"If you can get ice in your buckets and an icicle on your spile every morning, that's sugar makin' weather," declared John Baudendistel, veteran Franklin county syrup maker.

Baudendistel lives on a 167- acre farm in Bath township, bought by his grandfather shortly after he returned from the Civil War. The farm always 1 has been in the family and the trees now tapped are second generation sugar maple trees. The virgin hard maples that his father and grandfather tapped started to die and were cut off in the 1930's. This makes the fourth year Baudendistel has tapped his young sugar-bush. He said he stopped at a neighbor's a few years ago and, after a whiff of the sweet smell of boiling sugar water hit him, he couldn't get i the notion of making syrup again out of his head.

The old evaporator which had been used in the woods camp long ago had rusted down and the frame sold for scrap. However, he still had the pans. So, with boiler plate and brick he built a new and smaller furnace and was ready for the sap to start running in the spring of 1958. "Bum Year" "This is just a bum year all the way around," he commented. ground thawed out and it thawed out solid.

It should be so muddy that you can hardly get around. This year's sap is not as sweet as usual either," he said. Some years you can get a gallon of syrup from 35 gallons of sap. But this year, as near as Baudendistel could figure, it was taking 50 gallons of sugar water 1 to boil down to a gallon maple syrup. When the weather warms up, the trees stop running and then the rain begins.

This season, Baudendistel has had to empty rain water from the buckets three times three days in a row, he complained. The Bath farmer has 60 trees tapped this year and tries to make enough syrup for his own use every year. Du to the short season, he expects to end up with about 10 gallons of the finished product. The farmer added that he has 17 ewes having lambs now. Ten sows will farrow in April which will make them a little late, but that way the pigs aren't coming when the sap is running, he said with a grin.

The sugar water is dipped from the tanks and poured through a strainer from which it flows slowly into the boiling sap in the pan at the far right. As the sap is boiled, it becomes more dense and moves toward the pan at the left through siphons. -Palladium-Item Photos At the end of the operation, all of the syrup will be in the pan at the left.

Sees Hopeful Signs In Peru's Struggle Against Communism; Many Problems Exist By William L. Ryan LIMA, Peru (AP)-A struggle between democracy and dictatorship is going on in much of South America. Decisive battles in this struggle can be won or lost in Peru. Some signs are hopeful. Among others, business representatives indicate rising confidence that Peru's conservative-minded government can check the combined drive of Castroism and communism.

There are several big ifs. The if of self-reform at the top of Peru's social-economic ladder is not the least of these. Prime Minister Pedro Beltran has attacked forcefully some of Peru's major problems and has impressed many a North American. As a result, there are strong indications U. S.

investments, now at about $800-million mark, will 1 be stepped up. One source reports the climate for investment seems better in Peru than in most other American countries, despite pressure Artery Replacement Techniques To Reduce Heart Disease Deaths NEW ORLEANS (AP)-A new surgical technique, now in its last stage of development, may substantially reduce the death rate from heart disease, a Detroit, pathologist said Monday. Dr. Sylvester E. Gould said surgeons at Wayne State university in Detroit are experimenting in replacing sections of major arteries to the heart where a blockage occurs.

Established surgical procedure, he said, is to treat coronaries by stimulating formations at the ends of arteries to reduce such blockages. Dr. Gould was a featured speaker Monday at the 24th meeting of the New Orleans Graduate Medical assembly. "It seems to me the desirable point of attack is to remove the place of obstruction," he said. "We are trying it now." "Since you can actually pinpoint the sites of obstruction under X-ray, we can resect the portions of obstruction, actually put in new tubing," he said.

"Some of it may be transplanted, but it could be plastic tubing." Parts Replacement Possible He said advances in treatment of heart disease have placed within the realm of possibility the replacement of parts of the heart destroyed in a coronary attack. Another speaker, Dr. Thomas T. Jones of Durham, N. said he believes it wrong to use medical science to prolong the lives of persons in the last stages of incurable diseases.

Dr. Jones said his observations deal only with those "in the last experience of some terminal illness." -AP Wirephoto The Aerocar, a four-wheeled, two-place, pusher-type vehicle, which can be converted from plane to car over Fort Worth. DALLAS, Tex. (UPI) -Step up and sign on the dotted line and get your order in for the newest thing in American driving, a flying automobile. The vehicle-airplane is due to be placed on sale to public this summer be a Texan firm, Aerocar International, Inc.

Aerocar International and Temco Missiles and Aircraft of Dallas announced Tuesday they have signed contracts calling for the commercial production of the flying auto, and orders now are being taken. Roy Hyde, president of the Fort Worth-based Aerocar International, said he expects to have enough orders within 90 days to justify tooling for production. The contract between Aerocar and Temco Missiles, a division of Ling-Temco Electronics, provides that sufficient orders to justify tooling must be obtained by July 1 before production can begin. "As a result of market studies carried out by Hyde said, "we believe we will have enough orders to enable us to start actual production before the July deadline."

The brief order gave no reason for the high court's refusal to hear arguments in the case. The action left standing jail sentences and fines levied against the sitin participants. The Tallahassee appeal had been viewed as a possible opportunity, for precedent the high in the court sit-in to disturbances which have flared the south. Still pending is a request for Supreme court consideration of three sit-in appeals from Baton Rouge, La.

Damage was unofficially estimated as high as $200,000.

Al Chamberlain, caretaker, said the fire either started in the kitchen, or the adjoining furnace room. Mrs. Charles Davidson, operator of the Country Club Motel nearby, noticed the fire and called in the alarm. Firemen from five surrounding communities were unable to bring the blaze under control and by midnight only the two chimneys at either end remained standing. The club, with a membership of 1,400 Elks and 300 golfing members, had been due to open March 25 after being closed during the winters.

The Tallahassee cases stemmed from two separate demonstrations at an F. W. Woolworth 5 10 cent store in 1960.

The mayor personally instructed police in both instances to arrest the students after they ignored his order to leave the store. The sit-inners, who said the store sold to Negroes in all departments except the lunch counter, drew fines of $300 or 60-day jail sentences. The Leon county Circuit court upheld the convictions. In their appeal, attorneys for the students argued that no arm of the state government may use its power to racial discrimination on behalf of a private party. They cited a 1948 Supreme court decision outlawing real estate racial covenants.

The Tallahassee demonstrators contended that in their case the arrests were demanded by third persons, including the mayor, rather than the store itself. There are more than 100 islands in the Shetlands and only about a quarter of these are inhabited. He stressed that his views differ distinctly from those who espouse euthanasia or mercy killing. "Euthanasa hastens death, and that is against everything fine in our culture," he said. "But," he added, "many of us believe we have no right to interfere with the act of dying by unnaturally staving off a death which is coming anyway." Seniors At Economy Plan Talent Show ECONOMY.

Stormy Weather Ahead There is stormy weather ahead in 1 Peru's politics. If the government rides it out, constitutional forces will have won an important battle.

But win or lose, more than Peru's future alone is at stake. Beltran adopted unpopular measures, made them stick, created confidence in his government. He froze wages but not prices; eliminated certain subsidies to producers, allowed a rise in oil prices which had been among the world's lowest, called a halt to indiscriminate borrowing, headed the nation toward a free economy. The sol, Peru's currency, is strong. Prices are high but stable.

Exports are up. The Communist-Castroist combine plotted against all this. provided of the Comm After documentary was proof, troist plotting, Beltran last December threw out Cuba's diplomats and agents, broke relations with Havana, and crippled the extremists' operation. But Peru still has a long road to travel. Not the least of its problems is strong resistance at the top levels of Peruvian society toward needed reforms.

This resistance in itself has contributed to agitation among groups in which Castroism and communism are most influential, including intellectuals and students. Same Old Story Peru's problems are a dreary repetition of the old story in much of the continent: widespread poverty amidst riches, feudal habits of land ownership, lack of accommodation with the mid-20th century among the wealthy class. Half of Peru's population of about 12 million is made up of Indians, 90 per cent of them illiterate, many unable even to speak Spanish, the national language. They do not participate much in the country's political life. New elections are coming up in 1962 for a president to succeed aristocratic Manuel Prado, 70.

They will be held against a background of widespread fever for agrarian reform and for an attack on Peru's housing and other economic problems. The realization of these problems reaches the lowest economic level in the country. GREATER PICTURE PICK-UP POWER where you need it in your extra-tough reception area.
