500 Words Between Sneezes By SAUL PETT Associated Press Writer New York-About 500 words. Home with a cold, wondering what to write about. So are the kids, home with colds. But they're not wondering. They're very rlaxed, almost smug.

Is there ever again anything SO delicious in life as a cold which keeps a kid home from school and no questions asked? Now they've got a soap opera on. A woman who sounds like Lady Esther--they always sound like Lady Esther, says in rich, pear-shaped "You'll have to tell John sooner or later." In another room upstairs, the vacuum cleaner is humming. That's the Lady Esther of this house. Outside, it's been snowing since last night. The preschool kids on block are out sleigh riding.

Wonder if they saw the snow last night? Wonder if they slept? When I was a kid, I could never sleep when it started snowing. OLD JOKE The vacuum cleaner has stopped and the local Lady Esther drops in to ask, "what are you writing about?" "About 500 you say, and oh, you, kid, you ought to be ashamed. That's such an old, old joke. But still true. Well, just what is 500 words? It is an expensive telegram or a short sermon or a two-minute TV commercial or that white poster which usually hangs on the inside of hotel room doors detailing rates and a a ement's responsibilities and what to do in case of fire.

Still, that's somebody else's 500 words. Get your own, son. Uh, uh, now it starts. Here comes the local pressure group. One of our little Camills has just looked out the window and grumbled, "Heck, it's not snowing so hard now." The implication of her tone is obvious: her parents have entered into a gigantic conspiracy with all Earth's natural forces to end the snowfall before her cold gets better.

PERSONAL DUEL But about that 500 words. Well, here's an item from Managua. The president of Nicaragua challenges the president of Costa Rica to a personal duel with revolvers at the frontier settle the fuss between their two countries. Reminds me when we were in college. Remember the late nights arguing how the next war should be avoided or fought? One theory: let the chiefs of state fight it out in Another: an wrestling match.

huge French army of occupation in Germany and a huge German army in France and make the French troops marry German girls and the Germans, French girls. I don't know; it seemed kind of clever then, or did we steal the idea from "All Quiet on the Western Another news item. In Germany, it says, "Lonely Hearts" caroumeet, coin other lonely machine. hearts Just insert two deutschmarks and you get all the necessary data on a card. A fellow ought to be able to get real cute with an item like that.

He ought to, but the heck with it. Here comes the pressure bloc again, even better organized than before. The two Camilles have a prepared statement to make. Yes, what is it? "Well, we're feeling much better and it was only a little cold and it's still snowing and we haven't had a chance to go sledding and we thought, especially since the winters are getting milder all the time, we thought. No.

And that's final. I'm telling you for the last time you can't go out. But if you do, you'd better wear. Now, about that 500 words. Well, that's about 500 words.

Lester L. Coleman, in his important new book, "Freedom from Fear." Dr. Coleman believes that fear is responsible for a majority of the psychosomatic illnesses which plague so many of us today and that fear prevents those of us who are not ill from living our lives to the fullest possible extent. The importance of the problem of fear is emphasized by a famous preacher, the late Dr. Emmet Fox, who wrote: "Most schools of philosophy now teach that fear is the thing that has to be rooted out." Dr.

Fox went on to say that fear is simply the absence of love and quotes I John By DR. NORMAN VINCENT PEALE "IT IS estimated that approximately one-third of all patients have no definite body disease to account for their symptoms. It is further estimated that another third of all patients have symptoms which are in part dependent on emotional factors." DR. PEALE 4:18: "Perfect love casteth out Fear seems to creep up on Only recently I was coming fornia nonstop on one of the we ran into a heavy overcast the rest of the way.

"Mail cover" is the police term for getting a report from postal authorities on correspondence to and from someone under investigation. It discloses only information on the envelopenot the contents. Ferguson and George challenged the propriety of its use in the investigation of McCarthy, They said it is a device designed for use only by police to apprehend fugitives. Ferguson was defeated for reelection and no longer is in the Senate. George has announced he has no plan for further action to call the case to the Justice Department's attention.

McCarthy told reporters today he is writing the Justice Department to ask "what is required to bring it to their attention." SUPPLIES CIA DATA Senator William Langer N. yesterday introduced a bill to impose penalties up to $5,000 fine and three years in prison for improper use of mail cover. McCarthy meanwhile handed Gen. Mark W. Clark a file of "names and leads" to support his charges of "communism and corruption" in the supersecret Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).

Clark heads a six-man Hoover Commission team assigned to study CIA and the rest of the government's intelligence operations. He visited McCarthy to pick up the data, then flew back to Charleston, S. where he heads the Citadel, a military college. Reached by phone in Charleston, retired general said "I have chance to evaluate thot the information yet." McCarthy said he gave Clark "some of the names and some of the leads" on CIA out of his own personal file.
