world where people are not much
interested in nylons but yearn for
slice of bread. If they display a
certain lack of ethical standards,
perhaps we can better understand
them now.
The stern arm of the law was
raised in warning Monday to Bluff
ton youngsters who jumped the gun
to shoot firecrackers in a premature
Fourth of July celebration-or may
be it was because school was out.
Attention was called to the fact
that to sell or discharge frecrackers
or fireworks is a violation of the
state law. Exception is made in
event of municipal or other groups
sponsoring a fireworks display under
prescribed regulations.
Just in case you happened to
wonder whether the weather of the
past week set any records for low
temperatures, we can assure you that
it didn't-altho top coats were quite
comfortable. The oldtimers still re-
call that it was SO years ago-on
May %, 1883 to be exact when a
crowd of Bluffton youths of that
day celebrated by taking a bobsled
ride out thru the country after a
heavy snowfall, passing orchards
with apple trees in full bloom. The
snow, as they remembered it, was
about foot deep but it didn't stay
long. Much of the corn was badly
damaged but wheat and fruit came
thru in good condition. An early
frost, that fall, however, added to
farmers difficulties.
In these days of shortages, we've
heard of taking along your own
sugar when going places and last
week it was suggested that maybe
the time would come when it would
be necessary to take your owr
bread-but the latest is to take your
own home, at least when going tc
college.
That's what the Franklin Farms.
worths are doing and that explains
the presence of that commodious
three-room trailer parked at the
rear of the South Lawn avenue
residence of the Millen Geigers
parents of Mrs. Farnsworth, the
former Mary Alice Geiger.
The Farnsworths and their infant
daughter expect to leave June 1C
for Wyoming where he will attend
the state university at Laramie as
a student in mechanical engineering
He previously attended school there
but was unable to have his family
with him because of lack of housing
accommodations.
He will be in college for two more
years during which time the family
expect to make their home in the
| trailer.
It's strawberry time-and if you
doubt it ask Charlie Alderman al
the A & p who has been picking
them for the past week in the patch
at his home on Cherry street
They're unusually large and if this
early picking is any indication, the
crop in this section should be q
bumper one, both in size and
quantity. Charlie says from some
81 plants he will get enough ber.
ries for all their home needs-how.
ever he doesn't intend to supply the
A & P store here from his patch.

Don Panciera, Boston's freshman

taking it from almost under Tew's
nose, on the one-yard line.
The clock showed less than two
minutes to play and, after the
Eagles were penalized a half-yard
for two much time, they rushed out
to the nine and kicked.
Tew grabbed the punt as It

Also of concern to Father Herlihy
and Coach Joe Kozik, who view the
st. Johns game the toughest on
the schedule" is the benching of
Linemen Mike Tyler, Pat Gibbons

The absence of OrMeara, how
ever, is Augusterfer's greatest blow.
OMeara wrenched his knee in the
Central game on November l and

a reputation as one Of the finest
backs in the area
Center Dick Fennell and Guard
Tommy O'Brien also will view the
game from the sidelines.
Augusterfer will be depending on
Knute Flannery, Jack George and

US. Spending
Scored By Engle
(By Associated prcssI


WASHINGTON, June 21.-
Representative Albert Engle
spoke in the house today about
what he characterized as the
ultra extravaganza" of the gov
eminent in making expenditures.
He was speaking about the
$1,000. 100000 it is intended to
give the army the coming fis-
cal year TO take care of an es-
timated 100000 men in that
branch of the armed services.
Among the expenditures that
Engle cited is the proposed con-
struction of a building in Hawaii
by the army.
At first the proposed building
was announced by the army as a
barracks, the estimated cost of
which was given as $4,000.
Gradually, the estimate increased
till it reached $488,000, when it
that the structure was
not intended as a barracks but
as an officers clubhouse.

PARIS, June 21.-The Big
Four are holding their session
this afternoon in the office of
Ernest Bevin, foreign minister of
Great Britain, and it was said
that Trieste, bone of contention
between Italy and Yugoslavia, is
the subject they are considering.
Outlook was that it will be
decided to iniernationalize
Trieste until its residents vote
TO decide whether the city
shall come under control of
Yugoslavia or Italy.
Another question scheduled to
come up at the meeting concerns
the, Dodecanese Islands, now in
possession OF Italy. As the popu-
lation of the islands is prepon-
deratingly Grecian, it was said
that they probably will be re-
turned to Greece.
