I've never forgotten this." Doug, 17, just finished his junior year at high school. He presently plans to 6tudy farming and conservation in college, his pet project being pollution control in rivers and streams.

When asked by a reporter what his father had contributed most to his life, Doug answered: "Dad taught me to study hard. And I'm trying." "There is no question but that our children are aware of their responsibility and Inheritance as a result of their father's political career," says Mrs. Humphrey. "I'm proud to say, though, that I don't remember any of them ever taking advantage of their father's name or position to seek special privileges. "In fact, more often than not, I find them working hard to remain in the background." Until recently it was generally believed that all the so-called "deaf" could not be helped by wearable electronic amplification.

But new found knowledge from Zenith Research now proves that its "Vocalizer" will not only help many of the deaf to learn to hear, but just as important, they can now learn to speak. It was originally thought that all the "deaf" had no usable residual hear ing, and therefore none of them could be helped by amplified sound. But we now know that many profoundly deaf, persons actually do have some usable hearing. Zenith's new "Vocalizer" now reaches this residual hearing in many cases. Research shows that many children so severely deaf they have never spoken intelligibly, can now hear and develop language.

Truly a heart-warming break-through for many of the profoundly deaf who thought their problem was beyond help. FOR COMPLETE DETAILS AND REVEALING FACTS, CALL OR SEE Santa Cruz county was well represented in the class of 1120 students who graduated from Cal Poly this week. The total represented 52 California counties, 42 states and 35 foreign nations. Topping the list from Santa Cruz was George Paul Gabbert, 122 Hugus court, with a masters in education. Receiving bachelor of science degrees were Michael Singer, son of Mr.

and Mrs. Sam Singer, Felton; Lenore Rae Olark, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. Baer, 125 Monterey street, Santa Cruz; Gary Lynn Compton, son of Mr.

and Mrs. Joseph B. Compton, 2-2931 East Cliff drive; Donald Patric Henneuse, son of Mr. and Mrs. W.

E. Henneuse, 204 Sims road; Ronald M. attend American university in Washington. The pair are frequent supper guests generally fried chicken at their parents' home in the suburbs. Between reunions, the family keeps in touch by telephone and letters with Dad carrying the ball mostly on the writing end.

When together, the accent is on fun. Throughout their teens, the children spent their summers on Lake Waverly and all are excellent swimmers. They all like boating and water skiing, including Mom and Dad, although Mrs. Humphrey has not yet mastered the one-ski approach. The close-knit family has managed to weather tragedy (the Humphreys' eldest granddaughter is retarded and their son Robert was operated on for cancer of the lymph gland last summer) and the difficulty of constant publicity.

"The children have made an excellent adjustment," says Mrs. Humphrey, "and I do feel they're really normal as pie." Like many families, the Humphreys have an old jalopy a Model which the three boys have dismantled dozens of times. They also have two horses, Indy and Duchess, currently cared for by Doug. The children have not been complete angels. "Sometimes the boys would hide a ticket (parking summons) from me for two or three weeks," laughs Mrs.

Humphrey. None as yet has indicated any interest in a political career. As youngsters, they had to be prodded slightly into accompanying their father on speaking engagements. "They were far more interested in swimming than in their Dad's speeches," remembers Mrs. Humphrey.

But all campaigned for their father in 1964, and all apparently enjoyed it. Right now, though, each one is anxious to continue his studies and establish himself on his own. Nancy, 26, cares the least for politics, and as mother of three daughters has the least time to spare for it. She spent 2V2 years training to be a nurse at Northwestern hospital in Minneapolis before her marriage and has since wanted to complete her training. Her husband, Bruce Solomonson, who works for the Grain Terminal association in Minneapolis, makes up for Nancy in political arenas.

Bruce accompanied Mrs. Humphrey on several tours last fall, including trips to Alaska and Hawaii. Skip, 22, graduated from American university this month, plans to enter law school next fall. He enjoys traveling, has worked summers on a construction job in Switzerland and for an airline in Chile. After his most grueling summer job a nine-hour day on the assembly line of a grease gun factory he ruefully admitted: "I think I know the value of an education now." Bob, 21, is aiming for a business career after just completing his sophomore year at Man-kato State college, Minn.

A model boat lover, he takes care of the family's cabin cruiser. "As a child, he loved to build model boats," Mrs. Humphrey recalls. "He spent hours and hours on one special boat which meant a great deal to him." "One summer he was refinish-ing it again and he set it on a By Tom Nolan Newspaper Enterprise Assn. Washington (NEA) Shortly after his election as vice president, Hubert Humphrey and his wife Muriel arrived at their five-bedroom home on Lake Waverly, for a brief rest.

First order of the day for Humphrey was a snowball battle with his youngest son, Douglas. Exhausted, the pair finally stumbled into the house. Nudging his mother, Doug whispered: "Gee, Mom, Dad's still fun." Doug's remark is perhaps as close an admission as you'll get from any of the four Humphrey children that some sort of adjustment in family life was necessary following their father'! election. In the main, the children regarded and still do regard, Humphrey's new duties as just another job which he works at in much the same way he always has. The biggest disadvantage, of course, is the prodigious demand on Humphrey's time.

This, though, is something the children have learned to live with, since their dad has been campaigning for or holding public office since 1943. Their views on this drawback were summed up by 21-year-old Robert last summer in Atlantic City, shortly after Humphrey accepted the vice presidential nomination. "We miss him," said Bob, "but Dad is so much fun when he's with us that it makes up for all the time when he hasn't been with us." Most of the family get-togethers take place in Minnesota, where three of the children live. The fourth, Skip (Hubert H.
