An interesting story is going the rounds and should be
continued its by people everywhere It's about store
keeper who in traditional fashion, said thank you to
lady customer he took her for her purchase and
she surprised him by SAYING:
Thank you! You've done big favor as have
you wanted this item than wanted the money paid
for it. We both profit"
That is the way of all free enterprise for purchase
voluntary exchange for which the customer is
as grateful the merchant.
That would be good story to get to the of Khrsh-
chev when he to this country Voluntary free enter
prise designed to make people happy supplies what we
want and so doing created the richest nation in the
world.
Does anyone in his right mind want to exchange this
for government-managed economy welfare statlsm' or
socialism, in which ultimately nobody is satisfied?

stretch of red tape She must
present her objections in writing
to the clerk of the Circuit court
within certain period after be-
ing notified that she had been
called to duty. Three women did
object. They were Agatha Black
Beachley, Patience w. Grant and
Halle B. Pritts. But when new
names were selected to fill the
vacancies. two of them were
women. Selected in the second
group were Pearle E. Campbell,
Glenna Dewitt and George l..
Porter. All we're assigned to the
petit jury. Dewey Gnegy was eX-
cused from serving on the grand
jury and Webster c. Herring was
named in his stead.
The grand jury, after converting
on Monday morning will hear the
charge to the jurors delivered by
Associate Judge Neil c. Fraley
after which they will begin their
investigation into alleged infrac-
lions of the laws. When their in
vestigations are completed they

Judge Will Issue
Opinion in Suit

Associate Judge Neil c. Fraley
will file an opinion in civil ac-
ton heard yesterday in the Cir
cult court here between owners of
a Deep Creek Lake motel on U. S..
route 2l9, and owners of a coop
housing chickens on the other side
of the highway.
Mr.. and Mrs. Oswald Vannucci,
owners of Point View Inn, brought
suit for an injunction against Mr..
and Mrs. Carl Harvey, owners of
the chickens.
Witnesses, including number of
motel guests, testified on behalf
of the plaintiffs and several testi-
fled for the defendants. The trial
opened at 10 a. M, and concluded
at 4:30 p. m when Judge Fraley
indicated he would file an opinion
later.
In the declaration filed by Fred
erick A. Thayer and Stuart F.
Hamill, Jr., of Oakland, attorneys
for the plaintiffs, it was contended
that the chickens had lowered the
value of their property. They also
declared that the chickens kept
their tenants awake.
The object of the suit is to have
an injunction issued against the
Harveys, ordering them to move
their chicken coop.
In the answer filed by Horace P.
Whitworth, Jr, Westernport, at
torney for the defendants, he
countered that the tourists stay
ing at the motel disturb the chick
ems and as a result they have
stopped laying, or have reduced
the number of eggs. He also con-
tended the chickens were there
first.

Seven students of Southern High
school and bennett Road Elc-
mentary school were killed this
morning when the school bus of
Leroy Campbell, 49, stalled on the
Mt. Lake Park crossing and was
struck by the Diplomat east bound
passenger train. 1t was the worst
accident in the history of bus
transportation in the county, and
was the first time for a fatality in
the school programs history.
Four we're killed instantly and
we're taken to the Minnich Funer-
al home in Oakland Three others
we're taken to the hospital and
were pronounced dead there. At
least twelve others were in various
degrees Of injury, some of them
seriously Eight others we're given
emergency treatment at the hos
pital but were not injured, hos
pital attaches said.
Six of the seven killed we're
identified before noon today. They
were Lee Hoffman, son of Raymond
Hoffman; Merle Harvey and Nancy
Lee Harvey, children of Mrs. Shir-
ley Wright; Nancy Deems, Rich
ard Hinkle and Shirley Lee. One
other girl had not yet been def

Hinkle, Frances Dixon and Sandra

vey, Larry Harvey, Victor Erwin,
Roy Dixon, Gladys Dixon, David
Friend and Marjorie Paugh
School officials were trying to
make a detailed check of whom
should have been on the bus and
who had not reported to school
this morning.
Leroy Campbell, the driver, was
in a state of shock at the hospital
but apparently was not seriously
injured. He said that the bus
stalled on the crossing. He tried to
get it into gear but failed and
when he saw the train approach
ing he ordered the children to get
out quickly. He thought all but
twelve or fifteen had been able to
get out of the bus safely.
The rear of the bus was jutting
over the eastbound track and it
was caught by the Diesel and car
ried up the track for about 100
feet. The rear of the bus was
totally demolished. The blinker
lights we're still operating when
people began to arrive on the
scene. All available ambulances
we're called into service and all
students we're taken to the hos
pital.
Willard L. Hawkins, county
superintendent of schools, said
there would have been students
on the bus from both Southern
High and bennett road elementary.
Just a few days ago some children
had been transferred to the Den
nett Road school from the Deer
Park school on account of crowded
conditions, and should have been
passengers on the bus. The bus
