That action came in line with a
policy of the club to accept pro-
jects only after a week Of study.
George Brown, country drive
co-chairman, and Bill Watts OF
Richland appeared at the meeting
and discussed the campaign. In
spite of the club ruling, several
members volunteered after ad-
journment to place the collection
cans and formed committee un-
der the craftsmanship Of Bill Reid.
This action was taken TO avoio
further delay in launching the
campaign which starts today
throughout the nation.
With the endorsement Of ma
tional, state and local leaders, the
campaign to raise funds to COMBAT

killer, begins in Benton county
and throughout the nation with

Benton county in previous years.

Hi-Land Provides
Ponies for Kids

Child-checkmating is the word
to describe the latest innovation
of the Hi-Land Drive In theatre,
which opened Saturday night TO
crowds that assured II as a ire
mendous success.
Wen aware of the motives that
urge kids to Chamber over their
parents and nearby theatre pat
rons to seek a drink of water, q
coke or box of popcorn, sea-
soned manager Clyde Anderson
today applauded the Snowman
ship that caused the Mid-State
Theatre corporation to buy four
Shetland ponies for the little dar-
lings.
Now the half-pint who finds
heavy drama or a documentary
film not entirely absorbing, may
scoot out of the car door and
head for the pony ring, where
wait Lady" Scout" Minute"
and Pepper"
Free rides are on tap for the
youngsters both before and DUR
ing performances, Anderson stat
ed. An attendant will be on hand
to see that they mount safely
and complete the pony circuit
without mishap.
Two more ponies are expected
to join the Hi-Land stables to-
day.
Although we ask your pardon
for this as a possible "Winchell-
ISM" il is the truth that Minute
is in highly delicate condition.
Not too delicate, though, to en-
terrain the kids while pa and ma
with undivided attention watch
the show and miss no gags or
situations, no matter how fast
they reach the screen.
Later :? Well, maybe we
should have said THREE more
ponies are expected TO join the
