First place went to "Fly Oakland Jets" with 67.

"A close second was the jet pilot Presidential candidate, Barry Goldwater, with 64 bumper stickers," crows Yule, "while Nelson Rockefeller had only 13." And Oakland has a downtown bar that attracts well effeminate patrons and the bartenders likewise, and one bartender, called Ricky, nas been plagued with falling hair which has driven him frantic. Moreover, his hair is a little too red for his liking and it's his habit to trot into Lynn Davis a lady barber' for men at the V. I. P. Shop in the Fox Oakland Building for periodic tints to tone down his hair color.

Display BILL FISET Speaking of painting the Bay Bridge (a guy 'from the east who visited here last week noted that the painters aren't any; farther along than when he crossed the bridge 10 years ago), Jerry Plemmons wonders how come the rubber road marker cones used to channel traffic out of a certain lane, on the bridge have the letters "QRS" stencilled on them. Plemmons, a radio ham, says "QRS" is the telegraph signal for "send slower" or "slow down! And Nancy McKeever Gaines spotted the big sign at the "Garden Show saying "Nursery Associciation." "Could be 'associciation' is the most polite Japanese rendition of the word?" Just like in the movies, Juvenile Court Judge John Purchio listened to the arguments of both mother and father, then got around to a little talk with the 7-year-told and asked the child if he wanted to go with his mother or his father. "I refuse to answer," the kid replied, "on grounds it might incriminate me." illlllf 5 Hill dr lit 4 KJl I CmVW Teacher Mrs. Noga Raz leads second-third graders in a Hebrew song at the BERKELEY An Amazon Indian's effort to make a better blowgun 15 feet long is now on display at the University of California. It got there 0 recently, un scathed after a postal, journey from eastern Peru in what undoubtedly was the world's longest package.

The jet black blower is the latest addition to the massive collection of U.C.'s Lowie Museum of Anthropology. It is the standout in the latest exhibition, "Man the Inventor," which went on display this week for a six month period. They had to build an extra- long case for the Amazon weapon, acquired last winter by a missionary who was learning native languages. AMAZON EXPERT He sent it on to his friend, Mike Harner, an anthropologist here and an expert on Indian life in the Amazon basin. The big weapon used a tiny dart, which has a range of 50 yards.

It is used to strike at tree-dwellers, especially mon keys and birds. It is highly ac curate, silent, and uses inex pensive ammunition. When a Yagua Indian mixes up a batch of poison for use on darts in such a blowgun, he takes curare from the deadly stryenos vine, adds hot peppers and venom from scorpions and other poisonous insects. He boils this down into a syrup and is ready to hunt; The dart, which is made from palm leaf ribs, is notched so that it will break off under the skin if a monkey tries to pull it out. PRIMITIVE TOOLS There are also some peaceful gadgets on display as examples of what man in a fairly primitive state will design for himself, including California Indian baskets.

But the display retains the ap pearance of an ancient armory. For there are bows, arrows, spears," stone axes, firesticks, and all sorts of pointed stones which aren't meant for grinding acorns. The museum, at Bancroft Way and College is open 1 to 5 p.m. Tuesdays through Sundays Admission is free.

"Many new artists will make their appearance and many of the old stand-bys are still here. x' It sounds as if they haven't the heart to leave their friendly prison, and that may not be too far from the truth. The Spring Fine Arts Show opens today and is 'open to the public through May 10.

At a preview yesterday afternoon I noticed Raymond King, a narcotics violator who has exhibited paintings for the three years the shows have. run, has new" entries and at higher price tags. I don't know enough.about art toaWanjTsophisti-cated questions about technique, so I asked him how much money he's made in the prison art exhibits. "About $20,000." That should dispel the old illusion of the late, late show that all men leave prison with a poorly-tailored suit and a $10 bill given them by the warden. 1,000 paintings are on displaythe majority highly professional, and ranging in price from $10 up to one of King's big abstract oils at $1,000.

(The painting is called "Opium," perhaps titled to fit with the price.) Keating, a psychiatrist, says the active art program in Vacaville "definitely helps the inmates become better men" and collectors come to the exhibit from all' across the country. King has been offered a one-man show in New York's foremost private gallery to begin when he goes out on parole in August. Geza deKaplany is in Vacaville but is too mentally disturbed to participate. Spade Cooley, the onetime western band leader, is taking up art and a new exhibitor in the current show is the "Piedmont cat burglar," an inmate the last six'months. It's rather interesting, if you've never been inside a FRIDAY.

now boasts an enrollment of 60 students ranging from kindergarten through the fifth grade. The 60 spend three hours of each day learning to read, write and speak Hebrew. The rest of their school day is spent in a "general studies" program similar to that offered in the Oakland Public Schools. HEBREW AND MUSIC Yesterday, for example, while the first, second and third graders studied Hebrew and Lag Baomer, the children in Mrs. Ora Lee Wachter's fourth and fifth grade class were having a music lesson.

"We're writing a jazz poem," Mrs. Wachter explained. "I play a record, and the children write words to go with the music." Spread across the wall of the room was an elaborate three-dimensional "time chart" depicting California history. "That the state curriculum for this grade level," she explained. MORNING CLASS Rabbi Graudenz explained that he had given the fourth and fifth graders their Hebrew lesson in the morning.

"All of the other classes have Hebrew in the afternoon," he said, "but as principal of the school, I have administrative du ties which make it easier for me to teach in the morning." Each class has a different teacher for Hebrew and General Studies. Even the kindergarten class follows, the General Studies-Hebrew program. As a kin dergarteners attend school all day, from 8:30 to 3:30 p.m. Rabbi Graudenz supervises the Hebrew studies at the school. James Spencer; associate professor of education at Call fornia State College at Hayward Easter for Orthodox Churches Eastern Orthodox Churches of the Eastbay will observe Easter this Sunday.

The elaborate observance begins shortly before midnight tomorrow, Holy Saturday. The entire church is darkened and the priest appears at the holy doors of the sanctuary holding a lighted candle and sings: "Come ye! Receive the light from the Light that knows no night; come ye! Glorify the Christ who is risen from the dead!" Members of the congregation then come forward and light their candles. When they have done this, all go outside the church in a procession where the service of the Resurrection begins. The Gospel, read from the steps outside the church, tells about the myrrh-bearing women. The procession commemorates the act of those who went to the tomb early on Easter morning with sweet spices for the anointing of the body of Jesus.

After singing 'the Easter hymn, "Christ is risen from the dead, by death hath He trampled Death, and upon those in tombs hath He bestowed life!" special verses and petitions are sung. The congregation then- re-enters the church where the remainder of the Easter canon is sung and the Divine Liturgy of the Resurrection is celebrat ed. Eastbay Orthodox Churches conducting Easter services tomorrow night and Sunday are the Greek Orthodox Church of the Ascension, 4700 Lincoln St. George Serbian Orthodox Church, Ninth and Oak Streets, Oakland, and St. John's Russian Orchodox Church, 1900 Essex Berkeley.

Stronger industry support in traffic safe ty, said he was "disturbed be cause I have seen so few repre sentatives from the automobile industry at past safety sessions I- have attended, and because there is such an apparent lack of responsibility in many things they do." Citing automobile advertisements as an example, he said it was "high time the manufacturers drop the speed, glamor and power approach in favor of some down to earth safety talk." Appearing with Sawyer on the program were Gov. Edmund G. Brown, co-host of the meeting with the Sixth Army, Gov, John Love of Colorado, and Sixth Army Commander, Lt. Gen. Frederic J.

Brown. Modern Day School is special consultant for the gen eral studies. The school is operating tem porarily in quarters provided by Temple Beth Abraham at 330 Euclid Ave. But plans are underway for larger facilities be-causea sixth grade will be add ed next year. Despite the emphasis on tra ditional Judaism, Rabbi Grau denz said the school is not a parochial school.

BROAD SPECTRUM "We are not associated with any denominational or rabbinical group. We are interested in dissemi nating a deep and creative understanding of classical as' well as modern day Judaism." Its a non-profit school, and scholarships are provided for any Jewish child who cannot afford to pay tuition. During May-and Junie, the school's board of directors will conduct a double edged program to sign up new students and raise funds to expand into its own facilities.

The group including Miss Erna Harris of Oakland went to Russia April 13 for discussions on war and peace with Soviet women. Dr. Orlie Pell of Flemington, N.J., former president of the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom, reported that all of the talks were conducted in a frank and friendly manner. "While nothing less than general and complete disarmament must be the goal, we will welcome any measures for partial disarmament which can be agreed Upon as interim steps," she said.

Her report also declared the group believed that it is necessary for nations of different political and social systems to develop "side by side without war and with increasing cooperation." She spoke at a reception given the group yesterday by the two organizations sponsoring the trip, the Women's International League for Peace. and Freedom and the Jane Addams Peace Association. Others of the touring group present were Mrs. Luther Foster, wife of the president of Tuskegee Institute; Dr. Dorothy Hutchinson of Jamestown, Mrs.

Annalee Stewart of Washington, D.C.; Mrs. Mildred Scott Olmsted, Rose Valley, Pa. and Mrs. Phyllis Sanders Cleveland, Ohio. Rapid Growth Rate, Bamboo can grow as much as modern prison, to drive" up stamped with invisible ink By DICK RICCA Tribune Education Writer The story Mrs.

Sarah Shar- yon's class read dealt with the holiday of Lag Baomer. In Mrs. Noga Raz's second and third grade class, the children clapped their hands and sang a song about the same holiday. The words in the story and the words of the song were both in Hebrew. Hebrew plays an important part in the curriculum of the Modern Day School.

So 'does Lag Baomer. Rabbi Samuel Graudenz, principal of the school, explained, that "Lag is a tradi tional Jewish holiday. RELIGIOUS EVENT "It is the 33rd day in the counting of the days between Passover and Pentecost, he explained. It commemorates the revolt of Bar Kochba against the Rom an occupation of Israel 130 A.D. "It also honors Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai who saved the study of the Bible in Israel after it had been forbidden by the Romans under penalty of death.

"The old rabbi hid a cave, Rabbi Graudenz said, "and his students came to him secretly." In a very real sense, the cul- ture.y traditions and knowledge preserved by Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai are, the reason for the existence of the Modern Day School. PROGRAM GOALS The school's program is de signed to provide American Jew ish children with a strong founding in the religion, culture and history of Judaism, along with the traditional "Three R's" of American Public Education.

Nevada Gov. Grant Sawyer today called on the automotive industry for stronger support of traffic safety programs and a de-emphasis on speed, power and glamor." His remarks were delivered at the opening of a two-day Western States Military-Civilian traffic meeting at the Presidio in San Francisco.
