Moiiy iNeicner cragno cosiwick Eddie Bragno, was in town from (w Your Career By Anne Hey wood This is the time of year when last June's grads, who have now been working about four months, frequently begin to contemplate a change of career. Here, for some random comments from my mail: "They told me this job would offer opportunity for advancement, but I've been here a little more than four months and I'm still a plain stenographer." "During the summer, this was a wonderful place to work because of the air conditioning. But now it's just a bore, so I think I'll change.

If only I knew whether they were going to give a Christmas bonus this year!" "One of the girls from my high school has a job that pays ten dollars more than mine and she's nowhere near as smart. They won't give a raise here until after the first year, so I think I'll begin to look around." And they all ask what I think. Well, here is what I think: If you take on a permanent job, you owe it to the employer and to yourself to stay at least a year, unless there are some extremely unusual factors present. What these girls should have done, uncertain as they were of what a job means and what they'd like to do, was to take a series of temporary jobs right out of school. "But they didn't.

They contracted for permanent jobs and chances are they got a good deal of training at the company's expense. Moreover, if they will settle down and do a really marvelous job where they tare, they will find that they get the raises and the additional opportunity before too long. But they won't get it by sitting and wishing and looking out the window. Again, if you do a terrific job in any work, it begins to get more interesting in spite of itself. Then, at the end of the year, If you do decide to leave, you will leave with good references and a good feeling all around.

If you leave now, it'll look bad to your present employer, to prospective employers and to yourself! If you still feel that you can't stand it, take the energy that would otherwise go into stewing and fretting and put it into figuring out what kind of job you really want after you've put in your year in your present (For pointers on how to find the job you'd like, send me a stamped, self-addressed envelope in care of this newspaper and I'll send you my pamphlet, to Finding Your Basic cago over the weekend, hot on the trail of dress designer Marusia.

T. Hyman, M.D. Although cat scratch disease has only1 been recognized as a specific type of infection for the last 10 years, several epidemics have already been reported. Since the population of pet cats exceeds even that of pet dogs, as I recently learned to my astonishment, I thought that those of you who cherish a household tabby might like to know more about this newly described disease. Perhaps this information will indicate what you can do to protect yourself and your family if the infection finds its way into your home.

Here, in brief, Is the present state of our knowledge of the disease: It's oaused by a living microorganism that's never been seen but that can be transferred from animal to animal by injection. This miCro-organism is present in pus obtained from patients with the disease. From this pus, a substance can be isolated that produces a skin test in those who have had the disease. It causes no reaction In those who have never had the disease. The micro organism may persist in the cat's claws for many months.

Hence a pet that's transmitted the disease to any one member of a household remains a threat to other members for a considerable length of time. Kittens, probably because of their appeal and playfulness, appear to transmit the infection in most instances. The feline carrier of the disease may suffer and even die of infection, presumably with the organism in question. But in most instances, the suspected animal has not been ill and seemed not to be ill (healthy carrier). The first sign of the disease may not appear for from seven to 61 days after the scratch.

What you'll first notice in the neighborhood of the scratch is a group of small red swellings (erythematous papules). Shortly thereafter, glands that drain that area will become tender, sore and swollen. If the disease remains localized, the gland may drain pus. This pus is highly infectious. If the disease does not remain localized and spreads through the body, all the lymph glands may swell, the joints may become involved (arthritis) and there may be accompanying fever and the usual discomforts that go with a febrile Illness.

None of the drugs presently available have any influence on the infection. It usually subsides by after a few days to a few weeks. Recovery may be speeded by surgical drainage of pus from infected nodes. Now, at risk of offending the army of cat lovers, I'll tell you what these facts suggest to me. If you've a pet cat or kittens, you ought to protect yourself and especially your childretn from being scratched.

If any one of you Is scratched, watch out for signs of the disease I've just described. Should these then develop, send for your doctor and tell him the circumstances. It's just possible that early and intensive treatment witht one of the miracle drugs will prove to be more effective than we've been led to believe. And finally, though I tremble to write this, give serious thought to getting rid of the cat since persistence of the carrier state poses a continuing threat to other members of the household. Short Ribs By Frank O'Neal Inside Labor By Victor Riesel Walter Reuther, who has worked himself In and out of a hospital bed during this presidential campaign, nurses one thing mora than his health and voice that's the union's strike fund.

By summer, the United Auto Workers, which Reuther and Emil Mazey lead, will have well over in its industrial war chest. Next season will be a hot season for all unions including, of course, Reuther's, whose contracts with the Big Three car makers expire in August. The fund would have run close to $60,000,000 if strikes weren't getting tougher to win. There's a general impression that Jim. Carey's Electrical Workers Union was the first to go down before a large company which decided to stand pat.

'Tis not so. It cost the Auto Union over $12,000,000 worth of its strike fund In 1959. More recently the UAW paid out some $1,250,000 to fight United Aircraft and another million for the campaign against J. I. Case Company.

Otherwise the fund would stand much higher than the current $29,000,000. But that's a tidy sum in good, not-yet devalued United States dollars. And it's all tied up in cash. The Auto Union membership appears in healthy condition judging from the happy fact that over 1,100,000 are working. This means they'll be putting $1.25 a month each, or over into the strike kitty between now and next summer.

There are no major skirmishes with any company due before then. The UAW will be In a strong financial position. Should the auto companies take the same stand as General Electric did on, say, dropping the cost-of-living "escalator" clause or the attitude the steel Industry assumed on work rules, there will be a strike. This prediction was made In a recent column. The contents of that column were included in briefings of President Eisenhower In the White House before he emplaned and later In Detroit, I've been informed.

The, President was disturbed by the thought of an auto strike which might run longer than the steel stoppage. He was disturbed both as a President and as a man who will be a private citizen In less than 90 days. The President Is a hard man when It comes to dealing with any threat to a hard American dollar. The steel deadlock shook the nation's prosperity. Mr.

Eisenhower Is reported to fear that a long auto strike could shove that prosperity around some corner for a long time. This is what motivated his miblic scoldin? of both sides in Detroit a scolding which didn't leave his Industrial suonorters exactly ecstatic. There Is little evidence that Industry, and labor are ready to take President Eisenhower's advice to adopt "preventive measures for the prompt settlement of industrial disputes." The early sixties will be an era of early showdowns. These will develop regardless of the final countdown on November 8. Most Industrialists feel the time has come to take labor on after 25 years cf retreat.

Most union leaders believe they must push ahead to stand still against the electronic brains which run machines that run machines which displace manpower. So while the nation has been watching adult westerns and young debaters on TV. convention after convention of thousands of union delegates have been voting for enlarged strike funds. There is an Industrial Union Department fund, a strengthened machinists aircraft electronics workers fund, a shipbuilding workers kitty, a rubber workers chest, throughout the basic Industries. The first test will develop on the auto front.

That will set the pattern. That's why President Eisenhower spoke as he did. So They Say If William Shakespeare was writing today he'd be doing westerns. He presented his characters in heroic grandeur. And we should do that with characters from the West.

If you write about people as they really are, they're dull. Actor Barry Sullivan. By Peter Edson Reports to Vice President Richard M. Nixon from his home state of California reveal that Democratic opponents have been investigating his brother Donald Nixon's business deals in their home town of Whittier. The reported intent is to publicize these transactions just before the election in some way that will reflect discredit on the Republican candidate personally, to hurt his bid for the presidency.

In an attempt to offset any such move, the Nixon headquarters in Washington has made available to this reporter a full explanation of all revelant facts in the record, to get the story out in the open and end the gossip. Robert H. Finch, who is Nixon's personal campaign manager, insists that the vice president has never had any part or investment in his brother's business enterprises. Most of the deals he made In the name of his now defunct company, Nixon, were not even known to the vice president until after their completion. The principal transaction in which the Nixon family fortunes were concerned centers around a lot at the corner of Santa Ger-trudis and Whittier boulevards in what is now East Whittier.

This is a now-valuable piece of property on which the old Nixon home was located. It is where the Nixon boys' father, Frank M. Nixon, had his store. It is where Don Nixon later built his first drive-in restaurant and gift shop. Both these businesses prospered and their profits increased after Dick Nixon was elected to Congress and became vice president.

In 195fl, Don Nixon negotiated with Union Oil Company to open a filling station on the corner lot. He then held a lease on the prop- Beauties to visit mm in New YorK im winter that if all of them take him on it, there'll be a serious girl shortage in several foreign capitals, particulaJy Paris.

A gay and unusual evening will be A Danger Period A recent appeal by State Traffic Safety Commissioner 0. D.

Shipley warrants mention in that it concerns the safety of children. The appeal asks that motorists observe special caution during the Halloween period, when children will be gaily traveling the streets, so engrossed in their good times that they will sometimes forget traffic. One point made several times still repeating: The Halloween masks worn by many children hamper their ability to see clearly. That means 'that youngsters, even if they do remember to look for cars before crossing a street, may not see approaching automobiles because of their masks. The Shamokin area has been fortunate in that it has had a minimum of Halloween accidents in the past.

However, the best assurance of continuing that good record is that all drivers show a more solicitous attitude toward the young fun-makers, remembering that they themselves were once "kids." Further action toward a safe observance of Halloween involves parents, who should caution tneir children of traffic dangers and should see, also, that visibility is not hampered by ill-fitting masks. Campaign Hazards In the current presidential campaign it has been rather frighten-ingly demonstrated that, in a good many American cities large and small, police techniques for the handling of crowds have grown terribly out of date and inadequate. As a matter of plain fact, they have not been able to control crowds effectively. The result has been to expose both the candidates and the enthusiastic citizenry to danger. Since this campaign began, a governor traveling with one of the presidential nominees has had the lapels of his suit torn off, a candi-' date has had his shirt badly ripped and other men have lost parts of their clothing.

Both nominees have been jerked and shoved and jostled beyond belief. Vice President Nixon, though guarded by Secret Service as well as local police, has been bombarded by "well-wishers" who do not seem to understand that tightly wadded balls of confetti are virtually weapons. In Senator Kennedy's slow ride up lower Broadway in New York, his car was rocked, its radio aerial snapped off and part of the special seat on which he and his wife were planted was broken. Women have run smack into police motorcycles as they tried for a "touch" of one candidate or the other. Men have been caught between moving cars and motorcycles.

As a motorcade moves, hundreds often press so close they are in peril of tailing beneath cars. Many swirl around and between the cars while they are in motion. Others find themselves jammed between groups of automobiles, in danger of being crushed. Through all this, police can be seen struggling to keep the roadway clear and thus protect both the candidates and the people. Police "barriers" have meant nothing in many places.

They are the first things to go as the eager push forward. No one could pretend this is an easy problem to deal with. But obviously it must be done. It is fair to say that it is the merest good luck that no citizen and no candidate has been seriously hurt in this campaign. (At Rochester, N.Y., two people were knocked down and one of them was lightly trampled on.) When the current madness is over, the police authorities of citites could well confer on means of handling this dangerous situation in future campaigns.

They dare not assume glibly that it is a thing of the moment, resulting only from Vie special enthusiasms felt for the present nominees. Firm measures appear to be called for. Anyone who has noted the behavior of political crowds in 1960 can see that "education" of the people will not be enough. They are astonishingly careless of both their own and the candidates' safety. And their good luck in averting real harm will not last forever.

Voice of Broadway By Dorothy Kil gallon erty, which was the principal asset in the estate of the Nixon brothers' mother, Mrs. Hannah Nixon, after the death of her husband.

Don's lease paid his mother $800 a month rental and this was a main source of her income. To build the filling station, Don had to borrow $40,000. As security for this loan, his mother agreed to sign a trust deed, or mortgage on her property. In exchange, Don's Nixon, firm gave his mother a pledge of its stock to re-pay the note. The loan was made for Of this, $40,000 was used to build the filling station.

The other $165,000 went into Nixon, expansion. Don opened several restaurants and gift shops in the Los Angeles area modeled after the Whittier establismment. But the new businesses did not prosper. In 1957 Nixon, was In trouble and could not meet payments on the loan. The company failed.

In December its assets were sold at public auction to pay off creditors. Liabilities were put at $400,000 and assets at under $50,000. In lieu of foreclosure on ber property, Mrs. Hannah Nixon a year later deeded the property to the lender, Attorney Frank Waters of Whittier. Mrs.

Waters and Donald Nixon's wife had been in 'high school together and the two families were and still are good friends. So it was natural that Waters should have assisted in financing Don's business ventures. Frank Waters then deeded the property back to Frank Reiner, one of the creditors who had threatened foreclosure. The deed contained an option of absolute conveyance, giving complete satisfaction for the Mrs. Hannah Nixon then wrote a letter in which she acknowledged she had disposed of all inter-' est in the property and that all rental income should be paid to Reiner.

All this Is a matter of court record in Whittier. Mrs. Hannah Nixon lost her property, but other income has enabled her to live comfortably. Donald Nixon lost his business and is' now employed by Carnation Milk Company. He and his wife live where they have lived for some years, in rented property.

And it's a good thing, according to Charles Collingwood, the host of CBS' Person to Person. "Everybody has two sides to his personality," Collingwood says. "There's the side he shows the world, and the side he shows at home.

You might call them public and private personalities. On our show, we try to let the public see the private personality. "Of course, there's a private, private personality, too the one the star will never show on the screen. I get to see that when we're taping in a star's home and something goes wrong. Some of them get upset, nervous or grouchy.

Others are adways pleasant. "One of the nicest was Herbert Hoover. Everything went wrong and the taping session took two days. That old man was so patient! He told me he'd spent his life as an engineer, and he knows that equipment sometimes goes wrong and it's no one's fault." As you may have noticed, Person to Person this season is giving you more entertainment figures than others. There are two' reasons for this, Collingwood reports.

First, the show is in a new time period. So they assumed the big stars would build an audience. "You have to get them into the tent before you can evangelize them," Collingwood says. Another reason is that in this election year non-political, show business stars are much safer. Person to Person has been criticized, in the past, for being too frivolous and not taking advantage of its opportunities to ask sharp questions.

Collingwood disagrees. "We're not as frivolous as people think," he says. "Some of the people say some serious and important things. I also think we get a better idea of people through their answers to less serious questions. "Many politicians have told me that the easiest questions to answer are the ones which seem tough the kind Larry Spivak asks on Meet the Press.

It's like a fast ball, which seems hard to hit but it is actually the easiest to knock out of the park." Collingwood feels the public wants to know the private personalities of public people. And he says the show's mail corroborates this. After a program featuring Kim Novack, there was a flood of letters saying: "I never knew Kim Novack was so nice." mented, "This is the first letter we ever got from you that wasn't a complaint."

These musicians have a knockout sound and they don't compromise: you won't hear them playing "Chain Gang" or "Polka Dot Bikini" Although it was reported in the British press that Cary Grant would make his home in England, Cary says not so.

He spent a lot of time over there filming and editing his new flicker, "The Grass Is Greener," but he explained: "Perhaps as I get older I enjoy seeing more and more of the land of my birth, but I won't make my permanent home in England. America has been very good to me, and I hope, in a small way, I've been good to it."

But they aren't trying to keep it a secret from the cast and backstage crew. The Metropolitan Opera opened its season in a blaze. of ennui with "Nabucco," an early work of Giuseppl Verdi, which he rewrote frequently and better as he went along. Heaven knows Thomas Schippers tried, with his crisp and romantic conducting, to treat the work as if it were "Don Giovanni," but if they ever do it again, he had better call in some new arrangers to fit the music to Cornell MacNeil and Leonie Rysanek, because both of them sing flat. Cesari Siepi is splendidly in tune, and the costumes at beautifully draped but the total effect is one big drag.

Miss Rysanek's frailties were dramatized by her claque, which tore up programs in the galleries and threw the pieces, in a sort of ticker tape parade effect, to annoy people sitting in the more expensive seats people who were already plenty annoyed by the diva's way of singing from some place between her tonsils and her soft palate. The direction by Gunther Ren-nert can only be described as Inexcusably amateurish. The program notes mentioned that this was his debut, but it was hardly necessary. "Nabucco" could well be his debut and his swan song. Further information on Andy Williams and his "cop-out" at the Twin Coaches near Pittsburgh.
