SMOKIUSS GENERATIONS WHY NOT? "Let's make theirs a smoke less generation" is the battle cry of the National PTA's dy namic ongoing Smoking and Health Project. In the fall of 1966, the National PTA launched a major campaign, supported b> funds from the United States Public Health Service, to produce America's first generation of non-smokers. Since then, almost 10 million copies of Wis Firxt Cin a ret te May Be a Matter of Life or Death, the project brochure ad dressed to parents and designed for distribution on a parent-to parent basis, have been distrib uted internationally through state and local PTA's, and the European Congress of Ameri can Parents and Teachers. A second brochure, Smoke lemi Generations: Why Xot?, recently was added to the Smoking and Health Project's collection of materials available to PTA members. "It was de signed to give 'do-something' suggestions for the continued promotion of the project," said Mrs. Carolyn Hendrick, project director. Mrs. Hendrick, who is nationally known for her ef forts in the light against smok ing, recently was elected to the executive committee of the Na tional Interagency Council on Smoking and Health. During the period January 11-16, 1971, the National PTA Chet Huntley Alive And Well In Montana Chet Huntley, whose recent retirement broke up the NBC tel evision news team of Huntley-Brinkley, is more familiar with a chain saw these days than with a microphone. Huntley, who lives in Montana now, is developing a resort at Big Sky. With winter setting in, he tries his hand at cutting firewood for the cold days ahead with a McCulloch Mini-Mac 6 chain saw. On hand to' give advice is William McVaugh, area manager of McCulloch Spokane Company. Can a world famous commentator give up the pressure pack ed life of a nightly television show and find happiness in the country? He can if his name is Chet Huntley. The popular ex newscaster, whose recent resignation broke up NBC television's Huntley Brinjiley news team, , is now | living an 3 developing a resort ; at Big Sky, Montana. "As you might suspect," j Huntley says, "there is a con siderable difference between j Pig Sky of Montana and New | ork City. But there's no I .(.uestion that this is X j it makes for a great day, opinion, to come out in » forestland, at the foot of ' >se tremendous mountains, ] and do a little tidying up, saw a little wood, and clear out some trails." In developing the resort and clearing land in the heavily timbered country, workers re ly on McCulloch chain saws, j lluntley takes an occasional j turn cutting firewood for the | Bolt Action Most Accurate There are two types of shooting; one makes for good story-telling, while the other puts trophies in the den and meat in the freezer. The hunter who gets' Ave shots at a buck on the dead run or tries an impossible shoulder shot from 400 yards can tell some exciting stories. Yet. the hunter who gets close and shoots like his first shot is his last, will fill his big game tag out more frequently. I'm partial to the fellow who stalks and takes only the good shots. He is, in my esti mation, the real sportsman. He's /iot interested in blasting away, but in placing his shots precisely. He eliminates the chance of losing a wounded animal, ruins very little meat, and only shoots when he's sure of a clean kill. Just as types of hunters dif fer, so do their sporting arms. The "spray" shooter looks for a rifle that's fast. Firepower is his main objective. The stalk er who pinpoints his shots places the emphasis on ac curacy. Over the years, I've owned and fired just about every con ceivable size, caliber and style of rifle, and I'll put my money on the bolt action when it comes to accuracy. Sure, you can shoot a lever action like a Sako Finn wolf, a pump or autoloader accurately but you'll be more consistently accurate with a bolt action. Among the reasons for the bolt's accuracy is its vault like locking mechanisip. Lock up a Bolt, action and you know it's solid. There's no loss of ' power when you flre this one. Stocks also affect accuracy. BOlt action rifles are designed with rigid one piece stocks. Other types, with the excep tion of a few like the Finnwolf, have two-piece stocks. Which flex upon firing, reducing the gun's accuracy. # ' has urged its memliers to par ticipate in the observance of National Education Week on Smoking.

I The former newsman is concerned about the effect of the resort on the land and the j environment. "Even though this is pri j vate property, no longer do : you move in with heavy ma chinery,' dynamite, and bull dozers and start knocking down trees, moving earth, and dammiQg up streams," he says. "Perhaps, we Americans have discovered at long last that you've got to treat the land, and the sky. and the water, and the earth with a I certain amount of respect, j And certainly with some ten | der, loving care." Bench rest shooters use bolt actions exclusively. They find the bolt's trigger mechanism more positive, with less slack. Also, the large receiver rings on most bolt action rifles pro vide a rock solid base for scopes. A classic example of bolt action accuracy was recently illustrated by an unmodified Sako Vixen. The .222 Vixen, just as it came from the box, set a National Bench Rest Shooting Association Light Varmint Rifle rA:ord with an amazing 10 shot group of .209 inches at 100 yards. While other actions may be limited by magazine designs, you can buy a bolt action rifle in almost any caliber, from the tiny .17 to the .458 safari gun. The breeches are built to withstand huge pressures, making them extremely safe for the shooter. Finally, the bolt action's de is unsurpassed. They will operate under the most adverse conditions and are the easiest type of rifle to service in the field in an emer gency situation. Once you've picked your rifle, practice, practice, prac tice! Try shooting under all light conditions and at various distances. If you haven't done any tracking lately, thin K about practicing before the season opens. You can .always shoot your game with a cam era. Once you get the hang of a bolt action rifle, you won't have to tell stories—your tro phies will do all the talking for you.

Sam Doctors Goes to DC to Draft Minority Report BVANSTON, 111. - Sam Doctors commutes to work from his home at 2233 Forest view Road in Evanston. But unlike most of his neigh bors who make the to downtown Chicago, Doctors has jMen traveling to Washing ton, D. C. for the past seven months. He has been, among other things, a consultant to the National Advisory Council on Minority Business Enterprise for National Goals and Strate gy, 1 bastfd la , the nation's capital. But now the presidentially appointed council has com pleted its blueprint for a na tional strategy to stimulate minority business develop ment. The draft is being re viewed by the 84-member council, which will reconvene Jan. 16 to make its final pro posal. The Council's report is scheduled to be released Feb. 1 and most of the council's work will be finished then, Received Your 71 Card for License Plates? RALEIGH If you own a motor vehicle that is re gistered in Nogh Carolina and have not received an ap plication card for your 1971 license plate, you should con tact the Department of Motor Vehicles as soon as possible. According to James H. Sta men, director of the depart ment's registration division all cards were mailed before Christmas and should now be' in the hands of motor vehicle owners across the state. Ap proximator 3.4 million cards were mailed. Stamey suggested tkat in dividuals have\not received the cards first contact the license plate sales office nearest their home. He said undelivered application forms are held by local offices until the conclu sion of the sales period. If the local office does not have an Individual's applica tion, he concluded, that indi vidual should contact the Re gistration Division, Depart ment of Motor Vehicles, Raleigh. The deadline for displaying tke 1971 plates is February 16. In its first six months of air line service the first model of the new generation of wide bodied jet transport aircraft carried one million passengers on 5,000 flights. The first jet transport, introduced into ser vice in 1958, required one year and 15,000 flights to log one million passengers. BUYTHE PAIR FROM -Hxrtftxrlnir Deluxe Dryer Two Speed Perma Press .

So you'd think Doctors, who is a second-generation Ruasuan Jew, might ait back and relax a bit - except that's just not his nature. He even tallcs repidly - not brusquely nor loudly - but just very fast as if he has so much to say he's afraid he won't get It all said. Short, dark-haired, al though it's receding, he looks like a cross between a mad scientist and a college pro fessor. Actually, he's a bit of both. He worked on the Gemini space project as work director responsible for sy stems analysis, and before that was a senior mathemati cal analyst for AC Sparkplug. While in his late 20s, he left industry, and enrolled at Har vard Law School, where he got his law degree in 1967. He also holds a doctorate in busi ness administration from Har vard. In June, 1969, he came to Northwestern University as an afeociate professor in the Graduate School of Manage ment. Defense Contract Risks Undermine National Strength America's security and continued economic and technical progress rest to a large degree on an equit able business relationship between the Federal Gov ernment and the companies that produce the hard ware for the nation's defense and space programs. There is evidence that an important aspect of this re lationship is being eroded. A detailed study of weapon systems procurement regulations, policies and practices as they have devel oped during the last decade discloses a steady trend under which financial risk in defense contracts has shifted unreasonably away from the sole buyer the U.S. Government and onto private industry con tractors. Ironically, there still is a widespread belief that de fense contracting is synonymous with fat profits. To the contrary, the hazards of pricing weapons several years in advance of delivery, giving warranties on products that never have been built, let alone tested and proved, and other contractual conditions not found in commercial business operations, place de fense contractors in jeopardy of extremely low pro fits and even losses. For example, many items of necessary cost which commercial manufacturers re cover in the price of their products cannot be recov ered by defense producers interest on money that has to be borrowed to build specialized facilities to make a new product specially ordered by a single cus tomer, to cite one. The truth on profits is that from 1958 through 1968, as reported by the authoritative Logistics Management Institute, profits on defense contracts were substan tially less than half as great as profits from the manu facture of durable goods as a whole. In 1968 the ratio of profits before taxes as a percentage of sales was 3.9 percent for defense contracts as compared to 9.4 percent for durable goods manufacturing. Increasing risks and declining profits cause concern today because of the danger that if this combined trend is not arrested or reversed an increasing num ber of companies can be expected to turn away from government business. The resulting loss of competi tive vigor will slow the pace and quality of the tech nological exploration and advance which have been so important to the economic growth and military se curity of this country and of the free world. When he was named direc tor of the Council's Academic Resource Group, Doctors put together a group of consul tants and research assistants to provide information and sup port to the council members. And he's generally pleased with their results. The council's report is ex pected to provide the basis on which Resident Nixon will give life to this much men tioned black capitalism pro gram. In setting up the coun cil nearly two years ago, he said that encouraging in creased minority group busi ness activity was one of the priority aims of his adminis tration. The report will call for a restructuring of agencies Involved in minority econo mic develop, tax Incentives to industries and trade as sociations involved In deve loping and training minority businessmen, and guaranteed minority loans. The specific proposals, and there will be close to 100 of them, don't go as far aa Doc tors would like. He says he believes there have to be great stride in minority de velopment In today's world.

MODERN FARMING Columella, an ancient Roman, discussed hay making in his writings more than 2,000 years ago. Hay Has Developed Into Precise Crop Since Early Roman Haymaking Days Haymaking is one of the world's oldest farming oper ations. From the time man first domesticated his horse power he looked at least in part to harvested grass for his animals' diets. In fact, one of the first farm writers, a Roman by the name of Columella, penned some words about haymaking more than 2,000 years ago. He described hay ing as "throwing hay loosely together for a few days to heat and concoct itself be fore putting into the mow." A lot has happened to hay ing since Columella's days when hay was looked upon as merely a handy way to feed stock.

Haymaking has become a precise, valuable agricultural science. As technology advanced, the shape of haymaking changed. Horse-drawn ma chines replaced hand labor ers in the hay field. Mowers cut hay, rakes piled it into windrows and baling presses baled it into more practi cal packages. No longer used mainly to feed live horse power, hay today is looked on as the main food source for live stock that end up on our dinner tables.

Hay is still thrown looeely to gether to concoct but today the throwing is not done by hand with a pitchfork and the concocting is urged on by application of technology. Today hay is cut, condi tioned to retain nutrient val ue and piled into long neat windrows by one machine, the New Holland Haybine® mower-conditioner. Coupled with the other modern hay tools produced by New Holland, the farm equip ment division of Sperry Rand, the Haybine enables the up-to-date farmer to make hay with little or no hand labor.
