Report Jerry Miller Slowly Recovering Mrs. Vivian Miller, of 158% South Second street, has reported that her son, Jerry, who was injured in a car-motorcycle wreck several months ago is much improved and is now able to walk with crutches. Jerry was seriously injured in the accident which occurred on a camp base in Virginia where he was stationed with armed forces. Among x his many injuries, the former Decatur high school student suffered a crushed hip and a deep wound to his stomach. He lost considerable weight, Mrs. Miller reports, but has regained his appetite slightly. The injured youth’s mother also stated that Jerry has received many gifts and cards too numerous to mention. The thanks of the family are extended to all who did so much to help Jerry recover. Mrs. Miller said that after he has completed therapy treatments at the hospital, he may be permitted to come home for convalescence. The end of this summer is the time set by the doctors. _

Urges Mail Users To Adopt New Plan Postmaster Leo Kir sc h is anxious that all Daily Democrat readers obtain maximum benefit from the post office department’s new metro plan, a program designed to expedite delivery of mail. “Theoretically, the plan is excellent,” he said, "but in practice it will be good as users of the mails choose to make it.” rDnder the metro plan, which postmaster general Summerfield has called “the most significant improvement in mail service yet made,” letter mail deposited most anywhere within a particular metropolitan area before 5 p.m. on a business day will be delivered to any point within that area the next delivery day. By June 30, eightyfive million citizens, more than half of the population of the United States, living in 45 metropolitan areas will receive next-day delivery service for first-class letter mail. And by July, 1961, one hundred twenty-five million people living in 5 metropolitan areas are scheduled to receive next-day delivery service. Kirsch points out that in the past mail transportation has been adapted to existing train, truck, and airplane schedules. Sometimes this meant good, and sometimes not good enough mail service. Now this poor-relative concept of msil transportatin is changed. Instead of going along when the ride is ready, the ride will now be really when the mail needs to be moved, “Like most other important Innovations, the metro plan is basically simple,” the postmaster said. “It contemplates collection of mail between 5 and 11 p.m. from various offices within the metropolitan area and return of other mail to those offices between 1 and 7 a.m. Most of the mail so collected is Worked at a designated office at the core of the metropolitan area between 11 p.m. and 1 a.m. “Experience in the area already organized indicates 95 to 98% success,” he added. “Virtually 100% success could be realized if all
mail were properly prepared at the time of deposit. It makes little difference how good transportation is if addresses are not clear, correct and complete.” ' “If you have any questions about how to get the most for your money from the postal service, call 3-3205," he concluded. No Early Recovery Seen For Gov. Long . GALVESTON. Tex. (UPD— Dr. Titus Harris said Wednesday night Gov. Earl Long of Louisiana will recover from his mental illness in time, but branded as j’absurd” reports he could recover in three months. I Hajris, a prominent psychiatrist, has charge of Long’s case at John Sealy Hospital. He said the governor has started "cooperating reluctantly” with efforts to treat his mental condition, but Long “still doesn’t think he is sick.” Probate Judge Hugh Gibson was expected to set a date today for a hearing on whether the Louisiana chief executive should be ordered by Texas courts to undergo 90 days of mental treatment. He said the hearing would probably be set for June 15 or 16. Gibson signed an order Tuesday committing the governor to the hospital for 14 days of mental treatment ait the request of Long’s family. The order said Long was “dangerous’’ to himself and others. Lt. Gov. Lether Frazar. acting governor while Long' Is absent, said in Baton Rouge he was misquoted earlier in a story saying there was a possibility Long might not be able to complete the remaining 10 months of his term. Afetr a conference with Mrs. Lcmg, who returned to Baton Rouge from Galveston, Frazar said: I “I am elated over the encouraging report from Galveston on the governor's progress and it is my most earnest hope that he will soon be able to return to Baton Rouge and again assume the responsibilities of his office.”

The winter semester consists of the following: German grammer. four hours; phonetics, one hour; German literature in the 19th century, three hours; German history, (1871-1945). two hours; and today in Germany, two-hours.
