ORVILLE G. FITZGERALD
Memory Expert
Is Speaker For
Knife & Fork
Orville G. Fitzgerald profes-
sionally is an insurance coun-
sellor. On the side, and he
indicates he does it for fun,
relaxation, and a fee, he is a
lecturer who convinces his lis-
teners that by a "little trying”
they can have as good a
memory as anyone. He'll at-
tempt to prove his statement*
April 7, Monday evening to
members of the Brownwood
Knife and Fork Club who have
engaged him as their guest
lecturer. The meeting is at the
Adams Street Community Cen-
ter.
Fitzgerald, whose home is
Pittsburg, Pa. has literally
given memory courses to hun-
dreds of thousands of persons
who have been members of his
audiences in most of the United
States.
Foreign language ’
AUSTIN, Texas (Spl.) -
The chairman of The Univer-
sity of Texas Classics Depart-
ment views American in-
difference to learning foreign
languages as "a failure to live
up to the expectation of world
leadership.”
Dr. Karl Galinsky believes
Americans have relied too
much on technology to stay
. ahead of other nations and not
enough on the need tp under-
stand the thoughts and
cultures of other peoples.
In Dr.» Galinsky’s opinion,
the challenge of foreign-
language educators is to find a
successful way for combining
the study of both language and
culture, to go beyond the ap-
preciation of literature that
has traditionally marked
language study.

Citizens Of
Coleman:
Please allow me to introduce
myself. I am Carol Davis. I have
lived in this fine community for
six years. My reason for seek-
ing the North Ward Council
position, is that we are living in
days of such inflation and such
high cost oDiving, that we must
try to maintain some control.
By my being a resident of the
North-Ward Community of
Coleman, I see the need for
better streets, and for an
Animal Control Dept, for the
city of Coleman.
I attended Central State
College, and graduated from
Langston University in Okla-
homa. I also taught in their
public school system for 3
years. Here in Texas, I have
taught 2 years at Cisco Junior
College. At the present time, I
1
w
F
am employed with Central
Texas Opportunities, Inc. If1
elected to this position, I would
be a servant of all people. I
would encourag# you all to go
to vote on April 5, and I ask for
your support.

Sharks’ Hearing
Swimming motions
fish or people — create low-
frequency vibrations picked up
by sharks' acute ‘hearing. If
the sound is rhythmic and reg-
ular, a shark may ignore it.
But if it is irregular, indicat-
ing thrashing and struggling,
the shark may sense easy prey
and attack.
