BLOOD BANK WAS
VITAL AFTER WRECK

Persons who have contributed
to the regular visits of the
American Red Cross Blood Mo-
bile Unit had reason to be
proud Sunday. The accident
which caused severe injuries to
seven London people demanded
immediate whole blood, and it
was available, according to DR..
E. S. Crouch, the attending ply
sician.
The fact that the whole blood
was available probably saved
lives of several in the accident,
including one patient who re-
ceived five pints. According to
DR.. Crouch, when the needs
were filled, the Mt. Carmel sup
ply of Type 20" blood was ex-
hausted.
Fellow employees of Russell
O'Neill, one of the victims, left
their jobs at the Kroger store
Monday and went to Columbus
to replace part of the blood.
They were George Rutledge,
Bob Feeley, Tom Bricker, Don
McCord and Evelyn Upton.

Mayor Braithwaite pointed to
the many dangers involved in the
traffic violations, and said that he
has ordered strict enforcement of

penalties by law.
He said several complaints have

of $500 for such an offense, and
said the owners of the dogs Cor

A new organization in the Lon
don Schools is the newly formed
London Hi Dance Band. The group
was organized and rehearsed for
the first time in November.
The 10-piece band is under the
supervision of Ray Creighton, di-
rector of music in the city schools.
The dance band made its initial
appearance in a demonstration re-
hearsal held in the schools music
room during the open house of the
Parent Teacher Association in De-
cember. Last Friday the band
made its first appearance before
the high school student body and
faculty when they were a special
feature of the pep meeting. On
February 10 they will provide mu-
sical entertainment for the P.-T.A
The dance band will not replace
or interfere with other school mu-
sical organizations or use school
time for rehearsals which are con-
Quoted for an hour and half after
school on Wednesdays. The mem
bers also play in the high school
marching and concert bands. No
school credit is given to the stu
dents belonging to the organiza-
ton.
Purpose and benefits of the or
ganization outlined by Creighton
were:
l. To play tor social arraIrs of
the school, thus meeting a very
important need in providing enter
tainment for the student body un
der school supervision.
2. To serve as a medium to let
the student satisfy his urge to play
in a dance band, and while doing
so be properly instructed along
these lines.
3. To elevate the school party

County's Farmers
Eligible In US.
Reserve Program

Farmers in Madison County
might we'll benefit from oppor-
tunities offered through the Soil
Banks Acreage Reserve program
for spring-planted crops, Lloyd
Roby, Chairman of the Madison
Agricultural Sterilization and Con-
servation Committee, advised to-
day
Any farmer who has an "old
farm" acreage allotment for corn
can put any part of these "allot-
ment" acres in the program, Chair
man Roby explained Farmers who
have acreage allotments, for the
first time in 1858 = so called new
farm allotments = are not eligible
to participate.
Farmers who want to take part
in the program under which
they withhold allotment acres from
production in return for a payment
designed to maintain net farm in
come on that land - have to sign
an agreement with their county
ASC Committee specifically desig-
mating the land on their farm to be
put in the Acreage Reserve. Land
designated for the program must
be cropland that could produce in
1858 the eligible crop for which al
lotment acreage is put in the pro-
gram and it must have produced a
crop during one of the past five
years.
The Acreage Reserve signup for
spring-planted crops closes March
I Z, 1858.
Mr.. Roby explained that the S3,-
600 limitation on payments under
the 1858 Acreage Reserve of the
Soil Bank will be applied to each
producer with regard to each farm
in which he has an interest, rather
than as ceiling on the amount
paid him for all farms in which he
has an interest.
This means, for example, that a
farmer who owns two Seperate
farms, one of which he farms him
self and the second one he leases
to a tenant, may be eligible for a
limit of $1,000 in Acreage Reserve
payments on each farm. The ten
ant on the farm would also be eligi-
BILE for limit of $1,000. In other
words, on the second farm, both
owner and tenant could each re-
ceive payments up to $1,000.
The Chairman also pointed out
that the payment limitation applies
to the total payments for all the
crops put in the 1858 Acreage Re-
serve on an individual farm.
The ASC Chairman advised
farmers who plan on putting acre
age under the 1858 Acreage Re-
serve, and who do not already have
a Soil Bank base established for
their farms, to bring their 1862
farm records to the county office.
These acreage records are neces-
sary to establish the "Soil Bank
base" for their farms. The estab-
lishment of the Soil Bank base is
now necessary before producer
may sign 1858 Acreage Reserve
agreement.

the interior and putting on a new
roof.
Although no official estimates
are available, councilnen express
sed the opinion that the renovation
can be done at many thousand dol
lars less than the original estimate
on new building, and without
such an added tax burden on the
villagers.
Braithwaite told council in their
first session that he had been
working on an idea to get back in
the village owned property within
less than a year. The renovation
would give added space for police
officers and council as well as
other badly needed village office
space, according to the mayor.
Council, in the special session,
expressed confidence in the plan,
and voiced the opinion that they
are very hopeful that a plan will
be worked out which will prove
satisfactory to all concerned.

Mayor Suspends
Fine Pending
Good Behavior

London newspaper publisher, j
r. Conway, was arrested at his
home here Monday on charge of
parking violation. Police Chief
German Clark and Officer John
Sherman made the arrest on
warrant signed by Clark. Chief
Clark said that he signed the ar
rest warrant at the behest of
Mayor Jenkinson. Conway had
protested the issuance of a park
ing ticket earlier in the day which
claimed that he had parked illegal
ly in a downtown driveway. Con-
way was fined $50 and costs, both
of which were suspended for one
year pending good behavior"
After pleading NOT guilty, Con-
way stated that he had parked his
automobile in "a space which he
claimed is a metered zone but
which has no meter. He said that
the parking meter covering the
space in question had been Illegal
ly removed at the time the social
ed driveway" was built. He furth-
er stated that he did not feel that
the charge against him was a fair
one inasmuch as the mo parking"
sign at the site was placed there by
someone other than the police de-
partment. IT was also brought out
during the hearing that a candy
vendor who chanced to be in the
mayors office at the time stated
that he had permission" to park
in the exact location.
Chief Clark, when called upon to
testify, said that "he was not sure"
whether or not the parking spare
in question is legal or not He also
stated that he wished that the
parking ordinance would be clari-
fled since great many changes IN
rnetering had been made in the
past few years.
Mayor Jenkinson then steted
that in his opinion, Conway had
made many attempts" in the past
to point up" certain inadenuacies
in the enforcement of local laws.
Jenkinson said that while such ac-
tions were perhaps to be COM
mended, he intends to run his adj
nninistration "ynv own waV." He
said that he will mot tolerate" the
actions of anvone who attempts to
criticize by what he called point
ing up defects" He also accused
the defendant of causing trouble"
in making an issue" of the ALLEGED
offense. The normal fine for such a
violation is said to be 81.
Conway said that he had chided
the mayor earlier in the day about
the parking situation here and
that the mayor seemed perturbed
when it was pointed out that hund-
reds of people are forced to pay
legitimate parking fines while a
great many cars parked on side
walks are not ticketed nor disturb
ed in any manner. Previously.
