At the climax of the program, a king and queen will be chosen to reign over the 49th* reunion and also the golden Magleyrama to be presented next year for the 50th anniversary of the Magley family reunion. The reunion is one of the oldest and most popular events of its kind, and every year people travel from as far away as Florida to attend. The first reunion was started memoriling the coming of the Magleys from Switzerland. Each year an invitation is extended to the poular baseball player, Sal Maglie to come, but as yet Maglie’s schedule has conflicted with the reunion date.

Racket Committee Probe Bears Fruit Recommend Ouster Os Hoffa's Buddy WASHINGTON <UPII—The Senate Rackets Committee ended its second week of inquiry into affairs of Teamster boss James R. Hoffa with a sigh its labors were bearing fruit. Court-appointed monitors for the Teamsters Union late Friday recommended proceedings which could lead to ouster of Owen (Bert) Brennan, Teamster vice president and Hoffa’s close buddy. The monitors’ action brought praise from members of the committee, which developed testimony that led up to the recommendation. A “Good Sign” Chairman John L. McClellan <D-Ark.) said the monitors should “move to the limit of their power in areas where the committee's investigation has revealed corruption and wrong-doing.’’ Another committee m ember, Sen. Karl E. Mundt (R-S.D.), said the action was “a good sign the monitors mean business.” The monitors by a 2-1 vote urged thgt Brerihah be charged by the union with misuse of funds and engaging in activities which bring the 1,500,000-member organization into disrepute? The monitors fixed a 10-day deadline for the union to comply with their recommendations. They presumably could ask a federal judge for a court order to enforce the- proposals if the union balked. Boxer Enters Picture At issue was the payment of $75 a week for two years from Teamster welfare funds to Embrel Davidson, a former Detroit heavyweight boxer once managed by Brennan. Davidson told the committee in the first week of its renewed investigation of the Teamsters that he never did any work for the welfare fund in his job classification of “claims investigator.” Instead, he testified, he worked around Brennan’s farm and helped haul feed for the Detroit Teamster’s trotting horses. Brennan took the sth Amendment in refusing to answer questions concerning his relations with the boxer. The committee ended its second week or inquiry with more issues than ever suspended in mid-air and the tempers of both investigators and witnesses thoroughly frayed. Trade in a good town — Decatw
