ECLIPSE OF MOON
MONDAY AFTERNOON

Get ready for Monday aft
ernoon and evening. There's
going to be an eclipse of the
moon.
According TO advice from
the Hayden Planetarium. the
eclipse will begin at 4:4s with
totalifY over at 6:07 p. m. all
times Eastern Standard. The
phenomenon will be visible
over the entire United States.
The eclipse will be one Of
the longest possible because
both the sun and moon are as
close TO the earth as they
ever get. Persons on the
eastern seaboard will see the
moon rise in partial eclipse
in the east while the sun still
seems TO be above the hori-
zon in the west. That's be-
caus of atmospheric refrac-
ton.
As you all know. an eclipse
of the moon is caused by the
light of the sun travelling 9l.-
100000 miles against the
earth and the earth's shadow
then swinging $4,000 miles
"blacking" out the moon. So
don't get excited about that
refraction business.

Mayor Albury Refuses To Sign
Liquor Ordinance; City Council
Passes Measure Over His Veto
DOUGHTRY ABSENCE
PASSES LIQUOR LAW

William T. DoughtrY was a
mighty sick councilman this
morning in more ways than
one!
Ill last night with severe
chest and head colds. he told
The Citizen this morning. he
did not attend the regular
meeting of the City coun-
Gil last night. And through
this action the amended liquor
ordinance went through.
II happened thuslY: Mayor
willard NJ. AlburY announc-
ed TO Council that he would
not sign the twice-amended
ordinance which is directed
principally at John Black
wells saloon at the corner
of Margaret and Southland
streets in front of the Harris
Grammar School. The ordin-
ance. according 10 the second
amendment. would close the
place during school hours. II
was passed by Council with
Adams. Jim Roberts. w. E. p.
Roberts. Fulford voting for il.
and Doughtry. Monsalvatge.
Freeman against.
Mild CONSERVATION reigned
at the Council meeting last
night when the Mayor made
the announcement. According
10 the City Charter the
Mayors veto can be overrid-
den only by a two-thirds
vote. and according 10 Tho
previous voting the two
thirds was not forthcoming.
But VIM. +. DoughtrY was
not present last night. could
not participate in the voting.
and with Adams. Jim Rob-
erts. w. E. p. Roberts and
Fulford voting for. and Mon
salvatge and Freeman against.
the veto was overridden.
So DoushtrY feels twice as
bad this morning!

and there was no danger.
