River, Howard Baltzo. assistant reg ional director said, showed extreme ly poor returns. On the other hand. he said Herman Creek showed an excellent migration and Old Tom Creek promised to be equally good.

I axe Ny Word for 1t
By Fronk Colby

The word borough, as in Borough
Of the Bronx" ETC.. derived from the
middle English burgh, from Anglo
Saxon burg, which meant, "forti-
fled place where tribesmen could
seek safety from danger" BY de-
Ivelopment, the burgs became towns.
Boro. burg, burgh, and berg are
Iall variations in spelling. These
words remain in our language only
as suffixes in personal and place
names, such as Marlboro, Conn;
Harrisburg, Pa; Edinburg, Miss;
Edinburgh, Scotland.
The word bury" once meant
manor house" Around the manor
house developed little towns; and
thus it was that bury came to mean
town, and continues to remain as
suffix in place names such as Can
Iterbury. "By'' was a word meaning
Village, or farm" in Anglo-Saxon;
lit also is found only as Suffix in
place names, such as Whitby, and
in personal names, Colby, for ex-
lSAAAPiSb CtiC 4bCl al lLlCdll1IlS VI SOl%
by is ''cold town." or "cold place"
Ham, as in Birmingham, Noting
nam, ETC., originally was an Anglo
Saxon word used to refer to a vii
lage, or a manor with its various
outbuildings. Chester, as in Man
chester, Leicester, Worcester, ETC.,
is from the Latin castra, camp;
walled-in town or city.
Other suff1xes which evolved from
words meaning town" are: wick,
from the Anglo-Saxon vic, which
in turn was borrowed from the
Latin uicus, Village; vii, and
willie are variations of the French
vile, town; and town, itself, ap-
peared first as the Anglo Saxon tun,
meaning Enclosure; manor; village;
town." The suffix ton is a varia-'
ton of town, as in Newton, Weirton,
etc.

NEW YORK, May IA (INS)-
It is the fractions habit of all A
mericans who live west of the
Hudson to denounce New York
City as the sodom and gomorrah
Of the modern world and to paint
it's citizens as sinful voluptuaries
already in hook to bezlebub.
' If this canard make life more
tolerable to fellow citizens be-
yond the Hudson, we'll and good.
But it is a base libel withou,
support in fact or principle.
The truth is that New Workers
are a mousy inhibited lot who
would be scandalized by the re-
gular Saturday night goings-on in
any country club west of the
Palisades.
By and large, New Workers are
Industrious, home-loving citizens
who are devoted to their children
and their television and who don't
see the inside Of a night club
from one years end to another.
The fiction that they are al
ways drunk and disorderly is
just that: a fiction.
1 have given a considerable a.
mount Of thought to this legend
during the last three months as
1 have tromped up and down,
back and forth across these United
States. And I have come to the
conclusion that New York is an
oasis of sober recititude and
oasis of sober rectitude and
land.
FOR INSTANCE, drinking is a
social custom in New York, at
least in my mob. But west Of the
Hudson it seems to be a steady
habit. Understand, I'm not critic
izing: I'm simply poining out the
differences in local customs. Or
maybe the sun just reaches the
yard-arm more quirkly in other
communities.
Or possibly farsighted persons
are boarding as much liquor as
possible before new taxes, as
threatened, are imposed on the
cup that cheers.
Nonetheless, I believe a steady
diet of double martins would
make the average New Workers
stiff as a goat, particularly at
high loon. But I encountered
communities out thataway where
the double martini is regarded as
nothing more than a mid-morning
eye-opener.
On one or two occasions | was
looked upon as a nervous nellie
because / was skeptical that a
pailful of double martins and a
Swiss-on-rye constituted the best
luncheon foundation for an after
noon behind the STEERING wheel.
