George Kendall caught up with
aarilyn Sutworth at a fruit mar
.t one block from the hotel. In
\.cperation, he grabbed her arm.
The next think that happened
came so fast George could not tell
oxactly what really took place. He
<uddenly felt himself plummeting
ver her head and crashing into
4 display of tomatoes.
By the time George had ex
iracted himself from the resulting
catsup, Marilyn was at his side.
«you poor darling! Are you
hurt?”
“No,® said George, *just mes-

“She turned, hailed a taxi and

At the hotel George sent hig suit

“An actident,” said George. “My

oking none the worse for it. “The

“well, I didn’t do any better,”
(icorge said despairingly. He told
his secretary what had happened.
“That makes sense,” said Verna.
“«Marilyn went back to Max, s 6

I'm out of luck. Old Man Sut

me, a mass suicide would be very

thoughts. If he were a quitter, this
would be the time to quit. But

WASHINGTON, June 14—(AP).

Navy scientists have discovered
tbat alcohol—like in bourbon—
has a mysterious power to lessen
t kelihood of death from radia
tion similar to that of atom bomb
Ve
These scientists, however, were
working with mice in the Naval
Radiological Defense Laboratory
a' San Francisco—which makes a
( ference.
Mice Survived
Fighty-four per cent of mice
tht got a heavy injection of alco
hol survived after they later were
exnosed to medium doses of rays.
Another group of mice got no
alcohol but the same amount of
rav exposure—and every one of
th~m died.
The Navy Scientists, after other
exveriments which turned out
about the same way, said there
seems to be some definite relation
ship between the amount of alco
hol and the survival rate of mice.
One Catch
But there is a catch. A Navy of
ficer cays mice handle their li
quor, or rather alcohol, different
ly than man. They can survive a
phenomenal dose of alcohol, size
considered.
If a man drank as much alco
hol as the mice received, in pro
portion {o size, the man would
have to take around three-fifths of
i sallon of average whisky, the.
itticer estimated.
Some scientists have estimated
I -man’s liquor capacity—ls 4
pound man, at sea level, on a cool

If that's true, three-fifths of

When he thought of Marilyn and
her mischievous smile, he believed
he did. When he thought of Sut
worth for a father-in-law, he
wasn’t so sure.
“Well, 'm not giving up yet.
There must be something I can
do.”
“There is,” said Verna, “but you
cdn’t do it.”
“You've convinced yourself
you're in love with Marilyn,
George,” said Verna. “Don’t ask
me how you figured it out, but you
did. You're not in love—you just
want to win the bonus. Believe
me, it isn’t worth it.”
George knew that Verna was
speaking from the heart, not from
the mind. What was there that
didn’'t make him as good a man
as Max Arno, excepting that per
haps Max was in better physical
condition, weighed more and
could lick George?
“I can. And I will. 'm in love.”
“Okay, George,” Verna said.
“There’s one thing that a working
girl learns. Let the boss have his
way, even when he’s wrong.
What's the plan?”
For Verna to give up so easily,
made George feel sad. He had felt
so long that Verna was in love
with him, that he didn’t like to
see her surrender.
But George had the glimmer
ings of an idea. “That carnival’s
tonight, isn’t it?”
“Yes, Max said something about
a charity show. He's performing
in it or something.”
“They’ll have animals, won't
they?”
Verna nodded. “They wusually
do. What are you cooking up?”
“Custard’s Last Stand,” he said.
“Listen, do you think you can
find someone who will rent us a
truck tonight?”
“If you can have cows deliv
ered to your hotel, then I guess I
ought to be able to rent a truck.
What gives?”
“Elopement,” said George. “Get
that truck. Bring the driver up
here and we’ll make our plans.”
Verna returned shortly after
George’s clothes were delivered
from the cleaners. He was just
straightening his tie as Verna and
the truck driver appeared.
The driver, Tom Faber, was a
young fellow, lean, nice looking
and sandy haired. His father had
a produce Tarm at the edge of
town. George instructed him to
have his truck back of the animal
cages soon after dark. He issued
other instructions to Verna, gave
her some money, kissed her light
ly on the cheek, and sent her and
the truck driver away. .
“You're a heck of a detective,
George Kendall,” she said, as she
left.
George spent the rest of the aft
ernoon checking weather reports
and studying a manual on judo. At
6 o’clock he was ready to go forth.
But a call from the desk clerk
informed him that Albert P. Sut

| BIRTHDAY S ALUT E—Queen Elizabeth I salutes the
. colors of one of the household regiments as it passes the saluting
! base at Buckingham Palace, London, following the Trooping the
Colol' ceremony on her first official birthday as Queen, :
B % "Lil Terror" Or "Sugar”; °
€, Terminology Depends On View
In the park when he wasn’t
slapping and kicking other chil
dren, he was snatching their toys.
Their mothers called him “The
Terrar,” but his own mother
called him “Sugar.”
She would address him by this
name while he stood, furious and
resistant, bis fingers clenched on
the handlebars of somebody else’s
tricycle. As she stooped over him,
the rankled mothers on the park
benches would watch her with
cold, hostile eyes, stilling their
chatter so as to leave space for
her appeal to be heard.
“Sugar,” she would say too
brightly to the four-year-old child,
“don’t you remember mummy’s
telling you that we must never
take other people’s possessions
without asking their permission?
No will you ask Billy politely if
you can borrow his tricycle . ..
He would kick at her. In the
end, it would be Billy’s mother,
flushed and contemptuous, who
would untwist the spoiled child’s
fingers from the handlebars, and
with eyes carefully averted from
his helpless mother, move her own
son away.
At dusk, moving homeward, the
park mothers would lift signifi
cant eyebrows at each other as the
sound of her cajoling voice pur
sued them. “But if we don’t go
home, Sugar darling, daddy won't
have any dinner. You wouldn’t
want mummy to let daddy starve,
would you? No, of course you
wouldn’t . ~ .” / E
Now if you think that Sugar’s
mother enjoyed being helpless and
humiliated, you are greatly mis
taken. She hated it. Yet if you said
to her, “Madam, you are in trouble
because of your fear of using phy
sical forces to protect your child
from himself,” she would be out
raged. In a superior voice, Sugar’s
mother would say to you. “I de
spise physical force. I prefer to
reason with my child.”
Youngsters Are Grateful
For Force
Sugar’s mother has to talk like
this because she has built her life
on contempt for force or physical
action.
She discovered that she felt con
tempt for physical force one day
when she was seven. She had been
THE BANNER-HFERALD, * THENS, GEORGIA
slapped unjustly and when she
protested was slapped again.
With the taste of blood in her
mouth, Sugar’s mother saw there
had to be some way to live with
a parent who used physical force
long after it should have been dis
placed by another kind of control.
She decided to ‘“despise” the use
of it. Thereafter, instead of pro
testing or crying when she was
slapped or spanked, Sugar’s moth
er took refuge in feeling superior
to slaps and spanks,
She beeame expert in the use of
cajoling, pleading words to solve
her problems. And nobody, until
Sugar, ever caught on to her. Be
fore he was three he knew that
his mother’s dependence upon
words was fear of phiysical action.
Just exactly as his grandmother
had used her child’s terror of force
to humiliate her, now Sugar used
that fear to humiliate his mother,
Says that reliable expert, Dr.
Benjamin Spock: “When your
child is young, rely most heavily
on physically removing him from
dangerous or forbidden situations
by distracting him to something
interesting gand harmless. He
counts on you to keep him out of
danger.”
Danger to children is not lim
ited to mad dogs, gas jets, speed
ing cars or other physical hazards.
They can be endangered by ex
posure to the sustained dislike that
moved the park mothers to call a
four-year-boy “The Terror.”
Children are grateful for force,
firmly and lovingly applied to im
pulses they cannot control. If we
cannot give them this control, we
should want to know why. Per
haps our passion for “reasoning”
with young creatures not yet
equipped to respond to reason may
not be affection for them at all—
but dread of what they may do to
us if we try to restrain them. |
