Adams county election returns will begin coining into the Democrat office Tuesday evening and will be reported over the tape re* corder in cooperation with the Citizens Telephone company. The number to call is 3-1171. ■"—■O'- o The county surveyor's office is making progress in rebuilding ditches and drains in the county. Increased residential areas and closer attention to better farming practices have brought drainage problems to a head. Six ditches are now in the process of completion. V. J * . I. Your cooperation with city officials this week in cleaning up our city will make Decatur more beautiful. New houses, paint and nice yards don’t go well with dirty trash piles in the alleys. Getting rid of some of the junk we all have will reduce the fire hazards. This is the kind of a project in which everyone is a winner. » o o Adams County Soybean Queen for 1956, Miss Jacie Snyder, has been invited to appear over a television station and has made an appearance before the Decatur Rotary club since her selection. She is doing a fine job of promoting good will among the farmers and processors of soybeans in Adams county. o——o For the second time in a few days, the youth of the city has made a city-wide campaign for a civic program. This time the kids collected $l2O for the Decatur Community fund. You have to give the boys and girls a hand for pitching in when there’s work to be done. With such a start you can be sure Decatur is ready to turn out another great generation of men and women. —o—o A fine civic gesture was made by Boy Scouts of the city who hung reminders to vote on the door knobs of homes in the community. It not only reminded the adults of the necessity of being participating members of our democracy but brought to the attention of the boys that every one, young and old, is needed to make our government work.

Both parties made extreme efforts in the last few days to get people to the polls and more particularly vote for their candidates. A heavy vote is anticipated before the polls close tonight. —O .Q If you voted today you feel better tonight whether or not your favorite candidates are elected. You have done part of your share in making Democracy work. But don’t forget to get back of and support the winners for their term of office. We are all Americans whether Democrats or Republicans. o o Blizzards in the West remind us that we soon must say goodbye to a very pleasant fall and prepare for winter. Farmers here ■ report that the dry fall has been hard on the winter wheat but has enabled most of them to get their corn out of the fields. We keep wondering how the turkey flocks are flourishing. It’s hard to believe but some of our neighbors have completed their Christmas shopping. o——o It’s refreshing to know that some people read our editorials. Recently in noting progressive ac-» tions of •> Decatur merchants we stated that Robert Holthouse and Louis Jacobs had opened Holthouse on the Highway. It seems we omitted the name of the president and manager of the concern. Herb Banning. Congratulations, Herb. With improvements, expansion and new merchandise in stock in all of the community’s stores, Decatur is still the best place to shop. —o o— — The reappearance of Pete Reynold’s popular column “Basketbawl” in the Monday editions of this newspaper reminds us that that time is here again. Os interest to Decatur fans will be the showing of the Commodores under their new coach, Allison G. Lindahl, graduate of South Bend Central high school and St. Louis university. He succeeds Dave Terveer, who resigned after eight ...years to enter private employment. To all new coaches and players of the county we wish the best of luck and invite you to follow the games through our sports section.

SYNOPSIS Connie Barton’s suspicions were ■roused by her busband a clumsy excuse* for hi* regular Wednesday bight absences. She trailed Steve to ■ private dance studio and then realized he was taking'dance lessons as a pleasant surprise for her. Keeping herself unnoticed. Connie watched the * door of the studio till Steve left, and went in tor a private word with his teacher. ' She found the instructor. Anita Farrell, sprawled on the floor —shot-dead. In the corpse's hand was • paper silhouette of herself. Confused. Connie's first thought was to cover up for Steve. She grabbed the silhouette and the appointment book at the unattended reception desk outside and went home to confront Steve. She had to believe his assertions ol bis Innocence. Polk-e promptly got the names ot all Miss pupils and began checking to identify,the 7 p. m. Wednesday waltzer. When Lieut. Bollipg asked Steve his lesson time. Steve said 3 o’clock Saturday. From the stolen appointment book Steve took the lesson time ot a Ralph Tolley whom Bolling hasn't contacted—yet. Using the name Hester Frost, and with a plan in mind to save Steve. Connie got Miss Farrell's teaching job. Connie noticed a, ventilator in the celling of Studio K—the murder room—and set about exploring the possibility of the gunshot having come from there. While up on a catwalk over the false ceiling, she heard from the studio next to tiers a man ■nd a girl arguing whether he should chance going to "Rhinebeck Place." That is where the late Miss Farrell lived, at No. IL Connie phoned Steve •nd told him to meet her there. When she arrived she saw a young man hurry to Miss Farrell’s apartment. A polic* guard scared him away, but I not before Connie recognized his voice to be the one she overheard in the dance studio. Steve sends a cabble to pick up Connie: she speeds to the Feather Club, where Steve is watching a man he has trailed from Rhinebeck Place. They plan for Connie to meet him. CHAPTER 12 In a moment a gallant tenor voice was cooing at me. "May I join you?" Languidly, I said, "Must you ?” “It’s absolutely necessary." His teeth under his ghost mustache were gleaming at me. “Not only necessary, but Inevitable.” He established himself on the stool—next to mine. I looked toward the door for Steve and found that he was at the end of the bar. He was accepting a beer from the bartender. The man said, "Expecting someone?” • "Who, for instance?” “Your husband?’* “He’s in Milwaukee.” “Isn’t that nice of him?” I smiled at the man. “He’s a darling. Sometimes he doesn’t coms home for weeks and weeks.” 1 had the next bit of information ready; I was becoming •dept at this sort of thing. "My name’s Gloria.” “Hello, Gloria. Mine’s Wendell Kipp." "Hello, Wendell. Tell me about yourself.” Wendell was delighted by my interest. To show me how pleased he was he leaned his shoulder closer to mine. 11 glanced at i Steve in the mirror. He waa I

Couldn’t we, ’ though? Hmm, baby?” I I felt a thump and Steve was ■ sitting beside me. He put his face close to mine. “Hiya, ddll,” he breathed. He leered, and it made Mr. Kipp’s effort seem a ■ pale and sorry thing. "How about great big me buying cute little you a drink?” Wendell Kipp was on his feet “Look here, young fellow," he said.

"Not, me,” Steve said. “I’ve never been someplace before.” "Yes, your face is familiar. I think . . ." “Wendell,” I said, “you must be wrong . .." “I know!

On Wednesdays! 1 I've seen him coming in as I was leaving . , ” Mr. Kipp stepped bacjc. His voice shook with excitement “I saw him yesterday! He had the lesson after mine, be

Feel Russians To Give Aid To Arab Countries Russians Continue Demonstrations On British And French MOSCOW (UP) — More than 1,000 Russians tried to force their wav into the British and French embassies here today in the second day of demonstrations against Britain, France and Israel. The continuing demonstrations coincided with the growing belief by diplomats here the Soviet Union would offer Arab countries all out military and economic aid and permit a “substantial” number of Soviet citizens to volunteer for Middle East duty. Syrian President Shukri Al Kuwatly conferred here last week with government officials, Defense Minister Georgi Zhukov and other top generals. Observers said military aid to Syria emerging from those talks presumably would be trans-shipped to Egypt to replace losses suffered thus far by Egypt. The diplomats were inclined to give a literal interpretation to Premier Nikolai Bulganin’s words to British Prime Minister Anthony Eden Monday night that “we are fully determined to apply force to crush the aggressors and restore peace in the East.” The Soviet was expected to supply the Arab nations with enough arms to replace those destroyed in the Anglo - French bombings of Egypt, but doubted Russia would go so far as to participate in direct and unilateral military action. They believed a more likely be the flow of volunteers, arms, form of Soviet involvement would armaments and military advisers to the Arab countries. Observers were astonished at the stern language of Bulganin’s messages to Eden and French Premier Guy Mollet, unprecedented in relations between countries at peace with each other. The Soviet premier requested Eden “to show the proper reasonableness and draw his own appropriate conclusions. Bulganin’s messages to Eden and Mollet made two points: 1. A suggestion, however hypo-

Mr. Kipp i. staggered and collapsed on the floor. The bartender was cHmbe ing over the bar. A burly waiter ” was closing in on Steve. Everyone in the room was shouting now. “The Waltzer!" i Steve turned and headed for the door. 1 started after him, 3 screaming. "Stop him!" I yelled. "Stop him!* I tripped, arranging it so that I plowed headfirst into the waiter who almost had his • hands on Steve. We went down j together, and I saw Steve disappear through the door into the . night. The waiter helped me to nqr > feet. “Lady,* he said, "I almost had him. I would’ve had him except for you.* • “These darned high heels," I . said. > The bartender came back [ through the front door. i “Got away," he said. “Call the police," somebody said. •TH do that," the bartender ; said, ‘TH call the police.* A circle of curious, excited people were occupying Wenden Kipp. Nobody was paying any attention to me. I sidled to the door, got through it unnoticed, and walked quickly away from the Feather Chib. It was a good five minutes before I pulled myself together. 1 stopped looking aimlessly tn doorways, through the front windows of bars, for Steve. I tried to be rational. If 1 were the Waltzer oa the lam, what would I do ... no, I decided to put it another way. K I were my hueband and I knew that my wife would be worried to death about me, where, under those dncwndtances, would I got - Home. ‘ 1 It was probably as simple an that. I would give Steve thirty minutes to get home, then I would phone him there. I sat down on a bench in the little park off Sheridan Square. I lit a cigarette and calmed myself down. Then I realized 1 should not be sitting on this bench in the little park off Sheridan Square. It was twenty minutes to seven. At seven I had a lesson to teach at the Crescent School of Dancing.

thetical, of « possible rocket attack on England proportionately comparable to the Anglo-French attacks on Egypt. This sounded ominously like a threat. 2. Bulganin’s declaration that the Soviet government is fully determined'to use force, presumably within the United Nations,, to crush aggressors and re-establish peace In the Middle East. Bulganin's statements went considerably beyond the remarks of Communist Party chief Nikita Khrushchev a few weeks ago that a war over Suez would be “a holy and just war*’ that would draw volunteers from many countries. There was no indication here that Soviet citizens were already volunteering, but tension was mounting and anti-British, antiFrench and anti-Israeli demonstrations continued.
