’•MB Chief Grover Odle Police Chief Speaks To Northwest PTA The Northwest elementary school parent - teachers association met Thursday evening and after a brief business meeting, heard local police chief Grover Odle, who spoke on bicycle safety. Chief Odle stressed the fact that children children on bicycles should be taught rules of safety by their parents, and that parents are responsible for their child's behavior on a bicycle. An interesting question and answer session was held, and licensing of bicycles were discussed. Chief Odle said he favored licensing bicycles for several reasons. He explained that by doing this, it would be easier to trace the owner of n stolen bicycle that Is recovered, and automobile drivers who have a problem with bicycle riders, could take the youth's number and report the violation to the police department. Bill Spice, district executive of the Limberlost Boy Scouts, also spoke at the meeting, urging parents to become active in the various scouting programs. Before conclusion of the meet* Ing, P. T. A. Jim Borchers said he would form a committee to help solve the bicycle problems.

Meet Here Monday To Sew Leia Bags AU Decatur area ladies who would like to help the patients at the Fort Wayne school for the retarded by sewing simple, easy Leia bags for the more than 1,300 ladies there are asked to meet at the First Methodist church at 1 p.m. Monday, Mrs. Carl Gerber chairman of the sewing committee for the Adama county mental health association, announced today. Mrs. Dan Tyndall and Mrs. Charles Foughty will instruct the ladles on sewing the Leia bags, which patients badly need for use to carry their personal things with them. The Adams county group has already sewed 300 this year, but nearly 1,000 more are needed. All material for the simple bags is provided by the local mental health association, Mrs. Gerber explained. The sewing is so simple that it is only necessary to be able to sew a reasonably straight seam. The project is just one of the many ways that local people can help those less fortunate who are mentally retarded and residents of the Fort Wayne school. The* group includes both males and females from school age up into the 90’s and present occupational therapy is trying to help the patients become, through education, able to take care of themselves, and work to earn a living outside the* school grounds.

Largest Rail Merger Is In Effect Today ROANOKE, Va. (UPD—The Norfolk and Western Railway Co. (N&W) tripled its mileage today in the largest rail merger in history. The new 7,800 mile system threatened to overtake the Southern Pacific as the biggest money maker in rails. A car buyer in Dixie, a poultry raiser in the East, and housewives in the Midwest and India are expected to gain. “This merger will benefit the consumer,” said the Norfolk and Western officials here. The new $1.9 billion system expects to save $25 million annually tjy eliminating old interchanges and other duplication. It means in one haul, grain can be picked up in Omaha, Neb., and delivered to the grain elevators at the port of Norfolk or to an Eastern Seaboard chicken farmer. In one haul, cars can be piggybacked from Detroit, Mich., to a giant distribution center at Winston-Salem, N.C. In ont haul, coal can be loaded at a West Virginia mine and delivered to a utility or industrial firm in the Midwest. The merger could spell trouble for barges hauling grain among the Tennessee River and truckers in the East, however. “Our bid for greater efficiency and taster service is sure to be followed by similar consolidations throughout the country,” said Herman Pevler, 61, president of the N&W. Six roads were merged today. The net income of the three biggest topped SB6 million a year ago. Last year the Southern Pacific reported a net income of SBB million. The Norfolk and Western merged its 2,743 mile system with the Nickel Plate, a 2,170 mile line. The merger was through an exchange of stock, one Nickel Plate share for .45 shares of Norfolk and Western common. The Norfolk and Western leased the 2.432 mile Wabash with an option to purchase. Rent tor the first six years would be $7,125,000 annually and from the seventh year would equal the dividends of <75,000 shares of N&W common. f At 12:01 a.m. EST today, the N&W paid the Pennsylvania $27 million for the 110-mile Sandusky line, a connecting link between the N&W and the Nickel Plate. Other steps involved the purchase of the Akron, Canton and Youngstown Railroad for $6.5 million and the lease of the Pittsburgh and West Virginia for $915,000 annually.

Local Lady Attends I Vassar Inauguration Miss Frances Dugan, of Decatur, representing the class of m 2 at Vassar, is one of a groufl expected to attend the Inaugural tton this afternoon of Alan Simpson as the seventh president of Vassar. The British-born and Oxfordeducated Simpson put his finger on the frustrations troubling American women and their educators, In his inaugural address. “We are still in the midst of an Unfinished revolution m the status of women,” he said. “It was in its infancy when Vassar opened; in its adolescence with the suffragettes. Il will be in its maturity a century or so from now.’* His inaugural address followed an academic procession of delegates from more than 300 American and foreign colleges, universities and learned societies. The line also included representatives of alumnae clubs in all parts of the nation and of former Vassar classes beginning with 1899. More than 1,000 guests witnessed Simpson’s induction by John Wilkie, Chairman of the Vassar board of trustees. Also taking part in the ceremony were Miss Katharine McBride, president of Bryn Mawr College, speaking for the women’s colleges; Mrs. Henry H. Villard of New York City, chairman of the inauguration committee; George Beadle, president of the University of Chicago; Professor Charles Griffin of the Vassar faculty; Herbert Nicholas, fellow of New College, representing the University of Oxford; and W. Allen Wallis, president of the University of Rochester, speaking for American colleges and universities. Oldest institution The oldest institution represented was the University of Oxford, chartered in 1214. The youngest was Dutchess Community College in Poughkeepsie. Among the representatives of educational institutions here and abroad were 81 college presidents, 31 deans, and 27 college trustees or board members. Simpson was formerly dean of the college and Thomas E. Donnelley professor of history at the University of Chicago. An authority on the Puritan era of British and American history, he is the author of several books on the subject. In 1952 he won the university’s Quantreli award for excellence in undergraduate teaching. He will continue to teach at Vassar, giving a course next semester in Revolutions in 17th Century England, for advanced history students. He began his teaching career in 1938 at the University of St Andrews in Scotland as senior lecturer in Modern British history and American history. Following World War 11, during which he served for five y;ars with the royal artillery, Simpson migrated to the University of Chicago in 1946 and became an American citizen in 1954. He succeeds Miss Sarah Gibson Blanding, who retired last June after 18 years as Vassar’s only woman president. One of the best known women’s educational institutions, the Poughkeepsie college was founded in 1861 by Matthew Vassar, a native of England who prospered ih America. It was the first adequately endowed U. S. college for women offering an education equal to that available to men. In a century, Vassar has grown from a 200-acre campus with three buildings, 353 students and a faculty of 30 to its present 950 acres with 77 buildings, over 1600 students, 170 faculty members, and an endowment with a book value of S3B million. It has over 20,000 living alumnae. Indiana Farmer Dies In Tractor Mishap EVANSVILLE, Ind. (UPD - Henry T. Mosley, 35, R.
