Roy BonifeH
Must Take Civil
Service Exam

Come Friday, January 8, 1853
and County Welfare Director,
Roy Bonifield, will have to
take a little time off from work
and take a civil service exam
ination to see if he is qualified.
to be Geauga's welfare head.
The fact that Mr.. BonifieId
has been Geauga's welfare dir
ector for going on three years
without serious complaint from
either public or county COM
missioners, has nothing to do
with the case. Since he was
appointed in the spring of 1850
after Miss Doris Patton resigned
he has been only on a "pro-
visional" status. After he passes
the examination he will be
changed to a permanent status
and will receive civil service
protection and benefits.
The examination is an open,
competitive examination and
any qualified Geauga resident
may try their hand at it if they
wish.

The Chardon Hilltoppers
swept into an undisputed top
spot in the Western Reserve

ing from behind in the fourth
period and dropping the Wick

The Chardonites, who have
looked sharp in every game

on shaky leg. Wickliffe, with
some expert ballhandling, edged
their way into slight advantage
over the Hilltoppers in the
first half, leading by a score
of 30-33 at the gun.
With the scoreboard reading
in their favor, the Blue Devils
forged on, still further, to lead
48-43 at the onset of the
fourth.
With the minutes waning in
the last period, Willie Hannah
took advantage of three foul
shots and tied things up, 55-55.
This move gave the Hilltoppers

Fulton tailed two goals, Han

This brought the game to an

Mccormack Cites
Eisenhower S Stand
In Foreign Aid Debate

House Majority Leader McCor-
mack made Gen. Eisenhower an
issue in any moves the, Repub-
|licans may originate in the House
today to cut the 500 billion for
Ieign aid bill.
1T is going to be interesting
to see when the vote Is taken on
the Republican side how much
support Gen. Eisenhower has. -
said the Democratic floor leader.
He had just referred to mes
Isages Gen. Eisenhower sent two
Senate committees recently ad-
vising against cutting the bill
again.
81 Billion Chopped OF.
Both the Senate Foreign Rela-
Itions Committee and House For
Ieign Affairs Committee already
have chopped about 81 billion from
the $7.9 billion requested by the
President.
Administration leaders believe
they will be able to prevent an
other drastic reduction, but some
further cuts. are expected by most
observers. -.
Representative HinShaw, Re
publican, of California started to-
days debate by reading a recent
statement by Aneurin Bevan, lead
er of one branch of the British
Labor Party. Mr.. Bevan had said
the economic and fiscal policies
of the United States are doing
more damage to Western Europe
than Stain could.
Chairman Richards of the
House Foreign Affairs Commit
tee told the Californian that Mr..
Bevan represents a minority with
in a minority and is no friend of
the United States.
Mr.. Hinshaw agreed. but said
he mentioned it only to show
that this man could become a
leader in Britain and thereby af-
feet any plans this country is
making today.
Mr.. Richards said such minority
leaders exist in every country, and
constitute one of the calculated
risks.
Mccormack Quotes General.
Mr.. Mccormack then took the
floor to say he could not under
stand why Mr.. Hinshaw injected
the Bevan statement unless he
wanted to create a prejudicial
state of mind toward the bill. Mr..
McCormack quoted Gen. Eisen-
lc'ver, instead.
Although some Republicans
have talked of cutting another 81
billion or more, reliable sources
predicted a much smaller reduc-
ton is likely.
