The other day at a Senate hearing on noise control legislation, Spong pointed out that "unlike air and water pollution, noise cannot be seen, tasted, smelled or touched." Yes, and if I may carry that line of thought one step further, I would like to observe that unlike noise, water and air pollution cannot be heard. However, these sensory shortcomings need not keep us from recognizing the true nature of pollution. The deeper we get into the subject, the more we come to realize that the U.S. economy is heavily dependent on pollution. Faced with the choice between cleaner air and a factory closing, many communities are saying "better smoke than broke." However, it need not be that way.

For once we come to recognize pollution for what it really is -a great national asset -then we can begin to deal with it in an orderly and sensible manner, the way we handle our other great national assets. Wheat, for example. Everyone recognizes our wheat-producing potential as a great national asset. Yet it wasn't so long ago that surplus wheat was piling up in the streets, overflowing empty buildings and generally cluttering up the environment almost as much as smog is now.

Lamb--Is it possible for a rather fat young lady to carry a baby for nine whole months and not know of her condition until labor pains start and she goes to the hospital emergency room to find out what is wrong and the doctor tells her she is about to have a baby? She is 16. Dear Reader-Yes, I've seen it happen in some young girls not so fat. Often the periods not regular early in life and, if the girl isn't properly informed, it can be quite a all concerned, particularly the poor girl. (NEWSPAPER ENTERPRISE ASSN.) happened had not Billie Sol Estes come along with his ingenious grain storage plan and solved the problem for us. What the country needs now is another Billie Sol who will arise to meet the pollution crisis the way Estes came to the rescue during the wheat emergency.

If the wheat exigency taught us anything, it taught us that great national assets have a tendency to get out of hand. They are nice to have around, but only so long as we aren't overwhelmed by them. Putting it another way, enough of a great national asset is too much. As soon as pollution is recognized as a great national asset, we can start paying people not to produce it. Then at last we will begin to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

For only by placing a value on pollution can we justify paying compensation for its loss. Meanwhile, I'm planning to build a few pollution storage elevators in hopes of leasing them to the government.

EL FLORISTS 305 Cordell 863-7185 Opal Victor Lawton Owners EUREKA SPRINGS, Ark. (AP) Robert A. Vargo, 47, of Yellville was charged here Thursday with disturbing the peace in connection with his dispute with City Hall over a contract for use of the City Auditorium. Vargo, who pleaded innocent to the charge, was being held in jail in lieu of $300 bond. Vargo was arrested while he and his three children were protesting what he called unfair treatment given them over the contract.

Vargo and his children comprise a folk -singing group that has been renting the auditorium for five weeks at $200 per week on a verbal contract with the city council. Mayor Fred Nass says the council has twice notified Vargo that the contract must written. Vargo has st refused to sign a contract, however, because he says a contract drawn up by the council is unfair. Vargo said he would not agree to the contract because it limits the times at which he could use the auditorium. Nass also added that Vargo was behind in his payments to the city.

Japanese Needles Hiroshima, where about 75,000 people died from the explosion of the first atomic bomb dropped on a city in 1945, produces 80 per cent of the needles used in Japan, according to Encyclopedia Britannica. Dear Dr. Lamb I have a constipation problem. I was advised to drink two bottles of beer every night before retiring. I started this a number of years ago and it helped.

Is there any harm in this? Will it cause cancer? Dear Reader--I don't usually recommend the regular use of alcohol. However, there are certain medical indications for it. If two bottles of beer at night have relieved your constipation, that is better than becoming a slave to the laxative habit. Beer should not replace developing a good bowel habit and a proper diet.

Even the most perfectly formed legs and feet need exercise to keep them in shape. Less than perfect legs (and let's face it--that's what most of us have) can be improved with proper exercise. If your theory has been, "exercise is a bore and besides there's no time to do it," then read on. From the land of such leggy beauties as Vanessa Redgrave, Jean Shrimpton, and Julie Christie comes a unique sandal that literally "works while you play." Called the Scholl Exercise Sandal, it is a specially designed beechwood clog with a patented raised bar under the toes which is gripped quite naturally while walking. The exercise this affords the muscles of the feet and legs is known to be enormously beneficial.

What's more, when the sandal is used in conjunction with a set of simple exercises they can help spot-reduce ankles, knees, and thighs to mini skirt proportions. Best of all, they can be done in the office, while waiting for a bus, or watching television. We call the exercises "legometrics." Like isometrics, they are based on the scientific principle that a muscle works hardest when it tenses against a solid object.
