Would you please te II me how many calories one burns while jumping on a trampoline? Mrs. W.

Los Alamos A. Not as many as one might think because the trampline gives one lots of help, says Dr. Hemming Atterbom, director of the human performance lab at the University of New Mexico. He estimates one would burn up about three calories a minute on a trampoline since it's somewhat comparable to the rope skipping (3 calories per minute) or to a gymnastics workout (four per minute). The three calories per minute puts the trampoline in the same class of activities as making beds, shining shoes, playing volleyball or other similar activities.

Q. I want to find the story of the little Dutch boy who kept bis finger in the dike in Holland. Any ideas? J.J. A. The Public Library's Children's Room at the main branch has a copy of it in Sodonie Gruenberg's "Favorite Stories." And if you can find someone who has a set of the old "My Book House Series," it is in volume two as "Boy Hero from Haarlam." Being a legend instead of a true story, it has come down under many titles "Leak in the "Little Hero of Haarlam," Dutch Boy and the "Little Hero of Haarlam," and can be found in many anthologies or collections of stories.

Q. I have a kerosene lamp, the old-fashioned kind, which we Intend to use. I am wondering if its sits next to a window could there be any danger of its igniting from the rajs of the sun and heated glass? Mrs. J. U.K.

A. It would not ignite from heated glass but there is a possiblity that a spark might touch off the vapors that could come from the heated kerosene thus causing an explosion, says Dr. Guido Daub, UNM chemistry professor. He suggests that if you are addicted to cigarets or cigars that you keep your distance from a kerosene lamp that is unusually hot. The evaporation process could cause a dangerous situation.

Q. Are there any handball courts In Albuquerque for public use? Mrs. J. II. K.

A. They are not plentiful enough to say they are on every corner but there are a couple of indoor courts at the downtown YMCA where non-members can play on a $1 a day basis. The first city public handball courts up near the sports complex on Stadium Boulevard are due to be ready about mid-July. They will be outdoor courts. The University of New Mexico has handball courts for students and faculty families and there are some private clubs with handball courts.

Q. Could you please tell me if the Presbyterian Hospital is operated by the Presbyterian Churrh? I have heard that it is operated by the state and that the church pays the state for use of the name. S.L.Y. A. The Presbyterian Hospital belongs to the New Mexico Synod of the Presbyterian Church of America.

Thus the NMSPCA is a regional organization that operates the hospital on fees charged Die patients and on funds given by individuals and firms. Technically the hospital is not run by the Presbyterian Church. Q. On June 17, we received a special delivery letter. Our mail comes through Station G.

All the stamps had obviously been steamed off the letter. Isn't this against the law? W. and M. K. A.

Any sort of tampering with the mails, such as removing stamps, shore is illegal, says William Kuntz, assistant superintendent of Station G. Airmail delivered "special delivery" does not go through the Post Office branch stations. The stamps could have been removed at any station and by anyone who handled the letter between Chicago and Albuquerque. Kuntz said he helped you start an inquiry through the postal inspector. Q.

I know I'm not to expect to be able to eat any asparagus the first year it is planted but do I simply let it grow all season or do I cut it down at any certain time? B. M. A. You just let it grow all season and go to seed, says Jim Sais, Bernalillo County agent in charge of 4-H. You can remove the dead stalks after they've been killed by winter weather.

pci Cioateue, FTC Report APRIL 72. for your car. GOLD office at Farmington. Keith Dotson, viiuujJiail, ifri Thniin ir animate to tne commission, said; SANTA FE CP) The Santa Fe Airport Action Committee was told it should consider donating the city's empty airport to the state legislature, if the legislature will take it. Committee member Bob White, the state aviation director, offered the idea as one of four avenues the city might take to get commercial air ser vice restored.

White also told the com-! mittee's first meeting Monday tnat tne city might as well ac cepi me lact that "Were is nothing you can do to bring back airline service immediately." Frontier Airlines and Texas International both suspended service to the Capital City June 24 because of runway conditions. The committee was named by Mayor Joseph Valdes, who is chairman of the committee, last Wednesday to explore ways to raise funds and repair the airport. White told the committee it fhould consider all possibilities before deciding on any action, since a nine-month waiting period is required before federal money could be made available. Among possible steps the commission might take, White said, is to notify the airlines that the city will apply for federal aid and beein the waiting period. I citv; He also suggested the ChecK on the progress of legislation currently pending in u.o.

ungress wnicn would increase the federal share of airport renovation costs. Another possible source of revenue might be a revenue or general obligation bond issue like the one city voters turned down last year, White said. And finally, White suggested the committee poll members of the state legislature on whether they would favor "accentina a donation of the airport." He said Frontier Airlines has indicated it will return if present runwavs are satisfactorily repaired and a commitment for a new runway made. But acting City Manager Tom Ortiz said he was informed by Texas International the airline "will go back only if the runways are reconstructed." Texas International recently closed its office in Santa Fe and transferred its employes there to Albuquerque. The committee agreed to hold its next meeting at the convenience of representatives of Texas International and Frontier and the Airline Pilots Assn.

Location Fixed For Land Soils SANTA FE AP) Lawsuits Involving land must be tried in the county where the land is located, the New Mexico Supreme Court said. The high court ruling reversed a Valencia County judgement determining the legal ownership of the Juan Tafoya Land Grant. The board of directors of the Tafoya Land Grant had brought suit against Sarafin Baca and 18 other persons to settle the legal ownership. The Valencia County also approved proposed rules for governing the grant. But Baca appealed to the Supreme Court, contending the Valencia County court did not have any jurisdiction in the case.

Baca claimed all the land to which title clearance was sought was located in Sandoval and McKinley counties, and none of it in Valencia County, where the case was tried. The Supreme Court agreed the Valencia County court had no jurisdiction since state law-requires that suits involving land be brought in the county where the land is located. The Supreme Court directed the Valencia County court io dismiss the suit, but left the way open for a new suit to be filed in the proper county. 1 ii the i the meetmf lnof Santa Fe.

Dotson said this will leave a Farmington staff of about 11 persons. The action by the governors came on a suggestion by Gov.

Bruce King of New Mexico that the office continue under Larson at least until the September commission meeting. DOTSON SAID some of the Farmington work load, if necessary, will be shifted the New Mexico State Planning Office and its counterparts in the three other states Arizona, Colorado and Utah. Be.sides the regional office at Farmington and the state Four Corners staff, the commission also has a federal staff in Washington and Albuquerque. Former New Mexico Planning Officer Arthur Ortiz has offices in Albuquerque and is directly responsible to the federal co-chairman of the commissiion, Stan Womer, in Washington, D.C. Los Alamos Loses Water Well Pump Journal Special LOS ALAMOS The electric motor of one of Los Alamos' largest water-wells has burned out and city residents have been asked to curtail their use of water for at least the next week.

The city has asked residents to avoid all waste and to only water lawns in the morning and evening when evaporation is lowest. Watering should be by hand, the city said. The water-well is responsible for 15 per cent of the city's total supply and normally pumps at the rate of 1300 gallons per minute. that the 202-acre northern portion, which it recently zoned for wilderness, be released to the county.
