Unknown Soldier is meeting with
some opposition.
Procedure Questioned
Opponents feel that 1t is not a
proper procedure. They argue
that the memorial should be left
in its present state as a symbol
of the dead Of all wars. They
point out that a movement is
certain to begin to make the
same arrangement for an UNI
known serviceman Of the Korean
conflict. They contend that plac-
ing bodies under each other
would cause the memorial to lose
its significance.
If unknown servicemen Of all
wars are to be honored at Ar
lington. separate shrines should
be built. the opponents declare.
An inquiry at the Pentagon
brings the reply that Quarter
master Corps is still "co-ordi-
mating" its plans for interring
the World War II serviceman.
These plans were laid down in
detailed form when first an
nounced in 1850 and it was said
then could be put into effect

Seek Return Of
Waste Paper Cans

Merchants Ask Town Help
In Keeping Downtown
Area Cleaner

Bluffton village council will be
asked to replace a number of missing
waste receptacles on Main street side
walks this summer as an aid to keep
ing the business section cleaner. The
request will be made by the Bluffton
Business Mems association.
At recent meeting Secretary Eu-
gene Benroth was instructed to write
council asking that the metal drums be
again placed at various places along
the street. The association will also
ask that the street crew make more
frequent cleanings of Main street.
Several members complained that
they sweep their walks and cutters
regularly, but that the piles of dirt
are not removed by the village and
are scattered by passing autos. They
pointed out that when the Jaycee
trash receptacles were on the street it
was possible to shovel the dirt into
these metal cans for pickup by the
street crew.

The mountains and desert of New
Mexico is a mans country, wonder
full place for a vacation adventure,
but still there's no place like ''home
sweet home.
That is the opinion of 10 members
of the Bluffton Explorer Post who
returned home at midnight Wednes-
day night of last week, brown as
the flapjacks they fried on their g.
day foot-journey through parts of
the 127,OOO-acre Philmont Scout
ranch near Cimarron, New Mexico.
Together with their Post leader,
Jack Urban of Rawson, the Bluffton
Explorers covered more than so
miles over the rugged terrain of the
southwest. Carrying their personal
gear on army-style pack boards, they
took what is known as the Lucien
Maxwell Trail leading over a trail
peak of 10,400 feet.
The boys report seeing wild deer,
antelope, jack rabbits and a herd of
buffalo. 1t rained four times and
they were pelted by hail storm on
the journey.
Hiking between base camps, spaced
a days foot-travel apart, the boys
ate their breakfast and evening
meals in the base camps, carried
sandwiches for their noon luncheons.
Provisions were available at each
base camp from the ranger in
charge, and the boys did their own
cooking.
Travelling without guides, the local
group only once got off the trail and
had to follow the Rayado river to
rejoin the trail.
At one stage of the trip they visit
ed the home of Kit Carson, pioneer
scout of the southwest. The boys
report the door to the home was un-
usually low, Carson having been a
small man, only S feet, inches in
height.

Poultry Dealer
Is Hurt AS Truck
Crashes And Burns
Charles Kinsinger's Con-
ditiOn Reported Good
At NOrwalk Hospital

Charles Kinsinger, Bluffton poultry
dealer, seriously injured early last
Thursday morning when his truck
left the road near Bellevue, Ohio,
was reported recuperating salts
factorily this week.
The Bluffton man suffered brok-
en- left leg, scalp cuts, burns and
abrasions. His left leg, broken in
two places at the thigh, required
surgery and it was necessary to
place both legs in casts.
Mr.. Kinsinger was hauling ap-
proximately 1000 chickens to the
Cleveland market for the holiday
rush when the mishap occurred.
The truck, one of the smaller ones
operated by the poultry dealer, ap-
parently hit q concrete abutment at
the edge OF State Route 118, nine
miles east of Bellevue, and became a
blazing mass Of wreckage spontan-
eously.
Fortunately Mr.. Knsinger was
thrown out of the truck into a deep
ditch. Flaming chicken coops fell
upon him, and only quick action of a
farmer in front of whose house the
accident occurred, saFed his life.
The farmer, Ted Shafer, hearing
the crash and seeing flames, rushed
out with a fire extinguisher. He
saw Mr.. Kinsinger's dilemma at once
and pulled the burning crates of
chickens from him. Ten minutes
later an ambulance was hurrying the
victim to Norwalk Memorial hospital.
How Mr.. Kinsinger was thrown out
of the burning truck is mystery.
The door on the drivers side was
wedged shut against the abutment.
1t was surmised that he was either
thrown through the windshield, which
was completely broken out, or thru
the opposite door.
Employees of Kinsinger Produce
said that the truck was a complete
loss and that only two or three
crates of chickens were saved. The
damage was estimated in excess of
$4,000.
Mrs. Kinsinger said that her
husband was getting along nicely at
the Norwalk hospital, and would be
removed to the local hospital at the
earliest moment possible. 1t is es-
timated that his legs will have to
remain in casts for four months.
She is helping others of the Kin
singer firm to keep the business
operating without interruption.

Air Complaints
Against Last OF
chic Sales Bldgs.

What to do about a few remaining
outdoor toilets inside the corporation
limits is beginning to present a prob
lem for municipal authorities in the
form of complaints from neighbors.
Although the matter has been up
for some time, no immediate answer
has been forthcoming because of the
long-drawn-out controversy over the
county health department which has
resulted in no commissioner being in
charge of operations for quite a few
months.
The first step in determining the
proper control methods is to learn
what regulations of the county health
department govern the outdoor "Chic
Sales" structures, before determining
if additional legislation will be re-
quired from the municipal level.

Explorers Home From NM,
Find No Place Like Home

Because it was necessary to take
their water from the streams along
the route, medicated tablets were
carried to purify the water in their
canteens. There was no sillness nor
accidents on the trip, and all of the
boys had gained weight, they said.
Mr.. Urban, thriving on the cooking
of his young charges, is reported to
have gained eight pounds.
Home from the trip and easily
identified by their western style
sombreros and wide hand-tooled
leather belts are Jerry Kohl, Ralph
Reichenbach, Bret and Bruce Triplett,
Eddie Niswander, Gordon Mathewson,
Richard Basinger, Larry Mumma,
Dave Schumacher and Roger Ed
wards.
The boys earned money to take the
trip through sponsorship of waste
paper drives and various other pro-
jects. They ask that their gratitude
be expressed to Bluffton citizens who
aided them in many ways in ac-
complishing their goal.

Rural Progress
Parade Attracts
Many Participants
With COlOrful Floats, Gay
Music, Town Pays Tribute
To American Farmer

Bluffton's independence Day Rural
Progress Parade" aimed at honoring
the American farmer and his import
ant contribution to the nations "free-
dom from want, attracted one of the
largest fields of entries in the local
parade history.
A total of 108 individuals and
organizations entered floats and dis
plays in the procession, and many
had several entry units. Requiring
40 minutes to pass over the 10-block
Main street parade route, the leading
band was approaching the entrance
of Harmon Field before the horse
men at the tail end had started to
make the loop.
Nearly every float in the parade
followed closely the theme of tribute
to rural progress, and an unusual
feature was the appearance of a
number of farmers leading their fin
est dairy and beef stock over Main
street. The big animals behaved
nicely in the middle of all of the
parade noise and confusion.
Local farm people were. pleased
with the recognition given them in the
holiday parade" said L. A. Basinger
parade chairman, land our commit
tee was appreciative of the wide par
ticipation."
Although dark clouds threatened
storm early in the evening, they
only served to cool off the atmos-
phere for the parade. Typical Fourth
of-July sunshine and 96-degree heat
marked the early part of the day.
Prize-winning parade entries were
announced at the conclusion of the
parade after it passed in review be-
fore the Harmon Field Rodeo stands.
First place trophy among service
club entries was that of the American
Legion Auxiliary. The float illustrat-
ed First Dinner at Threshing Ring"
and showed large group around a
red clothed table in front of an old
fashioned wood range with "mother"

The trophy was awarded by Urich's

sented by Greding Hardware went to
