two cents would go to the farmers.

Possibility of Radio
Station Is Advanced

A plan that could lead to the
establishment of radio station in
Oakland was outlined Monday
night to members of the Board of
Directors of the Mt. Top Chamber
of Commerce.
Presenting the possibility was
Tom Butscher, presently employed
by a Cumberland radio station,
formerly with station WKYR,
Keyser. Butscher is presently en-
gagged in inaugurating a radio
station at Berkeley Springs, w. Va,
and offered the same type pro-
gram to Oakland
The first necessity would be
procuring $4,000 from citizens of
Oakland, which would be used in
building the station, providing the
necessary engineering services and
getting permission to operate the
station from the Federal Commu-
nications Commission. Those con-
tributing toward the $4,000 would
be given preferred stock in the
corporation.
After the radio station was con-
structed, Mr.. Butscher and his as
sociates would enter the picture
and operate the station with funds
obtained from advertisers. Butscher
estimated that station could be
operated successfully for about
$4,000 annually.
The Chamber of Commerce made
no commitment on sponsoring any
such program but agreed to talk
to business men and give Mr..
Butscher their reactions following
| the next regular meeting of the
Chamber in November.
The board of Directors made
final plans, about the Autumn
Glory excursions prior to adjourn
ment.

Dairy Industry
Is Given Boost
Fixes Dairy, Uniontown, To
Place Receiving Station
In Old Imperial Plant

An impressive boost for the dairy
industry of the county was an
nounced this week,
Fixes Dairy of Uniontown, Pa,
is taking over the former Imperial
Ice Cream company plant in Oak
land and will equip it to meet U.
S. Public Health Service regula-
tons for both Maryland and Penn
sylvania and will be receiving $780,
600 pounds of grade A milk daily.
This will mean one and one-half
million dollars to dairymen of the
county, it was pointed out, at the
present market price The amount
paid last month was $3.50 per
hundred.
The firm is known by the title
of R. Bruce Fike and Sons, the
sons being Lewis and Robert Fike.
Lewis Fike was in Oakland Tues
day meeting with J. B. Bowling,
supervisor of sanitarians, Allegany
county; Charley B. Miller, sanitari-
an for Garrett county; DR.. Arthur
Jones, county health officer; and
! Harry c. Edwards, member of the
House of Delegates, GrantSville.
Mr. Bowling said that Edwards
and H. D. Swartzentruber, presi-
dent of the county commissioners,
| had worked many long hours on
details of getting the dairy to es-
tabliSh the milk receiving station
here. Alexander Pals, supervisor
of milk control for the State of
Maryland, also was in the area this
week
The station will be able to ac-
commodate from IS to 125 pro-
ducers. Mr.. Fike said that some
lilo shippers from this county at
present are sending milk to Union
town, and these would be trans
ferred to the Oakland plant.
The dairy plans to spend approx
imately S150OO0 for improvements
to the Imperial plant, located at
Third and Center streets. Storage
tanks, coolers and other equip
ment would be installed and tank
receiving room prepared. Mr.. Fike
said the work would take from 80
to Is days, after which the plant
would begin receiving the milk.
The Imperial plant announced
last July it would discontinue pro-
cessing of milk following a meet
ing with some forty or fifty milk
producers and it was announced
at that time that there would be
opportunity for half of the pro-
ducers to transfer delivery of milk
to Clarksburg.
Some producers did this while
others transferred their activities
to Fixes dairy, Liberty Milk and
Queen City dairy of Cumberland,
and the Carnation plant. The COM
pany at that time had so or more
patrons who had been bringing
in about $4,000 gallons of milk per
month amounting to a monthly pay
roll of some $4,000. Prior to
August, 1855, the company had
about 300 patrons.

They went to the dogs usual sleeping place

impression, saved the dogs life.

angle turns in it. At the end there were two
metal cups containing cat food. One by one,
the kittens were released into the passageWay
while the experimenter, sitting behind screen,
concentrated on mentally urging the animal to
choose one of the two cups. In all, $500 trials
were conducted. Most exciting was the out

Judy, who selected the fright" cup as much as
50 per cent above chance expectations.

World Famed Metropolitan Opera Soprano
znka M|anov Will Sing In Detroit Friday, February 1st

DETROIT - Our own fa-
nous opera star from the
Metropolitan Opera Guil | d,
Zinka Milanov, will pay a visit
to Detroit on Friday, Febru-
ary 1st. Her concert will be
at the Masonic Temple and
start at 800 PM.
As far as Zinka Is con-
cerned, she is not a stran-
ger to Detroiters, particu-
larly not to our own people.
Many of you are well in
formed about Zinka and
her career; many of you
have seen her. heard her
singing and. perhaps, shook
her hand.
In recent years she had
quite a build-up in our "Z',
as we'll as in other papers. All
this publicity concerned itself
mostly with her great success
as an operate singer and ac-
tress. l, for one, was very
pleased reading it.
Very little has been said
about her struggle and hard
ships in the operate world,
about the steps she was
climbing till she reached her
goal. l would like to tell you
a few words on that subject.

doctors report as to the 9TH
er condition, stating that nei-
ther her voice nor her health
in any way was jeopardized in
the process.
When Mr.. Johnson received
Zinka's report, he mailed her
a three-year contract.
Came To USA In 1887
She arrived at New York
early in December Of 1887,
After a few rehearsals, with
the assistant conductor at the
Metropolitan, she convinced
the maestros not only that
she could sing, but that she
could act in operas as well.
Znka was given a role OF
LeOnOre in Verdi's opera
I'll Trovatore", in Italian,
of course.
She had made a deep i'm
preston not only upon the
minds of the public, but, more
important, upon the minds Of
the directors of the Opera
Company. T h cir comment
was: I'VE believe that Mrs.
Milanov will find her place
in opera.
