Heard And Seen
ON MACON
BYWAYS
By ROLFE NEIIX
There's a man living in Frank
lin who survived an atomic blast.
What's more, he volunteered (or
the assignment.
Roy M. (Buddy) Biddle. Jr.,
took part in atomic tests in the
Nevada desert in 1953.
At the time, an Army clerk at
Ft. Jackson, S. C., he and a pal
offered themselves when the call
came for "guinea pigs".
The Army constructed a mock
town on the Nevada testing
ground, and on the outskirts of
the town, at varying distances,
trenches were dug. Loaded with
combat gear, the soldiers were
placed in the ditches.
?
WHEN AMAZON Annie? the
code name for that particular
test ? cut loose, the men were to
count to a certain number and
then stand up in the trenches.
The atomic cannon let go its
shell, there was a blinding flash,
then a blast; the men counted
and stood up. The concussion
knocked them down.
After the blast, the soldiers
clambered out of their trenches
and walked through the shelled
area to test the effects of radi
ation (of which there was little,
according to Buddy).
Buddy thought it interesting,
but unspectacular. He was more
impressed with nearby Las Vegas,
where he spent an evening or
two.
PEOPLE WHO are skillful
enough drivers to parallel park
on Town Hill, within the lines
by the newly-placed parking
meters, shouldn't have to pay In
stead, they should be given a
prize.
?
IT IRRITATES me when tele
phone callers demand of me. as
I answer the phone. "Who's this?"
There are more polite ways of
finding out such information.
So, it delighted me to see one
of these rude people put into his
place. Roland Giduz, of the Chapel
Hill News Leader, tells the story '
An old-time Chapel Hillian call
ed one of the town's public offices
recently and demanded of the
clerk who answered: "Who's this?"
Trying to be cooperative in
playing the guessing game as re
quested, the clerk replied, "Well,
I can't tell for sure, but it sounds
like a rather nice, middle-aged
man. If you'll just give me a hint,
I believe I can guess."
The caller dropped the question
and asked for the person to whom
he wished to speak.
?
CONTRARY TO what may be
the prevailing opinion, women
haven't taken over everything
And apparently, the Presbyterians
don't intend to let them.
I see by The Southern Presby
terian Journal that of 46 Presby
teries voting so far on the pro
posal to ordain women elders , 27
have voted no. This includes the
Presbytery of which Franklin is
a member.
Will there be segregation In
heaven, too?

MISS LAURA M. Jones, a really
remarkable woman, was the first
home demonstration agent in
Macon County.
After a course at Raleigh, she I
:ame home full of knowledge a
Dout home canning. One of her
ideas was to have women can
jeets and sell them to the stores.
She had a feeling none of the
stores would be too interested so
she had a number of women ask
it their trading places for canned
beets. The merchants couldn't sui>
ply the requests.
When Mlv. Laura and her ladiei*
offered canned beets for sale U>
the merchants, several weeks later.,
the eager tradesmen bought them
Miss Laura didn't tell me
whether the poor devils ever soW
any.

ANYBODY TAKING a close
look at the tags on a shipment
of beef which came into thfr
Dixie Home store here last week
would have found some queer
writing on them. The writing wan
in Hebrew.
Hebrew? In Franklin? Ahr
there's a story to It.
Lowell McKee. the pleasant
helpful manager of Dixie's meat
market, said the meat came from
Iowa. A film there specializes in
kosher meats and when it gets
overstocked, offers carloads at
bargain prices.
"Kosher" means sanctioned by
Jewish law and especially applies
to food that may be eaten
ritually clean. Those interested
in ancient Hebraic food laws can
find them in Leviticus and Deuter
onomy ? and can read how the
Jewish people were forbidden to
eat ? for sanitary reasons of the
day ? the meat of the camel, hare,
pig, and the like, and were not
allowed to eat blood.
Lowell says there's no detectable
taste difference in the meat. The
main difference is that there's
less blood in it.
