County primary candidates are in the "home stretch” now with just a week of campaigning left. Several important offices are at stake, including the commissioners' nominations in two districts, and the county assessor’s spot. Look over the candidates in the next week, and make up your mind. Pick men who will be able to do a good job if elected. p o As the summer season arrives, with its night baseball and swimming programs, keeping children out until dark, it is a good idea to check your child’s bicycle. Every bike should be equipped with a headlight and a reflector. It may well save your child’s life. That is something that no amount of after-thought will be able to do. Don’t ever forget it! 0 O ; Circus Days! How we used to look forward to a visit from a traveling circus, with its menagerie of wild animals, saw dust rings, clowns, and trapeze artists. The familiar old three-ring tent will visit Decatur June 7. Tickets for the show will go on sale by Chamber of Commerce retail members early in May. Buy your tickets for yourself and your family in advance—most of this money will, stay in Decatur to help promote better business and better living for all of us. o o The Decatur water department is systematically checking all of the pipe valves, and replacing ~ the worn ones. At the present time, if a pipe in any part of the city bursts, the entire city must go without water while it is being repaired. City engineer Ralph Roop has mapped out a system of valved lines ‘which when completed will allow the city to be divided into districts. If trouble occurs in one district, it can be corrected without disturbing service in the others. This will be a special boon, not only to housewives, but to workers at the G.E. and Central Soya, where work might have to shut down during line repairs.

— ■ Mar. w w Youthful Gangster Confesses Slaying Admits Killing Os Young Gang Rival NEW YORK an — A snarling 20-y ear-old gang leader Sunday night admitted the shotgun slaying of a teen-age gang rival who gave him “a dirty look." Five detectives, acting on a girl freind’s tip. seized and disarmed Ramon Serra about 17 hours after the slaying of 17-year-old Michael Ramos, a gang organizer \i>ho served as a prosecution witness in the recent mass juvenile Michael Farmer murder trial. Bronx District Attorney Daniel V. Sullivan said he would ask a grand jury to indict Serra for first degree murder. Conviction could mean death in the electric chair. Police quoted Serra as saying. “I’m sorry I shot him. I didn't mean to pull the trigger. My finger just tightened. I only wanted to cock the gun.” Police said Sewa was captured after being lured to a rendezvous by 14-year-old Alice Bayron. They said he was seized while trying to draw a fully-loaded Italian-make automatic pistol. He later signed a full confession, according to police. At first, police thought the shooting might have been in retaliation for Ramos' testimony at the Farmer murder trial. Four of the seven defendants were convicted. However, they said the shotgun slaying stemmed from the shooting of a 17-year-old member of Serra’s gang by a teen-age gang ally of Ramos 14 days ago.
