Candidates Activities Are Stepped Up

Democratic differences that
Republican governmental con-
troll would be harmful to the
coutny school system were
termed hypocrisy" this week
by DR.. Thomas M. Wilson, COP
candidate for the County Coun-
Gil, in an address before the
Rural Women's Republican Club
in PooleSville.
Referring to an assertion by
Marit Thorsen, Democratic cam
didate for the House of Dele
gates, that 1--WE won't let the
Republicans take our schools
away" DR.. Wilson charged that
Democratic propaganda repre-
sents the hysterical winnings
of a few uncultured, prevaricat-
ing So-called liberals" He con-
tended that his fellow candi-
dates on the COP ticket repre-
sent broad background of edu-
cation in public, parochial and
private schools and "a multi
tude of colleges"
Republicans, he cOntended, are
anxious to maintain absolute
excellence" i'm the school system,
but he claimed they can do SO
while keeping real estate taxes
within reason" A more eau
tiOus study of the school pro-
grams and its costs, he charged,
have been "either ignored or by
passed" by the present County
Council.
Among major steps to assure
a more balanced and economic
school program, he suggested,
would be creation of a biparti-
san school construction board
of advisors made up of archi-
tects, engineers, educators and
builders. Existing school groups,
DR.. Wilson charged, are large
ly made up of far-out, so-called
liberal Democrats"

Foley VS.. Hathias

A "scoreboard on issues" has
been released by the Foley for
Congress Committee to cite the
position of John r. Foley, Dem
ocratic candidate for Congress,
in contrast to that of Rep.
Charles Matthias on a number of
political matters.
The purpose of the publica-
ton, Foley supporters said, Is to
give voters of the 9th Congress
sional District an opportunity to
determine whether they want to
be represented by "a Kennedy
Democrat or a conservative Re-
publican" The "scoreboard"
shows Foley favoring nine
measures supported by Presi-
dent Kennedy and opposed by
Matthias.
Among major issues listed are
federal aid to education, water
pollution control, area redevel-
Opment and medical care for the
aged, all favored by Foley and
opposed by Matthias.

debated timing" in its release
last week of a report giving
the results of tests taken in

earlier this year.
Il think that the parents of

to know earlier, not six weeks
before the election, the position
of their schools I'm relation to
other areas i'm which the same
tests were administered" he

HELP! FIRE :!

Fire, of an undetermined origin, broke out on the Dieringer property at Copper Center on Sunday, October 18th, shortly after 2:3O pm. Mrs Nels McCrary was the first to spot the blaze, which had gained a good headway in the prevailing high winds. The fire department of Glennallen was alerted; meanwhile local residents with the help of Gl ennallen quickly brought the fire under control. George Peterson arrived with the fire truck and Oscar Craig manned the hose, putting an end to the smeldering junk and cardboard. This fire could have been much more serious than it was, the winds were heading toward the homes and the store. When the dry grass caught, flames leaped in the air and jumped yards across the field. We, of Copper River Cash Store, and the McCrary' s, wi sh to thank all the people who helped so willingly: this includes Cliff Perrett, Ed Gurtler, Roy McCrary, Jim Russell, Tenas Jack, and Harry Johns. ....a and any others we may have missed in the excitement! Damage was confined to a few personal be- longings and old building materials stored by Dieringer on his property. fortunate wind shift saved a pile of creosoted tim ber5 and small uilding.

The Copper Center work project got under way Monday, the 18th of October, under foreman Rueben Oswald and general director George Goble. Approximately l5 men are now empl oyed in cutting logs which will be used in the building of our Comm unity Center and Firehall. The buildings are to be located just in back of the Brenden property at Mile lOl, on land donated tQ the community by Howard Bayliss. Donations from good neighbors to the north have helped the project under way. We are more than grateful for the help given by Tex Barnard, who donated his engineering skills: for the donation of a "cat" by Cecil Hayes of Little Mel china, and the trucking service provided by Irv Wotasiak of glennallen. Chain saws were donated by Sy Medley and Lucky" Wrisley. Good neighborS are not limited by boundaries we have learned
