Observer, Thursday, August 22,1974 Keep COOl-With x Abrasevic' To Perform At National Arts Centre your fuel pump One problem auto manufacturers have not yet solved is vapor lock. At high altitudes, or with an overheating engine on a hot day at normal altitude - especially moving slowly in bumper-to- bumper traffic - the gasoline in the fuel pump vaporizes. Then, even though in the engine's cylinders vaporized gasoline is what burns to keep the car going, the diaphragm in the fuel pump itself cannot handle gasoline in this form. As a result, nothing gets pumped past the check valve to the carburetor, which becomes starved for gasoline - and the car stalls. Obviously, you can do nothing about the outside temperature, BO you must do something about the temperature of the pump. How? Easily. First, open the hood. This alone releases much pent-up overheated air,. and starts the cooling process. Next, pour water or any other cool, non- flammable liquid slowly over the fuel pump. As soon as the pump cools, the vaporized gasoline will condense back into a liquid, and the pump will be ready to start again. Even a wet cloth laid over the pump, by absorbing heat from the pump and evaporating it, will help reduce the temperature to condense the gasoline. Vapor lock primarUy occurs in our western states due to high altitudes, the boiling point of any liquid lowers as the air pressure decreases, but shfflr driving on a hot day in snail-paced traffic can cause a heat buildup that will do the same trick. If you see the temperature gauge rising, put the car into \park\ or \neutral.\ On an incline,- however, do not use \park\ and use \neutral\ only with your left foot on the brake.! Ac- celerate-the engine to increase the speed of the fan. This will cool the engine and reduce the chance for vapor Jock to form. OTTAWA—For those who missed their North American premiere in Ogdensburg, ABRASEVIC (pronounced \Ah-brah-she-vitch\), the celebrated Yugoslav youth ensemble, will appear in the National Arts Centre Opera Aug. 27, as part of its first tour of North America. The company consists of 100 young entertainers, ranging in age from 7 to 18 years. There are two dance ensembles: a junior team of youngsters 7 to 12 years of age, and a senior (teenage) ensemble. And there are gymnasts, a choir, an orchestra, a rock group, and a number of speciality acts and soloists including ten seven-year-old boys \The Ten Igors\ and a 10-year-old soprano, Gordana Kesic, who has been described as \the wonder \voice of Europe.\ The program opens with a short comic opera about a folk hero, \Ero from Beyond the Other World\ which features dances from Dalmatia. The company also performs folk dances from the Kosovo region in southern Serbia, the '\Slavonia\ from northern Croatia, tarantellas, gypsy dances, shepherds' songs from the remote province of Vlasi, and Bulgarian and Rumanian songs and dances-all in rich and varied costumes. The company was founded in 1905, and is named after the poet Kosta Abrasevic. It is sponsored by the Arts Council of the City of Belgrade as a means of training performers and of preserving the diversified heritage of , the Balkan nation. Within the six republics of Yugoslavia (Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia, Macedonia, Slovenia and Montenegro) three basic languages are spoken, and there are two alphabets. Seventeen national minorities inhabit the 100,000 square miles, where the Roman Catholic, Moslem and Orthodox faiths are worshipped. This enormous cultural span is reflected in ABRASEVIC's performances. Most members of the troupe are ( trained from the age of four, and they ' tour only in the summer months during the school break. For many years ABRASEVIC has been visiting other countries in Europe; the Ottawa per- formance is on the last leg of its first visit to the United States and Canada, an eight-week tour which started in late June. SLC Farm Bureau Formalizing Policy t ,4 Vapor lock may not be dangerous, but it is a nuisance, so if you're driving in warm weather in a peak traffic time of day, or traveling through the western or any mountainous states - keep a con- tainer of water, especially a vacuum bottle of icewater, handy in your car. Then, if vapor lock occurs - don't let it get you steamed. Just cool it. CANTON — St Lawrence County Farm Bureau members are currently formalizing their policy development program under the leadership of Mr. and Mrs. Leslie Cook, county policy development co-chairmen. Policy development is_ theprocess^ by which Farm Bureau action is deter- mined by members at the county level and moves up to become state and-or national Farm Bureau policy. Policies of County Farm Bureau's are deter- mined by majority vote of the mem- bership. Policies of New York Farm Bureau are determined by representatives of county Farm Bureaus at an annual state meeting. Policies of the American Farm Bureau are determined by represen- tatives from each state Farm Bureau at an annual national meeting. Through th^s policy development process the members actually deter- mine the goals and objectives of Farm Bureau and keep the control of Farm Bureau in their hands, according to the Cooks. --— Small informal meetings are being held throughout the county and con- cerned Farm Bureau members are invited to take part in any one of the following area meetings: Hammond, Aug. 20 at Hammond Grange; Madridr Augr 22—at—Max Fisher's; Tri-Town area, August 22 at Winthrop Community Center; Ogden- sburg, Aug. 22, \place to be announced; Lisbon, Aug. 27 at Lisbon Library; ~ Canton, Aug. 27 at Merrill Whitmores; Potsdam, Aug. 28 at Methodist Church. All meetings are scheduled to begin at 8:15 p.m. and issues will include land use planning, agricultural labor laws and possible revisions in property tax laws. The county policy development committee working with Mr. and Mrs. Cook include George Walker and Wayne LaBarge of Lisbon, David Fishel and Bruce Nichols of Ogdensburg, Guy Cote of Hammond, Howard Hutchinson of Heuvelton and Max Tessmer of Gouverneur.

WASHINGTON (AP) - The staff- hiring off ice. for Congress has been ordered not to accept future em- ployment requests which' carry- discriminatory restrictions such as \whittonly.\i^i___^J _ _ The order was issued Monday on the heels of a copyrighted story in. the Fort Worth Star-Telegram saying that' 19 House members and one senator sub- mitted hiring requests with dis- criminatory stipulations. HoUse Speaker .Carl Albert said an inquiry by the House-Senate Congressional Operations . Committee that oversees the hiring office found \no member of Congress was personally' involved,\ suggesting the restrictions* were requested by congressmen's aides. Sen. Lee Metcalf, D-Mont., chairman of the committee, did not challenge the newspaper report of discrimination. \The authenticity of the jobr forms is apparent,\ he said/. ' Metcalf said he has ordered a new investigation of discrimination in job requests and directed that discriminatory practices be stopped. A routine study of the office last June did not disclose -any ^-evidence of discrimination, he said. Meanwhile, a former employe of the hiring office who asked that her name not be used, said the number of discriminatory employment requests involved more than 20 but fewer than 50 offices. She said it seemed that one or two of the 15 to 20 employe requests from congressional offices each day would' have some racial, religious or ethnic preference: . She also said the members of Congress may not have been aware of the discriminatory restrictions placed in their names. \We dealt primarily wfth AAs (administrative assistants) and they were the ones who^had the preferences^\ Heuvelton Fire Department Hosts Labor Day Fete The Heuvelton Volunteer Fire DepartmenUias announced that their Twenty-Sixth Annual Labor- Day Celebration will be held this year.
