Judge Holtzof said the Fire
Department acted properly in
dismissing former Capt. Emile

Sc. after he was convicted of
embezzling funds from the
Firemen's Family and Frater-
nal Relief Association.

refused to rule on this issue
when he learned it was not in
cluded in the original COM

He said Daigle, however,
could seek full retirement, bene-
f1ts at later date. The District
has agreed to pay Daigle only
what he paid into the District

proximately 80 years of service.

be portrayed Tin a superbly
maSterful performance by

completely obsessed with
developing rockets for space
travel. He joined the Nazi
party only to insure continu-
uation of his experiments. He
pushed his work forward Wig

about the fact that the Ger

at London civilians and not

They discovered plenty Of
anti-Nazi Germans who
