Moon Paint
Job Costly
By HENRY McLEMORE
The congressman of the week,
if not, indeed, the congressman
of the fortnight, is James G.
Fulton.
While others of his set are
screening first, second and third
cousins for office jobs, and mail-
ing out seeds, this Republican
from Pennsylvania has his eyes
fixed on the moon as rigidly ae
the Palomar telescope.
"If the Russians were to turn
the moon red,” he bluntly asked
he head counsel of the House
Space Committee, "do we have
the right to put a blue and white
band around it and make it red,
white and blue?”
THAT'S AN important question,
and one that should have been
asked long before this. The an-
swer Mr. Fulton received must
have been a shock to him, for it
certainly was to me.
Legal counsel did not know our
handing rights: couldn’t say
whether international law permit-
ted us the right to decorate the
moon with bunting. the way we
do box seats on ths opening day
of baseball, or not.
This would indicate that coun-
sel hasn’t been worrying much
over the banding question. If this
is true, why? To have the moon,
ol all things, shining down bright
red, with not a touch of our col-
ors showing, would be more than

What is callixylon? RUM is not sure. We didn’t
find the word or name in the big or little dictionary,
up with and didn't dig any deeper. Callixylon was not true wood
but was a fibrous material with nodes, swells or knots
faintly similar to those of a cornstalk. This specimen
had no specific name until long after F itts found it. An
authority from Michigan university studied the frag-
ments in 1934 and named it "callixylon whitenaum."

•
In our effort to direct the attention of Oklahoma
people to unusual sights and things in the state well
worth going to see we come again to the giant callixy-
lon which stands near the main entrance to the East
Central state college in Ada. It is accepted as Oklaho-
ma's oldest fossil tree, and none larger has been found
anywhere else in the world.

This huge petrified stump made news in the 1920‛s
when it was discovered by the late John Fitts, a geolo-
gist. in the Pontotoc hills 15 miles southeast of Ada. It
made more news in 1935 when it was presented to the
college by Fitts, and it has received feature and scien-
tific attention at times since then. But almost a new
generation has appeared
on the scene since, so we
