piano. Mrs. Clint Reed delighted the audience with her vocal rendition of southern-type folk songs. She was ably assisted by her husband on the classic guitar. Folk games, directed by the Rev. Elbert Smith, were enjoyed by the group. Mr. and Mrs. Russell Freed made arrangements for the evening’s program and Mr. and Mrs. Clark Mayclin assisted in serving refreshments to all present. ACES HIGH CLUB HAS MEETING '.... The Aces High club held a regular meeting in the home of Marvene Buuck Thursday evening. After a brief business meeting, pinochle was played, prizes going to Judy Wenger and Marge Harden. At the close of the evening, a delicious dinner was served by the hostess, assisted by po-hostess, Mary Alice Conrad. MRS. SHADY HOSTESS TO EVANGELINE CIRCLE Sixteen members of the Evangeline circle of the Zion United church of Christ met at the home of Mrs. Jack Shady recently. The lesson on Korea, presented by Mrs. Fred Isch, was taken from the book, “On Asia’s Rim." She concluded the lesson by showing some interesting slides picturing Korea. Following the business meeting, favors were made for the hospital, and refreshments were served by the hostesses, Mrs. Jean’Bedwell and Mrs. Jack Shady. FOLKLORE MUSIC TOPIC FOR RESEARCH CLUB Mrs. C. S. Martindill was hostess to the Research club Monday afternoon when a program was given on folklore music by Mrs. Milton Spence, program leader for the afternoon. After the reading of the collect by the members, the meeting was turned over to Mrs. Spence. She read a paper entitled, "American Folklore Music.” The ballad or folk song was the woiki’s first newspaper. It came into being as a sort of tabloid record of battles, adventures and scandals in the days when an illiterate communty depended for its news on the minstrels who roamed the countryside. The life of a folk song depends not upon print, but upon its appeal to children, because if the young don’t like what they hear their old folks sing, the song will be forgotten. Many of the folk songs for children are about animals. One of these songs, well known by children, is "Froggie Went A-courting.” Folk music may deal with certain types of work. There are the songs sung by the lumberjacks in the lumber camps, the songs sung by the sea-going men and the songs of the pioneers moving west.

ENGAGED— Mr. and Mrs. Hershel McCullough, route 1, Kempton, announce the engagement of their daughter, Marsha Elaine, to Robert Allen Heare, son of Mr. and Mrs. Ivan Heare, route 2, Decatur. Miss McCullough is a strident at the Methodist hospital school of nursing, Indianapolis. Heare, a graduate of Purdue University, is the vocational agriculture teacher i at Jefferson high school in Kempton. No date has been set for the wedding. Songs were sung about a particular locality and there is much about the mountains. It is to the mountain regions that song historians go now to try and find the original songs, so that this type of music might be preserved as it originally was sung. The American Negro’s misery and unhappiness found solace in singing, so some of the folk music has been found in their rich heritage of religious music. Folk singing was usually accompanied by a stringed instrument and anyone who could play and sing was a most welcome visitor. In fact, in cold weather he would be given the seat closest to the fireplace because of the enjoyment he would bring into the drab life of the people. Current events were given at the dose of the program, and plans were discussed for the year book for the ensuing year. Candies were passed by the hostess. The meeting March 4 will be in the home of Mrs. Mabel Schmitt at Biting Acres. MISSIONARY SOCIETY OF BAPTIST CHURCH MEETS The Missionary society of the First Baptist church met Monday evening in the auditorium of the church. Vice president, Mrs. Warren Lehman, opened the meeting with prayer. Roll was called, minutes read and approved; the treasurer’s report was read and accepted. Reports were given by the calling committee and a new committee was appointed. The women were urged to attend the world day of prayer to be held Mar<m 1, in the Zion United Church of Christ. A report on the Salamonie association meeting, which she attended last week, was given by Mrs. McQuaid. The Girls guild gave the devotions and presented the program. Miss Karen Daniels read the 96th Psalm and Mrs. Hugh Moyer led in prayer. The very interesting program presented was on India. Devotions closed the meeting with the group recltng the Lord’s Prayer. Refreshments were served by Mrs. Hope Moyer, Mrs. Thelma Pence, Mrs. Olin Stevenson, Mrs. Allen Lehman and Mrs. Cora Richord. They were assisted by the Girls guild. The Past Matrons club will meet Thursday at 7:30 p.m. with Mrs. Katharyne Nelson. * There will be a social meeting for the Adams unit 43, American Legion auxiliary, Friday at 8 p m.

Taxes Again Catch Up With Capones CHICAGO (UPI) — Taxes have caught up with the Capones again. The federal government Monday seized the cigarette vending business of Ralph (Bottles) Capone, big brother of Scarface Al Capone, the Chicago underworld king in the 19205. Federal Judge Joseph Sam Perry signed an order seizing Capone’s Suburban Cigarette Co. of Chicago to help satisfy a government tax claim for $223,000. The government presumably will have to collect and dispose of the vending machines to make the seizure pay off. Capone said he had machines located around Chicago and suburbs. In one of the nation's oldest current income tax cases, the government has sought to collect taxes and penalties on Capone's income for 1926 through 1928. A federal investigator once said, “When it comes to a Capone, we never give Up.” Bottles Capone served in his gangster brother’s shadow in the 19205. Internal Revenue Service agents said he shared in the loot of the bootleg beer and booze business. Ralph, who got his nickname for winning a beer-drinking con l test in Mercer, Wis., did a threeyear hitch for evading taxes from 1922 through 1925. After Capone got out of prison, the government demanded $5,662 in taxes for 1926 through 1928. Capone never paid off and the taxes, interest and penalties multiplied to almost a quarter of a million dollars. The only charge the federal government could ever pin on his notorious little brother Al was income tax evasion. Man Is Killed By Falling Tree Limb TAYLORSVILLE, Ind. (UPI) — Hugh L. St-aughn, 46, Edinburg, was killed Monday when struck on the head by a falling limb while trimming branches from trees. Authorities said he suffered a fractured skull and was dead on arrival at Bartholomew County Hospital at Columbus. REDS TO (Continued from Page One) The White House conference with congressional leaders followed bitter debate in the Senate over the administration's Cuban policy. Sen. Barry Goldwater, R-Ariz., ’ called for a total blockade of Cuba. Goldwater accused the administration of doing nothing to promote bipartisanship. This charge brought Mansfie’d to his feet with a denial. , Mansfield said Republican congressional leaders had been given 40 White House briefings on foreign policy in the last two years and added: “What we see this morning is a case of the pot calling the kettle black.” SEEKING (Continued from Page One) The districts in the bill are similar to those now in use but with some changes. Lake County, now with three senators, would have four; St. Joseph, now with one senator and sharing another with Marshall, would have two, as would Allen County which presently has one and shares one with Noble County.

MRS. LOIS OLINGER is director of the fifth district of Business and Professional Women’s clubs of Indiana. The district is composed of Bluffton, Decatur, Huntington, Marion, Montpelier, North Manchester, Wabash and Peru. Its annual district meeting will be held Sunday in Peru. A circus theme is being used since Peru is the circus capital of the world and the home of the circus city festival. Principal speaker will be Mrs. Lettie Trefz, state president. Some of the other highlights will be Art Johns, veteran circus artist, giving the history of the circus wagon and Tom Hodgini, member of the board of directors of the circus city festival, who will present movies of last year’s festival. Registration will start at 10:30 a. m. at the Knights of Columbus, 18 East 6th St., Peru. Vigo County, now with one senator and sharing another with Sullivan County, would have only a single senator, and Grant County, which now has one senator, would share that one with Wabash County. Wayne County would share its one senator with Union County.

BRAZIL (Continued from Page One) the Anzoategui before it reached the safety of Brazilian territorial waters Sunday night, received permission Monday to make port at Belem. It pledged to observe Brazilian neutrality. Medina Rojas has given repeated assurances that the 37-man crew of the Anzoategui is safe and its morale high. The rebels took over the 3,126ton government-owned freighter in the name of Venezuela’s Armed Forces of National Liberation (FALN).
