' : FARMERS UBGEB TO HANDLE CORN PICKERS WITH CARE Corn pickers can "pick off" a farmer's hand or arm ®a8 easily as an ear of corn, a farm safety expert said this week. Harry M-, Pontious, director of safety for the Farm Bureau Insurance Cos.. said corn pickers are near the top in the list of hazardous farm machinery. They should be handled, he warned, with extreme caution. Illinois is one of the nation's leading corn-producing states. Pontious said it is probable that, on the basis of available figures, there are at least 1,000 corn picker accidents every year. Also, he said they were serious accidents; loss of time in many instances runs into periods of weeks or even months. Nearly 400,000 mechanical corn pickers will be in operation this year in the corn belt. Most of the accidents, Pontious explained, are caused by clogging. Corn pickers are equipped with high speed" "snapping" rollers which seize the corn and pull it in for processing. The trouble comes when the waste is not discharged. Farmers either try to clear it by hand or with a stick, and the snappers suddenly whirl again and pull them in. Even clearing them with a stick, Pontious said, is dangerous. The only safe way is to turn the machine completely off, a O re-start it again after it has been cleared. ' Ptotnerg Celebrate Sitk Anniversary It was a happy occasion last Saturday for Mr. and Mrs. Louis Plotner when they celebrated their twenty-fifth wedding anniversary surrounded by tr group of their friends. Beat McCalloni Lake The Green and Gold baseball team beat a McChllom Lake team Saturday 16-15. Those participating in the game from here were Bob Biggers, Wayne Tronsen, Lynn Cheney, Chuck. Majercik, Peter Bastien, Bob Cormier, JAhn Cecich, Arthur Franssen* Willy Wright, and D. Hester. The Wonder Lake teams--in three age groups-- would like to secure dates with other teama.

She was Mrs. Thorine Ryder, 16, of rural Spring Grove. She was swimming alone when the accident occurred. As she went beneath the bridge, she ran afoul of the set-line, and sank from sight a few moments later before rescuers could reach the scene. The body was recovered within a short time but efforts to revive the young bride proved futile. | Ask The Man Who Tried One. 'These Ads, Really Bring Results. New Classified Ads Appear.

SCIENCE MUSEUM RE-OPENS ATOMIC ENERGY EXHIBIT The Museum of Science and Industry re-opened its atomic energy exhibit to the public Monday, July 16, the sixth anniversary of the first successful atomic bomb explosion (1945) at Los Alamos. Included in the exhibit is a sample of fused sand taken from the New Mexican desert which is still radioactive, Available only to special student groups during the past two years, the exhibit, originally prepared by the Argonne National Laboratory of Chicago, is now on general exhibition in the Museum's main floor physics section. Several new units have been added to make a basic presentation of the principles for the layman. In one case visitors will see a block of pure metallic uranium. Slightly larger than a building brick and weighing fifty-four pounds, visitors may compare the Weight of this uranium block with a similar si^ed piece of stainless steel. A radiation detector will signal the intensity and range of the radiations pouring out of this uranium block while an electronic interpolator (or counting device) Will record the number of radiatiohs which vialtoN can aee^M light pipe on the laihfnttul acteeh of a cathode-ray osUlloacfMt- Tit? counter, known as a r»r £ords each sixty-tour radiitiolis jas one unit and la jcapabli K counting more than 70,000 sepa r a t e r a d i a t i o n i m p u l e e s per minute. , Another exhibit is the ,r»lav«', a mechanical hands device employ^ ed in atomic research laboratories to handle radio-active 'materials. The operator, standing behind a protective wall, can perform delicate operations by taenia of the slave. At the Museum, demonstrators will show its operations without employing actual radioactive materials. Other units in the exhibit sist of a hodoscope, an instrument for viewing the paths Of cosmic rays and a Wilson "clottd chamber", a device which tnafc^a atomic disintegration visible. Invented by C. T. R. Wilson if England in 1911, the Chamber has been one of the most effective means of observing the behAVtor of individual charged atomic or nuclear particles. l*eper ' *A' forester in Pierre, fc. 5b., awarded a Bed dross Certificate at Merit for applying the proper first •id to an accidental wound tin ' head, thus saving* his own Mfe.
