 Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON tMajor Robert S. Allen on active duty)


 WASHINGTON other night U. s. infantry troops were swim ming a river in North Carolina in a practice commando raid. As they reached the other side, one officer remarked:
 "Il bet this is the first time in history that Justice of the United States Supreme Court ever swan river at night with pack on his back"
 He was referring to It. Col Frank Murphy, now on temporary vacation from the Supreme Court who turned up in Washington for the spy trial last week looking very bronzed. and singing the praises of the U. s. Army. Justice Murphy has been living in the field for seven weeks, going on long march es, once spending three days and two nights without sleep, and com ing to know intimately the Ameri- can soldier.
 As result. he reported to high Washington officials that in his opinion the American soldier was the best-looking in the world, the best fed, and with the best hygiene. He also paid tribute to the type of young officers the army has been putting in high positions.
 Tn this war Murphy said, "our tough young generals will be giv- ing orders from the field, not the background. They are out lead- ing their troops with knives at their sides and Tommy guns strap ped on their shoulders. We are developing some great young off, cers."
 Murphy also praised Secretary of War Stimson and Chief of Staff Marshall for the vastness of the war program and the way it had been energized.
 Note: Justice Murphy went to Ft. Knox Aug. 10 for five weeks of tank training. He is paying for his own transportation and food.

in the population and the interest
shown by outsiders in the elabor-
ateness of our plans, new record
attendance is expected.
The committee in charge of the
celebration is composed of repre-
sentatives of various town organi-
zations and has already held two
meetings to discuss the problems
and formulate plans.
The contemplated activities in
clude a gigantic parade. Prizes
will be given for the best decorated
baby carriage, wagon float, boys
and girls bicycles and tricycles.
1t is hoped that a contest can be
held to select the best patriotic
costume worn by a child.
Plans are also being made to
have the various branches of the
Greenbelt Civilian Defense Corps
take part in the parade.
1t is yet to be decided whether
the celebration will be held on
Saturday, July 5, as many resid
ents of the town are now working
all day Saturday and might be
deprived of activity in the days
events if they are held on that
day.

Wild Dogs In Woods
Police Report States

An additional hazard has
appeared to those Greenbelt citi-
zens who, singly or in small
groups, like to wander through
the woods and the less populated
surrounding territory. The new
danger is that of being attacked
by wild dogs, but there is no
cause for alarm. Originally, these
domesticated dogs that had be-
come wild had been five in num-
Der. Two weeks ago the local
Police Department destroyed two
of them. The remaining three will
probably be killed shortly. Until
that time, it is suggested that
Greenbelters, and children in
particular, do not expose them
selves to danger by walking
through the woods in groups of
less than four.
Director of Public Safety
George Panagoulis reported Mon
day night at Town Council meet
ing that 16 arrests had been made
during the month of May. Dis
orderly conduct, use Of fire works
and fire arms, violation of the
shorts ordinance, reckless driving
and driving without license were
the violations for which the arrests
were made. Mr.. Panagoulis also
stated that the "Peeping Tom"
menace had been effectively
handled. There has been an epi-
demic of "BB" gun users in
Greenbelt. The Police Department
states as a policy that since the
parents of children owning these
air rifles fail to properly supervise
their use the law must take the
necessary measures.
1t has been noted that dozen
strangers have appeared recently
in the shopping center wearing
shorts with halter tops. "There is
no excuse for any violation of the
shorts ordinance, since all Green
belters have been informed of it."
Panagoulis stated. One citizen
present suggested that a police
man be stationed at the center
permanently to emf force the
"shorts" ordinance.
