Faculty cIimPses
By Barbara Walls
ROBERT z. LESLIE

Several weeks ago Milford High
School employed another new
teacher. The students who take
English and History in the Junior
High School have discovered that
his name is Robert E. Leslie.
Bob" is a native Philadelphia.
However, his hometown now is
Upper Darby, where he and his
wife, Ruth, have been living for
several years.
Mr.. Leslie's hobby is athletics
in general, but he is particularly
interested in golf. His score is
consistently in the nineties. He is
also fond of music and dancing.
One of Mr.. Leslie's more enjoy
able outside interests is camping.
This avOcatiOnal activity is fulfill
ed and enjoyed at a summer camp
which he operates. The camp, Ker-
OdOki by name, is located at Eagles
Mere, Pennsylvania.
During World War II LES" was
a lieutenant in the Army Air
Corps. Before his discharge, Mr..
Leslie served for three years as a
fighter pilot. A portion of his stay
in the service was spent at Niagara
University. Upon his discharge.
Les" attended the University of
Pennsylvania where he received
his Bachelor and Master Degrees
in Education.
Mr.. Leslie's greatest source of
annoyance is .undiecinlined stu
dents. On the other hand, ne ap-
preciates honesty and ambition.
Mr.. Leslie chose teaching as a
profession because, "It has a GER
tain amount of appeal to me. like
working with young people. Also
this work combines two interesting
fields-teaching and coaching"

Trustees Opposed
To Stale Convention

Active opposition to the call
ing of a Constitutional Conven-
ton is being made by township
officials throughout the state, ac-
cording to the Ohio State AS
sociation of Township Trustees
and Clerks.
Ohio voters are being urged to
vote mo" on the question of
"Shall there be convention to
revise, alter or amend the con-
stitution." Edward F. Leasure,
president of the Noble county
association says this is in accord
ance with the resolution of the
association adopted at its sum-
mer convention and the action of
the legislative committee taken
at a recent meeting.
Reason for opposing the con-
vention is because the changes
proposed would centralize gov
ernment and take control away
from the people. Township Of
ficials see no good for Ohio in
proposals to deprive smaller
counties of their state representa-
tives and give control of the
legislature to the eight big cities,
or to appoint judges and most
state officials instead of letting
the voters select their own Of
ficials.

School Levies
Continued from Page One

Continued from Page One
the passage of this levy is nee
essary in order to meet the cur
rent expenses on a pay-as-you-go
basis.
The Beaver Local school dis
trict is voting on two mills for
five years. Again the levy is nee
essary to insure state funds and
also to meet the needs of an ex-
panding school program. The
program of the school has been
enlarged, especially with the
opening of an industrial arts
department. This district is now
composed of both Wayne and
Beaver townships. Since the
school rate in the Wayne dis
trict was formerly 2 mills higher
than Beaver, voting for this levy
will not increase the rate in
Wayne township, but will simply
retain the present rate.
Center Local school district is
voting on two mills for two years.
Here again, the levy is necessary
to guarantee state aid. This dis
trict has had additional costs due
to an expansion of school facili-
ties and the levy is needed to
meet the increased costs of school
operation.
Elk Local school district is vot-
ing on five mills for five years.
This district must also pass the
levy to guarantee additional
state aid. The district also faces
the problem of reduced enroll
ment which means that state
assistance is diminished and
therefore requires more local as
sistance. If the people of this
district wish to continue the
operation of their school as long
as possible, they must pass the
levy.
Supt. Secrest said, "In all of the
above districts, we are anxious
to keep on a pay-as-you-go basis
and not allow the district to get
into debt. When a community
does not adequately finance its
schools, there is always a danger
of it being discontinued. We dc
not want this to happen. Vote
for your school levy"

Cline Trial

Continued from Page One)
before the case was settled was
Bernard Carpenter, son of the
deceased, who described in his
own words the fight which oc-
Cured on the Cline farm and the
sudden death of his father.
DR.. Ham was the first witness
called and he testified that his
finding was a heart attack was
the cause of Carpenters death,
stating the cause of the attack
was an arterial hardening all
ment.
When Prosecutor u. H. Buckley
tried to get the witness to say
death could have been caused or
brought on by the quarrel and
blow, Atty. Young, counsel for
the defense objected and was sus-
tanned.
DR.. Ham was on the stand all
morning.
The widow of the victim, Mrs.
Beulah Carpenter, testified that
her husband had been i'll of a
heart ailment for some time and
went further to say the Cline
family was aware of his illness.
The same testimony was given by
Mrs. Sylvia Roe, sister of Mrs.
Carpenter.
Testimony of John Anderson
stated that he, Anderson, went to
the Cline farm with Woodrow
Carpenter, who is not a relative
of the victim, and while there,
heard Cline threaten what he
would do if Carpenter "ever
crossed the line fence again"
The purpose of his presence at
the Cline residence was to talk
about leasing land for a corn
field.
Miss Velma Carpenter, daugh-
ter of the deceased, was the last
witness to appear Wednesday,
and she told Of going to the
Cline farm with her father and
brother, Bernard, to get bull
that had strayed onto the Cline
property. She related the ensuing
quarrel in detail, mentioning that
both men had exchanged bad
words. After Cline had struck
her father, she and her brother
helped him to the family car. AT
that time, her father had large
bump on the side of his head but
she could not say exactly when
he died.
A club was presented by Atty.
Young, asking the girl if it was
the same size as that used by
Cline.
A recess was called Wednesday
afternoon for three hours, to at
tempt to settle the case out OF
court. However, this attempt
failed and court was set for 10
a. m. Thursday morning.
Thursday morning, with the
entire senior class of Caldwell
high school present in the court
room, the case was reopened,
with Bernard Carpenter called to
the witness stand. A Doctor
Jones was called but failed to be
present.

Rowing Pirkeis
Molesi Properly
In Coal Areas
Bruins Coal Mine
AT Crooked Tree
Reports Damage

John L. Lewis called his union
mine workers back to work Mon
day morning after a White House
talk with President Truman, but
not before extensive damage was
done by rowing pickets in the
Noble county area.
The Bruins Coal Co., a nom
union mine located near Crooked
Tree, was forced to shut down
Saturday, after IL truck drivers
were forced to dump their loads
of coal near Beverly. They were
then pushed around" and their
trucks were damaged by an esti-
mated 800 men. This incident
happened on a county road, ap-
proximately midway between the
mine and Beverly, where the coal
is being dumped.
Thursday afternoon, Ernest
Bruins, owner of the company
had been marched at the point
of gun from his car and then
'roughed up" by a similar band
of rowing pickets. This was over
in Muskingum county.
A caravan of pickets passed
thru Caldwell Friday and again
on Monday, after the strike was
ordered stopped. Three state
highway patrol cars accompanied
the band on Monday to prevent
trouble.
The Moscrip Mining Corp. at
Belle Valley continued operations
thruout the strike and was not
molested by pickets at any time.
Bruins Coal Co., operates "a of
its own trucks and has contracts
with about II other haulers in
its operations in the Beverly
area.
Coal is hauled from the strip
mine to the company tipple and
crushing plant across the street
from the Beverly school, where
the coal is processed. 1t is then
hauled in other trucks to the
Ohio Powers new $40,000,000
generating plant being erected
upstream from Beverly. The
plant is not scheduled to open for
two years but the coal stockpile
is already being accumulated.
Union coal miners were called
out on strike last week when the
Wage Sterilization Board re-
fused to grant an increase of
$1.90 a day as requested by the
UMWA. The board offered an
increase of $1.50 day, 40 cents
less than the amount agreed to
by both industry and the union.
1t is expected a settlement will
be reached the latter part of this
week on the wage issue.

Stringent Quartet Is Pleasing
In Second Festival Proqron1

Ned Rorem's second quartet
combines modernism with pleas
ing use of melody, abundant in
the first violin part. THE Allegro
motto" for muted strings, is really
a violin solo to a dissonant accom-
paniment either pizzicato or full
tone. The "Lento" was songful
and intense.
The founder of the Stringart
Quartet, Arthur Cohn. a violinist
by profession, specialized in play
ing contemporary music of which
he gave a good example in his
Quartet No. 4, Op. "a" on the
program. It's present leader. Mr.
Shulik carries on the established
tradition. In color, imagination
and the knowledge of the purely
instrumental technique Mr. Cohn
surprasses the other composers.
The Negro Quartettino" by
Harl Mcdonald is melodious in the

not free from borrowing Dvorak S
