Control by Groups

Though composed of &c citizens
groups from every part of the city,
the Federation of Citizens Associa-
tions meetings are controlled by
several groups, it was charged last
night at the Macarthur Boulevard
Citizens Association meeting.
Gordon M. Atherholt, Macarthur
boulevard association president and
Federation delegate, who made the
accusation, declared:
The Southwest and Southeast as
sociations and the Petworth group
are running the Federation and we
are just bag and baggage they carry
along to hearings to say we repre-
sent &c citizens groups
He then asked the group for per-
mission to withdraw the Macarthur
association from the Federation If
the condition persists. The citizens
decided, however, to write to the
Federation, stating their dissatis-
faction.
The association went on record as
favoring the Park and Planning
Commission urban redevelopment
bill. Other resolutions adopted by
the group included support of the
bill to increase the powers of the
Park and Planning Commission; ap-
pointment of a new Public Utilities
commissioner to take the place OF
Gregory Hankin, and requesting for
play equipment for the parks in the
neighborhood, especially around the
Glover Archibald Parkway area.

ident. Other officers chosen were:

dent; Mrs. Prentiss Mabry, record
ing secretary; Mrs. Curtis McGhee

From Wars Chaos
Comes Xmas Poetry

One Of the finest, most cherished
Christmas gifts that will ever come
to anybody was received by Detec-
tive John Scully, his wife, Lillian,
and their l4-year-old daughter, Lii
liam, in New York city.
It was a small crumpled, rather
soiled sheet of ordinary writing pa
per, Of not very good quality. On
it was a poem, written with the free
brave plain fourishing print of a
boy-Private Robert J. Scully, bare
ly l8, who was somewhere in the
South Pacific fighting with the Unit
ed States marine corps.
The 20-line Christmas gift, a re-
vealing example Of the temper of
young men in the thick of the fight,
was entitled merry Christmas, ="
and some of its lines were written
within range of the guns of Japa-
nese:
This Christmas OiH be different
From fhe others I hare seen.
ThereH be no gifts, no church bell chime,
No sHOtO so Vhite and clean.
No chOirs singing Christmas carols,
No children Uith ne1U toys.
But I'll gladly sacrifice them all,
as UiH all the other boys
For zoe knOtO i0hy lUe're out here.
And our job ViH not be done
TIN Ue conquer every Nasi
And SET the rising sun.
So Merry Christmas to sou Nom
And to you, Dad and Sis.
And may Il be the last one
That l tUiIl euer miss.
Robert, Immediately after Pearl
Harbor, diligently pestered his ia
ther for permission to join the ma
rines. Winning over his father, not
too easily, the two of them took
turns trying to persuade Mrs. Scully
to give her consent, as Robert was
but II. She gave in after a month
and a half. The boy sailed for the
Pacific on July 8, his 18th birthday,
after training at Paris Island, S. c.
Robert, a famous left end on the
football team of Theodore Roosevelt
high school in the Bronx, graduated
with honors when he was Is.
