An awareness Of the subleties
of this art sharpens apprecia-
ton Of it, to be sure. but Paul
SZilard has made a charming
show of Balinese dance for
those to whom its material is
essentially alien. He has also
had the grace and taste to pro-
vide a narrator as attractive
and articulate as Miss Beryl
lBerney. Miss Beruey, in her
turn, makes it clear that dances
relating to birds, butterflies,
monkeys, and humans with
their universal virtues and
frailties are akin the world
around and timelessly.

Tabanan. 1t has brought with
it its own gamelan, or native
orchestra, from the royal palace
Of that enchanted place. Seven
princesses of the royal line are
among the dancers, all sub
teens according to custom, and
all obviously as talented as they
are lovely.
Balinese dance is music come
alive and in variety that is COM
pletely captivating.
1t is at its best, because

considered by the General AS
sembly during the past few
weeks, the question often arises
"Why change Ohio's election
laws?"
These changes are, of course,
entirely within the province of
the legislature, but the Secretary
of States office, having success
fully guided a rather lengthy
Omnibus Election Bill" through
a General Assembly in an earlier
session which brought badly
needed changes, has been prone
to recommend only those changes
which seem absolutely necessary.

Fair Boards Will
Benefit With More
State Financial Aid

A neW law was passed last
week in the Ohio house of rep
resentatives and senate that will
aid county fair boards, including
the Noble county fair board with
help from the county and state
governments.
The new law, as applied to
Caldwell and Noble county,
would add $4,000 to the fair
receipts from the start. The law
would allocate IL per cent of
the pari-mutuals in the state to
county and state use.
1t would pay each fair $4,000
annually and if they sponsor
races a second $4,000 would be
added. If they sponsor colt races
a third $4,000 is added.
The Noble county fair has been
staging six races in two days
with purses of $400 each day.
]. Kyle Walkenshaw, secretary
of the Noble county board, said
the new law will mean the con-
tinuation of county fairs in Ohio
and is the greatest aid ever sug-
gested for fairs.
The new law will take effect
in 1858, according to the secre-
tary.

Proc" will observe his seventy
third birthday on Aug. %. One
of his first ventures in finance
had to do with finding the
wherewithal for his college
education. He solved this by
earning most of the money him
self, giving only enough attention
to his studies to win top scholas-
tic honors and masters degree
in electrical engineering at Ohio
State in 1907.
Mr.. Cooper in his junior year
had thought that maybe he didn't
want to go into industry, after
having had sour taste of it in
a summer vacation job. Follow
ing graduation, he trekked to
the New Hampshire College of
Agriculture and Mechanical Arts
now New Hampshire State
College - to teach calculus.
There, he says, 81 offered to
solve any problem that they
could find right before them in
class. They never tripped me
Qp Will one, GltloT.
He explains that this was
''just a trick" to get students to
work a little harder and ''it was
good training for me, too" Cleo
Craig, present president of
A. T. & T., who Mr.. Cooper says,
II helped raise from a pup" de-
clares it was with such little
tricks that 'Proc endeared him
self to us. Here he was a vice
president for vice presidents. He
didn't try to run us; instead he
personally saw to it that each of
us did the best job that was in
u.s."
In New Hampshire, Mr..
Cooper found Lenora Elizabeth
Parsons, whom he married in
1909, but not his career. After a
year of teaching he decided to
join the Bell System at Newark
as a junior engineer, because
the company seemed genuinely
interested in the progress of
young men," Mr.. Cooper stayed
at Newark for a few months
and was taught to splice cable,
install telephone and find a
short IN a central office switch
board.
Within three months the word
'Junior" was quietly dropped
and he was promoted to District
Plant Engineer. By 1916 he was
division plant superintendent of
the New York Telephone Com
pany, with his headquarters at
Albany. After two years he was
sent to Washington to help the
Chesapeake and Potomac Tele-
phone Company meet urgent
needs for wartime expansion.
1T was one of the toughest
jobs / ever had to keep ahead of
the Governments need for ad-
ditional SERVICE" he recalls.
When Mr.. Cooper arrived in
Washington the Government
had 1000 telephones in use,
manned through a our-position
switchboard. Within eighteen
months, Mr.. Cooper had trans
formed the set-up to $4,000
phones, a forty-position board
and a special building to handle
it all.
Ohio Peacemaker
He was sent to Ohio following
the war to help end the bank
rupting wars of eight independ-
ent telephone companies. He
succeeded in putting these indie
pendent companies together in
a unified corporation. He was
elected president of the consoli-
dated Ohio company at the age
of SO.
Mr.. Cooper stayed in Ohio un-
til 1926, when Mr.. Clifford sent
for him and offered him the vice
presidency in charge of finance
of the parent company in New
York. In May, 1916, he was ap-
pointed executive vice president

that Charles Proctor Cooper is
ready for the shelf that is usually
marked emeritus"

clans lurk to make us feel better

Worse-hardly an adequate the
atre of activity for a former
SIPS, 5,000-a-year vice chairman of
the Bell System. And he earned
that salary in the low-tax days
when $125,000 was respectable
sum.
Mr.. Cooper, who left Mother
BelP' for Presbyterian in 1948,
says the above impression of a
hospital is quite erroneous. Ad-
ministering the Columbia-Pres-
byterian Medical Center (Which
includes Babies Hospital, Hark-
ness Pavilion, the Institute of
Ophtamology, Mary Harkness
Home, the Neurological Insti-
tute,, New York Orthopaedic
Hospital, Presbyterian Hospital,
Sloane Hospital for Women, the
Squier THEOLOGICAL Clinic and the
Vanderbilt Clinic) has kept Mr..
Cooper very busy for thirteen
years and more, he declares.
Two Long Range Jobs
This has been the case more
especially because Mr.. Cooper
has been charged with two
major problems since World
War H. One was the disburse-
ment of $l2 million-most of it
from the benefactions of Edward
Harkness, the Standard Oil
millionaire. Mr.. Cooper spent
this fortune undermining and
unifying Medical Center's -e-
sources for patient care, teach
ing and research.
The other problem was little
more remote from the ordinary
concerns of man schooled in
finance and electrical engineer
ing. 1t was more in the nature
of personnel problem. When
the hundreds of Presbyterian s
doctors and internes dropped
everything in 1941 and 1912 ard
went to their nations defense,
they left gap, which was
gratefully filled by doctors from
the European countries overrun
by Hitler.
When the pre-War .interns and
juniors returned after VI Day
Mr.. Cooper saw to it that they
did not suffer for their patrio-
tism and that the European doc
tors did not suffer for having
filled the breach. He, went to the
trustees and obtained the funds
to see that the returning staff
was set up in private and semi
private practice and given
teaching positions in the various
clinics.
Mr. Cooper is so reserved that
he gives the impression of shy
ness, although it is difficult to
see how anyone truly self-effac-
ing could have left his mark on
such disparate organizations as
the Bell Telephone System and
the largest voluntary hospital
group in the nation.

TOWN TALK AT
CENTURY CLUB
Town Manager Rex ID. Gil
more Gives Financial Pic
ture of Smyrna
TREE PLANTING PLAN

The financial picture in Smyrna
is consistent with that of all
municipalities in the United
States who are experiencing rapid
growth, Town Manager Rex d.
Gilmore told members of the
Twentieth Century Club Thursday
night. Mr.. Gilmore had just re-
turned from a four-day confer
ence of city managers held in
Washington, D. c. He explained
with the use of graph the
towns bonded indebtedness and
the sources of income, including
electric collections, taxes, water
and sewer collections. He said
that there is no surplus on taxes,
with those funds all going into
improvements that have been
made. He emphasized that the tax
rate is determined by each coun-
Gil which has a changing person
mel from year to year. A chart
was used to show receipts and
disbursements, and he suggested
that the town should have sink
ing fund. He told of the develop
ment of another town well, and
of the need for a new well every
ten years. Mr.. Gilmore congratu-
lated the Century Club for the
great improvement to their pro-
perty, and mentioned also the
many property owners on Com
merce Street who have improved
their buildings since the street
was repaved. He outlined the pro-
posed tree planting program, in
which the club will cooperate
with the town of Smyrna. The
speaker was presented by Mrs.
Howard Sparks, chairman of pro-
gram. There were vocal solos by
Mrs. Earl Field, of the Round
Table Club, who was accompan-
led by Mrs. Lloyd Lofand. Miss
Mary M. Holland presided and
announced that the cookbooks
are now available. She expressed
appreciation of the care of the
clubs grand piano by Cooper
Moving and Storage during the
renovations to the club house.
Mrs. Walter Hill was chairman
of the committee of hostesses.
