Boy Scout Camp For
1851 Opens July 8

Plans Well Advanced For Big
gest Camping Season In Coun-
ciPs History.
Plans are well underway for the
1851 camp program for the Wash
ington Area Council, Boy Scouts of
America, which will be held at the
Sinoquipe Scout Reservation in
nearby Pennsylvania.
Gordon M. Henning, Scout Execu-
tive of the Council, has announced
that the camp, which will again be
directed by Bob Bruce, field execu-
tive, will open on Sunday, July 8,
and close on Saturday, August 10.
Reservations are now being re-
ceived from troops throughout the
area of the Council, which com
prises all of Washington County and
troops in Waynesboro, Greencastle,
Blue Ridge Summit, Mt. Alto, Mer-
cersburg, Fairview, McConnellsburg,
Rouzersville, Needmore, Amarath
and South Mountain, all in nearby
Pennsylvania.
Scout Troops, or individual
Scouts, may make reservations for
one week or longer and the cost
for each Scout will be $11.50 per
week, $500 of which must accom-
pany each application. All re-
quests for reservations must be re-
ceived at the Scout Office not later
than Saturday, June 9.
Camping by troops is being en-
couraged this year and reservations
have already been received from:
Troop 2, Hagerstown; Troop 4, Ha-
gerstown; Troop 7, Waynesboro, Pa;
Troops IT, Williamsport; Troop 10,
Waynesboro, Pa; Troop 20, Boons-
boro; Troop %, Mercersburg, Pa;
Troop 30, Mont Alto, Pa; Troop 81,
Hagerstown; Troop SIS, Hagerstown,
and Troop SO, townsville. In addi-
ton, to the troop reservations, SO
Scouts from various troops have reg
istered as individuals.
With the camp considerably i'm
proved since last summer, it is an
ticipated that not only will the camp
have its largest attendance in years,
but that the program will be one
that the boys will talk about for a
long time to come.
A medical officer will be avail
able at all times and the camp has
very fine camp hospital.
With one of the(b camp din
ing rooms in the East, and with a
staff of especially trained cooks,
parents can be assured that their
boys, while in camp, will have we'll
balanced as well as appetizing meals.
The lake provides splendid facilities
for swimming and a flotlla of boats
and canoes are also available
Much of the natural beauty of
Camp Sinoquipe has been maintain
ed and the Scouts tents will be set
out in the wooded area, which makes
a real setting for camp life.
Since not more than 100 boys can
be accommodated at the camp each
week, Scoutmasters and Scouts are
urged to get their applications in
early, to avoid being disappointed.

There will be a meeting of the

made trip to Salisbury over the
week end, in my capacity as secre-
tary of the Sportswriters' and Broad
casters Association, to meet the new
men who came into our association
when the Trenton franchise was
moved to Salisbury. l had fine
visit with them, although l have got
to admit they were little bit down
in the dumps over losing the double
header to US.
Charles R. Berry is the official
scorer: Ed Nichols, sports editor of
the Salisbury Times, covers the
games for his paper, and John w.
Downing, Jr., broadcasts the games
for radio station WBOC. The public
address system is handled by Jona-
than D. Longfellow.
Salisbury has been handicapped,
from an attendance angle, by the
rainy weather which is always pretty
bad during the month of May in
that section. AS far as the team
is concerned, they are going to make
it pretty tough as soon as they get
requirements that they are looking
for from the Philadelphia Athletics,
some of whom may have been with
the team when they arrived here
yesterday.
Jerry Levinson, who has turned
out to be one of the best fielding
pitchers in the league, came up with
a honey of play in the seventh
inning of the game with Wilmington
last Wednesday night.
Turner opened the inning with a
double to center and Stansky then
hit one back to Jerry and Turner
was trapped between second and
third. Normally, the play would
have been for the pitcher to whip
the ball to either the third baseman
or the shortstop, but Jerry raced
over and was able to get in front of
Turner, thus forcing him back to-
wards second and preventing Stan
sky from moving from first to second
while Turner was being run. down.
The play worked beautifully, as
Levinson was able to put ball on
Turner before he could get back to
second and Stansky was held at
first.
The inning was far from over,
however, as with England at bat,
Levinson cut lose with a wild pitch
on which Stansky raced all the way
to third, thus putting him in the
position to tie the score on long fly,
since there was only one out.
Manager Carnevale elected, how
ever, to try and squeeze him home,
but the strategy backfred when
pitcher England failed to bunt bad
ball and Stansky was caught off
third and was run down for the Sec
ond out. England then walked, but
Jerry took care of the situation very
nicely by striking out Claycomb,
the lead off batter, to retire the side.

OPS 10 Issue Order
Rolling Back Prices
OF Household Soaps
Calm DiSuIIe Faces
lrote Southerners on
Raw Cotton Controls

The Office of Price Stabiliza-
ton is expected to issue today an
order cutting the retail price of
most household soap a cent a bar.
Price Director Michael v. Di-
Sale announced the cut last night
in speech at the Georgetown
University Law School where he
was a student.
He signed the order yesterday
and announced at the law school
meeting that housewives will be
glad to learn that our latest order
rolls back the price of soap"
The order is expected to apply
also to tallow.
It is said to require that soap
manufacturers must peg their
prices at the levels of last Decem-
ber, which will mean a roll back
for companies which have raised
prices since then. Whether the
retailer will cut the price a penny
a bar will depend on whether he
had passed on the manufacturer
increase to the customer.
Meanwhile, the fight over the
price ceilings on cotton shifted
to Congress for a decision on
whether the stabilization shall
apply to raw cotton or cotton
textiles.

The unrufded price director
faced a large number of hostile
members of Congress from the

The Australian High Court today

lation outlaWing the Communist
Party is invalid.
The validity of the act, passed
last October by the government
of Prime Minister Robert G.. Men
zies, was challenged before the
High Court by the Australian
Communist Party and 10 trade
unions.
Australia had been the 9th
nation to outlaw the Communist
Party.
The legislation was aimed par
ticularly at Reds who had secured
a controlling hold on major labor
unions in Australia, especially in
the vital shipping industry.
Among those contesting the act
was DR.. Herbert v. Evatt, former
president of the United Nations
Assembly: External Affairs Min.

ment and once a member of the
High Court which today inval-
idated the ban. Mr.. Evatt repre-

S4,167,328 Tax Lien
Filed Against Beard
On 4 Years Income
S2,358,525, Plus Interest
And Penalties TotoIinq
$1,808.793 Sought

An income tax lien for $4,167;-
328 was filed in District Court to-
day against Samuel r. Beard,
Washington pickle merchant, who
is generally regarded, according to
the Justice Department, las one OF
the largest gambling operators on
the Atlantic seaboard."
The tax lien. largest ever filed
here in the memory of Internal
Revenue Bureau officials, will tie
up Boards bank account and pre-
vent him from selling any of his
properties.
A duplicate of the lien filed here
was later filed in Prince Georges
County Circuit Court to tie up
Boards assets in that county.
In filing the lien the Bureau of
Internal Revenue charged Beard
and his wife Lillian understated
their income for the years 1944-
1947. inclusive.
1t was the second Federal blow
in as many days against the ro-
tund Beard. A criminal complaint
charging him with willful evasion
of $478,000 in Federal income
taxes in 1914 was filed against him
in Baltimore yesterday.
Amounts Reported Not Revealed.
The tax lien charges Beard un-
derstated his income by $478,OO7
in 1914, $538.290 in 1945, $934,696
in 1916 and $4o7 ,542 in 1947.
In each of those years, the bu-
reau said, Beard filed an income
tax report and paid taxes. The
bureau would not disclose the
amount of income he reported.
This will be revealed in court, it
was explained, if he contests the
lien.
In addition to the $2,358,535 in
overdue back taxes, the Govern
ment wants interest and penalties
totaling $1,808.793.
Five years of undercover investi-
cation preceding the filing of the
criminal charges and the tax lien,
George j. Schoeneman, Commits
sioner of Internal Revenue, dis
closed. While agents were check
ing his sources of income in prior
years against his returns, Beard
filed his 1946 and 1947 returns.
Faces Hearing Monday.
Beard has been ordered to ap-
pear before United States Com
missioner Ernest Volkart in Bal
timore Monday to answer the tax
charges.
Such problems are not new to
the fat, jovial former gambler,
who lives in the 7400 block of
