Dear Mr.. Pottinger:
I received The international yes
terday morning and my eyes i'm
mediately caught the column of the
Living Memorial. I noticed when it
was first mentioned in previous is
sues of The International. Well, I
thought 1t was going to be ignored
like a lot of other things that could
help our town, such as the $50
homes which were supposed to be
built.
Humberto Gonzales, Frank Alon-
so, and 1 got together last week.
Well, 1 mentioned that Mr.. Edward
Alvarez Editors Note: Some mis-
understanding about this. More
comment about this further on) had
proposed a YMCA for Nogales. We
all agreed that this is the thing
which Nogales needs the most.
Mr.. Pottinger, could you mention
one recreation that Nogales has
besides the show? I doubt whether
anybody can answer that. oh sure,
you can go across the line and
dance. But that is going to cost a
little sum of money. And then you
just can't 20 and sit on table and
not order anything.
True, we have library, but it's
plenty far out. And it doesn't have
half the books it should have
I really don't know of a better
way to spend an evening than bowl
ing. I remember the only time we
used to bowl was when we followed
the basketball team or football team
to Tucson. Lots of times some of
the boys and T wanted to ask per-
to bowl at the Elks Lodge,
but of course we knew it was i'm
possible and that we would be turn
ed down.
We only had one place for hang
out and that was at Pomeroy's news
stand. Why I remember Mrs. Pom
eroy always running us out because
lots of the books were missing. Of
course, they had pin ball machine
in there and that kept us amused.
Then the boys used to hang-out
in back of that bar that has a pool
room. That wasn't so good, was it?
We thought we were pretty lucky
when they built that new pool hall
on Morley Avenue. Yes sir, Mr..
Pottinger, we could sure use a nice
place where we could hang-out in
our spare time.
Nogalcs has n9t had any new pub
lie bYiI'irg fQr the past 10 years.
In faJ Nogg1es has not had any,
thing .ew foc the past 10 years. I
think Il new building would certain
Iy improve the looks of downtown
Nogales.
hope the people of Nogales will
realize how bad Nogales is in need
Of some kind of recreation. 1t
would be something to be proud of. |
Sincerely,
PETER EMBRICK, JR. |

Dorien Lone Wolf Held
 Anderson 10 Face
 Hearing Sept. IS

Patrolman Amos R. Anderson of the Darien Police Department, nemesis of many Waterbury motor ists who remember him as the lone wolf of the post road has been suspended indefinitely and without pay on charges which are being withheld from the press until the accused has had full hearing on them Sept. IS. it was announced this morning by Darien Police Con- mission Chairman Chester Wendell. Anderson, who once had been in- vited on polar flight by Admr. Richard E. Bird, was suspended at midnight last evening by Darien Police Chief Edward Mugavero who also was reluctant to discuss the charges against him.
 Anderson acquired the title of the lone wolf of the post road due to his vigorous enforcement of speed laws during his 20 years on the
 force. He won nation wide fame during the first three years he was on the Darien force by recovering 70 stolen motor vehicles, seizing a quarter of a million dollars worth of illegal liquor and arresting scores of law violators during the early prohibition era.
 He won Admr. Byrd's admiration and invitation to accompany him to the South Pole for his skullful mo- torcycle riding and traffic control while serving as an escort for the explorer en route to lecture ap- pointment in Stamford in 1928.

Dental Posts Offered Vets

Portents of dismay face the na- ton as far as dental conditions are concerned, according to pr. Louis R. Siegel, Hartford, state con- sultant of procurement and assign ment for the War Manpower Com mission. The doctor reported had dental enrolment been kept at the prevailing levels prior to recent Se- lective Service changes, the nation would have suffered from a post war shortage of thousands of den- tists; but he added the government plants to enroll dental and pre-den- tai students from the ranks of re- turing veterans in courses starting this fall.
 The governments goal of 4,000 students will not entirely eliminate the shortage, but it is planned to offset a possible acute dearth of fu- ture dentists.
 Information concerning these ap- pointments may be obtained in var ious publications reaching soldiers, sailors and marines; also included will be an explanation of the finan- cial rights of the veteran under the G. I. Bill of Rights.
