Egg producers who had many of their eggs graded down last .summer because of thin, weak t gg shells will be glad to know somebody is trying to help them. USDA scientists, working on im provement of shell quality at the Beltsville station, say a hen's ability to lay eggs with good shells is inherited. Here's how they determine shell quality: An (Political Atlvt -rtisPiiiFiit Per or with- a thin, porous shell j dries out faster than one with j a thick, hard shell, so they check air-cell size after eggs have been incubated 2 weeks. The thin- j shelled eggs are removed and j the others allowed to hatch. Hatcherymen, following the lead of this research, could produce j quick improvement.

'Peru State Teachers College's B team kept a 2-0 lead over the V.FYVV. team here Wednes- day night throughout almost ! the entire game, and finally pushed over for a touchdown with four minutes left in the game. Final score was 9-0. Peru's two-point safety came on the second series of downs in the first quarter. Plattsmouth had held Peru deep in Peru ter- i ritory after the Tuck-off, and Peru.s punt on the eight-yard line. On a pitch-out from Haith. ! Todd was hit and driven back behind the goal line. The rest of the game was played all over the field, Platts mouth holding the invaders for and the local squad getting inside the enemy's 10-yard line twice. The only touchdown came when Hart took a pitchout from Samuelson and went four yards around the left end. Ludwig kicked the extra point. The vet's team members made ; several crowd-thrilling plays, and defensive and offensive teams both turned jn an outr standing evening's work. Bob Norton intercepted a pass on his own two-yard line and shook free to get to Peru's 22., Another pass was intercepted by Johnson, who ran from his own five to midfield. The longest gain of the night was on a Plattsmouth pass Play, Haith to Rieki, who went from his own 30 to Peru's 11. Much of Plattsmouth trouble was on blocked punts, Peru knocking" down three of them. The colorful evening included the half-time presentation by the V. F. W. of a citizenship award to Peru coach Al Wheel er. The veteran coach was cited for the outstanding influence he has shown on his young ath letes during the years he has been at Peru. Don Cotner played "To the Colors" at the beginning of the game, while the flag was being raised. Officials for the game, all Peru seniors, were Eckman, Nance, and Allen. After ' the game both teams wrere served a meal at the V. F. W. club rooms, the meal prepa edn aserievddr the meal prepared and served by the Auxiliary. Daie Bowman, speaking 'for the V. F.

We were perilously close to the brink. We are still in danger. The swaddling clothes cf a pa ternalistic, Socialistic govern ment can be quickly changed in to the strait jacket of a dic tatorship. Americans were cre ated to be free and the masters . . . not the servants of Govern ment. Preserving freedom is the job of all Americans.

The quail are very plentiful and good shooting should be the general rule. The long season, Oct. 30-Nov. 25 should .extend into the end of the harvest season and the pre dominately heavy cover should become less of a problem as the season progresses. Hunting with dogs will be almost mandatory the early part of the season, but this is usually the case with email. Hunter success on pheasants has been light, as was expected. A low pheasant population is part of the reason for the low harvest of the ring-necks. Prob ably 'the small amount of har vested grain, both sorgum and corn, has contributed as great a share to the low bags. Hunters gunning far quail this coming Saturday should keep in mind the daily hunt ing hours for quail are from one-half hour before sunrise to one hour before sunset. Accord in? to Gpme Commission tech nicians this gives the birds time to covey up fcr the night, before the sun goes down. The importance of asking per mission of the landowner cannot be stressed too much, according to game commission officials. Once again the hunters can be commended but there are al ways a few that cause local re sentment against all hunters. The quail season is open in the following counties: Adams, Buffalo. Butler. Cass. Clay, Dawson, Douglas, Fillmore, Franklin, Frontier, Furnas, Gage, Gosper, Hall. Hamilton. I Harlan. Kayes, Hitchcock. Kow j ard, Jefferson, Johnson, Kear ney, Lancaster, Lincoln.

Listed here are hours of sun rise and sunset, with hunters re minded that daily hunting hours In summing up my campaign for re - election I wish at this time to discuss some of the campaign issues and statements: 1. Two months ago I sent each of you a copy of my record and platform while serving as your sheriff. 'To date there has been no public challenge of this published record, nor has there been any public criticism of our activities. 1 ! : . 2. My platform pledges and promises are my own and I stand back of them and my record one hundred Percent. 3. - Economically, I feel we have done especially well with your entrusted tax dollars. In view of the fact that we installed an up to date office to meet your needs, we still were able to operate on much less money than adjoining couties of equal size. Also solely thru our ef forts we have returned each dollar spent four - fold. 4. Thru your co-operation and our efforts we have made Cass County a more safe and decent place to live and raise our families. We only have to read our daily papers to know how fortunate we are in this regard. x 5. I feel that there is no substitute for experience and with 15 years of law enforcement experience and service back of me I feel that I am capable to continue serving you and your family in this world of today. Above all, my fellow voters, you know, and my re cord reflects that we have always stood for good, clean honest, and efficient government. I have not made any questionableromises or charges, or attempted to mis lead you by use of rumors or insinuations. Persons who resort to such tactics or carry on an evasive campaign do so for one of the following two reasons: a. An attempt to confuse you the voters of thre main issues and to distract your attention. b. An attempt to cover up their lack of qualifica tions and inability to offer a program or a more pro gressive program than the one presently in'effect. In closing, I wish to call to your attention that your Sheriff is one of your most important insurance policies." His ability 'to deliver and perform can be judged solely on his education, experience, and record in law enforce ment work. iE-ELESTlON Your Support Appreciated iMwKui ih1iiiIw.Ji lflliinrfhNiTli jftf lhilimHii AiiubN i i- nlmfMiM -r-m-m A A 1
