The globe-independent. (Hagerstown, Md.) 1943-19??, 1950-10-12

The Alsatia Club announced on
Tuesday their plans to add more
color to this years Halloween Mum
mers Parade, by the addition of over
200 Junior High and High School and
Parochial Scholl students, dressed in
costumes symbolic of the various
countries of the member nations of
the United Nations group.
Arrangements have been made
with costuming agency in Phila-
delphia, noted for their outstanding
costumes for events of this nature, to
provide the appropriate dress for
both boy and girl students, in groups
of twenty, representing the following
nations: Arabia, Argentina, Brazil,
England, France, Holland, Italy, In
dia, Mexico, Turkey and Ethiopia.
There will be ten boys and ten girls,
together with two pages and flag
carrier, representing each of these
Nations, and judging from the ac-
claim these costumes have received
in other appearances, local parade
fans are in for real treat, inasmuch
as the costumes are expected to be
in practically new condition.
Paul Barnhart, supervisor of Sec
ondary Education for Washington
County Schools, has been assigned
by Superintendent of Schools Viii
liam British the job of securing the
200 students for this feature of the
parade and the Alsatia Club is quite
pleased at this fine response from

Since l have known for sometime
that City Attorney Francis H. Urner
and Mayor H. L. Mills were ap-
preaching the parting of the ways,
and since l also knew that on Au-
gust 81 Mr.. Urner rendered his resig-
nation to the Mayor (who at that
time refused to accept it), was not
at all surprised when the news broke
on Monday morning that Mr.. Urner
was no longer the city attorney.
was, however, not only surprised,
but amazed at the manner in which
the Mayor saw fit to end his Of
fetal relations with the city attorney.
Most people believe that Mr. Urn
er's radio talk on the eve of the cleo
ton, Zone Mans Opinion" probably
did more than any other single thing
to elect the Mayor to Office, and al
though at the time of his appoint
ment there were a number who were
violently opposed to it, practically
every one to whom l have spoken
has admitted that Mr.. Urner has
been of tremendous help to the adj
ministration since they took Office.
One would have thought, there
fore, that in accepting Mr.. Urner's
resignation, which the Mayor held
in sort of pocket veto for nearly a
month and half, he would have at
least expressed some appreciation of
Mr.. Urner's services, instead of the
abrupt and, one might say, discour-
teous, four-line letter that he sent
him.
/ do not know the inside facts that
brought about this sudden accept
ance of resignation that was a
month and a half old, but 1 doubt
that, whatever the cause was, it war
ranted the almost insulting treat
ment that the retiring city attorney
received at the hands of the Mayor
of Hagerstown.

Charles VIM. Boyer

Well Known Citizen, Prominent

Was Beloved By All.

Charles William Boyer, well
known in amateur, semi-pro and
professional baseball, and also for
his activities in the theatrical field,
died on Saturday at his home, 100
w. Washington Street. He was Sc
years of age.
A native of fredericksburg, Va,
he was the son of William H. and
Sarah A. (Gore) Boyer. He moved
to Alexandria, Va, as boy, but

(known today as the Sally League)
and he held that position until the

signed in order to give his full time
and attention to his theatrical in
terests in Hagerstown.
But baseball was still in his blood
and following World War I he or
gained the Blue Ridge League and
was president the first year of its
operation, after which he resigned
to become owner of the Hagers-
town Club in the league, until he
was again forced to give up organ
lied ball because of his other bust
ness interests.
He was far from through with
baseball, however, and in 1881 he
helped to organize the Washington
County Baseball League in which
he retained an interest until his
death.
Mr.. Boyer was charter member
of the Elks in Birmingham, Ala, and
the Kiwanis in Hagerstown. He
