MRB. J. CLARK MACYLIN explains how the General Electric dishwasher works, to visitors at the open house held here last week-end. Watching Mrs. Mayclin are (left to right): Charles Slater, head of the personnel department of Fort Wayne General Electric: Lisle Hodell general manager of all small motors plants of General Electric; John Welch, Decatur plants manager, and John R. Worthman, developer of Stratton Place, where the Mayclin G. E. model home has been constructed. The Fort Wayne visitors inspected both the Macylin home and the home built for resale by Anthony Faurote, the latter of which also features a General Electric kitchen.

members also won honors in the competition. The choir also sang a dozen concerts in Belgium, Holland, Germany, and France. The members praised the Europeans as good hosts. Choir president John H. Lewis of Columbus said: “The people were wnderful and very friendly, especially in Germany. They’re not much different than us, except perhaps they have less money and live less hurriedly.” Beverly Bailey of Lima told how the chorus was mobbed in Ludwigshaven, Germany, a city which is

supposedly “anti American.” Beverly said an overflow crowd jammed into a second theater to hear the program on a loudspeaker. “after we got back to the dressing room,” she added. The people stamped their feet and clapped in order to call us back. Some gave us flowers and quite a number waited at the doors to greet us as we left the theatre.” Don Marler of Dayton found out on the 10,000 mile trip that the best time to ‘slip an engagement ring on your girl’s finger is during a moonlight cruise. Don and Sally Futton of Washington, D. C., ano-

ther choir member, were betrothed on the deck of the S. S. Seven Seas, enroute to France. The trip was pronounced a total success despite the fact that at frequent intervals students had ways of becoming lost, sea siok, or low on money. . Choir prexy Don Lewis, who coasted into Columbus with only 56 cents remaining, remarked offhandedly: / “The porters on our ship really had to fight for tips.” Downward Trend For Hog Prices Decrease Is Seen By Purdue Experts LAFAYETTE. Ind. (INS) — Purdue agricultural economists said today that hog prices are expected to work irregularly downward the rest of 1955 and fluctuate between sl3 and sl6 from December through May. -Economists J. Carroll Bottum and John O. Dunbar concluded that topping out market hogs during August and September as soon as they are large enough to command top prices will be advantageous. They said the downward trend in hog prices is caused by a nine per cent increase in the spring pig crop and an increase in early farrowing. The 1955 pattern of spring farrowing probably will center the heaviest marketing around the December period but whether this is the period of lowest prices will depend partially on the period when packers choose to store. Bottum and Dunbar pointed out that an indicated increase in Indiana of eight per cent in fall farrowing appears likely to result in larger Indiana hog marketings during the winter and spring of 1956. The United States increase is 11 percent in fall farrowing. They predicted that either higher prices for feed or reduced consumer demand for meat could cause liquidation and distress in the hog business and even lower prices as indicated. However, they said an unexpected increase in exports could boost prices. And they added with feed supply plentiful, feed prices likely will average lower than last year causing feeding ratios to be below average. And the men warned that individual producers should avoid expanding their hog production beyond levels of greatest efficiency. Local Minister At Payne Camp Meeting The Rev. W. H. Kirkpatrick, pastor of the Church of God, Is spending several days at the Payne, O„ camp meeting this week, where he is serving as chairman of the program committee. He also spoke at the Tuesday afternoon service. The local congregation will dismiss its prayer service tonight so that members may attend the camp meeting. The mixed quartet from the local church, composed of Ken and Bonnie Watkins, Norma Aglqr and Pauline Roop will sing tonight. AIR SECRETARY (Continued from Page One) Mr. Eisenhower said the question in the Talbott case is whether the office was violated or whether a man in office used his personal influence in away divorced from his official duties. He pointed out that no one has madb any Intimation or suggestion or fraud or wrongdoing on Talbott’s part. This is clearly out of the question, he said.

Nudists Are Wed In Chilly Breeze Couple Clad Only In Goose Pimples DENVER (INS) —Two Texas nudists, clad only in goose pimples, were married near Denver Tuesday night in a chilly mountain breeze. They are 60-year-old Col. Herbert Lindle and ♦S-year-old Mrs. Louise West, both of San Antonio. An. interested spectator was New York building tycoon William Zeekendorf, who had just returned from the Cheyenne frontier days festivals and wore a cowboy outfit complete with sheriff’s badge. Apparently the couple had not counted on Colorado's changeable weather.: ~ After a comfortably warm day, a wind from the snowy mountain peaks descended on the Colorado Sunshine Club ceremony. The bride endured the icebox blast until the wedding was over, then sadi “that's enough. freezing." She slipped on a house coat and scurried into the club house for the reception. Zeckendorf’s comment was: "I’m like the kid when he saw the giraffe. If I hadn't seen it, I wouldn’t believe it.” If you nave omechlng to sen or rooms for rent, try a Democrat Want Ad. brings results.
