She's shapely Marie Mendes, who cut the first cane to start the 1956 sugar cane cutting season. "HOT" MEAL HITS THE SPOT - .Volunteers apparently find chow good to the last droplet and succulent enough to lick the platter (pan) clean at Fitzsimons Army Hospital. Actually, it's their job. Eldon Miller, left and Kenneth Goertzen, want to get all the nutritive value possible from measured portions of a hot meal. The "hot" in this case refers to foods treated with atomic radiation as a preservative measure. Researchers want to determine if food values are affected by the treatment. Jupiter's 'Pimples' Puts Scientists On The Spot Messages from Mars? Now astronomers are wondering whether Jupiter, the largest and most massive planet of our solar system, is. also signalling to us! This question has cropped up following a report by Dr. B. F. Burk, of the Carnegie Institute, Washington, D.C., who says he says picked up radio waves from Jupiter every three days for a month. Australian astro- nomers have made similar re- ports. Four Moons Jupiter is 317 times larger than the earth and scientists have estimated that its atmo- sphere has a depth of 6,000 miles. But it has never before been authoritatively suggested that this amazing planet may be inhabited. It created a stir among astron- omers in 1927 when an eruption of luminous gases on the planet was seen from the summit of the Jungfrau, in the Swiss Alps. It was then, reported that the oval marking on Jupiter known as the Great Red Spot -which has been an astronomical mys- tery since it was first observed in 1664 -was increasing in in- tensity. Sometimes the spot fades away altogether..,, but it always returns. Minimum distance of Jupiter from the earth is 462 million miles. Before clocks were as re- liable as they are now, eclipses on Jupiter's four moons gave scientists practicallythe only reliable method of determining Longitude. An effort was once made to use thele in navigation for the same purpose, but failed. Scientists say it will be mil- lions of years before Jupiter be- comes as solid as our earth, Some think it is in- a 'semi-liquid state and that its temperature is so high that life as we know it could not exist there. Others say that 'as Jupiter is 483,900,000 miles from the Sun, compared with our 93,000,000, it must be so cOld there that a crust of ice many miles 'thick surrounds its molten kernel. Whatever the truth of all these theories, the outstanding mystery remains: what caused the radio waves which are puz- zling the astronomers? THE REAL TILING "They're very much in love with each other." "Really? How do you know?" "Well, when she's away she writes letters to him whether she needs money or not." "Another Blunder Of U.S. Diplomacy More and more it is obvious that the,. Outer Mongolia squab- ble in the United Nations was a neatly prepared Soviet trap. We blundered into. that trap - or, rather, permitted ourselves to be led into it by Chiang Kai- shek. There is every reason to think that Russia had her al- ternative plan, whereby Japan was excluded along with Outer Mongolia, well laid in advance. The net result of the exchange of vetoes is to leave Japan, alone of all major applicants, out in gift to the Communists. For now. Russia will be in a position to insist that Japanese member- ship in the UN be made contin- gent upon the seating of Com- munist China, whereas previ- ously the two issues were not linked. Furthermore, the great revues'' " of most UN members over ' fang's behavior will make it, very difficult if not im- possible to ob'iain a separate seat for Formosa, All this means that the United States is more than ever over a barrel, It will be understand- able in the circumstances if the Japanese feel thatthey must warm up to Moscow and Pei- ping, no matter how anti-Com- m>inist their orientation. Al- ready the Socialists are crying for the scalp of the pro -Ameri- can Foreign Minister, Mamoru Shigemitsu, for failure to obtain UN membership. For Russia has clearly bested the United States in a matter of diplomacy, and there is a real crisis for Ameri- can prestige in Japan. Yet Rus- sia did not push us into the trap. We stumbled in under our own power. - Washington Post Scottish Golfers Out on Strike The Scots, who gave the game of golf to the world, are celebrating the new year with a mass down -putter action against eight municipal golf courses at Glasgow which have raised their playing fees from one shilling (about 13 cents) to two shillings for an 18 -hole round. Between 1,000 and 2,000 golf- ers are reported ready to con- tinue boycotting the municipal courses until the old rate of green fee is restored. Pickets are reported in operation. Golfers in England, and even more so in the United States, will be rubbing their eyes in wonderment at ; how much the Scots expect' to get for their money. The Scots are striking against amaalaaiKaaaa CAR HITS HOUSE - It's too bad that "No Parking" sign wasn't standing in this living room sooner. It might have discouraged a 20 -year-old youth from plunging his car into the room. None of the four residents of the home were injured, but two walls were caved in and furniture was, heavily damaged by the crash. The young driver tried to leave the scene of the accident on foot, but police caught him and arrested him. the cold and prey to Communist blandishments, It was Russia, to be sure, that vetoed the Japanese application --but in such a way as to dump much of the blame, in Japanese minds, on the United States. Russia had given ostentatious lip service to Japanese member- ship by agreeing to it in ad- vance of the conclusion of a Russo-Japanese peace treaty. The final Soviet veto was com- pletely cynical; but Ambassador Lodge's charges of Soviet cyni- cism cannot hide from the Ja- panese the fact that it was the veto of Outer Mongolia by an American protege, Chiang Kai- shek, that started the chain` of vetoes in motion. Obviously, Chiang had de- cided that UN membership for Communist China is inevitable, and had determined that the Nationalist regime would go out in a blaze of glory. But the me- thod he chose amounted to a CASEY'S AT BAT IN THE COSTUME DEPARTMENT -A kimonoed Casey Stengel adjusts cere- monial wig on his wife, Edna, as the Stengels fake inventory of the trunksful of souvenirs they brought back from the Orient. 01' Casey accompanied his beloved Yankees on their recent aiixhibition four. a mere two-thirds of a penny a hole, whereas an English golfer expects to pay two or three times as much, and an Ameri- can - well maybe fifty to a hundred times as much, writes Peter Lyne, London Parliamen- tary Correspondent of the Christian Science Monitor. But things are different in Scotland. They not only have their traditional tight control over any needless extravagance with "bawbees" but they also regard ,golf as a part of daily living just as much as oatmeal and porridge. Therefore they say it should be cheap if not actually free. This particular parliamentary reporter has been acutely aware all his life of the prowess and tradition of Scottish golf. From the early days of boys' golf contests to the battle to gain a place on the Cambridge University golf team, there aI- ways seemed two more Scots in the way every time one Scot was removed. And now today in the more sedate competitions of the Par- liamentary Press Gallery Golf Society in London, one feels al- most a foreigner if one talks with an English or Welsh or Irish accent. It's a virtual cer- tainty one's next opponent is "Mac." The only question is: Which "Mac."? So no wonder the Scots back home in Glasgow are fighting a grim rear -guard action for their right to ,keep golf as much a part of the present-day living as free schooling. Is it golf which has put so many Scots in top executive posts all over the world? No, not altogether, But it could be said that golf - and the way Scots apply themselves to it - has been quite a factor. There may well be some pro- tests 'against ,the assertion at the beginning of this story that Scotland gave golf to the world. Experts trace the origin of the game back to the Netherlands and the Dutch word "Rolf," meaning a club.

It was the Scots who really developed the game. The date of its introduction from the continent seems ob- scure. But by 1457 the popu- larity of the game in Scotland had become so great as serious- ly to interfere with the more nationally important pursuit of archery. In fact, the Scottish Parlia- ment issued a decree that "fute- ball and golf be utterly cryit doun and nocht usit." Today the Scots are trying to protect golf from the inflation- ary pressures which are reduc- ing the number of golfers and embarrassing the golf clubs of England, Wales, and all of Ire- land. And, incidentally, it seems there may be another reason for safeguarding Scottish golf courses - namely, the dollar export drive. Two Aberdeen men are said to be negotiating with an Ame- rican firm of fishing -bait deal- ers to supply the firm with ten million worms. Scottish golf courses are rated ideal sources of such worms.
