FASHION CENTERPIECE of this traditional dining room is
a chandelier equipped with General Electric's new "Celeste"
light bulbs. Both older fixtures such as this and newer ones
can take on additional beauty when bare bulbs are replaced
with General Electric's new decorative "Celeste" bulbs.
The attractive, cone-shaped bulbs are ideal as replacements
when original glassware on fixtures breaks and cannot be
replaced.
TIPS FOR THE
SMALL HOME GARDEN
COLLEGE — Space is often a
limiting factor in home garden
ing. Home owners can grow both
flowers and vegetables in a small
space if careful planning is done
before planting, says H. W. Pills
bury, horticulturist with the Uni
versity of Alaska Coperative Ex
tension Service.
Lettuce, radish, carrots, chard,
combined with sweet alyssum,
dwarf marigolds, agreatum, drawf
petunias and pansy makes a dec
orative pattern.
Mr. Pillsbury suggested that it
is not necessary to separate veg
etables ancL flowers in groups.
Plant a row of pretty flowers
through a row of vegetables. In
I
this way the whole area will ap
pear to be a flower garden. Ra
dish and carrots may be set in
the same row, since the radish
will be used long before carrots
are ready. The same is true of
lettuce and onions. “Be sure to
cut — not pull — the lettuce, to
avoid disturbing the shallow roots
of the onion. “Many pleasing veg
etable flower combinations can
ibe worked out by the home gar
dener,” Mr. Pillsbury concluded.
For help in selecting flowers,
obtain “Flowers for Alaska,” Ex
tension Circular 400. For help in
selecting vegetables, get copies of
“Recommended Varieties 1960
Vegetables,” Extension Circular
450, and “Gardens in Alaska,” Ex
tension Bulletin 451. All are avail
able at local extension ofices.

Negroes Go On
Rampage; Kill
Portland Man
PORTLAND, (41 — Two young
Negroes, one of them the brother
of prizefighter Eddie Maohen, were
in jail on first degree murder
charges yesterday, awaiting a
grand jury investigation into the
beatup death of a white man.
Police continued to probe into
other Saturday night beatings —
all isolated affairs that came as
a car pulled up alongside pedes
trians on dark streets — to de
termine whether the assailants
were the same. They thought they
were.
Paul Arnold Machen and
Charles Ivan Patterson Jr., both
21, faced the murder charge. Two
others, Benjamin Joseph Irwin
Jr., 21, and Enlivy Ron Grand
berry, 20, were held as material
witnesses.
The dead man was Edward J.
St. George, 44, an unemployed
farm worker. He was found dying
on a street early Sunday, his
skull fractured.
Police Lt. William Hoff said one
of the men told him they got to
brooding about troubles of their
race in Africa and in the South,
had a few drinks, then started out
“to do something about it.”
Heavyweight fighter Eddie Ma
chen said his young brother
“doesn’t have any chip on his
shoulder. I don’t think he’s the
kind of a guy who would do a
I thing like this.”

How a Wonder Drug it Born
A scientist working in the laboratory of an American pharmaceutical
firm found a clue that pointed to an improved treatment for arthritis.
His company gave him the green light to go ahead with an elaborate
research program. Many months and nearly two million dollars later
—the idea proved to be a bust.
Another company backed up a
team of researchers who spent sev
eral years—but they came up with
something great. They developed
an antibiotic called Terramycin. It
clobbers a wide variety of disease
causing organisms.
Those two examples give a nut
shell description of the pharmaceu
tical industry . . . except for one
significant fact. For every research
project that turns out successfully,
scores of others wind up in ascientific
blind alley, a dead loss financially.
In the past few years the pharma
ceutical industry has provided doc
tors with many new life-saving
tools—drugs that would once have
seemed miraculous. But they were
not produced by miracles. It took
scientific skill, lots of hard work
and the willingness of ethical phar
maceutical firms to underwrite the
heavy financial risks.
So many wonder-working drugs
have come out of the research
laboratories since World War II
that an illusion has been created.
There seems to be a vague impres
sion that automation can be car
ried over into medical science—that
a health discovery can be concocted
like a kitchen recipe. It goes like
this:
Take a team of trained scientists,
place in a modern research build
ing, add complex equipment, stir
in large amounts of dollars, and let
simmer for months. Result, a valu
able drug.
Does that kind of recipe auto
matically produce a useful new
weapon against disease? Far from
it, as most companies know too
well. Past experience shows about
►---—
300 failures for each success.
During 1959 alone, American
pharmaceutical firms spent $190,
000,000 on research. Will that multi
million-dollar gamble pay off? For
some companies, yes. For many
others, no.
Yet, whether the drug firms gain
or lose, the American public—and
people all over the world—can only
win. For out of this vast research
endeavor will come tomorrow's
wonder drugs.
Perhaps at this very moment, in
one of the hundreds of laboratories
financed by American free enter
prise, a researcher may be on the
trail of a great discovery. It might
be a drug that will bring new hope
to victims of cancer, leukemia or
heart disease.
At any rate, we can only hope
that our free enterprise system will
continue to encourage American
private industry to pour more mil
lions into the research test-tubes.
