It had spurted fire at McCallum as he roared his F100 Super Sabre in for a bombing run over the Lai Khe rubber plantations. His unit, the 416th Tactical Fighter Squadron based at Tan Son Nhut Airport, had scrambled when the "Black Lions" battalion from the U.S. 1st Infantry Division came under heavy Viet Cong attack. McCallum was on his first bomb run seven minutes later. It was against Viet Cong moving across an open field.

Morton. Dave Brown, of Morton, Red' There is a crying need for "paternity" clothing for fat men, attractive and intelligently designed smocks and jack-eU which allow a potbelly the degree of privacy it deserves.

If this strikes you as lopsided thinking consider the fact that for decades clothing manufacturers have been turning out special "maternity" outfits for expectant mothers. In my opinion these maternity things are better looking than ordinary run of the mill clothes for women. The colors concealing costume, a kind of fat man's uniform. There is nothing basically effeminate about a smock. Dutch men have realized this from the very beginnings of smockery, possibly because they are potty types.

As-1 recall even the brave little boy who stuck his fingpr in the dyke was depicted by illustrators as having worn a smock. In any case the smock for fat Americans could be imprinted with masculine figures in instances where the ma-terial was not of solid color; no butterflies or violets or anything like FOREST The rehabilitation of Scott County tornado victims is under way even as many grieved people took time out to bury their dead on Sunday. The American Red Cross set Cross Disaster chairman for sit down today and write your favorite clothing manufacturer. A coordinated effort is of extreme importance and if we take positive and intelligent action there is no reason why we shouldn't have our smock suits for next Fall.

NASA officials said that PICAYUNE As part of preparations now under way for impending static rocket firings at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Mississippi Test Facility, officials announced today that starting March 21 no one will be permitted to enter the site located on old State highway 43 without a badge or bumper decal. Test operations require the use of large amounts of rocket propellants and other high explosive gases such as liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen. plans are in progress for the Corps of Engineers to badge and decal all Corps contractor personnel at MTF.

Arrangements have been made to issue passes to frequent visitors doing official business on the site.

SPEC1 they minimize it, and this same merciful treatment is needed for die male whose central physique is mushy. There are few things more dismaying to a potbellied man than the business of trying to hold in a stomach that for one reason or another has gotten out of control. I speak from first hand experience in this matter. Holding a potbelly for extended periods of time can and will cause severe cramping the bends and worse; and further, if a potbelly is of the first rank it cannot be restrained with any degree of success. Perhaps the most discouraging thing about bona fide potbellies is they are diet resit-ant.

A friend of mine who lost 80 pounds over a period of years retained his pot. It is not as targe as it was, but in proportion to the remainder of his body the thing is as protruber-ant as ever. If anything a stomach of this kind looks crazier on a skinny man than on a plump or fat one. Another friend who combined both diet and exercise to vanquish a pot wound up with double hernia and a fiercely expensive operation. During convalescence he regained the weight and was instructed to give up stomach exercises, the longshot of it being that what was once a mere pot is now a tub and expanding daily.

The new GI Bill provides education and training programs generally patterned after the highly successful GI Bills of World War and the Korean Conflict. Rep. Walker was a strong supporter of the bill. The Congressman pointed out that in the first year alone, over 600 veterans are expected to take advantage of the educational benefits, according to statistics from the Veterans This durable dinnervvare with delicate, colorful designs looks like fine china, but resists chipping, cracking, peeling.

Years ago when a fat man IJH. ill i JUf. was considered to be "substantial" or "robust" and not a freak, and people felt genuinely sorry for the skinny ones, there was no need for paternity clothes.
