Pasture Awards

Several Montgomery Countians
were on the list of 1873 persons who
were awarded certificates of merit
by DR.. H. c. Byrd, president of
Maryland University recently
in "greener pastures" con-
test. The awards were made We'd
nesday at a luncheon held in Bal
timore.
Richard d. LaGarde, of Rock
vile, was one of the four area
champions; Wiley G. Griffith, Lay
louisville was named among the
county junior champions in the
Statewide contest, while Lotion
Wesley, B. w. Unglesbee, w. Law
son King, E. l.. Burdette, B. w.
Randles, Malcolm White and Merrill
King were named among the first
place community winners"
In presenting the awards DIR.
Byrd, who was introduced by
Joseph H. Blandford, chairman of
the Maryland Production and Mar
keting Administration, said that
the decline of past civilizations has
always been closely allied to a
failure to maintain good pastures.
Without good pasturage he con-
tinued, the land has no protection
against soil erosion, and as con-
sequence economic ruin follows.
DR.. Byrd predicted that as a
result Of the development of "such
fine pasturage as we see through
out Maryland" the livestock indus
try will more and more in the
future move it's activities to the
East Coast States. He attributed
the eastward trend to the lack of
adequate pastures in the western
states.

Republicans Win
County Offices
Electors Encounter New Office Type
Ballot For First Time Here Tuesday

Bluffton voters Tuesday had their
first experience with the states new
office type ballot, and those who are
in the habit of voting straight
tickets found it took them longer q
mark their ballots.
Tabulation of the vote count Tues
day night also was slowed by the
change in the ballots, for judges
were forced to count the vote for
each candidate, even when all marks
were for candidates of the same
party.
In the past, straight tickets, gener-
ally about 80 per cent of Bluffton's
total vote, could be tailed by the
simple expedient of segregating all
such ballots and adding the totals
in a quick operation.
Ballot Features
With the office-type ballot it still
is possible to vote a straight ticket
but to do so voters must make an
tx" for each candidate, instead of
voting for all by making one mark
under the party emblem at the top
of the ticket.
Each column, the one on the left
for state candidates and the other
for local candidates, contained the
names of both Democrats and Re-
publicans. Candidates of each party
were grouped together under the
title of the office for which they
were running.
Party candidates could be identii.
ed by the word Democrat" OF
Republican" appearing under eacf
name. Each candidate for which ];
vote is intended must have an "X'
in front of his name. If there j:
more than one vote for a single
office to be filled, your vote is in
valid.
Longer To Vote
1t took considerably more time tt
vote straight ticket this year, fol
the person desiring to vote fol
either all Democrat or Republican
candidates found it necessary tt
mark 16 "X"s in front of the candi
dates of each party.
Only an ak" inside the proper
space was counted as vote. Checks
dashes, circles, numerals, or any
other form of marking, deface ane
invaIidate ballot, under election
rulings.
In addition to the regular party
ballot, Bluffton voters also received
non-partisan judicial ballot and {
separate ballot for three special is
sues-the school levy,a sewage dis
posal bond issue and the Playground!

Council Acts To Provide Additional
Parking Space In Downtown District

Enlargement of the parking lot
at the rear of the Sechler and Fett
blocks in downtown Bluffton was as
sured when municipal councilmen ap-
proved removal of city-owned
building from the site, at meeting
Monday night.
In setting the stage for expansion
of parking facilities, the council sold
a small building previously occupied
by Carl Young, who was removed
last month to the Allen county home.
Purchaser of the building was
the Bluffton Gun club, which sub
mitted a bid of $25 for the struc-
ture. 1t was the only bid received.
To move the structure to club
grounds at the Bluffton airport,
building moving equipment will be
needed, spokesmen for the club said.
Following removal of the build
ing, tree stumps in the same vlcin-
ity will be removed from the
ground; the space will be graded
and converted into parking spaces
Councilmen also discussed the ad-
visibility of marking the lot to pro-
hibit careless parking, and make il
possible to get more vehicles on the
lot, especially during Saturday
afternoon and Saturday night rush
es.
In addition to the parking lot de
cision, councilmen decided to lay

new POWER UNIT
GOES ON line AT
GENERATING PLANT
Big Expansion Program Of
Central Ohio Utility is Com
pleted Here
Fifth Turbo- Generator in Opera
ton at Woodcock Plant
Wednesday

Marking the completion of a
$2,000,000 utility expansion program
here, the second since the close of
World War II, fifth turbo- generator
was put in operation at the Bluffton
plant of the Central Ohio Light &
Power company, Wednesday.
The new turbine has a rated out
put of 1880 KVA and gives the
plant a total generating capacity of
'37,500 kilowatts, according to plant
attaches, and will be ample for all
present requirements for electric
power, it was stated.
The new generator is housed in an
addition at the north side of the
plant, ground for which was broken
in April 1949 and construction has
been under way since that time.
Large Addition
The new addition to the plant
building, third since the original con-
struction in 1887, is 43 by 10 feet
with exterior walls of brick. Besides
the turbo-g generator unit, it also
houses a new boiler of 10000 pounds
of steam per hour.
The Central Ohio utility opened its
Bluffton generating plant in 1888
with one electric generator. Mount
ing demands for current have made
necessary installation of additional
equipment, the fourth generating unit
having been installed in 1947.
