A Calendar of Rug Care
v Use your carpet sweeper daily
“t to keep rugs clean, fluffed up,. .
free of dust, ashes, lint, crumbs.
You'll save time and money . . .• i
keep rugs beautiful longer... i
by setting up a regular schedule
and sticking to it.
il I
Vacuuming once a week keeps
heavier dirt and grime out. Dirt
particles have minute cutting edges
which work into fibers, shortening
their lives.
^ I
Ideal rug care calls for a sham
poo every 6 months, which in many
cases doubles the life of the car
pet. Bissell's Shampoo Master ap
plicator and Rug Shampoo cleans
carpets and rugs with as little ef
fort as it takes to use a carpet
sweeper or vacuum cleaner. K

Predict 30 Million
Run of Red Salmon
In Bristol Bay
J
SEATTLE l/T* — Recent predic
tion of a heavy run of red salmon
in the Bristol Bay area has been
revised — upward. .
Dr. William F. Royce, director
of the Fisheries Research Insti
tute at the University of Wash
ington forecast yesterday that the
run will be 30 million fish.
On May 15, a forecast made
jointly with the Alaska Dept,
of Fish and Game and the Bu
reau of Commercial Fisheries of
the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Serv- j
ice indicated that a run of 22
million could be expected.
The new forecast is based on
purse seine sampling marie
through June 15 by two Univer- i
sity of Washington research ves
sels.
“In all probability the salmon
are migrating through several
passes and many of them will not
go into the area of Japanese fish
ing, Dr. Royce said.
Catches by the research vessels
have been best off Umnak in the
Eastern Aleutian Islands and very
good off Adak in the Central
Aleutians.
The announcement said the
runs are expected to reach Bris
tol Bay in large numbers by July
1.
On the basis of the forecast the
canning industry has been able
to make advance plans to harvest
the salmon. The runs are expected
to keep the canneries operating
at full capacity throughout the
season.

2 V2-Year-Old Girl
Issued Library Card
WEST NEW YORK, N. J. (J>V—
Florence Jacobs is the proud
owner of Public Library Card
No. 4536.
The card will enable her to
pursue such favorite subjects as
rocketry and the geography of
outer space. It will bring her an
endless supply of the long, tongue
twisting words that she likes to
spell.
Florence is 2V£ years old.
The brown - eyed, 39 - p o u n d
bundle of answers applied for her
card Monday, but it took a little
doing to get it. Library regu
lations are that card holders must
be at least seven years old.
But after a meeting with Flor
ence, Mayor John J. Armellino
made an exception to the rule.
Her mother, Marie Jacobs, said
Florence already has read some
60 books through the seventh
grade level. She learned the al
phabet when she was a year old
and now spells more than 300
difficult words. Florence’s father,
Jerome, is a business consultant.
Skeptical newsmen, attending
the special card-granting cere
mony, started questioning Flor
ence.
“What happened May 5, 1961?
she was asked.
“Alan Shepard Jr. was the first
American to shoot into space. And
that was a magnificent achieve
ment,” Florence replied.
“What are the hazards in outer
space for a spaceman?”
I “Cosmic rays and ultraviolet
I radiation,” chirped Florence, “and
I you call a spaceman and astro
I naut.”
! To cap her performance, she
! named the planets and theii
satellites and ticked off, in al
phabetical order, all the 50 states
in the United States.
