EARTH SHAKING LECTURES
LOLS ANGELES.— (AP) —Dr.
Thomas Clements, professor of
geology at the University of Sou
thern California, is getting a lit
tle hesitant about lecturing on
earthquakes.
In 1933 he discussed earth tre
mors before a group in Les An
geles. Within & week the disas
trous Long Beach quake occurred.
Recently he addressed a Rotary
Club in Bakersfield on the same
subject. A few hours later a tem
blor damaged almost 200 oil wells
in Wilmington.
General Douglas MacArthur has
received more than 400,000 lstters
from Japanese during the Occu
pation.
Eva Harris were the hostesses at
a lovely tea for Miss Turner. The
party was given on December 19
j-at the home of Biis. Czines in Bl
berton. The decorations and re
freshments carried out the holiday
motif. .
Bridge Party
Miss Betty Turner was the hon
oree at a bridge party given by‘
Miss Nancy Borzynski at her home
in Elberton on Thursday after
noon.
Miscellaneous Shower
The friends and relatives of
Miss Turner honored her at a mis-~
cellaneous shower at the home of
Mrs. Steve Smith in Comer.
After an enjoyable contest the
honoree followed directions which
led her to the treasure chest filled
with beautiful and useful gifts.
Luncheon Monday
On Monday Mrs. L. V. Rice,
mother of the groom-elect enter
tained the bridal party at a beauti
ful seated luncheon given at her
attractive home in Elberton. She
was assisted by her daughters,
Mrs. Frank Maxwell and Mrs. Lon

of gravitation.”
It is a mathematical description
of the mystery of gravity —the
common force that keeps our feet
on the floor and rules the move
ments of the stars.
If it can be proved, it will be
come a ‘“universal law” and, in
the view of other scientists, will
stand as the highest scientific
achievement of all time. .
It would explain every physical
motion in the universe, from the
inside of an an atom to the enorm
ous galaxies of outer space.
Crown Life Work
It would crown with success the
life work of Einstein, who has
spent the last half of his 70 years
looking for the answer to this ulti
mate problem, known to science
as the “unified field theory.”
It was revealed to the world‘
here yesterday on 20 mimeo
graphed pages—a mixture of type~
written words and squiggly math
ematical symbols that even scien
tists hesitated to interpret. It was
the English tranclation of Ein
stein’s original German.
Einstein describes it as an ex
tension of his relativity theory,
and was guick to point out that
he has “not yet found a practical
way to confront the results of the
theory with experimental evi
dence”—or in short, to prove it.
When he published the “general
theory of relativity” in 1915, Ein
stein suggested several actual tests
that could be made to prove his
ideas—and which actually did
prove them in 1921. But this new
theory is apparently so abstract
that Einstein could not think of a
physical test for it.
Einstein himself was not present
at the public announcement. The
Princeton University Press pre
sented the paper. It is publishing
it February as an added chapter in
Einstein’s own book, “The Mean
ing of Relativity.” Einstein is
now Professor of Mathematics at
the Institute for Advanced Study
at Princeton, a non-university
group for fundamental research.
Atheniaon Takes
Part In ltalian
Christmas Party
Cranford H. Couch, commis
saryman, second class, USN, of
1393 Boulevard, Athens, who is
serving aboard the submarine USS
Tigrone in the Mediterranean,
may have this Christmas changed
the conception many Italian chil
dren have of Santa Claus.
In the future, they will probably
envision Santa as an American
sailor aboard a warship, instead
of the proverbial sleigh. The rea
son is that plans were made for
the crew of the Tigrone to share
their Christmas with a group of
underprivileged children from Na
ples, Italy., Their holiday enter
tainment consisted of a turkey
dinner, a program of carols and
movie cartoons reflecting the
Christmas spirit, capped by a visit
from Canta with gifts. Each child
also received candy and nuts and
was taken on a conducted tour of
the ship. L apE G s

Science Squeezes Fat
Out Of Fattest Pigs
~. BY DAVID M. MASON
AP Newsfeatures
ST. PAUL, Minn.—Made-to-or=-
der hogs have their snouts firmly
implanted in the corn belt. They
go by the cryptic names of Minne
sota No. 1 and No. 2.
If a big-boned, over-fat ham
peeves you; if you have trouble‘
finding the lean center of a pork‘
chop, or if you get bacon that‘
should have been tossed into the
lard kettle, you have not encoun
tered the new breeds.
Dr. L. M. Winters, University
of Minnesota, animal husbandman
who developed the new breeds, set
his goal to raise a pig which could
produce higher qualily meat fas
ter and cheaper.
The No. 1 traces its ancestry to
the Danish Landrace and the Eng
lish Tamworth varieties of hog:
the No. 2 to the Yourkshire and
Poland China.
The new breeds were first re
leased to the public Sept. 17-18,
1948. Within a year there were 501 1
registered No. 1 herd owners and’
58 No. 2 herd owners. There were
9,751 No. I’s and 856 No. 2's on
the books, but only a small part
of any hog breed is registered.
Some swine growers raise pure
bred No. I’s and No. 2’s and others
cross them with older breeds.
The new line offers plenty of
consumer appeal: less-fat, small
erboned hams; pork chops with a
bigger center and bacon with lean
which more nearly outstrips the
fat.
For the swine growers’ opinion,
several were interviewed by The
Associated Press. Generally they
expressed approval of the new
lines.
Pork Production
Claude H. Hormel, manager of
the P. D. McMiiian Land Co., Hol=
landale, Minn,, said ‘our opinion
is that No. I’s and in somewhat
lesser degree No. 2’s have heen
one of the more important recent
contributions aiding swine produ
cers of the Middle West toward
more economical and profitable
pork production.”
Gerald Frankl, Irvington, Yowa,
says he crossed Duroc females
with No. 1 males and his litters
were increased from a previous
eight or nine to eleven or twelve.
“Much to my amazement, these
litters were very sirong, healthy
and vigorous and seemed io have
everything in the line of strength
and liveliness that my previous
‘smaller litters had.”
Frankl then crossed the Duroc-
No. 1 pig with the No. 2. The pigs
from this cross were larger and
‘gained weight very rapidly, he
' said.
\ Another swine raiser, Leo Frek
ing, Heron Lake, Mich., said his
'No. I’'s and No. 2's “met with al
most unanimous approval of per
formance by commercial swine
producers and breeders from more
than 20 states and Canada.” As an
example, Freking said, 10 No. 1
'sows gave birth to 99 pigs and
raised 79 to breeding age. One lit
ter — instead of being a “ton lit
ter” in six months — weighed 2,-
017 pounds in five months. ;
University of Miunnesota hog
men and growers point out that
hogs are now bought by packing
houses chiefly on a weight basis.
Hogs of the same weight bring
about the same price, regardless
of fat or carcass waste,
The university, in cooperation
with the Department of Agricul
ture and the George A. Hormel
Co., Austin, Minn., has for the
past three years been developing
a new hog marketing system.

Athens l
(Continued from Page One)
injury to two persons. ‘
The first accident occurred in
Winder late friday when two cars
collided at an intersection. None
was injured and no charges were
made. -
Saturday the trcopers investi
gated an accident five miles south
of Commerce where two autos had
collided. One car was driven by
William Floyd, of Danielsville,
and the other by Walter Crawford,
of Athens. Floyd was charged
with failing to grant the proper
right of way.
No accidents were reported on
Christmas day, but five collisions
kept troopers busy yesterday and
last night.
3-Car Collision
The troopers were called yester=
day morning to a 3-car collision
near Watkinsville., One car driven
by James E. Brown, of Crawford,
went out of control and smashed
into two other vehicles. One car
was driven by Mack Weaver, of
Kenassville, Fla., and the other by
Dorsey L. Smith, of Athens. None
was injured. Brown was charged
with speeding and reckless driv
ing.
At 4 a. m. yesterday two cars
coilided near Commerce with two
persons being injured. One vehi
cle was driven by Webster Comp
ton, Atlanta, and the other by
Carl Hardigree, of Hartwell. Mrs.
Hardigree suffered face lacera
tions and her three-year old son,
Foster, suffered a broken leg. Both
the injured were taken to a Com
merce hospital.
Troopers charged Compton with
driving under the influence of al
cohol. ? N
Last night at 7:30 the troopers
reported that a car driven by
Howard Haggard, Rt. 4 Commerce,
overturned East of Commerce
when he tried to avoid hitting a
number of cows crossing the high~
way. He was not injured.
The last accident the troopers
investigated was last night at the
wooden bridge on the Macon high
way just outside of Athens. A
car driven by Mrs. Sara Smith
Scheider, of Fairfax, Va., went out
of control on the bridge and
crashed into the railing. She was
not injured. i
Fire Calls
The Athens fire department was
kept quite busy during the holi=
days. :
l They answered four calls on
Saturday, one in the county, where
a house was afiré. The home,
!owned by Robert Coile, suffered
slight damage. The three other
calls were for grass fires, one on
Henderson extension, one on Sun
set and Gloria and one on First
street. The second fire was caused
by firecrackers.
On Christmas day the firemen
made one run, this time to 1297
South Milledge where a gas leak
was blazing. No damage was in
curred. They also made one run
yesterday. They were called to
218 Morton Ave. at 9:05 p. m.

Sunday, but there were no flights
yesterday or today. The flight
’ scheduled to arrive here late today,
- will depend on a break in the
