STRAIGHT FROM
THE HEART OF
NEWCOMB MIDGET

/ am a candidate for office of
County Commissioner from Kenne-
keet Township, and take this
means of thanking the people in
the various communities l have
visited recently to discuss this
campaign.
Unfortunately there are many
people l have not seen, due to
them being away at the time, and
l wish time permitted to see every
one in person.
l trust that you nevertheless,
will go to the polls Saturday, May
26, and support me in my effort
to give Dare County good service
in this place. Your vote and sup
port will never be regretted, and
if you will give this honor, 1
promise you:
| will try to hold down the cost
of running Dare county within
reason. will not take hasty action
on sudden propositions brought be-
fore the board, and in all impor-
tant matters, / will first talk with
the people and learn their wishes
in these things.
If elected, / will be your serv-
ant and working for you, and
will go to you for orders and
advice. Is that not fair enough?
believe we ought to have prog
ress in Dare County, and l know
there are a lot of things that can
be done for the people in all COM
munities. Therefore, / am anxious
to see that justice in all respects
is done for the WELFARE and
PROGRESS of Dare County.
AS you lnosy, l am retired from
the Coast Guard and have plenty
of time to give you. And if elect
ed, l will give you the time. l
will not neglect my duty and turn
everything over to somebody else.
Can a man be more fair? Do
you not think it is time to try
this kind of a proposition. Surely
you have nothing to lose. You will
not make it any, worse by voting
for me, and let us take chance
on something that will help the
people to rule.
With all good wishes, and many
thanks for your fine treatment and
good words as i have gone among
you, I wish to conclude.

Sunday night news roundup has
been one of WMAL'S brightest
programming features and he
should fit into the mcknight
schedule smoothly.
McCaffery is a firm subscriber
to the idea that a TV news
caster should develop an indi-
vidual approach. This he has
achieved by writing his own
show and backing it up with
hard research. A Capitol Hill vet,
Joe is an easy man in an inter-
Iview-letting the subject do the
Italking-and I've found his re-
Taxed, informal manner a re-
freshing change of pace from the
Ipretentious stylists.
Anyway-we wish all three of
them the best-Bryson, Joe and
Earl.
Sports Beat: Another key
change in the local news pic
ture occurred early this week
when Morrie Siegel, popular TV
sportscaster and Station WTOP-
9 agreed to disagree again early
week. 1t looks permanent this
time.
The colorful and outSpoken
reporter left yesterday for a con-
ference in Baltimore with his
sponsors and an announcement
may be forthcoming soon. It was
rumored recently that Siegel
might shift his base of operation
to that city.
Siegel has made no secret on

the three minutes allotted him

world.

Plain City Votes
Amusement Tax
Be Re-Enaeted

At the last council meeting
members of, the Plain City coun-
Gil voted unanimously to put the
amusement tax back into effect
here, as of January 1st, 1856 The
amusement tax had been recinded
in 1854 for period of one year.
This according to the records
was only a trial period and it
automatically became effective
again at the end of the designat-
ed period. However, Council and
Mayor Loomis agreed that they
would put it into effect at the
beginning of the year and forget
about those back months.
The tax will amount to ap-
proximately 3 per cent which will
be added to the admission prices
of all amusements, such as shows,
basketball games, races of all
kinds etc. 1t will be collected
from patrons of the Plain City
Fair next summer This is no new
tax Mayor Loomis explained, but
merely the renewal of one which
has been on the books here for
many years. 1t was pointed out
that since the 11a mill levy for
operating expenses was defeated
at the last general election the
town is without the necessary
funds to carry on in the police
and maintenance department.
Council also passed a resolution
to place 2 mill levy on the
ballot at the May election. 1t is
their belief that people who de-
sire better police protection and
the comforts of town life should
be willing to stand a fair por-
tion of the added expense. They
point out that the town has been
trying to operate on less money
in the past year than they have
ever had in the past. AT a time
like this when wages and the
cost of living has risen tremen-
dously people should cooperate
and be willing to give the town
officials more money for general
operation. Police and maintenance
help deserves more money, the
Mayor believes.

Pato's object is to throw the
duck into a basketlike net at each
end of a polo-sized field about
230 yards and 90 yards wide The
catch is that each player holding
the ball must "offer" it at all
times, holding the patio at arms
length SO that opposing players
can grasp it.

ILO Classifies
$4,000 Jobs

GENEVA - Every known occu-
patton in the world will be classi-
fled by the International Labour
Organization in time for the 1860
population census if its present
classification program is complet-
ed as planned.
For some years now the ILO, as
the organization mainly concerned
with labor problems, has been try
ing to get agreement between
countries on the basic methods of
occupational classification.
Some countries have indexed as
many as $4,000 different job de-
scriptions which fall under various
groups, each designated by code
number.
An important objective of the
classification is to provide COM
mon framework for presenting and
comparing national occupational
data on an international basis.
1t could then be applied to other
types of data, such as employment
movements, analyses of wages and
statistics of occupational accidents
and diseases.

An eye-catching natural gas out

Her outfit is a visible example
to audiences of the vital role nat
ural gas plays in industry-the
subject of Miss Magruder's newest

The sandy-haired Owensboro,

of some members of the fair sex
simply because she is paid to talk.
But the natural gas outfit" caus-
es even more widespread notice.
Her hat, dress, purse, stockings,
shoes, scarf, coat-and even her
luggage e-have been made using
gas either as raw material or in
processing.
Miss Magruder's dress, in fash
ionable black with wide collar, is
made from combination of wool
and orion. The latter is one of the
