Show r Study Kentucky Bars School Of Religion FRANKFORT, Ky (U.F) There is no legal authority to permit the teaching of religion by missionaries mission-aries in the Kentucky public school system. Attorney General Eldon S. Dummit has ruled. Religion is not a part of the prescribed public school course, the attorney general wrote a Greenville school teacher. Miss Grace Taylor, and even if it were it doubtless would run afoul of constitutional objections. "Many well-meaning people do not understand why religion is not taught in the public schools of Kentucky." Dummit declared. "They forget that these schools are supported by taxation of citizens cit-izens who are Catholic. Protestant. Protes-tant. Baptist, communist, anarchist, anar-chist, infidel, agnostic and atheis. "Each of these citizens with different religious ideologies, has the inherent right to teach hi' children hs own particular brand . of morals, ethics and religion, and to prevent his children from be-' in taught any brand of ethics.' morals and religion that he be lieves detrimental to the children. "If the state coerces one of thei children to attend its puonc schools for secular or vocational instruction, the state ha no right either to teach or to permit another an-other to teach these children any brand of morals, ethics or religion reli-gion that is contrary to the religious reli-gious or anti-religious belief of the parents. Coercion Disapproved "To do so is to coerce the child I to hear and receive instructions outside of the secular or vocational voca-tional instructions which it is the duty of the state to teach, when the tax was paid by the citizen for the purpose of instructing the youth of the state in secular and vocational education only." Dummit added that wHile a "large majority of our citizens do not even tolerate the theories of communism, anarchism, agnosti cism or atneism nevertheless those holding such beliefs have the "civil right to protect their children from receiving instructions instruc-tions they believe to be detrimental detri-mental to their best interests."

LARGEST CREATURE The world's largest creature is the giant Cyanea jellyfish. Spread out, with its tentacles reaching in all directions, its diameter would be more than 200 feet, yet the whole animal could be placed in a small pail. RUFU8, Ore. U.R What was probably the opening round io the struggle to cross the Rhine River was acted out on treacherous treacher-ous swollen waters of the Columbia Co-lumbia River near here in the winter of 1944-45, it has been revealed. re-vealed. War Department strategists selected se-lected the Columbia, flood-swol len by winter rains, for tests of the M-4 pontoon-type floating bridge. If the bridge worked, there was hope of transporting rapidly and effectively the 36-1on General Sherman tanks across the Rhine. As it worked out in actual combat, com-bat, the tanks managed to get across the Rhine without help from the M-4 bridge, thanks to the Ninth Armored division's spectacular grab of the Luden dorff Bridge. But in the tense days of late 1944, no hope was feasible that the German general staff would fail to destroy the Rhine bridges in the event of an allied threat. One hundred and eighty loaded flat cars were shipped to Oregon for the bridge test. The vital problem was not whether the bridge could hold tanks, but whether whe-ther it could carry them safely over the currents of a flood-swollen flood-swollen major river. The important testing assign ment was turned over to a provi sional engineer combat group under command of Lt. Col. Rufus C. Carhart. whose unit included the 558th engineer heavy pontoon battalion. 590th light battalion, the 1687th engineer combat bat- Union Head Jailed for Court Contempt WW - ji- . 0 I -if n rn: 1 Mm '4 "J Erect Quietest Room In World MURRAY HILL, N. J. iU.FV A room which will be so quiet that even the stirring of molecules in the air or the beat of a heart will break dead silence is being built here for the sake of improving telephone communication. The spot will be the quietest place on earth, according to E. C. Wente, Bell Telephone Labora tones research physicist, who is in charge of the project. It will be known as a "dead room." Because the building will be completely sealed, it will be necessary nec-essary to equip it with special air conditioning. Even air waves flowing from ordinary equipment would create a sound comparable on the outside to thunder. "Although acoustical research has been carried on continuously almost ever since the telephone was invented, this room will givo us facilities never Jbefore available." avail-able." Wente said. "We can experiment ex-periment with sounds that begin at the threshold of hearing and will be able to perform new experiments ex-periments with voice production, tone quality, hearing and diction."

With the Columbia boiling downstream at more than 10 mph in current velocity, the engineers anchored four pontoon rafts and trained until they succeeded in accomplishing the bridging task m less than 24 hours.

Parks Await Tourist Influx WASHINGTON (U.R Major improvement of tourist roads in the national parks is going to have to wait at least another year. The national park service has planned to spend approximately $17,500,000 on construction of new roads and badly needed repairs to old ones in the 1947 fiscal year. But the President's recent economy econ-omy order cut $9,500,000 out of that turn. So the total scheduled to be spent on the service's roads amounts to about $8,000,000. Although unable to make lavish lav-ish promises about roads next year, the service predicted that more people than ever will visit the already-crowded park accommodations ac-commodations in the 1947 season. Attendance this year is expect ed to surpass even the previous peak of 4941. Figures for July alone showed an increase of about 300,000 visitors in 1946 over 1941. At the beginning of the sum mer season, the park service en visioned enveloping hoards of visitors to overflow every avail able accommodation in the na tional parks. As a result, they sent out repeated warnings to vaca tioners to wire or write ahead before starting, to make sure of a place to sleep. While the service still expects visitors to reach the 25,000,000 mark by the end of the travel year in October, the number of travelers was not so staggering as had been expected, perhaps because 01 the warnings. The 1947 season, however, may bring an even greater crowd of sightseers when new cars become more plentiful, the service pre dicted. It said that accommoda tions should still be reserved in advance.

Sept. 27 (U.R) It was an expensive meal for Oscar the seal. Oscar died. An autopsy revealed, re-vealed, the Academy of Sciences Sci-ences said today, that the seal's stomach contained three pounds, 44 ounces, of coins, including: One quarter, one Canadian penny, one street car token, one amusement token, eight dimes, 27 nickles and 514 pennies. It was the pennies that proved fatal. A large number were Wartime rinc "coppers." Oscar's gastric juices combined with, the metal to make zinc chloride. The result was too much for Oscar. The autopsy also determined deter-mined what you can't tell without surgery the sex of a seal. Oscar was a lady.
