Long live Ike a respected man
One of the penalties of knowing a great manor a great
woman is the inevitable time when goodbye must be said
Everyone experiences these tugs at the heart in everyday
family life as intimate ties are broken children to school
and college marriage of a young man or lady of the home
the finality of death
School children feel fometh!tg of loss when the dis-
missal bell rings on the last day of the term even if it is
only the thought that a pleasurable routine is broken for the
moment
And to a similar though greater extent does a nation
undergo a real tug at the heart when a President who has
been their leader says goodbye Especially so when that
leader has earned such profound respect as has Dwight D
Eisenhower not only for a great eight years of stewardship
as President but for a lifetime of service to his country
that brought the respect of the world to him and through
him to America even before he became the President
Historians will evaluate the eight years of the Eisen-
howepadministration as ones of almost unparalleled change
throughout the world The missile age flowered alongside
the rise of a new Asia more than matched in drama and
significance by the new Africa that is still being formed
With the death of Stalin and the rise of Khrushchev this
meant striking difference in the techniques of the Soviet
challenge
Through all of this period fraught with the danger that
all Americans understood we were comforted with the
knowledge that we had a leader who could cope with it all
whose penchant for guessing right appeared to be God-given
as his record en Normandy Beach first brought to the
light of the entire world
When be said goodbye Tuesday night be was pleased
to bequeath to his successor and to his countrymen "the
' strongest the most influential and the most productive
nation in the world" "But so much remains to be done" he
raid with 'a definite sense of disappointment" in the search
for a disarmament be said is a continuing imperative
As we now place our hopes on the younger man to be in
the 'White House beginning Friday with all the sincere
wishes for success that youth and eagerness may accomplish
we are constrained to feel a heart tug as Ike IRO down the
reins of leadership
We join a grateful nation in thanks to President Eisen
bower and every wish for a long life as Former-President
earned through gracious and patient conduct under every
facet of strain that could unsteady a lesser man
Long live Ike even as we bail the new JFK

It was a Shawnee girl who replied when asked If she
broke her date the night before "I don't think so he still
had a quarter left"
Up in Kansas some staunch Republican newspapers are
'now observing that former Governor Docking (Democrat for
two terms) wati a pretty good executive What the editors
apparently are trying to say is that Governor Doc Iting was
a better governor after he was governor than when he was
governor Or so it seems
Perhaps the reason so many country boys and girls
migrate to the great cities is that there are so many more
excuses for being late to work
We can never quite get out of our mind a question a
fellow editor asked several years ago when Rome's lusty
busty contribution to the cinema world was unveiled What
he wanted to know was whether Lollabrigida is Italian for
"Duck" to avoid being hit by the Lowa da brigida just ahead

Vending machines
now change $5 bill
By WARD CANNEL
VEW YORK (NEA)--Comes ow another
Ai one of those sudden anniversaries when
it's too late to do anything but look back to
see what's happened to you
The automatic vending machine is 73 years
old today
And what started on an elevated train plat-
form in New York in 111845 as a penny gumboil
dispenser has grown into a $3 billion industry
and changed the pattern of our lives
If it were not for coin-operated machines
Industry' leaders say proudly husbands would
probably rot be doing the family laundry you
would not be smoking as much: your kids
might not be drinking as many soft beverages
and meals might be longer slower and more
varied
Without vending machines the Industry
figures show a major category of small busi-
ness in the US would be nonexistent There
are today 5600 vending machine cornpanies
and 150 machine manufacturers Nine out of
10 of these companies employ fewer than 10
people Half are one two or three-man opera-
tons The machines sell everything Toiletries
newspapers books ke postage stamps shoe
shines photographs weight (and fortune)
kiddie rides gumboils so herd they must be
at least 73 years old—you name it
But in the area of food and drink dispens-
ing the coin machines have made their biggest
inroads in our lives According to a recent
survey of US industry eight out of 10 plants
use vending machines to help solve factory
feeding problems One plant in Eve uses ma-
chines to do the whole job
No muss no fuss no tedious hour of sitting
at lunch Just deposit your coins and you Can
finish lunch in 10 minutes with another 10
for rest and digestion before work resumes
"Of major significance to vending" accord-
INg to Frederick Schuster chief executive of
(Automatic Canteen) the biggest in the busi-
ness "is the changing US eating habit"
His studies show distinct trends toward
snack-type eating by American families with-
each passing year Distinctive different-tasting
meals are fading into memory In their
place: a coin machine to cook and sell plain
hamburger and French fried potatoes
Along with food vending coin washing is
in the cLanztrf US life pattern It is no
longer unusual to see a gent at 2 amin the
laundrornat doing his family:s wash There
are today 25000 of these machines most of
them going 24 hours daily
And according to one of the biggest in the
business a $6000 investment in equipment
bings an operator between $5000 and $10000
yearly
But at the 75-year mark machine vending
is only just beginning The next four years
industry men ey should bring the annual
take to about $6 billion
The high hopes rest on two recent dis-
coveries The first is a biU changer which
can give up to $495 in change from a $5 bill
This means that more expensive items and
even services such as bankmg can be handled
by machine
The second discovery is Europe which user
money and is accustomed to snack-type eating
Getting them used to 20-minute lunches and
standard-tasting food otwht to be a cinch with
the Yankee ingenuity that can change a $5
bill by machine
Do you remember?

At the 1960 fall nationals Curtis
Smith a young bridge teacher
from Austin and the writer fin-
ished second in the open team
and then went on to win the open
pairs from the largest field in
bridge history
While I have won many tour-
naments before (this was my 38th
natiortal title) this is the first
victory that I can ascribe almost
entirely to system
Curtis and I had worked for
several months on what we are
calling the Jacoby-Smith system
It is designed for everyone from
beginner to expert and I am cer-
tain of its superiority over all
other systems that I arm going to
discuss it thoroughly in there
columns
The system as a whole is much
simpler than most American sys-
tems We don't use weak two bids
We don't we most of the other so-
called weak wonder bids that look
good but don't seem to work
The basic feature of the system
Is that we open practically all 12
point hands while in other Amer-
ican systems the minimum open-
ing bid is set at 13 or 14 points
Thus most tables passed today's
hand out at the nationals Curtis
opened the bidding and while be
vas held to one no-trump the plus
was all be needed for a good score

By GEORGE W CRANE PhD MD
C ASE G-4811: Ronald G aged 19 Is 1 student
in psychology
"Dr Crane" he began "I am using your
textbook 'Psychology Applied' at the univer-
sity and I can tell you it is popular with
students
"But some of the -
faculty' object to :14V(
your including a - —
chapter on religion --
and they also dis-
like your veto of --N- -

"In tact one of
our research psy-
chologists is also
very irate because 1
you give a strong 1
Rtc
endorsement to ad- Opos
vertisen and sales- 4
men
"How has your Lempm-mojgommil' 1"98
textbook gained
over 900 college classroom adoptions NvIen so
many psychologists are bitterly opposed to
you?
There are two classes of people—the prac-
tical folks who have a lot of gumption or
"horse sense" vs the theorists
You will find them in all walks of life
whether in farming business or the pulpit
and especially college classrooms
Our teaching psychologists thus fall into
the same two groups The "white rat" ex-
perimenters cloistered and off the beaten path
of real life often turn up their noses at adver-
tising salesmanship etc
But any teacher who is interested in
'applied" science is automatically concerned
with tangible uses of psychology He gladly
assigns newspaper columns as collateral read-
ing plus pertinent magazine articles etc
The snooty "ivory tower" professor dis-
dains newspapers and popular magazines as
contemporary sources of "human relation"
material
Thus a group of university psychologists
recently indicted me for saying "you don't
need to spend seven years and gain a PhD
to be a od applied psychologist"
They would have you believe that the tal-
ented clergyman editor sales manager and
good parent cannot possibly be applied psy-
chologists Just because they lack a PhD
Isn't that silly especially coming from
supposedly scientific professors in Michigan
Ohio and Minnesota?
- They also attacked me for writing for
newspapers for they figure I am "cheapening
the dignified science of psychology" by thus
linking it with newspapers!
In similar vain they indict me for using
two-syllable words! Actually the average
word in the Bible contains but two syllables
And every good newspaperman knows that
the intellectual snobs try to throw their weight
around with polysyllables (five syllable
terms)
It would be a great boon to all branches
of science if such impractical teachers had to
serve an internship under their local news-
paper editor!
He'e mon teach them how to apply their
psychology in the field of communication
(teaching preaching speaking etc)
I
In my college textbook admit that I
affront a lot of "pink" professors for I show
students why this is a republic vs a democ-
racy and I give concrete evidence for the
superiority of this "free enterprise" economy
VI British Socialism and Russian Communism
I also warn the teen-agers about the evils
of tobacco and liquor which most pantywaist
authors are too chicken to attack!
And I give them solid punchy arguments
In support of religion and show why Jesus
was the greatest applied psychologist of all
time
Obviously I get potshotted and dry gulched
by "ivory tower" profs on many campuses
but the real applied psychologists relish my
textbooks
(Always write to Dr Crane in care of
this newspaper enclosing a long 4e stamped
addressed envelope and 20e to cover typing
and printing costs when you send for one of
his booklets)
ditdk 9MIII2LL
I was absolutely fascinated by the sugges-
tion recently offered by a team of scientists to
the man or woman who wants to lose weight
The scientific team which has made a study
of eating habits (overeating habits too appar-
ently) say that psychologically eating in
volves a whole chain of events or stimuli
usually performed in routine fashion So the
way to force yourself to eat less is to strength-
en the chain of events
And here honest-to-goodness are some
suggested ways for taking longer to eat less:
Go to the trouble of putting on some cer-
tain type of clothing before eating (Maybe
It would be a good idea to make pop get into
his hunting clothes or his dinner Jacket before
sitting down to the table And mama might
choose for her eating costume a bathing suit
in the winter and ski clothes in the summer
I guess that's the kind of thing they mean
don't you?)
Holding forkfuls of food for a while be-
tween plate and mouth — and chewing food
longer (Well for a fact if you held hot food
long enough it might not be worth eating
when you did get around to it And you
could carry that idea of chewing food longer
to the point where a mouthful would be a
meal)
Eating specific foods in specific places in
the house (Like spaghetti in a dark closet
maybe? Or ice cream under the sun lamp?
Or pizza in the parlor?)
Control the time of meals rigidly (That's
easy Anyone who comes to dinner late goes
to bed without his supper)
Keep food in relatively inaccessible places
(How about keeping butter in your bureau
drawer and hiding that box of chocolates
under the month's accumulated bills?)
There's one thing about this complicated
system of dieting Even if you don't lose
weight think of what interesting conversation
it would provide
Barbs and briars
Success is what makes'your friends think
you're plain lucky
It's easier to live on less when you can
find more things to live for
High "C" is the key to a lot of annoyance
from the house next door
