BrOnsOns Takes Local Basketball League Lead

The Bronson Merchants basket ball squad took over the lead in the local league last Friday night with a 41-30 win over the Ma tional Guard Again the Bell brothers led the victor's attack, Harold hitting for 19, and George counting seven.
 In the first game of the evening the Alaska Native Brotherhood (ANB) five opened their league play with a 55-29 win over the Polar Hornets. Pete Larson, with Is scores and Darold Trigg with IA, led the winners.
 The Hornets pressed the ANB squad through the first half, but finally succumbed as the winners cleared both boards the majority of the time. With scorched Wally Parker sitting the game out, the Hornets could offer no height competition to the ANB. Clyde Nershak led the losers on the scoreboard with eight.
 The second contest likewise was close for the first half with the Merchants holding a slim ,14-11 halftime lead over the Guard five. In the third quarter, however, Harold Bell of the Merchants put in five baskets and if wasn't until late in the fourth that the Guard closed the gap somewhat to the final respectable 41-30 count.

DC-6 Lands On Foam Blanket At Boston Field

BOSTON, R - A calm United Air Lines captain landed big DC6 plane on a blanket of foam Friday night after circling Logan International Airport for an hour while his flight engineer man. handled the wheels into landing position
 The plane, enroute from Chi cago, skipped scheduled land ing at Hartford, Conn.,, when the hydraulic system operating the landing gear failed to function.
 There were Al aboard, includ- ing the crew of four with Capt. Loras Diedrich, ST. Winfield, H., in command.
 He brought the four-engined plane down smoothly in a three inch thick blanket of foam spread by emergency crews for a slide in case the plane made a belly landing.
 Passengers agreed there was no panlc or OBVIOUS .fr1ght Tn the passenger compartment.
 In the plane Flight Engineer Raymond Hackett, Chicago, moved mountain of baggage and ripped up floor, boards to get into the hydraulic pit where the wheel machinery is located. He said he found faulty wires caused the trouble, but didn't have the equipment to make re- pairs in the air. i ''I switched onto manual opera tion," he said. "As we circled Lo- gan I lowered the wheels manu- ally, using my hands and feet to do so."

5. Support constructive labor re-

adequate legislation in this regard. !"
The two Delaware legislators
promised "close attention" to Del
aware problems in the Congress
which they called their primary
responsibility" and then lit into
their opponents on this score. 1--WE
do not agree at all with the idea
of our opponents that it is the job
of a Senator or Congressman to
cart back to Delaware all the Fed
eral money that they can lay their
hands on. This philosophy, if pur-
sued by other members of Con-
gress, would be self-defeating from
the states point of view and would
lead to more and more government
spending in which Delaware would
contribute much more than it would
receive" The William-Haskell pro-
gram made these pledges.
1. Strong representation in Con-
gress and the Federal Government
for all Delaware problems.
2. All possible assistance for the
development of Delaware's water
resources. especially the Delaware
River.
8. Increase the revenue oppor-
tunities of Delaware and other
states by having the Federal Gov
ernment remove itself from fields
of taxation which the states should
have.
On the farm situation, Williams
and Haskell said farmers have been
subjected over the years to the
most cynical political game that
has been played with any group of
people. Politicians have tried to
create, through the establishment
of high, rigid price supports, the
appearance of sympathy with the
problems faced by farmers.
AT the same time these Con-
gressional Office holders and Office
seekers know that this program of
Government interference in farm
ing only piles up more and more
difficulties for the farmer and the
general public We depIore this
political hypocrisy, and we will
work for sensible farm porgram,

prove the existence of an untap-
ped multi-million dollar market for
flower seeds among new home own
ers of moderate income financially
unable to swing immediate expen-

Chosen for the pilot project was
Birch River, development of
10000 and $4,000 homes in this
Hudson River committing town an
hours train ride from New York
City.
Few of the young couples-city
1wellers before moving to the SUI
1urbs-knew the difference be-
sween crabgrass and false helle-
bore when the project got under
way last April. BY September,
however, they were veteran diggers
md weeders; their front and side
awns were ablaze with color. They
,alled plants by botanical names,
complained about the bugs wryly,
md were analyzing their mistakes
mistakes they would rectify next
year when they are on their own.
The National Garden Bureau is
delighted with the ease with which
the happy guinea pigs have become
addicted to gardening ("stimulat-
ing gardening enthusiasm" is the
bureau phrase for the activity. 1t
believes that such projects in thou
sands of communities across the
nation could open up a garden seed
market worth 81 million dollars

families in the $1,000 to $4,000 a
