ITALIANS SCORE
FIVE IN FOURTH

Nisei Vets left men on bases, I'M
able to connect for blows when they
counted, to go down 6-l in another
City league contest last Sunday at
Rainier. The Vets lost this time to
the italian Club.
Joker Shimizu. who kept the TIA
liam hits pretty well scattered, bump
cd into one bad inning-the fourth
when the opposition punched up
four hits, a walk and an error, to
tally its five big runs.
The Nisei tally came in the first
inning when Paul Kurose opened
with a single and George Aoyama
hunted him along After Ray Saito
had lifted a long fly into center,
Heat Heyamoto ripped a single into
left field, and Kurose scored on a
catcher's overthrow to the second
Sacker.
Vets had the bases loaded in the
sixth, seventh and eighth innings,
but failed to find the much needed
bingles to bring in the runs.

Dunbar P.T.A.
Prexy Urges Unity

Rev. ]. Daniels, newly elected
president of the Dunbar School
P.T.A., announced to the editor of
the ARIZONA SUN the need for
understanding of the work of the
Parent-Teacher Association. In a
discussion with the advisory COM
mittee of the Dunbar School group,
Rev. Daniels issued the following
declaration:
"Children's needs won't wait. It
doesn't take child long to grow
up. And growing up under unde-
sirable conditions means tragedy
to the child and loss to the nation.
BY uniting forces with others who
care about what happens to the
rising generation of Americans, you
can help to overcome these un-
wholesome influences.
Many heads are better than one.
The P.T.A. is a democratic organi-
zation, charged throughout with
democratic principles. AS a men,
ber you will have a chance to pool
your thinking with that of others
who are giving useful service in a
notable cause. In the P.T.A. you,
as an individual, count and are
counted upon.
BY joining hands with others who
are working for better homes, bet
ter schools, and better communities,
you can hasten the coming of a
better future for all children.
There's a new and better world
to be fashioned for the sake of all
mankind. But only as you unite
your efforts with those of every
other citizen can young minds and
hearts be taught the ideas, ideals,
and attitudes that will build true
and lasting peace"

Census Takers Almost
Through With County

The census takers will practlc-
ally complete their work in the
county this week, but the final re
turns will not go in before the
first of May, according to census
workers.
From stray remarks, one may
Judge that Dickinson County will
be in for surprise when the fin
al tabulations are announced Of
ficially months later. The returns
will probably show only a slight
increase in the population over
that of 1910. 1t has been COM
monty assumed that the popula-
ton figures would rise about so
percent.
One explanation Of this mis-
taken assumption is that though
houses are more numerous, fam
lilies are smaller than they were.
Another is that more people live
along the roads and in public
places, but that fewer live in Sc
cluded places, as people once did.
Now everyone who can has locat
ed in a public place or along a
passable road

POWER COMPANY TO PUT
NEW RETIREMENT PLAN
INTO EFFECT

j. P ellis, manager, Blue
field division, Appalachian Pow
er Company, announced recently
that effective May l, 1850, the
company will make available ar
improved retirement plan under
which the employees of the diy-
ision who retire at the age OF IS
will receive substantially mcreas
ed pensions.
The improved plan will pro-
vide pensions that, on the aver
age, will be over so per cen,
higher than the present plan
The plan covers not only current
ly employed persons but also flu
ture payments to those already
retired.
Under this plan, as outlined to
employees by the company, the
retired employees pension win
be based on his average annual
earnings in the five highest con-
secutive years of the last ten
years of service.
The company has had retire
ment plan in effect since Deem
Der, 1910, the cost of which has
been borne on an equal basis be-
tween workers and the company.
Under The improved plan, en-
ployee's payments will not be
higher and may be less than
would have been under the pres
ent plan. The company's pay
ments for the employees, in order
to purchase the substantially in
creased pensions, will be more
than twice what they are under
the present plan.

in the first account of flying
saucers seen in Dickinson Coun-

They report the sight of sailing
disks in the skies above Pound
River, near the mouth of Georges
Fork, Sunday. Though no other
persons saw the strange spectacle,
no one questions the tale told by
these men of established charac-
ter. The accounts, given separate
ly, varied a good deal at first, but
their reports finally blended into
single pattern.
They state that the three OF
them were searching for a lost
hound on an abandoned farm
when John Milton called, Boys,
that looks like a sasser flying
around up there!" Ayers and Vic

County's Main Industry Hit By filters

"It looks pretty bad for the
truck mines" That was the dark
sentence passed this week by an
official of the Clinchfield Coal
Corporation.
Reference was made to those
truck mines that have been oper-
ating under leases from Clinch-
field. The leaseholders were no.
titled last week that they should
cease work and that the corpor-
alton would buy their equipment
The coal dock at Lick Fork shut
down, and other docks in the
county receiving coal from Clinch
field property did likewise.
Steel is being pulled" from
number of the truck mines this
week, and some leaseholders are
taking losses running into the
thousands. At least three of the
truck mine operators state that
they will continue work, regard
less of the cancellation. They ex-
pect to sell their coal to indepen-
dent docks.
Unofficial estimates are to the
effect that more than three hun
dred men have been thrown out
Of work in the county by the clos
ing of truck mines. With slack
runs in the Big Clinchfield mines,
it hardly seems probable that
any of them will be able to find
other mining jobs.
Only speculation accounts for
the shutdown. No official word
has been received as to the cause.
1t is said that the Clinchfield
mines are going on comparatively
small orders received occasional
