Robert W. Cook and Lee F. McBride, who are employed by the C. W. Fuelling Co., Inc., of 125 Grant street in Decatur, have been awarded a Walton Clark medal by the Franklin Institute of Philadelphia, Pa. The medal was awarded to the two Decatur men on a recommendation of the science and arts committee of the institute. After the committee recommended the two, the board members unanimously voted to award the medal to the men. The medal was a warded for “contribution to public welfare and safety by the development of a successful leak-sealing system tor gas mains.” Mcßride and Cook developed an electronic mechanism for sealing the joint of a gas main. For this invention they were chosen tor this award and the two will be given a dinner along with Winners of other medals given by the institute, Tuesday, October 18. The dinner will precede the medal day exercises which will be held Wednesday. Mcßride and Cook were picked for this honor after the committee scoured the World for a recipient. • Sfeeir inventich; *Wil& W cairro the Fuelling method, was first put to work in 1953 end since that time it has been used in the largest cities in the nation. At the June 15 meeting of the institute Mcßride and Cook received the recognition of which they are well deserving. • — At the time the Franklin Institute was founded, one of its primary objectives was the recognition and encouragement of scientific inventions. To carry out this objective, the “Committee on Inventions” was formed in 1824, and under its auspices, the first trade exhibition in the histor yof the country was held in 1834, in the confident belief that the new United States "... may compete with foreigners in the manufacture of all useful artidesi.” In 1834 the committee became the present "Committee on science and arts.” Science knows no national boundaries. Benjamin Franklin believed that all truly scientific exchanges should be free and open. The Franklin Institute perpetrates this belief and hopes for a still closer exchange of useful knowledge between nations which may help to bring better understanding and peace among nations.

Base New TV Show On Roaring 20's By VERNON SCOTT UP! Holly wood. Correspondent HOLLYWOOD (UPD-Success of “The Untouchables" has inspired another television show based on the roaring 20s. In fact, that’s the title—“ The Roaring 205.” Why the 20s roared more than any other dgpade not been determined. But unlike "The Untouchables,” which roars with gunfire, the new one roars with sex. Providing the sex appeal is Dorothy Provine, who formerly starred in the now defunct “The Alaskans" series. “My role is every actresses dream come true,” she said between takes at Warner Brothers studios. “I sing, dance and wear the most fabulous wardrobe you’ve ever seen. “All my dresses are beaded, spangled and tassled. One gown cost 81,800 for a single dance sequence.” flapper in a New York speakeasy when bootleg liquor and gangsters were in style. Co-starring with Dorothy are Donald May and Rex Reason who play a pair of daring newspaper reporters. Dorothy fired up a cigarette in a foot-long, bejeweled holder, explaining it was part of her costume. To get a feeling of the manners and morals of the 20s, the pixiefaced actress studied five or six movies a week—-all of them based on the era. ■ —"" “Any way you look at it, "Die Roaring 20s’ is a big improvement over wearing boots and a parka in the old series,” she concluded. Propose Surtax On Gross Income Tax INDIANAPOLIS (UPD—The Indiana Legislative Advisory Commission accepted for inclusion in its annual report to the 19*1 Legislature a proposal that a gross income tax surtax be levied to raise 34 million dollars a year for state aid to schools. x The commission accepted the recommendation of the Indiana School Boards Association without actually voting on whether to approve it. Jesse E. Sheets, legislative chairman of the association, outlined the proposal, which calls for a one-fourth of one per cent surtax, the income to be earmarked exclusively for schools. Commission members also asked Rep. William G. Bray of Indiana’s 7th District to determine if 1,000 acres of Camp Atterbury may be purchased by the state as a site for a penal center advocated by the Penal Institutions Study Committee. ./ Commission members accepted a proposed measure changing the beginner driving permit law so that graduates of school driver education courses would- not be discriminated against. But a plan to set a 40-mile speed limit on unimproved roads was sent back to the Traffic Safety Study Commission on grounds that it looked a method of posting the speeds and therefore would be valueless. ;■ Bluffton Man Held On Assault Charge Robert Stewart. 22. Bluffton, was lodged in the Wells county jail Sunday night on a charge of assault and battery, after starting a quarrel and fist fight with Eugene McDonald, 34. of Decatur. He was apprehended at the Bluffton Drive-in theater by Sheriff Raymond Durr and held in lieu of 81,006 bond.

Sen. Johnson Might Accept Second Place WASHINGTON (UPD — Sen. Lyndon B. Johnson (Texas) left no doubt today that he is readv to take his record and fight it out with all comers for the Democratic presidential nomination in Los Angeles next week. If the Johnson forces were impressed by the apparent lead of Sen. John F. Kennedy (D-Mass.), there was no sign of it as their long-planned campaign ro are d into the open with Johnson’s formal announcement Tuesday of his candidacy. Johnson’s announcement, how-1 ever, left political circles buzzing on one point ■ — his refusal to close the door on accepting the vice presidential nomination. Voiee* No Interest—But Those closest to the 51-year-old Johnson have long felt that >t would have to be the top spot dr nothing for him. He was reported to regard his present job as Senate majority leader as more important than the vice presidency. Under questioning at his news conference, Johnson twice refused to flatly exclude himself as a vice presidential possibility, although he voiced no open interest in it. While Johnson’s move left his well-organized lieutenants a freer hand with which to operate at Los Angeles and elsewhere, it left the Kennedy forces unruffled, openly at least. Hope For Deadlock A spokesman for Sen. Stuart Symington <I>Mo.), the third avowed candidate, said Johnson’s statement made it more important for Symington’s delegates to hold fast until a deadlock develops. A convention deadlock is Symington’s only apparent hope. His forces contend that the final choice will lie between the Missouri senator and Adlai E. Stevenson, the 1952 and 1956 nominee.— ' In his announcement, Johnson made It clear that he would base his fight against the younger Kennedy on the need for “seasoned" leadership in the world. And on the argument that the Democrats need a proven leader who can unite the party and “get things done.” South African Paper Attacks Government CAPE TOWN, South Africa (UPD — A major South African newspaper openly attacked the government today for keeping 1,600 persons in jail for three months without charges or court appearances. The Cape Times noted that it has been exactly 100 days since the white government proclaimed a state of emergency. The government took the action when racial violence broke out after police at Sharpeville, near Johannesburg, shot and killed 67 demonstrating natives and wounded nearly 200 others. The government jailed hundreds of persons considered opposed to its white supremacy policies and although it has begun lifting the state of emergency gradually none of the detained persons has been released. “We shall probably never know why 1,600 citizens have been incarcerated for more than three months without charges being preferred and without access to a lawyer,” the Cape Times said. The newspaper even criticized the treatment of 'David Pratt, a wealthy white farmer arrested in connection with the attemped assasslnaton of Prime Minister Hendrik Verwoerd. For a while South African police refused to let newspapers print his name. "Why has he been locked up for three months and prevented from seeing a lawyer,” the newspaper asked editorially. > Youth Arrested For Running Stop Sign Alvin E. Hackman, 19, 226 N. Ninth street, was arrested by city police Tuesday after he ran the stop sign at Nuttman avenue and Thirteenth street. Hackman will appear in city court July 11 at 10 a.m. • District Assembly Os Nazarenes At Marion Dr. Hugh C.
