bation There considerable number OF people
in he population who do not believe that This true
and the number TO be growing rather than declining
There people advertising who do be-
eve this statement and likely TO apologize for bit Of
overenthusastc trade pufe And certainly there people
advertising who will depore the whole idea of anything like
an Advertising Week being much TOO crude and too
and foo corny for them TO identify with
The theme sounds little boasffuI u.s. But happens
to be the truth and suggest that the bahfu
reluctant ad not forget this if and when he apologies

We would like far indeed suggest that more
advertising people than ought cooperate actively the

Telephones Here
May Get Several
Changes In Rates

West jefferson telephone sub
scribers may soon realize their de-
sire of being able to call Colum-
bus without long distance charg-
es, but they will be paying the
same monthly telephone bills as
Columbus residents pay when the
change comes. At least those are
some of the proposals which will
be submitted TO the Public Utili-
ties Commission when Ohio Bell
seek rate increases and changes in
the near future.
The proposals also include flat
charge of $500 for any service
connection or move-change in
stead of item charges, and would
eleminate the present charges for
extra length and spring cords. The
plans to be submitted would sub
stitute flat charges for mileage
charges on private lines, PIX
lines and other special services as
well as sinplification of service
rates on key telephones, substitut-
ing minimum rates for lines,
switching and signaling services.
Toll rates in the Ohio Bell Sys-
tenn, to stations more than sixty
four miles would be decreased for
daytime calls, and charges on
shorter calls would be increased.
Zoning and zone. rates would be
utilized in exchange areas instead
of charging mile rates for private
lines and special lines.
While the full details of the spe-
cial services and rates were not
available, it was pointed out that
increased rates will be asked in
the request to the Public Utilities
Commission.
Many of these changes would
affect rates and services in the en-
tire area, while others, such as the
Observation-Disclosures calls, would
be pertinent only to specific areas.

They'll Profit BY Their Mistakes
Farm Families Look AT Past For
Kew To Successful Future Work

A number of farm families in
Madison County are taking sec
ond look at their farm and home
records, by analyzing the past
years operations and working out
plans for the coming year, Alvin
w. Barr, County Supervisor of the
Farmers Home Administration,
reported this week.
He explained that help with
year-end analysis as a basis for
next years planning is part of the
farm management help that goes
with most Farmers Home Admin
istration loans. Farm families US
ing the agencys credit develop
longtime farm and home plans
when they apply for loans to buy,
enlarge, or operate their farms, or
make certain adjustments and inn
provements. Then at the beginning
of each years operations they
make annual plans based on what
they intend to accomplish during
the year.
The county supervisor supplies
each family with a simple farm
and home record book as part of
the farm management aid. When
necessary, he shows the family
how to keep track of income,
costs, results of specific opera
tions, debt payments, and other
items that are parts of the busi-
ness of farming.
At the end of the farming year,
the farmer and his wife find out
h ow their farming operations
matched up with the plans they
had made. To help do this they set
a definite date to meet with the
Farmers Home Administration
county supervisor, and go over
their farm and home plans and
their filled-in record book.
With the county supervisors
help, they analyze the progress,
successes, and mistakes. For ex-
ample, if their records show that
a certain livestock or crop enter
prise failed to work out satisfac-
torily, they look for reasons such
as improper feeding or breeding
practices, inadequate pasture or
housing, seed selection, or fertili-
zation. Then they are ready to
correct their mistakes and con-
tinue good practices, so far as
their next years plans are con-
cerned.
This work was started early in
January and much of the county
supervisors time until March will
be devoted to this part of the
agency's farm management serv-
ice.

CALHOUN SCORES and
VICTORY OVER BOYD;
BEATS cHIcAGOAN IN 10

Chicago ANP)-Relying chief
ly on his tremendous stamina and
punching power, rough, tough
Rory Calhoun of White Plains, N.
Y. last Wednesday night outmauled
and outpunched Bobby Boyd to
Score his second straight victory
over the Chicagoan in a hard
fought middleweight bout before
a small crowd in the stadium.
Winner over Boyd by a two
round knockout last November.
Calhoun again proved too tough
for the lanlxy sharp-shooter by
scoring an unanimous decision.
The bout, promoted by the IBC
was televised nationally. From the
start it was obvious Boyd, one
time top ranking middleweight
contender, couldn't cope with Cal
houn's big punch and had to rely
on his superior boxing skill. How
ever, Calhoun, who fights similar
to former heavyweight champion
Rocky Marciano, overcame this by
boring in the scoring with pelting
overland punches.
Two such punches dropped Boyd
on his launches. Rory caught him
with right hand punch on the back
of his head in the second round and
floored him for the mandatory
eight count. When Boyd got up
Calhoun swarmed all over him but
was unable to put over the big
punch as Bobby hung on and TIED
him up.
Boyd's head cleared and he came
out fighting in the third, utilizing
a stabbing left jsb from thai
point onward to keep the over
charging Rory at bay. However
in the ninth, Calhoun, weaving
low, sneaked over another right
which put Boyd down for a sec,
ond. Bobby leaped TO his feet, pro,
testing he slipped but Referrt
Walter Brightmore forced him to
take the eight count.
The best round, from the stand,
point of about action, was the
ninth. In that frame, Boyd rallied
and toward the end had Calhoun
in trouble. But by then the steam
was gone from his punches and he
could not put Rory down.
All three officials had Calhoun
ahead. Referee Brghtmore favored
him, 1912, Judge John Bray, As.
A, and Judge James McManus
47-43.
Calhoun now has an overall
record Of 35 wins, four losses and
one draw. At one time he had a
winning streak Of % straight.
Boyd dropped his ninth in a total
of go bouts. He won 4s and drew
three times.
