Rub-A-Dub-Dub, Three Men--NEVADA 1862
On a warm summer evening
when August had a good hold on
the county and dust and heat and
sweat were the clothes one wore
night and day, three young men
bathed in Deer Creek a mile or so
below town. Twowere miners and
the third a cowboy. Their bodies
gleaming inthe dusty gold light,
they frolicked like small boys in
the stream. All they needed to
restore their energy was a little
wet, cool, though much used,
water.
Horses grazed in the area and
occasionally one would come to
the stream to drink or pull at the
grass along the banks. The cowboy, who road a horse all day,
took 4 running leap and landed
bare on the bare back of one of
the horses nearest him. The animal didn't even lift its head, just
snorted mildly, and reached for
another blade of grass. The cowboy began an animated display of
kicking and goading the horse
even turning backward and slapping the-horse’s rump with the
flat of his hand, As the cowboy
was turning around in disgust the
horse lifted its head, shook it as
Chappie Calls For
State To Assume
Larger School Burden
Gene. Chappie, candidate for
the 6th Assembly seat has called
for legislation which would up the
states share in the cost of education.
Chappie said “property taxes
areno longer the solution to ftnancing our educational system.
At the present time", continued
Chappie, “the state contributes
approximately 38% as its share
toward the total education program. The state of California
must take on more responsibility
and increase its investment in the
school system if we are to have
quality education”.

though with regret and took off
with a jump toward the town road.
The cowboy's companions were
much amused to see him scurry~
ing to get his legs around that
horse and faced in the right direction.
Residents enjoying the evening
on their porches on the outskirts
of town heard the hurrying hoofbeats and were anxious to see who
was galloping along at such a
pace. They were not disappointed
atthe spectacle. The bare young
man's body no longer glistened
with river water or cavosted on
Fallout Below
Danger Level
Radioactive fallout levelsin
California continue to be far below those at which consideration
should be given to protective ac~tion from the standpoint of
health, according toDr. Malcolm
Merrill, state health director.
In his monthly report, the
director said that airborne activity
decreased froma statewide average ot 1.5 picocuries per cubic
meter in July to 1.1 picocuries
last month,
The report also includes the
daily radionuclide intake through
hospital diet samples from 10
areas of the state. He said these
levels also were far below those
at which protective action would
be necessary.

the horse's back. He clung to the
hide with all his strength and his
face was noticeably hidden in the
flying mane.
But the porch watchers were
quiet. When the horse and rider
reached town the miners on the
boardwalks thought it the greatest
sight they ‘dseen all month, They
stomped and yelled and fired their
guns until the horse who may have
begun with a thought of malice
grew quite serious in its flight.
Through town they went kicking
up dust that rose to the tree tops.
Not far behind but travelling
slow ér the revelers were delighted
to see another young man riding
bareback but not himself bare,
carrying a bundle which kept
breaking apart in streamers of
sleeves and plant legs and belt.
