An enterprising Kansas company has just marketed the "Wescos" cage (pictured above) for model enthusiasts. It is accurate to the real world, but the cages are supplied in the original materials. The
scale is 1:1 and, therefore, the kit will not be found in standard retail outlets. The supplier needs several months to fill each order. Cost: $8 million, subject to renegotiation.
Texas Horse Toll Up to 1,136
AUSTIN, Tex. (UPI)-Health officials say they are trying to build a solid barrier of vaccinated horses to enclose and seal off a spreading sleeping bug in South Texas by the hundreds in South Texas.
But so far nothing has slowed the mosquito-carried disease, and Agriculture Department reported a soaping death toll.
In addition, 76 humans have been struck by symptoms of the disease, and health officials said 17 of them were laboratory infected. It is seldom fatal to man, but kills 80 per cent of infected horses.
Health authorities from various agencies met Wednesday in a field clinic in a street in an effort to reach a turning point in the battle against the
Along the coasts of Texas and Louisiana, Air Force and private aircraft sprayed heavy doses of
malathion trying to saturate 6.6 million acres with the mosquite-killing chemical.
Spraying operations will have to start over after six days, since the insecticide is only effective for that long.
Most of the cases were in far South Texas, but unconfirmed reports of VEE in horses came from Louisiana and the Texas Panhandle.
Fred Maurer of the Texas A&M college of veterinary medicine described it as the most damaging animal disease in the world.
Ranchers anxious about the VEE epidemic had another worry today—an outbreak of African hog fever in Cuba. Dr.
He said it kills every pig it infects and there is no vaccine for the pig. He also asked Agriculture officials in Miami, where 3,500 Cuban refugees a month arrive on the twice-daily boat, to taminate shoes and closely check baggage in hopes of keeping the hog fever out of the country.
GARDEN CITY (UPA)—A Scott City newsman, Billy Boyer, remained firm today in his involvement with authorities about his published reports of making undercover purchase of illegal drugs at a law office.

Boyer wrote a story on the underground policies in Garden City, Reeves said, and law enforcement authorities there should be "an investigation into the purchase what was purchased, the disposition of his purchase, from whom purchased it," not a description of the pusher."
Gang War Feared in N.Y.
Asked specifically if a gang war will result, Murphy replied: "I regret that I must say there is a strong possibility of that."

The USDA has quarantine horses in Texas and the four states bordering it, and is sending them to Florida and Texas to vaccine to those five states daily.
A spokesman for one Louisiana representative said the USDA helped enforce the quarantine and expanded mosquito killing efforts. The U.S. Communicable Disease Center in Atlanta, Ga., said it is discontinuing travel to infected areas a spokesman said.
"Perhaps the saddest thing about the present situation in the United States is that it confined to a limited area—or possibly even avoided." Purcell

AAU Boss Says Pros Should Compete
"The public wants to see the best swimmers, the best track and field stars—regardless of their classification," he said.
"Pros and amateurs should be able to compete together in the Olympics," Kelly said Sunday. "The public doesn't want to have competition with those into factions on the basis of whether or not they take money."
Kelly, in Houston for the AAU National Senior Synchronized Swimming Championships, said
Kelly said amateurs should be relied on for salaries lost while they practice and compete, and should be able to endorse products and to write books about the writing without being penalized.
