TWO PLAIN CITY
FIRMS ROBBED

Sheriff Homer S. Roosa was
called to Plain City Friday morn
ing to investigate two burgleries.
One at the Yoeman & Sons Eleva-
tor and the other at the Allgyer
Implement CO., owned by Ralph
Yoder. The burgleries occurred
sometime during the night, but
were not discovered until the
business opened up Friday morn
Pg.
The thieves were obviously after
money as that was all that was
taken, Sheriff Roosa said. They
broke into a filing cabinet at
Yoeman where they got $21.4O.
Nothing was taken at the imp
lement company.
The thieves gained entrence by
breaking windows at the back of
the buildings. The firms are across
the street from each other in the
west section of Plain City.

RAMSEY REPORTS
FOUR ACCIDENTS
None. However. Result
In Serious Injuries

Four automobile accidents were
reported over the weekend by
Highway Patrolman II. G.. Ram
Sey. None of them was serious.
Three cars were damaged near
New California at $40 pm. Fri
day, when heavy rain impaired
the vision of one of the drivers.
Edwin Harding, so, of Frank
lin, driving a 1941 Ford, had
stopped on Route AZ for flags put
out by highway employees paint
ing the road. Louis Vershum, of
Britton, Mich, driving a 1941
Dodge sedan, stopped immediate
ly behind Harding.
Then Carey E. Sheldon, %, of
Ashtabula, driving 1947 Mercu-
ry club coupe, who said the rain
obscured his vision, rammed into
the rear of the Versham machine
Versham, in turn, rammed Hard
ing's car, causing damage to all
three vehicles.
In another accident at New
California, Richard Irelan, 81,
Waynesville Rt. /, suffered severe
abrasions to the top of his head
when the car in which he was
driving rammed into the rear end
of large CCC highway trucking
outfit.
Ireland was passenger in car
driven by Glenn Cooper, Waynes-
vile Rt. |. Driver of the truck
was Harold Davis, %, of Cleve-
land. His truck, going north, had
just cleared the intersection with
Route 33 when Cooper rammed
it. The accident happened at 2
am, and the front end of Coop
er's 1941 Chevrolet coach was
badly damaged.
Mrs. Anna Kile, Redwood Rt.
3, received severe decorations
when the automobile in which
she was riding collided with a
mother car in front of Mummey's
tavern on the Kenton rd., at $40
p. m. Saturday.
Driver of the other car was
John Kile, So, of Redwood Rt. 3,
who was attempting to turn into
Mummey's while travelling north
on Route 81. He turned directly
into the path of car being driv-
en- south by Lou Goodman, 35, of
Toledo. Kile told the Patrolman
he did not see Goodman ap-
preaching, although he came to 6
complete stop before starting tc
turn into Mummey's.
Property damage only resulted
from the collision of two Colum-
bus motorists on the Scioto River
rd., near Fishinger..s bridge, Sat-
urday night.

1orrentiaI Rain Friday Deals
Knockout to Hopes for Corn
LESS THAN HALF
0FCROP PLANTED:
JUNE Is DEADLINE
Grain Sown Later
Good For Ensilage Only:
Buckwheat Is Suggested

Union county farmers, within
sight of victory in their race a.
gainst time with corn planting,
were completely t-distanced by
the heaviest rainfall of the year,
Friday afternoon and night.
A precipitation of 2.69 inches
was measured in Marysville, ac-
cording to Russell S. Banks, local
observer for the U. S. Weather
Bureau.
County Agent Frank Green
eisen said today that the heavy
rain probably ends all chance to
get corn planted as a grain crop.
June 25 is the absolute deadline
for planting corn as a grain crop,
he said, and it is doubtful that
fields, after Fridays down-pours,
can be worked much before that
time.
Still Good For Ensilaqe
Agronomy experts at the Ohio
State university extension SER
vice give corn planted between
June 20 and 25 about a $3.50
chance" of maturing as a grain
crop.
Corn may still be planted after
June 25, but cannot be used for
anything more than ensilage crop,
! Mr. Greeneisen added. Even so,
corn is the biggest per-acre pro-
ducer of livestock feed that we
have"
The Agent estimated that only
about so percent, or less of the
county's normal corn crop was
in the ground prior to Friday.
Farmers had been working day
and night all week to accomp-
liSh this.
Just how much damage Fridays
rain will do to the seed already
in the ground remains to be seen.
Where the water stands on it
very long, the grain may be kill
ed The fields are certain to crust
over as a result of the rain, Mr..

TRINITY LUTHERANS WILL DEDICATE
new PIPE ORGAN SUNDAY MORNING

The new Kilgen pipe organ
recently completed and installed
in Trinity Lutheran Church will
will be formally dedicated at
1920 p. m. DR.. Harold L. Yochum
president of Capital university,
Columbus will deliver the SER
mon for the occasion and the
Rev. E. j. Goedeking, pastor of
Trinity, will perform the act of
dedication. Miss Irene Hegender-
fer will be at the console and
Ernst Wenzel will direct the
choirs in their festival anthems.
At 8 p. m. Sunday a dedica-
tory recital will be played by
Ernst Daulton, organist at the
Mt. Auburn Presbyterian church
and organiSt for the National
Broadcasting Company, at Gin
cinnati. He will be assisted by the
choirs of Trinity.
The organ in Trinity church is
a large, two-manual consisting of
more than 100 pipes ranging in
size from those no larger than a
lead pencil to those over 16 feet
in lenght. 1t includes an excellent
set of Deagan chimes, a memorial
gift to Trinity congregation from
G. P. Huber in memory of his
wife, Elsie Huber.
Excellent Tone Quality.
The tonality of the organ is
magnificent and pleasing and the
many tonal contrasts make it a
most interesting musical inStru-
ment, tonally we'll proportioned
to the church and suited to the
accompaniment of the services.
The organ is installed in two
specially-constructed tone cham
berS, one on each side of the bal
cony, and is screened by a con-
ventional design of panel work.
The detached console is placed to
the front of the balcony and be-
tween the chambers, enabling the
organiSt to hear as does the con-
gregation, and watch for tonal
balance.
The Organ committee, composed
of w. J. Dasher, Paul w. Telthors-
ter, Frank Nader, Mrs. Paul M.
Kull, Mrs. Anna Brandt, and D,
A. Vetter, adviser, spent many
weeks in discussing organ plans
when the purchase of a new or
gan was voted by the congrega-
ton. After investigating numer-
Gus organ builders, the order was
placed with the Kilgen Organ
company of st. Louis, and the in
Strument was built in their large
factory in that city.
Expert designers prepared the
tonal design, as we'll as the struc-
tural details, so that the instur-
ment was designed in detail to
meet all the particular require
ments of Trinity church.
Old Organ Family
There is something of romance
about the builders of the organ,
for the same Kilgen family has

Discussion of the traffice situa-
ton and enforcement in Marys-
vile featured the meeting of
Council held in City Hall, Thurs
day night.
A delegation of citizens, all of
them fathers, brought the matter
to head when they demanded
immediate steps be taken to stop
speeding through the streets of
Marysville and enforce other reg
ulations.
Members of Council declared
they merely comprise a legislative
group and pointed to the COM
plete traffic code they passed re-
Gently to control conditions here.
The Solons promised to take such
further steps as might help i'm
prove the situation.
Crack Down" Promised
Mayor Asman and members of
the police force present likewise
promised to "crack down" on
violators in an effore to break
up the speeding and reckless driv-
ing, especially on w. Fifth and
w. Fourth SITS.
Although the delegation pull
ed no punches" and the discussion
at times became heated, the en-
tire prOcaadinpS ended in an at
mosphere of mutual understand
ing and a cooperative spirit to
get things done.
1t may even be that one of the
results of the meeting will be to
equip Marysville with two-way

4-H Campers Return from Clifton;
Report Good Time, Valuable Training

The sunrise program that was
to end their week on Saturday
morning, was spoiled by rain, but
the candle-light service of the
night before made a very beau
tiful ending to their stay.
Approximately 184 club men,
bers attended the camp. The
campers were housed in barracks
with Is persons in each, one per-
son being elected from each bar
racks to serve on the camp coun-
ell. The usual camp pranks which
we all know, were no exception
at Clifton. The campers soon
learned to open all doors careful
ly and to search their beds be-
fore getting into them at night.

Committee To Study
Street Repair Proposals

The proposed street repair pro-
ject was drawn up by Leo Grin
dell, former Union county and
Division highway maintenance
superintendent, and now a rep
resentative of the S. G. w. con-
tractors. Mr.. Grindell, together
with Councilman Wilbur Forty
and c.. L. Kingsmore, made a sur
vey of the entire village, and de-
cided that the following streets
needed repair:
Mary Place between w. Fifth
and w. Third sts.; Mulberry st.
between w. Fifth and w. Fourth
sts.; E. Seventh st. from S. Main
to S. Chestnut sts.; w. Seventh
st. from S. Mulberry to Locust
sts.; w. Ninth ST., from Chestnut
to S. Oak sts.; in the vicinity of
the H. B. Salter Mfg. co.
Total cost of these repairs
lwould run considerably higher
than the funds which the Village
has available. Consequently,
Council voted to have the street
committee and Clerk George
Scheiderer get together, decide
how much money is available for
this summer, and pro-rate it a
mong all the streets according to
urgency. The committee was al
so given power to act in gong
ahead with the repairs after final
estimates were completed.
Effort may be made to get the
H. B. Salter Manufacturing CO.,
Scots Mills, and the o. M. Scott
g. Sons CO. to help pay for the
cost of putting in good street,
substantial enough to support the
heavy truck traffic which nee
essarily travels that vicinity to
