just isn't enough to operate an ad-
equate library"
In Ohio, the big problem for
libraries in 1852 was not censor
ship or burning books but finding
and keeping a staff and getting
money to pay them. The extreme
shortage of professional libraries
and the increased cost of salaries
and books were the two problems
bothering library trustees and IL
brarians during the past year. A
few libraries were forced to re-
duce the number of hours open or
had to cUrtail service to schools

Some 70 libraries were maintain

total records of 61,500 and a total
circulation of 100000. Twenty
seven large Libraries owning educa-

total of 4,794 films shown to an
estimated 6,331 900 people. In ad-

LEGION JUNIORS OVERWHELM
PAULD|NC AS TOURNEY OPENS
BY Leroy Bergeman

With Bob Wood hurting his Sec
ond consecutive two-hitter, Port
Clinton's Legion Juniors baseball
team overwhelmed Paulding, 10 to
2, in the opening round of the
First District American Legion
tournament at DeShler Tuesday
afternoon.
Having a top-heavy lead, Wood
became a little lenient and per-
mitted two runs to cross the plate.
One run scored in the third inning
when Wood filled the bases and
walked a run across. In the fourth,
a Paulding player reached third
and scored on a wild pitch.
Scoring 19 runs on II hits, Port
Clinton made the Paulding players
look like bunch of Little
Leaguers. Having scored So runs
in their last four games, the Port
Clinton sluggers have averaged
nearly IS runs per game.
Hitting stars for Port Clinton in
the district tournament were Tom
Martin with a home run, Clyde
Enderle with a triple and a double
and Bob Zibert with a double and
two singles. Paulding used three
pitchers in an effort to salvage the
game.

 Roden suggests that the principle of the Highway en- tglneer spending the entire in come from gas taxes and li- cense plates on roads, air fields, water and h lrbor facili- ties IS unsound. He believes the funds should be included in the regular territorial budget.
 The salaries of persons en- ployed during the legislative session in 1851 was $35, 121.51. Per Diem for members of the legislature was set at $37, 3sO for the 60-day period in 1851. The cost of printing and binding the various resolutions etc was $39, O00, Roden said. The report by Roden covers every phase of territorial government. In one place in his report he states Tt has long been admitted that the handling of the Territory's s financial and administrative affairs have become antidua- ted. far reaching changes have taken place in the past two decades but the small gro cery store practice of book keeping and administration inaugurated in 1913 remains to this day.
 Roden believes that great savings can be accomplished by the complete reorganiza- tion of the various territorial offices and government.
 He suggests that it may be possible to reduce the cost of legislative sessions. Further savings may result by putting all territorial operations on an up-to-date business like foun- datlon so as to increase ef- ficiency and reduce cost, Roden said.
