Why do we say "hitting the bull's-eye?" In archery the sawn cross-section of a tree was sometimes used as a target, and the centre "eye" or ring corresponded to the present-day "gold."
Another word for the trunk of a tree is "bole," so that to hit the bole's oye-later corrupted to "bull's-eye"-meant hit- ting the target smack in the middle.

Explorer Off To The Himalayas
New York, July 1. Tho Supremo Court Justice, William Douglas, who last year drew the fire of the Russians for a vacation trip near the Russian border in Iran, to- day served notice that he in en route for another of his trips. This time he will: go to the Himalayan moun- tain range.
The 53-year-old jurist, ardent hunter, fisherman and botonist. good-humouredly described him- self as the "only self-financed spy in existence" and wickedly pointed to a recording unit he is taking along to make records of Jungle sounds and native life.
He explained that the Russians have already criticised his pro- posed mountain trip. He laughed, The Russians have already alerted by Radia Afghanistan. Pakistan and Tibet of my approaching Invasion. Most spies are paid but I'm going to pay my own way."
Mr Douglas left Idlewild pir- port at 9 a.m., GMT by air for London en route to Karachi, Pakistan, to begin a 10-weak trek of the Himalayas

Bangkok, July 1.
The two-day revolt of a Thai naval clique against the government of Premier Phibun Song- gram was smashed today by loyal government Army and Air Force units. All organised resis- tance in the abortive attempt to seize the govern- ment was ended at 3.30 a.m. GMT when the Army stormed and captured the bomb-shattered naval signal building.
The 800-man garrison there had been the centre of 48 hours of bitter fighting. The building is located half a mile from the United States Embassy, which was struck several times by 37 Jan naval shells. There were no American casualties.
