Will Be Brought
To Full Strength
Council Protests
Gas Service From
Permian Oil & Gas

The village council took action
Monday evening to fully equip
and bring up to full strength,
the Caldwell Volunteer Fire
Department. The department,
under the able supervision of
Fire Chief Glen McFerren, now
has thirteen active members in
Guiding assistant chief, Frank
Tarleton.
Monday evening Chief Meier
rem asked council for permission
to buy three new raincoats and
10 new firemen's hats. The
department has also asked coun-
Gil to approve the acceptance of
two new members to the depart
ment. Awaiting approval and ac-
ceptance onto the force are
Merle Barnhart and Walton
Bill" Starr.
Under the present regulations
set up for civilian defence, of
ficials are asking that all fire
departments be maintained at
full strength with an auxiliary
of similar size.
After discussing the needs of
the department with Chief Glen
McFerren and assistant Chief,
Frank Tarleton, council also in
structed them to purchase a
stretcher and two blankets for
use on the fire truck. The offic-
ialS will make another report to
council at its next regular meet
ing.
Members of the fire depart
ment are; Glen McFerren, chief:
Frank E. Tarleton, asst. chief;
Richard Ball, Benny Fowler,
Gerald Kimnach, Fred Legraen,
Harold Mcdonald, Clayton,
"Jum" Mckee, L. E. Potts,
Robert Tarleton, Clyde Parks,
Chester Hayes and Robert Bud"
RalSton.
Demand Action
Council entered a motion in
the minutes of the Monday even
ing meeting, calling for a letter
of protects be written the public
utilities commission, Columbus,
concerning the gas service being
supplied by the Permian Oil &
Gas Co.
Continuous complaints from
customers of the company caused
the action to be taken. Copies of
letter signed by members of the
village council, Mayor Mel Johns
and the village clerk, will sent
to the utilities commission, The
Permain Oil G. Gas Co., Marietta
and Representative George Phil
pot, Columbus.
The basis for most complaints
is said to center around the COM
pany's failure to furnish ade-
quate natural gas during the
winter and the low pressure car
ried on all lines. Only last fall,
council approved ordinances
granting prices increases to the
local company and to the Ohio
Fuel Gas Co.
Ed Ball of East street appeared
at the council meeting in his be-
half and requested that the vii
lage fathers view several open
sewers which repeatedly empty
raw sewage onto his pasture
land, thereby endangering live
stock. Mr.. Ball is asking that |
council close a street running |
north and south PARALLEL to his
farm.

Pioneers Of God

WYE need also spiritual pioneers,
w persons who will move forward
TO new discoveries u God. For
most persons, Cod is still an 'un-
discovered country; and no man
can discover God Tor another
though he may testify to his own
discoveries. So in the realm Of the
spirit each must be his own pioneer;
and scmc men and women, even
from sicl.beds. unable to walk as
far as the door, have made great
discoveries Of God.
The man who is honored as a
saint by three relrions-Chrlstlan-
ity. Judaism and Mohammcdansm
-Abroham, Is sometimes known for
the wrong thing. He may be thought
Of as a travelling pioneer because he
moved several hundred miles during
his lifetime. But he WIS not a pio-
recr IN Inc "cld American mean.
Ing a that word. for the Canaan to
which he went was no unsettled
wilderness but a well-populaied
civilized country, and he never
owned the land he lived on.
Abrahams pioneering was In
the realm a. TIE spirit. We
know from Joshua 2i:2 that
even Abraham's father was an
idolater; Abraham moved out
from the pagan religion OF Ills
father and his people, 10 the dis
covery of The pno True God No
more important journey was
ever taken.
The travelling Of Abraham's feet
was Of little Importance by com.
parison. II was the travelling OF
Abraham's spirit that has most
blessed us all.

By the Assoeiofed Press


NEW BRUNSWICK, N. j., April
s.-Minnesota's Bronko Nagurski
was endowed with such size, speed
and natural talent that he prob
ably could have become an all
time All-America football star at
any position he chose.
The Nations sports writers and
broadcasters had a tough time
finding the right place for him in
the Associated Press poll, but f.
nally placed him at tackle-a mate
of wilbur (Fats) Henry, Wash
ington and Jefferson's great tackle
Of the World War I era.
In the poll to determine the all
time All-America in connection
with the National Football Hall of
Fame, Nagurski drew the third
highest vote total. beaten out only
by Red Grange and Jim Thorpe.
Nagurski Votes Split.
Bronko received 305 points for
the tackle position and 302 for
fullback for total of GOT points,
on the basis of ten for f1rst-Jeam
vote, five for second and two for
third.
Henry, a chubby bulwark on a
small college team, was so inn
pressive as a blocker of kicks and
Spiller of plays that he gained
258 points to beat out Ed Wild
seth. the Minnesota All-America
of 1886, and Cal Hubbard of little
Centenary and Geneva, who later
won additional fame as pro star
and as a major league baseball
umpire.
Alex Wojciechowicz, who cracked
the jaws of foes and radio an
nouncers alike when he was play
ing center with Fordham's Seven
Blocks Of Granite in 1935-37, and
Frank (Bruiser) Kinard, who piled
UP things for Mississippi during
the same years, won third team

The Leafs whipped Boston's

Montreal's Canadiens ended
their semifinal series with the De-

But Harry has been skating

Big Fhree of Derby Meeting
In Sprint at Jamaica Today

NEW YORK, April "a minia-

Derby was on tap today at the
Jamaica track. Battlefield, Uncle
Miltie and Big Stretch. considered
the top three Of the Derby
nominees. were due to make their
1851 debuts in the 6-furlong
Prospect Purse.
This is a far cry from the mile
and a-quarter Derby distance, but
but the sprint was expected to
provide an indication of how the
three will fare over a route. It
was likely that in the neighbor-
hood Of 10000 turf fans would
be on hand when the race is run
at 3:45 pm.
Two other Derby eligibles, Pur
Sang and Lord Putnam, and two
non-Derby candidates, Hit Back
and Nullify, also were entered in
the Prospect. but they were not
regarded in the same class with
the big three.
Workouts Are Impressive.
Mainly on the strength of his
spectacular public workout last
Wednesday. after Battlefield was
scratched from Experimental
Handicap No. l, Uncle Miltie was
expected to be the post favorite
or, possibly. co-favorite with
Battlefield.
Between races, Uncle Miltie
skipped furlongs in 1:11A
handily, causing his trainer, DR..
Andrew Colando. to remark, Nov
I know I have a At horse"
The time compares favorably
with the 1:112s chalked up by

closed fast to be third with Nullify

Battlefield, the 1850 ,two-year-

Break on Woter Hole
Helps Lew Worshom
To Additional 1862
BY the Asseeiased Press

AUGUSTA, Ga, April o.
Lew Worsham received q tre-
mendous break in his final
round in the Masters tourna-
ment yesterday, one that
meant a difference of several
hundred dollars in prize
money, He tied for third and
pocketed 81, 1890.
On the par three 18th hole,
Worsham's iron shot landed
in the water in front Of the
green. but the ball skipped
out of the hazard and onto
the green. He then dropped
a 50-foot putt for a birdie
two. #
Normally, If Worsham's ball
had remained in the water.
he would have had a penalty
stroke, a chip to the green
and probably two puts for a
five. Three strokes more on
Lewis score would have cost
him 1862.
