Sc!entists Find Possible
-Evidence of Gravity Waves
A research team at the Un-
iversity of Massachusetts has
found experimental evidence
that they believe directly sup-
ports the existence of gravita-
tional waves.
Such waves, long hypothesiz-
ed but never directly observed,
are in some ways similar to
radio waves, but are bast -1
the forces of gravity rather than
those of electricity and mag-
netism. The existence of grav-
ity waves is one of the long-
standing but heretofore untest-
ed predictions of Einstein's gen-
eral theory of relativity.
Gravity is the force that not
only makes an apple fall to the
ground and keeps our bodies
from flying off into space but is
th,: "glue" that holds our solar
system and the universe tog-
ether.
The possible evidence for the
existence of gravitational
waves was presented by Dr.
Joseph H. Taylor, Professor of
Astronomy at the University of
Massachusetts, at a symposium
on relativistic astrophysics held
in Munich, West Germany, Dec-
ember 14-18.
The new experimental data
came as the result of a four-
year program of monitoring the
radio emissions from a pulsar
located some 15,000 light years
from the earth, in a distant
portion of our Galaxy. Pulsars
are believed to be the remains
of dying stars that have ex-
ploded, leaving behind small,.
rapidly spinning remnants so
dense that a teaspoonful of the
material weighs a billion .tons.
Millions of pulsars are thought
to exist in our galaxy, although
most of them are invisible to
even our most sensitive radio
telescopes. About 320 have been
detected, mostly by the Univ-
ersity of Massachusetts group
and its collaborators in England
and Sydney, Australia.
The pulsar monitored by the
Massachusetts scientists was
discovered by them in 1974, and
is known to be orbiting another
massive object-- perhaps
another pulsar, or perhaps a
black hole-- because its repet-
itive "beeps" of emission speed
up and slow down over a regular
pattern lasting a little less than
8 hours.
Einstein's theory predicts
that such a system should emit
gravitational waves that slovly
extract energy from the orbit,
thereby causing the pulsar and
its companion to move closer
together. As the size of the orbit
decreases, the length of time
required for the pulsar to com-
plete an orbit also decreases.
According to Dr. Taylor, leader
of the group, relativity theory
predicts that the orbit period
should decrease at a rate of one
ten-thousandth of a second par
year. The measured amount is
almost precisely this value, or
about four ten-thousandths of a
second since late 1974. Thus an
important prediction, based on
an application of Einstein's
theory that could not have been
foreseen sixty years ago,
appears to have been verified.
Dr. Taylor said the finding will
give much impetus to exper-
imental work underway at num.
erous laboratories around the
world, directed to actual det-
ection of the- gravitational
waves themselves, as well as to
further theoretical studies of
the theory of relativity.
Dr. Tayior's colleagues in this
experiment include Dr. Peter
M. McCulloch, on temporary
leave from the University of
Tasmania, and Lee A. Fowler, a
graduate student. The Univer-
sity of Massachusetts' research
on pulsars has been funded by
the National Science Foundat-
ion beginning in 1968, a few
weeks after the first pulsar was
discovered by radio astronom-
ers in Cambridge, England.
Only one pulsar, the one used
in the present study, is known to
be a member of an orbiting
pair, Dr. Taylor said. Because it
moves at a speed of over 660,000
miles per hour and is subject to
the very strong gravitational
forces exerted by its compan-
ion, this pulsar is uniquely well-
suited for detection of the eff-
ects of gravitational waves.
Observations of the orbiting
pulsar were made with the
largest radio telescope in the
world, a 1,000-foot diameter,
bowl-shaped antenna operated
by the National Astronomy and
ionosphere Center near the city
of Arecibo, Puerto, Rico. It is
the only radio telescope sen-
sitive enough to make accur-
ate measurements of the orbit-
ing pulsar.

you're building a new home or'
wcation "get-away". you know
these problems first-hand.
But you can save on con-
struction costs with careful
planning, design, and selection
of materials. A booklet from the
U.S. Department of Agriculture
tells you how. For instance,
some designs .and floor plans
are more economical than
others. It helps to use stand-
ard design sizes and standard
materials. You can Cut costs
now by leaving some finishing
details for later, or you can do
some of the simple work your-
self. But avoid cheap materails
and shoddy workmanship, since
they are no bargains in the long
run. Iligh maintenance or re-
placement costs will catch up
with you later. Money-saving
tips are detailed in House Con-
struction--I low to Reduce Costs.
You can get a copy by send-
ing 80 cents to the Consumer
Information Center. DepL 49G,
Pueblo, Colorado BI009.
Your first cost-cutting step is
careful planning. Select a home
site with firm, well-drained soil
convenient access to utilities
and sewage disposal. Orient the
house for best ventilation and
sun exposure to cut energy
costs. Maximize southern ex-
posure in colder climates to
trap the sun's heat. But avoid
sunny exposures in warm
weather areas to cut cooling
expenses.
Next, look for economies in
overall design. Rectangular
plans are most economical and
two story designs are cheaper
because less vooi area.is re-
quired. A single gable roof is
least expensive since many
peaks and valleys are costly to
build and flat roofs are ex-
pensive to maintain.
Make sure you get the most
living space for your money,
too. Keep hallways to a min-
ium and build closet space only
as deep as needed, You can save
by making rooms multi-pur-
pose centers; for example kit-
chens, dining rooms, and family
rooms can share the same
space. Wide openings between
smaller rooms make them seem
larger. And finished basements
and attics provide extra living
space for little added cost.
Take advantage of standard
sizes in materials and finish-
ings when designing interior
features. Design rooms for
standard rug widths and stand-
ard window and door sizes.
You can also save money on
materials. Buy locally and in
quantity to save on delivery
costs. Shop around for the best
prices and use cheaper supplies
when they'll do the job. But
never compromise on struct-
ural lumber, paint, or mech-
anical and electrical equip-
ment. Buy the best you can
afford on those items that will
be difficult or expensive to
replace later.
When you order a copy of
House Construction--How to Re-
duce Costs (80 cents), you'll
also receive a copy of the free
Consumer Information Catalog.
It lists more than 200 selected
free or low-cost publications
from the federal government.

terly by the Consumer Inform-
ation Center of the General
Services Administration.

TO BE EQUAL
Federal budget
a battleground
By VERNON E. JORDAN
JR.
Copley News Service
The administration is send-
Ing strong signals that the
next budget will be an "aust-
erity" budget, with deep cuts
all across the board.
Well, almost all across the
board. Military spending will
go up. Some federal opera-
tions will be held to an in-
crease roughly comparable
with inflation.
But the ax is being sharp-
ened to slash federal job and
housing programs.
When you consider the
enormous waste In some fed-
eral spending programs --
shoveling out huge sums of
money to affluent suburbs
and mile-wide tax loopholes
and tax subsidies that benefit
the rich -- cutting social pro-
grams is outrageous.
If sacrifices are demanded
to restrain inflation, they
should not be borne by the
poorest among us. And that's
who would take it on the chin
if the rumors coming out of
Washington are accurate.
Poor people depend on fed-
eral job creation programs
and subsidized housing. They
need the health, income
maintenance and training
programs government pro-
vides.
And those programs aren't
just frills, icing on the cake.
No, they have become essen-
tial for survival. Cut those
programs and you cut the
• few strands left on the inade-
quate safety net our society
places beneath the poor. Cuts
in those programs would de-
liver a fatal blow to many
people's lives and hopes.
If the government is se-
rious about trimming federal
spending, those programs
should be the last to be cut,
not the first. Other targets
are far more inviting, and
would not result in worsening
the already desperate situa-
tion many people find them-
selves in.
A Brookings Institution
study found that the Penta-
gon's civilian payroll in-
eludes an estimated billion
dollars of waste in unneces-
sary personnel and in inflat-
eel salaries.
Some analysts suggest mil-
itary spending could be cut
drastically with no loss in
defense firepower. Whatever
the merits of such analyses,
most people agree that the
defense establishment could
be leaner and still retain its
effectiveness.
While calling for austerity,
the President signed a bill
raising pensions for non-
wounded veterans, an act
that will add billions to the
budget over the next few
years.
And while the administra-
tion works on cutting social
expenditures that aid the clt-
ies, it is planning a multi-
billion dollar civil defense
program. No one suggests
such a program would be
effective in case of nuclear
attack. But by going through
the expensive motions of
planning a civil defense pro-
gram we're supposed to be
convincing the Russians that
we're "tough."
Another bloated budget
area can be found in the pork
barrel projects favored by
the very congressmen who
yell loudest about cutting
urban programs. The Presi-
dent acted boldly last sum- '
mer when he vetoed a rivers
and dams bill, but billions
are still spent on those non-
priority projects that benefit
relatively few people.
Another popular pork bar-
rel federal program is the
continuing massive amount
spent on highway construc-
tion, something that ought to
be a state responsibility now
that the interstate highway
system is in place.
Revenue sharing monies
are not targeted and are
given to every local govern-
ment whether it needs the aid
or not. They could be re-
placed with targeted funds
that tackle priority problems
creatively.
The reason for cutting the
budget is to keep the deficit
down, something that could
be accomplished by expand-
ing tax revenues through that
tax reform we've been
promised for so long.
So there are alternatives to
slicing programs that are
needed by the poor and by
our deteriorating cities. The
federal budget is shaping up
as a bloody battleground
where the poor become sacri-
riced to the comforts of spe-
Cial interests and the
affluent.
The administration needs
to be reminded that social
programs and their benefici-
aries have been practicing
austerity for a long time.
Now it's someone else's turn.
"Jamboree In The Hills"
The heavy coats and sweaters
were stacked in a corner of the
dressing room and The Pitts-
burgh Stealers donned T-shirts
with "Jamboree in the Hills"
sprea d across the front in ant-
icipation of this year's annual
mid-summer classic under the
leadership of Jamboree U.S.A.
officials.
The group of Pittsburgh Steal-
ers wasn't the one headed for
Miami and Super Bowl XIII, but
instead the musical aggregation
which performs behind the
Kendalls, the father-daughter
duo which started setting the
country music world on fire
about a year and a half ago.
The January 6 performance
by the Kendalis on Jamboree
U.S.A. in Wheeling, West Vir-
ginia was a warm-up for the
July 14 and 15 country music
festival which will feature The
Kendalis as one of the top
performing acts.
"We sure are looking forward
to "Jamboree In the Hills,"
Royce said between Jvjnboree
U.S.#:. performances. "I love to
sing when people enjoy it and
from all we've heard about
"Jamboree In the Hills" it's not
only a big event for the fans but
the artists also enjoy it and
really get into the act.
For Jeannie, who has been
singing professionally for nine
years, the Jamboree U.S.A.
reputation is the epitome of
what country artists work for.
"You work hard for some-
thing you believe in and then
you enjoy the success. What
we've realized after working so
hard for nine years has brought
us closer together as a family.
Even though we were a close
family" before, we're much
closer now."
Royce echoed her sentiments.
"it's a very fulfilling thing
we've always wanted and
always worked for. I always
knew we had a different sound
so I told myself to 'just hang in
there.'
"We've always been to-
gether," he added, "and now
here we are starting another
year on the heels of the bus-
lest year of our lives. We just
want to work to make this year
as good as 1978."
In 1978, The Kendalls knocked
music world on its heels with
"Heaven's Just A Sin Away."
The Number One hit was quick-
ly followed by "It Don't Feel
Like Sinnin' to Me" and "Pitts-
• burgh Stealers."
Both Royce and Jeannie feel
that The Kendalls worked hard
enough at paying their dues that
the pressures of being success-
ful are worth every hit tune they
record.
"I really don't feel the pre-
sures that much," Jeannie said,
"Because we worked so hard
getting, that first number one
song. i just love the success and
keep looking forward to more
hit tunes."
Her father added, "I'm really
an easy going person so the
pressures really don't bother
me that much, and we've al-
ways liked to travel so as we do
we look for new material and
hope that every record to make
ds good enot/gh to be another
number one record.
"Everyone likes to be succ-
essful and I think our sound is
such that we can change with
the times. Our sound has
arrived. It's a different sound
that young people appreciate,
as well as those who like the
heavy country sound.
"i grew up on heavy country
musid," Royce added, "and
there are a lot of super coun-
try singers around. That's what
makes us work harder, and it
makes us appreciate our succ-
ess even more," he added.
As the cold winter winds blow
snow over their path to one-
night stands, "The Kendalls,
and their entire family- consist-
ing of The Pittsburgh Stealers-
say they are anxiously looking
forward to the summer months
ahead and a return to the
Wheeling area for the annual
mid- summer classic that's be-
coming a tradition in country
music- "'Jamboree In the
Hills."
Helping Prevent Cancer
Extracts of wheat sprouts,
mung beaus, and lentils display
a powerful action against chem-
ical mutagens in bacterial tests
and are being examined for
cancer-preventing ability in
mice, it was reported recently
at the 34th Southwest Regional
Meeting of the American Chem-
ical Society in Corpus Christi,
Texas
If animal studies bear out
results obtained so far on bact-
eria, "it would lend support to
the dietary goals recommended
by the McGovern subcommitt-
ee, that is less meat, fat, and
more vegetables, fruits, and
whole grains in the American
diet," reported Dr. Chiu-Nan lai
of the University of Texas Sy-
stem Cancer Center, Houston.
Coauthors of the report are Drs.
Betty J. Dabney and Charles R.
Shaw.
Chlorophyll is the major act-
ive constituent of wheat extract.
In green plants chlorophyll is
responsible for converting sun-
light into chemical energy. By
itself, chlorophyll is a patent
inhibitor of Be chemical mut-
agens, requiring only small
amounts to produce an effect,
said Dr. Lai in a telephone
interview.
Application of extract to pot-
ent chemical mutagens such as
2- acetylamionfluorene
diminished activity in the Ames
test for mutagens by up to 99
percent. The popular Ames test
measures the ability of chem-
icals to mutate bacterial cells--
an indication of possible care-
inogenicity, the authors say in a
summary of their report.
A reasonably low level of
extract strongly inhibited the
activation of carcinogens;
moreover the wheat sprout ex-
tract is nontoxic even at high
levels, they report. Most sub-
stances that inhibit carcinogens
are toxic at medium to high
levels.
The usefulness of the extract
is limited, however, to those
chemicals which require acti-
vation by body enzymes before
they can exert a mutagenic
effect.
Raw grains and vegetables
might be recommended, based
on the authors' finding that the
inhibitory effect• declined after
heating the extract for 15
minutes at 50 degrees Celsius.
Activity also depends upon the
amount of chlorophyll in a
plant, they note, adding:
"The wheat sprout was not
unique in possessing inhibitory
activity in the mutagenic assay.
Two other sprouts, mung bean
and lentil, demonstrated
similar inhibitory activities.
However, extracts from carrots
and parsley exhibited inhibitory
activity not as patent as those of
wheat. Extracts from wheat
soaked overnight and unsprout-
ed did not demonstrate any
inhibitory activities."
Subsequent analyses revealed
that carrots and parsley con-
tain less chlorophyll than the
sprouts, said Dr. Lai.
To extend these observations
to living animals, the authors
are examining the effect of"
extract on mice treated with a
chemical known to produce
colon cancer. Results are un-
available as yet.
To prepare the extract, the
authors pounded the roots and
leaves over ice, retaining the
juice. After oentrifuging undil-
uted juice, they sterilized the
clean fluid. Only sprouts grown
from one to two weeks un.
til they were four to five in-
ches high showed any activity.
While the extract was most
effective against acetylamino-
fluorene, it also reduced the
activity of benzo (a) pyrene,
found, everywhere in the
environment. Aflatoxin B1,
found in moldy peanuts, lost
more than one-half'of its mut-
agenicity in the presence of
extract, the authors note.
National Wildlife W
"Conserve Our Wildlife" will
be the theme for the 1979
observance of National Wildlife
Week, March 18 through 24.
More than 13 million school-
children, teachers, and conserv-
'ation-minded citizens are ex-
pected to participate in the 42nd
annual observance of the week-
first proclaimed by President
Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1938 as
Wildlife Restoration Week.
A cougar, poised to spring
from a mountain crag, is this
year's poster animal. More than
400,000 copies of the cougar
poster, and another 200,000
copies of a second poster, bear-
ing photographs of 16 species of
wildlife, are being distributed to
schools and conservation
groups in all 50 states, Guam,
Puerto Rico and the Virgin
Islands.
Three hundred thousand
education kits, containing post-
ers, badges, and activity book-
lets, are being mailed to
teachers. In addition, 55,000
smaller kits are going directly
to children throughout the
country, with letters urging
them to spread the conservation
message.
"This year we want to em-
phasize the meaning of conser-
vation," said NWF President
Dr. Fred R. Scroggin, a Dry
Ridge, Ky., physician. "Conser-
vation means planning for the
future , knowing the needs of
people and wildlife, and work-
ing to make sure these needs
are met. It means using our
natural resources wisely."

Park, Utah, is an excellent
example of why we must learn

'Once the most widely dist-
ributed land mammal in the
western hemisphere, the cougar
was the target of "pest" con-
trol for nearly two centuries.
Until recently, a number of
states encouraged the killing of
cougars by paying bounties.
Today, there are only about
16,000 cougars in the western
portions of the U.S. and Canada.
Two subspecies, the Florida
panther and the Eastern coug-
ar are endangered and pro-
tected according to wildlife
management principles.
Fortunately, most states have
discontinued bounty payments,
and in many states the cougar is
managed as a game animal

Sc!entists Find Possible
-Evidence of Gravity Waves
A research team at the Un-
iversity of Massachusetts has
found experimental evidence
that they believe directly sup-
ports the existence of gravita-
tional waves.
Such waves, long hypothesiz-
ed but never directly observed,
are in some ways similar to
radio waves, but are bast -1
the forces of gravity rather than
those of electricity and mag-
netism. The existence of grav-
ity waves is one of the long-
standing but heretofore untest-
ed predictions of Einstein's gen-
eral theory of relativity.
Gravity is the force that not
only makes an apple fall to the
ground and keeps our bodies
from flying off into space but is
th,: "glue" that holds our solar
system and the universe tog-
ether.
The possible evidence for the
existence of gravitational
waves was presented by Dr.
Joseph H. Taylor, Professor of
Astronomy at the University of
Massachusetts, at a symposium
on relativistic astrophysics held
in Munich, West Germany, Dec-
ember 14-18.
The new experimental data
came as the result of a four-
year program of monitoring the
radio emissions from a pulsar
located some 15,000 light years
from the earth, in a distant
portion of our Galaxy. Pulsars
are believed to be the remains
of dying stars that have ex-
ploded, leaving behind small,.
rapidly spinning remnants so
dense that a teaspoonful of the
material weighs a billion .tons.
Millions of pulsars are thought
to exist in our galaxy, although
most of them are invisible to
even our most sensitive radio
telescopes. About 320 have been
detected, mostly by the Univ-
ersity of Massachusetts group
and its collaborators in England
and Sydney, Australia.
The pulsar monitored by the
Massachusetts scientists was
discovered by them in 1974, and
is known to be orbiting another
massive object-- perhaps
another pulsar, or perhaps a
black hole-- because its repet-
itive "beeps" of emission speed
up and slow down over a regular
pattern lasting a little less than
8 hours.
Einstein's theory predicts
that such a system should emit
gravitational waves that slovly
extract energy from the orbit,
thereby causing the pulsar and
its companion to move closer
together. As the size of the orbit
decreases, the length of time
required for the pulsar to com-
plete an orbit also decreases.
According to Dr. Taylor, leader
of the group, relativity theory
predicts that the orbit period
should decrease at a rate of one
ten-thousandth of a second par
year. The measured amount is
almost precisely this value, or
about four ten-thousandths of a
second since late 1974. Thus an
important prediction, based on
an application of Einstein's
theory that could not have been
foreseen sixty years ago,
appears to have been verified.
Dr. Taylor said the finding will
give much impetus to exper-
imental work underway at num.
erous laboratories around the
world, directed to actual det-
ection of the- gravitational
waves themselves, as well as to
further theoretical studies of
the theory of relativity.
Dr. Tayior's colleagues in this
experiment include Dr. Peter
M. McCulloch, on temporary
leave from the University of
Tasmania, and Lee A. Fowler, a
graduate student. The Univer-
sity of Massachusetts' research
on pulsars has been funded by
the National Science Foundat-
ion beginning in 1968, a few
weeks after the first pulsar was
discovered by radio astronom-
ers in Cambridge, England.
Only one pulsar, the one used
in the present study, is known to
be a member of an orbiting
pair, Dr. Taylor said. Because it
moves at a speed of over 660,000
miles per hour and is subject to
the very strong gravitational
forces exerted by its compan-
ion, this pulsar is uniquely well-
suited for detection of the eff-
ects of gravitational waves.
Observations of the orbiting
pulsar were made with the
largest radio telescope in the
world, a 1,000-foot diameter,
bowl-shaped antenna operated
by the National Astronomy and
ionosphere Center near the city
of Arecibo, Puerto, Rico. It is
the only radio telescope sen-
sitive enough to make accur-
ate measurements of the orbit-
ing pulsar.

you're building a new home or'
wcation "get-away". you know
these problems first-hand.
But you can save on con-
struction costs with careful
planning, design, and selection
of materials. A booklet from the
U.S. Department of Agriculture
tells you how. For instance,
some designs .and floor plans
are more economical than
others. It helps to use stand-
ard design sizes and standard
materials. You can Cut costs
now by leaving some finishing
details for later, or you can do
some of the simple work your-
self. But avoid cheap materails
and shoddy workmanship, since
they are no bargains in the long
run. Iligh maintenance or re-
placement costs will catch up
with you later. Money-saving
tips are detailed in House Con-
struction--I low to Reduce Costs.
You can get a copy by send-
ing 80 cents to the Consumer
Information Center. DepL 49G,
Pueblo, Colorado BI009.
Your first cost-cutting step is
careful planning. Select a home
site with firm, well-drained soil
convenient access to utilities
and sewage disposal. Orient the
house for best ventilation and
sun exposure to cut energy
costs. Maximize southern ex-
posure in colder climates to
trap the sun's heat. But avoid
sunny exposures in warm
weather areas to cut cooling
expenses.
Next, look for economies in
overall design. Rectangular
plans are most economical and
two story designs are cheaper
because less vooi area.is re-
quired. A single gable roof is
least expensive since many
peaks and valleys are costly to
build and flat roofs are ex-
pensive to maintain.
Make sure you get the most
living space for your money,
too. Keep hallways to a min-
ium and build closet space only
as deep as needed, You can save
by making rooms multi-pur-
pose centers; for example kit-
chens, dining rooms, and family
rooms can share the same
space. Wide openings between
smaller rooms make them seem
larger. And finished basements
and attics provide extra living
space for little added cost.
Take advantage of standard
sizes in materials and finish-
ings when designing interior
features. Design rooms for
standard rug widths and stand-
ard window and door sizes.
You can also save money on
materials. Buy locally and in
quantity to save on delivery
costs. Shop around for the best
prices and use cheaper supplies
when they'll do the job. But
never compromise on struct-
ural lumber, paint, or mech-
anical and electrical equip-
ment. Buy the best you can
afford on those items that will
be difficult or expensive to
replace later.
When you order a copy of
House Construction--How to Re-
duce Costs (80 cents), you'll
also receive a copy of the free
Consumer Information Catalog.
It lists more than 200 selected
free or low-cost publications
from the federal government.

TO BE EQUAL
Federal budget
a battleground
By VERNON E. JORDAN
JR.
Copley News Service
The administration is send-
Ing strong signals that the
next budget will be an "aust-
erity" budget, with deep cuts
all across the board.
Well, almost all across the
board. Military spending will
go up. Some federal opera-
tions will be held to an in-
crease roughly comparable
with inflation.
But the ax is being sharp-
ened to slash federal job and
housing programs.
When you consider the
enormous waste In some fed-
eral spending programs --
shoveling out huge sums of
money to affluent suburbs
and mile-wide tax loopholes
and tax subsidies that benefit
the rich -- cutting social pro-
grams is outrageous.
If sacrifices are demanded
to restrain inflation, they
should not be borne by the
poorest among us. And that's
who would take it on the chin
if the rumors coming out of
Washington are accurate.
Poor people depend on fed-
eral job creation programs
and subsidized housing. They
need the health, income
maintenance and training
programs government pro-
vides.
And those programs aren't
just frills, icing on the cake.
No, they have become essen-
tial for survival. Cut those
programs and you cut the
• few strands left on the inade-
quate safety net our society
places beneath the poor. Cuts
in those programs would de-
liver a fatal blow to many
people's lives and hopes.
If the government is se-
rious about trimming federal
spending, those programs
should be the last to be cut,
not the first. Other targets
are far more inviting, and
would not result in worsening
the already desperate situa-
tion many people find them-
selves in.
A Brookings Institution
study found that the Penta-
gon's civilian payroll in-
eludes an estimated billion
dollars of waste in unneces-
sary personnel and in inflat-
eel salaries.
Some analysts suggest mil-
itary spending could be cut
drastically with no loss in
defense firepower. Whatever
the merits of such analyses,
most people agree that the
defense establishment could
be leaner and still retain its
effectiveness.
While calling for austerity,
the President signed a bill
raising pensions for non-
wounded veterans, an act
that will add billions to the
budget over the next few
years.
And while the administra-
tion works on cutting social
expenditures that aid the clt-
ies, it is planning a multi-
billion dollar civil defense
program. No one suggests
such a program would be
effective in case of nuclear
attack. But by going through
the expensive motions of
planning a civil defense pro-
gram we're supposed to be
convincing the Russians that
we're "tough."
Another bloated budget
area can be found in the pork
barrel projects favored by
the very congressmen who
yell loudest about cutting
urban programs. The Presi-
dent acted boldly last sum- '
mer when he vetoed a rivers
and dams bill, but billions
are still spent on those non-
priority projects that benefit
relatively few people.
Another popular pork bar-
rel federal program is the
continuing massive amount
spent on highway construc-
tion, something that ought to
be a state responsibility now
that the interstate highway
system is in place.
Revenue sharing monies
are not targeted and are
given to every local govern-
ment whether it needs the aid
or not. They could be re-
placed with targeted funds
that tackle priority problems
creatively.
The reason for cutting the
budget is to keep the deficit
down, something that could
be accomplished by expand-
ing tax revenues through that
tax reform we've been
promised for so long.
So there are alternatives to
slicing programs that are
needed by the poor and by
our deteriorating cities. The
federal budget is shaping up
as a bloody battleground
where the poor become sacri-
riced to the comforts of spe-
Cial interests and the
affluent.
The administration needs
to be reminded that social
programs and their benefici-
aries have been practicing
austerity for a long time.
Now it's someone else's turn.
"Jamboree In The Hills"
The heavy coats and sweaters
were stacked in a corner of the
dressing room and The Pitts-
burgh Stealers donned T-shirts
with "Jamboree in the Hills"
sprea d across the front in ant-
icipation of this year's annual
mid-summer classic under the
leadership of Jamboree U.S.A.
officials.
The group of Pittsburgh Steal-
ers wasn't the one headed for
Miami and Super Bowl XIII, but
instead the musical aggregation
which performs behind the
Kendalls, the father-daughter
duo which started setting the
country music world on fire
about a year and a half ago.
The January 6 performance
by the Kendalis on Jamboree
U.S.A. in Wheeling, West Vir-
ginia was a warm-up for the
July 14 and 15 country music
festival which will feature The
Kendalis as one of the top
performing acts.
"We sure are looking forward
to "Jamboree In the Hills,"
Royce said between Jvjnboree
U.S.#:. performances. "I love to
sing when people enjoy it and
from all we've heard about
"Jamboree In the Hills" it's not
only a big event for the fans but
the artists also enjoy it and
really get into the act.
For Jeannie, who has been
singing professionally for nine
years, the Jamboree U.S.A.
reputation is the epitome of
what country artists work for.
"You work hard for some-
thing you believe in and then
you enjoy the success. What
we've realized after working so
hard for nine years has brought
us closer together as a family.
Even though we were a close
family" before, we're much
closer now."
Royce echoed her sentiments.
"it's a very fulfilling thing
we've always wanted and
always worked for. I always
knew we had a different sound
so I told myself to 'just hang in
there.'
"We've always been to-
gether," he added, "and now
here we are starting another
year on the heels of the bus-
lest year of our lives. We just
want to work to make this year
as good as 1978."
In 1978, The Kendalls knocked
music world on its heels with
"Heaven's Just A Sin Away."
The Number One hit was quick-
ly followed by "It Don't Feel
Like Sinnin' to Me" and "Pitts-
• burgh Stealers."
Both Royce and Jeannie feel
that The Kendalls worked hard
enough at paying their dues that
the pressures of being success-
ful are worth every hit tune they
record.
"I really don't feel the pre-
sures that much," Jeannie said,
"Because we worked so hard
getting, that first number one
song. i just love the success and
keep looking forward to more
hit tunes."
Her father added, "I'm really
an easy going person so the
pressures really don't bother
me that much, and we've al-
ways liked to travel so as we do
we look for new material and
hope that every record to make
ds good enot/gh to be another
number one record.
"Everyone likes to be succ-
essful and I think our sound is
such that we can change with
the times. Our sound has
arrived. It's a different sound
that young people appreciate,
as well as those who like the
heavy country sound.
"i grew up on heavy country
musid," Royce added, "and
there are a lot of super coun-
try singers around. That's what
makes us work harder, and it
makes us appreciate our succ-
ess even more," he added.
As the cold winter winds blow
snow over their path to one-
night stands, "The Kendalls,
and their entire family- consist-
ing of The Pittsburgh Stealers-
say they are anxiously looking
forward to the summer months
ahead and a return to the
Wheeling area for the annual
mid- summer classic that's be-
coming a tradition in country
music- "'Jamboree In the
Hills."
Helping Prevent Cancer
Extracts of wheat sprouts,
mung beaus, and lentils display
a powerful action against chem-
ical mutagens in bacterial tests
and are being examined for
cancer-preventing ability in
mice, it was reported recently
at the 34th Southwest Regional
Meeting of the American Chem-
ical Society in Corpus Christi,
Texas
If animal studies bear out
results obtained so far on bact-
eria, "it would lend support to
the dietary goals recommended
by the McGovern subcommitt-
ee, that is less meat, fat, and
more vegetables, fruits, and
whole grains in the American
diet," reported Dr. Chiu-Nan lai
of the University of Texas Sy-
stem Cancer Center, Houston.
Coauthors of the report are Drs.
Betty J. Dabney and Charles R.
Shaw.
Chlorophyll is the major act-
ive constituent of wheat extract.
In green plants chlorophyll is
responsible for converting sun-
light into chemical energy. By
itself, chlorophyll is a patent
inhibitor of Be chemical mut-
agens, requiring only small
amounts to produce an effect,
said Dr. Lai in a telephone
interview.
Application of extract to pot-
ent chemical mutagens such as
2- acetylamionfluorene
diminished activity in the Ames
test for mutagens by up to 99
percent. The popular Ames test
measures the ability of chem-
icals to mutate bacterial cells--
an indication of possible care-
inogenicity, the authors say in a
summary of their report.
A reasonably low level of
extract strongly inhibited the
activation of carcinogens;
moreover the wheat sprout ex-
tract is nontoxic even at high
levels, they report. Most sub-
stances that inhibit carcinogens
are toxic at medium to high
levels.
The usefulness of the extract
is limited, however, to those
chemicals which require acti-
vation by body enzymes before
they can exert a mutagenic
effect.
Raw grains and vegetables
might be recommended, based
on the authors' finding that the
inhibitory effect• declined after
heating the extract for 15
minutes at 50 degrees Celsius.
Activity also depends upon the
amount of chlorophyll in a
plant, they note, adding:
"The wheat sprout was not
unique in possessing inhibitory
activity in the mutagenic assay.
Two other sprouts, mung bean
and lentil, demonstrated
similar inhibitory activities.
However, extracts from carrots
and parsley exhibited inhibitory
activity not as patent as those of
wheat. Extracts from wheat
soaked overnight and unsprout-
ed did not demonstrate any
inhibitory activities."
Subsequent analyses revealed
that carrots and parsley con-
tain less chlorophyll than the
sprouts, said Dr. Lai.
To extend these observations
to living animals, the authors
are examining the effect of"
extract on mice treated with a
chemical known to produce
colon cancer. Results are un-
available as yet.
To prepare the extract, the
authors pounded the roots and
leaves over ice, retaining the
juice. After oentrifuging undil-
uted juice, they sterilized the
clean fluid. Only sprouts grown
from one to two weeks un.
til they were four to five in-
ches high showed any activity.
While the extract was most
effective against acetylamino-
fluorene, it also reduced the
activity of benzo (a) pyrene,
found, everywhere in the
environment. Aflatoxin B1,
found in moldy peanuts, lost
more than one-half'of its mut-
agenicity in the presence of
extract, the authors note.
National Wildlife W
"Conserve Our Wildlife" will
be the theme for the 1979
observance of National Wildlife
Week, March 18 through 24.
More than 13 million school-
children, teachers, and conserv-
'ation-minded citizens are ex-
pected to participate in the 42nd
annual observance of the week-
first proclaimed by President
Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1938 as
Wildlife Restoration Week.
A cougar, poised to spring
from a mountain crag, is this
year's poster animal. More than
400,000 copies of the cougar
poster, and another 200,000
copies of a second poster, bear-
ing photographs of 16 species of
wildlife, are being distributed to
schools and conservation
groups in all 50 states, Guam,
Puerto Rico and the Virgin
Islands.
Three hundred thousand
education kits, containing post-
ers, badges, and activity book-
lets, are being mailed to
teachers. In addition, 55,000
smaller kits are going directly
to children throughout the
country, with letters urging
them to spread the conservation
message.
"This year we want to em-
phasize the meaning of conser-
vation," said NWF President
Dr. Fred R. Scroggin, a Dry
Ridge, Ky., physician. "Conser-
vation means planning for the
future , knowing the needs of
people and wildlife, and work-
ing to make sure these needs
are met. It means using our
natural resources wisely."

'Once the most widely dist-
ributed land mammal in the
western hemisphere, the cougar
was the target of "pest" con-
trol for nearly two centuries.
Until recently, a number of
states encouraged the killing of
cougars by paying bounties.
Today, there are only about
16,000 cougars in the western
portions of the U.S. and Canada.
Two subspecies, the Florida
panther and the Eastern coug-

management principles.
Fortunately, most states have
discontinued bounty payments,
