Overcomes Horse
A foreign Communist was being
honored at a state dinner in Russia
and became perturbed when he ex-
tracted a piece of rubber tire from
his soup. A secret policeman noted
his concern.
Recovering his composure he rais-
ed the rubber on his spoon saying:
“Imagine, only 35 years in power,
and the automobile is replacing the
horse!”
The standard method, according to
first-aid manuals, for treating shock
is to lower the patient’s head and
raise the feet. At a recent Heart As-
sociation Symposium in Los Angeles,
researcher Howard Whigham of the
U. S. C. School of Medicine declared
that such treatment increases the risk
of death. Whigham says research
proves conclusively that patients
should be kept horizontal. For years,
doctors, nurses, policemen and fire-
men have been taught to lower the
head and raise the feet of a patient
in shock on the premise that such a
position increased the return of blood
to the heart from the legs and im-
proved flow to the brain. Shock is
a major cause of death in all hos-
pitals, with a mortality rate of 89%,
according to Whigham. Research by
the Shock Research Unit at L. A.
General Hospital shows that anyone
in shock should be placed in a hori-
zontal position. DO NOT LOWER
HIS HEAD.

a merchant you know, or from a

Remember, in this world of tough
business competition, one seldom gets
anything for nothing. Once you have
signed an order, even the law may
not be able to help you, no matter
how improvident the deal may be
for you. In fact, unless the seller is
doing something illegal, the law may
wind up helping him to enforce the
bad deal that you made. So watch
the signals and look before you leap
— or sign!

Difference
A psychiatrist was questioning a
patient and asked, “What would you
say would be the difference between
a little boy and a dwarf?”
The patient thought for a while and
said, “Well, there might be a lot of
difference.”
“What, for instance?” asked the
psychiatrist, encouragingly.
“Well,” replied the patient, “the
dwarf might be a girl.”

SUCKER SIGNALS
There is no sorrier person than one
who has been victimized by a phony
deal. Unfortunately, once the buyer
has signed an order or contract, little
can be done to get him off the hook.
“But I didn’t realize . . .” are words
often heard by lawyers who are
usually unable to help at that point.
Despite the complete disavowance
of “caveat emptor” (let the buyer be-
ware) by ethical merchants, there are
still some businesses that thrive on
high promotion deals. Buyers are
contacted by direct mail, over the
telephone, or by “come on” adver-
tisements. These contacts all resort
to fancy claims and a high pressure
approach.
How can you avoid such sales tac-
tics? There is no sure way, outside
of dealing with reputable, established
merchants, and using common sense
in reading the ads. But there are
certain sucker signals that should
ring the alarm bell. Here are a few:
“Buy now or lose the chanace . . .”
“You have been specially selected
“It’s only a legal form . . .”
“You can save up to . . .”
“Yours absolutely free . .
These signals do not necessarily
indicate a bad deal, but they are fre-
quently used by shady promoters. So
read carefully, think it over, compare
in others.
This is bad enough just within the
boundaries of Texas. But get outside
the state and the misinterpretation is
compounded.

MODENA, Italy — A house painter
claimed a stay-awake record Tuesday
after 273.5 hours without sleep.
Gabriele Reggian, 25, had been
awake for 11% days.
“I feel as if something is weighing
on my head,” he said when he called
it quits. “The only thing is my hands
keep quivering.”
The claimed record was 272 hours
by another Italian house painter,
"Giuliano Fantoni.
Reggiani spent his time in an all-
hours cafe. He supplemented his diet
of steaks with 40 cigarettes and six
cups of black coffee a day.

OVER YELLOW CORN
/■
A Dutchman was explaining the
red, white, and blue
! flag to an American,
wc uaiLii ex taCTeaiiiie t
which we call the ling. But over in i Our flag has a connection with
i our taxes,” he said.
“We get red when we talk about
them, white when we get our tax
bills, and we pay them till we’re
blue in the face.”
“That’s just how it is in the U. S.
A.,” said the American, “only we
see stars, too.”
“Dad, instead of buying me an ex-
Netherlands pensive birthday present, why not
■ give me something you’ve made
yourself?”
“What’s that?”
“Money!”

Mississippi, natives refer to it as the
lemonfish. In Florida it goes by its
true handle, cobia.
Aliases for the common crappie are
endless, being different with almost
every area and state. Parts of Texas
are among the few places where it
goes by its true name.
The more a person travels, the
more he meets this confusing over-
lapping of nicknames.
In the Far West, a man might
catch a Mackinaw. But in Canada he
will be taking a lake trout. That’s
its true name.
The redfish of the Texas coast is
often called the red drum along the
Atlantic seaboard. And the Texas’
skipjack is better known by its true
name, the ladyfish, in other parts of
the United States.
Over in Florida, people call it the
mudfish, although its real name is
bowfish. And there the crappie are
called speckled perch.
In Texas the common sunfish is
better known as perch or brim, while
in other areas it probably will be
called a bream.
The spotted bass which is found
in plentiful numbers in Central
Texas, particularly in streams like
the Llano and Guadalupe, frequently
is referred to as the smallmouth bass.
But it certainly isn’t a true small-
mouth bass. Actually it’s a distinct
specie of its own.
In some areas the bigmouth bass
might be called a trout or green trout,
but generally just the handlie “bass”
will suffice.
There is one fish, however, that
carry just one name no
where you might find it.
That’s the carp. Fishermen every-
where have called the carp many
impolite names which can’t be re-
peated here, but when it gets right
down to facts, the fisherman probab-
ly will admit that he’s just caught
himself a carp.
Same can be said for the gar. It
goes by the simple handle of gar just
about anywhere you find it.
But the carp and gar are in the
minority. Most of our gamefish are
showered with nicknames and alias-
es.
Still, it is as the man said, a black
bass by any other name . . . still re-
mains the black bass.

It has been said that a black bass
by any other name would still be a
heckuva fighter.
No doubt this is true. And surpris-
ingly, you don’t find black bass by
many ether names. Just plain bass
seems to satisfy most everyone.
But in this respect, the black bass
is in a select class. Other fish are
burdened with aliases and nicknames.
A man not familiar with local jargon
might be catching one of his home-
town favorites and never realize it.
For example, in the Highland
Lakes of Central Texas he might take
himself a mess of crappie. But over in
East Texas he’ll be catching white
perch, although it is one and the
same fish.
In North Texas, anglers take an as-
tronomical number of sand bass. But
in Central Texas it is the white bass,
and in parts of East Texas the striper.
The bullhead catfish seldom goes
by its true moniker. Rather it is call-
ed either a mud cat or a pollywog.
King mackerel are better known
as kingfish and Spanish mackerel as
simply mackerel.
Spotted weakfish are called spotted
trout and channel bass are redfish.
The bowfin in East Texas is known
as a grindie, and the pickerel as a
jack or pike.
Flathead catfish are more
monly known as yellow cat,
channel cat frequently
forktails.
Even though a fish may some-
times go by the same spelled name,
pronunciation will vary with differ-
