Approximately $4,000 will be
saved the Union Local Board of
Education and the people of
Union Township by the farmers
of the community who turned
out and townspeople in large
numbers last week to re-
model the old Union gym into a
cafeteria and home economics
room.
Although the bond issue voted
by the citizens of the township
was sufficient to handle the con-
struction of the new gym on the
school grounds, it would not
stand the expense of remodeling
the old gym and installing the
new equipment. At a meeting
held last spring to decide wheth-
er or not to proceed with the
new gym despite the lack of
funds it was decided to do the
work on the old building entirely
with donated labor.
1t was not one of those ideas
where everybody is willing but
no one shows UP when the work
starts, either. When the board an
nounced that they were ready to
begin work on the project they
had all the men they could use.
The use of four dump trucks
was donated by Bill Ryan, Bob
Kinsey, Bob Strausbaugh, and
George Wood. Dirt to fill in the
old gym was furnished by Cone
Howard, and loaded on the trucks
by Bob Rhodes. Between Is and
20 men were on hand every day
to work.
There was no foreman or straw
boss, but, according to Robert
Knedler, president of the Union

board of education, Paul Ryan
must be given credit for keeping
the project moving smoothly. He
was on hand almost every day and
usually brought three boys along
to help.
The dirt was dumped into the
gym by the trucks which backed
down a dirt ramp made through
a breach in the wall. Joe Thier-
gartner furnished the means of
leveling the dirt with bulldozer
mounted on the front of a farm
tractor.
Other contributions on the pro-
ject included Andy Payne and
Grover Huffman on the masonry
work, Charles Call on the plumb
ing, JohnSmith on the wiring,
Bill Smith on the carpentry work.
Mr.. Knedler estimated that a
contractor would have not taken
the job for less than $4,000 while
as things stand now only about
$1,000 will be laid out for expens-
es. Most of this will be paid for
ready-mixed concrete for the
floor of the new room.
Many of the tables and other
furnishings in the new home &c
department and cafeteris will be
made by residents of the township
and donated to the school.
This is a fine example of what
can be accomplished by commun-
ity cooperation when the people
get together for such a worth
while cause.

One diplomatic informant said he
believed the Communist govern

to permit continued acceptance

Florida Police Officers
Say Northern Press
Treats Them Unfairly
BY the Associated Prsss

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. Nov. A.
Leading Florida police officers
complain that their side Of efforts
to enforce the law in interracial
trouble doesn't get a fair break
In the Northern press.
They asked Gov. Fuller Warren

The resolution cited the recent
burning of three Negro houses
near Groveland after four Negroes
were accused-and three later con-
victed-of raping a white woman.
The fourth was killed trying to
escape from officers.

The officers also cited recent
inter-racial fights at the opening
Of st. Louis and Washington
swimming pools to both Negroes
and whites, and the Chicago
stoning Of a Negroes home in a
white residential section.
Their resolution continued: "All
these cases and other similar in
