Dr. Buckland's
Article Used
The Arithmetic Teacher, a Jour
nal of The National Council of
Teacher* of Mathematici, carried
an article in It* February issue by
Dr. 0. T. Buckland of the Mathe
matici Department. Appalachian
State Teacher* College. Thi? article
wu concerned with the Prlsmoldal
Formula which wai first brought
forth by the eminent English
mathematician, Sir Isaac Newton
in 1711. This formula wa* first
presented to the public in pflnt
by James Sterling in his "Methodus
Differentials" in 1710.
In fact this formula, although
unknown to many people, is one of
the most important formulas in
mathematics. It can be used in
solving the volumes of rectangular
solids, spheres, cylinders and other
?ollds.
Even though this edition of the
Arithmetic Teacher has been be
fore the public for a matter of a
few daya, Dr. Buckland has re
ceived communications concerning
the article from as far away as
Madison, South Dakota, among
others.

CULTURAL EXCHANGE WORKS
Washington ? The United States
and Russia have carried out two
thirds of their big cultural ex
change agreement without a major
hitch.
This historic agreement, signed
about a year ago, is working so
well that both sides are seriously
considering extending it when it
expires next January.
Washington Comments
Washington, D. C. ? Something
exceedingly odd Is going on in
the Lyndon B. Johnson political
The Senate Majority Leader has
insisted stubbornly that he is not
a candidate (or President of the
United States. But even as l>e has
spoken these assurances, his every
action has tended to contradict
them.
Some very reliable Washington
news analysts are now putting out
the word that something occurred
at a political rally In Wisconsin
last weekend that, they believo,
definitely removes Senator John
son as a presidential contender.
They point to the fact that James
Rowe, Jr. ? law partner to Tom
my (The Cork) Corcoran and a
very close political advisor to
Johnson ? came out strong for
Hubert Humphrey during the Wis
consin political meeting, and that
he presumably did this after con
ferring with Senator Johnson.
This, they say, indicates that
Johnson will use his considerable
political influence to put Hubert
Humphrey in the White House.
But the odd thing is that friends
of Johnson who, a week or so ago
were insistent that Johnson was
not a presidential condidate now
indicate that he is. That this
switch should come on the heels
of reports that Johnson has "re
moved himself as presidential
timber presents something of an
enigma.
Several reports emerged from
interviews with close friends and
associates of the Majority Leader
which, when pieced together, may
provide some sort of an explana
tion for what is transpriring in the
Lyndon Johnson camp:
1. Johnson's friends are betting
money that neither Hubert Hnft
phrey nor Sen. Jack Kennedy of
Massachusetts will be the Demo
cratic Presidential nominee in
I960.
2. If Johnson is the nominee, he
will probably give the nod to Hu
bert Humphrey or Sen. Stuart
' Symington of Missouri as his run
ning mate, unless it becomes ne
cessary to make a deal with Ken
nedy to secure the sizable bloc of
: delegate votes he now has.
3. Johnson's supporters believe
' that, if "given enough rope" Hum
? phrey and Kennedy will kill each
other off as potential contenders
for the nomination. '
4. Friends of the Majority Lead
er note that ex-Prealdent Barry
Truman, who still throve consid
erable weight in Democratic Party
councils, has said that only a man
who has demonstrated the ability
to lead can get the nomination
and win the election, and that Lyn
don Johnson has demonstrated
that ability.
5. Howe's visit to the Wisconsin
political meeting did, indeed, fol
low a meeting with the Majority
Leader, at which other advisors
to the senator were also present.
Getting a plausible explanation
from these related reports is some
thlng akin to solving a crypto
Perhaps Rowe'i activity la Wis
consin was aimed at smoking out
Senator Humphrey and getting
him to declare hlmaelf aa a presi
dential candidate, so that Ken
nedy can openly attack him and
Humphrey can begin to do battle
with Kennedy.
Humphrey himself has said that
Row* "wants me to declare my
self as a candidate."
Johnson's associates describe as
"hypothetical" suggestions that
eithCT Humphrey or Kennedy will
be the presidential nominee for
tha Democrats, but they say that
in ?ueh ? hypothesis. Gov. Leroy
Collins and 8<-n. George Sma^ben
of Florida are among the brat
beta for a Tic* presidential candi
