GEIN BUT NOT Smoke rises from ruins of the Ed Gein house at Plainfield, Thursday after fire destroyed it. The building was the home of Ed Gein, confessed killer and grave robber. The house was scheduled to be auctioned in IO days. In background are other buildings of the Trash Embers may diagnose disease Sparked Gein from drop of blood Fire, Theory PLAINFIELD MV- Deputy Fire Marshal John V. Hamster of Wausau said Thursday night that sparks from a rubbish fire could have caused the blaze which destroyed the farm home of grave robber and slayer Edward Gem.

Hassler visited the farm after the house burned to the ground early Thursday morning. He said he found hot coals buried in the two-foot high pile of ashes left by a bonfire started Wednesday by a cleaning crew to dispose of trash. The bonfire was about 75 feet from the house. Hassler said the fire was a large one, but the flames did not travel along the ground. Flames destroyed the clapboard house as Plainfield residents seethed over the proposed auction sale of the property on Palm Sunday.

Community leaders denounced the sale as commercialism of Gem's crimes. Gein has been committed to the Central State Hospital for the Criminal Insane at Waupun. Harvey Polzin, the court appointed guardian of the property, said plans for an and inspection of the farm and the March 30 auction remain unchanged despite the fire. Polzin said he could not estimate the loss but said the entire 195 acres and house and outbuildings had been appraised at $4,700. BALTIMORE at Johns Hopkins indicate it may -rbe possible to diagnose many diseases simply by analyzing a drop of blood.

However, the announcement cautioned that studies to date were not conclusive. Many hundreds and possibly thousands of tests will be required for each disease before conclusive results will be known. The diagnoses are obtained by studying one group of blood constituents, the mucoproteins or serum mucoids. The theory of Dr. Winston Price, who is in charge of the tests, is that blood particles take on characteristics peculiar to a certain disease whenever the disease is present.

The blood particles might determine if cancer, tuberculosis, ulcers, heart disease, or some other disease is in the patient. BUSINESS MIRROR 5-10 Stores Trading Up And Moving Out Labor Would Support Farm Picket: Schultz MERRILL Schultz, president of the Wisconsin CIO, told a Lincoln County Democratic party meeting Thursday night that if a legitimate farm group puts up a picket line to stop the flow of milk, labor would feel duty bound to support them. Schultz said he is not in favor of a strike if the dispute can be settled rn another way. But he added he feels farmers have a right to withhold their products from the market in the same manner workers withhold their labor to enforce their demands. By SAM DAWSON NEW YORK MV-The old five and ten cent store, that hardy perennial of retail business, has flourished since the war by trad- mg up and moving out.

Some variety chain store executives think the first trend has topped out and the second could slow down. Trading up means that the variety stores turned from tile sun; dries and kmcknacks that once were the bulk of the five and to more expensive and I extensive wares. In this they have been keeping pace with the year by year gain in the spending money of their customers. They moved out to the suburbs and then into the shopping centers. Some store executives see consumer caution today revealing signs of trading down by shop- I pers.

But all insist the variety stores should suffer less from the current slump than some other retail outlets. stores might astound I the managers of the old five and tens. Examples: a J. J. Newberry store in Manhasset, Long Island, carries expensive French perfumes.

A McCrory store in Brooklyn sells $25 dolls. A Grant store in Minneapolis has sold $90 Mex- 1 ican burros as pets. Other variety stores offer $70 bikes and stuffed toys up to $30. I Among other store practices unheard of when Woolworth and Kresge and Kress were starting out; many stores now allow cus- tonners to buy on open or revolv- ing charge accounts; some offer delivery service; some 1,500 are i self-service type stores with cus- i tenners toting their purchases in a 1 cart to the checkout counter. Total variety store sales are estimated at nearly four billion dollars a year now, a 500 million dollar gain over 1956, partly due to many new outlets.

Like other retail stores they felt the February slump, blamed on foul weather and falling incomes I in some communities. But the variety stores make the best show: mg of any type of chains. For March and April as a whole Easter business in both i variety stores look for a slight gain over a year ago. Many say inventories are in good shape. Woolworth, for instance, pared its stocks by five million dollars last year.

About 346 million dollars of variety annual sales come from toys. Here trading up has been carried out vigorously. By JAMES O. HOLMLUND (La Crosse Tribune Staff Writer! The subject of city-community planning has been fairly well indicated in the previous articles. Everything that has been written has been saturated with a fine line of planning needs required in a populated area.

Where there is sound, long- range all available facets of expert communities will grow in an orderly manner. La Crosse, for example, has a City Plan Commission. It is chiefly a lay group with one professional, the city engineer, on the commission. The Gateway City has had its master plans. A new one is planned for the next five-year period.

Now, La Crosse legislators hope to hire a fulltime city planning di- I who can plan and I shape progress now so the next couple of generations have to tear up streets and rip down buildings to accomplish what should have been straightened out in the first place. it it it The University of California, in I a study reported that in recent jMadison Girl Presented To Queen Elizabeth LONDON American girls, including one from Wisconsin, were presented to Queen Elizabeth II at Buckingham Palace saw the end of a chapter of British history. In a move to liberalize royal protocol, which has been criticized as stuffy, the queen has decreed this must be the last of the exclusive parties for debutantes at the palace. Last of the American debutantes to curtsy was Jaymes riet Van Wolkenten, daughter of Cmdr. Raymond Van Wolkenten, legal officer of the U.

S. naval support activity in London. The family is from Madison, Wis. Jaymes wore green sflk taffeta and a matching hat with a little veil covering her light browm hair. years there has been an increasing consciousness that there must be reasonable plans for orderly suburban development and planning.

The over-all plan would include streets: uniform building, electrical and plumbing construction codes; zoning and sanitary conditions; no haphazard hodge-podge for the long haul in the years ahead. It is a development of the community mass as a whole. Zoning and building ordinances would be extended in a logical manner. There then would be orderly growth dovetailed with annexation. A proper, most economically- operated educational system would flourish through a unified, planned and annexed setup, according to the League of Wiscon! sin Municipalities.

The same group also indicated I that fringe area problems are minimized through planning anc! annexation; that the entire community develops as a unit. An engineering report showed that where there are rural areas with urbanized subdivisions (small lots, concentrated, narrow I streets) unsanitary conditions oft- en develop. Eventually, the area; requires the same services as the; neighboring city. Where city streets deadend I against a town boundary occa- sionally there is a slum area brewing. Further, on costs, a master plan I is complicated and budgets mush- i room when sewer service be extended, good streets constructed and proper drainage provided.

It is not an easy matter to correct problems developed in random fashion through many years of growth. ie it it The Council of State Governments, quoting another publication, said: through annexation, eradicated many shortcomings of the fringe that previously spilled over the official city limits and harassed city The same group added that annexation basically has provided a method for central and other cities in metropolitan areas individually to assume jurisdiction over neighboring areas that usually have many deficiencies in services and controls. defects are harmful to both the fringe dwellers and the city the governmental council went on. The basic issue pertaining to planning and growth problem comes to this point: There is necessity for cities to take positive action, to have a plan of action to insure orderly growth at a point where the city boundary joins town and out-county areas. The same far-sighted action is needed in developing the tools, techniques and procedures to achieve this aim.

Above all, the needs and wishes of the city and suburban folks must be considered, according to recommendations made by the Texas Legislative Council. (The seventh and concluding article in this series on community congestion and annexation will deal with a brief summary and means to achieve a consolidated community through annexation process.) jJhll!
