2 Lucky Seniors
Awarded Watches

Time Stood Still''i for two
lucky seniors at John Bassett
Moore High School when the
hands of the clock in Sayers
Jewellers stopped on theirnames.
The students who were award
ed Bulova wrist watches were
Ruth Fox and Richard Bailey.
For the tenth consecutive year
the firm has arranged a huge
face for a clock which is start
ed running in the window of
the store on Main Street. This
year the clock was started by
Carol Guarro, and for many
days the anxious seniors have
waited for the clock to stop.
Members of the senior class had
their names on segments of the
artificial face of the clock, the
boys in the outer yellow circle,
and the girls in an inner blue
circle. The graduates were al
lowed to choose the hour where
they wanted their names placed.
The clock runs for about 120
hours and interest is keen until
the lucky winners are known.

Councilmen Take
Brushes In Hand,
Aid Lake Project

The phenomenon of the mem
bers of Town Council welding
paint brushes instead of sitting
around the council tables was
noted by residents of Smyrna
on Tuesday night, when they
saw Mayor Robert Riddagh and
councilmen at work painting
the renovated pavilion on the
Main Street front at Lake Como.
In a light-hearted frame of mind
at the close of the council meet
ing Friday night some of the
members of council agreed to
the suggestion of Councilman
Lloyd Pleasanton that with the
improved appearance at the lake
due to the work of the town
crews, some white paint was
needed. In their eagerness to
add to the new look" at the
lake, the councilmen assembled
at 6 o'clock p. M, Tuesday to
begin their self-imposed task.
1t was expected that there was
a group of citizens on hand to
do "the heavy bossing."

Lights To Go Up

Smyrna Town Council author
lied the purchase of a right
angle belt drive for the new
deep well pump at South Main
Street and Lake Drive. The in
stallation of this drive unit will
permit use of a farm tractor
belt drive for pumping water in
case of emergency caused by
electric power failure. This ac-
tion was taken following ex-
planation by town manager Rex
D. Gilmore of the need for this
unit and its value in time of
emergency. The preliminary re-
port by Harry P. Corson, Della
ware District Supervisor, Bureau
of Census, of the recent census
in the Town of Smyrna showed
a total of 3l99. This figure is
subject to minor revisions and
the official count will be releas-
ed later. There were 2346 per-
sons listed in the 1850 census,
showing an increase of 36.3%.
The new weed ordinance was
read by Mr.. Gilmore and details
will appear in the local paper
on successive weeks. The en-
forcement of the ordinance will
be part of the towns effort in
health measure and mosquito
control. The building committee
will investigate complaint about
violation of the weed ordinance
at the property corner South
and Union Streets, and inform
council of the conditions. 1t
was revealed in letter to coun-
Gil that there will be no state
