CAMP PERRY
SUGGESTED AS
MISSILE BASE

That Camp Perry may become
temporary Nike guided missile
base, occupied by early summer
by troops earmarked for Cleveland
bases, was indicated this week.
Col. Henry P. Van Ormer, COM
mander of the 67th Anti-Aircraft
Artillery Group of Ravenna Ar
senal, proposed the temporary
Nike bases for Camp Perry, Ra-
benna Arsenal, and Lordstown
Ordnance Depot near Warren,
pending completion of permanent
bases in the Cleveland area later
this year.
General Julius Stark, superin-
tendent at Camp Perry, is out OF
town and unavailable for COM
ment. Major Russell E. Hewett,
who is acting superintendent, told
The News Wednesday that he had
no information on the proposal.
At EOD, commanding officer
Col. John M. Phillips said repre-
sentatives of the Ravenna group
had visited this area recently to
look over available sites. Estab-
lishment of temporary base here
would entail no building program,
it was understood, troops being
housed in existing facilities.
Work on the Nike base at Gar
field Heights started several weeks
ago and work was started Monday
on greater Cleveland's second base
at Grille Administration Hospital.
It is scheduled for October COM
nIetiOn.

of $50 cases.
Total of $4O,326.93 goes to the
City of Port Clinton for combined
criminal and civil receipts of 1855.
The city paid $12,552.14 toward
expenses of Court operations, leav-
ing the $27,774.79 net profit for
the municipality. Last year the
City profit was $33, ,496.12. Court
expenses in "a were $14,271.56,
the City paying $10,767 56.
Again this year," said Judge
Wargowsky's report, "this Court
had more receipts than its eXpendi-
lures and therefore is happy not
to be a burden on the taxpayers.
However, as stated in last years
report, this Court is primarily
concerned with providing a fair
trial to those appearing in it. If
the latter was achieved, this Court
had another successful year"
Gross receipts from criminal
cases were $7O,694.79 Qast years
figure was $87, 7,795.47). Distribu-

state of Ohio, SIS, ,080.9O; all others,
State of Ohio, $4,00493.
For Civil Cases, 4,18405 was
distributed to the City of Port

no distribution for 1854, approx
mately $1,000 of this sum should
be credited for the year 1854.
The Courts expenses for the
year were $16,673.54 with Port
Clinton paying $12,552.14 and Ot-
tawa county $4,1214 40. Its person

Love Comics
Are Replacing
Crime Stories

MONTREAL - (NC) - Inspec
tor Ogila Pelletier, head of the
Montreal Juvenile ! Delinquency
Prevention Bureau, has warned
parents to be on guard against so
called 'love COMICS"
He said there has been a mark
ed decrease in crime comics,
due to constant vigilance and ac
tion by police and educational ac
tivity by parents and teachers.
He appealed especially to par
ents to give the same cooperation
in watching over ''love comics.
Prosecution against these social
ed comics is more difficult, he
said, because they are made to
appear highly moral by the fact
that in the situations depicted the
boys and girls either escape un
sullied or become repentant.
He quoted findings of the Gin
cinnati Committee on Evaluation
of Comic Books, which said that
"love comics" seemed to be dis
placing crime comics" The com
mittee described the "love com

The idea of eo-existence has
