CHICAGO, III. tU.Ki — Children
who rend comic books aren't tieces
sanly tail-enders in scholastic class
HtandingB.
A Northwestern University pru-
feasor has reported that comic
book readership in the top quarter
u- ,uveraKe grade school is just
as high as in the bottom quarter.
Prof. Paul E. Witty, director of
Northwestern's psycho-educational
clinic, added that comic book read-
ing also is not a major factor in
delinquency.
Nevertheless, he deplored "the
increasing tendency of television
to follow the lead of the comic
books and to present larger num-
bers of programs in which acts of
violence and aggression are de-
picted," despite the fact that the
evil effects of modern comics have
perhaps been "overstated."
"It may be shown that many
comic books, perhaps one fourth
or more, present to the child re
curring instances of violence, hate,
and aggression," Witty said. "Such
a reading diet, unbalanced by the
presentation of stories and illus-
trations disclosing more humane
and democratic Values, may lend to
the acceptance of violence and ag-
gression as a normal way of life."
Charges that comic books con-
triube to delinquent behavior can-
not be entirely dismissed, Witty
said. But he added that surveys
show that grade school teachers
agree with his findings that comic
book readership alone is not on in-
dex of scholastic standing or of be-
havior stability.
"The teachers report little dif-
ference between children who are
in the upper quarter and those in
the lower quarter of comic book
reading in the frequency of be-
havior problems," Witty said.
"In one study," he added, "we
found that the average education-
al attainment of pupils who were
in the upper fourth in amount of
comic reading was almost identical
with those who were in the lower
fourth. Teachers were interviewed
and generally corroborated these
results."
Alma White Has
No Collegiate Air
ZAkKPflATII, N. J. <!.!•
Ill-inking, smoking, dancing—even
lipstick-—arc unheard of at Alma
White, a college Shangri-la when-
the professors wear lila.'k bowler
hats, frock coats and stiff white
collars,
The beautiful 1,000 acre cam
pus, nestled peacefully beneath tbi
Watchung Mountains, is a far er>
from the "average" American col
lege where the professors dress
like businessmen, co-eds wear
jeans and social life centers about
Saturday night dances.
There are no week-end high
jinks at Alma White, a spiritual
haven for SO young men, and wom-
en and the six unpaid teachers who
comprise the entire college popu-
lation.
'I'll.-re are no Stadiuhi-jammed
i'ooihail saiues, no shrieking cheer
leaders to whip up student "spirit,"
no frtttrv"*t«; mi sororities, no
social teas, no gam "float" parades
and animal homecomings here.
There is only quiet peace.
The liev. Arthur K. White, pres-
ident, whose mother, Bishop Alma
White, founded the institution in
said the school was set up to
develop more fully the students'
mental, physical and spiritual fac-
ulties,
"We make no apologies for
stressing moral training here," he

said.
The college, only 30 miles from
Newark, the state's largest city,
was founded and supported by the
Pillar of Fire, a Methodist order.
It is accredited by the state and
confers degrees of bachelor of sci-
ence and bachelor of arts.

LABORATORY TESTS PROMISED...
this new, iiuper-refined, super-powered fuel will give you these immediate and lasting benefits:
ROAD TESTS PROVED...
^ More complote engine protection
than the so-called "miracle-additive" gaso-
lines. Why? Because Gulf refines out the
"dirty-burning tail-end" of gasoline, the No. 1
troublemaker in high-compression engines
—and then treats this new Super-Refined
NO-NOX to give it a complete range of pro-
tective properties,
^ Extra gas mileage. Why? Because new
NO-NOX is specially blended for the short-
trip, stop-and-go driving motorists do most.
^ No knock, no pre -ign#ion—even in
today's super-compression engines. Why?
Because the anti-knock power of new NO-
NOX has been stepped up to an all-time high.
^ Stall-proof smoothness—no more wor-
ries about carburetor icing in chilly weather,
or vapor lock on warm days. Instant starts,
too—and fast, fuel-saving warm-up.
That's why—whether your car is new or old—
new Super-Refined Gulf NO-NOX gives more
power-with-protection than you've ever had.

these cars, powered

after 15,000 miles!
TRUE! After 15,000 miles per car—covering all
conditions of city and country driving—Gulf
test cars showed these results:
► Higher-than-new horsepower!
^ Belter-fhan-new on gasoline mileage!
^ And not a single trace of carbon knock
or pre-ignition at any time—even on
the steepest mountain grades!
