College football gets down to brass tacks this week, with most of the larger colleges having had their warm-up games. It still looks like Oklahoma, Michigian State and Minnesota could hold their own in any company. -—o— —o It soon wiii be leaf-raking time. Remember it is a violation of a city ordinance to burn your leaves on an asphalt street. It damages texture of the street and requires a lot of money to repair. ” ——o o Decatur is extremely fortunate in that it does not have a segregation problem. We probably can take a different attitude since we are not faced with the problem. It must be recognized as a major national problem until solved satisfactorily. ——o o Construction work on the sewage treatment plant is going along as scheduled and Yost Construction Co. should easily meet the year deadline on completion. Yost has an enviable record in the industrial building field and almost always meets the deadline with days to spare. •—o o>— Weather forecasters believe this pleasant weather will continue for several days and in general the weather will be fair in the midwest part of the nation. We'll take all of this kind of weather on the menu and get in some late yard work and get our flower-beds and gardens ready for winter. o o ' A lot of people in this area believed that they saw the Russian satellite 5 in the western skies , Tuesday night. There was a red | particle in the air visible for quite | a lengthy period of time. Decatur ; has ito devices which would verify the fact but there was an object of quite some size in the sky. It probably always will remain a . mystery. o o ■ The furore created during the Teamsters convention has died down somewhat, but the investigation of gangster domination in that huge union is continuing. Eventually the probe,will weaken the Union to such an extent that a new organization will take over. How long that will take depends on what happens to the new president. James Hoffa still faces arrests and indictments and it appears that the government will continue to dog him until he eith-

er quits or is forced out of power. o o Don Dickie. Wells county and former auto license examiner for Indiana has announced the opening of a drivers’ training school in Decatur. The Wells county man, is well qualified for this job and he no doubt will recruit a large class. Mr. Dickie also has announced plans for a school to qualify older drivers . prior to their taking of the drivers examination which is now required of all Indiana citizens as their licenses expire. It might be a good idea for all of us to enroll. o o It probably will be several days yet before a jury is selected to sit in the land graft cases. Both sides are moving cautiously. We, the people should, of course be interested in the outcome of the cases but shouldn’t we also.be vitally interested in creating new statutes which would forever prevent such recurrence of these high crimes? The sickly thing is that the real culprits are basking in the Florida sunshine with their ill-gotten gains and the less lights are forced to remain here and take the raps. —-o A discouraging note appeared in press dispatches this week Chrysler Motor Co. announced that it would close two Evansville plants and would move to another state. The displeasing sign is that Indiana with its high taxes and political graft disclosures might lose more industry. What has Indiana to* offer as possible factory sites, except a central location. Our state and county taxes are high. Our utility rates are high. Our potential source of labor is not good and all of these things tend to cause industry to seek other, locations. The present administration apparently is satisfied to continue decrying federal aid for schools and public construction and does little to lure new industry to the greatest state in the Union. Our public relations and industrial location department is politics-ridden and bears the odor of merely creating jobs for political hacks. Let’s hope that the removal of plants like Chrysler will awaken a sense of responsibility in the minds and hearts of our state officials, so there will be no wholesale closing down of Indiana factories. With our "going crazy" on taxation, we could Well become a ghost-state.

In the same way as the usual invitation, in the name of her parents or nearest relatives, as, “Mr. and Mrs. William J. Fenton request the honour of your presence at the marriage of their daughter, Mary Fenton Smith, to, etc.” You will note, of course, that the full name of the bride is used. Q. When a dinner guest in a home is offered a dish that he dislikes, isn’t he privileged to say, “No, thank you"? A. Although this may be his privilege, he will exhibit much better manners if- he takes a small portion and at least make a pretense of eating it. Q. If a man who is calling on a girl brings her a gift, should she open it immediately, or may she lay it aside until he has gone? A. She would certainly show beti ’ - •"■"T’*

"1 want to hear the old mastermind's version of this run-around.” 1 said, "Drury Wells and his wife lived in Banning before they moved out to Frostmore Road." "So what?" he asked. 1 said. "1 went out to Banning and talked with the neighbors. The neighbor who lives next door on the side of the Dedroom in the nouse where Wells was living, had something to tell me.'* "What?” "The sound of an altercation, the sound ot a blow, silence. Wells carrying something on ms shoulder, putting it in the automobile. going out, coming oack about three hours later, going to bed. Next day no sign of his wife. She was visiting folks." Sellers stood there thinking it over. After a while ne said. “What is this—a rubber stamp? Why do they play the same rocord over and over?" 1 said, “Want to have another talk with the redhead' you met out at Frostmore Road?" He nodded. 1 went down the corridor and brought Wanda Warren to the office. She looked at Bertha Cool, at Frank Sellera, at me. "Let me hit the highlights," 1 said. "The highlights nothing,” Sellers said. "1 want her story." "Nuts to you, Frank," 1 told him. "We’re working on a twen-. ty-four-hour limit We've got to crack this case within twentyfour hours or we lose two thousand bucks. You listen to me and then you go to work with your questions." 1 didn't wait for him to give me permission but went ahead and started outlining the highlights of the case, starting with the time Coming came to the office, winding up with Coming’s last visit, and showing Frank Sellers the agreement Coming had signed.

Also form the habit of drinking ten or twelve glasses of water throughout the day. This will carry off poisons that otherwise mar the complex-, ion. Water that is cool, but not ice water, is the best. Old Gloves A pair of discarded kid gloves worn when paring potatoes, or working with other vegetables, will prevent stains on the fingers and hands. Stringing Beads When stringing beads, try dippling the needle in water frequently. The beads will slip on more easily and will also cling together.

Benson Objects To Higher Milk Props Artificially High Supports Opposed ROCHESTER, N. Y. (UP) — Agriculture Secretary Ezra Taft Benson told dairy farmers today they will seriously damage their long-run markets if they insist on "artificially high” prices. “We cannot build markets by pricing ourselves out of them,” Benson said in a speech prepared for delivery to the 50th anniversary meeting of the Dairymen's League Cooperative Assn. Benson said the dairy outlook is “much brighter in several ways than it was just a few years ago.” Surpluses have been reduced and "prices for butterfat and milk have gradually improved over the past two years,” he said. But dairy production is likely to continue at high levels, the administration farm chief added, "and with such abundance we should not expect to price products as if they were scarce.” Benson said farmers need protection from the "harsh price effects which otherwise would result from their exposed economic position.” But he said “artificially high” prices or government price supports would lead, to more surplus production and loss of consumer markets. Some midwestern legislators recently have been pressing for an increase in federal price supports for milk. Benson's speech to the New York dairy group here appeared to outline his objections tq higher milk props. “Dairy products, like other farm products must be competitiveprice - wise, quality - wise and promotion-wise,” he said. In the long run, Benson added, dairy prosperity must be built on lowered production costs and giving consumers high - quality products. In another speech prepared for delivery to the convention, a national cooperative official urged the dairymen to spend more money on farmer-owned marketing facilities. " Homer L. Brinkley, executive vice president of the National Council of Farmers Cooperatives, said such spending would make farmers “less vulnerable to economic pressure.” He said this could have been done earlier had farmers spent on such marketing facilities “a reasonable portion” of the $lO-billion they paid for equipment during the past 10 years.

Those are congested districts.’’ "Sure," 1 told him. “Well, what were you talking about? That was your idea, wasn't It?" 1 shook my head. "That was your idea." “Okay, what’s yours?" 1 said, “When the newspaperman called. Wells knew someone was B oin ß 10 questions about his wife. Later on ne thought someone would ask more questions. if they asked questions at Running, they’d find out there’d been a fight, a blow, he'd gone out, been gone about two hours and forty-five minutes, then returned and after that there was no more wife. So be went down to Frosunore Road, and —” “Hell’s bells! 1 get it!" Sellers interrupted, suddenly excited. “1 think you've got something!" I “1 think 1 nave. Otherwise, 1 i wouldn't nave phoned you." “Got any ideas?" 1 nodded. "What do we need?" he asked. "Flashlight and shovel," A i said.

You try to pitch me a curve and I’ll be the toughest, nastiest guy you ever tried to do business with. “Come on, pint-size, let’s go!" The hunt for a corpse begins. Whose? Where?
