Rosenbloom, now a first-rate

I'll Never Give 1t Up

It's been twenty years since he
left me
But I'll never forget that day
The day that he walked out on me
And there was nothing could
do or say
AS / watched him walk down that
lonesome road
Out into the blazing sun.
l laughed to myself and thought
nothing of it.
Because 1 thought that 1 had
won
But as the years went by,
/ discovered that / was wrong
Why, / hadn't won from the be-
ginning
was losing all along
We had foolish quarrel
And / told him to go
It's funny I never realized
How much I loved him so
thought that I'd forget him
But in my heart there's still
burning
And I've waited twenty years
For some hope of his returning
It's been like waiting twenty years
For Volcanic to erupt
But until that day he returns to
I'll never give it up.

Public Works
Bill Approved

WASHINGTON, R-The House

military public works estimated
to cost $2,368, 698, 900.
The amount is $14,345, 700 more

ate funds for construction of the

quired to do that. The money, if
appropriated, will be available
for use in the year beginning on

total Of $543,3 600, was author
lied to spend $751; 900. This
included a last-minute addition of
about So million for construction
of a 500-bed Army hospital at
Fl. Jackson, sc.
The Navy's original request of
1881, 1877, 300 was boosted to $685.

the hike was another late action
