Dr. NEW BRUNSWICK, Griffith W Williams, Rutgers uniconfirmed psychologist, versity what most motorists know some people can drive in a trance. Dr Williams said he had hypnotized a Rutgers student and sent him driving for several miles without mishap The student stopped, started and turned as required but his reactions, the psychologist said, r uere slower than normal. Dr Williams said the trance could be induced by monotony such as caused by driving on parkways and long stretches of highways free of distractions He said hypnos.s could be caused by a succession of traffic lights changing in regular cadence, the white strip separating parkway lanes, soft music from the car radio as well as the monotony of some scenery For persons liable to such trances, driver Is a however, a back-sea- t possible cure "The trance is broken, of course, Dr Williams said, "by some distraction such as the honking of a horn or other sudden noise National Press Club Names Eight Outstanding Women Rebecca West, British novelist and reporter, is one of eight outstanding women to whom President Truman will present the Women's National Press club achievement awards.

The congressmen urged the President personally to look into this problem on his trip to California and recommend what can be done to save the water. Mr. Truman pulled out maps jal the bay region which he already had been studying, and assured the congressmen that he previously had intended to give the matter his personal attention.

I want to cover White House Visitors THE PRESIDENT HAS RESORTED to new strategy in handling White House callers. For some time, Washington observers were amazed at the number of visitors President Truman saw dally. But now the calling list has tapered oS. The official list released every morning shows only a handful of visitors. What most people dont know, however, is that there are five separate entrances to the White House, and in recent weeks Mr. Trnman has been fooling the press. While regular White House correspondents wait In the lobbv of the executive offices watching for presidential visitors, various private callers slip In other doors. Sometimes as many as 25 will flow into Mr. Truman's office unnoticed. They coroe in through various side doors, sometimes even the distant east wing, and then are spirited around the back through the rose garden and in to the President. Some old senatorial friends also drop around to see Mr. Truman at breakfast. Others come in after breakfast, but before the press Ed Flynn has been in arrives Former twice lately, unnoticed. Judge Sam Rosenman is again a White House regular using the east gate, as is George Allen, the old court jester Another new favorite Truman rendezvous is the presidential yacht, the Williamsburg, where he holds stag poker parties with old sometimes sleeping on buddies, board and walking back to the White House early in the morning before most people go to work y. the nice things of HOUSE...

Nichols isnt a good pitcher. He is a great one. I recalled this talk when the mall brought a letter from Ty Cobb at Menlo Park, Calif. I think everyone has overlooked one of the greatest pitchers of all time," Cobb writes. His name is Kid Nichols. Here are just a few of his records from 1890 to 1906: 1. Won three consecutive games on three consecutive days, all pitched in different cities. 2. Won 10 or more games for 10 consecutixe jears. He won SCO and lost 202. 3. Won 28 or more games for eight consecutive seasons, 4. Best three consecutive jears of pitching percentage. to 5. Only pitcher of note average 24 wins per ycar-a- t present distances . Cobb also extends bis admiration to Eddie Plank and Ed Walsh. Id take Ed Walsh as my first choice r peof all pitchers for a riod, he told me once. He literally pitched his arm off in 1908 when he worked in 66 games, winning 40 Imagine and saving 12 others. being responsible for 52 victories? "Its hard to outrank Eddie Plank, Cobb said In his recent letter. Tlank worked in 620 games, won 324 and lost 190. He was a fine pitcher smart and always packed with control. lie wasnt as fast as Grove, but he was a tough man to beat, One can be reminded again of the great pitchers Connie Maijk brought along from Waddell, Bender and Plank to Coombs, Grove. Eam-sha- A srttkW Pensions AT A SECRET POWWOW with congressional Democratic leaders President Truman was told there was little chance cf congress approving any of his proposals to increase old age pensitns. However, the leaders advised that the people were entitled to a frank report on how old age insurance benefits on which millions of Americans depend for retirement security have lagged behind higher wages and That was why Truliving costs man decided to send his message to congress anywa. Michigan s aggresive representative, John Dingell, an original champion of the social security law, summed it up bluntly. "Unless to pensions are Increased in ratio higher wages, higher taxes and higher living costs, counties that have sold their poorhouses for the aged will have to re establish them. y Dingell said it would be to increase pensound sions because of increased revenues from payroll taxes. He added: Sixty million people are employed now, more than we ever dreamed of when we changed the law In 1939. We thought then that we wouldnt have that many employed until he thought of his wife: Shes out to the store, trying to buy another radio for me She cant afford it; don't let her do DAYTON, Pattern AV bit teacher, accused of turning his classroom into a crime school, was held in the Montgomery county Jail here on charger of contributing to tlje delinquency of minors and authorizing two students to steal automobile parts for him.
