SUMMER HAZARDS Your ability to distinguish sunstroke from heat exhaustion may mean the difference between life and death. Both summer hazards result when the body absorbs more heat than it is able to get rid of, but while heat exhaustion is seldom fatal, sunstroke can kill. Sunstroke -- caused by overexposure to hot sun--not only requires immediate first aid measures to cool the victim, but also calls for emergency medical treatment. Heat exhaustion -- which can result from overexertion in oppresive heat even on a cloudy day -- is usually rapidly overcome with no after effects by simple replacement of the victim's water and salt loss. If you're a witness to sunstroke, you'd better recognize it, know what to do and act quickly even before the doctor arrives. A sunstroke victim will probably lose consciousness. His breathing will be labored. His skin will be flushed, dry very hot and he'll have a high temperature. If the patient's temperature is extremely high (above 105 degrees) for a long period of time, he may suffer damage to his brain, liver or kidneys. It is vital that a physician be called immediately, but in the meantime it is important to reduce the victim's body temperature as fast as possible. Put the patient in a tub of cold water or wrap him in cold, wet sheets. When the body temperature has been lowered to around 100 degrees, put the patient to bed and keep him wrapped in the wet sheets. If he is able to swallow, give him a salt tablet and a lot of liquids. However, don't give him an alcoholic beverage ! Though less serious than sunstroke, heat exhaustion is an agonizingly distressing condition. Prolonged heat and humidity -- often in combination with over-exertion -- cause the victim to perspire profusely. The temperature of a heat exhaustion victim probably won't get above 101 degrees and his skin will be cold and clammy. There may be vomiting, his breathing will be shallow and he may suffer muscle cramps. Remove the heat exhaustion victim to a cool and comfortable spot, loosen his clothes and apply cool, moist cloths to his forehead. If the patient is able to swallow, give him a salt tablet and hot tea or coffee . . . that's right HOT! To guard against hot weather hazards, don't overexpose yourself to the sun, don't wear heavy or tight clothing, don't overeat or overindulge in alcohol, don't go bare-heaaed in the sun and don't overexert yourself.

KENNEDY, PRESIDENT" by Hugh Sidey Published just three" months before President Kennedy's assassination, Mr. Sidey's narrative was to be the beginning of; the story. Now, tragically, it covers in time the entire span of John F. Kennedy, President. Hugh Sidey reported the activities of the United States for TIME from the moment of their first meeting in a Senate elevator in 1958 until Nov. 22, 1963. With a reporter's keen eye for detail, and a personal affection he has made no attempt to conceal, Mr. Sidey relates the events and emotions of the three White House years. Here you will find the President wrestling in the early hours of the morning with what was to become the Bay of Pigs fiasco; the hopeful trip to Vienna and the shocking confrontation with Khrushchev; the conferences with de Gaulle; the crisis in Mississippi; the decision to face Armageddon over Cuba; the ' vindication in the November, 1962, elections; and in 1963, the detente with Russia and the beginning of a Communist rollback; and the call to the nation last summer for action on the moral crisis of segregation, and on the practical crisis of taxes. Mr. Sidey's narrative closes with an account of that terrible Novemeber weekend, first in Dallas and then in Washington. His book adds rare insights and new dimensions to the understanding of John F. Kennedy and his government. "THE SPY WHO CAME IN FROM THE COLD" by John Le Carre This brilliant novel adds John leCarre's name to the microscopically small list of really great writers of espionage fiction. In truth, it does a great deal more. It is the spy novel to end all spy novels. It dispatches the spun-sflgar secret agents of recent fame back to their comic-opera Graustarks forever. Its central figurge, Leamas, whose mission is to trap the top spy of East Berlin, is a creation of astonishing reality and authenticity. The plot he sets in motion, and later becomes the principal victime of, is a thing of magnificent complexity -- also of farreaching implications. •< For the tension within Leamas is strikingly contemporary. It is the tension of a committed man unable to come to terms with the utterly ruthless machine he serves. Only in Arthur Koestler's "Darkness at Noon" and Graham Green's "burnt-out cases" can any comparison be found. •The Spy Who Came In From The Cold" is a novel of the first order--terrifying in its significance, impressive in its actuality, awesome in its high political import. It happens also to be immensely thrilling. "Sing For Your Supper" by Pamela Frankau Through the whole Weston family -- as well as their friends, retainers and assorted members of their theatrical company --form the dramatis personae of this fascinating novel, "Sing For Your Supper" is really the story of Thomas Weston, a bewitching ten-yearold boy who looks most ordinary but is most odd. The time is the summer of 1926; the place is Sawcombe, a seaside resort on the south coast of England. The Westons combine raffishness with striving respectability. Philip, the widowed father, a Pierrot who runs his own troupe, the Moonrakers, is a man who believes a golden future is just around the corner--and so never pays his bills. Deeply conscious of his gentlemanly origins, Philip sends his children to schools he cannot afford: "the right, schools." But their holidays are spent in lodgings and boarding houses all over the map, and their companions arc the other members of the Moonrakers company -- sometimes flashy or speedy or down-andout. but always friends. The linchpin of the Weston family is Blanche Briggs, the children's nanny. She has a straight moral code and a seeing eye; above all, her practicality is sorely needed to cope with the Weston circus. Of Thomas, Blanche admits that she never had a child quite like him before. His father, while deploring the fact t[hat his youngest son has short legs, finds other causes for uneasiness: Thomas' imminent expulsion from prep school, his preoccupation with magic and, most bewitching of all, his psychic power--a disquieting talent that he displays several times during this startling summer.

I-Hiring this enchanted--and enchanting summer, each character embarks on a private journey and arrives at a destination very distant from his si ai ling place. As the weeks run by, the reader experiences liuht comedy and farce, realms of fantasy and near tragedy, l iving in his own two worlds of reality and illusion and asking no questions, Thomas simply lets events bear him along, but at the novel's end he makes the first momentous decision of his life. This rich and delightful novel is complete in itself. There will, however, be two more novels a l , m i l the life of Thomas Weston to complete a trilogy entitled "Clothes of A' King's Son." "RUN ME A RIVER" by Janice Holt Giles Bohannon Cartwright is a Kentuckian and river man. He wants rjp part of the Civil war that has split the country into the North and the South. All he asks is to be left in peace to run his ramshackle boat, the RAMBLER, on the Green river, carrying merchandise and livestock from one town to another. But the generals have decided that the time for neutrality in Kentucky is past. When Bo learns that Confederate troops have occupied Bowling Green, he starts downstream, with the RAMBLER running like a scalded cat, only to find the Confederates are at Rochester ahead of him and are starting to close the lock. How the RAMBLER gets through that lock and others, and past the federal gunboats, nosing their way upstream, is a fast-moving, breathtaking account of a wild run on a battered little boat manned by a collection of rugged individualists. The most individual of them all is "Sir Henry" the old Shakespearean actor, picked up, literally, in midstream; the most charming, his sixteen year-old granddaughter, Phoe safe harbor, Bo Cartwright, who already understood, riverfc and boats, has greatly in* creased his knowledge of men, women, and war. "LEGION OF STRANGERS" by Charles Mercer The stranger - than - fiction story of the French Foreign Legion is one of men engaged in deeds of incredible heroism -- and incredible folly- -against incredible odds. In "Legion of Strangers", Charles Mercer relates the vivid history of this unique fighting force: its training, its tactics, its campaigns, its discipline, and the strange 'mystique" that has led thousands of foreigners t-j fight and die bravely for Fiance. Reflecting the rise and fall of the great French empire, this colorful chronicle follows the famed fighters from Spain to the Sahara, from Mexico to Madagascar, from Indo-China to the heartbreaking finale at Dieribienphu. How the Legion was used to crack the Hindenburg Line in World War I, its baffled role in the bungling of the Crimean war, the reluctant war against the Amazon women of Dahomey - - t hese and many more unforgettable episodes are all recorded by an author who reveals the courage, cowardice, folly, wisdom, and even humor of combat on four continents. A gripping study of war from the level of the highest military councils to the blood and sweai of the lowliest Legionnaire; "Legion Of Strangers" is also a fascinating gallery of French military leaders, among them the irascible Bugeaud, the tragic Bazaine, the redoubtable MacMahon and the DeGaulle who used elements of the Legion as the core of his Free French Forces in World War II. In these pages, readers will also be introduced to scores of officers and enlisted men: Corporal Cochan, who guzzled eight men's twelvemonth supply of wine in two weeks; Aage, the handsome Prince of Denmark, who found a new life in the Legion; and Captain Buschenschutz, who sentenced four men to musician's school for disrupting his violin^ecital. Charles Mercer writes candidly of the pleasures and torments of the Legionaire in the ranks. He tells, too, how it feels to march thirty-five miles a day under a 100-pound pack for days on end in the blistering heat, and what it means to be exposed to the ravages of SAFEGUARD YOUR GET THE MOST OUT OP SUMMER Summer months offer many opportunities for fun and healthful living, but some outdoor attractions of the season can result in sickness and even death when precautions are ignored. Summertime, for most of lis, means more time spent in the outdoors. If done injudiciously, exposure to the sun's rays even for a limited period, causes a sunburn that will bring hours of discomfort. Excursions, automobile trips, golf, tennis, swimming, and just sitting outdoors in the sun are all activities that should be indulged in gradually, allowing one's skin or muscles to befcome "seasoned"". Swimming is one of the most pleasant of all outdoor sports, but injuries and death associated with swimming are numerous. Last year,-, scores of peo pie lost their lives by drown ing in Illinois. Dives into un known waters may result in broken necks and other severe injuries. Overexertion, while swimming, produces a fatigue and exhaustion that may end in drowning. Swimming in unsanitary waters may be responsible for infections. The mosquito is a hazard of summer. Aside 'from its general nuisance value,. a certain species of this little insect, called the Anopheles mosquito, transmits malaria, a disease characterized by chills and fe ver. By biting, the female mosquito deposits its germs so that they enter the red-blood cell® where they feed. Whortfl the red-blood Cells break down, the germs repeal t lies same process until the system is so invaded that chilis and fever occur. ' Typhoid and parltypholjj fever is another hazard of summer. Caused by a gejr^Tttilled the typhoid bacillus, this Infectious disease is usually assort^ ated with filthy conditions. Be* cause the disease starts when the germ enters the victim's mouth, cleanliness is importantto avoid this condition. Drinking contaminated water should be avoided and eating food prepared by a person who is unclean. Milk, particularly raw milk, is also a source of typhoid, especially when prepared under unhygienic conditions. The common house fly transmits typhoid through its filthy habits of living* and breeding on unsanitary matters. These are but a few of the hazards of summer. They can be avoided, if care and wisdom are applied to outdoor activities. Some 2,000 U.S. manufacturing firms produce tops, with a yearly sale value of ovef.^ne billion dollars.
