McIlWalne, division Superlnten-
dent in Prince Edward since
1919, has said he will not be a
candidate for reappointment.
The board chairman indicated
selection of a new superintendent
would be handled by the board if
possible. A committee consisting
of George Palmer. member from
Green Bay. and DR.. Smith will
make further study of the mat
ter.
Appointment of a Superinten-
dent must under Virginia law be
made by school board by May
l, or the responsibility for nam
ing new school head shifts to
the State Board of Education.
The special committee plans to
confer with the state board prior
to May to iron our certain ar
engagements, DR.. Smith said. He
declined to specify any arrange
ments under consideration, but
noted a special meeting of the
board would probably follow the
Richmond trip in order to beat
the May l deadline for local APP
pointment.
The new man must come from
a certified list of some 300 per-
sons termed eligible by the state
board.
Without the operation of public
schools. the superintendent re-
sponsibility would primarily con-
Germ handling tuition scholarship
applications. student records, and
routine administrative business,

school property is maintained.
The new appointee would likely
become involved in the ten-year-
old desegregation suit.

served as division superintendent
in both Prince Edward and Cum
berland. However. effective July
], the school administration of
the two counties will become
separate units.
In other business. the board re-
ceived a report from McIlwaine
that the roof repairing project at
Farmville High School had been
completed for $500.

Chamber Has
Timely Talk;
Adopts Calendar

A discussion of the suitability
of Daylight Saving Time for
Farmville produced lively, but
indecislve interlude during the
Monday dinner meeting of the
Chamber of, Commerce.
Proponents of fast time car
ried their arguments once as
far as a motion to endorse. and
again to the suggestion that the
town council be petitioned to
work for adoption. In the end,
however, a substitute motion to
table the matter for lack of
time and want of information to
form an opinion carried, 13 to
9. A considerable number more
abstained from voting.
The discussion finally trailed
off into a consideration of what
would be the least confusing: a
town out of time step with the
state capital city and many other
cities where business men have
interests, or a Farmville trad
ing center on confusing fast time
when the majority of rural Gus
tomesr are sticking to Standard
Time?
To Contact Council
Members decided that it would
take more time than is now left
for this year to riddle that one.
However, Chamber President
John D. Wilson said he would
present to the town council di
gest Of the pro and con ideas
presented during the Chamber
discussion
Members did agree that the
Virginia summer of 1861 with the
State divided into varying time
regions will be a confusing one.
w. c. Fitzpatrick, Chamber
legislative chairman. said no
authority exists for the town to
adopt Daylight Time Without
specific legislative authority. any
town council action would be
merely persuasive in nature. he
told members.
Proponents cited the usual
arguments advanced for fast
time: the longer hours of evening

| 1t is within the realm of pos
sibility that passage Of this law
could allow a trucking firm to
biuld a depot in the heart of any
city's finest residential area.
If land is available in both
residential or industrial sections
in the same general area, there
is nothing in the bill which
would require a public or private
utility firm to acquire the in

Zoning laws. notwithstand-
ing, all the utility company
needs to do is to appeal the local
regulation to the PUG.
Then, three men (the COM
mission) many miles away and
far removed from the local
scene determine a question with
little or no knowledge of the
serious consequences that the
municipality would be subject
to.
Different Standards
The proposed bill does not
require the commission to weigh
the merits of zoning legislation
by the same standards as the
local body enacting it.
Another serious concern is
the effect this law would have
on urban renewal developments.
These projects are reconstruc-
ton and redevelopments of
huge areas, some exceeding 1000
acres in size.
The financing requires there
be no deviation from the orig
inal scope of the entire project;
otherwise, adequate financing
cannot be realized.
For example, a trucking
firm could make a strong case
before the PUG in placing a
terminal in the heart of an
Urban Renewal area.
1t has been pointed out that
adequate safeguards are pres

tered my calculations. Twenty.
one games behind the leaders
last year, our Tribe was not
even a good fourth.
But I'm guessing that improv-
ed pitching by Gary Bell, Jim
Grant and Bobby Locke, supple
menting Jim Perry's work, will
help close that gap. Johnny An
tonelli may make brilliant con-
tributions, but I'm reserving
judgment on the new lefthander.
1t is difficult for me to under
stand how a pitcher can drop
from 19 victories to only six
just because he's unhappy in
San Francisco.
Willie Kirkland should be a
definite plus and look for good
seasons on the part of Tito
Francona and John Romano.
Bubba Phillips spring work has
been encouraging. Jim Piersall
and Vic Power need be no better
than they were in 1860.
Key Men
Key Men probably will be
Woodie Held and John Temple.
If they can avoid new injuries
or occurrences of old ones-the
first line will form a solid club
operating under slightly salts
factory management. Jimmie
Dykes is on the asset side.
AL Lopez, another able pilot,
speaks confidently of the pros
poets of his Chicago White Sox.
My own willingness to peg them
as low as fourth may trace in
part all the way back to their
failure in the 1859 World Series.
l hope Early Wynn, Cal Nc
Lish, Al Smith and my other
friends with the Sox do well
but this could be a team which
reached it's peak two years agoI
and must be rebuilt before i'll
will win another pennant.
Twins Fifth
Well I'd better stop this
detailed analysis. or the race
will be over before you finish
reading it. For the doubtful dis
tinction of being the leagues
first club to finish fifth with
out leaving the first division,
pick the Minnesota Twins on
the basis of their work last
year, some solid slugging and
the enthusiasm of their new fans
in Minneapolis and st. Paul.
The Twins, you know, are the
old Washington Senator's. The
new Senators may wind up 10th,
as I've predicted, and between
them should stand the Tigers,
Red Sox and Athletics.
Since | seldom see the Nation
al League clubs, my opinion of
that circuit is even less reliable
than my appraisal of the Amer
lean. But l suspect the Pirates,
gifted and well-balanced though
they are, do not have the make
up of a two-year winner. The
Dodgers, | gather, are on the
verge of establishing a dynasty
and 1861 may be its starting
point.

"This impairs the value OF
real estate, increases the burden
of the police department and
generally lowers the standard OF
the community" he asserted.
The proposed legislation woulc
allow municipalities to establish
liquor permit quotas upon ap-
proval of the voters and it would
also force the liquor department
to recognize local zoning laws
At present, zoning regulations
that put liquor places in a sepa-
rate category are considered by
the courts as invalid.
Judge Adams has been q
guiding light in not only getting
the bill introduced in the state
legislature. but also in getting
groups and individuals interest
ed in the vital issue.
Not an Easy Task
At the Kiwanis meeting, he
warned that it was not an easy
task to get such a bill made into
law.
"The liquor lobby in Columbus
is powerful. and will go all out
to defeat this measure" he said.
Judge Adams also advised
that another liquor spot in East
Cleveland will be met with a To-
cal option drive that will dry
up an entire neighborhood.
He said he was opposed to
such action and called it "a cost
ly and clumsy operation"
He gave some vital statistics
concerning liquor such as that
one out Of every 20 dollars in
this country goes"for liquor.
He also explained that under
the population quota system, an
additional 604 liquor licenses will
become available in Ohio during
1861.
"Sixty-four of these are in
Cuyahoga County; all of them
in the suburbs" he said.
