Bus for School

WORTHWHILE. Mich, Dec.
26 (AP) Young patients at
Worthwhile State Mental Hos
pital have a new bus. a Christ
mas gift made possible by a
mountain of trading stamps
sent in from across the Nation.
More than 1000 individuals
and organizations contributed
a total of 2.301,600 trading
stamps so that the youngsters
would have the bus to attend
school at nearby Hawthorn.
The Hawthorn Worthwhile
chapter of the Michigan As
sociation for Emotionally Dis
turbed Children included the
bus on the patients Christmas
list last May.
"They put the bus on the
list almost as a joke" said Mrs.
Charles E. Dell, jr., chairman
of the chapters bus committee.
The bus plea was spread by
word-of-mouth and later by
newspaper articles.
The chapters volunteers re-
ceived stamps from throughout
Michigan and from as far away
as California and by Monday,
had filled 1913 books. This
was 247 books short of the
number needed.
The trading stamp firm de-
livered the bus to the hospital
Christmas morning, confident
that, with more stamps still
pouring in, the volunteers
would be able to make up the
difference later.

Criticized Gifts
Are Snapped Up

>TRACADIE. N. B.. Dec. 26
(AP) "A Catholic parish priest
says that his parishioners
snapped up Christmas gifts
from United States airmen that
were criticized locally as being
of poor quality.
The Rev. Arthur Duguay said
the shipment of fruit, chocolate
bars and clothing from airmen
at MacDill Air Force Base in
Florida seemed to have gone
with wind" in the nearby COM
munity of Brantville.
Airmen at the Florida base
collected the Christmas gifts
and had them flown more than
$500 miles to Brantville after
finding notes attached to i'm
ported Christmas trees telling
of hard times in the northern
New Brunswick community.
Claude Savoie. member of the
New Brunswick legislature, con-
tended that most of the fruit
was spoiled and that the cloth
ing was unusable. He called
the offering an insult to the
residents.
! Father Duguay said a num-
ber of parishioners met with
him in his office and expressed
willingness to accept the pres
ents. The priest said his peo-
pie were thankful for the gifts
and appreciated the airmen's
efforts.

Church Designer
Aims at CONGREGATION

VANCOUVER (AP) -
Churches, like homes, should
be designed for those who live
in them, says architect William
Wilding.
Color, light, fabric and the
use of appropriate wood can
induce worshipful response on
the part of the church-goer,
just as a well-planned home
gives a sense of warmth and
security to a family, he says.
Wilding says the order of serv-
ice of the church should have
an effect ON the design of the
building:
Some denominations require
a church that could almost be
classed as an auditorium, others
with a strong emphasis OH IL
turgy require focusing of the
main attention on the chancel
and the minister.

for use while the bus was being
repaired. Then a bake sale held
by the parents netted $75 and
several donations were received.
AS a result the bus again is
running from Nitro to the Glen

Of water.
The water which poured into
the basement some time Sun

heating equipment in the 49,

heating plant, the electrical
plant ana the automatic con-
trolls for keeping the building

water when the flood was dis
covered shortly after 8 am.

800 Gallons a Minute
A building engineer making
routine check of the basement
of the 81 million structure made
the discovery and called fire
men. BY the time they arrived,
water apparently had been
flowing into the basement at
the rate Of 800 gallons a minute
for 20 hours.
The first firemen on the
scene said a 112-inch plug in
hot water tank may have
blown, allowing water from a
connecting city water main to
pour in. They Immediately shut
off the water main and began
pumping.
Chief Galotta said the siphon-
ing system was working at a
rate of about l inch Of water
an hour at first, so it was de-
cided to put on rotating shifts
of firemen to step up the pace.

Company No. S worked in sub

formed on the streets and side

as the water coated their boots
and coats with ice.
1T may be late today before
we can determine exactly what
caused the water to flood the

IF the building engineer hadn't
discovered the flood when he
did. the water level would have
just kept going on up until it
