This Worm Won'tSquirm Says Expert

Never again will the femaleangler have to squirm with theworm she is trying to impale ona fishhook.

Plastic-bodied lures, a noveltynot so long ago, are available nowin worms "that feel more likereal ones do—and catch fish too,"reports Karl F. Lagler, chairmanof the Department of Fisheries atthe University of Michigan.

Lagler cites a number of otherways in which the age of plastic isincreasing the pleasure of fisher-men and hunters on "ConservationReport," a radio series producedby the U-M Broadcasting Serviceand carried around the state.

Fish lines of plastics in the ny-lon family are the strongest fortheir diameter of any that fisher-man have ever used, he points out.

Another new wrinkle in baitmerchandising is the pac^ageing

of minnows in plastic bags*Fishery specialists are using the

plastic sacs with great success totransport fish used in stockinglakes and streams, Lagler pointsout.

Properly packed with a bubbleof oxygen in the bag, fish haveexcellent survival. University ofMichigan scientists have air-ship-ped live fish for research this wayfrom tropical Mexico to AnnAjrbor saving great weight over oldfashioned fish cans.

Inexpensive plastic waders, Lag-ler says, have put many a fisher-man in waters previously too deepfor him to tackle. Plastic jackets,pliable even when cold, keep himwarm and dry above.

Lagler says that on a pigeonshoot in France, he first encoun-tered shotgun shells with plasticcasings. Not only are they verywater proof, but shot size, alongwith primer, powder and wad, areclearly visible through the plasticcasing.

ConservationNotes

Considerations in Michigan^parks permit law which goes in ef-fect August 17, will be discussedduring the Conservation Commis-sion's June 9 meeting at the Hig-gins Lake conservation school.

Commissioners and Conserva-tion Department officials will dis-cuss when and at which parks orportions of parks the annual $2.00and daily 50-cent sticker fees willbe in effect. The Commission can-not charge fees nor formally adopta bond resolution itemizing pro-posed land purchases and improve-ments until August 17. Other de-tails involved in defining and for-mulating the sticker program willbe studied.

High bids for oil and gas leasesto nearly 84,000 acres of stateowned lands totaled more than$142,000 during a two-day publicauction held in Lansing last weekby the Conservation Department.More than 101,000 acres were of-fered.

The total bonus is the thirdhighest recorded since the auctionform of leasing was introduced in1929. Acreage-wise,^the sale wasthe largest since 1951 when theaverage bid per acre was only 16cents. Bids during last week's auc-tion averaged $1.69 per acre.

All bids will recede formal ac-tion by the Conservation Com-mission during its June 9 meetingat the Higgins Lake- conservationschool. Bonuses from oil and gasleasing of state lands go to Mich-igan's general fund.

L̂ ast week's sale reflects a re-vival of interest in Michigantriggered for the most part by pro-duction in the relatively new Al-bion - Scipio field which^yieldedapproximately 30 percent of thestate's oil output in 1959.

With most of the lands in thissouthern Michigan area alreadyleased, interest has spread to othersectors of the state. Lease bids, weremade for lands in 31 counties ofthe lower peninsula with Char-levoix and Montmorency countiesleading the list in acreage. Approx-imately 12, 562 and 9,613 acresdrew bids in these counties, re-spectively.

Most of the 43 successful bid-ders are already active in the oiland gas industry of Michigan;about half a dozen are new to thestate scene.

State Police Tellof May Accidents

May became the second succes-sive month this year in Michiganto show a sharp drop in highwaytraffic deaths, with a loss of 98lives compared to 126 in the samemonth a year ago, a reduction of28, or 22 percent,: according toprovisional Slate Police figures.

Included were 18 fatalities dur-ing the 78-hour Memorial week-end but delayed deaths are expect-ed to increase that figure and themonth's total. Twelve died in the54-hour holiday last year, while 13were recorded in the 78-hourperiod in 1958.

Though there were fewer deathsin May and April, the total forthe first five months still exceedsthe toll for the camparable 1959period, or 515 to 489, and increaseof 26, or five per cent.

The downward trend in the lasttwo months despite an increase intravel gives traffic officials somebasis for optimism following a longperiod of increases which manyfeared would continue without in-terruption-

Complete figures for the firstfour months of the year showthere were 417 deaths and 25,258injuries in 68,757 accidents.

Blanch AsparagusBefore Freezing

It takes boiling water and icewater to get fresh asparagus readyfor the freezer. A dip in scaldingwater blanches the asparagus, anda dip in ice water quickly coolsit.

Roberta Hcrshey, foods and nu-trition specialist at Michigan StateUniversity, says this blanching isa step homemakers often snub.But tests show that the asparaguswill snub you right back to losingquality in the freezer. The longerthe vegetable is stored, the morenoticeable is the quality loss, intexture, flavor and color.

Timing is important for bothblanching and cooling steps. Ittakes two to four minutes for theblanching, depending on the sizeof the asparagus. Cooling shouldbe done in the same amount oftime.

Work quickly, but don't 'shortchange" the process. Blanchingdestroys food enzymes whichwould otherwise over-ripen theasparagus, causing undesirablechanges in the food. Miss Hersheyadds that all vegetables commonlyfrozen require blanching to keepthe best quality possible-

State Police WarnOn Use ofIllegal Fireworks

Giant sparklers, one of the mosthazardous devices appearing inMichigan, are singled out in a

warning on illegal fireworks to mer-chants and residents by the firemarshall division of the StatePolice.

Reports of unlawful and danger-ous fireworks being stocked up bymerchants prompted the cautionby Captain Glenroy Walker, chiefof the division at East Lansingheadquarters.

Risks of arrest and personal in-jury confront those who involvethemselves in the sale, possessionor use of illegal fireworks. Viola-tion of the law is a misdemeanorpunishable by a fine of $100 or90 days in jail, or both.

Virtually all fireworks are illegalin Michigan, regardless of type andsize, except that qualified organi-zations, upon proper applicationfor the issue of a permit, canpossess and exhibit fireworks forpublic display, Walker said.

Legal only for individual useare the caps for cap pistols and thesmall sparklers containing not morethan .0125 of a pound of burningelements. The oversize sparklersburn fiercely, are unpredictableand constitute a definite fire andinjury danger.

With 64 water accidents claim-^es and injuring 28 so far

this year, the State Police are urg-ing extra care as the water sportsseason gets into full stride.

Of the accidents, 33 were fatals,17 involved personal injury and 14were property damage only. Theinformation is based on reports re-ceived through June 9.

The 35 persons drowned includ-ed eight boat operators, five boatpassengers, one swimmer or wader,one skin diver, four children whostrayed from their parents and intowater, five suicides, and five whofell through ice, four into rivers,one from a bridge and one froma dredge. ^

Water) sports activity is expectedto begin reaching its peak in thethree-day July 4 weekend and theState Police urge vigilant attentionto safety precautions.

Under state law, ail water ac-cidents involving death, injury orproperty damage in excess of $50must be reported to enforcementagencies which in turn send thisinformation to the State Police.

Tractor Rides AreHazardous . . .

Over 22 million dollars worthof prc kindergarten children havebeen crushed to death by Michiganfarm tractors since 1950.

At least, that's how it figuresout based on parents1 statementsthat "I wouldn't take a milliondollars for my little boy or girl."

Of course, dollar values can'tbe put on children's lives, addsRichard Pfister, agricultural en-gineering safety specialist at Mich-igan State University. But he be-lieves these figures tell an alarm-ing story.

"Pre-school-age deaths on farmtractors outnumbered fatalities inthe 30-34 year age group by threeto one," the safety specialist con-tinues.

Carrying the comparison fur-ther, the 30 - 34 year old groupputs in a lot of time on the tractor.Pre-kindergarten kids do no realwork, and a tractor accident cancut short the full life they haveahead tff them.

Then too, these children haveno choice. They don't make andcouldn't avoid the decisions thatspell their doom.

To be sure, "Daddy, can I takea ridev^^a-hard plea to resist. Atractor ride is one of the world'sbiggest thrills for many smallchildren.

"If dad can't say no, he shouldgive rides only when he's doingnothing else," Pfister emphasizes.

Enjoy Flowers ButDon't Eat Them

Poison may be growing in yourgarden. Richard Pfister. extensionsafety specialist at Michigan StateUniversity, estimates that morethan one hundred plants found inAmerican gardens contain somepoison.

Consider the tulip bulb whichcontains enough poison to kill aman. One ten-cent package ofcastor seeds has enough poison' tokill five children. Sweet peas cancause a temporary paralysis, and"elephant ears" can induce painfulswelling of (he mouth, tongue andthroat. Some other common plantsmay have poisonus seeds or berriesor leaves.

This does not mean you shouldstop growing flowers. However,you should take precautions to in-sure that no members of yourfamily "cat" what should be "look-ed-at". Do not chew on the leavesor stems' of plants and warn chil-dren not to put leaves or stems intheir mouths.

MICHIGANMIRROR

Michigan's Tourist

Vacation is a period when youexchange good dollars for badquarters.

"He should drive in first gear andmake the ride short. And heshouldn't do it often because a setroutine usually leads to careless-ness,"

are the product for a year-aroundhard-sell campaign.

The Michigan Tourist Counciluses all the media of communi-cations plus numerous general in-formation techniques to promotethe state's vacation spots both with-in the state and throughout the na-tion.

And the council gets good co-operation from commercial groupswithin the state.

• 0 * *

The Council divides its commer-cial advertising program into threeparts to coincide with the threemajor vacation seasons in the state:Winter, Spring-Summer and Au-tumn.

Advertisements timed to exertthe greatest possible sales influencejust prior to the time when vaca-tioners make their plans for eachseason are placed with magazinesnewspapers and radio-television.

A comprehensive array of infor-mative and attractive literature isalso prepared by the Council.

The whole package is aimed athelping people pick the right spotfor their vacation from among thepractically numberless recreationfacilities in Michigan.

In addition to the advertising thatis bought and paid for, the Councilprepares news-type press releasesand pictures that are passed out tonewspapers, magazines, radio andTV.

Underlying the whole programis a personal-contact public re-lations program that has two ma-jor purposes.

• • » •

First, it must keep in touch withresort operators, tourist servicesand vacation spots so they can besttake advantage of the Council pro-gram, and second, it must contin-ually deal with potential user* ofMichigan's vacation spots and stim-ulate renewed and expanded in-terest.

This part of the Council's pro-gram includes a whole range ofappearances at outdoor and travelshows, both in Michigan and out ofstate; personal service informationdispensed by mail and in face-to-face meetings with vacationers andpotential vacationers; contacts withtransportation companies, indus-tries, wholesale and retail firmsand social and professional organ-izations; showing of films and giv-ing of lectures on Michigan attrac-tions, and preparations of publicservice announcements by radioand TV.

In addition, the public relationspart of the program involves partic-ipation in tourist industry imprpve-ment programs.

DISTINGUISHED-LOOKINGPaul Adams, the Michigan Attor-ney General, recently completed atask that a shy man might haveshunned.

The staid old state of Massachu-setts wanted to know whetherMichigan law prohibited the wear-ing of "slacks, shorts or trousers"by women when appearing in pub-lic.

A legislative researcher in Bostonthrew the task to Adams as part ofa survey program.

• • • *"We cm learn of no occasion

on which a woman was convictedof disorderly conduct or indecentexposure by reason of the fact thatshe was attired in slacks, shorts ortrousers," Adams said in a letter tothe Massachusetts official whoasked the question.

Furthermore, Adams issued apress release outlining the entireexchange of letters.

While hardly a delicate subject,the question of women's attirecould be expected to raise an eye-brow or two in some quarters.Adams handled it forthhghtly—and publicly.

CITIZENS FOR MICHIGAN,that non-partisan, political actiongroup headed by American MotorsPresident George Romney, hascome out for a Constitutional Con-vention as a means to modernizethe state's 52 year-old basis law.

Included in CFM's stand on thecontroversial issue was a nine-pointprogram of things that the groupbelieves need to be changed.

Longer terms in office for thegovernor, legislature and otherelected state officials was one ofthe recommendations.

CFM also backed: a shorter,more concise Constitution; fewerelected state officials; fewer elec-tions held at more regular inter*vals; elimination of "earmarked"funds to be fed by general staterevenues; stronger home rule incounty and metropolitan govern-ments, and changes—unspecified—in the present formula for appor-tioning seats in lawmaking bodies,presumably both state and national.

• • * *

Other changes which CFM call-ed for would affect noticeably thejudicial and legislative branches ofstate government.

The group advocated changes inthe method of selecting judges,particulary Supreme Court justiceswho are now nominated by partybut elected on a non-partisan bal-lot, and a stronger legislature bypermitting a Legislative Council,and appointment of the AuditorGeneral by the Legislature.

Eye Care ImportantIn Summer Sun

As one eye specialist put it, sun-glasses are as important in summeras overcoats are in winter. He citeda year-long study of the effect ofthe sun on eyesight in which it wasfound that about half of all per-sons over 20 years of age haveunsatisfactory retinal sensitivity un-der conditions of low contrast, suchas at dusk or during the night. Itwas discovered that retinal sensi-tivity under the same conditions ismaterially better in persons whomake it a habit to wear sunglasses.

Exposure to bright sun bleaches"visual purple" in the eye—a pig-ment in the retina needed for vis-ion in dim light. Persons with thiscondition in marked form shouldavoid driving except in daylighthours. Visual reaction is slowedby this condition and can makethe driver accident prone. This ef-fect is often more noticeable im-mediately after exposure, but mayhave a "slow fuse" and causetrouble days later.

Plans for MedicalCare BuildingSet by Group

A group, known as the promo-tional committee, has begun in-tensive work on an all-out cam-paign to acquaint the voters ofLivingston County with the per-tinent facts relative to the proposedMedical-Care facilities for the agedand the chronically ill.

Appointed by Harold Arm-strong, chairman of the-Board ofSupervisors, to assist the WelfareCommittee, this group met on June6. 1960, at the Courthouse Annex,Howell. to hear architect ClarkAckley discuss the tenative plansfor the proposed building.

The following persons were ap-pointed to serve the specific groupsmentioned; (However, any organ-ization desiring a speaker on thissubject may receive immediatehelp by contacting Joseph Ellis, ofBrighton, chairman of the Wel-fare Committee, or any memberof the promotional committee.)Farm Bureau, Robert Smith;Churches and Clergy, Rev.

Salmonella IsNot Delicious

n «f •§ • woro involved inin t t f f .

How'd you like a little Sal-monella for lunch?

Sound enticing? Like a saladdish, made with salmon, lettuce,mayonnaise, and other tasty mor-sels, for a hot summer's day?

Well, Mrs. Alice Smith, chiefof the public health nutrition sec-tion of the state health department,has news for you. Salmonella is thebacteria which causes food poison-ing, called salmonellosis, It's mostprevalent in the summertime,though there may be cases of itany time of the year,

The bacteria come in a varietyof sizes, shapes and colors, all ofwhich have been given differentnames and cause different degreesof illness. Some make you "death-ly" ill; others dead.

In the first quarter of this year,71 cases were reported to thehealth department. Last year therewere 250 cases reported, 54 ofthem during the summer monthsof June through July. There wereno fatalities, according to healthdepartment records.

You've heard of food poisoningoutbreaks. If you were a victim,you'll remember how sick youwere.

What MO (method of operation)does this villain use? If you learnhis MO, you' can help preventfood poisoning outbreaks in res-taurants and in the home.

Salmonella thrive and multiplyrapidly in warm temperatures.Therefore, refrigeration is of primeimportance. Watch the kids, Momdon't let them leave the sandwichspread, milk, mayonnaise and otherfoods which spoil easily out on thetable.

Potato salad; mayonnaise andother dressings; milk and milkproducts; poultry; egg and tunasalads; cream or custard-filled piesor othcr# cream-filled baked goods;and meat products are foods thepoisonous bacteria most commonlyattack. Store mixtures containingmilk and eggs in shallow pans inthe refrigerator so they becomethoroughly chilled, Mrs. Smith ad-vises.

Salmonella is transmitted byman or animal. To help prevent it,always wash your hands thorough-ly before handling food.

Symptoms generally start witha tired feeling and irritability, fol-lowed by loss of appetite, achesand fever, and usually severestomach cramps and diarrhea.Most people become ill enough torun to their doctor immediately,and many are hospitalized. Thereare some less severe eases whichrespond to the common remediesfor treating mild stomach crampsand diarrhea.

No Extension ofReserve Contracts

Chairman Charles J. Davis ofthe Michigan State AgriculturalStabilization and ConservationCommittee today announced thatConservation Reserve contractswhich expire in 1960 or later yearsare no longer eligible to be extend-ed for an additional period of years.

Previously, contracts entered intofor 5 years or less have been elig-ible for extension up to the max-imum of 10 years upon applicationfiled with the County ASC Com-mittee at any time before the ori-ginal expiration date.

Mr. Davis said the extension ofcontracts is being stopped at thistime because of the fact that ex-tension has the same effect as a newcontract and would require the ex-penditure of additional Conserva-tion Reserve funds. Under presentlegislation, no new ConservationReserve contracts may be enteredinto.* The only exception to the cut-off on extensions is in the case ofcontracts calling for tree-plantingfor which seedlings are not avail-able.

Mr. Davis said the present rul-ing has no effect on the periodof existing contracts. These willcontinue in accordance with con-tract terms.

For your youngsters sake aswell as your own, take time to in-vestigate before signing up or pay-ing tuition to any school, collegeor training facility. It may saveboth money and heartbreak.

Never has the diploma mill op-erator had it so good. All schoolsand colleges are crowded to hurst-ing. Demands for education andspecialized training arc at an all-time high.

These unscrupulous con-men willtake your money and exploit yourwillingness to sacrifice for learning,to line his pockets, leaving youwiser only in the ways of con-men.

A recent case investigated bymy office concerned the operationof a mail order outfit aimed at peopie who want civil service jobs.The operator employed no teachers(only salesmen and somebody toslit open the envelopes and shakethe money out). By cunninglyworded advertisements offering a24-lesson course with "placementcounseling," he induced thousandsof people to sign notes and con-tracts. Once signed, the notes weresold to a finance company( whichis not responsible for the originalseller's promises). He could thenignore the outraged cries of thevictims when they received themimeographed mishmash labelled"lesions."

My office was able to put himout of business in Michigan. Butmy investigation discloses thatwhen driven out of one business,such as civil service training, thediploma mill artist quickly shiftsto another operation, such aa jetmechanics training, air hostesstraining, meat-cutting schools, andso on.
