Cass Theatre to Show "The Teti Commandments" Ten years of planning, three years of research and prelim inary exploration and three years of writing preceeded the actual shooting of Cecil B. De Mille's "The Ten Command ments,'' due Sun., Mon., Tues., and Wed., Feb. 14-15-16-17 at the Cass Theatre. The painstaking research for the massive film, in which Chariton Heston portrays Mos ses and Yul Brynncr Pharaoh Rameses II, not only guided the writing of the huge script but was used by all sixty-four de partments of Paramount Pic tures in designing the enormous sets, the iOj.tiOJ props, wardrobe for two dozen stars and 25,000 extras, makeup and choreograp hy. Studied constantly were the King James and Dcuay Veisions of tne Iioiy Scriptures and "The Pentateuch and Haftorahs," ed ited by tne Chief Rabbi of the British Empire, but since Exo dus omits thirty years of Moses' lite, the Kora.i, the Midrash, "The Mishnah" and the works ot Philo, Josephus and Kuscbiu.s were scoured to iill in the gap without departing from the Bi ble stoiy. In addition, DeMille's chief researcher, Henry S. Nuerdnng er, and screen writers Aenas MacKcnzic, Jesse L. Lasky, Jr., Jack Gari.;s and Frederic M. Frank received invariable assis tance in Ri'.pplemtT.ting their knowledge of .Mouses, the man, from leading museum directors, librarians and eminent anti quity experts throughout tne world. A Classified Ad In The Journal . I 'just as little as 50 cents. THE PLATTSMOUTH, NEBRASKA, SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL Thursday, February 11, 1960 PAGE SEVEN Progress Made in Industrial Uses By I'earle F. Finisaii State Director of Agriculture Nebraska's program to find in dustrial uses for agricultural products took several signifi cant steps forward during the past week. The Nebraska Agrlcu 1 1 u r a 1 Products Research Fund Com mittee was notified that it will receive at least $200,000 in fed eral funds to supplement the eres a Toothsome Tale State of Nebraska, Department of Health Infected teeth are a hazard to good health. Dental health should be a part of our total health pro gram. We should understand the basic factors concerning dental health and diseases and apply these facts toward a healthy mouth. Contrary to advertising, there is no positive way to prevent tooth decay. There are millions of harmful and harmless bacter ia in the mouth. The harmful bacteria act on sugars and re fined carbohydrates to form acids. These acids dissolve the enamel and decay begins. People can make use of con trol factors to reduce dental car ies - decrease consumption of sweets, brush the teeth after eat ing, and have regular dental care. Rinse the mouth with water when it is impossible to brush after eating. Clear water is as effective as commercial mouthwashes. A solution of common salt - Y2 teaspoon to 2 glass of water - or baking soda - 4 teaspoonful to '2 glass of water - will help re move iced particles from the mouth and teeth. A toothbrush should have a small head, a flat surface, and firm bristles. The child's first teeth should have special care to Insure com plete chewing of food, contribute to facial development, and pre serve the space lor incoming per manent teeth. Frequent visits to the denist help to detect disease in its early stages and irregular ities in the growth of the teeth. Future misery and costs may be prevented by early repair. There is no substitute for periodical visits to the denist. Proper diet is essential for the growing child to insure den tal health throughout life. Child ren should be trained to substi tute milk, nuts, fresh fruit, and vegetables lor many 01 the sweets they otherwise consume. Over 95 per cent of Americans j are plagued by dental maladies, i Let's change this figure by the ; regular care of our teeth.

The federal funds come from the old Nebraska Rural Rehabi litation Corporation, which was organied during the depression to receive and administer Fed eral Emergency Relief Ad ministration. In a move to secure informa tion on two promising uses for corn, committee members, Vln ce Rossi ter of Ilartington and Maynard Jensen of Aurora, and Columbus businessman Ray mond Arndt travelled to Chic ago, Illinois where they were briefed on the use of corn coupl ed with petroleum to produce a whole new line of chemicals and on the work being done with high-amylose starch corns. They reported that during their visit to the Universal Oil Products Co., an international petroleum refining research or ganiation, they met and talked with Dr. Carl B. Linn, a native of Auburn, Nebraska, who is credited with discovery of the petroleum-corn derivative. Dr. Linn, a research chemist, who still has farming interests at Auburn, said he envisions a whole new line of uses for his product which could use large qantities of corn in an eco nomically feasible manufactur ing process. Dr. Linn said uses for the pro duct might be found in con structing roads and runways or for detergents, cement finisning materials, pharm aceuticals, plastics and adhesives. Research to develop market able products is all that remains to be done to develop a large market for corn in this area, he indicated. At American Maize Co. of Roby, Indiana, the committee members were briefed on the status of high-amylose starch corns. Clifford Hullinger, a research chemist, told the group that his company intends to raise 1,000 acres of 55 percent amylose seed corn this year in cooperation with the National Starch Com pany. Hullinger said that a large market already exists for tne starch from high-amylose corns and that one company had pur chased ail the high-amylose starch on the market last year. The starch is easily extracted in conventional starch process ing plants using existing equip ment, he said. There is a good possibility that Nebraska can help remove the see-corn bottleneck from the production of high-amylos corns in quantities, the committee was told. 1 1 FFA Members Judge in Duroc State Contest Eleven members of the Platts mouth Chapter of Future Farm ers of America took part in the Duroc breeders state judging contest at Fremont Feb. 8.
