Observed As Policy
inspection Weeks
Dear Presidents:

Dear Presidents:
I am hereby making this appeal to
you as l feel it is absolutely neces-
sary. Throughout the length and
breadth of the Association from Ap-
I'll s to April % will be observed as
Policy Inspection Weeks.
We have stressed the Importance
Of members having t h ir policies,
making their wills, etc. for sometime
However, some Wilyl go on and wait
until some member of the family
dies to report to the president that
the policy eannot be found.
To wait until a member dies to
get policy naturally causes a lot
of trouble for all concerned and it
cost more to get the policy as those
concerned are to 60 before a Notary
Public and make out sworn state
ment, etc.
Presidents, please govern your
selves accordingly.

Designers Concentrating on Corners
By GIodys Miller
Secretary. New York Chapter,
American Institute Of Decorators


Maybe the familiar adage,
There's nothing new under the
SUM-" is generally true, but the
newer trends in furniture ar
rangement tend to cast some
doubt on the matter.
The corners of rooms were long
forgotten and unused except for a
. costumer in the hall on which to
hang mems hats. corner cup
board in the dining room for
someone's collection OF glass and
china, and a what-not in the par
lor for bric-a-brac or potted
plants.
With the advent of sectional
furniture and the need to use the
space In room to the nth de-
gree. the corner achieved recogni-
ton. And as television grows in
popularity. the corner may become
as important to the average room
rs the fireplace has been in the
past.
Decorators have refused to place
traditional furniture diagonally
across a corner. So designers have
created seating anl storage pieces,
desks. and tables to fit snugly into
a right-angled corner which no de
a right-angled corner which no
designer could criticize.
The desk may be a one-drawer
table type which fits in between
chests of drawers. open book
cases and cabinets, a perfect
combination for teen-ager's
room-good in any corner but es-
pecially good in some Of the newer
rooms with corner windows high
from the floor.
A corner chest of drawers is a
triangle with two equal sides, but
to keep 1t from looking too severe
the designer rounds out the draw
erS.
Much experimentation has taken
place in the evolution of the cor
ner section Of a large sofa. The
earlier types completed the unit
but did not offer seating comfort
worth the cost. Designers are
busily working on the problem,
and 1t is to be hoped a solution
Is imminent.
To fill the void and provide real
convenience, the corner table was
made. Immediately these tables
became popular and now they can
be bought in every style of wood
and price range
They may be used with sectional
chairs or with regular-armed
chairs. Some are of low coffee
table height. Others are lamp
table height, and a few have leaves
that open up so that two may dine
nicely at their dining table height
corner table.
Some tables have the top shelf
cut back to provide a table that
performs two room functions: The
half-section top holds the lamp,
and the lower section is right for
ashtrays, cigarettes. books or mag
azines.
II you want to change the room
arrangement, look to your corners.

TOhe only deadly SIN / knoso
isscynicism.
- HENRY L. STIMsoN

TyHEsE are the closing words of Secretary
i Stimson's book, On Active Service"
ending vigorous statement of his faith in
mankind and in human progress. To me,
there is nothing more vitality needed in the
world today than this faith.
We Americans believe in the freedom of
men to think for themselves. We believe in
governments by majority will We want to
live at peace, with freedom and justice for
everybody.
But today powerful and aggressive force
is loose in the world, determined to extinguish
both freedom and justice.
l HAVE had long and intimate contact with
the Kremlin. From my observations it is
apparent that the basic difference between its
viewpoint and the democratic viewpoint
comes down to this: the Soviet leaders do not
trust people; we do.
Cynical of mems worth, they hold that the !
few should be allowed to dictate to the many
Having faith in mankind, we say let the
majority rule. Men at liberty to decide for
themselves Americans believe, will ultimately
choose what is right.
The difference in viewpoints shows up in
our contrasting attitudes toward other ma
tons. The Soviets trust only satellite gov
ernments taking orders from Moscow. We
believe that wherever the will of the people
governs we have friends
In THE struggle ahead, remember that his
tory is on our SIDE The Kremlin proclaims
the inevitability of the dictatorship Of the
proletariat." But history does not teach the
inevitability of tyranny. It teaches just the
opposite.
Tie wnole stream of human development
has been successful struggle of mankind for
ever-growing freedom. Dictatorships have
been overthrown by the strongest of all
human forces mans passionate desire for
liberty.
MIR Stimson was aware of these things when
he wrote of the generations succeeding his:
Let them have hope. and virtue, and let
them believe in mankind and its future, for
there is good as well as evil, and the man who
tries to work for the good, believing in its
eventual victory, while he may suffer setback
and even disaster, win never know defeat"

By the Associoted Press

NEW YORK, Oct. TT There
wasn't the weeping and wailing in
the Phillies' locker room today
that might have been expected Of
a team which has just lost
World Series in four straight
games.
The players were grim and dour
as they clomped from the dugout,
but once in their quarters, their
spirits quickly revived. They
seemed to realize that they had
put up the good fight, that a lot
of breaks went against them. but
that they really had nothing to be
ashamed Of.
"The Yankees are a pretty good
ball club, but not much better
than we are" Eddie Sawyer. their
manager, said.

win many games without runs.
How many runs did we get? Five?
That's one and quarter, a game.
You can't win much on that.
ED Ford was not really rough
today. but he was good with men
on base. We Just haven't been
hitting the last month. 1t wasn't
because the kids were jittery."
Ford Frick, National League
president, hustled in and thrust
his hand over the group surround
ing Sawyer to shake his hand.

out as a change-up pitch and
ended up as a big. fat fast ball.
But he's liable to hit anything"
Dick Sisler said the sun field at
Yankee Stadium was the worst he
ever saw.

was really trying. I'd say Vic

With two out in the ninth, he

inning.

He also said he didn't blame

williams Misses Field Goal.
The Tar Heels then showed that
their great but losing battle
against Notre Dame last week
was not q case of being fired UP
for one game as they rammed to
Georgia's 13. But Carolina went
no further and Able Williams an
gular field goal attempt was no
good.
The first half began and ended
the same way-in a scurrying Of
fensive fury by both teams.
Georgia took the opening kick
and in seven plays rammed and
passed from its Is to North Caro-
lina's 20. A series of weak passes
handed the ball to Carolina. A
bullet pass from Quarterback Nal
Cook to End Bob Walston ate up
38 yards in the drive.
Before North Carolina lost the
ball the Tar Heels powered from
their % to Georgia's 81. Hayes
passed or ran in eight out of 10
plays.
After those durries the game
went defensive with fine kicking
battle between Cardinals Dick
Bunting and Georgia's Pat Field.
Long Pass Wins Distance.
The second quarter ended with
Georgia on North Carolina's S seven.
A brilliant pass from Sub Quar-
terback Ray Prospect to zippy
Morocco covered SO yards. That
drive Immediately followed Car
olina push to .Georgia's 81. Here
again a long pass won most Of the
distance. Hayes tipped a longie
to c. c. White who juggled and
then dropped the ball. Referees
ruled he had possession on Geor-
gia's 43.
A slump in Cardinals passing
and stout Georgia line stopped
the push.
A strong Carolina third-quarter
drive ended on Georgia's II when
Pasy Rocco stole a Hayes pass.
The Carolineans missed one OF
their best scoring changes in the
final quarter when Frank Wiss-
man let another Hayes pass slip
over his fingertips. He was prac-
tically clear on Georgia's eight
yard line.

Yankees Will Get
$1,000 Eoch, }, New
Hiqh for Series
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Oct. Each win
ming Yankee with q full World
Series share will pocket about
$1,000, possibly an all-time rec
ord, for his four day workout.
Figuring on 80 shares, the
Yanks' cut of $204,275.91 comes
to a little over $500. The record
is held by Cleveland in 1948 when
each full share paid $6,772O5.
If the losing Phils also cut up
80 shares, each will be worth a
little over $4,000.
The total player pool for the
series was $486. .371.21. The second,
third and fourth place teams in
both leagues also share In the
players pool.
