MITCHELL. JAMES N. In loving mem
DRY of our darling husband and dad,
JAMES N. MITCHELL, who left us
SO suddenly six years ago today,
November IA, 1851.
There never was a nighttime passed
Or morning kissed with dew,
That we do not drift in memory
Aglow with thoughts of you.
For each thing we do reminds us
OF the love We used to share:
All the truly happy hours filled
With bliss beyond compare.
Seems as though you are still beside
We can almost hear YOU sigh,
And in solemn conversation, Dad,
We await your warm reply.
Perhaps We are foolish to linger, Dad,
On the things beyond recall.
But somehow the past holds treasures.
Dreams that matter most Of all.
In the passing of our loved one,
Yes, We feel and understand
That we. are not alone one moment,
Special thoughts are close at hand.
Daddy, many memories we all shared
together
Brings us peace as days go by,
And helps us TO remember
That our love for you can never die.
So the years roll on as the days
The years now are six in number:
Rest IN peace. my husband and our
Dad,
In your heavenly slumber.

Airn1an Refuses Order to Get 1SideWaH' Haircut

TOKYO, P-A young Colorad- an airman said Saturday his re- fusal to get a white sidewalk has resulted in court-martial charges against him.
 In this incident "white side Wall'' refers to a haircut, one that strips the sideburns bare from the ears to the crown of the head.
 Airman 3IC Don Wheeler of Cortez, Colo, said charges of dis obeying orders were filed against him after his squad leader told him to get his hair cut in that fashion. He declined.
 T am not refusing an order" '" Wheeler said, simply challeng- ing an order to get white side wall haircut because I had had an Air Force regulation haircut only the day before"
 Murray Sprunk, a New York lawyer practicing in Tokyo, said he had agreed to defend Wheeler in the summary court-martial
 Wheeler, 20, is member of the honor guard platoon at Persh- ing Heights. A spokesman for the Air Force said that, as such, he should have a sharp haircut
 "Mennbers of the honor guard should look alike" he said.
 Wheeler is not being tried for failure to get a haircut. He is charged with disobedience Of lawful order of his superior of ficer.''

 The announcement foreshadows no new land withdrawal "Hy- droponics" is a 16-cylinder word that refers to the growing of plants in chemically treated wa ter. Japanese farmers, pinched for space in their postage stamp islands, have practiced the art for years.
 Sparrevohn's comestibles will be grown in two planting tanks, each 40 feet long, three feet wide and a foot deep. Installed in steam-heated greenhouses, tn e tanks are expected to yield suf- ficient fresh produce to satisfy

 The heat wave extended to other countries of Europe. Paris had it's hottest night ever record ed. It was 95 at d-afternoon
 The heat wave gave Paris po- licemen unprecedented privilege the right to take their coats off on duty.

 It was a 5-foot-long water moe casin.
 Then I grabbed the emer- gency brake and brought the car to screaming stop, the youth told officers "All at the same time, it seemed, I swung open the car door and headed for the pavement"
 Someone called the police but by the time they arrived Mize and passerby had beaten the snake lifeless with a stick.
 Mize admitted to police that he picked up the snake while on a July 4th picnic and slowed it away in box in the trunk of his car. Somehow the snake got out.
