New Plant Manager
For Cannon Plant

Elmer E. Harrington, 35, of
Bridgeville has been named man
ager of the new food processing
plant established in Dunn, North
Carolina, by H. P. Cannon and Son
Inc, of Bridgeville.
The appointment was made to-
day by Henry P. Cannon, II, presi-
dent of the Delaware canning con-
cern who announced some months
ago that his company was acSuir-
ing additional processing facilities
in order to assure a greater geo
graphical distribution of sources of
supply. The land and the buildings
for the branch plant were made
available by the town of Dunn,
while the Cannon company in
stalled the necessary processing
equipment. The plant will be ready
for operation within a few weeks
and will employ about $50 people.
In his position as manager of
the Dunn plant, Harrington will
work under the general supervision
OF Richard w. Harris, head of pro-
ductiOn for all the Cannon oper-
ations, the firms president said.
The new facility is the first plant
that the Cannon company has
established outside Of Bridgeville
since the company was founded in
1881.
Harrington has worked in the
Cannon company production de-
partment since 1945. During that
time he has been responsible for
many phases of the operation in
cluding the supervision of raw ma
terials received from Delaware
farmers, new plant construction,
engineering and the corn and pep
per production.
While the Dunn plant will be
used this season for the canning
of diced red peppers, it is pointed
out that>it has considerable future
expansion possibilities for many
other items which are prOcCssed by
the Cannon company such as as
paragus, green beans, lima beans
corn, onions, pumpkin, squash, sue
cOtash and sweet peppers
A graduate of Harrington High
School, Harrington also attended
the Agriculture School at the
University of Delaware before he
Joined the Air Corps in 1941. He
was released in 1945 with the rank
Of lieutenant.

Fill A Car For Korea
Campaign Launched

Another phase of the current
campaign in behalf of the people
of Korea was announced today by
Brig. Gen. Norman M. Lack, chair
man of the Delaware American
Korean Foundation Committee.
General Lack said today that in
dustry has been invited to make
donations of obsolete machinery,
lathes, machine tools and other
items of that nature which could
be put to practical use in the war
torn country.
Fill u Car for Korea, the latest
phase of the campaign, means that
the nations railroads are cOOpera-
ting by spotting freight cars in
communities all over the United
States for the loading of donated
commodities" General Lack said.
i believe that in this area where
industry is so centralized there
surely mus be some equipment
which is no longer useful to our
people, but which would be boon
in rebuilding this stalwart little
nation.
Il want to point out that the val
ne of the machinery is deductible
for income tax purposes by those
making such donations. ANY dOna-
ted materials should be boxed for
overseas shipment at the point of
Origin-that means here. Then the
freight car will come as nearly IN
your location as possible to pick
up the boxes. The freight cars then
head for the west coast, where
ships will be loaded and material
will go directly to Korea.
Having been in Korea and
knowing just what these people did
in staVing off the spread of com
munism in that land, / can appre-
ciate their needs now" General
Lack declared. Others have been
there as well since the fighting
ceased and can testify that these
people are worth helping and that
they need that help desperately
with another winter coming on +"
Any manufacturer who has such
equipment which he would like to
donate should contact General
Lack, it is pointed out, and arrange
ments will be made to have the
freight cars pick them up.

Kent Theatre Guild
Presenting Laura

With a cast that includes Mrs.
Curtis Wessner, Edmund Jasko-
WAX, Harve Williams and o. Dale
Taeff, Laura, the stage version
of Vera Caspary's best-selling nov
ell. is playing this Friday and Sat
urday at the Caesar Rodney High
School as the third presentation
of the Kent County Theatre Guild.
This is the dramatizatiOn by Miss
Caspary herself, aided and abetted
by George Sklar, author of numer-
GUS plays and recent novels, on
which the hit movie was based
which starred Clifton Webb, Gene
Tierney and Dana Andrews.
This stage version of the story
that's so engrOssing that it has
also been told in a magazine serial
and a novel and a movie, is said
to be more effective than the screen
version because certain important
situations and the characteristics
of Waldo Lydecker, the story's
fOppish, aesthete. were drastically
altered in the film to please the
censOTs.
Laura" has had two separate
professional stage productions since
the movie was released-an un-
usual sequence, since ordinarily a
screen versions release automatic
ally shut off stage presentations on
Broadway of the same story. The
play, however, seemed to exercise
the same fascination upon live
theatrical producers as its princi-
pal character does in the play upon
the men who know her.
In the first. page state produc-
tiOn, Miriam Hopkins played the
title role of the beautiful and clev-
er New York career girl around
whom the action centers-lhe girl
whose life seems so completely
satisfying that the slogan accom-
panying this play everywhere has
been the initials L. L. L., standing
for Live Like Laura. X. r. Stew
ems had this role in the second pro-
ductiOn, which New York saw. Otto
Kruger portrayed the epigrammatic
bon vivant Waldo in both stage
versions. Oddly enough, both these
professional productions played the
same theatre in Chicago, exactly
one year apart.
Laura" is no run-Of-the-mine
mystery, because it uses the un-
usual device of bringing the pre-
sumed victim of homicide back to
life and popping her into the role
of chief suspect. 1t is the tale of
how someone came to the door of
Laura Hunts penthouse apartment
one night, thrust a gun in the half
opened door and pulled the trigger.
The woman who had opened the
door fell to the floor with a shat
tered face. Even after the funeral
everyone thought Laura was the
victim
Then Laura walks in, a few days
later, soaring the handsome young
detective who's trying to solve the
crime, as well as her fiance and
her platOnically-attached dilettante
friends. right out of their cOllec-
tive trousers, until she informs
them that the dead girl was a
friend to whom she had loaned her
apartment for the weekend. That
much of the mystery plot can fair
ly be told in advance though of
course the movie has made almost

Scientist Finds Mars Alive
With Primitive Vegetation
Dr.. sIipher Shows
20, 900 New Photos
In Study Of Planet

An intensive 6-months' study
of the red planet has disclosed
nothing new to rule out the re-
mote possibility. but, instead. has
turned up stronger proof that
Mars is "alive" with some kind
OF primitive vegetation, accord
ing to the National Geographic
Society.
Noted astrophysicist DR.. E. C..
Slipher has just returned from a
six-month astronomical expedi-
tion to Bloemfontein, South AZ
rica. with 10000 new photo
graphs of earth's near neighbor.
The trip was co-sponsored by
the National Geographic and the
Lowell Observatory at Flagstaff,
Ariz.. which DR.. Slipher heads.
Blue Green Markings Seen.
Mars is alive. It has to be, J"
said the astronomer. The pho
tographs show more clearly than
ever before that Mars is not en-
tirely red, but bears great
blue-green markings.
"If things did not grow there,
changing with the seasons" DR..
Slipher said, "dust from the red
deserts of Mars would have
settled long ago over its entire
face"
Instead, photographs made
with the 27-inch telescope Of
the Bloemfonteine observatory
show polar caps cleaning white,
frost areas that come and 60
and dust storms swirling across
the surface. Exposures made
with colored filters helped pene-
trate the Martian atmosphere.
DR.. Slipher says "this last year
ever, that II the mysterious
markings on Mars are caused by
vegetation, 1t almost certainly
is Of an extremely simple nature.
Nothing but primitive forms like
moss or the green lichens we see
on otherwise barren rocks could
survive the scarcity of oxygen
and water on Mars and the ex-
tremely cold nights.
That any higher life, espe-
cially human life, could exist Is
even less likely. Noon tempera-
lures on Mars equator are fairly
reasonable. but the nights go
down to the temperature of dry
ice.

Vlshinsky himself gave hint
OF the tack he might take when he
demanded last week that the U.N.
Security Council, in which Russia
has veto power, have authority
over any interna t ional atomic
agency. The United States has
shown no willingness to place the
proposed agency under such con-
troll.

demands for such advantages to

There also was speculation Wish

for an all-European security sys.

Vishinsky also was expected to
register a sharp protest against
what the Soviets call interference
with shipping in the Formosan
Straits.
