WANE Transmits From Fort Wayne New TV Tower Is Put To Use Today WANE-TV, channel 15, began transmitting from its new tower located at 2915 West State Blvd., in Fort Wayne, this morning. The new 836 foot tower and its centralized location will enable WANE-TV to serve Fort Wayne and its coverage area with a clearer, sharper picture. To all points south of Fort Wayne, reception will be perfected, and reception to the north and east will remain good. WANE-TV will operate on the highest power, tallest tower, and the lowest frequency within a 100 mile radius of Fort Wayne. These three factors contribute to outstanding television coverage.

Three Cities Given Warning By Handley Cities Ordered To Pay Off State Loan INDIANAPOLIS (UP) — Governor Handley warned Gary. Michigan City and West Lafayette late Wednesday to pay off their state loans or have funds cut off. Handley was told during a meeting of the State Finance Board that those three cities were still delinquent in repaying a total of $68,205 in loans from the Post-War Planning Revolving Fund. The fund makes loans for planning civic improvements, like sewer projects. If the loans aren’t repaid soon, Handley told the other board members — State Auditor Roy Combs and Treasurer Adolph L. Fossler '—to “just let them know we’re going to take it back.” The auditor is authorized to withhold a city's distribution of various tax funds to cover the ( amount owed if payment is not made. Combs’ predecessor, Curtis Rardin, regained a delinquent loan from Terre Haute by withholding the amount from a distribution, j The board also approved $82,120 worth of new loans for projects in four cities — New Albany <40,000, Paoli $36,000, Yorktown $6,000 and Marengo S9OO. That left $3,220 in the fund. Marengo’s loan was for a waterworks project, the others for sewer planning. Records in Combs’ office showed the Michigan City and Gary loans have been delinquent since 1951. The West Lafayette loan was due in 1955. Deputy State Treasurer Charles Bryant said Gary apparently “ignored'' appeals for payment, Michigan City is “in the process" of repaying, and West Lafayette seems to have taken no concrete steps to repay. WILSON (Continued from Page One) Wilson made one exception, telling Marine Corps it could delay 8.000 of its reductions until “early in fiscal 1959." If you have something to sen or rooms for rent try a Democrat Want Ad, it brings results.

Successful Vaccine Against Cold Virus Scientist Reports Successful Vaccine BALTIMORE, Md. (UP) — A Johns Hopkins scientist reported today that he had developed the first successful vaccine against a virus causing common colds. The virus caused 30 per cent of the common colds that came to the attention of the developer, DrWsinton H. Price, in investigations made over a two year period, he said. Price, director of the division jof medical ecology at the Johns Hopkins School of Hygiene and Public Health, reported that in controlled tests on more than 400 persons the vaccine- prevented colds caused by the JH (named after Johns Hopkins) virus in 80 per cent of the cases. An unknown number of viruses are responsible for the common cold and it is not expected that Price’s vaccine will work against all of therp- However, the vaccine is the first break through against the common cold and opens the possibility of producing other cold vaccines. The new vaccine developed by Price is made from the killed JH virus and was reported to have produced no symptoms, discomforts or other effects in the persons who received it in the testsTests of the vaccine were conducted with boys in training schools which cooperated in the studies during an epidemic which occurred normally. The third world-wide cooperative attack on the earth’s enigmas since 1883, is being made in the current International Geophysical i Year.

Jobless Pay Claims Increase In Slate Claims Npar 4,000 Higher In Indiana JNDIANAPOLIS (UP)-The total number of unemployment insurance claims filed with the Indiana Employment Security Division last week was nearly 4,000 higher than the number reported the previous week, the division said today. William C. Stalnaker, division director, said 35,999 persons filed claims last week compared to 32,031 the previous week. Included in the total were 9,539 claims from newly-unemployed workers. Twelve of the division's 30 Offices reported increases in claims from newly-unemployed persons, but rises were minor except in Connersville, Evansville, Fort Wayne and Indianapolis. Many of the layoffs were’ due to model change and inventory, reduction of inventory and slowing of production The total number of claims was well below the comparable week last year when 40,471 persons registered for unemployment insurance. Stalnaker said at mid-August, 4.300 more Hoosiers were working than on July 15 and the average worker's weekly paycheck of $91.43 was $1.46 higher. Employer estimates showed 1.410,600 persons on nonfarm jobs at the middle of last month The new gains were credited to seasonal influences, new orders, settlement of labor disputes and the return of vacationing employees.. Employment in the durable manufacturing industries rose slightly, as did the number of workers in the electrical machinery field. Gains also were recorded in furniture manufacturing and the stone-clay-glass industry. Nearly all nondurable goods industries had more employees last month than on July 15. Canning factories were beginning to need help for the annual food pack but the delayed tomato harvest kept employment well below the August 1956 level.
