Glen Echo Has
Musical Pup

Though Phil O'Brien is the Of
fetal director of Dave McWil-
liams' big orchestra that dispenses
Swing" at Glen Echo every eve
ming, he has serious rival.
The strar gest part of this is that
his rival is that white English bull
dog Jerry who perches so seriously
on the band stand every evening.
Jerry is an accredited member
Of the orchestra, even though he
does not hold a card in the mu-
sicians union. But this is not be-
cause Jerry Is not of union SYM
pathies-it Is just because the Eng
lish Bulldogs Crooners Union is
not yet organized.
But Jerry" knows his swing
and when he let's out those occa-
sional barks, yips and ow-yow-
you-w-wS. they always contribute
to rhythm-anyway, that's what
Dave McWilliams says, and no one
had better contradict him.
Jerry" no foolin', is such a
valuable member of the orchestra
that it is rumored he is looking
for promotion and also cycling
Director O'Brien very Signifi-
cantly. So, no wonder that Phil
O'Brien is looking worried. Jerry"
is a rival to look out for.
Phil says privately that he Is
planning to frame Jerry" by
breaking the tempo just when his
canine rival is going into one Of
his fanciest woof-Woofs.

Sometime ago a resident and

will or written request of some kind
setting aside $1,000 to be used for
repairs on the church building in
case it should burn.
The church treasurer on Wednes-
day morning two weeks ago, decid-
ed he would have the paper record
ed, telling some of the members of
his intention, and brought the docu-
men to the Forsyth courthouse
where he had it put on record. That
same afternoon a bolt of lightning
struck the church, setting it on fire
and burning it to the ground. The
congregation will be paid the $1,000
on the fund now being raised to
erect a new building.-Union Rep.

But, said DR.. Stack, who is lectur-

will have to take four additional
steps within the next two years if
it is to stay ahead of Alabama and
Tennessee.
These four steps, he said, are in
stallation of statewide police radio
system, annual or semi-annual in
spection of all automobiles, train
ing course in driving for all high
school students and the formation of
a statewide organization of all edu-
cation, enforcement and engineering
