Show Carol liiglcy Named G1IS The Tooele Transcript, Friday, February 6, 1970 llOUfiEII X WS IM Representative Senior Carol liiglcy, on the basis of her score in the home-mukin- Americans, especially since 1457 when the Russians nearly scared our pants off with Sputnik I, have been infatuated ' with statistics. Facts are stubborn little things," somebody once said. "But statistics are more pliable." Lots of people claim you can prove just about anything with statistics. And maybe theyre right. Take, for instance, the fact that a couple of years ago the death rate for kangaroos in American zoos was almost on the same curve with the increase of cigarette smoking in America. That must surely have meant that we were allowing our kangaroos to smoke too many cigarettes. In Arkansas last year the highway death rate declined over the previous years figure, and the sale of peanut butter increased proportionately. Some people might be led to believe that eating peanut butter makes one a safe driver. In his classic Life on the Mississippi, Mjrk Twain showed us what nonsensical conclusions can be reached with statistics-- if you combine them with imagination. In 176 years, the Lower Mississippi has shortened itself 242 miles," Twain wrote. This is an average of a tritle over one mile and a third per year. Therefore anyone can see that 742 years from now the Lower Mississippi will be only a mile and long, and St. Louis and New Orleans will have joined their streets together." Its all a great game, that dabbling in statistics. Try it. Youll soon see that many times a statistician is a man who draws a mathematically precise line from an unwarranted assumption to a foregone conclusion. And speaking of statistics, the government says we should build 100 new cities in the next 30 years. Just think of hat many more places to get mugged. But the most terrifying statistic of all is the rate money has shrunk lately. Its to the point that I really miss the two dollar bills. They'd come in handy for buying a dollars worth of almost anything. Meat prices have really gotten out of this world. The other day I went out to buy a pound of hamburger and my wife insisted on going with me. She said she doesnt trust me with that much money. (Talk about the price of meat-- all the Catholics I know are going back to fish on Fridays.) And did you see where somebodys statistics led Congress to extend the poverty program for two years? What we need is a poverty program for those of us who support the poverty program. The most newsworthy statistics of the past year, however, were those tangled in with the new draft lottery. I dont know if you noticed or not', but its the first lottery around where the winning numbers lose and the losers win. The lottery has confused a lot of people, too. A neighbor of because he doesnt ours thinks her boy is safe from the draft-ju- st g knowledge and attitude test taken by senior girls Dec. 2, is Grantsville High School's 1970 Betty Crocker Homemaker of Tomorrow, it has tieen announced.
