SORORITY PLANS MEETING
Phi chapter, Alpha Omicron Alpha sorority, will meet at 2:30
This is another in a series of biographical sketches on Indianapolis realtors.
Ford Woods, a member and former director of the Indianapolis
‘| Real Estate board, believes in good
news. He takes good news to every board meeting, talks good news when business is mentioned and anticipates having still better news in the future. With reports to be heard every Thursday from committees handling the rentcontrol and priorities situations, the board meetings do not always Mr. Woods start: off happily. But every member knows there'll be a cheerful interlude when President Walter M. Evans says: ‘ ‘We will have the introduction of new members.” That’s where Mr. Woods comes in. He is chairman of the membership committee and he always has a new member to introduce, frequently two, and sometimes three or four. His weekly average for the year is a fraction more than two. And to any organization of business men whose ranks are depleted by war and whose dispositions have become frayed by regulations, the announcement of a new member is always good news. Mr. Woods never disappoints. Asked yesterday how the business news was, Mr. Woods replied: “The news is good most of the time and would be good all the time if I just had time to attend to my business, but how can I? When you came in I was talking over the telephone to the rental board. They tell me that a house of one of my clients which I know is worth $12,500 is not worth $100 a month, but must
rent for $80. There's nothing good about that, Otherwise, business is In substantiation of his optimism he produced records of 19 recent sales of residential properties, mostly on the North side. Three were in the $10,000 and up class and, only three involved less than $6000. “Yes, if we had any more business I don’t know what we would do,” he said as he glanced at an art gallery on the office wall containing photographs of something like 500 homes he had sold at various times. Although born in Indianapolis, Mr. Woods has not always lived here. He spent his boyhood in Ef-
|fingham, Ill, and was educated at
Culver and Purdue. He operated the Realtor Building Co. here from 1919 to 1925 and was in business from 1925 to 1932 in Biloxi and Jackson, Miss. When the bottom dropped cut of business he “came back home, for that’s the best place to go.” When he resumed business here he did so under the name of “Ford Woods & Co.” although he did not incorporate. The “& C9.” he says, lends prestige, and the lack of a charter makes it unnecessary to fill out stacks and miles of governmental red tape. Mr. Woods is opposed to government red tape and needless reports of any color. That “best news” Mr. Woods anticipates will be when his son, Cpl. David Woods of the 78th division headquarters company, comes back home and the two can begin building houses. Cpl. Woods, the only child of Mr. and Mrs. Woods, had; been football manager, then student relay manager and was in his senior year at Butler university when he was inducted before Pearl Harbor. “When he comes back we will resume building, both for ourselves and on contract for others,” he said. “Then maybe I. will have
time to play some golf.”
Judge Can't Find Statute On Youth's Dancing Tattoo
Juvenile authorities thought they had solved the problem of the tattooed youth who disrupted a whole school for weeks with the picture of a nude on his arm, but he is causing the same trouble again. Two months ago the 15-year-old youth was sent to juvenile court by school authorities who complained that they couldn't conduct classes so long as the boy wore the art work on his arm. Frankly baffled over what to do about it since tattooing is permanent and can’t be removed from the skin, Judge Mark Rhoads of juvenile court arranged to have a tattoo artist put clothes on the figure. The youth promised to have it
done and the forgotten. This week, however, the same complaints came back to juvenile authorities. Schocl officials and neighbors complained’ that the youth was attracting even more attention than before by giving special exhibits, flexing the muscles of his arms to give the figure simulated dancing gyrations. A. G. Cooley, juvenile court probation officer, has issued a summons for-the youth to appear in court next week to do some explaining and, furthermore, have some clothes tattooed on his arm or be confined in the detention home.
