for a year getting their mounts ready for the test, and they will start immediately to rebuild and plan for 1958- It was a great day too for the almost two hundred thousand race fans from all over the world who visited the Indianapolis speedway to witness the spectacle. in* O n*Qi-f Two hundred Decatur citizen* and there should have been two thousand, got a lasting thrill last Thursday morning as the Memorial Day observance, sponsored by the joint efforts of the Veterans of Foreign Wars and American Legion was conducted at th* Peace Monument on the Court House square. Those people who attended heard one of the finest messages relating to our war hero**, dead and alive, ever delivered in Decatur. Rev. Virgil Sexton, pastor of the Decatur Methodist church was the principal speaker. Our thoughts moved back to th* return of soldiers from World War I and World War II and the Korean conflict. Nothing was too good for our returning heroes. This year only a few attended the public services commemorating their deeds and paying a moment of tribute to those who have died. Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts who usually march in the Memorial Day parade, were absent. V.F.W. members and Legionnaires have not forgotten and they made up most of the attendance. We are glad that the two service organizations have the foresight and ability to carry on one of our’richest “traditions and it is our hope that several thuosaM Decatar bNmms will join in the observance next year and all the years to follow.

They could be honeymooners. 3ut I noticed when 1 got out Julia’s bags that her things were narked with different initials Irom his.” That was enough for MoChronster. In rising panic, he was on Us feet. “Got to stop those pictures.” ho said in a choked voice 13 he ran out of the dining room. Within five minutes he came back, even more wild-eyed than when he left "Papera wouldn’t isten to me," he told Grady •xcitedly. "Actually laughed when I reminded 'em I was prosecuting attorney.” “1 suppose news is news,’’ said Grady quietly. "Yeah, but this kind ... What we goin’ to do. Doc ? We’ll be the laughing stock of the county.” “I don’t see that we can do uiythtng," Grady began. "Well, 1 sure will try!" Mo went to the head table and asked Reynolds and Julia if they would please step into the lobby for a minute Thinking this part of the itunt. they agreed, Julia taking ner coffee cup with her and laughing as she walked the length at the long room. With the door firmly closed upon them, Mo turned to face the isjksinbled Lions and Lionesses. Before thia, Grady Barton had noticed that Mo Chronister’s face :ould look much the same whether he laughed with humor or jrinned with malicious intent. In both cases, his lips drew back from his strong white teeth, hie sheeks were furrowed deeply with tines which bracketed that smiling mouth and his blue eyes shone. “Gentlemen,” he said solemnly, “we’re In trouble." A stir of interest, and questionroom. . - Mo nodded portentously. "Just luck we didn’t run into trouble the two years before when you pulled this trick. Tonight, looks like we’ve had It. And I just hope that we can hush the thing up, get those two out of town without . . . Why, a little precaution, Barton, like getting the patrol to check would have avoided all this embarrassment!" Grady sat quietly, his face immobile, his fingers turning the stem of his water glass. "What’s happened 7” asked a dozen voices at once. "What's wrong Mo undertook to answer. "You got any proof those two are man and wife? You got any proof the name’s even Reynolds ? I tell you, • J the committee should* been more

Indianapolis Infant Dies Os Meningitis INDIANAPOLIS — (IP) — T*b-month-qjd Terre’ Reidy died of spinal meningitis Friday, only a few hour* after he became ill. The boy’s parents, a sister and six neighbors were advised to take sulfa treatment to prevent spread of the infection. Advisory Council Members Named ... SOUTH BEND — W — The Rev. Theodore Hesburgh, president of Notre Dame. Friday announced that five businessmen have been appointed to the advisory council for the college of commerce at the university. They include: William H. Coleman, Cleveland. Ohio; Robert fl. Gore Jr.. Fort Uiuderdale, Fla.; James M. Morrison, Hammond; Richard A. O’Connor, Fort Wayne; and Hugh M. O’Neil. Cleveland. The University of North Dakota, which celebrates its 75th birthday this year, was established by the Dakota Territory legislature.

earerui. xes, ano me president should appoint tala committees more carefully. Crazy business, just bringin’ anyone in here, without some kind of check. “Tourist court romances—could be criminals on the lam for all we know—certainly this couple isn’t what we’d like td think they are, and I move here and now that Dr. Barton go out and tell ’em we made a mistake —tel) ’em anything, just so we get rid of ’em .. Grady stood up, but It was Norvell Lee who said, "You tell ’em, Mo. You were the one to take the Reynolds over from the patrol; you accepted them, you made them welcome Yes, and you introduced them to the president as the chosen guests.” He turned to that president "Am I right?’’ He was right The club knew Mo. The club was unanimous in thinking that he should be the ons to straighten out this matter 1 . As all this developed, Grady had been dropping short comments into June’s ear. Now he said, "A simple question would do it" ' She laughed and pressed his arm. Well ... Mo finally agreed, he guessed he could go out and . . . "Bring them in here," called Norvell Lee. "When you get through with them, we probably will owe them some sort of an apology.” <r So a somewhat puzzled Julia and Fred were admitted to the dining room, and a red-faced, angry - seeming Mo Chronister made a clumsy attempt at an explanation and apology for the Lions Club. He had. he said, no wish to embarrass Julia and Fred —if the whole thing rested on him, as a private individual, he’d let 'em stay and be entertained, whatever their status. tionaherganlzation with a reputation to uphold . . . The whole trouble began with the committee, he said, their plans had not been well made, and they'd managed to foul the whole thing up. Os course the element of surprise was important, but they should have asked for some sort of identification. They hadn’t, and now, well, he only hoped the Reynoldses understood? And no otfense? Fred Reynolds looked more and more bewildered. "As well he might," murmured Grady to June when she noted this. It was Julia who took over their reply, stepping one hand tugging at her earring, the other reaching back for Fred's band. "I don't conaulctely under-

stand what your trousie W, Mr. Chronister,” ahe said with dignity. "It'a pretty clear though that there's been some mistake about choosing ua, and of course we’re sorry. We liked getting into this party because, you see, we had only this week-end so: our honeymoon, and we don’t have any money. We were trying to keep where we were « secret, but we couldn't go fai enough to be safe. "You see, Fred is a universitj professor—associate —and I’m s student. A senior. And the student body—well, we tried to keef our trip a secret from their ides of a joke. It bhgan to look as il your stunt were going to give ui a memorable honeymoon, but — well—as I say, we're sorry about whatever mistake there has been.” She released Fred's hand, and unpinned the orchid, regretfully held it toward the stunned and befuddled Mo. His lips moved, but no sound dame. June and Grady, Norvell and Ruth Imd Virginia smiled, and then began to laugh. Finally Mo's voice came, though in a strange squeak. "You’re married t” "Os course we’re married!” shouted Fred, beginning not to like all this horseplay. “At nine o’clock this morning. And in a church!" "That’s what you wanted, wasn’t it?" asked Julia sweetly. "A married couple?" "Yes," agreed the dazed Mo Chronister. "Guess you’re everything we wanted. Only . . ." Deciding that he still mighi find a whipping boy, he flashed around on Grady. "Doc, you told me . . .• " His words were lost in s mighty roar of laughter. The whole club was laughing, loudly, boominglyroontinuourty-. DOC had framed Mo, and good! This was going to be a very big evening. It was, too. With Julia telling how careful they-had been not to look like newlyweds. “We stopped at the first filling station and I changed out of my pretty suit, sacrificed my flowers . .." But big evening though it was, and one long to be remembered. Mo was not soon going to forgive the man responsible for all this' laughter at his expense. Grady knew that he’d done nothing U assure Mo’s friendliness. The man was not the sort to accept this sort of beating. Monday: Chronister becomes an ally of Grady’s Na 1 enemy.
