MAKE GIFTS FOR

Even the First Graders Are At Work; 650 Busy at, School 45.

By EARL HOFF There's a lot of secret preparations going on in ‘Indianapolis grade schools to turn the tables on Santa Claus. ' Not that Santa will find his doorstep heaped with gifts on Christmas morning, but the children’s parents will. That’s turning the tables on Santa, because parents act as a go-between, informing Santa of how their children ‘have behaved and in some mysterious way, known only to fathers and mothers, letting him know that each youngster wants most for Christmas.

-In some schools, ton; youngsters are busy at work fashioning gifts for less fortunate children and for those in hospitals.

The gifts will be practical ones that can be used all year.

650 Make Gifts

There are 650 children busy at work at School 45, 2301 Park Ave., anxious that Mother and Dad won’t be forgotten Christmas morning. The little six-year-olds in the Primary Room have completed coloring artistic calendars and are weav-. ing hot pads for ‘the kitchen at home. " The 1A’s are designing colorful wrapping paper, clay paper weights and Christmas cards. ‘The second grade has been very busy, creating Christmas cards, plaques to hold hot pads, calendars and gift wrapping paper. The third grade is making book marks and covers for dads and woven hot dish pads and fiberboard hotplate holders for- mothers. Curtain tie-backs, bright colored pin trays and clay paper weights are keeping fourth graders busy. Muslin curtain tie-backs, fringed and colored with wax crayon, will be treated by the fifth grade pupils so the tie-backs will be washable.

Make Christmas Cards

The sixth grade is tackling Christ< mas cards inside of which ‘will be printed original poems. The: pupils also are making fringed table mats.

273 MACHINES STILL

The recount of votes in" 21 county races entered the fourth day today with 273 of the 366 machines used in the Nov. 5 election remaining to be counted. The largest single change since the recount started was noted yesterday as Mrs. Nellie-B. Downey, successful Republican candidate for Representative, picked up 10 votes in Wayne Township, 10th Precinct. She had been given 211 votes on the tally sheet, but the machine showed 221 votes. Other gains were by Judson H. West, Democratic candidate for the House, two votes in Ward 14, Precinct 3; Charles Lahrman, Demo-

of legal action. For the two Chicago bonding

members they will drop the entire affair if the injunction suit. which seeks to stop the sale is still pending on Dec. 24. | © The bonding houses, John Nuveen & Co. and Morris Mathr & Co, will not buy the bonds as long as there is a legal action pending, Arthur Hoffman, bonding house representative, informed the commission. Rests With Two Men As'M. K. Briggs, Republican commission member, opposes the transaction, the task of persuading the plaintiffs to withdraw the suit is up to. William G. Minor, Cannelton, chairman, and Edgar Miles, Corydon, member. The two men, with the commission’s attorney, Lew O’Bannon, are to confer with William Book, vice president of the Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce, and Todd Stoops, secretary of the Hoosier Motor Club, two of the organizations which filed suit, as’ soon as a meeting can be arranged. Anson Thomas, representative of

is a plaintiff, is attending the American Farm Bureau convention in Baltimore and will not return until Monday. Book ‘Willing to Listen’ Mr. Book said he was willing to listen to the commission members, but that unless some new facts were presented he would stand. by the]. suit. | He repeated the only reason his organization opposed the transaction was because it believed $959,000 was too much to pay for a bridge |- which cost $637,000 to build in 1929. Mr. Stoops said that he also was willing to listen, but “right now there isn’t any chance of getting me to drop the suit.” \ Mr. Stoops and Mr. Book contend |- that the purchase price should be around $500,000. Commission members say the bridge income is around $125,000 a year and that the toll revenues would pay off the bonds within 10 years and give southwestern Indiana a free bridge. They say that residents of the New Harmony area want the state to buy the bridge and can’t understand why Indianapolig organizations oppose it.

No Appropriation

If the New Harmony bridge transaction fails, it will leave commission members without funds for traveling expenses or per diem salaries since the commission : was

formed in 1939. There is no appropriation for the commission and the only way in Which the members can get their per diem of $10 or traveling expenses is through the sale or construction of a bridge. There have been no such transactions ‘since the commission was created and members have ' been making the trips from southern Indiana to Indianapolis for meetings at their own expense. They also have hired an attorney and an engineer who cannot be paid unless the New Harmony or some other bridge transaction is made.
