Brett, The scent of a 'human, bear, seal Or sea lion in the waters upstream will stop.a school of salmon -- but not far long, Brett told scientists at the 10th Pacific Science Con- &ress Stir a cup of water with your finger, toss it inte a stream and salmon swimming there will stop, he said, Brett said they can pick up the scent-even when it is dil- uted to one part to 80,000,609 parts of water. . However, he said the salmon is determined to, reach its mating Grounds and will "swim right un- der a bear's legs, after a brief Stop to analyze the situation', Brett said young salmon are born with the -ability to, use the sky as a@ compass. They can find their way to wherever they want to go. "How they know where they are when they start is the ig ques- tion," -he said, TACOMA, Wash, -- Carole Y. Coe, 21, was driving to court to appear in her default divorce pro- ceedings, There was a police siren and She pulled to, the curb, "Your muffler's too foud", said ¢he officer, Then he asked for her @iriver's licence and found it had gust run out, The officer wrote a ticket for failing t» have a valid Hicence.

Two little ducks for 22, The prizes are big -- up to £200. But bingo kings look for the day when as many as 5,000 persons will crowd London's giant sports stadiums in the hope of winning up to £5,000 a card. As it stands today, many movie houses feeling the pinch of tele- vision have switched to bingo to keep going. Latest convert is Lon- don's largest movie theatre which can handle 3,300 bingo addicts at a sitting. An 'all-day bingo" session is operating at the Lyceum Dance Hall. Opening at 11:00 a.m.; it op- erates until nearly midnight in half-hour sessions, The craze broke early this year, when Britain relaxed its gambling laws to allow the public to play games for money which required | no, skill -- a qualification that open- ed the door for bingo. The impact of bingo has raised the problem of adjusting life to fit the game. Some sea shore hotels this sum- mer have had to switch meal times on rainy days to fit the bingo schedule while many straw- hat circuit theatres have boosted profits by breaking shows for a "bingo interlude". DROXFORD, England -- The town council passed a unanimous resolution asking a lecal woman to have her eight dogs "de-barked" or face proceedings under a noise abatement act, The council's demand that the woman's seven. miniature poodles. and one Kerry blue terrier be '"'de- barked'? came after several resi- dents in the area complained of the noise the animals made. Describing the council's action as a "diabolical" one, the owner said she would take the issue to 'court rather than submit her pets fo an operation which would re- move their vocal chords. HONOLULU -- Charies Lo, 18, dived from a seawall at Waikiki Beach to join a girl who was up to her neck in water. Minutes later the youth was tak- en from the water unconscious and 'paralyzed from the chest down. Police said he didn't know the girl was sitting down, SIRMIONE, Italy -- The sinking swan of Sirmione Castle has his keepers amazed, Castle attendants received the big white bird a week ago and dumped him in the castle moat. The swan almost drowned. Three other swans, already gracing the moat, looked stunned, -flustrated b Haileybury, Ont. | HOW TO CHOOSE YOUR FAMILY MONUMENT of Rock of Ages' new es ng fretice How To Choose.

Keepers hauled the terrified bird out by the neck and tried again, Once more the bird struggled, gasped, gurgled and got its head under the water. They had to face the incredible fact: their new swan couldn't swim. They finally found out that the swan's mother died a year ago when the baby. swan hatched. The litte bird was turned over to a brooding hen who took the role of foster mother. : She taught the little swan to eat and waddle. But she couldn't teach him to swim. PISA -- A young Italian carry- ing a small saw walked up to the leaning tower of Pisa recently. Police, who have been guarding the tower since an anonymous let- ter-writer threatened earlier this month to blow it up, moved in quickly to intercept him. A police constable asked the youth what he was doing. "I want to straighten it," he replied. The youth was sent to hospital for observation. WARSAW -- Want to get rid of your mother-in-law without really hurting her? A Polish magazine may have just the answer to your problem. It has started a column to tell its readers how. A reader wanted to know what to do about ma-in-law, who, with housing as scarce as it is here, often lives with young couples, This particular mother-in-law's vice was that she hung around whenever the young couple had guests. 3 ie "How can I tell her delicately that we would like to be alone," daughter-in-law wanted to know. The columnist advised against suggesting to "mother" that- she was tired and might like to sleep. Instead, it proposed, "'Next time' you have guests tell her you are going to talk about diesel engines in motor boats." The column is part of a nation- wide campaign to bring back pol- iteness to Poland. Time was the Poles. were so polite their incessant expressions of 'Thank you" and '"'Excuse me" were downright annoying. But this has disappeared in the hectic chase to get an apartment or a seat on a bus and in the tedium of waiting in line for hours for so simple a thing as a train ticket. EDMONTON -- A resident of Dawson City in the gold-rich Yukon Territories who picked up a $1 parking tag here August 8, has mailed his payment in a glass phial. : With the phial, Harry Ebert sent an explanatory note: "As I have no folding money or silver find en. closed the sum of $1 in good old Yukon gold." He added a cautionary "please don't spend this all in one place." Mayor Roper said the 'gold' would be tested. If it doesn't meet the bill, "We'll have to send out - a posse to get him."
