ization.
Since that time when, seeming
ly, all Miami was in the spirit OF
receiving as well as donating to
charities, a barrage of raffleS hit
the streets.
Prominent among these was
the Liberty City Amusement
Parks 'give-away' of a 1851
Mercury sedan, scheduled for
July IL, 1851. Smaller prizes Of
fered were second prize of $50
and a third prize of $25. Pro-
ceeds were listed to be given to
the churches of Greater Miami,
with donations tabled at fifty
cents.
Then there was the Rockland
Palaces offering of a $500 Ad-
miral TeleviSion Radio-Phono
Set, benefit for the Dunbar
Nursery"
The termination date was set
for Friday, Sept. IA, 1851, dona-
tons listed at twenty-five cents.
This event was voluntarily call
ed off after the management
checked with police authorities.
Apparently, the most sought
after venture was the Heroines
of Jericho-sponsored benefit that
featured the enviable Cadillac.
With central offices located in
downtown Miami'S Owasco hotel.
BOT NV 18th ST., the streets were
clustered with tickets - in book
form - in the hands of agents
who peddled their wares. Each
OF the projects was prominently
oally-hooed and advertised. And
donors need not be present to win.
But, no sooner had Police
Chief Walter Headley had his
boys to move in, had the town
gone from jubilant anticipation
to dimmed vexation. The peoples
hope for something for appar-
emily nothing had waned, and all
expectations of joyfully riding
around in a high-powered Cad
lilac or Mercury, or sitting at
home enjoying the high-class en-
tertalnment on television, had
gone into oblivion.

Joe will collect a check of
about $4,000. Charles will re-

another likely $250,000 for tele-

held out in the case of Joe Wal

For many years Walcott kept
his eyes on the heavyweight belt

Reds and probing Allied patrols
|clasfed head-on today in scattered
battle across the jagged mountains
of the east and central fronts in
Korea.
The Communists fought desper-
ately to save their escape routes to
the north as Allied armored forces
thrust toward the new Red fortress
city Of Kumsong.
Chinese and North Korean main
forces continued to fall back along
the front ahead of heavy Allied
artillery fire.

Red offensive is expected.

In a frontline interview, 1t. Gen.
James A. Van Fleet said "the Com
munists' declared intention is still
to throw us into the sea. We do
expect third round Of the Chi
nese spring offensive. The enemy
has sufficient reserve units that
have not been in contact for some
time"
The bloodiest fighting today was
north of Inje on the eastern
front. and in the wooded hills
defending the road to Kumsong.
A. P. Correspondent George
Macarthur said the Reds north
west of Inje launched two coun-
terattacks during the day. Both
were thrown back.
In the same area an Allied
patrol crashed into q village full
of Reds. A short sharp fight fol-
lowed before the patrol returned
to Allied lines.
Strategic Hill Captured.
A pooled dispatch from the west
central front said United Nations
infantrymen captured a strategic
hill overlooking Kumwha. The
Reds fought bitterly to hold the
hill only two days ago. Today,
however, they left only a small
delaying force ON the ridgeline.
