Release
Proposal
New Regulations
Adopt More Liberal
Subdivision Terms

A revision of proposed regula-
tions for control of development of
the Upper County were released to-
County Planning Commission after
six months study of landslide OBJ
jections which were raised when
the original revisions were unveiled
late last fall.
In releasing thu Commissions
proposal, Patrick Cusick, planning
engineer for the Commission, em-
Phasized that the revision is being
released to the public at this time
in order that additional criticisms
and proposals may be made before
a final draft is submitted to the
County Council.
Committees Okay
Mr.. Cusick said the revision has
attempted to deal with the objec-
tions which rose last fall, princi-
pally in connection with the Com-
missions proposals relating to sub
divisions of land. He said the Com
mission has had the advice and
counsel of some 10 citizen advisory
committees set up throughout the
Upper County some months ago.
Seven Of the ten committees, he
added, were in accord with the new
proposals. The other three, he said,
did not want to commit t n cir
groups to endorsement without
further study.
Some 500 copies of the regula-
tions are now available for public
use and copies have been sent to
citizen and other key groups
throughout the area affected. He
said the copies are available to all
comers. Additional copies win be
made available if demand increas-
es, he added.
In the new regulations, the Com
mission has made sweeping chang
es in controversial subdivision reg
ulations, particularly in connection
with a definition of subdivision.

Buck Lodge Boy
Receives HerO's
Award This Week

A youthful Buck Lodge hero who
saved the lives OF his mother and
three younger brothers in a fire
early this month was honored with
the Junior Citizens Award" by
the District Junior Chamber OF
Commerce, n d was a guest on
Wednesdays "Strike it Rich" tele-
vision show in New York.
Joe Leppo, 8, was probably more
frightened by bright lights on the
televlsion stage than he was on
May 4 when flames destroyed his
family's home on farm rear
Buck Lodge.
For if there was fear in his heart
that night, it was not reflected in
his actions.
Joe woke up from a sound sleep
and smelled smoke in his room. He
went to the top of the stairs and
saw the entire first floor of the
house enveloped in flames.
The youth first awakened his
mother, then climed out on a porch
roof and Jumped to the ground.
Running to the barn, he grabbed a
heavy ladder, carried it to the
blazing house, and propped it be-
meath a bedroom window.
While flames cracked around his
feet, little Joe climbed the ladder
and shepherded his mother and lit
tie brothers to safety. The fire
burned the house to the ground and
destroyed all the family posses
sions.
Joe won some money on the tele-
vision program, which will help buy
new h m furnishings; but his
family agrees there is not enough
money in the world to measure the
amount of courage in his youthful
heart.

down, pour l tablespoon rubbing
alcohol on it and light, then hold
the chicken over the heat. VIII not
leave the chicken black.--Mrs. M. r.,
Fergus county.
To use ones old rusty jar rings

to r. o. 7. c. standards and army
requirements. The girls were as
expert in their precision drilling as
the boys.
The Junior High School boys and
girls Drill came next with the
youngsters in blue jeans, white
blouses and be-bop caps.
Three floats thrilled the crowd
with their beauty and design.
The first float was a Poem in
red, white and blue with an arch
seven feet long with the following
words in two foot letters for all
to see-"FollOw The Torch To Lib
erty and Freedom For All Mem"
On the body of the float was a
beautiful, tall, dignified senior,
Miss Ella Ruth Meeks of Lexing-
ton, Mississippi, representing the
statue of Liberty with her lifted
torch. The costume was designed
by Mrs. Louise |. Saul of New Or
leans, famous Negro designer for
Mardi Gras. Behind the float of
Liberty came thirteen boys and
girls dressed in the costumes of
thirteen countries and carrying the
banner with the name of each
country. This float was the high
light due to its significance. Many
white citizens took moving and still
pictures of this float.
The second float was the "Sun
Goddess" the High School Queen
and King of May for 1862. The en-
tire float was a sun burst of gold.
The Sun Goddess wore a white and
gold grecian garment with gold
train, her crown was a sunburst of

The 18th Annual May Day of
Saints Industrial School of Lexing-
ton, Mississippi, was one of the
most spectacular events of this
decade on any school campus.
Then thousand people thronged
the streets of Lexington among
both races and stood from HOO
A. NJ. until 200 P. NJ. waiting for
the parade.
All traffic was prohibited from
passing through the streets of this
little southern delta county seat
for four hours. All races forgot the
traditions and mingled together to
view the spectacle.
Every store was emptied and
closed, although it was Saturday.
All white shoes, evening dresses,
navy blue skirts and white blouses,
Stacks and tennis shoes had been
sold out days before to the student
group of Saints Industrial School.
Farming parents made great per-
sonal sacrifice to see their children
at their best on this eventful day.
Brown boys and girls We're in
multitude of lovely costumes and
uniforms.
The parade was mile long, lead
by the Christian and American
Flags in holsters worn by two tall
High School boys in white flannel
pants and navy blue coats. The

their nifty white and blue uniforms
followed the flags with eight little

The crowd had never seen a Band
this large and all were delighted
with its excellent music.
Two hundred students in the
