PR Repeal

what the voters are going to do
to the PR system when they
vote this fall" he said.
Speakers Committee Ready
A speakers committee con-
sisting of 20 members has been
organized by PAC and will con-
duct the campaign against the
PR system. Speakers will be
supplied to any organization
which wishes to hear both sides
of the PR issue. Plans call for
seeking opportunities to speak
before Parent Teacher Associa-
tions, neighborhood groups, civic
clubs and other organizations
which are civic minded and in
terested in the method of elect
ing members of city. council.
AS the campaign gets into full
swing, challenges to debate on
the PR system will be issued and
accepted by the PAC speakers
committee. Each speaker is COM
pletely conversant with the sys-
tenn and is prepared to explain
it and argue against its reten-
ton.
Membership Growth Continues
Membership growth which
has been spectacular, exceeding
that of 1914 presidential year,
continues unabated. New men,
,bers are pouring in from all CIO
Locals with the United Retail,
Wholesale, Department Store
Workers showing a marked in
crease during the last week.
PAC officials believe that the
continuous growth of member
ship in the organization is due
to interest in the repeal of the
PR system and some have ex-
pressed the belief that the No
vember election will be one of
the largest since the adoption of
the present method of conduct
ing councilmanic elections.
Chairman Rusch commenting
on the growth of PAC member
ship stated, sit may have seemed
fantastic when we set our MEM
bership goal at $4,000, but from
the present growth of the organ
ization we do not believe we
were over-optimistic. The re-
growth of our organ
ization in year when there is
no state or national election
shows that the workers and
plain people are alert and con-
scious of their political inter-
ests."
General Meeting Arranged
Plans have been made for a
PAC membership meet
ing on Monday, April 80 at
Local IL headquarters. A meet
ing for night shift workers will
be held at 1000 a. m. and for
day shift workers at 800 p. m.
will be sent to all
neighborhood and civic clubs in
terested in the PR issue to at
tend.
An important announcement
relating to the PR repeal will
be made at the April 80 meet
ing. Members of PAC are asked
10 bring along their friends and
relatives as the meeting is open
to the general public.

Their medical history from in

the tests. Ears, nose, throat, bones,

Only so seconds are needed for

Before the airmen return to

Thrust a thin stick into the

Ant Pests

TIIE problem of ants is a
Il perennial one 10 mos I
gardeners. And not only are
the ants a nuisance. but the
other insects which they bring
with them are equal pests.
Ants maintain herd of
aphids, mealy bugs and several
other sorts of insects, from
which they obtain a sweet
sticky substance which they use
as food. In order to get this
delicacy, they take the insects
underground in the fall. care
for them during the winter
months, and carry them TO sue

Templeton to Open
Cappel Series

The Cappel concert series in Con-
stitution Hall will begin on Friday,
October 10, when Alec Templeton
will present another of his mimi
table piano programs containing
serious and entertaining numbers.
On his recent concert tour, Mr.
Templeton was scheduled to appear
at Oak Ridge The name signified
nothing to the pianist and he and
his wife, driving out for the per-
formance, were considerably aston
ished at the extra military precau-
tionS taken before admitting them
Sentries covered the road from
Knoxville and members of the FB1
cautioned them on arrival to ask
nothing and say nothing about the
great activity of the encampment
Since the use of the atomic bomb
has made this place famous, Mr.
Templeton has marked Oak Ridge
and his presence there at such an
important time as an event in his
career not to be forgotten.
Next on the Cappel list will be the
return of the First Piano Quartet
for the third time on Thursday
November 8. . It's debut appearance
here was made three years ago fol-
lowing its successful radio engage
