crude Lnplement with several fragments of animal bones.

Later three exploratory diggings were conducted by the Southwest Museum of Los Angeles. But exorbitant costs blocked a systematic probe of the site.

"We got everything we could with the whiskbroom-trowel technique,"

Wednesday, November 20, 1963 said Ruth Simpson, associate curator of the Southwest Museum, "but we could never completely explore Tule Springs because of the amount of dirt to be moved."

The excavation method makes Tule Springs unique in archeological annals. It marked the first time heavy equipment was used in such delicate work.

Instead of patiently pecking away with trowels and brushing the dirt aside with whiskbrooms, the archeologists employed giant bulldozers and scrapers to shave long trenches in a desert wash â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a delecate two-inch cut at a time.

Their main purpose was to cut rapidly through the accumulated deposits of centuries to a level where man lived when the desert was lush grassland.

Walls left by the cuts gave geologists and paleontologists a chance to study plant and animal life and even climatic changes during the tens of thousands of years man was developing.

When interesting material was spotted, the machines were rerouted to prevent damage.

"Then we used pick and shovel, dental tools, ice picks and paint brushes," Dr. Shutler pointed out.

The age of the various man-made implements was determined by the radio-carbon method of measuring decay employed by Dr. Willard Libby of the University of California at Los Angeles.

The Nevada State Museum announced that extensive archeological exploration of the Lehman Caves National Monument is its next target.

The site is located in central Nevada near the Utah line.

"It could be one more important piece in completing the picture of early man on this continent," said Dr. Rozaire. .. . NONE BUT THE EXTRAVAGANT WILL BURN TALLOW CANDLES"

The time: New Year's Eve. 1879. The place: Menlo Park, New Jersey. A young man named Thomas Alva Eddison is the principal host at the first public exhibition of the first practical incandescent electric lamp.

When Edison was asked about the exact cost of the new light, he was quoted as saying: "After the electric light goes into general use, none but the extravagant will burn tallow candles."

Fifty years later, during the "Light's Golden Jubilee" celebration in 1929,

Wednesday, November 20, 1063 Edison himself commented on how greatly he had under-estimated the future of electricity: "I must confess that I never dreamed that from the incandescent lamp would come the stupendous electrical industry of today."

The industry must have seemed "stupendous" in 1929 when compared with its beginnings, but its size and contributions to civilization have been multiplied many times in the more than three decades since.

In the history of electricity, the decade 1880-1890 is marked principally by the building of power plants and lines to supply electric lights. The first of these was the Edison Electric Illuminating Company of New York, chartered in 1880 to operate in a squaremile area of the New York City financial and commercial district. Edison was the master-planner and a major contributor of finances to the company which began commercial operation in 1882. By 1887, there were incandescent lighting systemS in 62 other cities.

The use of electricity increased steadily during the 1890-1900 decade as more and more central stations were built. Lighting continued to be the backbone of the central station business, but a great new demand for electric power arose in the electrification of street railways. It was during this same period that appliances began to put in an appearance. The electric iron, introduced in 1895, was the first to follow the electric fan. To encourage use of the iron, some power companies actually gave them away to their customers. With enough electric irons in the hands of the customers, management thought, a company could operate its generating plant during the idayliet hours on Tuesdays, because this was usually ironing day. On other days, the plant would operate only at night to provide lighting.

Prior to the turn of the century, use of electricity in industry was very limited, except for lighting. Applications of stationary electric motors were limited mainly to elevators, printing presses, lathes, sewing machines and the like.

Use of electricity in industry and in the home rose sharply during the first decade of the twentieth century. Handin-hand with the power companies' ability to produce and deliver larger and larger quantities of power came the perfection of new machinery and methods employing electric power to do industrial jobs. It was during this same period that appliances for the

VESTNXK home began to appear in wide variety and mass numbers. Among the more readily accepted of these were toasters, coffee makers, vacuum cleaners, washing machines and ranges.

-SPJSTUNIVERSITY EDUCATOR DEFINES COLLEGE SET IN THREE TYPES A man who served for 23 years as president of the University of Michigan says students usually can be classified into three types.

There are the noisy ones, the play-boys (and girls), and the dedicated ones, says Dr. Alexander G. Ruthven, president emeritus, who was in office 1929-1951. He describes them in his autobiography "Naturalist in Two Worlds" (University of Michigan Press).

The noisy ones, said Dr. Ruthven, "are determined to be heard from the time they enter college. Posing as authorities on almost everything at home and abroad, they insist they should run the University. . . . They usually claim to be liberals and boast of disrespect for authority. Common status symbols are . . . soiled shoes, jeans, shorts, untidy hair, and occasionally mangy beards. These students should disturb no one. One can usually assume that their activities represent growing pains. My disappointment with them as I have seen them later as alumni is that very few become liberal leaders and many become distressingly ultraconservative."

The educator said the "playboy (and girl)" had "in my experience" been a small group. He said that "complaints are often heard about the waste of money and time of instruction in trying to educate those whose ambition is to get nothing more than a `gentleman's grade' or to get married."

"The critics fail to take into consideration the number of these students who find themselves after they have entered college and go on to success as alumni and citizens," Dr. Ruthyen wrote.

"The dedicated ones," he continued, w more than any others make life worth living for their teachers" because they come to college "with their eyes firmly fixed on at least a general goal. " . . . Once called 'grinds' by the playboys and considered poor college citizens by the noisy ones, these men and women have in later years gained the more respectable title of 'eggheads.' Neither of these terms is appropriate."

27 JURY DUTY Jury duty is an experience everyone ought to have.

In a criminal case twelve jurors have a duty to do justice as each one sees it, and yet be unanimous. In most trials both sides have much to say, and the evidence is conflicting. The twelve jurors vary in their ability, temperament, character, education, and their experience in the world, and in the question at stake.

Yet a jury made up of both sexes, with wide age and educational differences, jobs and origins must all come up with the same verdict. Upon their verdict much depends — the life or liberty of others, and the public good. So it may take them days of talking among themselves, all to agree.

Jury duty calls for insight, common sense, courage, tact, fairimindedness, patience, (especially toward the jurors who disagree with you), good humor, tolerance, balance, willingness to hear others out and change one's mind, readiness to go over and over the facts to find something to bring agreement.

In short, jury duty demands a "decent respect for the opinions" of others.

More and more women share civic duties, especially as jurors.

Time was in Texas when women were not allowed to serve on juries.

They still cannot in four states.

A jury finds facts. It hears and weighs evidence and then comes to a verdict. It does not make the law — the legislature does; and the judge "charges" or instructs the jury concerning the law applicable to the particular case it is considering.

The judge will tell you not to find the accused guilty until he is proved so under strict rules of evidence. If you have any "reasonable doubt," -- not imaginary or far-fetched — acquit the accused.

Civil cases do not demand a moral certainty, merely the ' "preponderance" of what you regard as reliable and believable evidence.

No person should ever apply or inter pret any law without the aid of an attorney who is fully advised concerning the facts involved, because a slight variance in facts may change the application of the law).

28 TO THE PUBLIC: To hardened criminals a stolen automobile is a tool of trade. Daily, underworld gangs and hoodlums resort to and rely on stolen motor vehicles for deception and escape in the perpetration of major crimes. Auto theft rings, many with border-to-border o p -erations, recuingmace.tting ,huge profits for commercial car thieves.

The extent of the auto theft problem is exemplified in the estimated 356,000 cars stolen during 1962 with a property valuation of some $308 million. This was a 9 per cent increase over 1961, and statistics for the first 6 months of 1963 reflect another 9 per cent rise.

Assuredly, law enforcement needs every weapon at its command to cope with car thieves. Yet, in some quarters, there are a few who advocate the repeal of the existing Federal statute specifically designed to help fight auto theft â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the Dyer Act. Such a proposal could not be based on an objective appraisal of the over-all problem.

Let us take a closer took at some crucial aspects of car theft, Currently, the FBI is investigating a number of auto theft rings, some involving as many as 100 motor vehicles each. Recently, one group of thieves, operating in five states, bought late model salvaged cars for which legitimate title papers were obtained. The title papers and public serial plates of the wrecked cars were then used in the sale of stolen vehicles of similar make and model. In one case, a car was stolen in Canada, given a fictitious registration in a state not'having a title law and sold in Florida. Only a few v.ears ago, the FBI located 15 automobiles in Arabia which had been stolen in this country. The operational scope of highly professionalized car theft rings is almost unlimited.

Investigations of such violations are complex and far-flung. Usually, they require prompt, simultaneous action at different locations. On a national basis, 20 per cent of all automobiles stolen are recovered in jurisdictions other than that in which the theft occurred. In some areas, the recovery by otherjurisdictions is as much as 50 per cent.

Local authorities can hardly be expected to have facilities necessary to successfully follow through on cases involving multiple jurisdictions in various states. Common logic dictates that the responsibility fall on an investigative agency having jurisdiction wherever investigation is needed,

Wednesday, November 20, 1963 Some reasons advanced for the repeal of the Dyer Act include (1) delays obtaining judgment in Federal courts because of matters being handled Which have no legitimate Federal interest; and (2) the large number of Federal prison inmates, mostly juvenile, serving sentences for interstate transportation of stolen motor vehicles.

The facts fall far short of supporting these contentions.

During the fiscal year 1962, of the 36,108 defendants brought before Federal courts, only 15 per cent were charged under the Interstate Transportation of Stolen Motor Vehicles Statute. Of these, the vast majority pleaded guilty, leaving only about 3 per cent of the total Federal court defendants to -stand trial under the statute.

Some 1,490 auto thieves under 18, years of age were handled under the Federal. Juvenile Delinquency Act during the 1962 fiscal year. Of these, 40 per cent were , .diverted to state courts or dismissed, 25 per cent received probation and only 35 per cent were committed to Federal institutions. In addition, 73 per cent of paroles granted to Federal Juvenile delinquency Act prisoners in fiscal year 1962 were to inmates charged with auto theft. Accordingly, it would appear that juveniles detained in Federal prisons under auto theft convictions represent a rather small percentage of the total inmates. This is particularly true when compared with their disproportionate 'representation in the national auto theft problem where 62 per cent of all arrests are persons under 18 years of age.

Today, with almost 80 million motor vehicles on the nation's highways and the auto theft total increasing annually, the nullification of any available means to fi ght the crime would be a crippling blow to law enforcement.

J. Edgar HoOver, Director, FBI SPJSTDISPEL QUACKS, SAYS DOCTOR If society is to do away with "quackquack."

For we're not ever going to get peo.ple not to respond" to quacks as long as t tey are around, Dr. William H. Gordon, a Lubbock heart specialist, told the North. Texas Conference on Medical Quackery on tae Southern Methodist University Campus recently.

He was a participant at the American Medical Association's joint congress with the Food and Drug Adminis-

tration on Medical Quackery in Washington last year.

Dr. Gordon said that for "eons" people have felt "the pull of magic" of the claims of quick and easy cures for their ailments. "I believe they will continue to do so."

He said that while the quack "exploits faith, mocks the wishful and holds out hope where there is not hope, it is each individual who opens the door himself. All people who are duped enter the realm of quackdom willingly."

People who give themselves to the "clutches of a charlatan, escape only when they are broke or dead."

Terming quackery the "cancer of society," the doctor said much more is needed to combat it than just counting the millions of dollars it costs gulible people every year. The need is for "better laws" and "realistic appropriations."

What makes people succumb to a quack's claims? Fear is one reason.

"Fear is one of the strongest motives that govern one's life," said Dr. Gordon. "Fear of death, of pain. It can cause strange reactions in run-of-themill people."

Some people who are told they have cancer panic. "They are like horses caught in a burning barn. They can't bear the thought of death, surgery or radiation so they embrace his lies."

And in doing so, he added, many throw away their chances for real cure.

Superstition is sometimes the reaison. "People wear a thin'veneer of culture and civilization which covers a core of superstition and belief in magic."

A third key to quackery" is a person's "responsiveness." In a study using placebos (a drug which has no effect, usually a sugar pill), it was found that the personality of the person prescribing the medication had a great deal to do with its effect on the person. The "prescriber" can set up a "receptive' state," Dr. Gordon noted.

condition for which it is used develops when a weakness occurs in the wall of l an artery and bulge filled with blooll is created.

Left untreated, the aneurysm may:'! rupture and spill blood from the artery , into the brain.

The technique employs stiff, sterile hog or horse hairs which are injected into the bulge with a specially designed pneumatifc gun. Human hair was tried experimentally, the doctor said, but it was not stout enough.

Dr. Gallagher said the idea for the technique was based on the fact that a shaft of hair has scales, which cause the blood_ within the bulge, or sac, to begin clotting. The hair also serves as a nucleus for the clots.

After clotting has taken place, connective tissue cells called fibroblasts invade the sac and change the clots into starlike tissue.

The result of the process is that the distended wall of the artery shrinks to normal size, he said.

Fibroblasts are migratory cells and as such are found thronghout the body to support and find tissue. They are known to sometimes effect a natural cure by their action on clots in such conditions as varicose veins.

Dr. Gallagher said clotting seems to start within a few minutes after the hair penetrates the sac and in one case the sac was eliminated within 30 minutes following pilojection.

He noted that this technique seems to have a greater degree of safety than other methods. The treatment which has been customarily used requires exposure and isolation of the sac which raised the danger of its rupturing. He added that pilojection may be useful in treating certain. aneurysms that cannot be treated directly by any current surgical procedure.

He says his technique also eliminates the need for heart-lung machines and other auxiliary procedures.

Dr. Gallagher is attending neurosurgeon at Providence Hospital in Washington and associate professor of neurosurgery at Georgetown University Hospital.
