The peanut onslaught is the sig
nal for the annual observance of
National Kids Day by East Cleve-
land Kiwanis.
Bob Kerr, chairman of the 1858
National Kids Day observance en-
phasizes the fact that 100 per cent
of the money received from the
peanut sale spent right here in
East Cleveland. 1t is the main
source of income for the clubs
active Youth Program through
which it aids and backs various
activities among YOUTH and also
assist in individual cases where a
helping hand is needed.
Every Kiwanian gets back of
this biggest ways and means prof.
ect for another Kiwanis communi-
ty services. Karl Brown is assign
ing members to committees.

AS reminder, Mr.. Kerr points
out that this definitely is not a
matter of buying a bag of peanuts.
The peanuts are merely "Thank
you" from the club for the best
contribution one can make to so
worthy community service. Buy
peanuts, but pay well for them,
says Kerr.

Home Towner
Wins Picnic
Grand Prize

Recipient of the brand new 1858
Mercury Automobile, the Grand
Award of the East Cleveland Com
munity Picnic Committee at it's
annual outing at Euclid Beach
Park Wednesday evening, Septem-
Der End, is Mrs. Margaret Hart,
1908 Strathmore ave.
Her corresponding stub - both
with name and address - was
drawn by 10-year-old Patricia Or
wig of 14716 Dover ave.
The Grand Award winner is
the wife of Herbert Hart, an
Oliver Corp. employee and chair
man of the Boy Scout Committee
of Christ the King parish. They
do not own a car.
Upon reaching home and sur
prising her husband with the good
news, Mrs. Hart quickly put in
a long distance call to daughter,
Peggy, now Mrs. D. NJ. Massey of
White Plains, N. Y. She must
share the family surprise with
brothers Robert, employed at VIM.
Taylor Son & Co., and Melvin, a
Cathedral Latin pupil who is often
heard over the Sunday Fairytale
Hour.
Patricia made three attempts to
help the picnic committee dispose
of the car. On the first try, the
person whose name appeared on
the stub was on his honeymoon.
On the second try, the stub was
unsigned.
Regulations require the presence
of the person whose stub is drawn,
and his signature on the ticket.
Mrs. Hart's ticket met both of
these requirements.

Is Dennis the Menace?
Singer Day Takes Over Monday TV Spot
To Compete With I Love Lucy
By SheiIoh Grohom

1899 an agent got me a show
at Columbia BroadcaSting for
5000 a week. 1t was a fortune
to me in those days. Then
another agent came along and
said he could get me another
job, so I paid him 10 per cent,
too. And then another agency
got into the act and I was pay
80 per cent of the 5000, and
what / had left had to go for
vocal arrangers, accompanist,
etc. So I quickly got myself
lawyer and got it Strengthened
out. and now I only pay away
10 per cent"
Eugene Dennis McNulty first
began singing at Sunday
School and in the choir of st.
Patrick's Cathedral. He
planned to be a lawyer, but
before entering Fordham Law
School he had an operation.
While recuperating, Dennis
recorded a few songs. An ex-
ecutive of a Canadian cor
poration heard him sing
"Jeannie With the Light
Brown Hair" and gave him
$75 to record the number. He
had a hard time convincing
his family that he came by the
money honestly.
A White-Hot Furnace
At this time Jack Benny was
looking for a replacement for
Kenny Baker on his radio
show. Mary Livingstone, Jacks
wife, said she had heard a
good voice on a talent show.
And Dennis was asked to send
a recording. He sent jean
nie," and was hired-he was,
% years old and on the top
rated radio show.
Came the war and Dennis
joined the Navy as a lieu
tenant j. G. Two days after he
left the Navy, Dennis was back
on the Benny show, and for
as long as radio and Benny
last, he'll probably be a regu-
lar. He was starred in a few
pictures - the last was with
June Haver and Dan Daley in
The Girl Next Door" He
played the London Palladium
a year and a half ago, and
says he found no anti-Ameri-
canism in England - But
there was plenty in France
and Italy"
Future plans include going
to New York to do his TV
show-live-for once, in color.
And vacation next summer.
TV is making old men and
women of us. It's like a white
hot furnace that burns every
thing within sight" But what
would our kids do without it?"

HOLLYWOOD.

HOLLYWOOD.
When Jack Benny heard
Dennis Day would be opposite
Lucille Ball on television this
season, he moaned, II wouldn't
be in your shoes for all the
money in the world" But
when Groucho Marx heard the
news, he suddenly became
thoughtful. Groucho is num-
Der two on most television rat
ings, II Love Lucy" number
one. If Dennis can take some
points away from Lucy, Grou-
cho could step into the num-
ber one position. So I had
lunch with Dennis at the Bev-
erly Brown Derby, and who
should be eating right across
the way from us, but Groucho'
himself.
And before plunging into
Dennis TV problems I queried
Groucho about his prospects.
"How can you believe the rat
1ngS?" he asked me. "On one
I'm two, on another 19 and on
another, four half. And
who wants the number one
spot, anyhow-the only place
you can go from there is
down"
Last season." Dennis COM
mented, Il had a 25 rating. This
year I'm filming all my 80 shows
and starting from scratch.
I filmed eight shows in the
summer. Last year 1 was live.
You get more perfection film
ing, and the strains off, but
it's much harder physically. I
now have to work seven days a

Old Lodies and Kids
This includes the tapped show
for Jack Benny on radio. I'VE
were all so ungrateful on ra-
dio, didn't know what a good
thing we had" said Dennis.
And regarding TV ,holdouts
like Bing Crosby and Edgar
Bergen: They'll have to come
into it. It's the present and
the future. 1 only listen to
radio now when I'm driving in
the car"
An old lady stops at our
table and says, "Mr. Day, may
I say hello. I'm a grand
mother of % grandchildren
and I enjoy your show SO
much" "Old ladies and kids
that's mostly my audience
from Dennis after the fan had
walked on. Quite a few in
betweens too. And there'll be
more with the huge giveaway
of $4,000 a week on his TV
show. You send in your name,
address and telephone number
on a postcard. and every week
some one will be called to iden-
tify a song sung by Dennis on
the show. Which of course
means that you have to watch
it. or know some one who has.
Have Four Children
AS for the kid audience,
Dennis and his relatives can
supply a small army. He has
five brothers and a sister. And
his mother and father who will
soon celebrate their 45th we'd

South Koreans Demonstrate
 Against Truce

SEOUL, R- As staff officers worked Tuesday on final details of Korean armistic, hundreds of thousands of South Koreans dem onstrated violently against the inn pending truce that will leave their nation divided.
 In Seoul crowds estimated by some authorities as large as 500,- 900 stormed through the streets of the war-devestated South Korean capital.
 While the demonstrations ragged, defiant South Korean President Syngman Rhee assembled with his generals behind closed doors.
 The meeting followed one with Gen. Maxwell Taylor, US. Eighth Army commander and the South Korean cabinet.
 A spokesman said the cabinet and national assemblymen who attended the session reaffirmed their decision to ignore an armis- tice based on the May 18th LIN. proposal, continue the war, and fight Indian troops if they land in Korea.
 In a direct warning to India, the National Assembly resolved that South Korea twill execute it's free rights" if any foreign troops touch Korean soil to guard war prison CTS after an armistice.
 Under the prisoner exchange agreement signed Monday, India alone would supply troops to han dle the prisoners.

Wilson Explains Air Force Cuts To Senators, Says More Money
 Could Not Be Spent Prudently

V]AAoA1A4N1 O4N, ur- 0CS1 CGoA of Defense Wilson told Senators Tuesday the new Pentagon com mand intends to continue the buildup of the US. air power but is against asking for new funds that can't be spent prudently and properly.
 He said that the expectation of 12O wings for the Air Force by the end of 1855 doesn't mean the new administration has "set aside the Having basis"
 The Truman administrations Air Force goal was 143 wings, ranging in size from 30 bombers to 75 fighters each.
 Wilson was before a Senate ap- propriations subcommittee for the second day defending his $5 bill lion slash in the Air Force budget drawn up by the Truman admin istration for the fiscal year begin ming July l.
 Insisting his figures were in line with prospective actual produc- ton accomplishments, Wilson told the Senators:
 "You can't get planes in half the time by appropriating twice the money"
 The white-haired former presi- dent of General Motors insisted that adequate air power and na- tional defense had been put ahead of desires to slash funds and bal ance the budget.
 "I'm sure you can vote for this budget with clear conscience ? Wilson told Sen. Mcclellan dur ing one long exchange. | Mcclellan has urged Wilson to forget about balancing the bud get" and tell Congress just how many billions were needed tc build toward a 143 wing Air Force.
 Sen. Ferguson R-Mich), chair man of the appropriations sub- committee, told reporters cease fire in Korea would likely take some of the force out of their ar guments. But he cautioned that the nation must not be lulled into

NEW YORK (JTA) - Anglo
American insistence on the inter
naturalization of Jerusalem is
urged in an editorial in Life
magazine. The article claims that
by the Observation-Disclosures of Je-
rusalem Israel and the Arab
world would benefit from mutual
trade through the international
zone. Except for Israel and
Jordan, whose chief sacrifice
would be national pride, the
whole Near East would cheer" !"
the article says.
ITO internationalize Jerusalem
would not settle all the intricate
problems of the explosive Middle
East" the article continues. "In
particular the fostering problem
of the Arab refugees demands
further action. But a u. S. move
to internationalize would be a
moral act that can be done now
A crime against the city and an
affront to the U.N. would be set
right. The U. S. would have at
least laid the basis for a new and
most successful Middle Eastern
policy. Its dangers are less than
those we face now"
