Registers Opposition
To Liquor Question

At a hearing before the Alco-
holic Beverages committee at the
State House at Annapolis on Tues
day afternoon, Leslie E. Savage,
chairman of the delegation and
Eliza f. Bray, member, both regis
tered their opposition to House
Bill No. 431, which would make it
legal to sell Whiskcy and wine in
Garrett county
The measure was introduced in
the House several days ago by
Delegate Ebert Bucket.
Mr.. Savage told the committee
he felt he was carrying out the
mandate of the people who de-
feated liquor bill in 1856, by con-
tinuing to oppose any form of
liquor legislation for this county.
Bray, who also previously had de-
clared his opposition to the bill,
told the committee the same thing.
Arguing for the measure was
Delegate Bucket, and supporting
him were County Commissioners
Carl Schcll and Fred Glotfelty.
Bucket also declared Mr. Savage
said, that the bill which he pre-
scented was one that would be ac-
ceptable to Senator Bernard l.
Gender.
Mr. Savage said that the Alco-
holic Beverages committee did not
take any vote on the measure. If
the vote was unfavorablc and the
majority of the Garrett county
delegation upheld, the bill would
be killed in committee.

.Corvettes Race
But Not On Lake

The Corvette club of Western
Pennsylvania found ice on Sum
day for their time trials at Deep
Creek Lake, but it wasn't on Deep
Greek Lake-it was on Skeeter
Bowmans airfield
The trials were conducted on
combination of icy grass and
wet mud and the performance was
more a controlled driving event
rather than speed. The winner
was Don Yanko, of Monroeville,
Pa, who negotiated three laps
around figure 8 course, a dis
lance of about three fourths of a
mile in one minute and forty
seconds.
Some twenty-five cars were in
volved in the event, after which
some forty-six ppersons attended
banquet at the Deep Creek
Lodge. Some 200 to 400 people
witnessed the races.
John O'Brien, director of the
Deep Creek Lake-Garrett County
Promotion Council, said the men,
bers of the Corvette club expressed
delight with Deep Creek Lake
and planned to return in the near
future.
Due to the recent thaw, the ice
on Deep Creek was not considered
suitable for the racing events.

Susan was an only child. She was
born out of wedlock. Her mother,
too, worked as domestic and a
study of the home situation showed
that the mother always kept an adj
equate home. At times she obtained
work sewing for many people, but
now is physically handicapped. An
aid to dependent children budget
has included school expenses for
Susan. Susan was an excellent stu
dent and always talked of "going on
to school" in order to become a
teacher, an ambition shared by her
mother. At the time of her gradua-

WELFARE ANSWERS
FOR TIE PEOPLE
BY
BERNADETTE w. HOYtE
Siose Welfoge Public
information Officer

(This is the 4th of a series ex-
planning public welfare in North
Carolina)
The files of the one hundred
county departments of public vel
fare in North Carolina are filled
with case histories of the aid to
dependent children program which
show the many ways that this pro-
gram has helped strengthen fami-
" life and make families independ-'
ent.
Today's case histories show one
common denomination in the families
of aid to dependent children -
that they had made a real effort
to help themselves.
One such family had four chill
dren. The father was dead and the
mother had tried in every way to
maintain satisfactory home for
her children. For a period of time
she actually lost money by work
ing outside the home, due to her
low wages as domestic worker
and the cost of transportation to
and from her job. An aid to de-
pendent children grant was obtained
for the family. All the children
were kept in school and Sarah, the
oldest, was graduated from high
school last Spring. She had express
sed q definite desire to become a
nurse. The summer before her sem
Tor year in high school she obtained
a Job and was able to earn some
money for her clothing and Incl
dental school expenses. Before grad
uation she was aided in securing
scholarship help and the whole fam
lily is excited over the fact that
Sarah will be able to continue her
schooling and become nurse.
In another case, a father had
! deserted i his wife and family of
three children. The family was ap-
proved for an aid to dependent
children grant. The mother worked
as domestic and also tried to as
sumo worthwhile role in commu-
nifty life by teaching a Sunday
School class. Rebecca, the oldest
child, was salutatorian of her high
school class. She wants to become
a teacher and the senior advisor in
her school recommended her for a
scholarship. Through the summer
months. the girl worked in an effort
to pay her own expenses and pro-
vide some of her clothing for school.
With the help of the public welfare
department, she obtained a $500
college scholarship and the agency
will assist her in getting the neces-
sary clothing which she could not

Easy Menu
For A Crowd

In almost every home there's
at least one time during the holt
days you have to prepare for a
crowd. Such meals need not be
q chore. To make them easy,
plan ahead and plan buffet
menu in which most of the work
can be done a day ahead so
you'll be able to enjoy the party
also.
Remember, it isn't necessary
to always have the same type
menu everyone else has. You
don't have to have hot ham or
hot turkey. Why not plan an
easy, prepare-ahead menu like
this: nodded chicken salad, hot
escalloped mixed vegetables, q
tray of spiced fruits such as
apples, peaches or pineapple,
and lots of buttered hot rolls.
For dessert q luscious egg nog
pie or fresh coconut cake tops
the meal off in fine style.
The chicken salad, mixed
vegetables and dessert may all
be prepared a day in advance.
The only last minute work is
just to put the vegetable cas-
serole into the oven to heat with
the rolls. What could be easier?
