Early Swim
When George Washington ijived as
a lad of 19 on the Rappahannock
River opposite Fredericksburg, Va.,
he often went for a swim in the
stream. After one such occasion,
two local girls were arrested, and
one of them was punished by court
order, for “robbing he clothes”
of the future Father of His Coun-
try. Whether the clothes themselves
or valuables they contained were
stolen, Spotsylvania County court
records do not say.

shortest in the world) is the 134.3-
mile run from New York to Spring-
field on the New Haven. However,
there was a shorter one not long
j ago. Sleeper car service on the
134.1-mile trip from Scranton to
■ Lackawanna on “The Owl” was re-
i cently discontinued.
300,000 Specimens Added
To Smithsonian Institution
More than 300,000 specimens,
mostly in the field of natural his-
tory, were added to the collections
of the United States National Muse-
um during the past year. This has
just been reported by Dr. Reming-
ton Kellogg, director of the Muse-
um, which is a branch of the Smith-
sonian Institution.
The number of specimens now
catalogued, Dr. Kellogg reports, to-
tal 32,617,298. The greatest number
of accessions during the year was
in the field of zoology, a total of
225,638, collected all over the world.
Notable were:
Six unusually fine chamois from
the Bavarian Alps collected by Capt.
Kimberly Brabson, U.S. Army.
Eighty-eight mammals from Ma-
laya and 57 reptiles from Selangor,
collected by Maj. Robert Traub, of
the Army Medical Service.
More than 200 tree-living mam-
mals collected by Dr. H. C. Clark
and his associates of the Gorgas
Memorial Laboratory.
Approximately 3,380 bird skins
and other bird material from Colum-
bia collected by M. A. Carriker, Jr.
A collection of 556 bird skins and
other bird material collected by Dr.
Alexander Wetmore and W. M.
Perrygo in Panama.
Bird specimens, including 59
; species new to the Museum, col-
lected by Dr. Herbert Friedmann

One of the most comprehensive
collections of fishes from the deep-
er waters of the Gulf of Mexico

Soldiers Leading Parade
In Blood Donors Drive
The Army’s soldiers in training (
are prepared to lead the way toward
the build-up of the dwindling re-
serves in the nation’s blood bank.
These potential combat men un-
derstand better than anyone else
in the United States the need for
adequate, life-saving blood stocks.
They are volunteering blood out of
respect for fellow soldiers already in
action on the hilly battlefields of
Korea.
Their donations are inspired by
the realistic view that the lives they
are saving could be their own.
Like relatives, neighbors and
friends in civilian life, members of
the Army throughout the country
are participating in the intensified
drive to:
1. Replace vitally-needed blood
used during 14 months of Korean
combat.
2. Replenish plasma supplies in
the badly-depleted defense stock-
pile.
The Army’s contribution to the
Armed Forces’ blood collection
drive, parallel effort of the nation-
wide civilian campaign, will be
made through donor centers estab-
lished at military camps in the
command areas of the six continent-
al armies.
Blood collections in the military-
civilian campaigns are being coor-
dinated through the American Red
Cross. The relief agency will have
primary control of the donations by
the civilian population while each
service of the Armed Forces is re-
sponsible for its part of the military
effort.
Aim of the pair of programs is
2,800,000 (M) pints of whole blood by
July, 1952. Donations will have to
average nearly 300,000 pints a month
during the next 10 months to attain
the national defense goal.

Average Motorist Loses
Gasoline Mileage In Winter
In winter the average motorist
loses from 10 to 16 per cent of the
gasoline mileage he gets out of the
same car in summer driving, ac-
cording to a new study by Delmar
G. Roos, former president of the So-
ciety of Automotive Engineers and
now a vice president of Willys-
Overland Motors, Inc.
A factor accounting for the dif-
ference, Roos explains is that in
cold weather engines lose to the
cooling water much of the heat
energy which ought to be turning the
rear wheels. Also, he points out, the
temperature of air-fuel mixtures
entering the cylinders is lower,
hence the explosion temperature is
lower and fuel is burned less effi-
ciently.
One aid suggested by Roos, whose
company is bringing out a brand
new passenger sedan which is re-
ported to do up to 35 miles a gallon,
is to run engines as warm as possi-
ble without boiling away anti-freeze
solution.
“It would be better if the water in
the cooling system were hotter—say
175 degrees to 180 degrees Fahren-
heit,” h® says. “However, since
many persons use anti-freeze solu-
tions which evaporate at 150 de-
grees, this is not feasible. It is pos-
sible to obtain anti-freeze com-
pounds that will not evaporate at all
up to the boiling point of water.
These compounds are more expen-
sive, but their use will enable more
economical engine operation at
water jacket temperatures above 180
degrees and with increased under-
hood temperatures.”
Power for Peace
Total electrical generating capac-
ity in this country has jumped 40
per cent since V-J day and should
rise another 50 per cent during the
next four years.

When time means money, alert businessmen save—
and profit—by using long distance telephone service.
At home, long distance service shortens the miles
separating families and loved ones—sometimes in
emergency—more often on holidays, birthdays and
anniversaries.
When time is important, long distance service saves
time, adds a personal touch no other communication
affords. And when you call by number, service is even
faster—often twice as fast!
Keep a list of the out-of-town numbers you call most
frequently. Place your long distance calls by number.
It will pay you—in time.
