WPB ORDER STOPS
DELIVERY OF new
FIRE TRUCK HERE
Priority Denied by Washington
Board Because of "Critical
Materials"
Defense Activities Here Nav be
Basis of Protest by City
Solicitor

Delivery of Bluffton's new fire
truck expected here BIZ early sum-
mer was cancelled by the War Pro-
duction Board, presumably for dura-
tion of the war, it was announced
the first of the week by Mayor w.
A. Howe.
A letter received by the mayor
from the office of NPB in Wash
ington indicated that it would be inn
possible to give Bluffton the proper
priority preference rating for pur-
chase OF the truck because critical
materials" were involved.
The fire equipments consisting of
a Mack truck was purchased by the
town council early in March at a
cost of S7,950. Funds for the pur-
pose were provided by bond issue
approved by voters at the polls last
November.
To PROTEST RULING
The WPB ruling coming from
Washington occasioned distinct sur
prise here as it has been pointed
out by district civilian defense Off
cials that Bluffton is engaged in i'm
portant defense work and should
take extraordinary precautions
against interruption Of this program.
1t had been ANTICIPATED that addi-
ton of the fire truck would material
ly strengthen the towns resources in
respect to necessary civilian defense
and a formal protest against the
Washington ruling may be made by
City Solicitor Francis Durbin, it was
indicated the first Of the week.
The fact that Bluffton has some
fire fighting equipment probably con-
tributed to the WPB decision, it was
stated by Mayor Howe.
MATTER Nor 1LosED
Altho the decision of the WIPE
likely may be considered final, there
is some possibility for further nego-
tiation on the matter thru the office
of City Solicitor Francis w. Durbin
of Lima, Mayor Howe said.
Upon receipt of the communica-
tion from the WPB, Mayor Howe in.
structed Solicitor Durbin to halt the
process of the sale of the bonds
which were to finance the purchase
of the new municipal fire fighting
equipment.
Authorization of the sale of bonds
in the amount of $3.50 to the Citi
zens National Bank of Bluffton was
given at the meeting of the towr
council last Monday night.
To AVOID EXPENSE
There is some slight possibility
that the proper preference rating
may be obtained but it is certain
that the town will not go to a lot
of expense in attempting to obtair
a favorable rating, the Mayor said
Whether Bluffton's rating in tht
fire insurance underwriters listing.
will be changed is not known. 1t il
| believed that in view of the i'm
possibility of obtaining the equip
ment at this time the underwater
will withhold the re-classification un
til the emergency is over, Mayo
Howe pointed out.
Discussion of the disposition of tn
bond funds and policies relative t.
rural fire protection will be made a
the next meeting of the town council

Banks Looks Too Good
For Green Hanbuy
Tomorrow Night
Speed, Punch, Experience
Make Billy Fovorite
In Turner Feature

Lew Hanbury, considered one of
the. towns most promising young
fisticuffers, will try to hurdle a tall
barrier tomorrow night when he
meets Billy Banks, seasoned colored
campaigner, in his first Ground test
at Turner's Arena.
Co-featured is another 8-rounder
involving Frankie Wills, a welter-
weight who has been around a few
years without attracting undue
notice, and one Stoney Lewis. 1t
should be a good scrap, but the piece
de resistance is the Hanbury-B Banks
60.
Hanbury, one-time city amateur
featherWeight champion, packs an
authoritative punch and steps smart
ly and lively for a youngster, but this
time he seems to be in over his head.
Banks is fast and accurate with a
left, hits hard with the right and
will have a decided edge in expert
ence. These are factors Lew hardly
can afford to ignore
Hanbury didn't get the schooling
most youngsters acquire before turn
ing completely professional. He
didn't have bootleg fights in small
towns and didn't get a chance to
hone his duelling weapons and pick
up small tricks of the trade that
most would-be pros learn the hard
way. Some critics say he still is far
from being polished performer.
Trained and managed by his
father, himself veteran of the ring,
young Hanbury has lost only one of
seven pro bouts, blowing the duke to
Wayman Stewart, rugged colored
boy, in his third start.
Banks most recent efforts were
not crowned with success. He lost
his last fight to Jimmy Collins of
Baltimore. Banks has met some of
the better craftsmen at his weight
and given good account of him.
self, even in defeat, hence the rea-
son for picking him tomorrow night.

away and Alsab, wound up next to
last in the Thomas E. Lynch
Memorial Handicap at Bowie race
track today as H. P. Metcalf's Star
Copy romped off with the winners
purse of $4,000.
Riverland, the even money favorite
of a small crowd of about 5000 per-

the top impost of 126 pounds,
heaviest he has ever carried, and
faltered when called on for speed
in the late stages.
Doublrab Just Saves Place.
Star Copy, the lone filly in the
field of eight, was piloted over the
mile and a sixteenth of the Lynch
in / :48 over a fast track. Jockey
Farril Zufelt rated the recent winner
of two Pimlico stakes close to the
early pace set by the sprint cham
pion, Doublrab, and placed her under
pressure in the stretch.
The 3-year-old daughter OF Trace
Call-Sun Etoile, carrying ITO pounds,
responded easily and was opening a
gap at the end. She held a two
length margin over Doublrab, Mrs.
Tilyou Christopher's big gray sprin-
ter, which just saved second money
