Restrictive
Pact Binds
In Land Deal
By the Atlanta Bar Association
and the Lawyers Club of Atlanta
Paul Purchaser bought a motel
•om Mr. and Mrs. Landowner, who
ad built the motel on land they
wned adjoining a much larger tract
n which they lived. The Land
wners agreed not to use their reain
lg land for competitive motel purp¬
oses.
Because of their promise the Land
wners did not consider operating a
ompetitive motel, but they later
instructed such a motel on their re¬
taining land and leased it to their
aughter, who then began operating
. Purchaser thought this a violation
f the restriction for his benefit just
ie same as if the Landowners them

CURE SEEN FOR 50%
OF CANCER VICTIMS
CHICAGO—(UPI)—An official
the American Cancer Society has
ported that more than 800,000 p<
sons in the U. S. ’have been cured
the disease and that present
may cure one of every two
victims.
Mefford F. Runyon, New York, also
left the door open for a society-spon¬
sored test of the controversial cancer
drug krebiozen provided the testing
meets “the recognized standards of
the scientific executive community.” vice-president of
the Runyon, organization, said yester¬
cancer
day that in addition in America to 800,000 another sur¬
vivors of cancer
900,000 persons who have received
treatment were undergoing five-years’
observation to determine if the cure
has taken.
His prediction that 50 per cent suc¬
cess was possible hinged on the af¬
flicted person’s making full and early
use of existing modem facilities.
"It is up to the individual,” Runyon
said. “His life is in his own hands
and the first doctor who sees him.” 0
Runyon said the present encourag¬
ing picture contrasted sharply with
earlier years: In 1913, when only one
in 10 persons was cured, 1930, one in
five, and today’s one in three.
Referring to the krebiozen contro¬
versy, Runyon said the society would
like to see it settled “and the drug
made available to doctors and the
public if it is of value.”

UNDER FREEDOM’S SKIES I
DEMAND GOOD TEACHERS
State School Supt. Claude Purcell
concedes that teacher training in
Georgia is “not perfect” and suggests
it is up to the Board of Regents to
beef up such training in University
System colleges.
His remarks were the most profit¬
able to emerge Monday when State
Board of Education officials discussed
the articles in which The Journal’s
Harold Davis explored deficiencies in
teacher education.
Of course it is notable that Mr.
Purcell did not decry Mr. Davis for
discussing Board what some members of the
of Education plainly consider
is a taboo subject.
In fact, he agreed with one of Mr.
Davis’ central findings. He did so
when he said that one ot'the' prob¬
lems the teacher program faces is
lack of proper attention by the Uni¬
versity System.
Mr. Davis dealt mainly with one
unit of the University System—the
University findings of Georgia at Athens. His
regarding the College of Edu¬
cation there were pretty thought-pro¬
voking.
He found facts to back up his
charge that the College of Education
graduates any student who, as he put
it, “stays alive and keeps up his regis¬
tration.”
So Mr. Purcell properly calls upon
the Board of Regents to re-examine
teacher training in the University
System. But is he right to imply that
the full responsibility for shortcom¬
ings in teacher training lies with the
schools of education ?
Not quite/Or at least he might ask
himself _ whether certain paper stand¬
ards fixed by the State Department
of Education — notably through the
Minimum Foundation Program — in¬
fluence the quality of teacher train¬
ing, or the lack of it.
If the schools of education turn out
ill-trained teachers and the Depart¬
ment of Education accepts such teach¬
ers for certification, then surely it
may be argued the school department
encourages the faults of the teacher
training program. — Editorial in the
Atlanta Journal.
CITES COMMUNITY OBLIGA TION
TO BACK LOCAL NEWSPAPER
Carl Zielke, manager of the Wis¬
consin Press Association, told an
audience of businessmen and civic
leaders that they have an obligation
to support their local newspaper in
every way possible.
In a Newspaper Week address in
Kiel, weekly Wis., Zielke said publishing a
newspaper is a tough venture.
“There was a time when Wisconsin
had more than 600 weekly newspapers.
Today we have but 285,” he said.
“A newspaper is a business ven¬
ture and before the newspaper can
succeed and remain in business, it
must make a profit. It, too, like every
business up and down main street,
has a payroll which must be met each
week otherwise it will fold up and go
the way of some 300 newspapers in
the last 50 years.”
Many communities in Wisconsin, he
said, are without newspapers because
the businessmen of the community
failed to appreciate that newspaper.
“You must support your local news¬
paper if you want a good newspaper.
“If it is a good newspaper it de¬
serves your support.”
Zielke also stressed the obligation
of a publisher to his community in his
exercise of “the freedom to write as
he pleases” and in protecting the peo¬
ple’s right to know. He has the obli¬
gation of keeping the citizens of the
community informed as to govern¬
mental activity at the local level and
in other areas. He has the further
obligation, said Zielke, of reporting
to his readers objectively and of ex¬
pressing any opinions he may have in
the editorial columns of his news¬
paper.—The National Publisher,

town. That’s a job for ever y citi

AGREED, MADAM, LADY’S LEGS
NO CLUE TO HER SOUL—
OR COOKING
A lady in San Francisco wants us
to discuss modem fashions and ladies’
legs. It is her contention that (1) tbe
new knee-length skirts neither flatter
a woman nor present her legs in their
best aspect, and (2) that a lady’s legs
are not much indication of her basic
character and certainly no clue to the
depths of her soul.
She says, “When men enter a res¬
taurant, do they get down under all
the tables and look at legs before
looking at faces? Do they choose the
1 legs they like best, and woo them,
and say pretty things to them and
marry tlwm without ever considering
the woman herself ?”
Unhappily, in some instances the
answer must be yes. There are, in¬
deed, such men. We have personally
known a few. They will enter a place
of public refreshment or divertisse¬
ment, lift up the table cloth, and then
bark and utter wolf cries, and whistle
and snap their fingers and cry out
loudly, “Hey, unhappily, Jack!”
Also, this does evoke a
favorable response in a certain type
of woman. This type, however, invari¬
ably turns out to be a poor cook. And
sooner or later her husband becomes
a bitter, disillusioned, dyspeptic man.
It’s nice to have a pair of pretty legs
around the house, but an endless suc¬
cession of bum meals soon cancels
them out.
Carstairs, the noted behaviorist
psychologist, was the first to note
this. It was his theory that women
who have pretty legs don’t look as
well as women less-favored because
they don’t have to. He studied ladies’
legs longer than any other man liv¬
ing, until his wife made him change
his specialty. He is now glumly study¬
ing tone-perception in mice, and his
students say sadly that all the old
fire has gone out of the master.
Our San Francisco correspondent
goes on to say that the models at the
Paris fashion showings this year were
“the tallest the world has ever seen
because the new short skirt is only
becoming to the tall woman.” Eighty
per cent of American women, she said,
are inches, relatively short, about 5 foot 5
and “they look awful in short
skirts.”
Laurent, the Dior designer who re¬
fused to go along with the short skirt
movement, “is on his way to the hour¬
his glass figure,” she says, and lengthened
skirts “because a short skirt with
an hour-glass figure would make a
woman look as if she were just wear¬
ing a ruffle below the waist.”
Our California reader concludes on
a poetic note. “Does a woman’s face
he mean nothing to the modem man ? Is
only interested in the configuration
of the calf muscle ? Is it immaterial
to him that a woman’s eyes may be
hard and calculating, her mouth grim
and aggressive, her voice strident and
her waist thick? Is it of no conse¬
quence to him that a woman’s smile
is sweet and sincere?”
The lady echoes our own sentiments
pretty thing. closely. We would only add one
Much more important than
pretty legs is this: does a woman
laugh readily and does she laugh in
the right places? Them kind is the
real jewels.—Douglass Welch in the
Baltimore American.
