Defense Unity Difficult
ACCORDING TO a report In News-Week, Wayne Coy has “found co-ordination of defense agencies as difficult as lassoing a herd of plung{ing tanks” and now “does miscel- | laneous tasks.”
Inclined to agree somewhat with]
that, the young Hoosier OEM chief denied the News-Week conclusion that: “In recent months frustration and futulity have soured the Administrative assistants. An elite corps with presumably ready access to the President, some of them while away weeks without a summons to the White House. Others, desiring access there, have on occasion, had to appeal to higher-ups. “Acknowledging the breakdown of the idea for a staff of Presidential specialists, insiders predict that its own organization or dissolution is a matter of time.” Another Hoosier included in this coterie is Lowell Mellett. “I see the President whenever I have anything important enough for him to take a personal interest in,” Mr, Coy contended. He now is being mentioned as a {successor to James H. Rowe of the

addressed the National Institute of Municipal Law Officers at their convention last night. “The morale, discipline, confidence and will to win of a citizen army can never be greater than the amount of these qualities possessed by those at home,” he said. “The plain, unvarnished truth is that the morale of the Army, its fighting heart, its unity of purpose, its sacrifice in service and its devotion to a single purpose which should engage us all, is the shining light which all should follow in our defense effort.” Edward H. Knight, Indianapolis corporation counsel, led a discussion on the model provisions for licensing ordnances. James Deery, Indianapolis city controller, and Michael B. Redding, city attorney, also attended. Otto K. Jensen, State Examiner of Indiana, led a round table report on “State Experiences With Local Government Reporting.”
PURSE THIEVES ROB TWO MORE WOMEN
Purse snatchers were active on the streets again last night when two women reported they were assaulted and robbed. Miss Georgia Conley, 29, of 4501 N. Illinois St, said a man grabbed her, put his hands over her mouth and jerked her purse away at Blue Ridge Drive and Illinois St. Miss Alice West, 36, of 1835 Arrow Ave, said two men slipped up behind her, one of them grabbing her arms and the other taking her nurse which contained $6.

REDUCE COUNTS IN AUTO CASES
Officials Order Charges Consolidated as Aid To Disposition.
The number of charges contained in Municipal Court affidavits will be reduced' and consolidated in the future, enforcement officials and judges decided at a conference last night. Judge John L. Niblack announced that all arrests involving speeding and reckless driving will be reduced
to only the reckless driving count. “Speeding always is involved in reckless driving cases anwway, and eliminating the speeding charge will help save a lot of time for the court and clerks,” he said.
Consolidate Charges
Police Chief Morrissey and Prosecutor Sherwood Blue agreed to instruct all officers to eliminate duplications in charges whenever possible,
ing prisoners for trial on both vagrancy and drunkenness charges also will be stopped, they said. In the future such cases will be filed on only the drunkenness charge. “The other day there was a case in my court in which six charges had been filed,” Judge Niblack said. “The defendant probably was guilty of all of them but the case could have been handled more quickly and efficiently if the charges had been consolidated to eliminate duplications.” Pleas to Be Allowed
All officials agreed to continue the practice of permitting persons charged with speeding to appear and plead guilty and pay their fines without having to wait in court several hours for their trials. “There are some details of this procedure that will have to be readjusted but I think the plan can be made to work,” Judge Niblack said. Others attending the conference were Municipal Judge John I. MecNelis, County Clerk Charles R. Ettinger, Chief Deputy County Clerk Cletus Seibert and Deputy Prosecutors Wilbur Royse and Louis P. Yams.
MORNING FLIGHT TO DETROIT
A new morning flight from Indianapolis to Detroit will be inaugurated Monday by TWA, according to W. R. Bunker, district manager. Passengers may leave Indianapolis at 9:30 a. m., and be in Detroit at 1 p. m. Eastern Standard Time, with stops at Dayton at 11:16 a, m. (EST), and at Toledo at 12:26 p. m. (EST). The new schedule offers an early flight also to eastern cities. A change of planes at Dayton will land passengers at Washington, D. C., at 2:50 p. m. (EST); Philadelphia at 3:30 p. m,, and New York at 4 p. m,

Sonja decided it would be color this time,
She splashed it about with wild, rich and eye-hitting abandon and before she was done there was $72,000 worth of it.
_ An estimated crowd of 11,000 crowded into the Coliseum last night to see it. And there they gazed on an over-flowing parade of earthly rainbows as Sonja Henie's 1941 Hollywood Ice Revue opened for a seven-day stay. It will play here nightly through Thursday. Even when the great Ziegfeld was at his gibrious height as the “mad-man-genius of the show world,” he never went further to startle the eye. Sonja, for sure, has out-Zieg felded Ziegfeld. In the ice revue costuming, Indianapolis saw perhaps the most arresting spectacle here in many a year. Otherwise, Sonja’s show had all the variety and wide appeals that one expects from her. There was boogie-woogie and barcarolle . . . comedy and sheer beauty . . . “Chattanooga Choo Choo” . Tschaikowsky . . . DeBussy and “diggin'.” In ail, the pert, little Miss Henie skates in five numbers, three of them of the spetacle variety. Appearing first in the “Gay Parisienne,” set to Offenbach music, Sonja follows with a hula in “Isle of the Trade Winds.” She does her famous “Tango” as a part of the “Mexicana” number and delights the hearts of all as the happy Fairy Queen of the finale, “Make Believe.” As for showmanship, Sonja is still a master and on her fifth tour, she remains somewhat of a marvel as a combination ballerina and skater.
2000 OFFIGIALS END CONVENTION
Oppose Loss of Duties to State, Federal Agencies; Elect Officers.
More than 2000 members of the Indiana County and Township Officials Association returned home today after a three-day convention here in which they adopted resolutions opposing further concentration of powers in State and Federal agencies. Don O'Neill, Logansport, Cass County attorney, was elected president. William T. Ayres, Marion County Commissioner; Clarence E Baxter, of Tippecanoe County and Ruel Steele, of Bedford, were elected vice presidents. Dr. O'Dell Archer, of Clinton, was elected secretarytreasurer, succeeding Mark R. Gray, Indianapolis. The Indiana Trustees Association, largest of the 12 organizations comprising the officials’ association, reelected all officers for another year. They are John M. Doan, Decatur, president; Mrs. Frankie Helman, Gary; Fred Wissman, of New Haven: Charles Devlin, Brazil, and J. E. Smith, Sullivan, vice presidents, and Otto Walls, Knightstown, sec-retary-treasurer. Leo X. Smith, Indianapolis, was reappointed association attorney.
CAA TO TAKE OVER CONTROL UNIT HERE
The Civilian Aeronautics Authority will take over the operation of Airport’s aircraft control tower soon as part of national defense activities. Plans for the transfer were outlined by I. J. Dienhart, airport superintendent, before the Works Board yesterday. He said the CAA will use all the present personnel in operation of the tower and will maintain and purchase the equipment. “The actual transfer of operations will not become effective, however, for several months, pending passage of an appropriation by Congress,” he said. The transfer will save the City about $10,000 annually in maintenance costs.
COSTA RICA SHAKEN BY SEVERE QUAKE
SAN JOSE, Costa Rica, Dec. 6 (U. P.).—The worst earthquake in years shook Costa Rica at 2:50 p. m. (Indianapolis time) yesterday. Panic-stricken residents of San Jose rushed from their swaying homes into the streets. Bottles, ornaments and dishes were shaken to floors and smashed. Utilities were

A few minutes before the overture, the men’s dressing room was a scene of quick dressing and grease paint. And the boys were nervous, for last night was opening night here and there were a few added turns in the first number they hadn't tried before.

Color That Outdoes Ziegfeld Fealures Dainty Star's Newest Skating Spectacle
Of course, there are other stars in the revue and they get many rounds of applause. Twenty-year-old Eugene Turner, whom Miss Henie first saw on skates when he was 14, is her new partner now. He makes his first entrance in the third number in a solo exhibition of figure skating. And then there are the Swiss twins, Inge and Helga Brandt, two pretty girly who glide out with some of the finest skating of the evening. Fritz Dietl is back on his stilt skates and Geoffe Stevens, whom many have seen in other shows here as one of the “Four Bruises,” is the comedian. The 1941 revue opens on a patriotic note, with the choruses in a display of precision work. Following Mr. Turner's solo act, Irving Gregg is a very much befuddled and over-stimulated gentleman in “Three A. M.” Comes then a trio of stunt skaters in “On Wing of Steel,” jumping over rows of big balls, and then Sonja’s first entrance in “Gay Parisienne.” This one has all ingredients usually included in the ballet, the cancan dancers, the barcarolle and the waltz. Here the spectators get their first big splash of color as the French madamoiselles wave their skirts in the customary manner. The Brandt Sisters, decked out in blood-red jackets, and white shakos, put on a zestful act, Mr, Stevens is funny as “Monsieur le Major Domo” and the girls’ chorus does a beguiling number in hoopskirts called “Design in Dresden.” Each character moves apparently without stepping and the effect is one of the most novel of the evening. The richly-dressed “Isle of the Trade Winds” ends the first half of the show. It is a fantasy of the South Seas, with Sonja doing a hula. That is something new on ice.
8 8
The second act presents Sonja in two of her favorite guises, as the ballerina in “Clair de Lune,” with Debussy” music, and as Mr, Turner’s partner in her ever popular
“Tango.” Miss Henie has danced the tango here with a variety of partners and it never fails to be one of her'very best received numbers. Setting a precedent, maybe, the chorus gets an encore in “Tonight We Dance,” wherein the ladies are in flashing red formals and the men in tails. It is a velvety, sophisticated act.
And the same sort of smoothness is executed by the Brandi Sisters, again, in “Three Blue Notes,” with Peter Kilam making the third of the trio. But that’s not all. The choruses do a bit of jitterbugging in “Rhythm Time,” Mr. Dietl amazes the crowd again on his high skates, two boys and two girls are seen “Skating Around In Circles” and Mr. Stevens is the lead comic in “The Open Road.” Again in this one there is a new thing on skates, a midget. The finale, of course, is a smash. It's designed to appeal to all aged 1 to 100. All the characters of the childhood stories and a few more created by Walt Disney are present: Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, the Three Pigs, the Big Bad Wolf—and even a big, flappy-eared dog. Sonja herself is Queen of the Fairies.

Typical U. S. Family Uses Only Half Enough Milk, Poll Shows
By GEORGE GALLUP
Director, American Institute of Public Opinion
PRINCETON, N. J, Dec. 6.—One of the most difficult tasks of health and nutrition experts has always
been the problem of getiing people to consume more milk. Since 1916, Government health authorities have recommended at least one quart of milk per day for each child, and one pint per day for each adult. The American Institute of Public Opinion has just completed a nationwide survey to determine how much milk the average American family actually consumes today. The question of milk—as well as general diet as related to health— is of pressing importance in view of the high percentage of rejections from the selective service draft because of physical defects, and because of the enormous number of work days lost in defense industries on account of illness. The Institute’s survey reveals that, for the country as a whole the typical family consumes about half as much milk as the Government recommends for health. One half of all families in the United States, the survey indicates, consume 1.2 quarts or less per family per day. If the Government health recommendations were followed, these same families would consume over twice that amount. In the lower income groups—the families earning less than $25 to
less than half the amount recommended by health authorities. The low consumption of milk apparently does not arise entirely from igrorance of the amount that should be consumed. The survey found, for example, that 65 per cent of persons in families with one or more members under 21 years of age knew that one quart of milk or more a day for each child is the amount recommended by the government. In a second question, the survey found that 17 per cent of all families—or approximately 6 million families—say they have changed their diets in recent months almost entirely because of higher prices of food. Those who have reduced their living standard because of higher food costs have tended to cut out the very foods which the Government has been trying to get them to use. The principal items reduced because of costs, the survey shows, are meat, eggs and butter, milk, and fresh vegetables. In the low income groups, where 20 per cent indicated a reduced diet range because of higher food prices, the omission of foods rich in minerals and vitamins was particularly pronounced. Yet the Department of Agriculture has been concentrating its efforts to persuade families to consume more dairy products and green leafy vegetables, not less.
Claims Cure for Athlete's Foot
By Science Service CHICAGO, Dec. 6.—A cure for athlete's foot which stops itching immediately and leaves no stain on skin or clothing is announced by Dr. Edward Francis, medical director (retired) of the U, S. Public Health Service, in the current issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association here, Dr. Francis’ remedy consist of a mixture of three parts phenol and one part camphor which can be prepared by any pharmacist. He reports that the mixture is “non-irritating and may be painted between the toes several times a day. The sock may be replaced immediately without danger of corrosion.” Users are warned, however, that the preparation should not be applied to wet skin.
