Gregory, Symphony man-ager. These five concerts will be given on consecutive Wednesday evenings continuing to August 15, it was announced. This is the first real "pops" series ever launched in Utah and the announcement will be hap-pily received by the many music lovers in the state who have re-peatedly asked about such con-certs. A grant of $3,750 from the Simon Bamberger Foundation enabled the symphony to present this series, it was explained. The programs include all time favoriets from Broadway musi-cals, light operas, delightful mel-odies from around the world and familiar tunes designed to please the entire family. Sharing the conducting spotlight will be the symphony's permanent conduc-tor, Maurice Abravanel, and the orchestra's associate conductor, Ardean Watts. The world famous George Shearing and his jazz quintet will perform with the orchestra in the opening concert July 18. The musical fare will range from the delightful music of Johan Strauss to modern jazz, with a Mozart piano concerto featuring Mr. Shearing in between. Season tickets for all five con-certs are on sale at the Utah Symphony office, 55 West 1st South, for $7.50. Season tickets for children under 12 are half price. Tickets for individual con-certs are $2.00. They are avail-able at the symphony office and also at Lagoon on the evening of the concert. Joe Weston Says Change is Not Always Progress "Automation is not necessarily a good thing and change is not always progress," Joseph Wes-ton, Democratic candidate for the United States Senate, told a meeting of the Saturday Night-er- s Club at Mt. Pleasant Thurs-day night. - "The ultimate goal of automa-tion would be the complete elim-ination of the necessity for hu-man labor, and there are many who will dispute whether such a thing would be good for hu-manity or not. "It is only in the last century that most civilized nations have freed themselves from shackles of human slavery with teaching themselves that human labor has dignity. Now comes automation, to make human labor unneces-sary. "I believe that automation of commercial and manufacturing processes should be promoted slowly, and with due care to the welfare of all workers whom the new machinery displaces. We must remember that human values come first. I believe that local, state and county govern-ments are fully justified in their slowing down or even in pro-hibiting the automation of busi-ness or factories where undue hardship will accrue to those thrown out of work, or undue stress come to bear upon a com-munity's economic life, by such automation. "Somewhere along this line of constant change we must draw a line, and say that 'here we will stabilize development for a time so that human beings can catch their breath and learn to live and adjust to the new conditions before we push them headlong into the entirely new set of con-ditions," he concluded.

Radioactive Isotopes Being Used in Disease Diagnosis A new study on the use of radioactive isotopes for earlier diagnosis of placenta previa, a serious complication of the birth process, is reported this week by three Florida doctors in a recent issue of Obstetrics and Gyne-cology, official journal of the American College of Obstetri-cians and Gynecololists, reports the Utah State Medical Assn. The placenta, commonly called afterbirth, is the organ which connects the mother with her unborn baby to permit passage of food, oxygen and waste prod-ucts. Normally, the placenta is safely located above the baby. However, sometimes it becomes attached instead to the lower part of the mother's uterus near the birth canal and thus ahead of the baby during birth. Serious complications can result from the weight or pressure of the baby upon it unless preventive meas-ures are begun. Among the com-plications are hemorrhaging by the mother and cutting off the flow of blood and oxygen to her unborn baby. Accurate vertical location of the placenta in 29 of 30 mothers studied by use of radioactive iodine is reported in the journal by Drs. Denis Cavanagh, who is a Fellow of ACOG, and Charles E. Powe and Albert J. Gilson of the Departments of Obstetrics-Gynecolog- y and of Radiology, respectively, of the University of Miami School of Medicine and Jackson Memorial Hospital in Miami, Fla. By introducing radioactive iodine into the mother's blood stream and applying an isotope counter, the authors were able to locate the placenta from its heavy concentration of blood. These findings were checked with examination at the time of delivery (from two hours to nine weeks later), revealing that 15 of the patients were correctly diagnosed as having normal pla-centa and another 14 patients were correctly diagnosed as hav-ing placenta previa. The 30th mother was thought to have pla-centa previa but proved to have a normal placenta. The authors point out that this false positive diagnosis was made shortly be-fore birth and that the patient had large varicose veins in the area of the heavy isotope count. "With good obstetric care the maternal mortality associated with placenta previa has been reduced to less than one percent. The realization that the condi-tion can be managed conserva-tively also has led to an increase in the number of infants saved." The treatment outlined in-cludes blood transfusions as needed and confining the patient to bed for at least three days. The use of Caesarean section for all but the most minor degrees of placenta previa has reduced the incidence of oxygen shortage for the infant during birth. The authors report that during a three year period a total of 632 women were admitted to the Jackson Memorial Hospital with bleeding symptoms during the last three months of pregnancy, of whom 80 had placenta previa. There were no maternal deaths among this latter group and four of five babies were saved, rilvaawei-bicaartandgsp- ss ,kgst A henpecked weather man was describing his wife to a friend.

Arabian Horse Show Set July 20-2-1 At County Grounds The hardy little horses that changed the history of the West the legendary Arabians will put their best hooves forward on July 20-2- 1 at the Salt Lake County Fairgrounds, 4900 South State, Murray. Occasion will be the ninth an-nual All-Arabi- an Horse Show which will spotlight more than 250 of the finest Arabian horses in the west. G. Easton Brown, American Fork, president of the Utah Ara-bian Horse Club, and Noy Chris-tofferso- n, Lehi, show chairman, said there will be horses from nearly every state in the west and noted that there are now more Arabian horses in Utah and California than in all of Arabia. The show officials said the event is being held during the Days of '47 celebration in Salt Lake City this year because the Arabian horses played such a vital role in changing the west. They pointed out that not only were the Arabs the first horses, since pre-histor- ic times, to set hoof on New World soil in the fifteenth century, but they were the first horses ever ridden by American Indians. It was not un-til the Indians stole the Arabian horses from the Spaniards that they became mounted warriors and had any real power over the white invaders. Mr. Brown explained that it was these Indian ridden Spanish bars or mustangs (as the Arabian came to be known (that almost defeated the pioneers. The beau-fu- l little war horses could exist on desert forage, go without water and climb like goats and it took the U. S. government, with its cavalry and guns to finally defeat the Indians and the Arab ponies. Jehovah's Witnesses Conclude Meeting The largest gathering of Jeho-vah's Witnesses ever to assemble in Ogden concluded their three day Bible refresher course Sun-day evening at the Ogden High School auditorium. A capacity audience of 2,305 persons heard the thought pro-voking and stimulating Bible dis-course "Take Courage God's Kingdom is at Hand." John P. Sutherland, principal speaker, began with the exhortation "This is the time that calls for courage! This is the time to take courage! Why? Because God's Kingdom is at hand." "Nineteen centuries ago a mes-sage like this electrified people who had the right expectations. Today countless numbers have not heard about God's kingdom. Hundreds of millions of others have heard God's kingdom men-tioned but have not understood what this divine government means to mankind. So why should thsee take courage at the nearness of God's kingdom. It is because of the relief and bless-ings that God's kingdom will bring, not after our day, but in our very own generation." Army Pvt. Richard J. Snow, son of Mr. and Mrs. Grant Snow, 1358 West Eighth South, com-pleted the aircraft engine repair course at the Transportation School, Fort Eustis, Va. During the 13th wek course Snow was trained to repair the engines and allied equipment used on Army aircraft. He entered the Army last Oc-tober and completed basic train-ing at Fort Carson, Colo. Snow is a 1957 graduate of West High School. i If you like Orange Juice... you'll love a wis Screwdriver! The fruit juice provides sunshine.
