Our Belter Self
J*
&
One quality too many Oklahomans—Creek countians included—
seem to lack is pride.
Not pride in the sense of inordinate self-esteem, but in the
sense of justified self-respect.
Perhaps it is a carry-over from the Dust Bowl image, a failure
to march full step into the more affluent era. Whatever it is,
far too many seem willing to settle for being less than what
they could be.
Thus houses that could be cared for go unpainted and run-
down. Business establishments which could, if someone cared
enough, be bright, sparkling and attractive languish instead,
dull, cluttered and uninviting.
Weeds grow unchecked, into unattended eyesores and sanitary
hazards. Litter abounds.
It isn’t surprising, then that some folks who don’t even care
about their own surroundings would not care about their govern-
ment’s physical facilities.
But for those who realize government is no more than a
reflection of the people it serves, the matter of such things as
a courthoue becomes a matter of pride.
If Creek countians are content to be less than they could be;
satisfied with a courthouse more reminescent of the spit-and-
whittle days than promising of a new era, then it shall be thus.
But it needn’t be.
By voting YES in Tuesday’s bond election fora new courthouse,
Creek county can say it isn’t satisfied with being what it was
30 or 50 years ago. It can say it is ready to be its better self.

Tharp Talk

THARP
THE LOCAL beanery came
up with a good one yesterday.
A customer complained
about the smallness of the
servings and they told him
it was an optical illusion-
that the place had been en-
larged and it made the por-
tions look smaller.
YOU PROBABLY heard
about the four categories they
put modern-day skirts in —
mini, maxi, micro, and “here
come de judge.”
WHICH reminds us — down
at the beach there seems to
be more girl per girl than ever
before.
WISH THEY’D make up their
mind. Those people who last
year were advising young people
not to trust anyone over 30
have changed it this year to
anyone over 31.
THE OFFICE Lush didn’t
come to work yesterday. He
claimed he couldn’t get his head
through the bedroom door,
THE CLOD’S table manners
are atrocious.
He started to sip his coffee
at the snack bar the other day
and two couples got up to dance.
SOME scientists think the ABM
is not the most practical idea
in the world and Thor Heyer-
dahl demonstrated that much the
same can be said of reed boats.
THE CLOD said he woke up
this morning with the strangest
feeling. He didn’t seem to care
whether Joe Namath played foot-
ball.
THE BLONDE said men do
better than women when it
come to sticking to a diet and
the reason is that women don’t
have wives to nag them.
A MIDGET A baseballer was
overheard the other day: “Sure
I know that winning isn’t every-
thing but how can I make my
mother understand.”
YOUR HEALTH AND YOU

Hearing In Relation
To The Spine
Have you experienced an occasional ringing or
buzzing in your ears? Has this become regular enough
that it interfers with your hearing yet? When the hear-
ing organs begin to fail, deafness may follow One of
the most common causes is called nerve deafness.
The primary cause of these symptoms arises from
a pinche^J nerve that SHOULD BE controlling the hear-
ing organs and surrounding tissues Most cases of hear-
ing difficulties are associated with a pinched nerve in
the spine and chiropractors work specifically with the
spine All people who have difficulty in hearing need
chiropractic care.
Chiropractic x-ray analysis and spinal examination
reveal even the most minute nerve pinch Early detec-
tion allows more effective care and prevention of pro-
gressive nerve pressure and increased symptoms. See
your local chiropractor first!

Handbook
By GEORGE MAYNARD •
County Extension Director
Ray Zimmerman, Tulsa County
horticulturiest, is one of the
leading authorities in Oklahoma
on tomato production. Today I
have asked Ray to answer some
of the common questions asked
on tomato production.
Question: The bottom leaves of
my tomato
plants are
getting small
round brown
spots, then be-
c o m e yellow
and die:
Answer: The
wet weather of
spring has in-
creased leaf
disease problems. This is Sep-
toria leaf spot. Remove the
affected leaves, dispose of them
and spray the plants regularly
each week during the rainy sea-
son with two tablespoons of
Maneb per gallon on a fixed
copper fungicide. These sprays
also help to control soft rots
of fruits.
Question: The bottom leaves of
my tomatores are turning yellow
then dying. Now branches are
beginning to wilt here and there
on the plant. I cut off one of
the plants and looked at the cut
end and found a brown colored
ring right under the outside bark.
What can I do?
Answer: There is nothing you
can do at this time. This is the
disease called Fusarium wilt.
It is caused by a fungus which
lives in the soil for a very long
time. This wilt fUngus increases
when the temperature reaches 80
to 90 degrees fahrenheit. It
enters through the root and clogs
the water conducting vessels.
This stops the water supply to
the plant and wilting and death
is the result. However, har-
vest as much fruit as possible
before they die. Next year
plant your tomatoes in a new
location in which tomatoes have
not been grown and hope the wilt
fungus is not present in the new
location.
Question: My tomato plants
look healthy and have good green
color but the older leaves are
rolling up and appear lethery.
What’s causing this?
Answer: Leaf roll of tomatoes
frequently show up where the
soil is heavily watered and is
poorly drained also when plants
are pruned too severely. The
older leaves roll upward and
continuous until the margin of
the leaflets touch or even over-
lap each other. The leaves are
firm and leathery. The growth
of the plants is not checked and
the plants produce a normal
fruit crop so don’t worry about
it.
Question: My tomato plants are
large and growing fast but the
blossoms keep falling off. How
can I stop this?
Answer: Soils with too much
nitrogen will make plants grow
too rapidly or succulent. It
caused the carbohydrate-nitro-
gen ratio to get out of balance.
Immature growth causes blos-
som shedding before the polina-
tion process is completed. Try
mixing into the soil 2 pounds of
0-20-0 fertilizer (Super phos-
phate) per 100 square feet. Blos-
som loss is also sometimes
caused when plants are subjected
to temperatures over 90degrees
F., with hot dry wind. Beat the
hot weather by planting earlier
varieties earlier.
Question: Yesterday I was
looking at my large tomato fruits
and noticed the worm holes were
in the largest fruits. What causes
this and how do I stop it?
Answer: This is caused by the
tomato fruitworm. This is the
same worm as the corn ear-
worm and cotton boll worm.
A moth lays eggs on the tomato
leaf. This egg hatches into a
small worm which feeds on the
leaves for a while then starts
attacking the tomato fruits. One
worm can damage four or five
or more fruits. They are dif-
ficult to see on the leaf because
color blends with the green leaf
color and they eat underneath
the leaf. Spray the plants with
Sevin 50 percent at the rate of
2 tablespoons per gallon of water.
Spray three times at two week
intervals starting when the fruit
is about \ inch in diameter. On
small plantings a thorough
search of the plants can elimin-
ate many of these pests. By
the way, Sevin is a good in-
secticide for lots of insect prob-
lems. The waiting period for
eating Sevin sprayed crops is
usually one day. But of course,
read the directions on the con-
tainer carefully and follow them.
A tablespoon of Maneb fungicide
along with the Sevin will stop a
lot of leaf diseases.
While you’re spraying put in
some Kel thane to kill the red
spider. It’s that small mite
which sucks the juices from the
plant.

What Other State Editors Say...
THE OKLAHOMA Education Association has its work cut
out for it in trying to land on one candidate for Governor and put
a lot of money in his campaign.
They absolutely HAVE to pick right.
Because if they’re wrong they can expect to get nothing,
absolutely nothing, out of the next governor. A Governor
would be a damn fool if he didn’t do everything possible to
cut them down to size if he should win against big OEA cash.
So, the OEA can not holler ouch if this happens to them.
They have been in this business long enough to know the rules
of the game.
On the other hand, if they DON’T help a man they believe to
be friendly to education, the OEA is missing a bet, too.
In the past, many OEA leaders have informally agreed on
a candidate and they have tried to put out the word. But the
teachers have never, absolutely never, gone along with any
degree of agreement and help to a candidate. They split up
and very few of them do anything at all.
L-V” Raising money to give to a candidate is one tangible way
*° really help him. And it’s time the OEA really helped all
r-"-- •>TT out. it they can t deliver wooers and voters, maybe they an
deliver cash.

Then there’s always the risk of the OEA support backfiring
and hurting a candidate more with the public than it helps
them.
School teachers are not getting enough money. But not many
people agree with that. Since teacher’s pay is above the average
income of other Oklahomans, the friends and neighbors of
teachers who make less, aren’t too enthusiastic about paying
for a teacher raise.
There are ten times as many voters making less income than
there are teachers.

OC School
Plan Hit
OKLAHOMA CITY (UPI)-
A group of Oklahoma City
school patrons plan to file an
appeal early next week against
U. S. Dist. Judge Luther Bo-
hanon’s acceptance of an inter-
im school integration plan.
George Guysi, an attorney
for the group of Belle Isle pa-
trons, whose children were
drawn into a new integrated
district by the plan, said that
shifting children from a nearby
school to one further away sim-
ply because they were white
was itself a form of discrimi-
nation.
The school board’s temporary
plan was filed with Bohanon
Friday, on his orders Tuesday
when he struck down their ma-
jor desegregation outline drawn
up to meet his 1965 integration
order.
Trucking
Rate Hiked
OKLAHOMA CITY (UPI)-
Oklahoma truckers got a raise
in rates Friday from the state
corporation commission, in-
cluding a boost in pickup and
delivery service, which truck-
ers said was their most costly
expense.
The commission approved a
4 per cent general increase in
freight truck rates, rather than
the increases of from 6 to 15
per cent asked for various types
of hauling.
The commission also author-
ized a minimum charge of $4
per single shipment.
The rate for pickup and deliv-
ery rates increased from 5
cents per 100 pounds to 20
cents.
blacks do flee one form of dis-
crimination for another —
thev run from what domination
into the arms of a gang dic-
tator.
Perhaps the domination com-
plex is too deeply rooted to be
overcome in one century.
Similarly, in demanding that
government take care of them,
some blacks are still behaving
like slaves.
If, instead of doing for them-
selves, able humans seek hous-
ing, food and care all at some-
body else’s expense, they are not
being held back— they are holding
themselves back. Demanding
security, refusing to accept
opportunity, they are refusing
emancipation.
Blacks who do work their way
out of the ghetto and into posi-
tions of independence and
prominence prove it can be done.
Others who could— convince
themselves they can’t.
First they were slaves of the
whites; then they became slaves
of their own feelings; now some
are in danger of being enslaved
by other blacks.
Opportunists have been using
the domination complex, capi-
talizing on it, dominating. . .
Jean and Larry Powell, a young
Negro couple, were members of
the Black Panthers when they
believed its commitment was to
improve Negro living conditions.
They quit when they saw the
Panthers served only to build
the power and wealth of its own
leaders.
Mrs. Powell says, “Teen-age
boys are sent on murder
missions; a lot of teen-age girls
are used by Panther leaders for
their own satisfaction.”
The NAACP, in its publication
“The Crisis,” said, "Negroes
must speak out against black mili-
tants and extremists. . .unless
the entire race may be branded
as hatemongers, segregation-
ists, advocates of violence and
worse.”
Negro Judge Albert Murry of
New York Criminal Court, lash-
ing out at self-appointed pro-
tectors of black people, said,
“This country is worse off to-
day than it was a year ago be-
cause you have polarized the
situation. You are not what I
want and you are not what this
country needs!”
Justice Thurgood Marshall, the
first Negro member of the U.S.
Supreme Court, says Negroes
under pressure by militants
should “stand up and say, ‘Look
man, don’t tell me I have to do
what you want me to do just be-
cause you said it!”’
Justice Marshall says this is
the philosophy (superiority)
which Negroes have been fight-
ing for a long time—“We can’t
let someone take over where
we have already pushed others
out.”
