Dr.. Rivard
IsDeferred

ST. CLAIR SHORES-Fol-
lowing a recent decision by
Army Headquarters, the muster
ing into full active service of DR..
Charles L. Rivard, prominent
Shores physician and an officer
in the reserve corps, has been
indefinitely deferred, it became
known today.
DR.. Rivard was originally Stat
ed to be called into active SER
vice sometime in May but has
been deferred under a ruling by
the Army that members of the
Medical and Dental professions
be granted deferred draft status.
AS a member of the Medical
Corps reserve in which he holds
the rank of LIST lieutenant, DR..
Rivard, however, was subject to
immediate call, but the Selective
Service ruling has been applied
to reserve officers as we'll.
His rating was earned by DR..
Rivard while in College and he
has seniority of ten years in the
Reserve Medical Corps. He has
also spent several training ses-
sions at Camp Custer.

New Trailer Comp Proposal
Splits RoseviIIe Commission

ROSEVILLE-A sharp alter
cation between President Will
liam Harper and Commissioner
Henry Welkenbach was precipi-
tated at the Monday session of
the Village Commission in dis
cussion of request for approval
of a trailer camp site in the viii
lage.
The verbal battle started
when Albert Ponsart of st. Clair
Shores appeared before the Conn.,
mission with a request that the
body make a commitment as to
whether or not license would
be granted for a proposed camp
located on the southwest corner
of Frazho and Gratiot.
President Harper replied that
the Commission would not make
such a promise and added that
trailer camps were not wanted
in Roseville and that he would
not extend any assurance that
the present ordinance might not
be amended before the new
camp could be constructed.
Ponsart heatedly pointed out

Refuse Draft
Deferllenis

ROSEVILLE - The Roseville
Village Commission went on
record Monday night as unani-
mously opposed to making re-
quests for selective service de-
ferments for any municipal en-
ploye.
The issue arose when Com
missioner Burns presented to the
Commission a request which had
been entered by Thomas H. Zies-
kie, an employee in the Village
Health Department Laboratory.
The request was made through
DR.. Leonard Zieskie, village ply
stefan and was referred to Burns
as Health Commissioner.
Burns. in turn. requested the
commission as a whole to con-
slider the action. 1t was pointed
out that Thomas Zieskie had
month deferment on a request
already been granted three
countersigned by Welkenbach
during his term as health COM
missioner. The Commission had
not been consulted at that time.
The resolution denying all re-
quests was made at Harper's
suggestion that such matters
were entirely up to the draft
board and the Commission
should take no part in them.
The County Board of Supervis-
ors previously took this stand.
Harper cast a vote as Presi-
dent to make the motion unani-
nous.

Commissioner welkenbach en-
tered the discussion at this point
to take issue with Harper's state
ment and point out that trailer
CAMPS were a legitimate business
and as such could not be sup
pressed.
After sharp exchange Of ar
guments, Welkenbach burst out
with the claim that "three-quar-
tiers of the people Of Roseville
are living in worse sanitary
conditions than the trailer. camp
dwellers."
The statement drew the new

Now is. the time to add to your
knowledge concerning spiders. They
neither know of your presence, nor
do they care if spectators are about.
The urge to use the swift autumn
winds for going places is the all
absorbing matter that counts. There
fore, you may see the ballooniStS
prepare for their journey, take off
and sail into the trackless blue.
You will notice the spider fastens
each of its eight feet upon the Sc

ton is decided on, the balloonist
will spin a strand of silk. to learn the
direction of the wind. Having estab-
lished this most important truth,
the weaver will anchor himself or
herself before another cable is spun
and then the spinning goes rapidly
forward. If you use a magnifying
glass, focusing it upon the spiders
feet and legs, you will see how ter
rible is the tension upon them as
the strong cords increase in number
and strength. Then, in the space Of
a second, the spinner has reversed
its position, gathered the silk cords
in the claws of the feet and sailed
into the air.
