Losses Are Suffered In Aufo Insurance CHICAGO (UPI) — Auto insurance firms have suffered a loss of $31.20 for every SIOO of premium under the assigned risk plan in Indiana for the last five years, a study released today by the Insurance Information Institute showed. “For the last five years,” the report said, “premiums earned on the assigned risks in Indiana totaled $1,367,688 for bodily injury and property damage liability insurance. Claims and other expenses amounted to $1,793,863 for the same five years. Losses absorbed py insurance firms on the assigned risks during the five-year period totaled more then $426,000. “The answer . . s is not to require the insurance companies . . . to subsidize the mayhem and , destruction of the very worst drivers, but to take away their driving privileges,” the institute said. “Autoticenseßranch" Profits To Parly , INDIANAPOLIS (UPl'—Democratic State Chairman Manfred Core sajd today auto license branch profits in a third county will be collected temporarily by the state headquarters in order to get past due delegate assessments. He said Joe McGowan has been replaced by Jennie M. Baker as manager of the downtown Kokomo license branch. McGowan formerly was Howard County Democratic Chairman. - ■■■ and was succeeded by Robert Ford. Both men are from Kokomo. Core said the Howard County Democratic Committee owes the state “about $6,000” in delgate assessments and that the profit from the. down town branch will be turned over to the state until this assessment is paid. He said Mrs. Baker, who formerly was bookkeeper at the Kokomo southside branch, is willing to operate the downtown branch under this arrangement. Core earlier took similar action in Marion and Madison Counties. He explained that the branch managers in all cases faithfully paid the regular four-cent per plate charge to the party coffers, but that the current debt collection campaign was for money owed by the county Democratic committees and not by. the branches themselves. He estimated the profit per transaction of a license to be “about 10 to 12 cents.” Asked if new managers were also to be named in Lake County, Core replied, ‘at present, I contemplate no change in Lake County.” Trade in a good town — Decatur.

Stars To Appear On March Os Dime Show By VERNON SCOTT . *UPI Hollywood Correspondent HOLLYWOOD (UPI) — How’s this for an all-star television cast: Bing Crosby, Dean Martin, Dick Powell, Dick Van Dyke, Pearl Bailey, Richard Chamber, lain, Juliet Prowse, Cara Wil.liafns and Connie Stevens. These stars and many others' will be seen during the month of January on approximately 500 stations in the annual March of Dimbs show. Titled “Once Upon A this season’s “special” cost the charity organization only , SIOO,000. If it had been produced by a commercial sponsor and beamed via network video the cost would have been among the highest in' television history. Because it is syndicated the show will be seen at different hours and on different days across the country. - Three-Week Period ‘ It was filmed in advance over a three-week period in Hollywood with each Star performing independently of the others, with a few exceptions. Only Bing, Chamberlain and Jane WyStt plug ti jthe fund campaign. Edward , Franck, an executive with the March of Dimes, said the hour-long film will be destroyed at the end o;f January in keeping with agreements signed with the guilds and unions involved. > . “If we. didn’t destroy the film the. stars would be overexposed aqd the, show Would be telecast over, and over again,” Franck explained. “We 'feel that a show with a group of celebrities such as these helps the morale of the volunteers who' raise money for the fund all year long. It also encourages -people to give, but there is no direct way for u§ to determine how mqgh more the show brings in. “We checked the' results one year in a West Virginia city the day after the television show was on the air, and founcl that contributions were so heavy we had to send in extra help.” Not “Hard Sell” According to Franck the show is, not a “hard sell,” but rather an integrated pitch based on entertainment. “As in the past three years the stars appear for union scale salary,” Franck went on. “20th Century-Fox Studios provided the Sets and stages free of charge and the individual stat io n throughout the country are denat I ing the air time to the project.'
