NEW YORK (f! — The city gov-

selling business—mostly jalopies.
It started in 1954 with 434 aban-
doned cars to auction. A number
are found on the streets at this
time of year because the owners
decide they are not worth re-regis-
tering.
Last year the city sold 3,684
abandoned cars for a total of $48,-

$15 each.

DRUMMOND ISLAND, Mich. (
—Workers in the dolomite plant
here have news for Pravda, the
Russian newspaper. Pravda, they
learned, said that “socialist com-
petition’’ at a Russian Donets Ba-
sin plant had produced three-quart-
ers of a million tons of dolomite
in a year and claimed this as a
world's record. (Dolomite is lime-
stone with a high magnesium con-

Drummond Workers wrote Prav-
da a letter, with a copy to Premier
Malenkov. It said:
“We reached the three-quarter
million mark six years ago. Last
year we produced over two and a
half million tons.”
Pravda said the Russian plant
employs 350 men. There are 200
employed here.
The letter continued:

he had to beat because they would

To the Senate colleagues . who

They know from experience that
the Kentuckian is a very persuas-
ive sort of fellow, that he can op-
pose without making enemies but
that he stands mighty firm on
principle.
He is pretty much the sort of
man they would pick to deal with
India's Prime Minister Jawahar-
lal Nehro, whose motives and ac-
tions are regarded with some sus-
picion by a number of senators.
A somewhat aloof and always a
quiet man, Cooper was never a
ball of fire in the Senate. He made
his imprint by intensive study of
subjects in which he was vitally
interested, often wrestled with his
soul for days before coming to a
decision.
Once it was made, however, he
stood up under such withering fire
as that the late Sen. Robert A.
Taft of Ohio directed at him when
Taft inquired caustically if Cooper
were a Democrat or Republican.
This was after Cooper had voted
with the Democrats on the first
two tests after he was sworn in as
a senator.
Cooper, 53, a native of Somerset
in the Cumberland Hills, first was
elected to the Senate in 1946 to
fill the unexpired term of Sen. A.
B. “Happy” Chandler. He was
beaten in 1948 but was re-elected
in 1952 to complete the unexpired
term of the late Sen. Virgil Chap-
man, a Democrat.
A basketball player at Yale,
Cooper gives the impression of a
University and the University of
Rochester. Her professional career
has been devoted to teaching
clothing, costume design and re
lated arts in New York, Pennsyl-
vania, and Texas.
Dr. Thomas is a native Texan.
She attended high school in Denton
and holds the bachelor of science
degree from Columbia University
and the master's degree from
TSCW.
RESEARCH FIELD
Her husband, Albert R. Thomas,
was a brilliant scientist who de-
veloped many basic processes now
applied to air conditioning and re-
frigeration. After his untimely
death, she decided to go into the
field of research. She will now be
the leader of a research group
at TSCW, studying rayon and oth-
er synthetic textile fibers.
Dr. Thomas evaluated and test-
ed the properties of finishes for
rayon fabrics. She worked on the
development and evaluation of cer-
tain chemical finishes.
Both these studies were support-
ed by grants from the American
Viscose Corporation.
Dr. Hard's work was partly sup-
ported by the Research and De-
velopment Branch of the Office of
the Quarter Master General of the
Army.
She tested the soil removal ef-
ficiency of certain soap and deter-
gency combinations and found
much data of value to commerci-
al and institutional laundries and
soap manufacturers.
The study involved testing un-
der extensive highly controlled
measurements of soap and de-
tergency blends.
NATIVE TEXAN
Dr. Hard also to a native Tex-
an. She attended school in Tarrant
County and Lubbock and gradu-
ated from Lubbock High School
She holds a B.S. degree from Tx-
as Technological CoDege and a
master's degree from TSCW.

The coveted doctor of philosophy
degree was awarded to three can-
didates in the field of home econo-
mics at TSCW Sunday.
The degree was conferred on
Graham Hard, Lubbock, Elizabeth
Flowers Thomas, Denton, and Be-
thel Caster, Denton, for research
work and advanced study in tex-
tiles and textile technology and
detergency.
Dr. Caster, who is a member of
the staff of the College of House-
hold Arts and Sciences at TSCW,
investigated the performance of ex-
perimental fabric finishes while
the fabrics were being made in-
to garments and worn under cer-
tain carefully controlled conditions.
Her study included the ease of
cleaning, strength of fabrics, re-
sistance, amount of stretching,
draping quality, comfort and dur-
ability during wear.
TESTS DEVISED
Tests devised by Drs. Caster
and Thomas will be used as a
part of experimental students in
other textile laboratories in col-
leges and universities and by in-
dustry.
Dr. Caster was born in New
York and graduated from Ithaca,
N. Y. She holds a bachelor’s de-
gree from Cornell University and
the master of arts degree from
Columbia University.
She has carried on advanced
study at the Taylor School of In-
