I Oklahoma Rat Flies to
I Texas to Meet His Doom
FORT WORTH, Texas, UP)—An
Oklahoma rat ended its last plane
ride Tuesday morning at Mea
cham Field here.
* Fatal trip though it was, it was
quite an honor for a rodent. The
rat was the only passenger.
A crew at the Tulsa Municipal
Airport saw the animal run
aboard yesterday afternoon just
before the plane was to load 11
passengers for a flight to Amaril
lo. No one could find the rat
and the passengers didn’t get
aboard.
Instead, the plane was brought
to Meacham Field, where Central
Airlines has its maintenance head
quarters.
Public Health Service employ
ees put poison in the rat bearing
plane here last night and sealed
it up.
At 8 a.m. Tuesday the rat dis
embarked. It was dangled by
its tail in the grip of a main
tenance man.
Russian Nuclear Test
Blamed For Increased
Radioactivity in Sweden
STOCKHOLM, UP) — The last
series of Russian nuclear tests
had increased radioactivity in
some areas in Scandinavia to 25
per cent of what is considered
ihe danger point, the Research In
stitute of Sweden’s Armed Forces
said today. '
Swedish scientists ae worried
about the concentration of stron
tium 90, which can cause bone
cancer.
Dr. Torsten Magnusson of the
institute said “there is no doubt
that the alarming increases of
radioactivity over the past three
months is caused by the intensi
fied Russian nuclear tests.”

Fishing in Northern Pacific
Til Resources Are Studied

curb its catches of red salmon in
Northern Pacific waters.
