ElOY MEMS CLUB

At Tuesday nights meeting the
Mems Club brought up for consid-
Grafton a project for clearing up
the tin-can sullied environs i'm
mediately adjacent to Eloy. Mem
bers decided a spot of some TWEEN
ty acres removed a mile or two
from town and at least three-quar-
ters of a mile from the highway
would serve well as a dumping
grounds. Further action will
probably be taken later.
Ground breaking is expected to
start within the week for the new
club house which it is hoped will
be. erected to a stage favorable
for summer dances and parties
within sixty days.

ANXIOUS FARMERS

Most everywhere a person might
drive along the Eloy countryside,
most any day or time of day, a
singular sight greets the eye. One
man or two or three may be seen
STOPPING or squatting, apparently
engaged in intently scrutenizing
handful of soil or clods or what
have you. To the uninitiated, this
spectacle presents a peculiar sight
that gives pause for speculation.
What could these men be doing?
Another oddity is the fact that the
right index finger-nail of these
same farmers, for farmers they
are, is worn to the quick. Could
there be any connection between
these two odd facts?
The answer to this conundrum,
as most of us know, is that every
farmer is anxiously examining his
planted seed for signs of life, hop
ing for a good stand of cotton.
Unusually late rains placed moois-
ture in the soil for planting and
for this we may all be duely
thankful. But at the same time
these same rains necessitated eth
er replanting or narrowing off
to break the crust formed on
nlanted stuff. Tender cotton
sprouts cannot penetrate this I'M
peding crust.

NEW ELoY GRAMMAR SCHOOL
CAFETERIA

Eloy may well be proud of the
new Grammar school cafeteria
now nearing completion. The
plans were well thought out and
incorporate many labor saving
and sanitary devices.
The building, "a by 80 feet, will
eventually be succeed to match
the other units of the school plant.
Floors throughout are green con-
crete, the walls and ceiling will
be in soft cream and tan.
The dining room will comfort
ably seat $50 people. Two meals
will probably be served there each
noon feeding about 800 children.
Tables and most of the serving
equipment will be on wheels to
facilitate quick and easy service
The tables will seat ten children
each and will be arranged as home
like as possible. Each table will
be presided over by a teacher to
encourage good table manners.
Before coming into the dining
room, each child will be required
to wash. A long wash trough
equipped with soap, towels and
continually running water is con
veniently placed outside.
The commodious kitchen will be
equipped with a large modern
cooking unit, two sinks, serving
tables and dish-washers. By the
way, the dish-washers are a de

State Roads
Commission
AtTopSpeed

While awaiting news from Wash
ington as to how much money will be
awarded Maryland for military &C
cess roads, the State Roads Commits
sion is moving at full speed on all
other phases of its program to I'M
prove the States highways.
Figures announced today by Major
Ezra B. Whitman, Chairman, show
that a total of 65 projects calling
for expenditures of $6,794,206 are
now in work and that jobs to be ad-
vertised for bids within the next few
weeks are expected to run into ap-
proximately $1,OOO,OO0.
In addition, there are eight pro-
jects for which bids have been open
ed, with contracts still to be award
ed, and eleven with bids still being
accepted.
This represents the fullest pro-
gram ever engaged in by the State
Roads Commission, and carries out
Governor O'Conor's plan for broad
program of road improvements thru
the State.
COMPLETION of the Philadelphia
Road as a dual highway from the
Baltimore City Line to the Delaware
State Line, one of the major achieve
ments of the present administration.
is at hand. All concrete work has
been finished and contractors are now
touching up gravel shoulders and the
parking areas. The Philadelphia
highway is the largest project ever
engaged in by the State Roads Com
mission, costing $7,3O0,OOO. Its dis
lance is 47.19 miles.
To accommodate motorists over the
Fourth of July weekend, the last
strip of road under construction, a
distance of 20 miles from Leslie Road
to Bacon Hill, will be temporarily
opened Thursday, July 3rd at 6 P. M.
as a dual highway and be returned
again Monday morning, July 7th, as
a one drive with two-way traffic,
until fully completed in mid-July.
Ceremonies marking the formal
opening of the Philadelphia Road will
be held at the State Lines joining
Maryland and Delaware Thursday,
June 26th, upon the OCCASION of a visit
to Delaware by Governor O'Conor as
the guest of Governor Bacon of that
State. Governor O'Conor will be met
at the State Line, where he will cut
a ribbon stretched across the road
designating the point where the new
dual Philadelphia highway ends. AS
the Governor crosses, accompanied by
Major Ezra B. Whitman, Chairman
of the Maryland State Roads Com
mission, Commissioners P. Watson
Webb and w. Frank Thomas, and
Wilson T. Ballard, Chief Engineer, he
and his party will be greeted by Gov
ernor Bacon and Francis V. DUPONT,
Chairman of the Delaware State High
way Commission, and Warren W.
Mack. Chief Engineer.

OLD SUSQUEHANNA
BRIDGE TO BE TORN DOWN

Ezra B. Whitman, Chairman of the
State Roads Commission, threw a
monkey-wrench into the hopes of the
people of Perryville and Havre de
Grace, last week, when he announced
that recurrent rumors that the old
double-decker bridge across the Sus-
quehanna river might be reopened to
traffic have no basis and the aban-
doned structure will be torn down as
soon as feasible.
The bride was closed last fall with
the opening of the new concrete
bridge spanning the Susquehanna. A
bill providing for the opening of the
span was passed by the last Legisla-
ture, but vetoed by Governor O'Conor
on advice of the State Law Depart
ment.
Chairman Whiteman said he hoped
to tear down the old span in the
near future to take advantage of the
currently good market for scrap iron.
Mr.. Whitman said study had con-
WINGED him use of the old tructure
was financially impractical.
Repairs aggregating from $4,000
to $4,000 would be necessary to
place the bridge in condition so that
it could be used, the commission chair
man said, and an additional $4,000
annually would be required to meet
the cost of operation.
Whitman said Third Corps Area
headquarters had once asked that
demolition of the old structure be de-
layed until the War Department deter
mined whether the span should be al
lowed to stand for the duration of
the war emergency.
Later, he said, area headquarters
told him that army officials did not
believe it necessary to maintain the
span.
Whitman said he hopes to have the
bridge taken down as soon as the
commission engineering staff has the
summer construction program well
under way.

Ie-BorreIied Attack
Worked Out at Fort Knox

FORT KNOX, KY, Aug. 20 (41.-
A brand-new wrinkle in Army train
ing was disclosed yesterday with the
announcement that Uncle Sans new
armored force and the air force are
working together to perfect an in
terlocking, double-barrelled attack.
Officers said that practice in such

which the 46th Bombardment group
at nearby Bowman Field, Louisville

The problems also involve the

Antidote for B|itz
Proves Effective
In Army Maneuvers
Destroyer Force
Concentrates Fire
On Tank Speorheods
ey the Associated Press.

1S tl1c hohNSld flSoo.
CAN'T POLK, La, Aug. 2o.--The
Army's antidote TO: modern blitz
warfare got its first real test in
Third Army maneuvers and was
found by officers to be highly capable
of dealing havoc to enemy tank
spearheads.
The new weapon is destroyer
force, or ''DF" as the Army already
has dubbed it, focusing devastating
shell fire on enemy tanks before
they can start front-line smash.
Three highly maneuverable motor
ized "DF" groups have been ordered
organized by the War Department for
the inter-Army games in Louisiana
next month, but the Third Army's
5th Corps commander, Maj. Gen.
Edmund L. Daley, unveiled a
destroyer group for preliminary test.
Thirty-seven and 75-mm. cam
mons, augmented by small infantry,
engineer, air and armored scout car
detachmentS, plus a signal unit,
blasted enemy tanks converging for
an intended power thrust.
Under this whitening fire from
close range, advancing tanks were
ruled blown apart and their crews,
cropping in heavy smokescreens, an
initiated in 50-caliber machine-gun
barrages.
Top ranking general staff officers,
including Lit. Gen. Lesley McNair,
chief of staff, and foreign observers
saw the first full dress showing of
"DF' in action resulting in
hypothetical destruction of nearly
half the "enemy's" tank strength.
This is a blitz defense for the
blitzkrieg," was the way Lit. Gen.
Walter Kruger, commanding the
Third Army, described the new in
tegrated anti-tank group.
Gen. Kruger yesterday called a
halt to the initial Third Army
maneuver problem after the Blue
forces battled through enemy lines
over a 35-mile battle front and vir-
tually routed the Red" forces. A
eritique will be held on the first
phase tomorrow and commanders
will be given free rein in the second
problem starting Sunday.
